Elena's method? This is the study method that Elena helped me develop!"

Hermione rolled her eyes, patted the thick stack of books, and said earnestly.

"Unless she can make knowledge into a dish and stuff it into your mouth, there is only one way to learn, Hagrid, are you just trying to get a new certificate of completion?

"But Hermione, Elena is still a little better than you, right?"

Rubeus Hagrid's lips pursed, carefully reminding the lion-like girl in front of her.

And I don't think she's immersed in so much homework and books all day, maybe there's something lighthearted...... Well, by the way, what kind of test-taking skills are there? Look, I'm sixty-two years old, and this information is really ......."

"That was before! She has to be locked up every day now, and her grades have dropped so badly!"

As if stabbed in some sore spot, Hermione Granger retorted quickly, unconvinced.

"Look! I've made a bet with her that if I get the first grade in the final exam this time...... Hmph!"

At this, the corners of the little beaver's mouth lifted happily, and his face was full of confidence.

That being said, there was a faint hint of worry and confusion in Hermione's bright brown eyes.

"I don't know what the white-haired ballboy thinks, even if she wasn't interested in the public trial, she wouldn't have taken advantage of that time to sneak up on Hogsmeade to play, so that she was later caught at roll call - although she didn't get any points, but she herself had to be locked up every day, and even her role as a teaching assistant in Potions was suspended by Professor Dumbledore's advice. ”

"That can't be helped, Elena she's so famous...... It's hard to sneak away on that occasion without being discovered......"

Hearing Hermione talk about it, Hagrid grinned and shrugged his shoulders.

I can't help but recall the little episode that happened at Hogwarts after the public trial some time ago.

............

With the end of the public trial, there were some small changes at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

Of course, for the vast majority of Hogwarts students, this public trial was not a cause for joy. The review that Professor Dumbledore had arranged before the public trial alone was enough to give the young wizards a headache.

Worst of all, since most of the adult wizards had time to arrive at the school to witness the trial, the school took the rare opportunity to hold the first ever "parent-teacher conference" at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry at the Quidditch pitch on the afternoon after the trial.

Although in the beginning, the purpose of the "parent-teacher conference" was only to drag the Ministry of Magic and most of the wizards to Hogwarts as much as possible, and to buy time for Elena to deal with the affairs of the Gringotts Wizarding Bank.

However, as the professors, deans of the colleges, and even faculty members such as Argus Filch and Rubeus Hagrid talked to the parents of the students, it was found that such a mode of communication was indeed necessary, on the one hand, the families learned about their children's learning in school, and on the other hand, the professors also knew that many of the students might have problems.

As for young wizards like Hermione, who were born in Muggle families, the school also compiled the relevant parent-teacher meeting notes and mailed them to the guardians of each child through the owl messenger to communicate with each child.

And the professors present are like stars, becoming the focus of the crowd.

Even Sybil Trelawney, a divination professor who was never well received and convincing, was surrounded by nervous middle-aged wizard aunts and little witches who were equally nervous.

As for those parents who can't squeeze into the crowd for the time being, they also show their talents, bringing their children through the crowd, skillfully finding the prefect of their respective houses, the president of the student council, or the children of familiar wizard friends to get together and exchange educational experiences.

In addition, the officials and media reporters of the Ministry of Magic, who have been eager to increase their social circle and learn more about Hogwarts, have also gained a lot in this unique "Hogwarts First Year 92 Parent-Teacher Conference".

Especially after the Hogwarts house-elves served a "Hogwarts-specific" dinner to all the wizards present, many parents, media reporters, and Ministry of Magic officials said that this form of parent-teacher meeting should be maintained as a tradition, preferably once a semester.

Connelly Fudge, as the Minister for Magic, even promised on the spot that when the next parent-teacher conference was held, the Ministry of Magic would fully assist Hogwarts in completing the invitation to some Muggle family parents, and treat it as an important administrative project of the British wizarding community every year.

All in all, except for the smiling little wizards, the atmosphere of the whole "parent-teacher meeting" is quite friendly.

As for a certain fairy queen who originally hoped to use this "parent-teacher meeting" as a cover, she was finally planted in this pit dug by herself-for her, the legendary "other people's child", almost all adult wizards would ask curiously a question or two, or plan to see with their own eyes whether the "little cabbage" grown in this orphanage grows delicious, and whether they want their children to learn more from her.

Of course, Elena, who had planned to sneak back to the Quidditch pitch again, could only reluctantly detain a black pot for herself, and obediently sat in the "Three Broomsticks Bar" in Hogsmeade Village next to the school, waiting for "Professor Albus Dumbledore", who had learned the news in advance, to inform "Professor Otto Apocalis" to arrest her.

You know, watching this public trial is treated as Hogwarts school time, in other words...... This behavior is tantamount to blatant skipping class, and it is also skipping class in the presence of the whole magical world......

That's it......

Her Majesty the Supreme Goblin Empress, the first time she appeared in the field of vision of the wizarding world was when she was declared confined for skipping class at Hogwarts in the presence of nearly 10,000 wizards - fortunately, not many people knew about it.

............

Meanwhile.

Hogwarts, in an empty classroom on the eighth floor of the castle.

"Ah, this could be a black spot for the rest of my life!"

Elena threw away the quill in her hand, snapped into the pile of parchment on the table, let out a feeble wail for the first time, and stared out the window at the sky.

The sky was clear and blue, like the color of forget-me-not flowers, and there was a sense of summer in the air.

The rainy weather in the Scottish Highlands is finally over, and it is the best weather Elena has encountered at Hogwarts in the past few months, but no matter how sunny the weather outside is, it has nothing to do with Elena now.

Because, everyone knows that she is still in "confinement".

For Elena, it may be more accurate to describe it as "the queen's working hours" or "correction and correction".

Since becoming the Goblin Queen of Gringotts Wizarding Bank, Elena has had to clean up the mess she had caused herself, most of which came from the liquidation and receipt of Gringotts' original assets, as well as the re-examination of external investment projects, the determination of a new banking and monetary system, and the adjustment of personnel and organizational structure......

Although with the help of Douglas, Leos and others, as the final decision-maker of many important decisions, Elena has a heavy workload even if she only issues some macro guidance directions and signs for confirmation.

After all, she had just joined the Gringotts Wizarding Bank, and her foundation had not yet been fully laid, so she had to keep an eye on many things herself.

Strictly speaking, the classroom she is in now is not a confinement room that is routinely used to punish students, but an exclusive office that has been re-cleaned and renovated from the abandoned classroom where she played piano music when she first came to school.

The Steinway black grand piano belonging to Grindelwald is still quietly placed in the window position in front of the classroom, and the ottoman has been magically adjusted to the most comfortable height for Elena, so that she can play the piano at any time to relieve her boredom.

Behind the piano, the original accumulation of all kinds of miscellaneous items has been cleared out, and it has become a small independent office divided into a rest area and an office area.

The only highlight of British cuisine is their beautiful and cozy afternoon tea culture.

And in this regard, the house-elves of Hogwarts have undoubtedly shown their due professionalism, and with a little mention from Elena, it is easy to make the snack she wants on the basis of the original cookie baking.

Lying on the table like a salted fish with lost dreams, Elena rolled to the edge of the table, looking at the delicate pastries stacked on the small coffee table, thinking about which few small biscuits should be eliminated to soothe her sorrow.

"It's good to have my cute little snacks, otherwise how would I live this day......"

Elena hung her fingers in the air and picked them up, muttering quietly and making a lovely sound.

"Soda crackers, whole wheat crackers, pretzels, butter shortbread, chocolate chip cookies, waffle wafers, coconut waffles, macaroons, yogurt fruit sandwich cookies...... Well, it's decided, I'll eat you this time!"
