Archaeologists at Hogwarts

Chapter 138 Successor?!

Toby spent a lot of effort to move the magic car to the playground. Ron and Harry silently opened the trunk and took out their luggage. Toby looked at the crooked car and felt worried.

"Restore it as before, restore it as before! Well, it seems that this is the only way."

Toby put away the wand. Judging from the surface, the car was not that damaged. As for the parts inside, it might have to be repaired in a more troublesome way.

And soon, problems even more troublesome than this will arise.

Dumbledore strode out of the castle, followed by a sneering Snape and a surprised Lockhart.

"I really underestimated you, Professor Heimer."

Lockhart looked at the magic car on his left, looked at the bewildered Harry on his right, and finally showed a sparkling smile to Toby: "I have never thought about using this method to win headlines, or with Harry.

Together, this will greatly increase the appeal."

Ron even stopped hissing in pain (his nose was not healed yet) - he didn't expect Lockhart to ignore him so easily.

But Toby didn't even look at Lockhart. He didn't want to talk to this guy who was vying for the bestseller list. Only Al stared at him with hostility. Lockhart wanted to treat other small animals the same way he usually did.

When he treated Al in the same way, Al slapped his fingers away with his paw, almost splitting him in half with a small shovel.

Dumbledore probably thought that this thing might really happen, so he quickly interrupted: "Toby, can you explain the whole thing? I don't remember you being such a flamboyant person.

.”

"More than just being unassuming." Snape mocked from the side: "He is simply a black-hand-level character who only does those shady things in secret——"

"Oh, really, Severus." Toby was not so good-tempered towards Snape. He retorted: "Do you also want to experience the feeling of being controlled by the mastermind behind the scenes? Or do you think that, in my case,

After leaving school, you won’t be able to do this kind of thing? You have to plan to try it yourself——"

"Toby." Dumbledore suddenly stopped him: "I don't think you are planning to cause any trouble on the first day of school? Even though you have already done so."

He looked at the magic car and said.

Lockhart was already frightened by the confrontation between the two, especially the content of their taunts. He probably didn't expect when Hogwarts became like this, which made his expression a little embarrassed.

.

Only Harry and Ron were vaguely looking forward to seeing Snape being beaten on the first day of school. Is there anything more satisfying than that?

"Okay." Toby didn't look at Snape anymore. He said helplessly: "It's because of Angela. I happened to bump into her on the way back. By the way, I met these two students who missed the school bus.

So I had no choice but to say—but speaking of which, this matter is related to you, Professor Lockhart, it was all because of your report in the Daily Prophet that Angela recognized me—!"

Before Toby became more unscrupulous, Dumbledore said with a headache: "That's it. Mr. Potter and Mr. Weasley will go to the school hospital to check their injuries first. As for you, Toby, come with us to attend the opening of the school year."

The dinner, the students will be arriving soon, don’t waste any more time——"

"What?" Snape's expression was as if he had heard that Christmas had been cancelled. He cleared his throat and said: "Professor Dumbledore, these two students ignored the "Reasonable Restraint of Minor Wizards Act"

", I believe Toby also violated the International Confederation of Wizards' Statute of Secrecy and caused damage to the roof of the castle, and they deserve to be punished."

"Ha!" Toby let out a short mocking laugh: "Punishment? Are you going to punish me, Severus? Oh, I really can't wait to see how you are going to teach me a lesson."

"That's enough." Dumbledore's tone was full of calmness, but Toby and Snape shut their mouths at the same time.

"You should also go to the school hospital and help take care of these two students. For the rest, Professor Snape and Professor Lockhart, let's go back to the auditorium."

Snape gave Toby a last and vicious look, and Lockhart looked at them in confusion. He had never heard such a straightforward declaration of duel between professors.

Will one day he will get the same "invitation"?

Maybe he should strike first and choose a weaker professor such as Snape, who seems to be much easier to deal with than Toby.

Harry and Ron, who stood there blankly, were equally shocked. They didn't need to be punished at all?

Although there was a suspicion that Professor Hemmer was involved, they unknowingly discovered a new way. A door to deal with Snape slowly opened in front of them, revealing the dazzling light inside——

At this time, Toby turned to look at the two of them. In an instant, he changed from Snape's nemesis to the style of an ancient magic professor. He said to the two of them in the same calm tone: "Gentlemen, it seems that we are

I can’t attend the opening dinner, but in order to avoid wasting time in the campus hospital, maybe we can review the last semester’s courses together? You must have not forgotten all those magic circles, right?”

The door was suddenly shut tightly, blocking the helpless two people outside. No matter how hard they knocked, they could not open it.

They dragged their heavy suitcases and followed Professor Heimer dejectedly into the castle, all the way to the school hospital.

Madam Pomfrey shook her head and stared at them. She poked the tips of Harry's stiff hair and Ron's red clown nose with her fingers, even his afro.

"It's a very simple curse. Just drink these two bowls of medicine and you'll be fine in no time."

Harry and Ron did as they were told. They sat on the same hospital bed and took out ink and parchment. Professor Hemmer even conjured a table for them so that they could write and draw on it.

Recalling the magic circle I learned last semester.

Toby stood in front of the window, looking at the students entering the auditorium one after another downstairs.

After a while, Ron finally couldn't help but asked curiously: "Professor, can I know what college Ginny will be assigned to-"

Before he could finish speaking, Toby, who had his back to the two of them, said without looking back: "Gryffindor, Miss Weasley will definitely be sorted into Gryffindor, there is no doubt about it."

"How do you know? It seems that the sorting ceremony hasn't started yet?" Ron asked in shock. He originally planned to ask Professor Heimer to spare him because his nose had visibly swollen and his hair was soft.

Drooping down.

"Because your whole family is Gryffindor."

Toby said: "It's rare to be sorted into Slytherin like that. It's not so easy to connect two schools that are so opposed to each other. I once studied this because I wanted to find out the reasons for the wizard's bloodline.

It’s a special situation, but the result is not as I thought, the sorting has nothing to do with blood, but something to do with something else.”

Ron never thought that his sister would be sorted into Slytherin, so he simply gave up asking questions. This seemed to him extremely ominous, and his parents might make another fuss over this matter.

But Harry quietly raised his head and stared at Professor Heimer's back.

His parents were from Gryffindor House, but the Sorting Hat considered sorting him into Slytherin.

"What could it be, Professor?"

Driven by his heart, Harry asked uncontrollably.

Ron looked at Harry confused, not understanding what he was asking.

But Toby understood.

He did not turn his head, but stared at the reflection in the mirror. It was not like he was answering Harry's question, but more like he was talking to himself: "There must be some special potential that has not yet been discovered.

That’s why the founder of the school valued it so much. As for what this potential is.”

Harry was trying to think of something about himself that would be valued by Slytherin. Before he could think of a result, he saw Professor Hemmer finally turning around and walking towards them, picking up the parchment in front of them and looking at it.

.

"It seems that your review is pretty good."

Professor Heimer suddenly changed the topic and smiled at them: "Then let's have dinner. The school hospital must also have its own dinner. What do you want to eat?"

In front of the unprecedentedly generous Professor Heimer, Ron racked his brains to think of his favorite food, and Al also sang along.

Only Harry, when the fragrant steak appeared on the table, was still thinking about what he had just said.

Special potential?

Harry knew some students from Slytherin, such as Snape and Malfoy, but those were people he hated, and Harry was unwilling to find a sense of identity with them.

Only Professor Heimer is different.

So, will the potential that the Sorting Hat discovered in himself also appear in Professor Hemmer?

Could it be that he is the successor of the Black Devil?
