The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts
Chapter 147 Meeting Hogsmeade for the first time
Tom's Defense Against the Dark Arts was a great success. The performance is that the students actually take the initiative to drag the class, which is a very rare thing. In their memory, no professor's course has ever seen such a grand occasion.
There is no feast that lasts forever, so no lesson can last forever. The only thing that can make teachers stop dragging the class is the arrival of the next class and the teacher of the next class. Tuotang is a rare transaction in the world where the seller increases the amount but the buyer is not happy.
In a forty-minute class, if the teacher delays the class for five minutes, it is equivalent to increasing the amount by one-eighth. Can the teacher get overtime pay for delaying class for five minutes? Does not. Prompt classes delay students' time to go to the toilet and rest, but the teacher's own rest time is also occupied - when the school arranges the timetable, it will try its best to arrange the teacher's classes in consecutive numbers, such as the first class in the morning , like this in Class 7 in the second quarter.
The teacher actually has no obligation to continue teaching after class. He can just finish class at the right time, pat his butt and leave. Therefore, dragging students into class has become an extremely strange thing. It is obviously a reflection of the teacher's responsibility, and the starting point is obviously for the good of the students, but this is still a point of mad complaint from the students.
Every teacher sincerely does not want to drag the class - it would be great to go back to the office and drink tea with the air conditioner and use the mobile phone during this time! But there are a lot of uncertainties about taking classes. Many times, even the most experienced teachers cannot guarantee that they can finish what they want to teach in this class before the end of get out of class. It may be because a student asked a weird question, or there was a delay somewhere. , there was a gap of just a few minutes. There is a lot to cover in each class! You can't move to the next class, because you don't know if there will be new troubles in the next class, so you can only postpone the class to solve the problem.
If you want to stop dragging the class, you can only solve it by becoming a fish monster like Tom: when the bell rings, no matter where you are talking, you just stop, put the book away, and leave.
Haven’t covered all the knowledge before the final exam? It's okay, I'll delete this part from the final exam. As for the students not learning what they should learn, that’s none of my business! This is what many European professors do. They haven't finished teaching the new course a week before the final exam, so they work overtime overnight to change the scope of the exam.
But fortunately, those old-fashioned things they teach are not used at work.
The senior wizards in the classroom filed out, but were stopped by the young wizards outside the door. They all asked about the noise just now.
"Wood, was it you who made the noise just now?" Fred and George also squeezed to the front and winked at Wood.
As soon as Wood nodded, his expression changed. He saw a familiar bun moving quickly towards here in the distance, just like the dorsal fin of a shark on the seashore. He immediately said to Fred: "Go quickly! McGonagall The professor is here!"
Fred and George were worthy of being students who had been competing with Filch for four years. They were as smart as two loaches and disappeared without a trace the moment they heard these words.
However, the departure of Fred and George did not make the corridor empty. The young wizards still surrounded the seniors and were unwilling to disperse. They each found the seniors in their own colleges and asked them about the truth of the matter. At the same time, they also cast curious glances at the [senior sister] in the room.
They completely blocked the section of corridor at the door. The students who didn't have classes next were okay, but the students who had classes were a little anxious. They felt that they were getting closer and closer to being late, but because of face, they could only smile and deal with the juniors.
But at this time, a cold voice came, it was Cassandra who came on the stage behind Wood. She glanced at these noisy students with disdain and said to them coldly: "If you are fine, don't stay here. I have classes next and don't want to be late for such a ridiculous reason."
Other senior students are struggling with being entangled by their junior students and unable to escape. Then Cassandra shows up to be the villain for them, which is exactly what they want. So no one of them stood up to refute Cassandra's words. The most they could do was roll their eyes and silently protest.
The noisy students froze for a moment. Under the strong aura of the senior, they silently separated a path to let the beautiful blond senior pass by, and other students also took the opportunity to escape.
Cassandra suddenly stopped. She saw her sister Cassandra Worley on the periphery of the crowd. Her sister and she were almost cut out of the same mold. They both had beautiful blond hair, wore high-end robes with distinctive Slytherin colors, and looked arrogant. Cassandra Worley is currently in her third year at Slytherin House.
"Why are you here? The Woley family will not join in the fun like ordinary people." She glanced at her sister and said in a reproachful tone.
"I just have Professor Lockhart's next class."
"Very well, listen attentively. Professor Lockhart is a very good professor. You will benefit a lot." She paused. "If possible, you can ask the professor to study with you privately after class." Sister] Let’s practice some sparring.”
After saying this, she left the corridor without looking back, leaving only a faint smell of perfume.
…
As the students who had taken practical classes returned to their academy, Professor Lockhart made an alchemy doll [Senior] and it soon became a hot topic in the school.
The characteristic of the battle doll [Senior] is that it is beautiful and powerful, and due to Professor McGonagall's superb skills, this doll is very realistic. Many young wizards wanted to see this doll, but Professor Lockhart rejected their applications without exception. Because the magic power stored in the doll's body has been exhausted, he needs to recharge the doll with magic power.
This makes the doll [Senior] even more mysterious. Some young wizards even swore that [Senior] was actually a real girl, but she had an accident and was seriously injured and her life was in danger. However, she met Professor Lockhart who traveled around the world. In order to save her life, the kind-hearted professor used alchemy to create a new body for her, an immortal body with immortality and the power of magic!
The story has a nose and eyes, and the little wizards have even arranged the materials for the puppet. A little hemp wizard who had read a lot of books said with certainty that the senior student was made from a mysterious plant from the East called "lotus root". There was a very solid reason for saying this. He took out a book, which recorded that as early as three thousand years ago, the Orientals used lotus roots to make bodies for children who died young. After the child received the new body, he became very powerful and could even Go into the sea and slay the dragon.
Once this hypothesis was put forward, it was immediately recognized by everyone, because Lockhart really went to the East! And [Senior] is so powerful. According to the senior's description, slaying a dragon must be a no-brainer, so such materials must have been used.
Even though McGonagall and Flitwick both stood up and said that [Senior] was really made by them, and Tom himself stated many times that he only made a trivial contribution, this rumor has not been eliminated.
Amid this buzz, Saturday arrived.
Tom has been in Hogwarts for more than a year and has not visited Hogsmeade much. The only intersection between him and Hogsmeade is the Hogsmeade train station. In the first grade, Tom was not eligible to go. Now that Tom is eligible, he has never had the chance to go because of various things.
But this weekend, he had to go anyway. Because he lost a bet with Miss Granger before and needed to buy a box of wine-filled chocolates - something that involves a whole box cannot be bought from Professor Flitwick for free. This is not conducive to establishing a harmonious relationship. Colleague relationships.
Compared with students, professors have a privilege, that is, they can go to Hogsmeade anytime and anywhere. Regular students are only eligible if they have permission from a parent or other guardian after their junior year, and can only go on weekends. Of course, professors also have a lot of work pressure from Monday to Friday, so even if they are qualified, they will not show up in Hogsmeade on weekdays.
Tom got dressed and walked across the grounds to the main entrance to Hogwarts and then to Hogsmeade. But as soon as he walked out of the castle, he saw Snape, who looked like a big bat in black robes.
"Professor Snape, are you going to Hogsmeade too?" Tom was a little surprised. Snape, who had been staying in the basement making potions, actually went to Hogsmeade and allowed himself to meet him. It was really good. What a coincidence.
Snape gave him a cold look, "The potion ingredients I ordered have been delivered."
Tom understood that Professor Snape was going to replenish supplies. After all, the previous thief had stolen all the materials he had stored.
"Professor Snape, you should add an anti-theft spell to your storage room." Tom kindly reminded that if these potion materials fell into the hands of someone with evil intentions, it would be a disaster. Therefore, he, Tom Yoder, is willing to help Mr. Snape eliminate hidden dangers and keep it on his behalf.
Snape snorted coldly, "That stupid thief may have become a rotting and smelly corpse now. The boneless eel jerky he took was actually soaked in the venom of the eight-eyed spider, haha." Nap sneered a few times, without any warmth in his eyes.
Tom:…
This story was written with a nose and an eye, and I almost believed it. Of course he didn't eat the dried meat he took from Snape's office to hide it from others. He is not a madman and will not touch these materials with unknown effects. Just like there is a bottle of sodium chloride in the laboratory, would you use it to cook?
Certainly not.
The two of them walked through the playground in a silent atmosphere, and then saw a familiar figure outside the school gate.
"Professor Dumbledore? Why are you out here too?" Tom was stunned. What kind of wind was blowing today? Did the professors come out collectively to show off?
I need a monthly pass...the monthly pass is so small that it makes me question my life.
So far, there are only 368 votes, which is a bit unbelievable. Then I will make a rule for monthly votes to add updates. It is now the 20th, and until the 30th, one chapter will be added for every 300 votes.
Come on everyone!
By the way, there is a double monthly pass event at the end of the month.
