From Azkaban To Hogwarts

Although it may seem weird to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes with a fork, but when it comes to emergency, use the fork.

After forking a small piece of egg, William pretended to eat it for the first time and carefully put the egg into his mouth——

Then, William put on the mask of pain.

What asshole made sweet tomato scrambled eggs?

Can a dish like tomato scrambled eggs also be sweet? Is salt a very precious seasoning that chefs are reluctant to add to it?

Fortunately, the twice-cooked pork was okay and was not spoiled by the chef - although eating the twice-cooked pork with bread would have spoiled the dish...

"Well, it's very good. The taste is quite novel."

Looking at the sweet scrambled eggs on the table, William praised it against his will. After all, the twice-cooked pork is really delicious.

"That's good, Professor," the little one nodded, "Only during holidays when there are fewer people, the elves will allow us to put the dishes on the dining table. Normally, they won't let us touch the kitchen utensils at all. "

If I let you touch those dishes, I think the house elves would think you were trying to take away their jobs.

"It would be good to use it during the holidays. After all, the kitchen is the most important place in Hogwarts. If there is a problem in the kitchen, all the teachers and students in the school will be hungry."

William smiled and persuaded, and then naturally asked for information.

"But having said that, are these the only ones who stay in school during the holidays? Are there some who don't like to eat from a big pot and find a place to make their own meals?"

"Probably not. Anyway, our Hufflepuff students are here. The cooking utensils used in the kitchen are much better magic products than the ones we have. The oldest ones are even three to four hundred years old."

If all the Hufflepuffs come out, there will be almost no other students who have not yet come out - if you inquire again at night, basically the list of students who are staying in school will come out. Even if someone eats snacks for lunch and gets through, dinner will not continue. Fill your stomach with snacks.

The professor who will stay in the school cannot be determined for a while. After all, the school benefits are so good. In theory, if a professor is unwilling to go out, he can even rely on elves to deliver meals to solve the problem.

‘Be careful, go to the staff lounge in the afternoon. If you meet someone you know, you can make some insinuations and get some information. ’

While telling some interesting stories to the children, William waited for the end of the meal time - by the time the elf removed all the dinner plates at one o'clock, he counted thirty-one students celebrating Christmas in the school. .

This number is simply not worth mentioning in the castle. Even at the peak of the lunch crowd, the entire restaurant is empty and not crowded.

'The libraries are closed. I really don't know what those children are thinking about staying in school for Christmas...'

With such doubts, William walked in the corridor, reminding himself from time to time to pay attention to the movements around him, and to be careful as usual, so as not to reveal his flaws without making any plans.

——

"Ah, Professor William!"

The moment he entered the staff lounge, William saw a row of scary bright teeth.

"Professor Lockhart, are you planning to spend Christmas on campus?"

William asked very politely

"Yes, of course," Lockhart's smile was a little more enthusiastic than before, "You know, Professor William, after one semester of teaching, I am very tired, and Hogwarts is enough for me now. Being clean allows me to relax and prepare for my new book."

"new book?"

William showed an expression of surprise, "You have an idea so quickly, Professor Lockhart? I dare say that this must be a good book. I can't wait to read it. I'd like to ask, Lockhart." Professor, is there any part of me in it?"

"Why not, ghost friends of Hogwarts!"

Professor Lockhart's signature smile appeared, "I just hope it won't affect your daily teaching."

"How could it be, Professor Lockhart!"

William responded enthusiastically.

…

The two chatted enthusiastically for a long time as if they had made new friends, and finally almost found an excuse to leave together - but William spoke a little slower, and temporarily changed his words to make an appointment with a ghost today.

——

"It shouldn't be a big problem, right?"

William thought about his behavior and felt that it was not too deliberate - after all, he was still a little timid, so he acted too eagerly in front of Lockhart.

"Well, why don't you send another letter to ask how Lockhart started his legend, and show that he wants to be famous a little bit," William reviewed again and felt that there was no big problem.

"After all, he is a great adventurer. Let's reconsider the plan of sneaking into the lounge. It would be bad if we are caught by this great adventurer in the lounge or Professor Snape's office."

Considering Lockhart's achievements, William felt that he should respect this legendary adventurer again - fortunately, because of Adams, William was much more polite to this professor who didn't talk too much than other professors. Not a sudden change.

'I must be careful and careful not to let Professor Lockhart find any loopholes. If the incident of being caught is included in the book, I will probably become a laughing stock in Azkaban. ’

——

"That William didn't find anything, right?"

"What's wrong, our living legend, is he scared?"

Such words appeared in the diary, and the small fear made Lockhart's anger rise.

"Ha, it's your turn to educate me?"

He grabbed the quill, "The plan remains the same, what's the point of chatting with ghosts? Isn't it amazing?"

"To deal with him, I can cast the Forgetting Curse, and he won't even have time to react!"

"Really? Great -" the diary blanked out, "'Legend'?"

"Don't forget, you have a history of being knocked down head-on, professor."

"Hmph, it was just a sneak attack." Lockhart closed the book directly, not even bothering to write anything in it - after the last time, he discovered the shortcomings of the diary, and it would be good to check for omissions and fill in the gaps or even help individuals improve their strength. But the so-called plan is still reliable as he specified it himself.

"It's a good thing that Filch is ill -" Lockhart took out his plan and added, "Confirm the professor who will stay at the school, William."

'At present, no one is stopping me from investigating. Although the door of the library is locked, I can still sneak in. The magic of the locked door is not difficult to break - I will secretly check out the information tonight. , and then started searching for the secret passage while Filch was away at work. ’

Lockhart carefully made a plan on the parchment, preparing to dig up the things left by Slytherin.

'Student goals must also be considered. This is not difficult. I have taught it to lower grades - attack, and then predict death, but you have to create accidents to avoid death so that the matter is not so serious and the story can develop...I am really a genius …'

This sentence appeared in the diary he shared.

‘A door-locking magic that’s easy to break? Ah……'

ps: This chapter is a little slow...so I will make up a chapter during the day tomorrow...
