Chapter 174 Sirius escapes from prison

"That's the way it is."

Argus repeated to Slughorn what he had told Dumbledore.

Slughorn shook his head after hearing this!

"Albus always thinks he has everything under control."

"Unfortunately, many things don't go according to the plan you envision."

"If it hadn't been for him, Harry and Ron wouldn't have been attacked by that guy Lockhart."

"Forget it, let's not mention it." Slughorn liked to dwell on people in the past.

He was also afraid that continuing to talk would make Yagus nervous, so he immediately changed the subject.

"Have you read the notes I gave you? Is there anything you don't understand?"

"Thank you for your concern. Your notes are very detailed. I don't understand anything at the moment."

As for Slughorn's notes, Argus simply looked at them.

Compared to Snape's innovations, Slughorn's potion notes are more based on experience.

It allows people to quickly pass through the process of accumulating experience and grow into a mature potion master.

In the hands of others, it may be a treasure.

But Yagus never thought of putting too much effort into potions.

He studied potions more because he wanted to analyze the essence of magical animal materials and potion materials through potions, so as to improve his understanding of magic.

For example, through the thunderbird's instinct to summon thunderstorms and control the weather, we can infer the essence of spells such as weather spells.

Use the invisible beast to reverse the phantom body curse and so on.

The Magical Creatures and Herbal Medicine courses focus on classification and breeding, which are far less detailed than the analysis of Potions.

Slughorn didn't know this, he just thought that Argus took his notes as seriously as Dumbledore.

Suddenly he beamed with joy.

"With your talent, the notes I gave you can only serve as an aid."

"When you finish this one, I'll give you the next one."

"Thank you for your generosity, Professor Slughorn."

"Hahaha... don't be so polite, come and try the Yingde black tea sent by my former student."

…

A week later.

Peace returns to Hogwarts.

During this period, Alan Mitchell came twice more with great fanfare, both to Dumbledore to assist in the investigation.

Both attempts failed.

The British wizards were already in a quarrel over this matter.

Many people feel that as the principal of Hogwarts, Dumbledore is not in charge of the school but is running around all day for the sake of two students. This is a serious dereliction of duty!

Why didn't he be so active when several students were petrified?

Is the savior's life more valuable than the ordinary wizard's gold?

Some even think that Dumbledore has a guilty conscience!

Disappeared in Hogwarts just to avoid the Ministry of Magic's investigation!

Hogwarts Castle Great Hall.

The prefects of the four colleges were surrounding Yagus asking questions.

"Yagos, is it the fifth grade's turn tonight?"

"Argos, can you discuss with Professor Slughorn that we can take more classes before curfew? We can communicate with the dean and just go back every night during curfew!"

"That's right, there are still Fridays and weekends, so we can also take time to attend classes!"

After a week of study, these fifth- and seventh-grade students who participated in club activities clearly noticed an improvement in their grades.

Maybe they still don’t understand the meaning of these questions, but the cramming teaching of exam-oriented education allows them to subconsciously generate answer ideas as long as they see the questions on the test paper.

While other students were still worrying about how to answer this question, students who had participated in the "evening self-study" had already come up with countless solutions.

Compare them two by two and make a judgment!

For top students, this kind of education is indeed of little use and may even limit their development.

But most students are still ordinary people. When they are very likely to fail the exam, this method is simply a life-saving straw!

Yagus raised his hand and motioned for a pause.

"Everyone, I know you are anxious."

"But you also have to consider the situation of Professor Slughorn. He has been retired for many years and still has extra classes every day."

“Plus pre-curfew clubs.”

"If you continue to take extra classes, you'll be fine, but Professor Slughorn's body won't be able to handle it anymore."

Several prefects couldn't help but have awkward smiles on their faces.

Yagus thought for a while: "Let's do this. If the fifth- and seventh-grade students really want more time to review, you can discuss with the professor and apply for an additional auditorium."

"I prepare test papers for them, let them review them freely, and explain them together when it's their turn."

"Okay! Let's do it like this!"

Several prefects knew that this was a concession made by Yagus in order to protect their face as students of their own college.

In addition to being grateful, there was a look of gratitude in his eyes.

Just when a few people were still discussing the specific arrangements for the follow-up, a large group of owls flew from the ceiling.

Throw rolls of newspapers and gift boxes onto the long table.

Before Yagus and the others could continue to speak, exclamations came one after another from all the long tables.

"Someone has escaped from Azkaban!"

"What! Really fake! Aren't there dementors guarding there? How could someone escape from prison!"

"It's true. The one who escaped from prison is Sirius Black, the murderer who was arrested twelve years ago! He escaped from prison!"

"The newspaper said that he was a member of the Death Eaters and once killed an entire street of Muggles!"

"Merlin's gradient stockings! Why didn't the Dementors give this murderer a kiss! He won't take revenge on the wizarding world after escaping, right?"

"The Daily Prophet said that before he escaped, he had frantically shouted Harry's name, maybe to kill Harry and avenge... that person!"

Did Sirius escape from prison?

Argus raised his eyebrows.

According to the original work, Sirius should have escaped from prison during the summer vacation after seeing the photo of the Weasley family traveling to Egypt and recognizing Peter Pettigrew.

How come it was so early!

Still shouting Harry's name frantically in prison?

Could it be that he knew that Harry had become an idiot?

If so... there would be more room for him to operate!

Argus briefly dealt with the prefects of the four major colleges, and then hurriedly picked up the Daily Prophet to check.

At first glance, he saw the animated picture of Sirius screaming when he was arrested.

After reading the report carefully, his brows slowly relaxed.

"It seems that he chose to escape after knowing that Harry was in trouble."

"It's just not clear whether he knows that Peter Pettigrew is still alive."

"It's time to get Ron's mouse!"
