Smith Dun?

Hu Xiuwu had no memory of the name. It was very unfamiliar, but he felt inexplicably familiar.

Who is this person?

Feeling the question coming from the soul, the brain and spirit roots were instructed to sit in the Niwan Palace and read through the memories.

Smith, Smith Dun... Dun...

Deng Youfu!

A young man from Northeastern China appeared in his mind. He was well-dressed, wore gold-rimmed glasses, spoke Northeastern dialect, and looked like a savage scholar.

Yes, Smith and Deng, he once mentioned that he gave himself an English name of Smith, but he completely forgot about it.

More than ten years ago, when I was still in the Northeast, I heard Deng Youcai say that his brother Deng Youfu was coming to England to study. More than ten years have passed. Why hasn't Deng Youfu gone back?

In ten years, even if he is studying for a Ph.D., he should be finished. What is he still doing here?

Hu Xiuwu asked: "Mr. Crouch, do you know where this Smith is now?"

Barty Crouch shook his head: "The Ministry of Magic hardly interferes in the internal affairs of Hogwarts. I only know that he is in Hogwarts, but you still have to ask what he is doing in Hogwarts."

Headmaster Dumbledore, or Professor Minerva McGonagall."

When Hu Xiuwu asked Barty Crouch about Deng Youfu's situation, Zhang Zhiwei also warned Zhang Lingyu:

"Lingyu, there is no need to tell anyone else about the conversation between Xiuwu and I just now, including Director Bi who knows everything."

"Yes, master."

As before, Zhang Lingyu did not have any doubts about the master's request and accepted the order with dignity.

With a dull friction sound, the gates of Hogwarts automatically and slowly moved to both sides. An old woman, holding a wand that was still emitting aura, stood at the door to greet them.

Wearing a robe and a pointed hat, she looks exactly like the witch in the story. But her temperament is not as evil as the vicious witch described in the story.

Although wrinkles have covered her cheeks, it can still be seen that she was once a beautiful girl.

Time took away her youthful and beautiful appearance, but she refused to admit defeat and regained a wise, brave, strong and unyielding soul from the years.

"Professor McGonagall, long time no see."

Barty Crouch also retains a certain amount of respect for Professor McGonagall, who devoted his life to Hogwarts and trained one outstanding staff after another for the Ministry of Magic.

Professor McGonagall nodded in return: "Long time no see, Mr. Crouch."

"Are these the guests who came all the way from the east to participate in the Goblet of Fire?"

Barty Crouch nodded: "That's right."

"It's cold and windy on the bridge. Please come into the castle. Mr. Bi, who arrived earlier, has already settled down. I'll take you to see them."

Professor McGonagall first called Hu Xiuwu and others in, and introduced himself on the way: "I am Minerva McGonagall, the dean of Gryffindor College, and the professor in charge of teaching Transfiguration."

"Transformation class?"

Before Hu Xiuwu came here, he read some introduction to Hogwarts from Yao Xing Society. Hogwarts has four colleges and fourteen courses.

Seven majors: Potions, History of Magic, Astronomy, Herbology, Charms, Defense Against the Dark Arts, and Transfiguration. In turn, they can also be called chemistry, history, physics, biology, mathematics, physical education, and Chinese in the magical world.

.

The Transfiguration class can be said to be the top priority. It is easy to get started, but it is difficult to learn the essence. The last person who was called the Master of Transfiguration was the strongest white wizard now and the principal of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

, Albus Dumbledore.

Transfiguration can be said to be the most magical spell in Western magic. It can do almost anything. Hu Xiuwu has always been interested in this spell.

After translating Professor McGonagall's words for Zhang Zhiwei and Zhang Lingyu, Hu Xiuwu couldn't wait to say:

"Professor McGonagall, I wonder if outsiders like us will have the honor to observe your class."

Professor McGonagall admired Hu Xiuwu's studious attitude and said generously and gently:

"Of course. Hogwarts welcomes all students who are interested in magic and are eager to learn and make progress."

"Originally, in order to prevent students from Durmstrang and Beauxbatons from missing classes, Hogwarts decided to add auditoriums for them, and you will be spared."

"but,"

Professor McGonagall changed her voice to the face of a strict teacher that usually scares the little lion of Gryffindor during class: "No matter which side you are from, you must abide by the order of the class in class."

"It's natural."

Professor McGonagall nodded, very satisfied with Hu Xiuwu's attitude:

"I have already made an agreement with Mrs. Pince. Except that you are not allowed to enter the restricted book area, you enjoy the same treatment as the students of this school. You can go to the library to read books and preview them. You have never been exposed to magic, and you have to do it yourself.

effort."

He never expected that Hogwarts would be so generous and allow outsiders to attend its school's courses and read books. This surprised Hu Xiuwu.

The Ministry of Magic has to repeatedly review foreigners from other countries who come to study in ordinary British schools, but here they directly open the courses, and even the library can be entered casually.

It's like Zhengyi Longhushan invited people from Quanzhen to come and warmly entertained Quanzhen disciples, letting them learn the Golden Light Mantra before they left. They were worried that they wouldn't be able to learn it, so they even found a teacher to teach them.

It's simply an unimaginable thing.

By the way, because he was so surprised by this incident, Hu Xiuwu almost forgot about Deng Youfu. Taking advantage of Professor McGonagall's presence, he quickly asked about Deng Youfu's situation.

"Smith Dun?" Professor McGonagall remembered this person. After all, there were not many people from the East in Hogwarts, and there was not even an Asian among the faculty.

"I remember him. He should be with the Professor of Care of Magical Creatures in our school. He came to the school last year and applied to become the assistant of the Forbidden Forest Warden. Albus agreed to his application."

Why did Deng Youfu end up at Hogwarts and become a guard? I remember that he didn’t care much about the alien world and wanted to be a forest guard. Wouldn’t it be nice to go to Changbai Mountain? Why would he go all the way to Hogwarts?

I am here to serve as a guard.

Hu Xiuwu thought to himself.

No matter what he thought, it was always a joy to hear news about a friend he hadn't seen for a long time in a foreign country.

Several people followed Professor McGonagall into the Hogwarts castle. The castle was brightly lit, neat and tidy, and almost spotless. Even some corners and nooks and crannies had been wiped clean. There was no clue that this was a castle that had already been built.

An ancient building with a history of thousands of years.

Their guest room is on the fifth floor. It was converted from an abandoned classroom. Dumbledore personally connected several classrooms and used the Gryffindor student lounge as a template to make it warm and comfortable.

A few days ago, this place was cleaned up by the house elves of Hogwarts. Professor McGonagall helped transform the teaching aids inside into various furniture, sofas, and soft beds with curtains, and placed them on the walls.

The school emblem of Hogwarts is hung on it. On the school emblem, an eagle spreads its wings, a snake crawls and swims, a lion explodes its mane, and a honeypot snores.

Bi Youlong stood in the center of the guest room, talking to a wizard. The atmosphere seemed harmonious.

There is no black strand left in the wizard's hair, and he is also wearing glasses with half-moon lenses. His long white beard can be compared with Zhang Zhiwei's. It has already hung down over his chest, and he has a hood that is tilted down on his head.

wearing a soft hat and a robe as loose as a nightgown.

He looks like another old naughty boy similar to Zhang Zhiwei.

This man's appearance is very familiar to Hu Xiuwu. He can often be seen in major newspapers in the British alien world. Even Yao Xing Society has used a lot of space to describe his story, and his sales have doubled. He can be called the code of wealth.

.

Britain's most powerful white wizard, Dumbledore.

Maybe because of same-sex attraction, Dumbledore, who was talking to Bi Youlong, looked sideways. Among Hu Xiuwu and the others, he noticed Zhang Zhiwei among them at a glance:

"Is this the Heavenly Master?"

Dumbledore said in broken Chinese.
