The Dark Wizard of Hogwarts

Chapter 217 The Principal's Diary

The iron rod ball is not much different from the ordinary weight in the hand.

This weight is like a wooden stick in terms of Rey's current strength, and can be swung freely with one hand.

But just as Rey took out the iron rod and ball, the sound of howling and excited elves suddenly came from the basement floor of Hogwarts Castle.

This kind of agitation came suddenly, more like cheers. It's like fans watching their idols score a super classic goal.

The cheers came and went, after all, there were more elves in Hogwarts than anywhere else in the wizarding world.

So many elves cheered, and the entire Hogwarts was awakened for a while.

And that's not all, the elves begin to gather towards Ravenclaw Tower after cheering.

This behavior of the elf is very abnormal.

Professor McGonagall was awakened by the roar, Snape, Flitwick, and even Dumbledore were awakened by the cheers of the elf.

Hogwarts instantly brightened, and the professors dressed in haste and rushed out of their dorms with wands in hand. They didn't go to check the reason for the elf's agitation for the first time, but prepared to go to the dormitory of their respective colleges to protect the students.

The elf riot, this is the worst guess in the professors' hearts at the moment.

How long has it been since the elves rioted?

It seemed like a long time, but no one thought that such a thing would happen on the first night of the school year.

Rey, who was holding the iron rod and ball in his hand, was also shocked by the sudden commotion, and at the same time, Reper's voice sounded in his mind: "The elves are rushing over, quickly take the things in your hands. into the space bag."

Rey understood instantly at Reper's reminder. Most of the unknown weapons in their hands caused the elves to be abnormal.

The chaotic footsteps of the elf were close to his ears, and Rey immediately returned the iron ball to the space bag, while taking a deep breath, trying to keep his emotions as calm as possible.

He still remembered that he had practiced for a long time to restrain his breath. If the elf that came running suddenly disappeared in a panic, it would be even more unclear.

・・・・・・

As soon as the iron club ball entered the space pocket, the sound of footsteps suddenly decreased, and then there was a panicked pacing.

It seems that the group of elves rushed to the lower level of Ravenclaw Tower.

It was only a short while before the elves rushed here. If it was a little later, they would definitely rush to the top of the tower.

After waiting for two or three seconds, the professors shouted and scolded, and the elves competed to avoid in twos and threes. After wandering around the current floor for a while, he left unwillingly.

There were a lot of elves, no less than 300 at least.

Rey stood at the entrance of the stairs and glanced secretly. After seeing all the elves and professors leaving, he slowly left the top of the tower and returned to the dormitory.

"Hey Rey, did you see it outside, I heard the elf riots, and the prefects won't let us go out."

When Rey returned to the dormitory, the classmates who were sleeping with him started chattering. Someone saw Rey coming in from outside, so he naturally asked, and all the other students looked at him for a while.

"I looked at the stars at the top of the tower and didn't see any elf."

Rey's expression was just right. The top of Ravenclaw's tower is relatively high. If ordinary people are on it, they really can't hear footsteps like today, but Rey, who has a good hearing, is an exception.

His physical quality surpassed that of ordinary vampires, and these elf voices naturally couldn't escape his ears.

In the eyes of ordinary people, there is no sound other than the wind on the top floor of Ravenclaw Tower. The roommates in the dormitory have been there, and they also know that Rey has a habit of stargazing.

so,

There's nothing they don't believe when Rey says he's looking at the stars.

Rey is a relatively boring person in the bedroom, and there are not many topics. In the eyes of other roommates, it is a strange existence.

Even though he denied that he didn't know what happened, the roommates had no doubts, but no matter how intense the discussion that followed, he never asked him any more questions.

For such a relationship, Rey didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

For an uncle with a mental age of six, it is really not his habit to get along with children.

When something like this happened today, Rey had already made up his mind, thinking about when to find a time and place to study the iron ball.

Unexpectedly, a seemingly ordinary thing, it can cause the elves to rush so much, I think there must be something extraordinary.

 

The Headmaster's Office at Hogwarts.

All the professors are here. Everyone gathered to report to Dumbledore. Including the newly appointed Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, Pease Benjamin is also here.

Hearing that the students didn't have any injuries, just a false alarm, even a calm Dumbledore couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief.

After the report, everyone fell silent. As for the reason why the elf would make this play, it really puzzled them.

Pixie has had two major riots in history.

Rather than a riot, it would be better to say a strike.

It is still possible that the strike happened elsewhere, and now at Hogwarts, Dumbledore has improved the treatment of the elves a lot.

Although this weak treatment is nothing in the eyes of the wizards, it is already a great improvement in the eyes of the elves, so a strike is obviously unlikely.

The restless elf returned to his quarters, but no matter what the professors asked, they didn't say a word.

This is another strange thing.

The elves of Hogwarts love the professors very much. As long as the professor arranges things, they will do their best to complete it. Although the average professor will not order the elves of Hogwarts, this is also an indisputable fact.

"Professor Dumbledore, do I need an electroveritase?"

Snape asked coldly. If he could, he really wanted to put a drop of Veritaserum on the elf who was leading the way to Ravenclaw, and then figure out what happened.

If any of the students were hurt, he might not even need to ask for instructions, just grab the elf who took the lead and just do it, and then report it to Dumbledore.

Dumbledore shook his head and said no, and Snape glanced at it and said nothing.

"Professor Benjamin, what do you think about this?" After thinking for a while, Dumbledore looked at the only bald head Benjamin among the professors.

On my first day at Hogwarts, I didn't expect to encounter such a thing.

Pease Benjamin sorted his thoughts, and then said: "I feel that they were attracted by something. As for the final restlessness, it should be caused by the sudden disappearance of the thing that attracted them."

"Yes, otherwise they wouldn't stop and keep rummaging for something."

Fei Liwei also agreed with the analysis of the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

At this moment, everyone nodded one after another. After being reminded, it is indeed possible to be like what Pease Benjamin said. There is something that attracts the elves, but before they can find it, it suddenly disappears.

 

There is no further progress in the research of the matter. Dumbledore motioned everyone to go back to rest first, and there are various courses scheduled for tomorrow morning.

After all the professors had left, Dumbledore motioned for Professor McGonagall to stay.

She is the vice-principal, and she naturally needs to deal with some things together.

"Professor Dumbledore, are you ready to..." Professor McGonagall asked, she really had no experience in this kind of thing. So she wondered what Dumbledore was going to do with it.

"If everyone agrees, then we should go to the source. Sometimes asking directly is much better than guessing here."

Dumbledore took Professor McGonagall to the dining hall on the basement floor, and asked the eldest elf.

"Not only are they serving us and feeding us, but they are also a force to be reckoned with in times of crisis at Hogwarts."

In the corridor, Dumbledore turned back and reminded Professor McGonagall. These things, he thinks Professor McGonagall should know.

Although Voldemort disappeared for many years, he was not dead, as Dumbledore knew very well.

If he comes back again, then Hogwarts will experience the biggest crisis. Let Professor McGonagall know this in advance, and it's not a bad thing to prepare early.

"Thank you for sharing with me, Professor."

Professor McGonagall thanked her calmly. As the vice-principal, although she knew more secrets of Hogwarts than other professors, there were still many things she didn't know. Dumbledore's willingness to share is a manifestation of trust.
