Chapter 22: Changes among Students
After seeing McGonagall nod in agreement, Harry knew that another twenty points were gone... On the other side, Holly Parker and Erinka seem to be fine, which is very incomprehensible. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Harry didn't dare to ask what was going on, he knew that since Holly had made the deduction a fact before, then this time, she must have a way to keep herself out of it. Harry, who was scared of being deducted points, didn't dare to ask questions about Holly and Erinka like Malfoy.
Early the next morning, when the Gryffindor House students discovered that they had lost 170 points overnight, the culprit behind the Gryffindor loss of those points was their previous Quidditch hero, Harry Potter, according to the grapevine. He did it with a few other first-graders. In an instant, Harry Potter went from being a hero to a sinner in the house, and even the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff students attacked him in their spare time. This year, everyone had put their hopes of defeating Slyczelin on Gryffindor, and this massive loss of points made their vision less realistic.
Slajerin's students continued to make all sorts of sarcastic fun about Harry, and Draco Malfoy, who had changed a little since he was caught wandering outside that night. Instead of deliberately looking for trouble with Potter, he began to concentrate on studying hard and improving his strength. Before Lucius Malfoy grew old, there was only one way to enjoy the family's resources in advance. Strength is respected, this is Slyerzelin's principle. It is also the norm for the whole world. Slajerin will not inquire into other people's private affairs, but from the changes in Malfoy after Slajelin was detained twenty points that night, it can be seen that Young Master Malfoy is definitely stimulated, and it will definitely not be small. For Slyerjelin students, who have received various education and training since childhood, normal schooling has allowed them to surpass their peers in most cases, as evidenced by Slyergelin's previous championships.
Hufflepuff's students didn't react much, after all, Hufflepuff, as the house with the weakest presence, has always played the role of playing soy sauce at Hogwarts. For senior students, although they have never seen such a large deduction of points, it has no impact on their lives. The House Cup is a feast for the junior students, and the seniors, more of their attention has turned to their regular wizard level exams and senior wizard rank exams. After many years of consecutive championships by Slyergerin, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff have taken the House Cup very lightly, and in fact, it is mainly Gryffindor students who clamored for the House Cup to compete with Slyerjlin every year. Unfortunately, it is much easier for them to deduct points than to score.
Exams are fast approaching, and the weather is getting warmer. More and more students appeared on the lawn by the lake during the day, and the library gradually became crowded. Although Holly and Erinka were still the first to appear in the library each day, they gradually diverted their attention from the Wiesengamot's mission. The so-called mission is actually more about mixing sand into the daily activities of Hogwarts to find something unpleasant for Dumbledore. After all, the two of them are only first-year students, and their magic level is not up to the standard of performing many tasks, but when the strength of the two of them reaches the eighth order, the two of them can take on some secret missions at Hogwarts. That's for later.
When I don't know how many times a junior student ran to the library to take the position of Holly and Erinka and was persuaded to leave by the seniors, someone finally openly raised their own questions about Holly's identity. This person happened to be Hermione Granger, whom Holly had always wanted to investigate or inquire about alone.
Hermione was deducted fifty points, and her obsession with scores had risen to an almost paranoid level. After feeling that there was no chance of helping Gryffindor win the House Cup, Hermione began her near-frantic pursuit of the first place in her year. Whenever she had free time, she would pull two other boys to appear in the library, and with it, every day, she saw the junior students sitting in Holly's place by mistake, and then being persuaded to leave by the senior students of the same college. Hermione was puzzled by this, she had a hard time imagining that a first-year girl would have such a status. A Muggle-born witch, although she knows that there is a class in any society, it is still difficult for her to accept this situation as she is not deeply involved in the world. Especially when Holly didn't show up for Friday's Transfiguration class for two weeks in a row and McGonagall turned a blind eye to it and didn't deduct even a single point from Ravenclaw, Hermione was finally on the verge of exploding.
"Professor, Holly, she hasn't been to class in two weeks," Hermione asked as she approached McGonagall after class.
"Oh, I see, what's wrong, Miss Granger. Your homework has been good lately, but it seems to have dropped from when you first started. McGonagall replied, as if her impression of Hermione had deteriorated a lot after that day.
"Uh...... I just remember Harry and Ron being deducted points by the professor for being two minutes late at the beginning of the school year......" Hermione said in a rambling voice, looking up at McGonagall as she said this.
"Oh, you're trying to ask why I didn't deduct points from Ravenclaw, right?" said McGonagall in a half-cut that Hermione hadn't said. Hermione nodded hesitantly.
"Miss Holly Parker has already taken a leave of absence from me for something else, is that a good reason?" explained McGonagall. Seeing that Hermione didn't seem to believe in this reason, McGonagall shook her head helplessly.
"Well, I know what you're thinking, Miss Granger. While I don't know a lot of things, and your Muggle background makes you know a lot less about the wizarding world than the rest of your classmates, I think you should have enough experience to learn these things, rather than being busy with trivial things all day long. Okay, if that's all right, I think I'm going to grade the other grades. McGonagall interrupted the conversation without question. Leaving Hermione, who seemed to have caught something but didn't, stood alone in the classroom with a blank expression.
A gust of wind blew, and Hermione was still thinking about McGonagall's words, but she stumbled upon a parchment assignment that had fallen on the podium, and looked at the rolled paper tube, only to think that it was longer than the homework she had handed in. There is only one name written on it, but no last name: Holly.
