Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

The time of writing the first diary was five years ago. According to Hogwarts, only 11-year-old wizards were recruited, and the school system was converted into seven years.

Sherlock should have been 15 at the time, in fifth grade.

And what made him decide to start a diary was because he had just experienced a failed relationship?

Well, judging from the tone of the original owner in the diary, he is indeed a sullen man.

Sherlock continued to turn back and forth.

The dates in the diary are not consecutive. About every three days, he will write an article to complain about some trivial things he encountered in school today, and his admiration for Dumbledore, the headmaster of Hogwarts.

That's right, it can be seen from the original owner's diary that he has a clear worship of Dumbledore.

Even in his words, he made no secret of his future goal, which was to become a wizard like Dumbledore.

His academic performance also seemed to be very good, because Sherlock saw a diary about him getting the first grade in the grade, and many girls from the same college came to him for advice, which made him feel very tired.

After going through a love that was doomed to fail, the original owner seems to have become an indifferent straight man, not only disinterested in the face of the opposite sex, but also defined as harassment by their keenness to surround him.

Half of the entire diary records the days when the original owner studied and lived at Hogwarts.

And from his experience in these student days, Sherlock has basically been able to figure out his character.

He was obviously a rather withdrawn person outside, and Sherlock didn't see a single passage of his description of his friend in his diary about studying and living at Hogwarts.

That is to say, in the seven years he was at Hogwarts, he did not get along with a single friend.

As for the girlfriend mentioned in the first diary, he just regarded her as a tool person.

The original owner's greatest hobby is reading books.

Rightfully, he was a Ravenclaw student at Hogwarts.

Apart from going out to eat, sleep, and attend classes, he seems to allocate all of his time to reading and studying.

Every day is either in the library or on the way to the library.

Reading and studying seemed to be everything in his life, and becoming a wizard like Dumbledore was his lifelong pursuit.

As a result, a distinct character image was gradually sketched out in Sherlock's mind.

The original master was tall and handsome, but he always had a face that seemed like everyone owed him 2,580,000 to 80,000 yuan.

He speaks bluntly, does not compliment and polite, is not good at dealing with people, and never hides his likes and dislikes.

To put it simply, his temper was like a stone in a quarry, stinky and hard.

Later, Sherlock found a magic photo posted on the back of the last journal of Hogwarts school life.

Above is a group photo of his academy graduates.

That handsome face is easy to spot in a crowd.

He was standing in the corner, all the other students were smiling, only he was stern and frowning, looking very aloof, as if he was disgusting that taking graduation photos was a waste of his time.

Staring at the photo, Sherlock looked in the mirror and tried to imitate the look on the original owner's face.

Honestly it's not difficult.

He just had to keep thinking that as long as he showed his tricks for a while, he might be caught by Professor McGonagall to Dumbledore to "brainwash" him, and he would naturally show a bitter and vengeful expression.

Because apart from the first part, the rest of the Harry Potter stories are what Sherlock learned from short film commentary videos.

Therefore, his own impression of Dumbledore all came from the old yin and gangster images instilled by those movie commentators.

There are even commentaries to add private goods,

In fact, all of Harry Potter's experiences at Hogwarts were secretly planned by Dumbledore.

This made Sherlock always have some inexplicable defense and resistance to Dumbledore.

As long as he thought that if he was discovered, he might be taken to Dumbledore, and he could naturally pull his face down and put on a bad face.

As for the tone of voice, it's even simpler. You may still need to learn to say good things, but everyone should be able to say what they are saying directly.

The expression and language management had a prepared direction, but Sherlock did not stop to continue studying the diary.

This is certainly not due to his voyeuristic desires.

It was because it had only been three years since the original owner graduated from Hogwarts, and the experience of the last three years was undoubtedly more important.

Sure enough, Sherlock was given a big "surprise" after leaving Hogwarts' first diary.

"June 28, 1989."

"What a frustrating day, Professor Dumbledore rejected my job application, he said that I just graduated from Hogwarts, the understanding of defensive magic is still only theoretical, I need more practice ."

"Although it's disappointing, the professor also recognizes my talent very much. He said that in the future, when considering the candidate of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, he will definitely give priority to me. It is really heartwarming to be recognized by Professor Dumbledore. Pleasant thing."

"Well, although I don't think that the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts that Hogwarts has hired in the past two years has much better practical ability than me, Professor Dumbledore's words are not wrong."

"So, what kind of job should I look for next?"

"Well... if it's to gain practical experience, maybe becoming an Auror is a very good choice."

Sherlock stared at this diary for a long time. He never imagined that the original owner had applied to Dumbledore for a position as a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts when he just graduated.

According to the information channel of the film's commentary, this position was cursed by Voldemort, the ultimate villain in the Harry Potter stories.

Any professor who works in this position often has an accident or even death for various reasons within less than a year.

Fortunately, the original owner's job search experience was not successful, and Dumbledore rejected his request.

Otherwise, he might not have waited for the current Sherlock to cross over, and he would have had an accident.

After being rejected by Dumbledore, the original owner did just as he said, and went to the Auror headquarters under the British Ministry of Magic for an interview.

With the excellent results obtained from the Ultimate Wizarding Rank Examination (N.E.W.T.) and the accumulation of seven consecutive years of hard work, he easily passed the Auror recruitment requirements.

It's just that after joining the job, he was not assigned to the Auror's combat department, but because of his solid theoretical knowledge, he became a civilian in the Auror Command.

This made the original owner very dissatisfied. After several unsuccessful applications to be transferred to the combat department, he stayed in the Ministry of Magic for just over a year and two months before resigning and returning home.

Since then, he has been working as an otaku at home, concentrating on the study of defensive magic.

It wasn't until three months ago that he returned to Hogwarts, except for his annual application for a Defence Against the Dark Arts professorship.

He also applied to join the Order of the Phoenix, a resistance organization founded by Dumbledore when the power of the mysterious man swept the entire wizarding world.

Sherlock had some impressions of the name of the organization, and he vaguely remembered that one of the seven Harry Potter series was called this name.

This time, Dumbledore did not give a clear answer to his application, neither agreeing nor denying it.

This made the original owner extremely disappointed. He felt that he had not actually received Dumbledore's real approval, and he had been depressed for more than a month.

A week ago, he gave up on himself and started to try an unfinished, high-risk magic spell experiment, and the diary was interrupted here.

But Sherlock can guess what happened next.

It must have been an accident in his experiment, which caused him to fly out from the second floor, and finally fell to his head when he landed on the ground, which made Sherlock pass through him.

After reading the entire diary, Sherlock had a deeper impression of the original owner.

This guy is like a problem child who hasn't grown up yet. Except for his good academic performance, he has problems all over his body.

No wonder Dumbledore rejected his application for a professorship, even considering joining his own small society.

Sherlock leaned back on the chair, pinching his chin and thinking quietly.

Therefore, the matter of Professor McGonagall's special visit this time is likely to be related to the original owner's application to Dumbledore to join the Order of the Phoenix two months ago.

The letter said that things had taken a turn for the better, which meant that Dumbledore most likely agreed to his application for membership.

If that's the case, then Sherlock can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Joining a small club or something is not bad. The original owner was originally a withdrawn person. As long as he was cautious after joining, he tried to deal with the people in it as little as possible, and seized the time to familiarize himself with magic.

As long as he doesn't go to Hogwarts to be a professor of labor and capital, everything else is easy to say.

Thinking of this, Sherlock suddenly felt relaxed.

Besides, he wouldn't be able to become a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts this year.

It is now July, and the professors for the next semester are estimated to have already been selected.

According to his vague memory, the unlucky guy who became a defense professor this year seemed to be a star wizard, and the original owner, a lonely otaku who didn't even have friends, obviously couldn't even touch the clothes of star wizards.
