New Hogwarts Professor

"According to internal information, Fudge seems to want to attack Lord Gring and completely integrate the banking system into the Ministry of Magic." Bill Weasley said, "Those goblins' opinions of Fudge have dropped to freezing point. I listened to some goblins chatting. Speaking of them, I have decided to join the mysterious man."

"Is he crazy?" Tonks asked in shock, "Gringotts has always been the territory of goblins. If this is taken away, won't the goblins rebel?"

"Who knows? Maybe this is the scene he wants to see?" Bill shrugged.

Xia Ran said decisively: "It seems that Fudge is not far away from going completely crazy. Our plan must be accelerated. Goblins will not easily join the war between wizards. We cannot sit back and watch Fudge push the goblins to join the dark wizard camp."

"Let's put it in the first half of next year." Dumbledore said solemnly. Fudge's various actions and the current turbulent situation in the wizarding world also made him determined to "launch the plan then!"

Everyone discussed for a while what to pay attention to, including the public opinion offensive and the aftermath, which were both very important.

Because Hogwarts was still there at night, the Yule Ball, including Sharon, Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, Snape, and Moody, apparated back to Hogwarts together after the meeting.

At this moment, the sky was dark with dark clouds and it seemed like it was going to snow heavily.

"It looks like it's going to snow heavily tonight. Why don't you go back and change into a dress? It would be too rude to go to the ball with a dress like this." Dumbledore said with a smile.

Moody shook his head. He had no intention of attending the Yule Ball.

Xia Ran and Professor McGonagall will attend the Yule Ball. To Xia Ran's expectation, Snape is also willing to attend the Yule Ball.

"I am the headmaster, so I can't shirk it." Snape said with a gloomy expression.

Xia Ran shrugged and went back to the office and changed into a dress. At this time, countless candles were lit in the castle, the lights were bright, people were coming and going, and both men and women tried their best to dress up in their best appearance.

When he arrived in the foyer, the place was already packed with students, milling back and forth, waiting for eight o'clock to arrive, when the doors to the auditorium would open, and some leaning sideways to meet their dance partners from other colleges. Squeezing around in the crowd, there are people looking for each other.

The teachers at Hogwarts were in a corner. Except for Professor Moody, almost everyone else had arrived. Even Filch, the caretaker of Hogwarts Castle, was holding hands with Mrs. Pince from the library. They stood together and whispered.

Hagrid's figure was very conspicuous. He was looking around. No need to ask, Xia Ran knew that he was looking for Beauxbatons' principal, Ms. Maxim.

"Xia Ran is good and energetic." Professor Sprout praised Xia Ran. She was wearing a blue dress and had a high neckline. His hair was short and his face was not handsome and delicate. But he was extremely coordinated and confident. His temperament - strong magic power and self-confidence - actually gives people a very amazing feeling.

"Sorry, Xia Ran, I have to go gather the Hufflepuff students."

Professor Sprout said as he passed by Xia Ran. Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick, and Professor Snape did not come here. Instead, they summoned the students from their own college to arrange for them.

"Warriors please come here." Professor McGonagall shouted loudly.

Cedric Diggory and Cho Chang, Fleur Delacour and Roger Davis, and the most eye-catching Viktor Krum and Hermione Granger. Many girls looked at Hermione with jealous eyes and were extremely jealous that she had taken away Krum's dance partner position.

But Hermione's appearance changed so much today that it was difficult to say anything humiliating. Even Draco Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson couldn't find a word to insult her when she passed by. Hermione.

Hermione, smiling slightly nervously, took Krum's arm and winked as she faced Harry.

Harry was shocked. He almost didn't recognize Hermione. The previously messy brown hair was now smooth, shiny and pulled into an elegant bun at the back of her head.

She was wearing a robe made of flowing light purple-blue material, and somehow her aura was different - Harry guessed that it might be because she had taken off the twenty-something clothes she usually carried on her body. This is a thick book.

"Hello Harry," Hermione greeted, "Hello Parvati."

Parvati was Harry's dance partner, but she looked at Hermione with undisguised suspicion. People like her, many of them, especially those star-struck girls who admired Krum, just wanted to take out their wands. Come and kill Hermione.

"Where's Ron?" Hermione asked.

Just as Harry was about to answer, he heard a cold snort and followed Ron and Padma into the Great Hall without looking sideways, as if he didn't even see Hermione beside him.

"What happened to him?" Hermione asked Harry confused.

"Well, he's not in a good mood, and you know that dress..." Harry replied randomly, but he didn't actually say that Ron's mood because of the bad dress had completely changed when he came to the entrance hall. coming.

The trajectory of Harry taking Parvati into the auditorium was different from the original time and space. This time, he was not a warrior, so he did not have to wait outside for the waiting room. After the teachers and students were seated, he could finally enter with the other warriors. He could have done so in advance. Go in and take a seat.

There was some regret in his heart.

The walls of the auditorium were covered with glittering silver frost, and the ceiling was a starry night sky, with hundreds of garlands of mistletoe sprigs and ivy hanging from the ceiling.

The four college tables disappeared and were replaced by a hundred small tables lit with lanterns, with about ten people sitting at each table.

He saw the situation of the guest of honor. Several judges were sitting in one position respectively, while Professor Frémont and other teachers were sitting at two tables on the other side. Many teachers were alone and had no dancing partners, such as Frémont. Professor Raymond.

Harry decided to go over later and ask about his situation.

At this time, Professor McGonagall called the warriors and their dance partners to come in, and everyone responded with warm applause.

When the warriors started to dance - they were the protagonists of this dance - after the first dance, Harry said sorry to Parvati and found Professor Frémont who was eating and drinking. .

“Professors have professors.”

Xia Ran glanced at him and smiled and said: "It turns out to be Harry. What's wrong? I have you. If you have a dance partner, don't just focus on eating and drinking like me."

Parvati looked a little unhappy.

Harry said awkwardly: "Well, Professor, please don't make fun of me." Lian said seriously: "I'm serious, I came to you for something important."

Xia Ran raised her eyebrows, put down her knife and fork, swallowed the food in her mouth, glanced around and said, "Let's go out, there are too many people here."

Ron followed him at this time, while Hermione walked away with a sullen face. The two seemed to have had a quarrel.
