A day at Hogwarts

While the Weasleys were working out how to make Ron do somersaults, the door to the Slytherin common room opened, and two people sneaked out, came to the room where the elves delivered packages, and took out a large package.

There were only two students here, and one of them asked the other: "Are you sure the plan will succeed?"

The person being asked said with certainty: "Of course it will work. Potter is a coward. He will definitely fall off his broom when he sees the Dementors."

The person asking the question asked again: "But the Dementors have been withdrawn."

"No problem." The person who answered still believed that his plan would succeed, "He didn't have time to think so much at that time."

At the same time, on the other side of the cabinet, Dobby's eyes became sharp.

Charles and Seamus returned to the bedroom and saw Dobby pacing back and forth anxiously.

When Seamus heard that Malfoy was going to pretend to be a Dementor to scare Harry in the Quidditch match, he immediately said angrily: "He is so hateful, we must... um... let's not tell Professor McGonagall."

Not reporting to the professor means solving it privately, and as for the solution, it is naturally to beat him up.

Charles reminded Seamus: "Call more people, don't tell Harry yet."

No one knows why Malfoy wanted to scare Harry with this matter after the Dementors withdrew. Charles has been too lazy to pay attention to him recently. He can only explain that hatred makes reason disappear.

The next day, the first Quidditch match of Hogwarts in 1994 ended with cheers. The careless Gryffindor team defeated the Ravenclaw team by 10 points.

Gryffindor team thought the game would end soon because of the Firebolt joining, and the players other than the Seekers were a little careless. When Alicia Spinnet threw the first Quaffle of the Gryffindor team into the opponent's goal, they were already ahead of Ravenclaw by 80 points.

Halfway through the game, the Firebolt attachment had discovered an object that looked like a Dementor at the top of the stands, but...

"Hey, there are two lone Dementors here." Ron drew out the spell.

Neville said seriously: "They look like they are shivering. It's not cold today."

Hermione, Dean, Lavender, Parvati and others formed a circle behind.

The reason why Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle and Slytherin team captain Marcus Flint shivered was that Seamus didn't intend to say anything, but waved his wand directly.

Professor McGonagall felt something was wrong when she saw that the group of third-year students were missing from the Gryffindor stands. When she saw two objects that looked like Dementors appeared on the opposite stands, she realized that the situation was not good and rushed over immediately.

The young wizards aged thirteen or fourteen have mastered many spells that are powerful enough to kill people, and they don't know how to control their actions, so it's easy for them to get into trouble.

But Professor McGonagall was still a step too late, and could only watch the four Slytherin students being blown off the court by countless fists flying from the top of Seamus' wand, and the fists would explode when they hit the target.

Fortunately, the snow had not melted yet, so they didn't fall to death.

The battle in the stands ended with Gryffindor's victory, but the game on the court was becoming less and less optimistic for the Gryffindor team.

Although the performance of Ravenclaw's Seeker Qiu Zhang's flying broom was far inferior to that of the Firebolt, he still tried his best to prevent the Firebolt appendage from catching the Golden Snitch for most of the game.

The appendage riding on the Firebolt was slow to catch the Golden Snitch, and the Gryffindor players were very impatient, and their mistakes increased. The score gap widened further after narrowing to 50 points.

At the last moment of the game, the Quaffle thrown by the Ravenclaw team had passed the Gryffindor goalkeeper Wood. If the Firebolt appendage caught the Golden Snitch a second later, the game would be a draw.

More than half an hour after the game ended, the Gryffindor team members were still scared.

Charles did not go to watch the game as usual, but was busy in the greenhouse, chatting with Dumbledore at the same time.

Taking advantage of today's opportunity, Charles and Dumbledore talked about the possibility of establishing a magic research institution that is higher than the teaching level of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and discussed whether this institution is only for British and Irish wizards or wizards all over the world.

Charles did not expect such a big thing to convince Dumbledore all at once. Apart from anything else, the Ministry of Magic must intervene.

Dumbledore felt that this matter was feasible to a certain extent, but it was very difficult. The main thing was that a wizard who could suppress others was needed as a leader, otherwise it would be easy to have a second Voldemort.

Charles heard his subtext and felt that what he said made sense.

There are not many top wizards in the UK who can keep the scene. Dumbledore is 113 years old this year, and the old man is almost 130 years old. There is no high-level wizard in the age group of 80 to 90 who can keep the scene. It can be said that there is no successor behind Dumbledore who is enough to convince the public.

This crowd is not just in Hogwarts or the UK, but internationally.

Perhaps for this reason, Dumbledore has some interest in such a magic research institution.

When Professor McGonagall came to the greenhouse, she found that the two guys, one old and one young, looked at her strangely.

Professor McGonagall brought Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle and Flint to the headmaster. These guys had bruises on their faces and looked like they had been beaten up.

Dumbledore was very angry about the behavior of the four of them. In addition to deducting school points, he also punished them to clean all the bathrooms in the castle.

After dealing with Malfoy and the others, Professor McGonagall said to Charles seriously: "The spell that Seamus used just now that can release many fists is very good, but it is also very dangerous. I hope you don't teach it to others easily."

Charles said innocently: "That spell is a Japanese spell given to Seamus by his friend in the magic institute. I still need to use Napoleon Mille-feuille to learn from him."

There is one thing he didn't say. When he used this spell, he just flew out his fist normally to cause physical damage, but when Seamus used it, his fist would explode when it hit the target. Even the Akagi sisters couldn't figure out why this happened.

Dumbledore called Professor McGonagall away because he had something to discuss.

After the Quidditch game, the students who came to work in the greenhouse rushed in and started today's measurement and watering and fertilizing.

Penelope found Charles, patted his shoulder and asked with a smile: "I heard that you gave Percy the idea to invite me to his house to watch his brother do somersaults?"

Charles was surprised and said: "What, Percy really told you that?!"

He didn't expect that he just wanted to give Percy an example, but this guy actually copied it completely.

Penelope said with a sly smile: "I told that idiot that I would go if Fred, George and Ron did somersaults together."

"Hiss..." Charles pinched his chin and thought, "If that's the case, remember to call me."

If it's just Ron doing somersaults, it's nothing, but if Fred and George are added, it's different, you have to go and watch.

Penelope put away the smile on her face and asked Charles: "Does your company need to recruit new employees?"

She will graduate this year, and like other graduates, now is the time to find a job.

After the Christmas holiday, several people have asked Charles if they can go to work at Farbaton Castle. Currently, only Till, the president of the Oil Painting Association, has been admitted without examination.

Charles replied, "If it's a job in the technical department, you need to be interviewed by the head of the department in July."

He thought of Penelope's many years as a senior and now as the head of the female student union, and she has some experience in management, so he said, "We are now short of an administrative director. If you are willing, you can hire her immediately. You will interview the job seekers in the administrative department at that time."

The company is now a makeshift team, so it's okay to find someone familiar to be in charge of administrative work.

Penelope immediately replied, "Administrative director? I think I can do it."

Charles nodded and said, "Okay, tomorrow is Hogsmeade Week, I'll take you to talk to everyone."
