The October cumulonimbus clouds had not dispersed over everyone's heads, and the rain continued to fall, and a musty smell could be faintly heard in the corner of the castle.

For the upcoming Halloween dinner, Hagrid had to spend a lot of time rescuing the water-soaked pumpkins in the pumpkin field before they would be soaked in the rain.

On weekends, Albert went to Hagrid's hunting lodge for afternoon tea and listened to him casually talk about Professor Kettleber's hospitalization. ”

"When?" asked Albert, rubbing his teeth.

"Yesterday. Hagrid sighed softly, "Professor Kettleber bought a house in Hogsmeade and is going to settle there to accompany those little cuties in the future. When sorting out his belongings, he was tripped by a mischievous sniff, but fortunately, the house-elf who sent the food to him found it in time, and he is still recuperating in the St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Illnesses. ”

"Professor Kettleber may have to retire early. Albert was not surprised, the professor's health was not very good, "If you want to apply for the position of a professor of protecting magical creatures, you should think about what you want to teach everyone in advance, don't underestimate the risks of getting along with magical creatures, students are not as rough and thick as you, they can't afford to toss." ”

Hagrid looked at Albert in surprise, and the other party said bluntly that he would fill the vacancy of Professor Kettleber and become the Conservation Magical Beasts Professor at Hogwarts.

"You can take the time to visit Professor Kettleber and ask him for tips on teaching. Albert cautioned, "Don't bring anything strange into class, especially magical creatures that might harm students. ”

Albert was skeptical that his words would have any effect, but as a friend, he should still be reminded.

As he left the hunting lodge, Hagrid was still in a daze, as if thinking about what Albert had just said.

No way, Albert's words are very accurate, maybe he can really apply for the protection of magical beasts professor?

However, Hagrid felt it compelled to probe Mrs. Grapeland to see if she wanted to apply for the position of Professor of Magical Beasts.

On the way back to the castle, Albert meets Ginny Weasley. The oncoming red-haired girl gave him an inexplicable sense of strangeness, and Albert looked up to meet her gaze, and found that Ginny Weasley's eyes seemed to have lost the agility that a child should have, causing his pupils to dilate slightly.

"Is it controlled by Voldemort?" Albert walked away, only to look back at Ginny's back, and fell into a brief hesitation.

Insert a sentence, the app I've been using recently, [ Source Change Artifact APP] Android and Apple mobile phones are supported!

If you put down Ginny Weasley now, you will definitely be able to find Tom Riddle's diary from the other party's body, as long as you destroy the Horcruxes, there will be no more attacks, but your own panel tasks will most likely be completed, and it is difficult to explain this matter to Dumbledore.

Albert had never underestimated Dumbledore, and he would definitely be seen as flawed.

Once can be accidental, twice by chance, and it is worth Dumbledore's careful consideration.

"Forget it, just be careful, and let the rest take its course. Albert raised his hand and pushed the frame of the mirror as he continued towards the castle.

It's not hard to guess what Ginny Weasley, or Tom Riddle, wants to do.

The crowing of a rooster is deadly to the basilisk.

Tom Riddle was naturally well aware of this, so he would never want roosters around the castle.

"Should I have a rooster as a pet?" Albert muttered to himself, the idea was quickly put on the back burner, it was too much trouble to have a rooster or something, and he thought it would be a good idea to get a toy that would make a rooster crow, but he didn't know if it would be useful for the basilisk.

"The 'screaming chicken' in my previous life was very popular. After careful consideration, Albert felt that the "screaming chicken" was a good selling point, and it didn't have to be a scream, it could be other sounds, and it could be used as a joke in the future.

As for selling the 'screaming chicken' as a talisman after the attack, Albert didn't think about it, after all, it was easy to be targeted, and it was estimated that no one would buy that thing as a talisman.

After Albert walked away, Tom Riddle turned his head to look at Albert's departing back, and for some reason a sudden and inexplicable anxiety suddenly surged in his heart just now.

Tom didn't realize that he was almost cold, and if Albert had just subdued Ginny, he would be able to arrange his Horcruxes in a matter of minutes.

Tom had heard Ginny mention that the Muggle wizard named Albert Anderson was said to be a genius and had recently won the International Wizarding Chess Championship.

Of course, Albert Anderson was an insignificant existence to Tom, he cared more about Harry Potter and wanted to know how the young Harry defeated Voldemort, so he didn't pay too much attention to Albert, even if the other party was a famous genius in Hogwarts school.

After all, Tom Riddle has always been a genius in school, and he really doesn't have much interest in the so-called genius, so it's a good choice to treat the other party as a prey.

The killing of such a genius by a basilisk is sure to cause a sensation.

Suddenly I'm looking forward to it!

When Hagrid was found at home, Tom didn't go after the rooster in the coop. After a walk around the hunting lodge, head straight back to the castle.

When Albert returned to the castle, he noticed that he had a new mission, and before he could check it, he saw Hermione hurrying towards hermione, panting and telling him about the last time.

Hermione brought up the idea of establishing the Defence Against the Dark Arts Club and inviting Lockhart as a mentor, which won the support of a group of Lockhart fans, but instead of being organized by her, a senior student who worshipped Lockhart formed a club called "Worship of Gilderoy Lockhart".

Hermione soon discovers that this club is not what she had imagined, so she wants to invite Albert to form their own Defence Against the Dark Arts club.

"I'm sorry, I'm afraid not. Albert shook his head and refused.

He was busy, with twelve classes to take and several clubs to attend, so he simply didn't have time to go to the Defence Against the Dark Arts club.

However, Albert gave Hermione some advice on inviting Harry Potter to join the club.

"Is this really possible?"

"Didn't you notice that Professor Lockhart paid special attention to Harry Potter?" Albert reminded, "If you want to succeed, you need to pull Harry Potter into the club, because Lockhart is only interested in Harry Potter, and believe me, as long as Harry Potter is in the Defence Against the Dark Arts, Lockhart will be more than willing to come and guide you." ”

"Why would Professor Lockhart be interested in Harry?" Hermione was puzzled.

"I don't know, maybe Lockhart is interested in Harry defeating the Mysterio!" Albert casually made an excuse to Hermione, knowing that a club that started with learning Defence Against the Dark Arts had no appeal to Lockhart.

Only Harry can attract Lockhart.

Although Hermione still still hadn't understood what Albert meant, she knew that Harry was simply avoiding Lockhart, and that he would not be willing to join the Defence Against the Dark Arts Club at all, unless he ...... Hermione quickly came up with a solution.
