A day of learning magic at Hogwarts

Chapter 33 The Story of Professor Quirrell

Ian just held the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher's hand and walked through one bookshelf after another.

Soon, he found his purpose.

A black booklet about canine magical creatures common in Britain and Ireland. It looks quite inconspicuous and is placed in the corner of the bookshelf...if it weren't for the fact that Ian Traister loved dogs before he traveled through time. , otherwise it would be impossible to access this book.

The expression on Professor Quirrell's face looked very excited.

He quickly took the black booklet from Ian's hand and quickly opened it.

"Are you in such a hurry..." Ian was a little confused.

The look of Professor Quirrell was very similar to the way he looked when he got stuck on a level while playing a game, and then frantically checked the strategy.

After a few minutes, he seemed to have found what he was looking for——

I saw him quickly folding the page.

If this kind of malicious destruction of books is discovered by Mrs. Pingsi, even the teacher will inevitably be scolded by her.

"Okay, thank you, Drizzt!" Leaving these words behind, Professor Quirrell quickly walked to the management room to go through the book borrowing procedures.

He didn't stutter at all when he said the last sentence.

Ian put his hands on his hips and leaned against the bookshelf, squinting his eyes and looking at Professor Quirrell's back not far away.

Professor Quirrell, have you forgotten something?

It seems that I have done you a favor!

You don't want to give Hufflepuff House five or ten points, but just leave like this?

Ian kept doing that for about a minute.

After that, he walked slowly into the management room.

……

When Ian came to the management room, Professor Quirrell had already completed the book borrowing procedures and left in a hurry.

Mrs. Pince, still holding the feather duster in her hand, saw him at a glance: "Drizzt, what's the matter?"

Mrs. Pince has always been a very bad-tempered person and is often very cruel to students in the library, but fortunately she has a pretty good impression of Ian.

"Professor Quirrell actually came to the library to borrow books..." Ian said slowly, "I'm surprised. This is the first time I see the teacher in the library."

"Yes, it is indeed a rare thing!" Mrs. Pince put away the feather duster and then took a sip of the brewed tea on the table. "Professor Quirrell seemed quite anxious. I don't know if he met her at work." Something went wrong... This kid, I often mistakenly think he is still a child in my eyes, after all, he has only graduated a few years ago; when he was young, he was also a frequent visitor to the library, just like you!"

"When Professor Quirrell was young!" Ian suddenly became very interested. "Can you tell me, Mrs. Pince?"

"It hasn't been a few years, and most of the teachers in the school should still remember him. Quirinus Quirrell, a Ravenclaw, had a very smart mind and read books well. The teachers all spoke highly of him.

While drinking tea, Mrs. Pince fell into memories: "His results in the Advanced Wizarding Test (NEWT) were extremely good. Professor Dumbledore allowed him to apply to stay in school and serve as a teacher. This is a great honor. "

"Teacher of Defense Against Dark Arts?" Ian was a little curious.

Judging from my past experience, I can stay in school after graduation, even if it is just to be an ordinary counselor.It is also enough to prove that this graduate performed very well during his schooling.

Professor Quirrell was actually able to take on the important task of being a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher after graduation... I never expected that this stuttering teacher was actually a solid academic master when he was young.

"Of course not..." Mrs. Pince shook her head, "It's a Muggle studies class. He is quite interested in this."

"The Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at the time was Professor Trocca, a likeable guy... However, the Daily Prophet revealed that his true identity was a vampire. Professor Dumbledore had no choice but to kill him. Resigned, and Professor Quirrell took his place..."

"Vampire...Professor..." Ian complained secretly in his heart, "What are these? There won't be another werewolf professor in the future...Fortunately, I only entered the school this year..."

"Then what happened a few months ago..." Mrs. Pince continued, "In order to better qualify for the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Quirrell took a long leave. It is said that he wanted to gain first-hand knowledge. Practical experience——"

"Where did he go? It seems to be Albania... But that trip didn't seem to go well. It is said that he met another vampire in the black forest, and a witch caused him big trouble. These events almost changed him. People have become a little neurotic, afraid of students and the subjects they teach... just like they are now."

"That damn purple headscarf, and the smelly garlic inside." Mrs. Pince suddenly became irritable again:

"Damn, I still have that ridiculous garlic smell in my room! It's unreasonable."

Seeing her excitement, Ian left the management room knowingly.

……

What Ian was thinking about was still about Professor Quirrell.

Logically speaking, it seems that there is no reason for me to doubt Professor Quirrell.Looking at his resume, he can be regarded as a direct descendant of Hogwarts and is deeply trusted by Dumbledore.

However, vaguely, I felt that something was wrong.

Forget it, this kind of thing has nothing to do with me anyway.

The one who needs to worry about these things is Harry Potter, the savior.

Speaking of which, tomorrow is the first round of the Quidditch match——

Hufflepuff versus Ravenclaw, Gryffindor versus Slytherin.

Harry Potter is Gryffindor's Seeker and the youngest Seeker in the history of Hogwarts.He is currently in the whirlpool of public opinion. Some people say that it only takes him 10 minutes to catch the Golden Snitch, while others say that he will fall down after flying in the air for less than 5 minutes.

To be honest, Ian is also looking forward to the protagonist's performance on the Quidditch field.

So he decided to stay and watch Gryffindor's game against Slytherin after watching Hufflepuff versus Ravenclaw...
