Chapter 237
The next day.
Although he had expected this, when Argus arrived at the classroom, he was still stunned by the number of people in front of him.
The entire classroom was full… no, it was full of people standing.
Whether it was Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, or Gryffindor, there were many students coming. There were even top students from each college!
Hermione, Qiu Zhang, Neville who was very happy to be assigned to Hufflepuff, Seamus the Explosive Genius, Ginny, the Weasley twins, Cedric…
Others were easy to say, but Cedric really puzzled Argus.
It was understandable that other students didn’t know the Patronus Charm, but you didn’t know it either?
I clearly saw you use the Patronus Charm on the Quidditch field!
Facing Argus’s puzzled look, Cedric just smiled gently and didn’t speak.
The Weasley twins came over with a smile: “Don’t worry, there’s more!”
“Percy and the others don’t have enough space, so they are temporarily arranged in the classroom next door.”
“Who dares to be late for Professor Grindelwald’s class! Hehehe…”
And more?
Argus took a glance and estimated the number of people in the classroom, and then thought about Percy and others in other classrooms.
He even had the urge to learn from Harry in the original book and take them to the Room of Requirement.
There are too many people!
There are several times more than the previous estimate, and it is difficult to even stand, let alone take out the wand to practice magic.
“Hermione, you and Senior Diggory, as well as George and Fred, maintain order first.”
“I’ll apply for the hall.”
After making the arrangements, Argus walked towards Snape’s office.
After the accident in Hogsmeade Village and the court, he has found that Hermione is gradually becoming familiar with handling such things.
It’s just maintaining order, a piece of cake for her.
Not long after Argus left, he happened to meet Professor Flitwick on the road.
He smiled and bowed to greet him.
“Good morning, Professor Flitwick.”
“Good morning, Mr. Grindelwald!” Professor Flitwick’s smile was still so kind.
“Shouldn’t you be teaching the Patronus Charm now?”
“Why are you here?”
Argus smiled helplessly: “Too many people came, and the classroom can’t accommodate them.”
“I’m going to ask Professor Snape for a hall.”
Argus seemed to suddenly remember something.
“Professor Flitwick, isn’t it time for the Charms Club to start teaching today? Why are you…”
“Because everyone went to learn the Patronus Charm from a little wizard!”
Professor Flitwick didn’t mind at all, and even joked with Argus.
“Severus is not in the office right now. I just went to see him.”
“If you want to apply for the Great Hall, I suggest you go directly to Headmaster Dumbledore!”
“Thank you for your reminder, Professor Flitwick!”
“It’s okay, go quickly, don’t let the little wizard wait anxiously!”
Flitwick waved his hand with a gentle smile on his face.
Among the four deans, he is the most popular.
As deans, Professor McGonagall is too strict, Professor Sprout doesn’t like to joke like Flitwick, and Snape… I won’t mention it.
Even his own college Slytherin has few people who like him.
“Remember, the password for the headmaster’s office is Momo Teeth Mints.”
Walked into the headmaster’s office all the way.
Dumbledore didn’t seem surprised by the appearance of Argus.
“Would you like some Molossy Mints, Argus?”
“Snape has been busy making various potions recently and has no time to make tooth-healthy potions.”
“So, you can only eat some Molossy Mints to protect your teeth.”
Dumbledore’s attitude towards Argus has obviously changed, which can be seen from the way he addresses him.
Although he had asked Argus if he could call him by his name before, he often called him Mr. Grindelwald.
“No, Headmaster.”
“I came here to apply for a hall from you.”
“Hall? Is it because of the club you formed? I remember that many people did go there today.”
“It’s not a club. I just want the young wizards in Slytherin to have some self-protection ability when facing Dementors.” Argus replied politely.
“I remember there is a hall in the west tower. You can go there first.”
“Okay, Headmaster.”
The communication between the two was not delayed at all.
Argus, who got the answer he wanted, turned and left. Just after he left, Snape’s figure slowly appeared.
“This time, you are relieved!”
Snape mocked.
“Severus, you know, he is different from that man.” Dumbledore looked in the direction where Argus left.
It was as if he was looking at another person through his back.
“He knows how to love and how to protect.”
“So, you can rest assured to take the little wizards from the four colleges.Leave it all to him?”
Dumbledore was silent.
He seemed to have thought of something, and kept thinking with his head down.
Snape saw this, and the mockery in his eyes became even more intense.
“Severus!”
Dumbledore suddenly spoke.
“If you have time, you should… pay extra attention to the child.”
“He is too much like his father. Even if he can use the second stage of the Patronus Charm, there is no guarantee…”
“What can’t be guaranteed? Can you guarantee that he can protect our savior well? Play that childish flying broom game with our savior?”
Snape’s venomous tongue has always been indiscriminate.
Except when he is with Voldemort, he will be a little restrained.
“Please… Severus.”
“Harry’s growth is too different from what we expected. We can’t have any more accidents. ”
Snape sneered at this.
When Argus first entered school, you asked me to keep an eye on him.
I watched him for so long, but I didn’t find anything.
Now, he can cast the Patronus Charm so well that he can summon a Patronus, and you still don’t trust him?
You have to make him follow Harry wholeheartedly, right?
Snape disliked Harry so much.
Except for those eyes, he was basically the same as his father!
When he saw him, Snape remembered the bullying he had suffered.
Dumbledore certainly understood what Snape meant.
But he had no choice. He could only ask Snape for this kind of thing. No other professor would agree to it.
“Severus, I promise you, this is the last time.”
“He is the savior in the prophecy, the only one who survived the Killing Curse.”
“He is also Lily… the only child! ”
He said it very cleverly, first mentioning the prophecy and the killing curse, evoking Snape’s memories of the past.
If Snape hadn’t leaked the secret, Harry wouldn’t have been targeted by Voldemort, and Lily wouldn’t have died.
The pain and bitterness that were difficult to describe in words surged into Snape’s heart.
The strong emotional fluctuations almost made him stop breathing.
It took a long time for him to recover.
He looked at Dumbledore with an indifferent look.
“Remember, this is the last time!”
