Chapter 24 Professor Holmes' First Patrol
·
Liu Yue Zhi Yuan Fei
Time soon came to Wednesday.
The whole atmosphere of the school these two days has been abnormal.
The tension that should have appeared in fifth and seventh graders.
Under the pressure of Douglas's non-Hogwarts traditional curriculum.
Ravenclaw students feel that their position as the top school is threatened by Gryffindor and Slytherin.
Obviously, it was meal time, and there were always some Gryffindor and Slytherin students reciting aloud in the dining room with their textbooks.
And recite a sentence, the two sides look at each other with hatred.
It seems that after reading the sentences describing boggarts, resurrected zombies, and vampires, those creatures will be summoned to attack each other.
The Ravenclaw students were at the middle table.
While carrying the textbook in his hand, he whispered to the person next to him where the book was memorized.
Some of the Gryffindor and Slytherin students read it wrong, and the Ravenclaw students will kindly remind them.
The students of the two colleges who were glaring at them were embarrassed for a moment, glanced at the textbook, and continued to recite angrily.
The Hufflepuff students were drinking pumpkin juice, watching a play, and looking at their textbooks.
I used three things at once, but I didn't remember anything after I finished my meal.
Fortunately, this situation only occurs in the lower grades in the restaurant.
The fourth and fifth graders who haven't taken Douglas's class are taking the test questions from Ravenclaw and Gryffindor.
Silently recite the above answers.
The students who have already passed the test are smirking at those who are working hard to recite the answers to the test questions.
Regardless of the relationship between the four colleges.
They wouldn't tell other colleges that Douglas gave different questions to each grade and college.
When they answer the questions with confidence, they will find that none of the answers they memorized match up.
Aiming at the current abnormal learning atmosphere in the school.
The deans didn't interfere too much, after all, academic competition is better than a duel with a wand.
They even wonder if their own subjects can be learned in this way.
After all, the recitation of basic knowledge is really important.
……
These two days, Douglas has not been idle.
The seventh grade of Defense Against the Dark Arts was originally on Friday.
He was summoned in advance.
They arranged for them to transform several empty classrooms according to Douglas' request.
All the contents of the magic reform were kept secret from the students below the seventh grade.
During this period, Professor McGonagall also came to inspect once.
After confirming that the contents arranged by Douglas are all within the controllable range, they will no longer channel Glass's affairs.
……
After class on Wednesday night.
Douglas brought the gift he had prepared.
Came to Filch's office behind the marble steps in the lobby.
As soon as I entered the door, I smelled a damp and decaying smell.
Argus Filch is the caretaker of Hogwarts.
Basically, in the eyes of everyone, he is a very bad tempered and annoying person.
But as the castle administrator, he is very conscientious.
He also has a cat named Mrs. Norris, which is almost all his spiritual sustenance.
As a person who also likes to smoke cats, Douglas can be said to be the only student who can be tolerated by Filch during his school days.
Of course, all of this is the result of Douglas' management.
As a modern youth who has experienced severe beatings in society.
He is well aware that in many places, mingling with some low-level people often has extraordinary effects.
So during school, others took the initiative to avoid Mrs. Norris' inspection.
But he chose to look for Mrs. Norris, relying on the experience of raising cats in the Muggle world and the advantages of the Hogwarts kitchen.
Step by step, he became the only student in Hogwarts who would receive preferential treatment in confinement at Filch.
Even when he got lost in the castle, as long as he consumed a piece of dried fish, he would get the friendly help of Mrs. Norris.
After letting Douglas through the door, Filch snorted coldly and did not speak.
Douglas was not embarrassed at all, and opened the gift in his hand directly.
It was a jar of catnip cream he had mixed.
He approached the mouth of Mrs. Norris, who was in Filch's arms.
"Oh, I haven't seen Mrs. Norris for several years, do you still know me?"
Mrs. Norris sniffed it, then stuck out her tongue and licked it in enjoyment.
After Filch saw this scene, he couldn't help but keep pulling his face:
"I thought the famous Mr. Holmes had forgotten me, the humble administrator."
Douglas hugged Mrs. Norris directly from Filch's arms, and explained embarrassingly:
"How could I forget, it's just that after I came to Hogwarts, the past two days have been relatively busy.
These gifts were already prepared when they were still in the Muggle world. "
Hearing what Douglas said, Filch had a smile on his face.
It's just that when there is a smile on his face, he always looks a little weird.
"Professor McGonagall has already told me, because today is Professor Holmes's first day on duty to inspect the school.
So let me take Professor Holmes with me to familiarize myself with the scope of the inspection.
And a few brats to beware of. "
……
It took two hours.
Douglas walked through the inspection route of the castle amidst Filch's rambling voice.
And also told him a few castle secrets,
Then Filch hugged the cat and went to inspect his inspection route.
Seeing the back of Filch leaving, Douglas smiled helplessly.
In fact, Douglas knew what Filch said.
As a foresight traveler, how could he not miss the famous Marauder's Map.
As early as the second grade, he had already obtained the Marauder's Map from Filch's office.
It was not until he graduated that he quietly returned the Marauder's Map.
It has to be said that the Marauder's Map is a very powerful magic item.
It wasn't until he was about to graduate from the sixth grade that he figured out some principles of the Marauder's Map.
Then he took the opportunity to remove his existence from the Marauder's Map.
This is not easy.
……
After ten o'clock in the evening.
George Weasley and Fred Weasley.
Avoid Percy who is reading inwardly.
Carrying the will of all Gryffindor fourth-year students.
Pass the fat lady quietly.
Carefully walk to a corner on the eighth floor away from the principal's office.
George took out a piece of parchment from his arms, and said with a sigh of relief:
"I almost showed this map just now."
Fred whispered with his wand: "Lumos!"
Then said:
"Oh, it's all Professor Holmes' fault, and our night tour plan almost fell through!"
George pointed at the parchment with his wand and read: "I solemnly swear that I have no good intentions!"
As soon as George Weasley's voice fell, the ink lines on the parchment that were originally blank began to extend, and a map of Hogwarts emerged.
And the names of everyone in the castle appeared on it.
Fred and George watched everyone's position carefully.
"Dumbledore is in the headmaster's office!"
"Mrs. Norris is on the third floor, and Filch is on the first floor!"
"Peves is in the abandoned women's room on the second floor, oh my god, Peeves is so powerful, we dare not go into the women's room!"
"If my mother finds out, she will be beaten to death."
