Chapter 161: Rolf caused trouble at Hogwarts?
"Howler letter?"
Dracula was stunned for a moment, thinking of the explosive red envelope that Ron Weiss received at the beginning of this semester.
‘Speaking of which, it’s really interesting that the culprit who caused the two of them to drive to school is now their assistant teacher. ’ Dracula thought happily.
When the thin owl was only a few feet away from Newt, it finally couldn't hold on anymore and fell from the air.
The vampire bat covered its face with its wings in annoyance, and then quickly flew downwards, trying to catch this big bird that was several times its size.
Fortunately, Newt did not forget to care for the animals even under the pressure of the roaring letter.
He took action first and used a slowing spell to slow down the owl's fall, then caught it and held it in his arms.
"It's really hard for you, good boy, you've been looking for me for so long."
Newt smoothed the wrinkled feathers on the owl soothingly, and then looked nervously at the red envelope with bulging corners, as if it was about to explode.
"What do you mean, do you want me to destroy it for you?" Dracula asked casually, "It's very simple, it's just a spell."
"Let's forget it." Newt sighed, but finally shook his head, "After all, it's me who forgot the time. It's normal for Tina to send me a yelling letter."
As he spoke, his frustrated look turned into a smile, "What's more, I've been alone outside for so long, and I still want to hear Tina's voice and what she has to say to me."
Is it possible to show affection in such an emergency?
Dracula glanced at Newt with a strange expression and silently took a few steps away.
Newt quickly stuffed the owl in his arms into his suitcase to prevent the weak owl from being frightened by the roaring letter again, and then opened the paint seal on the red envelope with trembling hands.
The next moment, a voice that sounded a bit old but full of energy sounded in Newt's room——
"Newton Artemis Fido Scamander, look at what you've done!"
Tina's voice recorded in the yelling letter directly called Newt's full name, and it was obvious that she was getting angry.
"Your son asked you to help take care of the child, but look what you did! Leaving Rolf alone in Hogwarts?! I now suspect that you did it on purpose! You didn't want to when Rolf first went to school. Let him come to my alma mater, Invermany, because I want him to go to the Hogwarts that expelled you."
"I don't know what's so good about that school. The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor changes every year. Can he teach the students well? It's just that the principal Dumbledore gave them a slight advantage, but our old friend in Yinfa Mori, You Isn’t Professor Lally Hicks good enough?”
After listening to Tina yelling at the words in the letter, Newt showed a somewhat embarrassed expression.
Ever since he sent Rolf back to Hogwarts with the portkey, he really forgot about his grandson...
This is because in Newt's opinion, Hogwarts is the safest place in the world as long as Dumbledore is around.
So he had no worries about letting Rolf stay at Hogwarts!
However, Tina didn’t think so:
"I think you did it on purpose to let Rolf experience life at Hogwarts. I don't know what kind of love potion this school gave him, but you actually made him write me a letter saying that he wanted to transfer to another school!"
After hearing this, instead of continuing to feel embarrassed, Newt showed an uncharacteristically happy smile.
"As expected of Hogwarts, well done!" Newt looked proud.
Dracula in the distance: "..."
I think you really have the idea of letting Rolf transfer to another school...
"Newt, you must be very happy now, right?" The next moment, Tina understood Newt's mood. "But don't be happy too early. Rolf has gotten into trouble at Hogwarts. It caused an assistant coach to have an accident.”
"I don't care about you two anymore. It's up to you to figure it out. Let's see how you give an explanation to the assistant teacher at Hogwarts!"
As the bulging red envelope gradually shriveled and burned, Tina's voice finally stopped.
Newt stood there blankly, not knowing what to say.
Dracula didn't know when he appeared next to Newt again, looking at the yelling letter that slowly turned into ashes with a strange expression.
"So... my teaching assistant was caused by the little wizard Luo Fe to have a teaching accident, so he had to take a period of rest?" He said in a weird tone.
Dracula didn't quite believe that the Horcrux diary, which had inherited almost all the memories of Voldemort's youth, would fall into the hands of a second-year wizard.
You know, when Tom Riddle first came to Hogwarts to go to school, because of his origin in the orphanage and his status in Slytherin College, he was often ostracized and dealt with by those careless purebloods.
Therefore, Riddle should be quite proficient in the subterfuge between students. Why shouldn't he be plotted by the grandson of the Scamander family?
Dracula glanced at Newt's dull, stiff face, and felt it was a bit incredible that this good old man had such a grandson.
"Did that little bastard Rolf kill the Defense Against the Dark Arts assistant?" Newt's face became even stiffer. "Don't worry, Professor Dracula, I will go to Hogwarts right away to teach Rolf a lesson." That boy!"
"There is no need to make such a conclusion before the matter is clear, Mr. Scamander." Dracula raised his hand to stop him and chuckled, "Maybe it was just an accident?"
A possibility suddenly emerged in his mind, thinking of Voldemort's curse on the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.
Could it be that when Riddle was acting as the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, he personally experienced the curse of his own soul?
…
Time goes back to more than a month ago, the day Rolf Scamander was just sent back to Hogwarts from Mount Olympus by his grandfather.
Holding the tie-shaped door key embroidered with gold patterns, Rolf appeared on a tall bridge made of marble.
Surrounding the bridge is an endless deep lake. The temperature in winter is very low, and most of the lake has been covered with thick ice without any fluctuations.
When Luofu raised his head in confusion, his heart was suddenly filled with boundless shock——
A tall and majestic castle stands under the sun, with traces of light shining from behind the clouds in the sky. The sun is half hidden behind the clouds, spreading red, orange and gold colors, adding a sparkling glow to the largest main tower. Golden light.
Each building and each spire has a simple and atmospheric atmosphere. Against the clouds and sunlight in the sky, it seems to have settled on Luofu's heart.
He looked at the end of the bridge where he was in amazement and saw a square, rectangular courtyard surrounded by a connected corridor.
[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I’ve known for ten years! It’s so easy to use. I rely on it to pass the time while driving and before going to bed by reading and listening to books. You can download it here ]
Where the bridge connects to the courtyard is a huge oak door.
When Rolf saw this amazing scene, he couldn't help but think back to the magic school in Scotland that he often mentioned to himself every time he went on adventures with his grandfather——
Hogwarts!
Newt would tell him about the towering and majestic main tower of Hogwarts, the splendid Great Hall, the spacious and open Quidditch pitch, the kitchen next to the Hufflepuff lounge, and the various... The Forbidden Forest of Fantastic Beasts and the Island on the Black Lake...
Perhaps after decades, even Newt had long forgotten some places, but these scenes of Hogwarts had already left a full impression on Rolf's heart.
"I can actually visit Hogwarts with my own eyes!" There was a hint of surprise in Roof's eyes.
Immediately, he opened his legs like a joy and ran towards the entrance courtyard of Hogwarts, wanting to enter the school that his grandfather praised so much and dreamed about.
However, as it is normal opening time, the oak door connecting the marble bridge and the entrance courtyard is firmly closed, with no sign of opening.
After all, this is not the main door of Hogwarts. It can only be regarded as a side door to welcome new students, and it is rarely open.
However, this can't stop Rolf Scamander, who aspires to become the greatest magizoologist in the future!
Rolf carefully looked around to make sure that his grandfather had not come to Hogwarts with him, then he reached into the inner pocket of his clothes and took out a green sphere.
The sphere looks like a green, spiny cocoon, but it's actually a Winged Demon that Rolf secretly brought out of his home.
"Leave it to you, little one." Luofu touched the green cocoon-like ball in his hand affectionately and whispered to it.
The next moment, the sphere suddenly unfolded, extending a pair of wings that were blue on the inside and green on the outside.
When it spreads its spiked wings, it looks like a weird big bird or a huge butterfly.
The Winged Demon flapped its wings and flew up, hovering over the lake on the side of the bridge.
Upon seeing this, Rove made a rather bold move——
He climbed onto the marble railing of the bridge, stood on the narrow railing, and stood quietly facing the cloister window on the side of the oak door.
The Winged Demon was still circling, flying past Luo Fu's eyes from time to time.
Luofu took a deep breath, suddenly jumped up from the railing, and jumped straight into the air, as if the next moment he would fall from the high air and fall onto the hard ice of the winter lake. He would die even if he didn't die. The result of serious injury...
However, this scene did not appear.
Even if the Winged Demon has been hovering in the air, it can very accurately appear at the landing point of Rolf at the moment he takes off, giving him a support.
Then, Rolf used this power to jump into the window of the corridor in the entrance courtyard of Hogwarts.
"Well done, little one!"
Luofu gave a thumbs-up sign to the curled-winged demon who had achieved great success, and then happily walked out of the corridor and walked into the entrance courtyard.
He has now officially entered Hogwarts!
In fact, under normal circumstances, entering Hogwarts is not as simple as Rove, just jump to the side of the bridge.
He was able to enter Hogwarts because of the golden patterned tie in his hand, which was the door key made by Dumbledore.
In fact, as early as the later stages of the Global Wizarding War, as Dumbledore continued to confront the dark wizard Grindelwald, his reputation also increased.
Therefore, during the period when Armando Dippet was the principal, Dumbledore became the deputy principal of Hogwarts early and had partial authority over Hogwarts Castle.
Whenever Dumbledore made a portkey for the team members who resisted Grindelwald, he would use the relevant permissions of Hogwarts Castle, so that the portkey could directly enter the range of Hogwarts's guardian spell. , thereby reducing the risk to members.
The door key in Luo Fu's hand directly led him to break through the outer protective magic and teleported him to the inside of the protective spell.
So Rolf entered Hogwarts Castle with a couple of casual jumps.
However, even after entering Hogwarts Castle easily, Rolf's eyes darkened again...
He had no idea about the geographical structure of the castle, and he had no idea which direction he should go, so he could only wander around in the entrance courtyard in a hurry.
At this moment, Luofu saw three young wizards who seemed to be about the same age as him walking over, and his eyes lit up.
"Hello, I'm a second-year student. I would like to ask how to get to the Hufflepuff lounge." Rolf lied without blushing or heartbeat.
He thought carefully for a while, and finally decided to visit the common room that his grandfather often mentioned.
"Are you really a second-year student?" Among the three little wizards, two boys and one girl, the little witch with messy hair and long front teeth questioned, "You have been at Hogwarts for a year and a half. How come you still don’t know how to get to the lounge?”
"Maybe... I'm usually a little forgetful, right?" Luo Fu's eyes rolled around and he found an excuse very quickly.
The two little wizards next to the little witch are easy to identify. One has messy hair, round glasses and green eyes, and the other has flaming red hair and dense freckles on his face.
After hearing Luofu's explanation, both of them looked enlightened.
"Hermione, what are you suspecting? It should be normal for Hufflepuff students to be forgetful, right?" the red-haired boy said carelessly, "You see Neville is often forgetful, and he was almost sorted. To Hufflepuff."
‘So it turned out that I really hit the mark by accident? Are Hufflepuff wizards really prone to forgetfulness? ’ A surprised expression appeared on Luofu’s face.
But his grandfather is not forgetful either?
At this time, another green-eyed boy wearing round glasses couldn't help it anymore. He took a step forward and was about to point the direction of the Hufflepuff common room to Rove.
However, it was the little witch with long teeth and messy hair who grabbed the boy.
"Wait a minute, Harry, I always feel something is wrong." Hermione frowned and stared at Rolf, "We are also second years, and we often go to class with Hufflepuff, why don't I have any impression of him? Moreover He's not wearing Hufflepuff uniform yet!"
"Are you a student from another house who wants to sneak into Hufflepuff?" she asked suspiciously.
Luo Fu was a little embarrassed by her stare, and quickly explained: "My sense of existence has always been relatively low, and it is normal not to be noticed by others."
"As for not wearing hospital uniform..." He put his entire arm into a small bag he carried with him, patiently looking for something.
After a while, Rove finally took out a black and yellow scarf, which was a gift from Newt on his birthday.
"Found it! I have Hufflepuff's scarf, so there should be no problem!"
Fortunately, the uniforms and scarf styles of Hogwarts have not changed for hundreds of years, so there is no possibility of revealing Newt's secrets when Rove takes out Newt's scarf.
"Is that so?" Hermione's eyes were still a little suspicious.
However, because she was almost late for the next class, the studious Hermione quickly told Rove the approximate location of the Hufflepuff common room that she knew, and then pulled Harry and Ron and rushed towards the teaching area. go.
Although the little witch is indeed very smart, she never imagined that a Yinfamorny student would suddenly sneak in at Hogwarts, let alone that this Yinfamorny student also had a former Hutch Grandpa of Patch's loyal student!
…
After getting the specific location of the common room, Rolf happily walked in from a staircase on the side of the entrance courtyard and walked to the basement level of the castle.
Then, he walked along the long corridor and came to a pile of large wooden barrels placed on a dark stone trough.
This is the entrance to the Hufflepuff common room.
Next, Rolf got into trouble...
In what Newt had told him about Hogwarts, there was no mention of a way to enter the Hufflepuff common room!
In view of the excellent virtues of loyalty and diligence among Hufflepuff students, no Hufflepuff student will reveal the method of entering here to others, not even their own descendants!
Because there is no evidence that Hufflepuff's children will definitely enter Hufflepuff House.
Because of this, the Hufflepuff common room is the only common room that has not been seen by anyone outside Hufflepuff House for more than a thousand years, making it the safest of all common rooms. of a room.
However, Luofu didn't believe in evil. He patted the barrel aimlessly a few times, wanting to hear if there was any hollow place, and he also looked for the entrance here.
At the same moment when Luofu's hand hit the barrel, the lid of the other barrel next to him suddenly burst.
Luo Fu's body was filled with vinegar in an instant.
Luofu: "..."
Why is there a penalty for knocking the wrong barrel here?
This anti-intrusion magic stopped Rolf from trying to enter on his own.
He couldn't think of any other way, and he didn't want to miss the wonderful lounge that his grandfather said, so he gritted his teeth and sat aside with a sour taste.
Rolf has to wait for the other Hufflepuff wizards to come back and open the door for him!
