Aphasia at Hogwarts

"Why did you two go to the front? You were clearly walking behind us just now." In the corridor, Ron looked at Hermione and Guan Qiong who appeared in front of him and Harry, and looked behind suspiciously.

It's really strange, there is only one way, how did they get to the front.

"Don't you know all the secret passages in Hogwarts like the back of your hand? And if you walk so slowly, you will be late for Professor McGonagall's class." Hermione, who was full of energy, put her hands on her hips, urging Ron and others What a spirited Harry.

Harry was in a depressed mood because of the death prophecy of Professor Trelawney just now.

"Harry, if you want me to tell you, you should forget all about the lesson just now, it will only affect your mood, it will have no effect at all, and you won't learn anything." Hermione looked at Harry, comforting said.

"But." Harry wanted to emphasize to Hermione that he had seen the big black dog that was an omen of death twice before, but they had already reached the door of the Transfiguration classroom, and Professor McGonagall was already standing inside with a serious face, waiting The arrival of the students.

This made Harry shut up, and he and Ron hurried inside.

As Gryffindor students, they have a subconscious fear of Professor McGonagall who is the head of Gryffindor.

Especially when Professor McGonagall looked over, his calm eyes fell on him through the square glasses, which was enough to make any student tremble in his heart.

The Gryffindor students sat down one by one. Professor McGonagall stood at the front, glanced over, counted the number of people, and then nodded.

"Very well, I thought some students would be late because they couldn't find a classroom. Although this is unbelievable for third-grade students, there will always be one or two daredevils."

Professor McGonagall said in a joking tone, looking at Harry and Ron sitting at the back of the classroom, wanting to liven up the atmosphere and give the first lesson of the new school year a good start.

But I don't know what went wrong. Harry's expression was blank, and he didn't respond at all. The other students looked over there, but there was no smile on their faces. Instead, they looked worried.

Professor McGonagall frowned slightly, feeling something was wrong.

But she didn't think too much, just continued talking.

"Okay, class starts now." Professor McGonagall drew the students' attention back.

"As third-year students, you are separated from the innocence of first- and second-year students. Even those students from Muggle society have a basic but comprehensive understanding of the wizarding world and all kinds of magic."

"So, after the third grade, Hogwarts has added elective courses, so that you can learn more about the wizarding world. Similarly, the main courses will be more difficult than before, no longer Just like the first and second grades, just teach some basic, simple magic."

Professor McGonagall waved his wand lightly as he spoke.

In front of her, the teacup on the podium transformed into a toad, screaming lonely and lonely, and then the toad turned into a bird under the professor's control, flapping its wings, but it didn't fly.

This is exactly what they learned in the first and second grades. The initial application of Transfiguration is not esoteric.

"And next, I will teach you the deeper things about Transfiguration, so that you can master all kinds of wonderful applications of Transfiguration."

Professor McGonagall looked at the dull-looking students below, and the corners of his eyes twitched.

"For example, Animagus!"

She suddenly raised her voice and waved her wand, and then, her body suddenly changed, her size began to shrink, and fluff began to grow all over her body.

In the blink of an eye, Professor McGonagall turned into a tabby cat in front of all the students. There were traces of glasses around the cat's eyes, and the expression was exactly the same as Professor McGonagall just now.

After a while, Professor McGonagall changed back to his own appearance, looking at the students who remained calm in front of him, he finally couldn't help it this time.

"I said, what's the matter with you?" Professor McGonagall looked at them, "Generally speaking, there will be a little applause at this time. arrive."

Animagus has always been the best way to arouse students' interest in transfiguration. After all, no one wants to transform themselves into an animal to gain a new and different physical experience than human beings.

Professor McGonagall also often uses this to make students love learning Transfiguration even more, because although Animagus is an extremely difficult content, and even few students in the seventh grade can master it, she still It will be explained and demonstrated in the third grade, which will help to improve the enthusiasm of the students.

However, the current situation is different from what she expected.

Among them, something must have happened and affected them.

When the students heard this, they all turned to look at Harry, but none of them spoke. They didn't know what to say, and they were afraid of provoking Harry.

Only Hermione raised her hand.

"It's a divination class, Professor, we just had a divination class, and Trelawney taught her"

Before Hermione finished speaking, Professor McGonagall nodded knowingly, and said with a slight contemptuous expression, "I see, Miss Granger, is it a sign of death, right? On one person, she said someone would die this year."

Professor McGonagall looked at the place where the eyes of the students gathered, that is, Harry.

"So, is this year's candidate, are you? Potter, Sybill Trelawney predicted your death, so everyone is very worried about you, and you have been greatly affected, and you can't even concentrate on class. "

"Professor, I." Harry wanted to explain that he had seen the omen of the black dog twice before, but he was not sure whether Professor McGonagall would believe it.

For a moment, he couldn't figure out how to speak to let Professor McGonagall know the seriousness of the matter.

"I understand, Potter." Professor McGonagall looked at Harry, "To be honest, any person who is told by a fortuneteller that he is about to face death will look like you are worried now. This is not surprising, but I think What I want to tell you is."

Professor McGonagall paused, trying to use a flat tone to avoid being biased, "Since Professor Trelawney came to this school, she has predicted the death of a student every year. This is the way she teaches , so that you can believe more and devote yourself to the divination class."

"And so far, no one has had an accident."

"And, I think you should understand a little bit." Professor McGonagall said with a smile, "Dumbledore will not let any student have an accident in the school. This is his responsibility and integrity as the principal. Professor Trelawney If the prophecy is to be established, Dumbledore should be the first to confront."

"And this is impossible. After all, Dumbledore is the greatest wizard and the most powerful wizard today. Even if you don't believe in yourself, you should believe in him."

Harry blinked, and suddenly became relaxed, because he found that Professor McGonagall's words really made sense.

In Hogwarts, there is Dumbledore, and it is absolutely impossible for Dumbledore to let the students die.

"I see, thank you, Professor McGonagall," said Harry gratefully.

"You're welcome, alright, let's continue the class now. About Animagus, although you won't use it for a long time, I think you will be very willing to hear about it." Professor McGonagall continued with the class, and the students finally became more active.

This class ended very quickly. Compared with the divination class, it was much more interesting, and time passed by unconsciously.

After class, the students leave the classroom and prepare to go to the auditorium for lunch.
