Chapter 393: New Professor
After covering his right hand with his sleeve, Dumbledore greeted the students with a routine gesture and announced what was going to happen every year at Hogwarts, with the new Potions professor, Slughorn, and the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, Snape......
"No!" Harry's voice was so loud that many of the heads around him turned in this direction. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Harry, you didn't mean Slughorn was going to teach Defence Against the Dark Arts!" Ron said.
"I thought it was him!" Harry said through gritted teeth.
Snape was sitting on Dumbledore's right at this time, and only raised a hand when Dumbledore mentioned his name, probably because there was a cheer at the Slytherin table, and he wanted to be a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, which almost no one at Hogwarts didn't know, and now he finally got his wish.
However, Darren thought that when it was time for class to see the Gryffindors below who had chosen Defence Against the Dark Arts class to avoid his Potions class, such as Harry, Neville, and Seamus, he might not be so happy.
And, "Well, there's a little bit of a good thing about this," Harry said through gritted teeth, "and Snape will be out of the way in less than a year." ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"That job is under a curse, and no one can last more than a year...... Quirrell even got his life in it, and I personally sincerely hope that another murder will happen......"
"Harry!" Hermione shouted in horror when she heard Harry's words, Darren glanced at this guy, hated Snape, and hoped that the other party would die, so "upright", but it seems that the curse was under Voldemort, even if it is to be detrimental to the person who is disgusted, but it depends on the strength of the enemy, it is really hehe......
“…… In particular, it is necessary to comply with the rule that you should not get up and go out after the specified time. I implore you to report anything unusual or suspicious to the faculty immediately, both on or off campus. I am sure that you, for the sake of your own safety and the safety of others, will definitely restrain your behavior. ”
"Well, your beds are waiting for you, as warm and comfortable as you expect, and I know that your immediate priority now is to rest well and prepare for tomorrow's class. So, let's say 'good night'. Toot toot!"
Hearing Dumbledore's last words, Darren turned his head to Hermione, "What does 'toot' mean? Latin? Just like the old 'stupid! cry nose! screw!screw!' Same?"
"I don't know, I'm busy......" Hermione went on to do her duties as a prefect, taking care of the first-year students, leaving Darren with Ron and Harry.
"Ron, why don't you go?" said Darren to Ron, who was still seated.
"There's a new prefect, it's time for them to work," Ron said nonchalantly, as every year, Hogwarts elects male and female prefects for the new fifth year.
"What the hell is wrong with your nose?" Ron asked Harry after the crowd had left.
Seeing that there was no one else around, and that he had just seen Draco describe how he smashed a nose at the Slytherin table, Harry didn't need to hide anything from Ron, he told the story again, and it just so happened that Darren didn't know the specifics, so let's listen to it.
“…… Malfoy said, 'Well, who cares what he's interested in? Besides, what is he? just a stupid teacher.' Then he said, 'Maybe I won't be at Hogwarts next year, and what does it matter to me if some old fat man who is too angry likes me or not?'"
“…… After everyone else had left, he suddenly cast a petrification charm on me with his wand, and when I climbed up the luggage rack, he saw me and ......"
"I saw Malfoy there pretending to deal with a nose. Ron said indignantly.
"yes, okay, leave it alone. Harry said angrily, "Listen to what he said before he found me......
"Come on, Harry, he's just showing off in front of Parkinson...... What mission will the mystery man give him?"
"How do you know that Voldemort doesn't need someone to install at Hogwarts? this is not the first time ......" Hearing Harry say "Voldemort" again, Darren frowned, how can this bear child always be disobedient!
"I want you to stop saying that name, Harry. Then a familiar voice sounded behind them, Hagrid, who walked over with a shake of his head.
That's what Dumbledore called him. Harry insisted.
"yes, but that's Dumbledore, isn't it?" Hagrid raised an eyebrow, "Why are you late, Harry? ”
"Delayed in the car. Harry said, "Why are you late?" I listened to Snape. ”
"I'm with Glopp," Hagrid said happily, "and I've lost track of time." Now he had a new home in the mountains, and Dumbledore had arranged for a nice big cave. He was much happier than he had been in the Forbidden Forest, and we had a good chat for a while. ”
"Really?"
"yes, he's improved a lot. Hagrid was proud of his brother's progress, "You'll be surprised." I'm thinking about grooming him to be my assistant. ”
"Then you're going to have to work hard," said Darren, a little worried that Hagrid shouldn't focus too much on Glopp, after all, he still had important work to do.
"Oh, Darren, it's all right, don't worry, thank you, so I can buy Glopp a lot of things to make him more comfortable," Hagrid said happily, "Alright, we'll see you tomorrow, first class after lunch, come early!" he happily raised an arm to say goodbye to them, and then went out the door and melted into the night.
"Okay, Hagrid!" Darren waved goodbye to Hagrid as well, and then turned to find Harry and Ron staring at each other.
"What's wrong?"
Harry didn't answer Darren's question, "You're not going to take a protection class for magical creatures, are you?" he said to Ron.
Ron shook his head.
"You don't either, do you?"
Harry shook his head.
"You didn't report to the Magical Creatures Protection class?"
“……”
The next morning, before breakfast, Darren met with Harry, Ron, and Hermione in the common room, and Harry told Hermione what he had overheard about Malfoy on the Hogwarts Express.
"He's obviously bragging in front of Parkinson, isn't he?" Before Hermione could speak, Ron scrambled to speak.
"Well," Hermione said hesitantly, "I can't tell...... Maybe Malfoy was deliberately bluffing to show that he was great...... But it's too ...... to make up such a lie."
