Easter is just around the corner, and there is one important thing for second-graders to consider right now, and that is – choosing classes. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Burn? Wen Xiao?? Say? w?ww?．? Everyone has to think about which courses they should choose for the next academic year.

"Divination, ancient magic, arithmetic divination, and Muggle studies?"

Xana looked at the list of courses sent down and considered which courses she would add in the next academic year, electives were an important supplement to compulsory courses (such as Muggle studies) on the one hand, and advanced magical knowledge (such as ancient magic texts) on the other hand, which must be carefully chosen, which was also Hermione's opinion.

"This affects our entire future."

Hermione, who has gradually emerged from the shadow of QB, is devoting herself to her studies with a more enthusiastic attitude, emphasizing the importance of choosing courses in front of everyone more than once. She herself went through the curriculum and tried to come up with the best solution.

"I just want to give up Potions class."

Hallie said as she leaned on the table.

Although Snape has been less difficult for her in class lately (Harley doesn't understand what's going on, anyway, Snape always turns his head when he meets her after his mother), but Hallie's impression of Snape has been fixed, she doesn't want to see this old bat at any more time, and not attending Potions class is Harley's greatest wish.

"Impossible." Listening to Harry's complaints, Ron felt relatable, and he said in a low mood, "I want to do that too." But I had to take all the original subjects, otherwise I would have thrown out the Defence Against the Dark Arts class a long time ago. ”

"That class is important!"

"Teachings like Lockhart's, I don't think so. I didn't learn anything from him other than not to put the elf out. ”

It is impossible not to take compulsory courses, and Ron also verbally complained that the coursework will only increase, not decrease, and he can only rack his brains to choose the courses that are easy to pass as much as possible.

At this point, it was a good idea to turn to her seniors for help, and Percy was kind enough to explain how to choose a course for Harley.

"It depends on where you want to go, Harley." He said, "You have to plan for the future early, so I recommend divination to you." People say it's stupid to choose Muggle studies, but I personally think wizards should have a thorough understanding of non-magical societies, especially if they want to work in a job closely related to Muggles - you see my father, he had to deal with Muggle affairs at all times. My brother Charlie has always loved to be outdoors, so he chose the Conservation of Magical Creatures class. Play to your strengths, Hallie. ”

My strength? Harley couldn't figure out which course her strengths were related to.

Although my sister's mouth is very poisonous and she devalues herself as useless, according to the scoring mechanism of the Infinite Library, her air combat level should be good, and even the attack on the ship that has not been fought in actual combat has passed the performance on the virtual battlefield. By the way, my level of information warfare is relatively poor, and I also lack experience in field command. But... But these have nothing to do with choosing a magic class, not to mention that the magic cannon of the magician machine is a completely different magic system! Hallie, who thinks as a machine girl, is crazy and doesn't know what to choose.

Neville was in a similar situation to Hallie, with his family sending him too many letters and giving him many different suggestions on course selection. Confused and nervous, Neville sat there looking at the course list, tongue sticking out, asking if he thought arithmetic divination sounded more difficult to learn than ancient scripts.

Dean simply left the choice to fate, using his wand to click on the list at random, and choose whichever class he clicked. Hermione was even more aggressive, and after repeated comparisons and found that she couldn't give up any of the classes, she simply chose them all. Anyway, I have the ability to be a doppelganger, and the ability to learn in parallel is no problem at all.

The rest of the people are similar, either following the advice of their parents and seniors, or simply choosing nonsense.

"Is that all there is to Hogwarts?"

Xana's fingers swiped over the course list, this list of courses had been read many times, Xana had preliminarily circled the two courses of ancient magic and protecting magical creatures, but Xana always felt that there should be a better choice.

"Huh?"

Dean was still poking around the list, but Xana noticed that when his wand stabbed into a part of the parchment, it actually emitted a wave of magical power. The curious Shana swiped over the place Dean had poked out, and a magic circle appeared in the center of the parchment.

Crash!

The course list suddenly became a lot longer, and a lot of courses that had never been there before popped up.

"What's wrong?"

"What kind of class is this?"

"Why didn't I find out."

The students gathered over and looked at the brand-new class schedule in Xana's hand.

"Alchemy?"

"Why do we have PE class?"

"Necromancy? It's a joke! ”

"What is plastic magic?"

There were almost twice as many new classes on the timetable, but many of them were crossed out with burnt black lines, and Shana approached Professor McGonagall with the timetable and was told that all the crossed out classes could not be registered, and that the rest should be chosen carefully.

"Miss Sakai, I'm glad you found the hidden course, but I'm sorry, we can't let you take most of the courses except for a few options. Due to the regulations of the Ministry of Magic, the shortage of teachers, and the low number of students enrolled, Hogwarts no longer offers these crossed out classes. ”

At this, Professor McGonagall sighed.

Alchemy has declined, and there is probably only one teacher left in the world, Nicol Lemay, who has just passed away.

Necromancy is more evil than black sorcery, and it was a formal course in ancient wars, but it is seriously out of place in the peaceful world of today. And after so many years, even Voldemort can only fur and summon a few Yin corpses at most. The plastic magic is similar, everyone can just set a fire and sprinkle some water, and don't even think about the big fireball.

In today's magical society, as long as the content related to combat is all scattered, the small number of lethal spells that have been handed down has greatly reduced the power, and after being barely deleted, they are either classified as Charms class or put into Defence Against the Dark Arts.

"It's all gone."

No wonder you have to hide it, either the policy doesn't allow it, or there is no teacher who can teach it, and you can't even find a self-study book. As for why they were just hiding instead of not writing at all, Professor McGonagall said that these lessons were drafted by the four founders and had not changed for more than a thousand years, so no one dared to change them.

"What about gym class?"

"This course is taught by centaurs in the Forbidden Forest, but there are too few students who sign up."

Xana had heard Harley talk about the centaurs in the Forbidden Forest, a strange group of people full of affection. Physical education classes are absolutely not allowed to sign up, and Xana doesn't want to have anything to do with guys who are discussing philosophy ♂.

Ultimately, Xana's chosen class is to protect magical creatures, ancient magic scripts, and natural magic.

Natural magic is one of the few hidden courses that can be taken other than physical education, and is taught by the elves of the Forbidden Forest. However, Professor McGonagall said that although the course could theoretically be held, whether Shana could learn or not depended on the negotiation with the elven tribe and the testing of Shana's qualifications. There are so few students who are gifted enough to learn natural magic, and even if some students discover hidden lessons every year, very few pass the pre-class test.

"Do you really want to learn natural magic?"

Hallie didn't expect Xana to choose this at all, our sisters are machine girls, no matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with flowers and trees.

"My sister is Gaia's mother's child, and we are also heroic spirits on Gaia's side, and in a way we are more children of nature than elves..."

Hallie, although it sounds a little reasonable, but I always feel that something is wrong (there is a backstage open, and the natural affinity of the machine girl can also max).

"By the way, what about you?"

Xana took Harley's timetable and frowned.

"The senior said that if I want to get good grades in the third grade, it is a good idea to choose divination..."

Hallie explained. In order to get Xana to agree, Harley also dragged Ron over, saying that the two had chosen the same course - protecting magical creatures and divination, so that they could help each other.

"Well, hopefully you can really help each other."

Although she felt a little little, considering the training of the Knights, Xana still agreed to the course selection of the two.

"We've all chosen divination, so let's come with Sister Xana."

So Xana added this class as well.

The Gryffindor's next Quidditch match was against the Hufflepuffs. Wood insisted that the team train after dinner every day, and now Hallie had little time to do other than train and complete various homework.

The night before Saturday's game, Harley had just returned to the dormitory after training when she saw a large crowd of men gathered at the staircase of the girls' dormitory. Is it now that everyone wants to have another Valentine's Day, and the single dogs will collectively raid the girls?

"Please give way, what's going on?"

When everyone saw Harley, they stepped out of the way, just as Percy roared from inside the girls' dormitory.

"It's a shame for Gryffindor, Harley... Rest assured, we're going to catch that guy. ”

These words made the second monk Harley, who had just returned, confused.

"Just look at it, please count it and see what else is missing."

Percy turned to her side, and Harley saw inside—her bedroom was a mess.

Rows and rows of bookshelves were toppled, the contents of suitcases were thrown everywhere, and clothes and skirts lay crumpled on the floor. The sheets were also ripped off the bed, the drawers of the bedside table were opened, and the contents were scattered on the mattress, and there were several pieces left on the side of the bed******* which was a serious act of theft, and the means were despicable! ”

Percy wields the important evidence he has just found at the door, the blue and white stripes that the thieves have accidentally lost, completely oblivious to Harley's face being redder than blood. This ** was found at the door, and referring to the situation next to the bed, Percy believed that the target of the thief was the girl *** There was actually a ** madman in Gryffindor House, which was a heinous crime that could never be forgiven

"I'll report back to Professor McGonagall and conduct a full search of the boys' dormitories, Gryffindor will not tolerate it..."

"Get it all out of here!"

Bang! Unable to take it anymore, Harley snatched the ** and pushed Percy out, then slammed the door shut.

It wasn't until late at night that Harley cleaned up the bedroom with the help of Shana and Hermione, but it didn't help it, it took too long to check it out. At present, Percy has no clues, the search of the boys' dormitory has not found any stolen goods, and Harley has not installed surveillance in the bedroom in accordance with the confidentiality and security regulations (Harley: Ann in the bedroom is too ghostly), I am afraid it will not be so easy to catch the criminal.

"Well, finally, to make sure how many were lost******* Xana put the last book back on the shelf.

"No road race! No Road Race! No Road Race! Something, it wasn't stolen! ”

Xana's teasing made Harley furious.

"What's missing? Don't tell me, this **mad sneaked in just with yours and masturbated in the house. That's fine, we can catch the culprit by testing the DNA directly. When the time comes, it must be executed. ”

"I've said it all! And a** or something without a Nat relationship! It's Riddle's diary that's gone! ”

"Riddle's diary?"

Who is Riddle? Xana is weird. More importantly, why does Harley have a stranger's diary? Could it be that during her vacation recuperation, Harley has been attacked by some scumbag-type character?

"No, I picked it up."

Harley explains to Xana the origin of the journal and what she knows from it.

"Someone dropped it in the toilet where we secretly boiled medicine, and then you stumbled upon how to communicate with this diary, and finally it told you that the last time the prisoner who opened the secret room was..."

"Hagrid. Yes, Riddle told me that Hagrid had released the monster and that he had let it go while Riddle was capturing him. ”

Harley projects her situation on the wall, explaining how she watched Riddle move every step of the way, and finally sees Riddle in the basement catching Hagrid feeding the monster, and how Hagrid gave up his life to cover the monster's escape.

"Then why didn't you tell us?"

“………”

Hallie was silent.

"Because Hagrid is our friend? Do you want to keep it hidden? ”

Hermione immediately thought about why Harley didn't say it, it was really embarrassing to find out that her friend was a criminal, should she report Hagrid? Everyone made up for it and reported the big guy who was a little silly, and everyone felt that they couldn't do it.

"On the surface, it seems logical. Hagrid loves large, strange fantastic creatures, and his greatest wish is to have a dragon, and he did so last year. Hagrid, who was still a teenager, would be interested if he heard that there was a monster hiding somewhere in the castle. And it's also very reasonable to think that Hagrid would feel that it was a bad idea to imprison that monster for so long, and that it should be given a chance to come out and move. ”

Xana began to analyze, and reasoning from the current clue seemed to make sense.

"But I accidentally didn't pull it while walking, so I killed someone?"

Hermione was frightened and quickly covered her mouth.

This is just Riddle's one-sided testimony. We don't have any more evidence that Hagrid was the killer. ”

Xana said that she would be here for the time being today, and that she would call Ron tomorrow to discuss it together.

"Riddle? I know this guy. ”

The next day, Ron hears the name and actually says he knows Riddle.

"If you wipe down a trophy with someone's name on it for an hour on end, you'll remember it."

At the beginning of the school year, Ron was sent by Filch to clean the trophies in the prize room (Xana was punished with that). Although most of them were quietly cleaned by Xana with magic, Ron also cleaned some of them, and Riddle's trophy was just within the range of his cleaning, and he was forced to wipe it by hand over and over again, so he naturally had an impression. Riddle was a student fifty years ago and received a special contribution award from Hogwarts for something.

It now seemed obvious that Riddle's merit was to stop the backroom attack at the time, so the school awarded him a special contribution trophy.

"Hagrid was expelled. And since Hagrid was driven away, the attacks must have stopped. Otherwise, Riddle wouldn't have won the prize. ”

Hallie was frustrated, and now Hagrid's suspicions were even greater.

"But there's one thing that doesn't matter, and Riddle's words aren't really credible."

Hearing Xana's words, Hallie's eyes lit up again.

"Riddle is looking for the wrong person? Maybe another monster hurt someone..."

"How many monsters do you think this place can hold up?"

Ron asked listlessly.

"There are a few monsters who don't know, but there is a very serious flaw in identifying Hagrid as a prisoner, and that is Hagrid's identity."

"Identity?"

"That's right. Legend has it that only the heir of Slydlin could control the monster, and Hagrid was a student of Gryffindor. Can you imagine that the heir of Slydrin is a Gryffindor and a goofy big guy? ”

As Xana finished speaking, Harley, Ron, and Hermione shook their heads in unison.

"The words left by the killer in the Madame Norris attack make it clear that he was a fanatical racist, can you imagine that Hagrid is that kind of guy? And it's a particularly insidious kind. Usually disguised in front of us kindly, in fact a madman like Hitler. Does Hagrid have this level of performance? And it can be played for decades. ”

Everyone shook their heads again, if Hagrid's guy had this ability, then it would definitely not be so easy to leak the taming method of the three-headed dog in the Philosopher's Stone incident.

"By the way, who was Hitler? Eh! ”

Ron, who is not long-eyed, gets a heavy blow and is dragged by Xana to review the history of World War II.
