Hogwarts Wandering Wizard

Soon, October also ushered in its last days. Professor McGonagall also learned that Eric was about to attend the Wizengamot meeting. After the Transfiguration Club on Thursday night, he handed over several books to A Muggle law book that looked quite historical was handed to Eric.

"These books have been collecting dust in my home for a long time. I thought it would be better to give them to people who need them than to let them stay in the box and get eaten by insects."

Eric noticed that Professor McGonagall's eyes when reading these books were full of memories and sadness. He couldn't help but think of what he had seen about Professor McGonagall's life in his previous life. He immediately understood that this should be Professor McGonagall's husband who worked in the Department of Legal Enforcement during his lifetime. Books collected at that time.

The professor quickly wiped away the emotion in his eyes and looked at Eric holding the book expectantly and worriedly: "I don't understand what the Legal Committee is thinking about letting such a young child attend such a meeting. A solemn meeting, but Principal Dumbledore will accompany you, and I believe you can handle these situations with your maturity."

She gently patted Eric on the shoulder, as if a kind elder told him: "Have a rest tomorrow afternoon and read a book carefully. If you feel that the lounge is too noisy, you can come to this room."

Eric thanked Professor McGonagall and put the books into his backpack.

In fact, Catherine had been preparing for the weekend Legal Committee meeting for a long time. She had already listed many cases she had taken over for him a week ago, and she had also written a speech for him at the meeting.

But in Eric's opinion, this set of things really left him speechless.

The fundamental difference between the civil law system and the common law system is quite big. After confirming the facts, judges in the common law system prefer to follow past precedents. However, the magical world has had specific and unified laws against underage wizards a long time ago. Therefore, when Eric was "interrogated" in the principal's office, the officials sent by the Ministry of Magic had been inducing Eric to "confess" and admit that he had attacked his classmates in school, so that he could be punished.

Coincidentally, when Catherine brought this matter to the Department of International Magical Cooperation, the country where the current director and director of the Magical Law Office were based was a civil law system, which made them suspicious of this person who was about to encounter a disastrous situation The little wizard who was judged fairly felt sympathy and immediately contacted the British Ministry of Magic to strongly condemn his arbitrary behavior.

If it is a legal dispute in the Muggle world, the Department of International Magical Cooperation may follow the regulations of private international law, respect the territoriality and personal principles in the case, and agree with the British government's trial.

But it turns out that the Legal Committee of the Ministry of Magic is really rubbish. The various separate laws implemented in the past 50 years are full of loopholes. After a special envoy from the International Magical Law Office came to investigate in detail.The special envoy completely rejected the plans of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement and the Wizengamot Tribunal to deal with Eric, and ordered them to reconvene a meeting to formulate a new protection law for underage wizards.

Of course, Dumbledore also played a lot of roles here. After all, he is the British president of the International Federation of Wizards.

Eric was not at all panicked about the upcoming meeting. Although more than ten years had passed, he still remembered clearly the Law on the Protection of Minors he had learned in his previous life, and he wrote it down again in his notebook. Come down.

In his opinion, participating in this so-called legal meeting was nothing more than a dimensionality reduction attack.

As Halloween approaches, Hogwarts has also begun cheerful preparations.

Professor Flitwick and the senior students decorated the castle during the break. They changed the lampshades in the corridor to look like jack-o'-lanterns. The top of the clean and sleek corridor was also hung with many bats by the students, but They won't fly away, they will just keep opening and closing their wings.

The entire castle is like a major game update, with a Halloween patch. Even the armors on the fourth floor have been decorated with scary decorations. For example, the originally quiet heads have all been replaced by pumpkin heads that glow with red light. .

The students were surprised to find that Peeves, who had disappeared for a long time, appeared again, but this time he was even more violent than before.

Every time after class, you can see it hiding in the corridor, constantly hitting the passing students with smelly pumpkin pieces. Except for the students of Slytherin, almost all grades in the other three houses All the students were attacked by it and returned to the dormitory with a fishy smell.

Eric also met Peeves who was ambushing him when he was returning to the dormitory. Seeing the carefree little wizard in front of him, Peeves suddenly felt boundless anger in his heart: "You, it's you! "

It roared at Eric's back, stretched out its stubby fingers tremblingly, and pointed at him: "It's you who tricked me into going to find Bloody Barrow. It's you who tricked me into asking him about that damn thing. Questions are what caused me to suffer so much, despicable little wizard, one day, I will send you to Azkaban!"

Peeves screamed and threw the pumpkin pieces in his hand at him with a fierce look on his face, one after another, as if these things could kill Eric.

"Hey, why are you always provoking mindlessly?"

Eric sighed regretfully and took out his wand from his sleeve.

Wadi Wasi is a really useful spell, especially against Peeves.

Under Eric's spell, all the pumpkin fragments accelerated towards Peeves, surrounding his body as if kicking a ball. Amid his screams, they knocked him around and quickly He was kicked far away.

Peeves's unwilling roar came from a distance: "I will definitely come back, little devil. Next time, the great Lord Peeves will let you know what cruelty is!"

On Saturday morning, Eric had just finished breakfast when he received a note from Professor McGonagall, asking him to rush to the principal's office as soon as possible, where Professor Dumbledore was already waiting.

Eric stuffed his school bag into the system space and said hello to Professor Seamus who was coming downstairs as he passed by the third floor.

"Be careful today, Welfare, they are not the ones who follow the rules."

Professor Seamus smiled and smoothed the wrinkles on Eric's clothes, and handed him a piece of chocolate: "Eat one piece first, or you will faint later!"

Ok?

Seeing the professor's gloating expression, Eric suddenly felt an unpleasant feeling in his heart.

Could it be that Principal Dumbledore was going to take him to Apparate to London?

With all kinds of random guesses in his mind, he stepped into the principal's office. Looking at the still luxurious decoration in the principal's room, he subconsciously looked at the wall on the right, where all the principals in the history of Hogwarts were hung. portrait.

His eyes searched inside and soon found the portrait of the principal that had melted into a puddle of ink in front of him last month.

Professor Dumbledore had somehow restored him to health, and now he was lying on his wooden chair, resting quietly.

"That is Elton Farrar, the second headmaster of Hogwarts. It is said that he is Lady Rowena Ravenclaw's favorite pupil."

An old voice sounded behind the desk. Albus Dumbledore was sitting behind the desk, holding a quill in his hand and writing rapidly. He seemed to be writing a letter to someone. At the same time, he said to Eric: "You You know, it’s not easy to restore him because he lived so long ago. It took me a week to repair his portrait, and I also went to the London library to check out many books from 1000 years ago.”

Dumbledore stuffed the letter in his hand into a purple envelope, carefully handed it to Fox's paw, stared into Phoenix's eyes, and said seriously: "You must let him see this letter. .”

The phoenix let out a soft chirp, and the golden feathers behind its head rubbed against the rough palm of the old principal. It flapped its wings and flew up, turning into a flame and rushing into the burning fireplace.

"For our convenience, the Ministry of Magic has temporarily connected my office to the Floo network. This must be your first time using this thing!"

The principal handed a small jar containing green powder to Eric and motioned for him to grab a small handful: "Just step into the fireplace and call the Ministry of Magic."

After speaking, the professor sprinkled a handful of powder on the fireplace, dyeing the flames inside green, and then raised his hand to Eric to let him go in first.

Looking at the blazing green flames, Eric exhaled, stepped into the flames, felt the temperatureless flames around him, and shouted out the words of the Ministry of Magic.

In a burst of blazing green flames, his body was enveloped in growing flames and dissipated from the fireplace.
