Chapter 185: Azkaban Ends
(Thanks to the gods for their tips and support)
Because of the professor's good looks, Muggle alchemy became a popular elective, and the number of electives far exceeded that of divination, ancient magic, Muggle studies, and other courses. But the gap between wizarding culture and Muggle culture is too big, even if Wang Yuanji increases the charm of the course by showing the alchemy of flames, most students still can't find time to make up for Muggle knowledge in the heavy compulsory courses, she can only put the requirements for the students to a minimum, the difficulty of the course is also minimized, and finally learn to cancel all homework, quizzes and exams like Leeds.
Of course, there are still a small number of "exceptions" who are studying at a higher level of alchemy. For example, the student group dominated by Ravenclaw students, people just have the spare energy to learn one more skill, and you are not convinced; For example, Muggle-born students, such as Hermione Granger, who wanted to learn alchemy and pass it on to their families; For example, Filch, the administrator, even though he is old, has a slow brain, and has no Muggle knowledge base, but after decades of being a squib, there is finally a course that does not require magic, and he tries his best to learn it! Lately, it's not Lady Loris's (cat) that he's holding the most, it's Muggle textbooks!
However, irresponsibly speaking, it doesn't matter how well the student learns alchemy, what matters is whether Wang Yuanji taught alchemy seriously, which was one of the pacts that Leeds signed with Dumbledore that day.
And another treaty, it's time to put it on the agenda-
"Professor McGonagall, can you help me reserve a class for next week?" At the end of the Transfiguration class, Leeds approached McGonagall, who was in charge of the work.
ββ¦β¦ Is it finally about to start? McGonagall was someone who had seen Leeds exposed, and she knew very well that the man in front of her was not a parallel commodity like Lockhart, but she was worried that Leeds would lead the Hogwarts students crookedly.
Maybe always climbing "Harry Potter" and "Voldemort", "Order of the Phoenix" and "Death Eaters" will cause people to misunderstand. But to be clear, wizards are not soldiers on the battlefield, and wizard apprentices are not recruits who are about to go to war, let alone witchers who play Gwent cards every day; Magic is first a skill for life, then a skill for work, and finally a skill for fighting.
If Voldemort hadn't been plotting the resurrection for the previous year, neither she nor Dumbledore would have agreed to Leeds taking such a course...... Although, this does not mean that they will refuse the arrival of exchange students, whether it is Dumbledore, who is always blackened into a dog by the fan, or McGonagall, who is ruthless, they are very good at talking.
"Yes, the students' courses for the new semester are slowly on the right track," especially the young wives who have also adapted to life at Hogwarts, "I think it's the right time to have a little more exciting classes now." β
ββ¦β¦ Professor Leeds, they're still kids. When Leeds said this, McGonagall was even more worried.
"Peace of mind, they may cry out in pain, they may break a few bones, they may bleed a little, but I can guarantee that they will be alive and kicking when they get out of class." Liz smiled meaningfully, "Besides, I never intended them to turn into villains who could perform 'Avada Killing' on their classmates. β
"......" What else can McGonagall say, she can only choose to trust, anyway, now that Liz is a Hogwarts professor on her footing, she can't easily veto the other party's teaching policy, so she has to get back to the topic, "Professor Leaz, do you have any requirements for class time, classroom arrangements, and needed props?" β
"You don't need a classroom, you can just use the playground; I need a magic broomstick, and I'll prepare the rest of the props myself; The class is scheduled for the last class of the day, and after my class, it will be difficult for the students to listen carefully when they come back...... I'm tired~" Liz smiled.
"yes, I see." McGonagall nodded, the requirements were similar to nothing, and the magic broom made her care a little, but it wasn't a dangerous thing, except for the freshmen in the first year, who wouldn't use a magic broom?
After the two of them finished talking, there was no reason to stay in the classroom anymore and walked out of the classroom together.

"I warn you, Hermione! Don't let that brute get near Spotted! Otherwise I'll turn it into a teapot lid! β
"She's a cat, Ron. How else can you make it? Cats are just rat-catchers, it's nature. β
"Is that a cat? It looks like a long-haired pig. β
"My own rats are like stinky shoe brushes, and I am embarrassed to talk about others...... Don't be afraid, Crookshan, and leave this little villain alone. β
Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger, the iron triangle of Gryffindor's second-year, once solved the "Philosopher's Stone Incident" last year, and with the help of the eccentric Dumbledore, they successfully let Gryffindor win the House Cup, but the celebrities of the entire house, even Lez, who had nothing to do with them before, recognized it.
However, no matter how ironclad friends are, there are times when they quarrel, and this is youth...... Just like this time, Ron and Hermione had a slight argument over pets, and Harry, caught in the middle, was torn between them, as if neither side could help.
"Weasley, Granger, don't quarrel in the hallway, it will affect others." The head of Gryffindor, Professor McGonagall, saw this situation and naturally came over to discipline the students.
"Yes...... Professor McGonagall. "When students encounter teachers, they all have to bow their heads.
"Although Hogwarts allows students to bring their pets to school, please take care of your pets and not let them cause an indelible stain on your studies." McGonagall said stiffly.
ββ¦β¦ Be. "This time it's obvious that Hermione, cat and mouse, cat is the perpetrator.
"Haha~ Professor McGonagall said this, I don't think it's right, such a cute cat, what's wrong~~ Right, Crookshan." Liz, who also walked over, reached out and touched the head of the big fluffy cat that Hermione was holding.
"Meow!" The cats do not dump strangers, and hide their heads in the body of their masters.
Slightly dissatisfied with Leeds' interference in her own teaching, and even more unhappy with this unfair remark, McGonagall wanted to refute it, "Professor Leedsβ"
"βBesides, Crookshank Hill is very capable, and knows how to chase a wizard who has become-become-old-rat-bite!" Leeds looked coldly at Ron's pet 'Spotted', whom he had met for the first time since the beginning of the school year.
"Whatββ?!"
In the moment of everyone's consternation, the mouse in Ron's hand suddenly exploded in size, and suddenly crashed into the iron triangle, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a bald short man who was about the same height as a child, and was running away with all his might.
"It's hard, can it be ββ! Peter Pettigrew?! McGonagall exclaimed.
"Acquaintances?" Liz tilted her head.
"Oh no, we caught the wrong person!" McGonagall, who figured everything out in an instant, immediately drew her wand and tried to chase after her, but caught a glimpse of Liz standing next to her...... Suddenly remembering who could fight best at Hogwarts, he hurriedly said, "Professor Leeds, please help me catch that wizard!" He is involved in a serious case! β
"Ma'am, at your service."
