·
Liu Yue Zhi Yuan Fei
Hermione was about to say something, but was interrupted by Douglas.
"Miss Brown, can I ask under what circumstances did Professor Trelawney make the prophecy for you?"
"Uh!"
Everyone didn't quite understand what Douglas meant, and Hermione also looked at Douglas suspiciously.
Although Lavender didn't understand, he still thought about it and said:
"When we first started our Divination class, Professor Trelawney asked me to bring her the cup, and she casually said that the thing you're most afraid of - it will happen on Friday, October [-]."
Douglas nodded when he heard the words, and then said with a regretful expression:
"I'm afraid Miss Brown guessed wrong, the thing that makes you sad today is not the news of your rabbit's death, but the fact that I'm about to give you a two-foot homework because you've done so poorly in this class ...Of course, the other students are still at least ten inches."
When the students heard what Douglas said, they all looked at Lavender with sympathy.
When Lavender heard the news, he was stunned for a moment, and then he suddenly seemed to be choking on his own saliva and coughing continuously.
Douglas shrugged and said:
"Obviously, this incident made you even more upset."
Hermione suddenly raised her hand high, and after getting Douglas' consent, she said doubtfully:
"But professor, Professor McGonagall said before that divination is the least rigorous branch of magic, and there are very few real prophets. She seems to think that Professor Trelawney...
By the way, she had previously predicted that Harry would die this term, and obviously we knew that wasn't going to happen..."
Hermione looked carefully at Douglas after speaking.
Ron patted Harry on the shoulder excitedly and said:
"Professor, it's clear that Harry is strong!"
At this time, whether they believe in Trelawney's students or not, they all looked at Douglas, wanting to hear what the professor had to say, after all, the other party predicted that his nephew would die.
But the corner of Douglas' mouth twitched unconsciously.
If he was a student, he would definitely criticize the divination professor mercilessly.
At the beginning, he heard that Divination is the best combination of credits, so he signed up. As a result, in the first class, he became the one who was predicted to die in that class.
As a professor, he would definitely not complain about his colleagues in front of the students, not to mention that the professor is not incompetent at all.
First of all, Sybill Trelawney's ability to pretend to be a ghost is indeed very confusing. Douglas speculates that it should come from the family inheritance.
After all, not every generation of the Trelawney family has inherited the blood of the real prophet Cassandra Trelawney. Over the centuries, their family must have studied a set of prophetic attire and speaking skills that suit them .
For example, in today's Lavender incident, she hinted very early on that Lavender would have something to worry about today, so as long as anything happened today that made Lavender unhappy, she would subconsciously think of Terry. Launie's words, thus amplifying the emotions.
Many times, students will be hit by Professor Trelawney's sudden predictions, but most of the time she is bragging and self-inflated. The so-called predictions are not accurate at all. This was tested by Douglas himself.
On the other hand, Trelawney did inherit the blood of a true prophet, and would always make important predictions when she was unconscious. Afterwards, she had no memory of making such predictions at all.
The most important point is that each of these real prophecies is aimed at major events that affect the magic world, and small personal things are not worth prophesying to appear at all.
Douglas once heard a real prophecy when he gave Trelawney a thank-you gift when he was graduating, and that prophecy didn't happen until the system appeared, and then he decided to return to Hogwarts. Understand most of the meaning of that prophecy.
At that time, he sent a gift to Trelawney, who was hiding in the attic office all the year round in Hogwarts...
Douglas, who came back to his senses, looked at everyone and said seriously:
"Divination is a good course for credits, and it is more about teaching you the interpretation of human nature and the environment.
For example, it's Defense Against the Dark Arts class now, but you are pestering me to ask about divination, for this situation, what kind of predictions can you make..."
Hermione was the first to react, and she blushed immediately, because it was her class representative who took the lead in asking questions, so she hurriedly called the students to practice the spell quickly.
The students who came back to their senses suddenly looked a little ugly. What can this situation predict, they must add homework.
After hearing what Douglas said, Lavender seemed to be in a better mood. After all, punishing everyone to do it together is a good classmate.
After class, Douglas was stopped by Professor McGonagall on the steps back to the office.
"Douglas, you signed the permission form for Potter to go to Hogsmeade. It seems that you are not Mr. Potter's guardian, right?"
Douglas looked around, then smiled and said:
"It's really not. You also understand Harry's situation. Cousin Petunia will definitely not sign this, but as Harry's godfather, Sirius is qualified to sign this. If you need, I can let Xiao Sirius re-signed."
Professor McGonagall shook his head and said:
"Let's forget it, Sirius is not suitable for the time being, as long as I know about it.
I have another thing I've always wanted to ask, are you not worried that the traitor will find out and escape if you catch mice in such a big way? "
Douglas thought, I just have to let him go, but said:
"My medicine works well, and I've given that cage to Ron."
Professor McGonagall nodded and secretly breathed a sigh of relief. These days, she often went to the Gryffindor common room to check her bed at night.
In order to let the other party know that I will go every day, every time I enter the boys' dormitory, I will find some reasons and reprimand some students loudly.
At the same time, he was worried that Pettigrew found himself staring at him, and Professor McGonagall couldn't find Ron to check on his pet alone, so he didn't know what the cage had been arranged for.
Finally, when Douglas left, Professor McGonagall stopped him again, walked up to him and whispered:
"If you don't find a chance to let Sirius walk around the campus in the form of animagus, instead of staying in your office all day, it will be boring."
Looking at Professor McGonagall's concerned eyes, Douglas said helplessly:
"Professor, you should know what happened between him and Professor Snape. I'm worried that he won't be able to control himself after seeing Professor Snape, but I have promised him that I will take him with him during the Gryffindor match." Go and see..."
Professor McGonagall sighed helplessly when he heard Snape.
But when she hears about the Gryffindor game, Sirius will go to see it, she seems to have the illusion of going back in time...
"Miss Brown, can I ask under what circumstances did Professor Trelawney make the prophecy for you?"
"Uh!"
Everyone didn't quite understand what Douglas meant, and Hermione also looked at Douglas suspiciously.
Although Lavender didn't understand, he still thought about it and said:
