HP: I’m working on redemption at Hogwarts

Chapter 74 Dementors surround the castle

The train to Hogwarts moved forward slowly and in an orderly manner, accompanied from time to time by the roaring whistle and various noisy shouts from people selling snacks in the carriage.

Qiu Zhang leaned against the window, looking at the scenery outside the window from time to time, his brows almost knitted together.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing that Qiu Zhang's expression seemed wrong, Cedric followed Qiu Zhang's gaze and looked out the car window. The foggy sky enveloped the earth, and the air was dull and dull.

"I have a bad feeling..."

Qiu Zhang seemed to be talking to himself or answering Cedric's doubts. His eyes were fixed on the countless elegant and slender figures under the dark and scary clouds.

Not long after, the carriage where Cho Chang and Cedric were sitting began to tremble violently, and the air suddenly turned cold. The violent tremors and shaking seemed to overturn the train onto the track at any time.

Cedric subconsciously held back the tremors like an earthquake and stumbled towards Qiu Zhang opposite him. He held Qiu Zhang's hand tightly and protected Qiu Zhang in his arms.

The surrounding air seemed to be frozen. Although the doors and windows in the carriage were closed, it felt like being in an extremely cold place with ice and snow. Qiu Zhang subconsciously shrugged due to the cold. Cedric carefully approached Qiu Zhang and put his arms around Qiu Zhang. He rubbed Qiu Zhang's shoulders slightly.

The light bulbs inside and outside the carriage have failed. The lights in the corridor flicker on and off, which is extremely scary. A tall and scary figure in a black cloak passes through the door of the carriage.

After a long time, as the tall black shadow left, the flickering lights turned completely dark, and the air gradually warmed up, relaxing Qiu Zhang and Cedric's tense emotions.

"What are those?"

"It's a Dementor!"

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

The train returned to stability, and finally arrived at Hogwarts safely. I got off the train and looked up at the sky above the entire Hogwarts Castle. There were already countless black shadows of Dementors hovering and patrolling...

"Hey, Autumn!"

Marietta's excited voice came, and Qiu Zhang looked sideways, and saw Marietta sitting in the carriage wearing a cape and hat to greet Qiu Zhang, and then immediately closed her hands and hugged her arms, looking very cold.

"Mary!"

Cho Chang also smiled at Mary in surprise, and got into the still empty carriage with Cedric.

On the way, it suddenly started to rain lightly. Qiu Zhang used a magic wand to cast a spell to block the carport above everyone's heads, but the dampness and coldness in the air and the panic he had just felt in the car still couldn't be relieved.

"Mary, what's in your arms?"

The air inside the carriage was probably dull, and the bulging things in Marietta's thick robe kept poking around.

Seeing the direction of Qiuzhang's finger, Marietta lowered her head and glanced at the little thing moving in her arms. She nodded in realization and untied the cloak to reveal the thing inside.

A brown toad bigger than the palm of your hand!

toad!

Qiu Zhang's eyes widened suddenly, and he sat back a little nervously. Cedric noticed Qiu Zhang's nervousness and slowly put his arm in front of Qiu Zhang.

"Oh, sorry~"

Marietta immediately put the big toad back into her cloak and hid it. While hiding it, she patted the toad's head and whispered comfort.

"Sweet, please be patient..."

"sweet?"

Cho Chang screwed up his face and hesitantly repeated Marietta's words. Marietta smiled and proudly showed off to Qiu Zhang.

"Yep, Professor Flitwick chose me to join the choir, and this is my little partner!"

"OK, fine!"

Qiu Zhang does not respect but understands that he is afraid of toads and may not be able to get close to the choir in his life...

……

At the opening dinner, after the first-year students were assigned to colleges, students from each college sat at their respective long tables.

Everyone was excitedly discussing the fun of summer vacation or meeting like-minded new classmates, and the whole auditorium suddenly fell into a noisy and lively scene.

"Slience! I understand that everyone is excited, but now please calm down and watch the chorus performance of Professor Flitwick's orchestra!"

Professor Dumbledore took the lead in applauding, and then the tables in various schools in the auditorium gradually became quiet, and there was sparse and lively applause.

Looking at Marietta standing in the front row, she hummed confidently and looked excited.

Qiu Zhang in the audience was also happy for Marietta, smiling and waving to Marietta on the stage to encourage her.

As expected, the choir led by Professor Flitwick performed brilliantly. The Hogwarts school song they sang was much better than the usual songs with various strange tunes...

Wow! ! !

marvelous! ! !

Warm and endless applause sounded in the auditorium, and the joyful mood enveloped the entire castle.

In the new school year, what is gratifying is that Hogwarts has replaced that idiot Professor Lockhart, with the new Professor Lupine as their Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.

The man who looked slovenly and casual stood up from the teacher's chair and slowly bowed to his classmates.

Looking at the new professor on the stage, Qiu Zhang only hoped that the professor this time would be more reliable...

Another piece of good news is that Hagrid will be the professor of the Care of Magical Creatures course forever.

Regarding this matter, Qiu Zhang believed that everyone was as excited and happy as she was. Although Professor Hagrid only helped Professor Kettleburn to teach them a few classes in the third grade, Hagrid's interesting and practical teaching methods and Kate's Professor Erborn's rather boring theoretical teaching made a big difference.

Finally, Professor Dumbledore announced the not so good news about the origin of all the Dementors on the train and hovering over Hogwarts Castle.

Due to the escape of Sirius and Peter Pettigrew, the Ministry of Magic specially sent dementors from Azkaban to patrol Hogwarts until the two fugitives were caught.

"Ah...then I have to see those terrifying figures all the time. I don't want..."

Marietta frowned, her high-spirited temperament that she had just sang was gone, and she lowered her head and let out a long sigh.

Qiu Zhang was also a little worried, frowned, pursed his lips, and comforted Marietta.

"It's okay, the professors at Hogwarts will protect everyone!"
