At Hogwarts, absenteeism can be a big or small thing.

Generally speaking, it depends on the severity of the professor and the attitude of the dean of the college on the matter.

So, the moment Snape slipped the three oversleeping witches to Professor McGonagall's office, Elena felt as if Hermione had been drained of her soul - and she and Luna Lovegood belonged to Gryffindor House according to the schedule.

To make matters worse, it seems that the news was received in advance that Professor Dumbledore was also in Professor McGonagall's office.

"Miss Granger, Miss Caslana...... I'm disappointed in both. There are quite a few latecomers at Hogwarts, but absenteeism is rare, and unfortunately, the two of you ...... Well, all three of them may need to be confined. ”

Dumbledore spoke uncharacteristically, his blue eyes glancing deeply at Elena.

Elena frowned, a little unwilling on her face.

"Does it have to be like this? I think ......."

"I hope you can understand that this is a responsibility for your future. ”

The decision to impose a penalty on confinement was quickly decided.

Two days in total, which is exactly the weekend of the next two days.

Perhaps learning the lesson of Halloween, at the suggestion of Professor Dumbledore, the confinement location was chosen in the History of Magic classroom on the fourth floor of the castle, and the punishment content was - close the small black room codeword!

Since the release of "New Singing and Singing", the attention of the wizarding world and Hogwarts school to this publication has increased almost every week, and the "Bite of Hogwarts" section has received a lot of attention.

After all, in an age of lack of material and spiritual entertainment, it is difficult to find a similar food-only section in the wizarding world, even among non-wizarding worlds, and after a large number of letters, Dumbledore decided to strip this section from the original magazine content and create a new publication that belonged entirely to Hogwarts.

However, in this way, the content of the original issues alone is certainly not enough to form a normal publication.

Even though "A Bite of Hogwarts" was originally positioned as a monthly magazine, there was still a huge gap in the text content and picture materials, so Dumbledore simply took this closed opportunity to lock the three of Elena in the history of magic classroom, allowing them to concentrate on the creation of the new issue.

As for the specific punishment, it is based on the assumption that Elena once casually mentioned.

The daily lockdown starts before lunch and lasts until the last half hour before curfew in the evening.

The Hogwarts kitchen prepares a batch of delicious dishes according to Elena's menu and places them on the table at the front of the classroom, and every time the girls complete a task, such as writing a 10,000-word manuscript, they can eat a plate.

And if they don't finish it, they will also be provided with the most basic coarse grain bread and fresh water to ensure that they do not starve to death.

All in all, for two days, the three girls were confined to the empty classroom almost all of the time, except for going back to the dormitory every night to sleep and solving their daily physical needs.

......

Outside the door of the History of Magic classroom.

Grindelwald glanced at the white-haired dumplings in the classroom, and turned his head a little worriedly.

"Albus, you're ...... Are you really not afraid of that little guy's revenge afterwards?"

"If she really finds it unacceptable, then she won't agree. ”

Dumbledore shook his head and said calmly.

"Until things are completely settled on Quirinus's side, I think it's the most appropriate decision to protect her for the time being - haven't we discussed that before? I think she should know that. ”

"So, what are you going to do?"

"St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries has agreed to provide Professor Quirrell with a special private room. ”

Dumbledore groaned for a few seconds, then looked at Shen Sheng.

"Probably before Christmas, he will be treated in the hospital until he has fully recovered from his injuries, and then he will consider whether to return to school to continue teaching. The only problem is ......"

"I understand, I'll keep an eye on him until he's transferred to the hospital tomorrow. ”

"There's also the Defense Against the Dark Arts course, after all, there are so many students in the whole school, you might as well take the time to prepare a little, if nothing else, you'll be substitute for much longer this time than the previous one. ”

"Rest assured, Albus, I'm no worse than you in my knowledge of how to defend against the dark arts. ”

The soul is a wonderful being, and even wizards don't know much about it.

There was no doubt that Voldemort had temporarily left Professor Quirrell's body, and at least after being examined by several professors, there had been no flaws - but Grindelwald, as a master of spells, could vaguely sense that the spell that had entangled in Quirrell's soul had not dissipated, in other words, Voldemort had completely given up on this rare human power.

On the other hand, without the blessing of Voldemort's power, it was obviously difficult for the young wizard to withstand such a serious injury on his own, which was one of the main reasons why he had to be transferred to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Illnesses for treatment.

Under such circumstances, Elena, who was the fuse of the whole incident, naturally had to find a way to temporarily isolate her.

Whether Voldemort/Quirrell wants to take revenge, or Elena plans to cut down the grass and eradicate it without stopping, it was a very undesirable thing for Albus Dumbledore.

Maybe the latter will be slightly better......

However, considering that Quirinus Quirrell's identity was not flawed at this time, in case Elena reacted irrationally in public, even with Dumbledore's explanation, she would not be able to continue studying at Hogwarts.

Elena also knows this in her heart.

It's just that understanding is understanding, and what should be written down in a small book will definitely not be less.

......

The next two days were uneventful, with no incidents.

"Whew, it's finally over. ”

Elena moved her sore wrist and rubbed her arms around Hermione.

In front of the three of them, a stack of parchment was now neatly stacked.

If you add a reasonable layout and fill in the picture materials provided by Luna, it is completely enough to print the manuscript of "A Bite of Hogwarts" for more than two months, and even save part of the manuscript.

This means that from now until Christmas, they no longer have to rack their brains to think about manuscripts every day.

"It's good that Hermione is here, otherwise you wouldn't have been able to finish writing so much content in two days. ”

"I'll never skip school again, and you, Elena, don't run to my bed after the lights go out!"

Hermione shook her wrist as well and gave Elena an unhappy look, a satisfied smile on her face.

"But ......"

"I really didn't expect that in two days, we could write close to 100,000 words. This confinement can be regarded as a bit of gain, at least in the future, it will not be so difficult to write any magical academic reports. ”

"Well, go back early to rest and take a shower~ Tomorrow is another full day of classes, and I don't want to be punished and confined anymore. ”

The three of them walked out of the history of magic classroom and walked in the direction of the dormitory.

On the other hand, St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Illnesses has also transferred a special patient.

With the admission of this patient, five elderly wizards in their sixties and seventies were also admitted to the five adjacent wards at the same time, each of whom was in good spirits, but he insisted that he had fallen under some extremely terrible curse and had to recuperate in the hospital.

The hospital is not a hotel, so you can't just stay as you want!

The director of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries wanted to shout out at these old wizards who were pretending to be sick like this......

But......

They gave too much gold gallons......

Moreover, they also have a letter of introduction from Professor Dumbledore, hoping that the hospital will cooperate as much as possible...... Well, that's the main thing.
