Science students at Hogwarts

A gray-brown owl broke into the Room of Requirement. It circled in the air several times and accurately dropped the newspaper into the hands of a black-haired boy.

"Thanks, Hercules." He poured out a plate of owl rations from the pocket marked "Eela Owl Shop", "No, your reward."

Hercules landed lightly on the table and did not enjoy its reward immediately. His agile eyes kept looking around.

Justin slowly picked up the "Evening Prophet". Today's newspaper was much thicker than usual, so he sent the strong man Hercules.

Before he could turn the first page, a sudden change occurred!

Hercules quickly picked up the bag containing the owl food and flew quickly towards the window.

"Hey, you robber!" Pansy's eyes lit up, and he immediately hit "obstacles" to delay his movement.

Justin also reacted, but he didn't seem to remember that he was a wizard at all, and instead grabbed Hercules with his bare hands.

Hercules is worthy of its name. According to Elios, its combat power is at least as strong as that of a goose.

It flapped its wings fiercely and pecked at Justin mercilessly. After forcing Justin back, it rushed out again.

Such a big movement had already attracted the attention of other young wizards, and they all took out their wands to support the two.

The first-year wizards have not learned any destructive spells, but a powerful enemy like Durmstrang has spurred them on, and their accuracy is at least [-]% higher than before.

For a moment, all kinds of magic were flying in the Room of Requirement, with light overflowing. Hercules was flying up and down, and from time to time, exclamations of "It's coming here" were heard.

Elios sighed. The students at Hogwarts were becoming more and more fun-loving.

Take the last duel as an example. After watching Lockhart's performance, Ernie almost shouted "That's it?", and Pansy even mocked him for being a waste.

As for Parvati, who is worthy of being an Indian, she immediately thought of compensation.

The same is true now. What should today's scene be called?Hogwarts students vs. owls?

The violently shaking cup interrupted his thoughts. If they continued to act like this, the cup of soy milk that the elves had finally made might not be safe.

The black wand slid down the sleeve into the master's hand, and Elios shook the wand:

"Immobulus."

The owl that had been so arrogant just now stiffened up and fell straight to the ground.

This farce like a village kid fighting a goose is finally over.

Ernie lifted it up and proudly showed it to everyone.

"Ha, I finally caught you, you thief! I'll kick you out of Hogwarts immediately..." He shook it, making a MacMillan-style threat.

Elios sighed again.

Hercules is an owl!What's the use of threatening to drive it out of Hogwarts? !

Squeak, the door opened.

Several little wizards walked in noisily.

"Hermione, Kevin, you are simply not human!" Lavender looked at the snuff bottles in their hands with a look of resentment, "How did you do it? Please teach me!"

"Lavender, are you going to abandon me?" Parvati made an exaggerated heartbroken expression.

Lavender pushed her away in disgust, and Parvati was not annoyed. She turned around with a smile and asked the top students for today's transformation skills.

"Pavati, Lockhart's sentence has been handed down!" Justin waved the newspaper at her.

"Really?" The little money fan's eyes lit up, and she quickly took the heavy newspaper.

The headline of the Evening Prophet was "Shocked!"A recipient of the Merlin Order of Merlin, Level [-] actually did such a thing! 》.

You don’t need to read it to know that the author is Rita Skeeter.

Although Rita likes to make headlines and exaggerate facts, her professionalism is undeniable.

She explained the cause and effect in a few words, praised the Wizengamot's two-month-long effort to collect evidence, and finally hinted that Lockhart might be sheltered by Dumbledore.

Look!Both professional and entertaining.

No wonder "The Quibbler" is so unscrupulous in making things up, yet it still can't beat "The Daily Prophet."

But obviously it still cannot win the favor of all readers, such as Parvati.

"The Wizengamot announced that Lockhart would be sentenced to five years in prison, all Lockhart's property would be compensated to the victim, and a fine would be imposed..."

Parvati quickly flipped through the compensation list attached at the end of the article, and it was obvious that she did not find her name on it.

"That's not fair!" She raised her eyebrows and slapped the table.

This made Hercules, who had been provoking with constant howls, reveal a hint of human kindness in his eyes, and he calmed down sensibly.

Yes, this is indeed unfair.

Elios rarely agreed with her point of view.

Most of his fortune was to be reimbursed to the Knott family, who were responsible for the publication, and the remainder was divided equally between several victims.

It looks like a happy ending.

The victims were compensated, the perpetrators were punished, and in reality, those who were the real victims received far less than one percent of the Knott family's compensation.

"There are actually so many people petitioning for him, hoping to reduce his punishment?" Parvati was furious.

"Even if he were the devil, there would be a bunch of weaklings signing the petition and spilling tears from leaky pipes they could never fix." Ernie looked up, as if he was used to it.

Elios accidentally glanced at the large advertisement on the back cover of the newspaper:

"Lockhart's final book, The Secret of Smiling, is about to be released by Knott Press."

It looks like the Knott family is about to cut one last wave of leeks.

The 28 family has ruled the British magical world for too long. They are all his people. How can we fight against him?

Such words coming from Elios, a man with vested interests, can't help but seem a bit hypocritical.

But Elios resented this monopoly, even though he didn't know how to change it.

What happened today just left a seed in his heart. It is still unknown when it will grow into a big tree.

As for now?

He was just a guy who had fun watching Justin tame an owl.
