Chapter 238: She's a Respectable Professor

Zhang Xu, who returned to the dormitory, lay on the bed and muttered "I really want to be a salted fish" and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Zhang Xu met Professor Barburing on his way to the cafeteria.

Professor Babling didn't seem to be in good spirits, and the two dark circles under his eyes were about to catch up with Zhang Xu's Animagus form.

"Good morning, Professor Babling." Zhang Xu greeted, "Why didn't you sleep well last night?" ”

"Good morning, Zhang." "I didn't sleep last night, and I've already written my paper. ”

After speaking, Professor Barburing handed a roll of parchment to Zhang Xu.

"You have to take a break, it's not good if you fall asleep in class." Zhang Xu said jokingly.

Zhang Xu said as he skimmed through the paper on the parchment.

Essay ...... well written Zhang Xu didn't understand them all......

In the study of black magic, Zhang Xu's level is not enough.

If Zhang Xu wanted to fully understand this paper, he would have to go to the library and look up the information while reading it.

If you only look at the conclusion, you can see that the paper evaluates this magic as extremely vicious black magic.

Zhang Xu's attention was not on the paper itself, he saw that the photos of the wounds in the paper were written with the names of the guinea pigs, and he knew that if this paper was published, this alone would be enough to make the British wizarding world fry.

Zhang Xu handed back the paper that he had browsed to Professor Babling, who took the paper and said: "I'll go and send the paper to the Magic magazine now, I said hello to them before, and they left a front spot for me, the latest issue will be released the day after tomorrow, I have to hurry." ”

When Professor Babling walked past Zhang Xu, Zhang Xu heard Professor Babling whisper, "I just use my own way to protect my students. ”

"Go to the owl post office in Hogsmeade, I'm afraid the owl room at school is being monitored." Zhang Xu said to Professor Barbling.

Zhang Xu didn't expect that the first person to stand up in this matter was not Professor McGonagall and their deans, and Professor Barburing, who was usually inconspicuous.

In the wizarding world where knowledge is power, researchers like Professor Barburing have a high status.

With Professor Barburen's reputation in the wizarding world's research circles, the resources she can mobilize are terrifying.

Think about it, if Yuan Da Druid said to a farmer, "The rice you grow is not delicious", then the family would have to grow sweet potatoes instead.

McGonagall taught them their long administrative work, which may have taught them to compromise and back down.

But the relatively simple Professor Barburing does not have so many concerns, she uses her best efforts to help her students purely out of love for her students.

Perhaps her combat effectiveness was not high, so that Zhang Xu ignored her existence before.

But it has to be said that Professor Barburing is one of the purest and most respectable professors in the entire Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and she is the only one who stands up when the students are hurt and the other professors are indifferent.

When Zhang Xu came back to his senses, he had already finished his breakfast and sat down in the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom.

Zhang Xu suddenly found that the atmosphere in the classroom was a little strange, not so much preparing for class, but preparing for battle.

And the students kept turning their heads and looking at themselves sitting in the last row with the eyes of "I'll see you later".

Many classmates who walked in behind Zhang Xu patted him on the shoulder when they passed by him, and encouraged him with words such as "come on", "it's up to you", and "don't lose to Gryffindor".

Zhang Xu wanted to jump up and point to their noses and ask, you guys don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement, and you don't think there are many brides when you drink my wine, right?

Why do you all think I'm going to make trouble today!

Although I'm not afraid of Umbridge, it doesn't mean that I will take the initiative to stir things up.

And Anthony Goldstein, you are a prefect, what do you mean that you go up first, and then look at me? Are you going to do "Umbridge is miserable"?

Without waiting for Zhang Xu to react, the class bell rang.

Umbridge walked into the classroom and could see that she was in bad spirits, her dark face looking angry and nervous at the same time.

Professor Zhang understands her feelings, everyone is a professor, put yourself in the shoes of the students, from the first class for a week, no one will be in a good mood.

Umbridge finished her teaching philosophy with a straight face, then arranged the reading task, and then glared at the students in the class, as if waiting for some student to come forward and make trouble.

The students of Eagle House lived up to Umbridge's expectations, and Terry Bout was the first to raise his hand.

"Do you have any questions about the text?" Umbridge asked after getting Terry to his feet.

"Yes, Professor Umbridge." Terry said, "Do we need to practice using spells?" ”

"Obviously," Umbridge replied in as calm a tone as he could, "we're going to learn defensive spells in a safe, risk-free way." ”

"I see, thank you, Professor Umbridge." Terry bowed slightly to Umbridge and sat down.

Such an obedient student made Umbridge a little uncomfortable for a moment, and she was stunned for a moment after Terry sat down.

Immediately after, Michael Corner raised his hand.

After Umbridge asked him to ask questions, Michael stood up and said, "Professor Umbridge, as emphasized in the first volume of Miranda Goshak's Standard Spells, that spells must be practiced repeatedly to become proficient. So we don't practice using mantras, so how do we master them proficiently? ”

Umbridge's face darkened a little, and she replied, "The Ministry of Magic believes that theoretical knowledge can help you pass exams more effectively, and after all, the purpose of the school is to get students to pass exams. So you just need to master the theory. ”

After thanking Umbridge, Michael sat down.

Seeing that the students in this class didn't seem to be as unruly as the others, Umbridge was also quietly relieved.

Then it was Kevin Entwisel's turn to raise his hand.

Kevin asked, "Professor Umbridge, what are we going to do if we are in danger?" Take "The Theory of Magical Defence" and open the relevant chapters, and then tell the other party that we are going to do this, so please hurry up and catch them? ”

The students in the class laughed, and Zhang Xu laughed too.

And Umbridge's face, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, grew darker and darker.

"I don't think you're going to be attacked in my class." "You don't think you're going to be attacked in class." ”

At this point, Anthony raised his hand, and it took him two minutes to get permission from Umbridge to ask a question.

"I'm sorry, Professor Umbridge." Anthony said with a worried look on his face, "When we were in our first year, the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor was a dark wizard who had infiltrated Hogwarts. The following year, our Defence Against the Dark Arts professor released the basilisk from the castle. In the fourth year, our professor was a Death Eater in disguise. We've met three Defence Against the Dark Arts professors in four years who have done us harm, so please forgive us for our concerns. After all, less than a week after the start of school, several students were seriously injured because they were locked up by you. ”

The students in the class kept nodding their heads with "yes, yes" expressions.

At this moment, Umbridge realized that the students who asked the question played her together. Looking at the students nodding their heads together in the seats, it seems that the whole class has a share.

Umbridge blushed and streaks of veins on her forehead protruded, arguing, "I'm a professor appointed by the Ministry of Magic, and I can't intentionally hurt a student...... Wounded! …… Can confinement be considered intentional harm? ”
