"Don't you think this style is similar to someone we know?" Betty couldn't help but interject

"Someone we know?" Ron thought for a moment, then suddenly slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "-! Hagrid! ”

"No, it won't!" Even though they had a good relationship, Hermione didn't approve of Hagrid's teaching of the Magical Beasts class. Because his fantastic beasts are truly amazing.

"It's over, Harry—we're going to be killed by the dragon!" Ron grabbed Harry, who was contemplative, and shook it vigorously.

"Huh? - Hey! Hey! Calm down~ Ron: "Harry, who came back to his senses, quickly broke away

"So you better think about how to deal with Hagrid, and don't know about arguing all day." Ivy leaned back and said leisurely

After his interruption, the carriage was much quieter. It didn't take long to stop in front of the castle gates. But as soon as I got out of the car, it started again

"Potter, you've fainted, haven't you~" Malfoy lived up to his expectations and fired on his firepower "Listen to Neville, you're so scared by the Dementors that you faint in your seat—right?" ”

Ivy and Betty walked straight past him, not even looking at him. His eardrums had been tormented long enough today.

Follow the passage up the stairs, where Professor McGonagall is waiting.

"Mr. Shafiq, Miss Ethel, Professor Dumbledore is waiting for you in my office."

"We?" Ivy asked uncertainly

"Yes, I'm sure," Professor McGonagall nodded

"Well, thank you, Professor McGonagall"

After saying goodbye to Professor McGonagall, the two went to her office. Pushing open the door, Dumbledore was standing in front of the fireplace, watching the flames.

"Welcome, Mr. Shafiq, Miss Ethel"

"Hello, Professor Dumbledore. Excuse me—"

"Can you show me your Patronus?" Dumbledore turned and interrupted his question.

Ivy thought for a moment, then nodded to Betty

"Call the Gods and Guards" ×2

A silver-white bull and a peacock appear in the room

"This ——!" Dumbledore was also shocked

"It's amazing~" he exclaimed

"Headmaster, what the hell is going on?" Ivey asked

"Nothing—thank you for cooperating with me, old man, and now you can go to the banquet." He turned back on

“...”

The two were a little baffled. But looking at Dumbledore's appearance, he was clearly not prepared to explain. You can only leave

On the way back to the banquet hall

"What do you mean by Dumbledore?" Betty didn't figure it out, so she asked him directly

"Great people are like that, and they talk to be confusing. Maybe it's to make sure we're capable of protecting Harry, or maybe something else. Who knows," Ivy didn't figure it out

Arriving at the banquet hall, Ivy scanned around and found that Harry and Hermione weren't there. In front of the main podium, Professor Flitwick was presiding over the sorting ceremony.

Return to the Hufflepuff table and sit down. He didn't think much about it, anyway, if Dumbledore was worried about it, nothing good would happen.

When Harry and Hermione returned, the professors were seated. Dumbledore tapped the goblet

"Ding—"

The cacophony resounded throughout the room, and the restaurant was instantly silent

"Welcome back to Hogwarts again. Also welcome our first freshmen"

"Bang bang—" The auditorium burst into applause

"While everyone is still sober, I have a few important things to announce. The first is very important, Hogwarts has welcomed a number of Dementors, who have been sent by the Ministry of Magic on official duty. I think everyone knows why, this is a protection measure for all of you. ”

"They will be stationed at every entrance to the school," Dumbledore said in a sudden accentuated tone, "I must make it clear!" No one is allowed to leave the school without permission while they are there! You know, no tricks, disguises, or tricks can fool the Dementors. Even-" His gaze swept over the three Harry, "Invisibility Cloak won't work"

"Dementors don't have mercy, and they don't bother with excuses and pleas for mercy, so don't let them have a reason to hurt you."

This news may be a bit heavy, not to mention the freshmen of the first year, and the senior students are also dignified.

"Alright, now let's have some nice conversations," Dumbledore said

"It is my great pleasure to introduce you to the two new faculty members this semester," he said, pointing to Professor Lupin

"This is Professor Lupin, and he's readily agreed to fill the void in the Defence Against the Dark Arts class - let's give us a round of applause!"

Bang Bang Bang –

The applause was not very enthusiastic, especially for the Slytherin students. Just for show.

"Do they have a feud?" Betty stared at the stage, leaning over to Ivey and whispering

On the main stage, Snape looked at Lupin with a cannibalistic look.

"Didn't you hear Wendy, they were alumni of the same issue. How is the relationship, you can refer to Harry and Malfoy. "Ivey knows their relationship very well

"I don't think they're as good as Harry and Malfoy"

Betty wondered if the two would pull out their wands and fight each other if they ran into each other alone.

"As for the second teacher. Before I make the announcement, I have to tell you with regret. Our Conservation Magical Beasts teacher, Professor Kettleburn, retired at the end of last semester. His position was filled by none other than Rubeus Hagrid, who agreed to take up the teaching position at the same time as the gamekeeper. Let's welcome him! ”

Bang Bang Bang –

The applause was not as good as Lupin's, but Hagrid stood up happily and beckoned to everyone.

"It's Hagrid," Betty said

"It's obvious – others won't be so pitiful"

"Alright, the important things are said and done. Now – the feast is officially on! ”

Then, all kinds of delicacies appear on the table. The students cheered and began to feast. It feels like all the things that come up before are not as important as the food.

Ivey is even worse, he not only eats himself, but also keeps feeding Lou Wei under the table.

After the banquet, the two of them did not stay, and followed the prefect back to the Hufflepuff lounge, where they had a good night's sleep and prepared for the new semester.

————

Early the next morning

Ivey and Betty arrive at the restaurant together. They came late, because the two of them had a transfiguration class in the morning.

"I knew I would only take one course," Ron said enviously seeing the two of them looking at their leisurely appearance

"I agree with that," Ivy nodded, "To be honest, divination is all about talent, not how hard you work to become a soothsayer. And you guys—" Ive's eyes crossed the three, "Please forgive me for being blunt, you guys may all have negative divination talents. ”

He was telling the truth. In Ivey's impression, Luna, who may be the chattering god, may have a talent for divination.

"It doesn't matter~" Ron spreads his hands and "just plays." And it's not that that important, you look at Hermione's class schedule. ”

"You don't have to look at it, you guessed it. She's definitely taken all the classes," Ivy said casually as she ate her breakfast

"That's not the point, either! Look at her classes! There were three classes at nine o'clock! When did you learn the doppelganger technique! You're a wizard, not a ninja! Ron waved his arms exaggeratedly

Betty took Hermione's timetable and looked at it, "You also signed up for Muggle studies?" ”

"I think it would be interesting to look at Muggles from a wizard's point of view." Hermione was intrigued

"Hermione, even if you're a wizard, you don't have much energy. You're going to wear yourself out in no time," Betty advised

"But aren't students supposed to study? I love learning," Hermione was puzzled

"Learning is just a way for you to protect yourself, don't make that habit a hobby," Ivy continued, "Remember the Patronus Charm?" If you really like to learn, why can't you succeed? ”

"Maybe you're right, but I won't be able to break this habit for a while." Hermione wasn't as stubborn as the other two

"You don't need to break it, and in principle it's not a bad thing. But Hermione, if you don't feel interested in two lessons, don't force yourself. Spend more time with your friends, they are your most precious thing. Right—Ron."

"Of course! Friends are the most important thing! Ron patted his chest, "But you have to make sure you take care of your cat"

Originally, Hermione was quite moved, and after listening to the last sentence, her face darkened, "It's your mouse that has a problem!" Crookshank never does this to other rats! ”

"You talk nonsense! It's your cat's problem! ”

......

By the lake, Ivey and Betty were hanging out hand in hand. Best rarely walked on the grass behind, and Lowe was much wilder, rolling wildly.

As soon as Ron and Hermione got into an argument at the restaurant, the two ran away. Taking advantage of the relatively idle semester, the two of them prepared to visit all the attractions of Hogwarts.

"It's a rare day like this," Betty enjoys the laid-back atmosphere. Like Erin, she is a gifted wizard who doesn't like to work hard. The reason why I worked so hard in front of me was mostly for Ivey.

"This semester should be a break, and I worked hard for you some time ago." Ivey didn't feel guilty, after all, it was natural for his wife to help her husband. But a little apology, there are some.

"Nothing hard work. Besides, at this time, you don't just want to talk to me about this~" Betty is not a little girl, she knows what to do.

"Hey, hey—let's talk about grown-up things then," Ivey grabbed her, "You're almost fourteen."

Ivy admired her slender form. Compared with three years ago, the body has grown a lot, and the figure has also highlighted the curves, and it has begun to gradually develop into a young girl.

"Think beautiful~" Betty laughed and punched him

"Let's go, it's time for transfiguration lesson," she snapped her fingers, and Best returned to her shoulder.

"Let's go—keep up, Louwe."

Ascend the tower and encounter the trio as they struggle to climb the stairs.

"How did the first divination lesson feel?" Ivey asked

"Whew—not good, Professor Trelawney says I'm dying." Harry's entire body collapsed on the armrest, looking like he had kidney deficiency.

"Congratulations," Ivy gloated

"Seriously, I really want to consider your suggestion. What kind of divination class is this, it's really outrageous. Hermione's tone was unkind

"It's only the first lesson, don't jump to conclusions so early," Betty persuaded her instead

"Hehe, a few more classes are probably just as annoying" Hermione looked very annoyed

"Whatever you want, anyway - I can't grasp it myself"
