The Plane Merchant of Hogwarts

Chapter 141 Lao Deng’s routine lecture

;

Professor McGonagall slowly walked towards her empty seat at the teachers' table, while the other little wizards walked as quietly as possible in the opposite direction, which was the student seats.

As they walked along the back of the auditorium, people turned to look at them, and a few people pointed at Harry and muttered something.

Harry himself murmured in his mind, did the news of him fainting in front of the dementors spread so quickly? The owl phone was really fast at spreading bad things about him.

"What's the matter with calling you just now?" As soon as they sat down, Ron leaned over curiously and asked Harry in a low voice.

Harry turned his head and was about to explain to Ron in a low voice, but then Professor Dumbledore stood up and spoke, and he closed his mouth that he was about to open.

When Harry saw Professor Dumbledore smiling at all the students, he felt that this was the first time he had truly calmed down since the dementor entered the train carriage.

"Welcome," said Professor Dumbledore, his beard glinting in the light of the candle, "welcome to Hogwarts for the new academic year.

I have a few words to say to all of you, and one of them is very serious. I don’t want to say it when you are confused by this delicious meal, so I have to make it clear before eating.”

Dumbledore cleared his throat and was about to continue talking when he seemed to be extremely impatient and took out his owl phone from his pocket to check something.

Others may be checking what Dumbledore is going to say next, but Rolf knows clearly:

Dumbledore's husband: Albus, what are you doing? Have you finished taking a shower?

Dumbledore: I'm hosting the opening ceremony. Chat back.

After Professor Dumbledore put his phone away again, he continued: "You must all know that the group of dementors searched the Hogwarts Express.

At present, our school may have to receive a few dementors from Azkaban, who are here to perform official duties of the Ministry of Magic. "

As soon as Professor Dumbledore finished speaking, the little wizards below exploded and expressed their opinions one after another.

The young wizards of Muggle origin quickly asked what dementors were, and the young wizards from wizarding families also expressed their protests loudly, but no one dared to directly oppose Professor Dumbledore.

Professor Dumbledore also paused, as if giving the young wizards time to vent their emotions.

Harry suddenly remembered that Mr. Weasley once said that Dumbledore was not happy with the dementors guarding the school.

"They are stationed at all entrances to the school grounds," Dumbledore continued after the little wizards' voices died down,

"One thing I have to make clear is that no one is allowed to leave the school without permission during their stay here.

Dementors should not, and cannot, be deceived by sleight of hand or disguise, not even by an invisibility cloak. "

He added this sentence expressionlessly, and looked at Harry vaguely, and then looked at Rolf again, with a slight twinkle in his eyes.

"Dementors by nature do not understand requests or excuses. Therefore, I warn each of you: Do not give them any excuse to harm you.

I hope that the prefects of each house, as well as our newly appointed Head Boy and Head Girl, will ensure that no student will have a conflict with a Dementor. "

Professor Dumbledore warned the young wizards with a serious expression. Percy was sitting only a few seats away from Harry. At this time, he puffed up his chest and looked around impressively.

Professor Dumbledore's voice paused again, and he looked around the auditorium seriously. No one moved or made a sound.

I just hope that the little wizards' fear of dementors can last a little longer and make these little guys calm down.

"On a more pleasing note," he continued, "I am delighted to welcome two new teachers to our ranks this year.

"The first is Professor Lupine, who graciously agreed to fill the vacancy in Defense Against the Dark Arts."

There was some sporadic, less than enthusiastic applause.

Only those students who had been in the same carriage as him on the train clapped vigorously, and apparently Harry and Ron were among them.

Professor Lupine sat looking particularly shabby among all the well-dressed teachers.

"Look at Snape" Justin beside him whispered into Rolf's ear.

Snape, our Potions teacher, kept staring at Professor Lupin along the teacher's desk.

Everyone knows that Professor Snape has always wanted to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. After a few days of teaching, he was replaced again.

Of course, only Rolf could understand Snape's hatred. After all, Professor Snape was just a victim of campus bullying.

"As to our appointment of a second teacher," Dumbledore continued, after the less than enthusiastic applause for Professor Lupin had died down,

"Emm, I regret to tell you that our Care of Magical Creatures teacher, Professor Kettleburn, retired at the end of last year. He will have more time to spend with his little rascals.

However, I am pleased to say that his vacancy has been filled by none other than Rubeus Hagrid, who has agreed to take on the role of teacher in addition to his duties as gamekeeper. "

The little wizards below stared at each other, dumbfounded.Then they applauded enthusiastically, and the applause from the Gryffindor table was particularly enthusiastic.

Rolf raised his head and looked at Hagrid. He saw his face was red and he was staring at his big hands. His smile was hidden in his messy black beard.

"We should have known this a long time ago." Ron's roar came from the Gryffindor table in the distance. He pounded the table excitedly, "Who else would let us get a book that bites people?"

Oh, the biggest misconception in life, you think you can do it again.

But the problem arises again. Malfoy is obviously from the friendly camp. If Buckbeak is not executed, how can he keep it?

When Professor Dumbledore started talking again, the little wizards obviously saw that Hagrid was wiping his eyes with the tablecloth. He was really a sentimental big man.

"One last thing, our Mr. Filch may have suffered a serious decline in memory due to his old age, so he also made a request to retire from me.

And I'm still looking for a new administrator, so you'd better keep the castle clean these days, otherwise you'll have to clean it yourself.

Well, I think the important things have been said," said Dumbledore, "and let's begin our meal. "

Wait, what happened? Filch's memory has deteriorated so much since he retired. Could it be that Lockhart repeatedly cast the Oblivion Curse on him, causing his brain to become damaged?

No wonder I couldn't see Filch around during the last semester, and I was still wondering where he was.

However, it shouldn't happen that students clean up after themselves. After all, there are so many house elves around.
