In the blink of an eye, the most difficult time for Emma came again.

"I don't want to start school"

Emma was carrying her bag, standing under the setting sun, her whole back seemed a little lonely.

"If you don't want to go, then don't go." Eva walked to her side, "Ask your father to write a letter to that magic school. I don't know how the security measures in your place are so that you have been missing for so long. It’s not that you weren’t injured, I have to take your school to court!”

"Okay, my dear, calm down." The good-tempered Edward hurried over to appease his wife's agitated emotions, "I believe Emma must have her own arrangements, you might as well listen to what she thinks. After all, she is 17 years old, and she can It’s time to make your own decision.”

"Uh, let me think about it." Although she felt physically and mentally exhausted every time she left home to go to school, it seemed that it was not in her plan to just stop going.But after all, the headmaster also talked about this issue with her. The current situation in the wizarding world is indeed unclear, and she also heard that the Ministry of Magic refused to face up to the fact that Voldemort had returned, and took Harry for interrogation a few days ago.However, their purpose is not to understand the truth, but to make Harry change his confession that Voldemort has not been resurrected.

It is also a misfortune for wizards to have such a Ministry of Magic that can only pretend to be dead.

"How about baby, have you decided?" Edward put his hand on her shoulder, "No matter what you decide, we will support you"

"Then I'll go back to school this year. After all, I didn't even say hello to my friends. It's not good to go away like this. And I think they will need me more this semester"

After saying these words, Emma felt that the color of the red scarf around her neck became more vivid (fog).

"Hey--" Eva sighed, "Since you've said that..."

"I'm sure Dumbledore will keep her safe," Edward interjected quickly, "Alec said they've already talked about this issue."

"Okay, baby Emma, ​​you must pay attention to safety." There was a faint sparkle in Eva's eyes.

"No problem, don't worry." Emma patted her chest, "I will remember to protect myself~"

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Harry okay? He looks very upset"

Emma quietly asked Ron at the opening ceremony.

"Hey, don't bother him, he has a lot of mess to worry about these days, and I heard that no one believed him at the interrogation meeting" Ron said while giving Harry a sympathetic look, " But did you see that old woman sitting next to Professor McGonagall? I bet she is this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."

Emma immediately looked up at the teacher's seat, and sure enough, there was a woman she had never seen before sitting beside Professor McGonagall.Although she had a smile on her face, it gave Emma a chilling feeling.Not to mention that she is still dressed like a little girl despite her age.

I don't know if I deliberately pretend to be tender because I want to disgust someone. . .May I ask which middle-aged aunt would still tie a bow on her head?She was dressed like a spinster who couldn't get married.

And old maids who can't get married are the hardest to get rid of!Emma immediately came to a conclusion in her mind.

But to her surprise, for some reason, Snape, who was sitting next to her, kept looking at her with resentment.

Did she do something wrong?

"Did you make any mistakes during the holiday? I think Snape's eyes are very unfriendly..." Emma poked Ron's elbow quietly again.

"Leave him alone, when was he friendly?" Ron snorted, "But did you see Hagrid?"

"Hagrid?"

Emma searched around the auditorium, but found no trace of the half-giant.

"Maybe he didn't come back from some mission," Harry added, "That woman's surname is Umbridge"

"You know him?"

"She attended my interrogation"

"Then she is from the Ministry of Magic, why..."

Before Emma could finish asking, Dumbledore's voice was heard.

"I would like to ask everyone to be quiet for a moment, and to listen to my notes for the new term as I do every year. This year, we have made two changes to our teaching staff. We are delighted to welcome back Professor Graplan, who will teach you Care of Magical Creatures. We are equally pleased to introduce Professor Umbridge, our new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher."

There was polite but not enthusiastic applause in the auditorium. Dumbledore didn't say how long Graplan would be teaching, which made Emma a little nervous. What happened to Hagrid?

However, Dumbledore did not continue to speak as in previous years, he stopped and looked at Umbridge with a questioning look.The latter coughed twice, then stood up suddenly.

"Thank you, Headmaster," said Professor Umbridge with a smirk, "for such a warm welcome."

Her voice was so high and shrill, and with the affected rhyme, Emma almost spat out her supper.

"Well, I must say, it's great to be back at Hogwarts!" She grinned, showing her sharp teeth, "It's great to see these happy little faces looking up at me !"

Happy little face? seriously?Emma hurriedly found the earplugs she had just bought from her bag. After putting them on, the whole world became much friendlier.Then she took out the pocket novel she carried with her and read it.

It's a rare time in life to be free~

After a while, she saw that the students in the auditorium started to stand up one after another. Emma quickly took off her earplugs and walked out of the auditorium with the crowd.

In fact, this is a good idea, and it can be used for a few more years in the future.

"Emma Leon" Snape suddenly blocked her way, his darkened face indicated that something very bad was about to happen.

"Uh, huh, long time no see, professor~" Emma tried to slap her.

"Put away your pathetic smirk and come with me!"

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------

"Well, professor, haven't we started school yet? Isn't it too early to go into confinement?" Emma tremblingly followed Snape into the cellar, "In this way you won't be afraid that the headmaster will say that you are an unknown teacher?"

"Don't talk to me about Dumbledore. I thought you were just a disgusting student before, but now I know..."

"Am I an obedient and good student?" Emma answered with sparkling eyes.

"Don't interrupt me!" Snape took a deep breath, his tone softened slightly, "Take your cat away"

"Eh?"

"Isn't what I said obvious enough? Take, you, the cat, away!"

"But... His Majesty is not in your office..."

Emma was now beginning to wonder if Snape had come to find fault on purpose.

"Hmph, it's just not here now"

???

What else can she do?Is she going to wait here until His Majesty returns?Although His Majesty disappeared after she and Voldemort started their trip to the deserted island, who would have thought that this rabbit who loves to eat grass by the side of the nest would fall in love with Snape!

"Then when will he come back?"

Snape looked up at the clock on the wall and sneered.

"almost"

The next few minutes were the longest minutes of Emma's life.

She even had the feeling that she would rather meet the eyes of Voldemort's noseless old bald man than feel Snape's low pressure here.

But when His Majesty opened the door and walked in slowly with haughty steps, what Emma felt was not relief but. . .

For a moment she was so frightened that she forgot to breathe.

Your Majesty, what's wrong with you! ! !What the hell did Snape do to you! ! !Did he give you a fattening potion? ! !

That's right, in just one vacation, His Majesty has changed from a graceful cat to a round cat that struggles to overcome its own gravity.

Think about it, His Majesty always liked to sleep on her body before, if he didn't get rid of this habit. . .

Emma gave Snape a sympathetic look, it was really hard for him.

Snape frowned at the inexplicable look in her eyes.He picked up His Majesty and prepared to hand it to Emma.

But Your Majesty is a stubborn cat, and he immediately burst out with agility that didn't match his figure.He was flailing non-stop in Snape's hands, probably because the oil and water were too good, and his smooth fur was obviously not very easy to control.As soon as Snape let go, he fell to the ground again, and jumped onto the sofa in Snape's office as fast as he could.

"This is what you taught?"

Snape's angry expression clearly said "no matter what your answer is, you're done for today"

"Professor, I am wronged! Your Majesty has been enslaving me, how dare I teach him!"

I don't know if it was Emma's exaggerated acting skills that conquered Snape or he thought of something else, he suddenly raised his hand and waved his wand, His Majesty airborne directly into Emma's arms.The heavy touch made her unable to stand still.

"Get out of my office! Immediately! Immediately!"

As if fearing another Jedi counterattack from His Majesty, just as Emma turned around, Snape pushed them out of the cellar.Before Emma could react, he even closed the door.

As for him?His Majesty is not a scourge, he is still a cute cat in essence!

Emma pursed her lips and carried His Majesty back to the dormitory.
