"Why? I want to go home for Christmas, I'm so tired this semester. ”

Hermione pouted and coquettishly, pulling the professor's arm and dangling it, it was reasonable to stay in school on Christmas [fo] last year, what are you going to do in France this winter?

"There are a total of 11 ancient magical schools registered with the International Confederation of Wizards in the world, each with their traditional strengths, and even real mysteries unknown to other schools, and these eleven magic schools have three ...... in Europe."

The little girl understood, and she raised her hand: "I know, they are Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Beauxbatons School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and Durmstrang House, you are taking me to Beauxbatons?" ”

"Remember what happened to Nicol Lemay last year? The Headmaster excuses that it is his Philosopher's Stone, but it is actually a stolen Resurrection Stone, a trap to verify that Voldemort is really alive. ”

Su Ming touched her head, she was a little taller than last year, but her front teeth were still a little big.

"Remember, but what does it matter?"

Hermione looked helpless, she felt that if it was really like what was written in the book, the Philosopher's Stone would be much more useful than the Resurrection Stone.

Su Ming pulled her to the troll tapestry, and as soon as she saw the location, she knew what to do, she needed a confidential conversation room.

After a few steps back and forth, a door appeared on the wall, and she and the professor walked in, a heavily guarded chamber, like a prison interrogation room.

There wasn't even a sofa, just cold wooden stools.

She heard the professor close the door, and a gentle voice sounded behind her:

"I told Dumbledore that Voldemort is still alive. But he didn't believe it at all before, and he didn't think about Horcruxes, so he chose to grab the resurrection stone as bait, just because it was the patriarch's ring of the Gaunt family, and he felt that Voldemort might want to retrieve it if he was still alive. ”

Hermione pursed her lips, "Then why did you tell me it was the Philosopher's Stone?" ”

"Because Dumbledore didn't tell me anything and started the operation unilaterally, although he and I were allies, he didn't trust me at that time, and the words he gave to the professors were all philosopher's stones." Su Ming directly threw the pot to Lao Deng.

Hermione took a deep breath, she sat down on the stool, the torch casting a dangling shadow on the wall not far away: "Bragging, you always say that you are an ally with Dumbledore, but you are the Headmaster, you are just a professor." ”

"Still 'just' a professor? The wings are stiff, aren't they? ”

Su Ming pinched Hermione's little face, causing her to grab her hands in the air, and then lit a cigarette, sat on the bench opposite Hermione, and said in a deep tone:

"I wanted to get along with you as an ordinary person, but I didn't expect to get doubts in exchange. Well, I'm having a showdown, in fact, I also have my own magic academy, and I'm also the headmaster. ”

“......”

The little girl tilted her head with an expression of 'disbelief', she was accustomed to him always saying all sorts of unfounded things, and regarded them as a disease of genius.

She admits that he does know a lot and is very strong, but sometimes he is too imaginative to distinguish between dreams and real things......

"And principal, where is your school?"

"Not in this world."

"Hehe, is that in the Land of Dreams or in the Underworld?"

"I don't tell you, I'll take you to further study when you grow up, are you willing?"

"If you really have a school, then I really want to go."

In this way, Hermione inadvertently booked a journey for the future, taking a solid step towards becoming a Supreme Mage.

Su Ming's goal was achieved, and he had no intention of proving himself to the little girl now, so he brought the topic back to the trip to France: "Anyway, I talked to Dumbledore afterwards, and he deeply realized his mistake, and apologized to me, and said that Nicol Lemay owes me a favor......

"Wait." Hermione waved her hand: "Why did the headmaster say he was wrong, but it was Lemay who owed you a favor?" ”

"Because Lao Deng and Lemay have a good relationship, he originally said that he owed me, and I didn't think it was enough, so I said that it would be replaced by his friend Lemay's, so that Lemay owes me one, and he owes Lemay one, isn't everyone satisfied?"

Su Ming shook the ashes of his cigarette and said as he should.

Hermione's eyes were a little numb: "It turns out that this kind of thing 'owes once' can also be used as a bargaining chip?" ”

"Huh? Haven't you seen a war movie? The GIs in it are in the battle, you save me, I save you, at every turn, it's 'I owe you once', think about how messy the debt relationship of the people who survived after the end of the whole world war. ”

"Okay...... But you haven't said what my trip to Beauxbatons has to do with it? ”

Hermione sighed cutely, like a depressed bunny with no food.

Su Ming sat opposite her with his arms crossed and a cigarette in his hand, and said while smoking:

"In 1327 Nicolame entered Beauxbatons to study magic, where he met his future wife, Perenal, and the couple had great affection for the school, even though Beauxbatons was a few small dilapidated houses with a dozen students."

"I thought it was a girls' school..... And then what? ”

Hermione seemed intrigued, if only the History of Magic professor had talked about the past as vividly as it were.

"Lemay later invented the Philosopher's Stone, which he was able to convert into large quantities of gold, or money, in bulk. He used the money to build Beauxbatons the Enchanted Castle, build the largest garden square in Europe, and recruit a large number of teachers, making his alma mater a place comparable to Hogwarts. ”

Su Ming paused, took out two bottles of soda for Hermione to drink together, and then continued:

"Although he is not a school director or the owner of that school, he has a very strong voice, and I used the favors he owes me to you in exchange for the status of an international exchange student."

"We don't seem to have an exchange student system in our school, so is that really okay?"

Hermione held the soda bottle, looking a little hesitant, after all, the little girl was still a little afraid of unfamiliar places.

The professor just nodded, snuffed out the cigarette, and took a long sip of soda: "I said that if you have it, you must have it, starting with you...... After all, Dumbledore is not there, and Professor McGonagall can't stand up to the decision of the school board, and the board of directors, led by Mr. Malfoy, are very supportive of you going to other schools to study and exchange, which is definitely a good thing. ”

"Thank you, Professor."

Hermione was used to receiving special treatment, she didn't think much about it, and she didn't care about the game between adults, but she was very touched by the professor for using her precious favors.

"Your magic classes are well beyond the scope of your second year, so you're the best student when it comes to Beauxbatons." Su Ming stood up and touched the student's head: "Go prepare now, I'll tell you the goals of the new semester when you get there." ”
