A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 372: Come here
Chapter three hundred and seventy-two coming
The notice in the hall had an obvious impact on the school. It told all the students that the Tournament no longer only existed in their mouths, but was actually coming.
On Friday night and Saturday morning, Felix woke up from bed and opened the office door in his pajamas.
The corridor was dark, and there was no light to be seen. With the help of the hazy moonlight, several short figures piled up together, forming crooked and weird figures. They were the house elves in the castle.
"Need help?" Felix said, approaching quietly, within two feet of them.
Ah
A suppressed scream was choked out in the throat, and the three house elves stacked on top of each other were about to fall, so Felix quickly reached out to help them. It's an interesting scene.
The house elf on the top greeted respectfully: "Mr. Haipu, hello!"
"Hello, Uncle Yun." Felix replied.
The house-elf in the middle covered the mouth of the elf at the bottom to keep him from screaming, and tried to salute. Uncle Yun hurriedly patted his head and jumped down from a high place. Following the example, the three of them saluted together in the end.
"I heard something... are you cleaning up the portrait?"
Felix looked at Yun Bo holding a rag and a brush in his hand, and a large bottle piled up in the corner, the writing on it was shining in the dark, it was "Mrs. agent".
"And the armor in the castle... sir! We need to clean them up, so that the guests can feel the charm of Hogwarts! Mr. Haipe!" Yun Bo said.
"Well," Felix nodded, and he asked curiously, "I didn't see you holding lights, so you're working in the dark?"
"We are all used to it, sir!" replied the same elf named Uncle Yun, and he said with pride: "Our eyesight is very good, and we can see things clearly with just a little light."
"Is that so?" Felix didn't know, and the introduction about house elves would not mention these things. "However, it is more convenient to use magic lamps. I remember that the school purchased a large number..."
"Yes, the newest magic lamp has been replaced in the kitchen, which is bigger than Uncle Yun!" Uncle Yun stretched his slender hands vigorously to describe the lamp in the kitchen, "Other The companions are very interested, and Dobby”
The elf next to him touched Uncle Yun with his arm, Uncle Yun opened his mouth and stopped talking.
"What's the matter? Dobby is also my employee. Is there anything I don't know?" Felix asked. Dobby would come over at the beginning of every month to report the company's progress to him.
The elf in the middle said respectfully: "No, sir. Dobby... very good, and gave the kitchen some small palm-sized magic lamps, very convenient..."
Felix smiled and said, "This is definitely not what you want to talk about, we can talk."
"Sir, Kaka is not a talkative elf. His master passed away ten years ago. He has no descendants, so he dedicated Kaka to Hogwarts... Kaka has always served the master's family..." The elf named "Kaka" answered with a deep bow.
Felix listened quietly, knowing that there must be a follow-up.
"Kaka is very proud. Whether it's at the master's house or at Hogwarts...he has always done his duty, but, but..." Kaka's eyes widened, "Dobby! Spreading dangerous thoughts, some people who are not strong-willed have already moved, this is not a good omen, he will bring bad luck to the entire elf group..."
"What did he do?" Felix asked.
Kaka lowered his head, Uncle Yun interrupted: "Dobby didn't do anything, he just introduced his new life, he..." The elf stammered: "He put himself on the same level as the wizard status, who he met today... who he will meet tomorrow, the key point is that he still has some companions under his command, all of which are under his control..."
"What's wrong with this? I told him to do it."
"Sir, Mr. Haipu!" said the elf named Kaka, "That is not a gift, but the beginning of bad luck. He has mastered power that does not belong to him, and this power is still expanding... "
Felix gave Uncle Yun a look, because he often went to the kitchen to eat supper and cultivated a tacit understanding, which made Uncle Yun understand, he pulled Kaka away, and said sharply: "Let's go first, sir, There is still work to do! It must be done before dawn!"
Felix returned to the office and sat there for a while. There was a knock on the door, and Uncle Yun came in through the crack of the door.
"Please sit down, Uncle Yun."
"Oh, thank you, Mr. Haipu!" Uncle Yun said excitedly, and he sat down on the edge of the sofa.
A cup of tea with its saucer flew towards him, even though the same scene happened more than once, he still acted very uncomfortable, and the teacup and saucer made a sound.
Felix smiled and said, "Uncle Yun, you know, I need a neutral perspective, and you are the most suitable person."
"Yes, sir," Uncle Yun replied, he thought for a while, and then said respectfully: "Kaka and Dobby, they are very different... Kaka is an old-fashioned elf. In the past, he only served his master, but that wizard had no heirs or heirs, and he donated all his property to Hogwarts in his will, so Kaka came here... He has always been proud of his identity."
Felix nodded.
"Kaka is traditional. Even among the more than a hundred house-elves in the kitchen, he is considered an old-fashioned group, while Dobby is just the opposite. Some of his views... are very novel..."
"Should I accept payment, or belong to freedom?"
Uncle Yun shook his body, and said tremblingly: "Yes, sir, yes... He once said bad things about his former master, but it's not really bad things, they all happened for real... But Kaka Thinking he was disloyal, they had a fight..."
Felix nodded slightly, "And then?"
"After that... Dobby didn't talk much about the past. He likes the present. Every time he comes over, he brings some gifts. Some elves accept them, but Kaka is determined not to! An elf like him There are quite a few more, all of whom are older..."
"Dobby introduced the life outside, his work and work. He also said that he found some wild and wandering elves and provided them with jobs. They are free just like him."
When freedom was mentioned, Uncle Yun shivered violently.
Felix smiled: "I asked him to find some companions. It seems that he has done a good job."
Uncle Yun glanced at him carefully, and asked cautiously: "Sir, what do you think?"
"Me?" Felix smiled, "Let's go with the flow, it takes a while to observe new things, maybe it makes you uncomfortable, but in a few decades, it may become the 'future world' A backbone of the company."
Uncle Yun looked at him in some confusion.
Felix said: "Do you know Ilvermorny? Its founder, Aesop Sir, established a deep friendship with a goblin named William. Many goblins still work in the school today. Isn’t it a bit like the house elves in Hogwarts? The difference is that the Aesop Searle family and William’s goblin family have a more equal relationship, and even signed a protection treaty to protect the students.”
"You know, this is a very rare thing. Goblins don't like humans very much. On the contrary, they love to tease people. They are highly capable of acting alone and full of tricks... This history is talked about by many people. "
"When Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was weak, it was William and his goblin family who protected the students in the school. Hundreds of years later, the situation is reversed, and it is Ilvermorny who protects the school. A family of goblins, free from outside interference... and the goblins of Ilvermorny, although they still complain, insisting that they are only fulfilling an ancient agreement, they still haunt the school mysteriously..."
…
The next day, when the students woke up, they were surprised to find that the castle had been completely new, the portraits had been scrubbed clean, and the armors had suddenly become shiny. When Ron focused on these novel changes, I accidentally guessed the trap in the spiral staircase, and one leg got stuck in the gap.
The armor next to it laughed at him wheezingly, Ron punched it, and the armor spit out several blue bubbles.
"Bah!" said Ron, "the smell of detergent!"
In the afternoon, Hermione went to the library again. As a last resort, Harry and Ron brought Neville and experienced a dungeon adventure in classroom seven, accompanied by the young Felix Hemp the whole time.
When Harry questioned how there was a tavern in the underground palace, a group of Aurors suddenly rushed in and started a big fight with the dark wizard in the tavern, and the three of them ran away all the way.
"This is a black market in disguise, and the code word on the door is the evidence." Felix Haipu's memory followed.
They fled to a secret room full of irascible snitches, and instead of catching them, the snitches pounced on them, each with a fire spell cast on them to stare at their bare skin .
The three of them held the Iron Armor Curse and moved out of the secret room step by step, grinning from the heat. The only consolation is that Felix Haip's memory taught them the "Humanoid Iron Armor Curse"...
In the evening, all the selected students were called to the vice principal's office, and Professor McGonagall spent two hours giving them etiquette training. When Harry was lying on the bed, he could still hear Ron's dream talk
"Damn snitch, stay away from me..."
The next Sunday morning, after breakfast, the students wandered around the castle like sleepwalking, until a special bell rang, and they gathered from all over to the foyer next to the castle auditorium
"Line up! According to the academy..." Filch shouted hoarsely, wearing a moldy suit. He suddenly grabbed a little wizard and said viciously, "You! Where's your school uniform!"
The little wizard was frightened a little hysterical, and ran away screaming.
Students lined up by grade ~IndoMTL.com~ were led out of the castle by their respective deans, scanning the empty grounds excitedly.
"Here we come!"
Called the sharp-eyed student. The students and professors squinted their eyes, and the air suddenly burned violently. A cluster of bright flames appeared, pulling out slender tongues of flame, forming a flower with four petals, and each petal was branded with a magical animal .
"Ahem! Is there anyone on the other side?" A voice said in the flames.
"Ai Gilbert," Dumbledore said gently, "The school has temporarily released the restrictions, you can come here."
"That's good... I'm afraid I've made a mistake..." The voice disappeared.
The students stared. After a while, a hand popped out suddenly, carrying a box, and soon revealed a round, somewhat simple and honest face. He was wearing a blue and cranberry-colored robe, A golden intricate knot is tied across the chest.
When he saw the dense Hogwarts students and professors, he was taken aback and scratched his head, "Uh, hello, my name is Byers."
