In the bright office, Augustine looked at Rick nervously.Hermione on the other side was thinking about how to apologize to Augustine.

"Okay, if you have nothing to do, you can go back. Miss Abbott is still waiting for you in the common room. Don't let her worry too much. Hermione, Ron, you two will go too. Thank you for your hard work!"

After Rick finished reading Augustine's homework, he wrote an "O" on it with a quill dipped in red ink, then raised his head and looked at the three of them.

"Okay, Professor Graves!" x3

After hearing Rick's words, the three said goodbye to Rick.He turned around and walked out of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office.

Seeing that the students had left, Rick began to recall what Principal Dumbledore had just told him.Aurors from the Ministry of Magic have conducted extensive searches in the Forbidden Forest in the past two months, but have not found any trace of the dark wizard.

Fudge told Dumbledore that these Aurors would stay at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry until Christmas. If the dark wizard was still not found, they would evacuate Hogwarts.

The reason is that they thought that after the dark wizard's bone dragon was defeated by Rick, they realized that the invasion of Hogwarts was too dangerous and gave up.In addition, the Ministry of Magic stationed one out of four Aurors at Hogwarts for two months. More than ten murders occurred in the UK. The Ministry of Magic was under great pressure and needed these Aurors to join in the process of arresting criminals. Instead of waiting at Hogwarts for that illusive dark wizard.

Rick was filled with contempt for the Ministry of Magic's decision.It was obviously because of his poor investigative skills that he failed to find the dark wizard.The result actually came to the conclusion that the dark wizard had left the Forbidden Forest.

But when I think about it, the British Ministry of Magic was easily controlled by Voldemort after the rise of Voldemort.Rick also lowered his expectations for the British Ministry of Magic.

"It seems that I need to enter the Forbidden Forest again during Christmas. My intuition tells me that the dark wizard is still hiding in the Forbidden Forest..."

Although there is no evidence, Rick's powerful sixth sense tells him that the dark wizard must have the most important thing to accomplish when he appears in the Forbidden Forest.

And he's a house elf.His thoughts cannot be understood by the human mind.

Yes, that's right.

In the memory of the house elf Yaya, the dark wizard was wrapped in a thick black fog, but Dumbledore still judged from his shape that it was a house elf.

When Dumbledore told Rick the news, Rick didn't believe it at first. He thought it was a trick.But based on his own reasoning, he discovered that it might actually be an elf.

And it was a house elf that had not been tamed by a wizard.

After the race war in the wizarding world, all the elves became slaves of humans.There are no longer any house elves in Britain who have not been enslaved.

It is extremely unusual for an untamed house elf to appear in the Forbidden Forest.

So Dumbledore suspected that this was an ancient elf that had been sleeping for thousands of years and that he was looking for his companions.But when he met Yaya and the house elves in the Forbidden Forest, he found that they were actually enslaved by human wizards.

In anger, he killed all these traitors.He kept Yaya alone because he wanted her to take him into Hogwarts and rescue or kill these fellow humans who were enslaved by humans.

Unfortunately, when he took Yaya to Hogwarts, he met the centaur Firenze.

The appearance of the centaur Firenze ruined his plan and allowed Yaya to escape.He released the bone dragon and wanted it to destroy Hogwarts.But I happened to meet Rick.After the Bone Dragon was defeated, he knew that he was not strong enough to secretly invade Hogwarts, so he stayed dormant.

Dumbledore told Fudge his conjecture, but Fudge thought it must be a human wizard in disguise. He didn't think there would be an ancient elf alive to this day.

In fact, Rick also reserved his own opinions on Dumbledore's conjecture because of the emergence of the "Black Death".

In the entire wizarding world, records of the curse "Black Death" began in the United States a hundred years ago.If this elf existed thousands of years ago, then there must be records of this curse in ancient books.

But Rick consulted a large number of books and could not find any information about the "Black Death" in the history of thousands of years ago.

"Demon King... It seems that we still need to go to the centaurs tribe again. Let them conduct astronomical divination again."

After withdrawing his thoughts, Rick took out Pandora from behind.Today is the semi-monthly senior leadership meeting of Light Spot Game Studio, and the time is almost up.It's time for him to enter the "Magic Network" and meet his old friends and employees.

......

Snow was flying heavily, and snowflakes as big as goose feathers slapped on the bodies of the three little wizards.In order to prevent the snowflakes from drifting into their necks, the three of them tightly covered their necks with their collars.He lowered his head and ran quickly towards the dormitory castle.

"Augustin, wait. These are your strange-flavored beans. Give them back!"

After entering the castle, Hermione hurriedly patted the snow off her body.When she raised her head again, she found that Augustine was already walking towards the Hufflepuff basement.After touching the strange-flavored beans in her pocket, she hurriedly ran to catch up with Augustine in front of her.

"Ah, you can eat this. I have already given it away. How can I get it back again?"

Augustine turned around and found Hermione's hand holding the strange-flavored beans stretched out in front of him.Hermione's little face had turned red because of running in the snow just now.

"No. I misunderstood you just now. How can I accept your snacks now? Take it quickly, or I will be angry."

Hearing Augustine's refusal, Hermione felt guilty again.She pushed the strange-flavored beans in her hand into Augustine's arms and looked at him pretending to be angry.

"Forehead!"

Looking at Hermione's red face, plus the two little tiger teeth exposed when she was angry.Augustine suddenly felt that his heart was beating a little fast.Holding the returned strange-flavored beans in both hands, I didn't know what to say for a long time.

"Hermione, come on! Ginny said, Harry is waiting for us in the common room!"

Hermione turned around and saw Ron's figure. She was Ginny Weasley, a first-year student and Ron's sister.

"Okay! Then Augustine, see you tomorrow!"

Not paying much attention to Augustine who was standing there motionless, Hermione turned around and ran quickly towards Ron and Ginny.

Looking at Hermione leaving, Augustine felt that the strange-flavored beans in his hand did not have the same strong temptation as before. He didn't know the reason for this.Augustine shook his head and walked towards the Hufflepuff common room.
