Chapter 457 This matter is more troublesome than Voldemort

Sun Zhu paced hesitantly in the corridor. She wanted to knock on the door several times, but she didn't have the courage.

According to Dumbledore's suggestion, she first went to Professor McGonagall and told her that the Gryffindors were instigated by other people's pranks and irrationally launched an attack on the Slytherins.

When she took out the piece of parchment, Professor McGonagall's expression was serious enough to make her cut out a copy of Universal Orlando in her office.

The uncomfortable silence lasted for what seemed like a century. Sun Zhu heard Professor McGonagall speak: "Miss Sun, where did you get this parchment?"

"Well, that night, Cedric and I picked it up on the movable staircase when we were on night patrol. You know, this must be a conspiracy, maybe it was the conspiracy thought up by the Death Eaters who escaped from the Ministry of Magic. Recruit! The purpose is to sow discord..."

Professor McGonagall pursed her lips and shook her head: "I don't think so, Miss Sun."

Sun Zhu's heart skipped a beat: "What do you mean?"

"Although the wording of this letter is vulgar and stereotyped, it is obviously an insider who hopes to achieve his purpose." She said: "Ordinary students will not know many of the things above. It is not like a prank. As for the Death Eaters, doing this, It’s just too obvious.”

"Ah...yes. So, um, is there a better way to handle this matter properly?"

Professor McGonagall looked at her for a while, and a smile appeared on her always serious face. As if she suddenly remembered, she answered the question: "I heard that there are students in Hufflepuff who are practicing animagus, right?" ?"

Sun Zhu nodded. There was no need to hide anything. He could tell the truth to Professor McGonagall: "They are my two friends. They have initially succeeded, but they are not very stable."

"For children who have not yet reached adulthood, it is already a good achievement if it is effective." Professor McGonagall nodded slightly, "I hope your efforts will reward you in the future."

"Don't you think our crisis awareness is a little too high?" Sun Zhu probed: "If we spend all our time doing this, we will find out in the end that all our worries are just unfounded, or it may not be of any use."

"It's not important, kid." Professor McGonagall frowned, "Sometimes you don't necessarily have to ask for feedback when doing things. It's just one of the best results. Even if you get nothing in the end, it doesn't mean it's meaningless."

She pinched the parchment with her fingers: "It is much better than wasting time on this kind of thing. I don't know whose hand it is from. I just want to tell my students not to be easily fooled by such crude language." Stir up emotions.”

"But this is also human nature..." Sun Zhu said in a weak voice, "No matter how much you know, you can't always be rational."

"What you said makes sense, so let them do it." Professor McGonagall smiled.

"Ah? What to do?"

"As you can see." She adjusted her glasses, "I can't make the Gryffindors ignore these words, and I can't stop Slytherin from counterattacking now. The relationship between the two houses, It's not something that can be changed with just a piece of parchment. Even if the words above are truly from the bottom of my heart, the effect will probably not be better than it is now."

Sun Zhu agreed: "Yes, this is what gives people a headache."

But it’s not all Uncle Long’s fault, maybe she didn’t think more about it. It's not easy to explain the contradictions in Hogwarts. She has never taken the initiative, and Uncle Long didn't show any interest before, so she made these mistakes.

"So, I think it's okay to let it be. Of course, if you know who wrote this letter, I wouldn't mind punishing him to a certain extent."

"Ah haha, how do I know this?" Sun Zhu shrank his neck, "But if they fight back and forth like this, won't they have to deduct a lot of college points?"

"That is also one of the prices that should be paid in the learning process." Professor McGonagall didn't seem to think it was anything. "Those who insist on thinking will find that it is meaningless. If you insist on fighting back, maybe it is just out of nature."

Sun Zhu sighed in his heart.

Professor McGonagall is indeed a very demanding and fair person for students. She seems to think that many Gryffindors can't see that Slytherin was "framed", but they may not care about the truth, they just want to find a channel to vent their frustration, or they just follow the crowd and release themselves. desire for destruction. If you are deducted points for this, you should be.

She hesitated again and again, but persisted: "But they really shouldn't put their energy into these unnecessary disputes! Especially what the letter says is right. There is indeed, well, something going on in the future of Hogwarts."

"Then what do you want me to do?" Professor McGonagall had his own opinion, but he was not arbitrary. "The principal and professors will naturally keep an eye on them to prevent them from causing a big mess. If they intervene forcefully, I am afraid that the two students will They don’t care about their college points, and they will only end up making trouble.”

Yes, how can we calm down the anger of both parties, how can we make them restrain themselves and regain their rationality.

She shouldn't have to think about such complicated issues. This is simply more troublesome than dealing with Voldemort.

"I have a suggestion. You can go to Professor Snape. He may have a more effective way." Professor McGonagall said.

Sun Zhu looked at the closed office door, folding his arms and having a headache.

Why did she think that compared to Professor Snape, Professor McGonagall would secretly observe the students' movements and prevent them from getting really hurt? And he is the dean who is even more lazy to take care of things.

Perhaps all he cares about is Potions class and...

The closed door suddenly opened, and the professor's gloomy face suddenly appeared in front of her.

"If Miss Sun could be considerate of the fragile floors of this aging castle, I think her professor would be less troubled."

Sun Zhu suddenly froze on the spot, holding the parchment in both hands, and said sincerely: "As one of Professor Snape's most devout students, I don't think my weight is enough to cause any substantial damage to the century-old building of our school. damage."

Snape stared at her wordlessly.

Sun Zhu eagerly handed over the parchment: "No intention of interrupting, but you also know that the recent dispute between Gryffindor and Slytherin..."

"So?" Snape had no intention of looking at it.

really. Sun Zhu gritted his teeth again: "It's like this. Students on both sides have their own representatives and are trying to start a violent fight. For example, Harry and Malfoy, they are almost crazy about each other. You really don't care. ?"

Snape's face was as dark as water could drip from his face. After a while, he briefly glanced at the contents of the parchment and showed a smile that was scarier than crying: "It looks like this is your masterpiece?"
