Even if Elena pointed out the general scope and direction, it was not easy to pinpoint the stone tunnel leading to the Chamber of Secrets in Hogwarts' bleak and complex pipebing system.

After all, the ghosts' perception of the outside world is still limited to the realm of humans, and shuttling between the walls of the corridor and diving deep into the castle are two completely different experiences - and only a patient ghost professor like Professor Binns can take the trouble to carry out this kind of "physical investigation" exploration process.

The Slytherin Chamber was roughly a few miles below the castle, and Elena estimated that even in the most optimistic scenario, it would take Professor Binns two to three days to get from the beginning to the end.

During this period, she has plenty of time to think about the next issue of "Singing and Singing", as well as to prepare the corresponding historical truths and logical traps in advance in response to the questions that Professor Binns may raise—the best way to deal with the teachings of the old-fashioned pedant professor is to give him some "homework homework" that is difficult to refuse.

Since Dumbledore liked to give her after-school study tasks, he himself no longer wanted to nest in the headmaster's office playing with birds, reading books, and sleeping...... It's a big deal to hurt each other, who is afraid of whom?

Let's not talk about Professor Binns's exploration of the castle and the legacy of Dumbledore's faces.

On the other hand, the storm of the "Age of Magic" caused by Elena has just begun.

With the voices of Dumbledore and Grindelwald, a controversy sparked by the new issue of "Singing Against the Tune" is spreading rapidly, quickly engulfing the entire European wizarding world.

......

Diagon Lane, London, the main office of the Daily Prophet.

The Daily Prophet isn't the only publication in the wizarding world of Britain, but it's definitely the most subscribed. Most wizards use it to get the latest news - in a sense, the newspaper is a bellwether for the wizarding world.

However, due to the low percentage of the population in the magical world, coupled with the convenience of the industrialization of magic.

Even as one of the largest newspapers in the wizarding world, the Daily Prophet is actually as small as a university magazine in terms of business size and number of employees compared to its non-magical counterparts.

If you don't count the contracted columnists, and the journalists who contribute and provide the news from time to time, the Daily Prophet actually has no more than 30 real employees — and that's counting the editor-in-chief, Barnabas Gufe, and two special correspondents, Betty Braithwaite and Rita Skeeter.

Therefore, in order to ensure the smooth operation of the entire magazine, almost everyone will participate in the daily process of collecting and organizing information. As editor-in-chief, one of the tasks of Barnabas Gufe is to read the content of other "third-rate newspapers" every day, and to find out what news can be reported and published at any time.

Bang!

"Hogwarts Calendar, Age of Magic, Remastered History of Magic......"

Barnabas Guffey slammed the fancy magazine in his hand on his desk and looked around at the silent employees with an ugly expression on his face.

"Why didn't we get any news about such a major matter before?!"

"But, Mr. Gufe ......"

Looking at the furious Barnabas Gufe, a middle-aged male witch swallowed his saliva and said cautiously.

"Just this morning, weren't you still using the example of this book to warn us that we must not imitate this kind ......of third-rate tabloid sensationalism?

"What doesn't matter?!, Mr. Wiggleswad, are you blind!"

Barnabas Gufe let out a sneer like a rat with its tail stepped on, and as he spoke, he shook the few pieces of letter in his hand and let out an angry roar.

"Look at the letters from Bathilda Basshat, author of The History of Magic, and Miranda Goshak, the author of The Standard Spell, the most important of these two ...... Letter from Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and Cornelius Fudge, Minister of Magic—"

The content of the letter is very simple, all supporting and interpreting the articles published in the latest issue of "Singing and Singing", although the angle is slightly different, but considering the time of the letter's arrival, it is clear that this is a major event that the Daily Prophet is not aware of.

If the Daily Prophet could still refuse in the face of the first two authors, then in the face of the joint statement of Fudge and Dumbledore, the Daily Prophet had little room for refusal.

"It's so funny that I never imagined that the Daily Prophet would one day publish a review of another magazine. And it's a third-rate tabloid full of nonsense. ”

After a slight pause, Barnabas Guffey sat back in his chair like a deflated balloon, shook his head, and let out a feeble sigh.

"Odpik, sort out the contents of these letters and publish them in three issues. Minister Fudge and Headmaster Dumbledore's comments were placed directly on the front page of the Evening Prophet this evening. ”

I have to say, personal emotions aside, from the perspective of an ordinary reader, those articles published in "Singing Contrarian" about the "Hogwarts Calendar" and "Wizarding Age" are really beautiful - Hogwarts alma mater feelings, conspiracy theories of the Ministry of Magic, anxiety about social decline, and the resurgence of past glories......

Once the authenticity and reliability of these articles are confirmed by official and authoritative sources, Barnabas Gufe can bet with his wand that the entire wizarding community will be firmly seized by the views in the texts.

Recreating the chronology of wizards, the relationship between the Wizarding Age and the Muggle Era, whether it is a pure-blood wizarding family, or a half-blood, hemp wizard who has grown stronger over the years, will actively participate in the discussion of this topic.

As a senior editor, the emotional venting just now was enough, although he was a little dissatisfied with the unexpected appearance of "Singing Contrarian", coupled with the "persecution" that he received a series of letters unexpectedly, made his mentality a little explosive.

But Barnabas Guffey knew exactly what the focus of public opinion in the wizarding world would be for the next period of time, and as the current leader of the Daily Prophet, all he needed to do was to regain that advantage as much as possible......

The middle-aged wizard raised his head, thoughtfully knocked on the wooden table, and said in a deep voice.

"Wiggswald?? Tell her to do everything you can to find that Deresa Apokalis, and get the next exclusive license before Contrarian. ”

As for the magazine, Barnabas Guffe has never been in the eyes of Barnabas Gufe, and he knows very well that this strange magazine, which cannot even pay the manuscript fees to its contributors, cannot really threaten the status of the "Daily Prophet", and at best it only helps it to pull a wave of sales.

Once the mysterious "Teresa Apocalis" is found, everything will return to the process he is familiar with.

Compared with the more famous and well-capitalized "Prophet Daily", that poor third-rate small magazine has no way to give more things to attract writers to stay, which is also the most important reason why "Prophet Daily" has stood firm for a long time - what others can't give, "Prophet Daily" can give, and what others can give you, "Prophet Daily" can give more.

......

At the same time, the Lovegood family.

Reserve Grain squinted slightly, quietly squatting on the wooden table to observe the reactions of the two people in the room.

Elena's little master's reply had been delivered to the owner, and as Lovegood and his daughter read the contents of the letter, the room fell into a strange silence, as if someone had cast a silence spell.

Goo!

Reserve Grain barked impatiently twice, and its little paws scratched on the table, taking the initiative to break the silence.

"So ......"

Luna Lovegood blinked, slowly lowered the letter in her hand, looked up at her silent father and whispered.

"That A· K, I mean, Lady Teresa's request is - if you want to get the Snorkel back, I'm going to come with you to Hogwarts too?"

"I'll go. ”
