The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

Chapter 376 Principal Maxim (Second)

This is a very delicate oil painting, which depicts a naked girl tied to a cross; below her, the raging fire lit by the wood is rising and devouring her little by little...

Just as Jon was staring at the painting intently, the girl tied to the cross suddenly opened her eyes and stared at him fiercely.

Jon was so frightened that he turned around quickly——

Fortunately, the girl on the oil painting didn't make much noise.

On the opposite side of the oil painting is a statue. The image of the statue is a rooster, which is very large. According to Jon, it is nearly two meters high. Behind the statue, the rooster seems to be guarding a bronze gate.

The rooster statue raised its head proudly, looked down at Jon from above, and then said: "Who are you, why are you here?"

Standing in front of such a giant chicken statue, Jon couldn't help feeling a bit of indescribable fear and oppression.

"I'm Christopher Patrick!" He quickly replied, "I want to find Mrs. Maxime, the headmaster... um... I have something to do with her!"

"The principal is inside!" the giant chicken said coldly, and swaggered to the side, making way for Jon.

Looking at the unobstructed bronze door in front of him, Jon was slightly stunned——

There was no password, no obstruction, no notification... I didn't expect that it would be so easy for students to find the principal once in Beauxbatons.

"Hurry up!" The giant chicken statue beside him couldn't help scolding.

Jon had no choice but to drag his slightly oversized robe, and hastily opened the bronze door and walked in.

...

Opened the bronze door and entered the principal's office——

For a moment, Jon felt as if he had broken into the kingdom of giants in Gref's travel notes.

Tables, chairs, furniture, furnishings, everything is bigger than what Jon usually sees, which is close to a cup... For example, the height of one and a half people, Jon took a lot of effort to distinguish that it is actually a teapot; and the room The bed on the other side, which was comparable to a hut, was at least one meter above the ground, and Jon felt that it would be quite difficult for him to climb up.

Mrs. Maxim in the office seemed to be aware of the movement in the room, and only heard her snort——

Jon turned his head quickly and saw Beauxbaton's headmistress sitting at the desk at the far end of the room, holding a magnifying glass in one hand and a document in the other.

"What's the matter?" She asked a little coldly.

"It's like this, Madam Maxim..." Jon hurried over, "I'm Christopher Patrick, from..."

Jon spoke halfway, and then stopped abruptly... because as he approached, the tall desk blocked his entire vision, making him unable to see Mrs. Maxim at all.

Just when he was about to take a few steps back, the floor under his feet suddenly moved.

Like an earthquake, the marble floor under his feet began to rise suddenly... Jon had no choice but to maintain his calm and not let himself fall.

The floor was raised by about one meter, and now most of Jon's body was exposed above the desk, and he could clearly see Mrs. Maxime up close.

It seems that the other party has long been accustomed to this phenomenon and has long been prepared.

There was a strong smell of perfume from the Headmaster... Jon noticed her rough olive face, jet-black eyes, and sharp nose; En's eyes sparkled.

Madame Maxime put the magnifying glass and the document on the table - Jon noticed that the normal-sized document was about the size of her palm.

"Christopher Patrick?" she murmured, frowning.

Then, she waved her hand at the pile of documents on her right, and a series of documents flew in the sky...but most of them flew back into the pile of documents, and only one of them flew to the headmistress. hands.

Madam Maxim picked up the magnifying glass again and began to carefully read the documents in her hand.

...

The reading process lasted for about a minute, and Madam Maxim put down the magnifying glass and documents again.

"I transferred from Durmstrang a year ago, right... Then I went to Hogwarts as an exchange student for a year." Apparently Mrs. Maxim had forgotten the brief meeting with this boy a year ago , she said with a serious expression: "So Mr. Patrick, what's the matter... If you are asking about the precautions for freshmen, you should ask Melanie Thierry, the prefect of the fifth grade..."

"That's right, Professor Maxim." Jon replied calmly, "I hope I can apply for a leave of absence from school for a while?"

"Suspension?" The principal's face suddenly changed: "Mr. Patrick, are you sure? If I read correctly, you are a fifth grade student. The O.W.Ls exam at the end of the fifth grade is the most important thing in your life for you one of the exams and there will be no second chance; so, you are trying to choose to take a break at this time? Is there any particular reason?"

Of course Jon wouldn't say something like "I don't think I learned much in school" or something like that.

He lowered his head and tried to make his voice sound a little heavy: "Professor Maxim...a very close friend of mine, she is seriously ill, almost incurable...she has very little life left, and she may die at any time." Passed away, I hope I can take time off from school to be with her during this time!"

"If I remember correctly, Beauxbatons has not had any students suffering from incurable diseases in recent years." Madam Maxim's indifferent and severe tone became a little calmer, and she continued to ask.

"It's not a classmate... I met her in England." Jon replied honestly: "The therapist at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magic and Magic said that she might not survive Christmas, so I hope you understand... I hope To be able to accompany her during the last period of her life..."

"What exactly is the disease?" Madam Maxim's face became much gentler, and she asked softly: "There are not many incurable diseases in the magic world...you tell me, and I will see if there is any way or suggestion?"

Jon froze.

He suddenly realized that the half-blood giantess in front of him was actually one of the best wizards in Europe.

With a slightly "strange" appearance and "terrible" pedigree, she became the principal of the largest magic academy in Europe. Mrs. Olim-Maxim's attainment in magic may be higher than she imagined.

She might actually be able to give useful advice.

Jon took a deep breath, and then replied with a stern expression: "It's a blood curse, ma'am."
