After Phyllis left the classroom, these eleven or twelve-year-old children breathed a sigh of relief, and some classmates couldn't help but mutter, "Professor Kate is so scary!" ”

Unlike Professor McGonagall's strictness, whether it is asking questions in class or assigning coursework—three papers in a semester is really not much; Unlike Professor Snape's gloomy viciousness, Professor Kate does not make personal attacks on students at every turn. Professor Kate's scary lies in his unique temperament.

Cold...... As if death, Leah said in her heart, Dad didn't say that Professor Kate was such a person.

It was the last class of the afternoon, and the last class of the first week, and after Leah packed up her textbooks, she didn't go to the auditorium to eat, but went straight back to the dormitory - I don't know what's going on, she just doesn't have an appetite.

Early the next morning, Leah arrived at the school library with a bag of textbooks.

Whether it is a child living in a wizarding family or an ordinary family, after receiving the admission notice from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, his heart must be full of curiosity and joy. But this euphoria definitely doesn't include a lot of homework.

It's two days, and it's Saturday, so why not relax and wait until tomorrow to do your homework?

That's what many first-year wizards think, and they're curious about this castle, this magic school. Even if you can't go to the wizarding village next to the school, it's a lot more fun to wander around the castle than to do your homework.

Therefore, when Leah came to the library, she did not see a single classmate in the same grade.

Oh no, there's still one.

When Leah looked over, Hermione looked up. Looking at each other, Liya couldn't pretend not to see it, so she had to walk over with her schoolbag and say hello: "You didn't go to the castle for a walk?" ”

Hermione cleaned up the books scattered on the table a little and said, "No, I'm used to finishing my homework first and playing when I have time." ”

Leah put her bag down, took out the paper, inkwell, and quill pen, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

Although they weren't from the same house, Leah had noticed the Gryffindor girl for a long time. In Transfiguration class, in Charms class...... This girl behaves not at all like a Gryffindor, more like Ravenclaw, intelligent, hardworking, and very "savvy", this is the public evaluation of Professor Flitwick, the professor of Charms and the head of Ravenclaw.

In this world, many times people only remember the first place, not the second place, just like now, professors and classmates will remember Hermione Granger who performed the best in class, I'm afraid not many people know that the second best performance is her, Leah Price.

Phyllis said that the Price family had a good tutor, and that was true. Because of her tutor's requirements, Leah didn't allow herself to show the vile emotions of jealousy, but that didn't mean she could calm down when facing Hermione.

Seeing that Leah had been stunned since she sat down, Hermione put down her pen, moved her wrist, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" ”

"Huh? Not...... It's nothing. Leah woke up from her thoughts and said, "It's nothing, I just don't know how to start." ”

"Professor Kate's paper?"

"Ah...... Yes, it is. ”

Hermione also frowned slightly, and said with the same distress, "To be honest, I don't know how to write from that angle. ”

After a few minutes of silence, Hermione suddenly said, "I heard that you Ravenclaw and Professor Kate have a good relationship, if you don't understand, you can ask Professor Kate yourself." ”

"I don't dare." Leah said honestly.

"What's not to dare?" Hermione was quite bold, and said, "The worst-case scenario is nothing more than Professor Kate's disagreement, what else?" ”

Liya thought for a moment, nodded vigorously, and said, "Okay, then we'll go to Professor Kate now." ”

The two girls had made up their minds.

First things first, find out where Professor Kate's office is.

Phyllis did not specify the location of her office in class. Unable to do so, Leah finds an upper-year Ravenclaw and leads them down the road, and the two of them arrive in front of Professor Kate's office.

Leah took a few deep breaths and plucked up the courage to knock on the door.

The one who opened the door was a house-elf, Amy.

Amy looked up at the two girls and said, "You are the master's students, aren't you?" Can I help you? ”

Leah said a little nervously, "That's right, we don't have a clue about the paper assigned by Professor Kate, and we hope to get Professor Kate's guidance." ”

Amy thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you guys come in." ”

As she spoke, Amy slit the door a little wider, then dodged and motioned for the two to come in.

"Sit down." Amy took two cups of coffee, handed them to them, and said, "You need to wait a while, the master will be back soon." ”

PS: Happy Holidays.
