Chapter 280: Good Night and Insomnia
Hogwarts, 2nd floor of the castle, History of Magic classroom.
Professor Binns probably wouldn't and wouldn't bother to lie - he could have remained silent forever if he wanted to.
Of course, even if he is not lying, what he says is necessarily not the whole truth.
But this does not detract from the general clarity and reliability of the entire historical context, at least for the time being, there is no "person" in the entire wizarding world who is more authoritative than Professor Binns, who has personally experienced all of history.
Elena looked at the silent young wizards in the classroom, and felt a dull and uneasy atmosphere in the air, and although the whole classroom was quiet, there was a terrifying power brewing in this silence. Everyone continued to stare at Professor Binns, hoping that he would continue to speak.
No doubt Professor Binns was aware of the unsettling atmosphere.
He stared at the students in the classroom with dazed eyes, and saw that every face turned to him.
Professor Binns suddenly poured out a deep sense of regret, making these little guys face the truth in the first class, what did he just say - in the face of the will of the entire wizarding world and even the whole world, these fledglings who have just stepped into the wizarding world, even if they know the truth, what can they do except increase their troubles?
"Alright, that's it. ”
Professor Binns waved his hand a little tiredly, slowly lowered his head, and fiddled with the lesson plan in his hand.
"This is a unanimous decision by the magical governments of various countries, and if you are still interested in the subsequent history, you can get the right to study it yourself after you pass the exam in the history of magic. The prerequisite is that you need to pass each year's History of Magic exam and . If you want to pass the exam, you need to master the things first, rather than delve into them too far and wide, which may confuse your knowledge. ”
In any case, if it is only used as a measurement coordinate in the time dimension, the Gregorian calendar can still be relied on to describe and record historical facts. If you will, let us go back to the present history, to the real, credible, reliable facts that we have left, that are suitable for you to learn and remember!"
As he spoke, Professor Binns cleared his throat again, let out a cough like broken chalk, flipped through the notebook, and continued to read the awkward names and boring dates in his unchanging dry, low, monotonous, lethargic voice.
Merely......
This time, no one in the class was distracted.
Again, no one raised their hands to ask questions—all that was left of the room was the sound of Professor Binns lecturing and the rustle of quills on the paper.
......
"I just don't understand one thing," Hermione said, holding her textbook, looking at Elena and Hannah in confusion, "Why hasn't the wizarding world considered reconciling with the non-wizarding world after the Ministry of Magic was established? ”
At this time, class was over, and they were packing up their textbooks and notes, ready to leave the classroom.
As if all the energy of Professor Binns had been exhausted, there were no more stories in the subsequent lectures on the history of magic, and when the bell rang, Professor Binns silently closed the lesson plan and disappeared into the blackboard without saying a word.
This made the little wizards who had been holding back for a whole class more and more uncomfortable, as if the shouts were forced to be pressed into the deepest part of their hearts.
"Maybe they tried, but they failed. ”
Elena shook her head and whispered, but didn't explain why.
Regarding this period of history, she only happened to come from the Wizarding Examination Board in her previous life?.. T. What you learned in the test questions:
The newly formed British Ministry of Magic had sent a special delegation to contact the Muggle monarchs, William III and Mary II, in the hope that Muggle law would recognize and protect wizards – an attempt that had apparently failed. Non-magical governments have only promised to maintain a certain degree of cooperation, but have refused any superficial recognition or protection.
However, these stories from the world of books, until the corresponding historical materials are found for secondary verification, Elena naturally will not easily tell anyone, at most as a background introduction.
In fact, after this section of magical history, Elena had vaguely guessed what the predicament Grindelwald and Dumbledore had faced back then—and if nothing else, it should be the one she faced in the near future.
"It seems like a more difficult task than I imagined......
Elena sighed silently in her heart, feeling that her hair seemed to be a little gray, "It seems that it is not enough to just help Hogwarts earn a lot of gold gallons. If you want to pry the whole world, you need more fulcrums...... The point is, where are they?"
Seeing that Elena didn't have much desire to talk to Hermione, the rest of the young wizards who originally wanted to come over to talk stopped one after another, silently put away their textbooks and notebooks, and left the history of magic classroom with their own concerns.
"See you tomorrow, then. Good night, Elena......"
Standing at the fork of the marble staircase on the second floor, Hermione held the "History of Magic: Hardcover Collector's Edition" that she had just acquired, glanced at Elena with some concern, and stopped talking.
"Don't worry, it's just that I'm a little tired all of a sudden, and I should be fine for a night's sleep. Elena stepped forward and hugged Hermione gently, saying in a relaxed tone, "Good night, Hermione." ”
Hannah shook her golden braids, smiled and patted Elena's face.
"Don't worry, I'm here, this road idiot white-haired dumpling won't get lost. ”
"I'm not a road idiot!"
Elena puffed out her cheeks, the little gurgies on her head shaking angrily, and retorted without thinking.
"No, you are!" X2
Little Beaver and Little Iron Girl responded in unison.
Looking at the two loli who seemed to have reached a strange strategic alliance, a subtle sense of loss rose in Elena's heart - it's amazing, these two wings actually started to tease together, it's time to take care of it!
"Hmph, looks like I need to let you know who's in charge at Hogwarts!"
Without any hesitation, Elena opened her bow left and right, and directly launched an area attack.
"Hahahaha, it's so itchy. ”
"Ahh
"Oops, don't scratch my waist......"
"Boom ~ Pain pain, don't pull me ......"
After the three little loli were playing around at the staircase for a while, they suddenly stopped in unison, glanced at each other's embarrassed appearances, and couldn't help laughing.
"So...... Good night. Elena, Hannah. ”
"Good night, Hermione. ”
"See you tomorrow. ”
After tidying up her clothes a little, Elena waved at Hermione with a relaxed face, and Hannah Abbott took her hand and obediently walked towards the Hufflepuff common room downstairs. However, the dullness that had been pressing on her heart since she came out of the history of magic classroom inadvertently dissipated a lot.
Whatever the past and the future, at least for now, it seems too far away for them.
However, what Elena doesn't know is......
Meanwhile, in a small village far away, a little girl with whom she wore the same necklace once again lost sleep......
