"Stupid! What do you think the purpose of that dark wizard is? Is it to stay in the Forbidden Forest to retire? If it's really a pension, then it's exactly what I want, and we in the province sent out the Aurors to search the Forbidden Forest with great difficulty.

But is this possible? Knowing that Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has Albus Dumbledore. He also has to hide in the Forbidden Forest, don't think about it, his purpose must be the school.

So you just have to protect the students and don't let them get hurt. Leave the dark wizard to Dumbledore. You don't think you can defeat a wizard who becomes the master of a bone dragon. ”

"Yes!" Seeing that Fudge said this, Sinkenes didn't say anything more, nodded to Fudge and walked out of the minister's office.

"Hey, this little guy is really an American-style businessman, and he can actually think of asking the Ministry of Magic to compensate for the loss of house-elves. It's a real headache, so let's leave this matter to the finance department to figure it out. ”

Watching the disturbing Hinkness leave, Fudge once again pulled out a cigar, expertly cut off the cigar head, and lit it with a magic lighter. After taking a deep breath.

He remembered what Rick had said about the house-elf compensation issue. He didn't want to take this matter to heart, but the thought that he was also Rick's partner now made it a good idea.

Just find something to do for those who have nothing to do every day, don't come to trouble him all day long.

......

More than a dozen strange wizards suddenly appeared in Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, causing curiosity and uneasiness among all the young wizards. There was a lot of talk about what the adults were doing at Hogwarts.

The daring students asked the professor what was going on at Hogwarts and why the Aurors were there, only to be told that they had only lost a few house-elves and that the Aurors were helping to find them.

While the professors were adamant that the Aurors were looking for lost house-elves, the clever wizards wouldn't believe such an excuse. The young wizards had their own suspicions, some man-eating monster had run into Hogwarts, the werewolves had arrived, and the mystery man had returned to Hogwarts, and so on.

Two weeks passed, and the Aurors had no intention of leaving Hogwarts, which caused an eerie aura to permeate Hogwarts Castle.

......

Wow!

The door opened, and a round figure sneaked in. He looked around, then carefully closed the door.

"Augustine, what are you doing here?"

In Rick's office, Hermione, who was sorting out her first-year wizarding papers, looked up to find Hufflepuff's Augustine the Great, standing in the middle of the office, cowering and looking around, as if looking for something.

"Hermione, where's Professor Graves?"

After a glance around, he noticed that Rick was not there. When Augustine finally let out a sigh of relief, he took a relaxed expression, slapped his stomach, and finally trotted to Hermione's side, pulled out a handful of weird beans, and placed them on the paper in Hermione's hand.

Seeing that Augustine actually handed him a handful of strange beans, Hermione frowned, tilted her head slightly, and responded to him in a puzzled tone.

"Professor, he was called away by Headmaster Dumbledore. What's the hell going on with you? Augustine! And do you want to bribe me with these beans? ”

"No, no, no, how can it be said to be a bribe. I see that you are working so hard to sort out these homework alone. I'm afraid you're too tired, so I gave you my favorite snacks. ”

Hearing that Professor Graves was called away by Headmaster Dumbledore, he couldn't come back for a while. Augustine rolled his eyes as he said to Hermione that it was just a greeting between friends, not a bribe. He took out a piece of parchment covered in handwriting and put it into a stack of homework.

To hide it, Augustine also placed this piece of parchment at the bottom of the pile.

"Yes, Augustine. I'm going to tell the professor that you're late again. ”

Hermione crossed her hands on her hips and looked at the little fat man in front of her with an angry look on her face. She now understood that this guy was bribing herself, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and her delicate little face was already covered with red flesh and blood.

"Don't! Hermione, I just woke up late and Hannah she forgot to take my homework. If you tell Professor Graves that I'm late for my assignments. He would have thought that I didn't do my homework yesterday and made it up today. It's true! Hermione, I didn't lie to you! I swear to you with dinner! ”

Seeing that Hermione actually wanted to denounce herself, Augustine looked very aggrieved, telling that she came to hand in her homework so late because Hannah Abbott in the same house forgot to accept his homework.

"No! You can't fool me. I know what kind of character Hannah is. There's no way she's forgetting to take your homework, you must have deceived Hannah with your rhetoric. ”

Compared to Augustine standing in front of her, Hermione was more willing to trust Hannah, who was also a girl. Hannah is a very gentle, simple and kind girl who is easily deceived by Augustine.

"You!"

Augustine was about to say something when the office door was pushed open again. The sudden movement frightened him and he hurriedly looked back, wondering if Professor Graves had returned.

It turned out to be Ron, seeing that it was Ron who pushed the door open, Augustine's pounding heart finally fell, and he wiped the sweat from his forehead with his cuffs, and a feeling of the aftermath haunted his heart.

"Augustine, what are you doing here?"

Ron, who had just helped Rick deliver a letter to Hagrid, returned to the office to find that Harry was gone, and that Augustine from Hufflepuff had been replaced. He spoke with doubts.

"I'm here to hand in my homework. But the professor was not there. ”

"Oh, yes."

Ron looked stunned, then nodded. When he came to his desk, he looked at the pile of strange beans in front of Hermione, and a bad suspicion appeared in his heart.

Hermione never carries snacks with her, but she prefers to eat weird beans. Ron remembers once asking Hermione what kind of snacks in the wizarding world she liked, and Hermione told him a few, including weird beans.

'This Augustine actually brought snacks to Hermione, and when I found out, I didn't admit it!' Under the honest appearance, he actually hides a cunning heart, which is as annoying as Malfoy! ’

The thought that Augustine had actually brought snacks to Hermione to Professor Graves' office made Ron's eyes look at Augustine with wariness and hostility.

"Oh, aren't you going back then? The professor doesn't like too many people showing up in his office. ”

Ron didn't know what the real reason for his sudden hostility to Augustine was, but he just didn't want Augustine to stay here any longer.
