library

Sitting at a table in the corner, Shirley was giving Hermione a detailed account of what had happened in Defence Against the Dark Arts class.

When Hermione had finished, she raised her eyebrows and repeated with a smirk:

"Brave, smart, and kind?!"

Professor Blake so Quarov?

Brave and smart aside, often deliberately use bets to bully themselves...... Where did Rove get involved with kindness?!

He's obviously a bad guy who does all kinds of evil!

As the saying goes, embarrassing black is equal to washing, and embarrassing blowing is equal to black.

Therefore, Sirius's words, although they were all good words, were praised too fiercely, so that Rove couldn't stand it.

However, he still smiled cheekily and said:

"Why, Hermione, do you disagree? Everyone thinks that the minority obeys the majority, and your personal opinion is invalid. ”

"Everybody thinks so?" Hermione raised her voice and snorted, "Who else thinks that but Sirius?" ”

Rov glanced at the ponytail girl, she didn't speak, just smiled softly and nodded slightly.

"Shirley, you can't tell a lie just because Rove is your boss." Hermione put her arm around the ponytail girl's shoulders and smiled:

"The two of us are in the same faction!"

Shirley smiled, and she said seriously, "I really have to feel that way. ”

Hermione sighed.

Rove smiled but didn't say a word.

The three of them made a little more fuss, and Mrs. Pince, the librarian, came twice with a feather duster, and finally left with a strange face.

Rove cast a silent spell around him, and his voice could not be heard at all, nor would it disturb the others.

Mrs. Pince could only see the three men in that mouth, as if performing a pantomime, but she could not hear their voices.

On the table, there was also a piece of parchment, a map, drawn in ink with slender lines.

The lines converge and intersect each other, extending to every corner of this parchment.

With Sirius' help, Rove, Shirley, and Hermione have recently been working on a new map of living spots.

This new map includes Hogwarts Castle, various secret passages, and Quidditch fields. In addition to this, there are also rooms of requirement and secret rooms that were not in the original map.

Rove's original plan was to include the Black Lake, the Forbidden Forest, and Hogsmeade, but the amount of work was too large for three people to complete in a short period of time.

"It's about to begin."

Rove raised his wand, and Shirley and Hermione raised their wands at the same time, and the tips of the three wands were together, and they said at the same time:

"Signs appear!"

The three wands drew each other together, splashing a string of blinding sparks, and then spewing a large cloud of water smoke that spread out in all directions.

Soon, the entire library was shrouded in smoke, and many students looked up at the sudden fog in a strange way.

It didn't take long for the thick smoke to dissipate, and dots of ink began to appear on the parchment map, which had only lines, each with a name in tiny letters.

"It worked." Shirley said happily.

The three of them unleashed the Shadow Charm, an unhurried magic that was also the core of making a map of living spots, which could show the names of everyone in the smoke coverage area on the map.

Hermione looked at the map in amazement, only to see that in the library, there were many small black dots moving on the map.

A black dot in the upper left corner shows Mrs. Pince, who is hurrying around, as if looking for who is performing the spell just now.

A group of Ravenclaw students, gathered at a table in the distance, were studying.

Of course, these names only show this part of the library, and there are no names anywhere else.

No way, the area covered by the human trace spell at once is very small.

In order to map the entire castle, the three of them had to move little by little, which was also a huge amount of work.

Regardless, the library area has been reproduced on the map, which is a good start.

The three of them continued to discuss the issue of the human sign charm, when suddenly they heard the sound of kicking and stomping footsteps coming from a distance.

Rove looked up and saw Hagrid striding over in a moleskin coat.

Hagrid rarely came to the library, apparently to them.

After swinging his wand and canceling the Silence Charm, Rove asked in a whisper, "Is something wrong, Hagrid?" ”

Hagrid handed over a letter and said nervously, "Rove, the Hippogriff has been dealt with...... I think you may need to take a look. ”

Rove took the letter and unfolded the paper, and Shirley and Hermione came over and looked at the letter together.

Dear Mr. Hagrid,

We have received reports from Hogwarts about Hippogriffs attacking students.

On April 20th, we will hold a hearing in our London office to discuss the handling of you and the Hippogriff.

You and your Hippogriff were present on that day. During this time, Hippogriffs are to be tethered and isolated.

Ministry of Magic Education Administration,

Supervisor: Geselda Marchiban.

"Good news." Rove smiled, "The Education Administration has taken over this matter, and the Hippogriff will not fall into the hands of the Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Organisms." ”

"But I don't know what to do." Hagrid scratched his hair and said, "Do I have anything to prepare?" ”

"You have to collect what students say about your teaching." Rove confessed: "Prove that you are a good teacher and good enough for this position." ”

That's not a problem, Hagrid has been strictly controlling the content of his teachings lately, teaching only unicorns, which are beautiful, funny magical creatures.

At Rove's reminder, he would also take the animal's tail feathers as a reward for every lesson...... There is absolutely no problem with student evaluations.

"You'll have to prepare a defense, Hagrid." Rove said lightly: "Write down the whole thing, prove that it has nothing to do with Buckbeak, and it won't hurt anymore." ”

"We can be witnesses." Shirley said softly.

"Yes, I'm sure I've read about a case of a higriff-headed horse." Hermione thought for a moment and said:

"In that case, the Hippogriff was released. We'll look for you in a moment, Hagrid, and if you find one, we'll take a good look at what's going on. ”

"Thank you three." Hagrid was moved to tears, and he hurried back to collect the evaluation.

After Hagrid left, Hermione stretched and said, "Let's go, let's go find those cases and prepare a defense for Buckbeak." ”

"No need to look for it." Rove shook his head and smiled, "I have here a detailed record of nearly two thousand years of cases of magical creatures hurting people. ”

“……”

Shirley took out the black box, and when Rove opened it, he took out a half-man's tall parchment.

Hermione was stunned, and flipped through it in disbelief.

"1766...... A human-headed dragon-bodied lion-tailed monster bites a wizard...... It was sentenced to death by the Ministry of Magic...... Carl Scamander defended his innocence? Carl Scamander?! ”

"My grandfather's uncle...... That is, my second grandfather. Rove explained.

June 5, 1872...... A Hippogriff was convicted of a crime—well, Josda Scamander defended it......"

"My great-grandfather."

“……”

Hermione flipped through it and frowned, "Why are most of them Scamander?" ”

"Family history." Rove shrugged, "I'm not actually a magizoologist, and I'm not a veterinarian...... It's a professional defender. ”

“……”
