Chapter Fifty-Six: Nine Out of Ten Men Are Bald

From the moment they saw the Daily Prophet, William and Roy thought that Professor Snape would be released this holiday.

In fact, this report first pulled out the former Defense Against the Dark Arts professors and whipped them.

This leads Professor Snape to investigate the smuggler Robert during the summer vacation, regardless of his personal safety.

Such a great professor, you parents, can bear to let him enter Azkaban?

That's what Dumbledore is building.

For a time, all public opinion was to let him ...... Ahem, acquit him.

Afterwards, Dumbledore attended Snape's hearing and gave important evidence.

It turned out that Snape had spent the entire summer with the famous magizoologist Newt Scamander.

As a result, Snape was acquitted in court.

During Christmas, everyone was paying attention to the Snape attack, and the Daily Prophet was trying to heat up the topic so that everyone's attention could be focused on the Hogwarts professors.

The melon-eating crowd seems to have forgotten who attacked the Ministry of Magic, as if it had never happened.

The day before the Christmas break ended, William took Bobo tea and boarded the Hogwarts Express.

Bobo Tea sat in William's arms, and the two looked out the window at the scenery.

During this time, Bobo Tea's body grew a little faster, the weather was too cold, and it was reluctant to move, so it nested in Anne's bed all day long.

William bought him a cat climbing frame and prepared to place it in the dormitory so that he could exercise more.

After a few moments, Cedric knocked on the door and entered, followed by Cho.

Waiting for Autumn to sit down, Cedric locked the door of the carriage.

Then he hid behind the door again, glancing warily through the window before he sat back down.

It was undoubtedly not wise to stay alone in the same compartment with Cedric. If it weren't for Youqiu here, William would have worried about his safety.

Autumn obviously thinks the same way.

Cedric didn't pay attention to the expressions of the two, and he said mysteriously, "I'll go back and ask my dad about the attack." ”

Cedric's dad is a key member of the Department of Magical Beasts Management and Control at the Ministry of Magic, and he must know the inside story.

"My dad didn't want to say it, but on Christmas night, I got him drunk." Cedric smirked.

William and Autumn both looked at Cedric speechlessly, and such a cheating son?

Cedric glared at William, "Still listening?" ”

"Listen, listen......" William said quickly.

Whoever has the intelligence in these years is the uncle.

Cedric lowered his voice like a second-hand trafficker and said, "My dad told me that the Magical Beasts Management and Control Division was not attacked at all. ”

"What?" Qiu frowned and said, "How is this possible?" Recently, during the Christmas holidays, the Daily Prophet has been reporting on Professor Snape, and about the attack, and about it for a semester. ”

"It's not." Cedric leaned back in his chair and shook his head, "The Ministry of Magic was indeed attacked, but the place of the attack was not the Department of Magical Beasts, but ...... Department of Mysteries! ”

"Department of Mysteries? What's that for? ”

William and Cho were not born into wizarding families, and neither knew anything about the institutional composition of the Ministry of Magic.

"The Department of Mysteries, which stands for top secret...... No one knows what it's up to. Cedric whispered.

"Your dad doesn't know?"

"Well, he doesn't know either, he only knows that the Department of Occult Affairs is in charge of conducting secret research.

The vast majority of the contents of this department are highly classified. Only a handful of wizards in the Ministry of Magic can know what's in the department.

Wizards who work in the Department of Mysteries are known as the Silencers. ”

Cedric thought for a moment and said, "But there is a common saying that the Minister of Magic used the Department of Mysteries to develop a terrible poison and secretly drugged people with whom he disagreed......"

William rolled his eyes.

Where is this common saying, it is written in "Singing and Singing".

Cedric, a loyal reader of the magazine, began to try to spread his "conspiracy theories" again.

"In short, it's mysterious, and it may contain a power that can turn the entire wizarding world upside down." Cedric said.

William nodded and said, "It's really possible, something very important should be lost there, so important that it will cause a serious riot if it is known."

Otherwise, Minister Fudge would not have concealed it like this, and it was the Department of Mysterious Affairs that was attacked, but he deliberately said that it was the Department of Magical Beasts Management. ”

The loss of a few smuggled magical creatures is obviously not too serious to even be taken seriously by the public.

"What could be lost?" Cho worried.

"Maybe it's a very powerful weapon." Cedric shrugged, "I heard my dad say that maybe the Death Eaters weren't willing to accept the death of the mysterious man and were ready to resurrect him...... Anyway, it is forbidden to spread this matter. ”

The three of them couldn't analyze anything, so in order to pass the time, they played the landlord.

William was a master at this, and he couldn't have made the mistake of "seventeen cards were killed in seconds", so he won a lot of snacks along the way.

On the first night of school, at the dinner party, everyone saw Professor Snape, who had disappeared for most of the semester.

He looked extremely thin, his face was yellow, and he looked like he was malnourished.

At the principal's suggestion, everyone applauded and welcomed his return.

The twin brothers applauded the most enthusiastically, which is probably the legendary black out of feelings.

Professor Snape remained as cold as ever, but thanks to the atmosphere, he drank several glasses of wine and seemed to talk more.

I don't know if it's an illusion, after not seeing each other for so long, William always felt that Professor Snape's hairline was a lot higher.

You know, in England, there are nine out of ten men who are bald, and a man of Dumbledore's age and long hair is already a rare species.

Professor Snape is now in his thirties, which is the golden time for baldness, and the pressure of teaching at Hogwarts is already high, and he is still the head of Slytherin, so the pressure is even greater.

Not to mention that being arrested by the Ministry of Magic during this time is simply emaciated.

If Professor Snape started losing his hair as a result, William thought it was entirely possible.

While William was still thinking seriously about Professor Snape's hairline, Dumbledore happily patted Snape on the shoulder and pulled out a gift box.

Hey, why is it so familiar?

William remembered, wasn't this the shampoo and conditioner he had Dumbledore pass on on his behalf?

Wait, if Professor Snape hadn't been bald, he wouldn't have had a problem sending a shampoo, but now that he has this problem, wouldn't he be looking for death if he still sent this thing?

Sure enough, Dumbledore pointed at William, and Snape stared at him like a viper.

William now regrets that he should have given him a set of perm machines!
