On Wednesday evening of the first week of school, Harry and Ron had just finished their dinners. They were standing at the exit of the dining hall, and together with a group of bustling students of all grades watched the sudden temporary notice on the wall of the auditorium gate.
That is undoubtedly the work of their new magic open class professor, Professor Anne! There are two lines of comments written on the wall with enlarged fluorescent magic letters: To all teachers and students, tonight, at 19 o'clock, the first magic open class will be held in the largest classroom on the third floor of Hogwarts Main Castle! Some tricks of casting without a stick are taught! No matter who it is, as long as you are interested, you can listen! - Your Professor Anne Hasta!
"How is it? Harry! How are you thinking? Are you going? Anyway, I might want to go and see it." Ron turned around and asked Harry next to him. He was still very interested in this first open class! Just as Professor Anne wrote on it, what she was going to talk about was the skill of casting without a stick! This was really important to him, Ron!
Because, Ron is still using the broken and old wand until now in the second grade. He doesn't know how many handmade wands it is! This is also impossible. There are too many children in the Veles family, and he can almost form a family Quidditch team!
In addition, his family's economy is not very rich, and his income is basically all borne by Mr. Veles, who works in the Ministry of Magic. Ron is the youngest boy in Veles' family, so almost everything he uses, including this magic wand was eliminated by his brother's brother's brother! Anyway, many people in his family have used it in the end, and in the end, he will always be his turn! If you look at this magic wand carefully, you will find that some parts of it are cracked, and even when Ron exerts too much force, you can clearly see the glowing core of the wand inside!
Now, the reason why it has not broken itself is mainly because Ron has tied up the cracked area with several layers of tape! Just last school year, when Ron used it to cast spells, he was even retaliated against himself! It is precisely because of this that he was ridiculed by his old rival Malfoy for so long!
There was a huge opportunity in front of Ron. Their new open class teacher actually wanted to teach casting spells without sticks! Melin! The first time he saw this news, among the teachers and students in the school, he was probably the happiest of Ron! Because, this was simply a sleepy pillow for him! He has been bothered by the wand problem, and there is no better news than this!
If! If Ron could learn to cast spell without a stick, then could he throw away the damn ragged wand that stayed in his pocket? Ron had actually had enough of it! It would be fine if the casting often didn't work! The most annoying thing is that you will never know when it will suddenly retaliate against its master! If anyone takes it to the battlefield to fight the enemy, the one who died first will definitely not be an enemy!
Ron had always been thinking that his grades were not very good, was it because of it? It was because of this damn broken wand? Otherwise, how could his own grades be worse than Harry? Ron himself grew up in the wizarding world! It could not be worse than Harry who grew up in the Muggle world, right?! It seems that this must be the case! Everything is the fault of this wand! It is the culprit!
"It's not bad if you go! But, Ron, you should know that we still have a lot of homework that has not been written yet! There are at least twenty pages in total!" Harry was a little hesitant, and he was unsure of whether to attend the class at night?
When he was in the potion class this afternoon, he was scolded by Snape again! Anyway, he was used to it, and it was almost routine! But this time it was a little more troublesome. He was punished to copy a full ten pages of potion recipe! That was ten pages! How long would it take to copy?
If you want to go to the magic open class at night, what should you do if you have to hand in the morning? Snape might even curse him! If Harry dares not hand in the homework, it will definitely not be a matter of slandering! What will happen later is already terrifying just to think about it!
"Homework? That's right! But it should be fine! We can wait until we return to the lounge after class and then make up for it! At worst, if we go to bed a little later tonight, we will definitely be able to get out! Let's go back and prepare quickly, don't be late again later!" Ron refused without waiting for Harry to refuse, and quickly pulled him to run to the Gryffindor's lounge! This was the class at 19 o'clock in the evening, and there was not much time left now, so they needed to go back to the lounge to pack up something.
"Hmph!" Among the onlookers, Malfoy looked at Harry and Ron who were running away, and snorted coldly with disdain.
"Crab, Goll! Are you going to attend the open class tonight?" Anyway, Malfoy must have to attend the first class of the evening. This is his father's explanation!
Two nights ago, after the school party, he wrote a letter to inform his father Lucius Malfoy and truthfully told Dumbledore's announcement! Then, while having breakfast the next morning, his father's reply came overnight! In the letter, Old Malfoy repeatedly told him to attend the class that mysterious little girl! You must not be absent!
As one of the few old nobles in the wizarding world, Shius Malfoy certainly knows the importance of power to nobles! Only power can protect their rights, money and status! And chasing more powerful power is the principle of their old nobles! Otherwise, what do you think so many of them supported Voldemort's madman at the time? Is it fun to make trouble with a lunatic? That's just a manifestation of their pursuit of power and power! Because Voldemort had something they had always longed for at that time!
After the Gringott Wizard Bank incident last month, the old nobles quickly reached a consensus! They were already confident that the little girl named Anne would definitely be stronger than Voldemort they had once hoped for! More terrifying! And more in line with their requirements! After all, the plasticity of a little girl is too high! It is far from comparable to that lunatic Voldemort!
Since that's the case, it would be very necessary to have a good relationship with this mysterious little girl earlier! They actually wanted to do that! They always knew that the mysterious little girl had lived in the home of the Muggle female student named Hermione! And the reason why they never dared to act was just because they didn't have a suitable and appropriate excuse to approach her!
But they would never have thought that now they were taken first by Dumbledore's cunning bastard! This powerful little girl had been fooled by him into Hogwarts to teach and start classes! And these people could not even find the opportunity for initial contact!
At this point, they had to admit defeat, and then they quickly reminded their children at home who were still studying in Hogwarts, asking them to be sure not to miss any class from the mysterious little girl: Professor Anne! And no matter whether they can understand it or not, they must take complete notes and send them back after class!
"Go to attend the class? Or don't want it? I'm too tired today!" As soon as he heard that he was going to attend the class, Crab and Gore expressed a little unhappy on the spot!
When they think that when there is no class at night, it should be a time to rest. How beautiful is drinking milk tea comfortably in the lounge? Even if you eat a few more puddings to raise your weight! Why do you have to go to the class so hard? Besides, open classes are not included in the grades! Then why do you still listen to it? Why do you have to make yourself feel unhappy!
"I warn you now! Go to the classroom on the third floor and take a good place for me! Go now! Go now! Otherwise!" Malfoy stared at the two idiots in front of him! He also gritted his teeth, looked vicious, and took out his own magic wand and pointed the head of the stick at the two. Do they really think they are discussing with them? This is his order!
After seeing that these two followers were finally scared by him and ran to take up a position, Malfoy secretly spitted in his heart! These two foodies are simply muddy and can't stand up to the wall! Are you not going to listen to such an important course? Now I do this for their own good!
......
Hermione also stood outside the crowd, and followed several classmates whom she knew, and looked at the notification on the wall. In fact, she knew about Annie's open class today! After all, when choosing a classroom, Hermione was the one she went to help Annie choose!
But what made her laugh and cry was that little Annie didn't write down the door number of the classroom! There were two or three large classrooms on the third floor! What's the use of just writing like this? I'm afraid many people don't know which one is the biggest one? I hope those who want to attend classes haven't found the wrong place! Hermione began to imagine the interesting scenes after some classmates found the wrong classroom.
Originally, Hermione planned to feed her little phoenix first before taking a seat, but after seeing so many classmates being so interested in open classes, Hermione thought about it and finally decided that it would be better to take a seat early! Just take a book first and put it in the position, and then look back to find her little phoenix Jinx! Anyway, it must have gone to Professor Dumbledore's principal's office to look for Fox again! It should be hungry for the time being!
"Hey~! Hermione! What do you think of this class? I guess you must be going to listen to the class in a while, right?" A girl's voice sounded behind Hermione.
"Oh! So it's Parvati! Of course! I will never miss any course." Hermione turned around and saw the face of the classmate who was talking to him, and then looked at the other person's robe before laughing.
Parvati also has a twin sister in Lavenclaw, and it seems that her name is Padma. The two twin girls look too similar, and sometimes even Hermione can't tell them. Fortunately, the robes of the four academy are not the same style, so Hermione can also distinguish them by the academy robes and the academy icons. But if both girls are wearing plain clothes, she may not have any way! When they first met, they often deliberately dressed exactly the same to spoof her!
"Dear Hermione, are the words written on the wall real? No matter who anyone can really cast a spell without a stick? You should know any internal news? Let's talk about it now!" Parvati, as one of Hermione's best friends, came up without seeing anything and asked in a low voice in Hermione's ear.
Anyway, everyone in Hogwarts school knew that Hermione had a close relationship with the new Professor Anne, and Padma also knew that it was the classroom that Hermione chose for Professor Anne yesterday. If you want to know the relevant internal news about Professor Anne's course, it would be absolutely right to find Hermione!
"Oh! Padma! You are so, okay! You should take a look! I will only demonstrate it once for you!" Hermione shook her head and looked at her best friend helplessly. After she couldn't resist the other party's coquettishness, she had to stretch out a finger and aimed at a large book that had been placed on the table.
"Yugadimule Viosa!" As the spell that Hermione chanted softly, the book actually floated slowly under Padma's surprised gaze!
At present, Hermione can only cast the rodless spell of this floating spell, because it is too difficult for her to build a spell model or cause magic resonance! She is far from able to do anything now! Moreover, the rodless spell is only achieved with Anne step-by-step help and using some tips! Nei cannot lose any spells and gestures! Only the magic wand can be saved for the time being! Even so, it can be said to be a huge improvement!
"Merlin's beard! Hermione! You! You can really cast spells without a stick!" Parvati looked at the textbook floating in the air and looked at Hermione in shock. "Then why do you still have to attend the class? Haven't you learned it all?"
"Learning is endless! Dear Parvati! Maybe you can get some new gains when you listen to it today? Okay, let's go quickly! After a while, there will be no good place!" Hermione reached out and took away the floating book, then went forward to grab the arm of her best friend Parvati, dragged her hard and walked out the door.
Parvati was stunned and let Hermione pull her to the large classroom on the third floor. As a poor student, she barely went up a little bit, and she said she could not understand Hermione's world of academic masters! Since she had learned to cast a spell without a stick, shouldn't she play with the extra time? Why did Hermione still try so hard to learn?
Sure enough! Rome cannot be built in one day, and academic masters cannot be easily used by anyone! She Parvati finally understood why Hermione could easily surpass them in grades!
......
Time flies very quickly, and it is about to be nineteen o'clock! When Harry and Ron walked into the door of the magic open class five minutes in advance with confidence, they were instantly shocked by the crowded scene in front of them!
According to their previous experience, no matter which course they take, it would be more than enough to only arrive five minutes in advance! In that case, there would be no need to worry about being late and being scolded, and there would definitely be better seats! But how could they have thought that the result would be like this?
What is the situation? Not only is there no seats, but the crowds are almost full of people in the spare aisles! Some people even sit directly on the edge of the window! At first glance, there are at least hundreds of people, right?
Harry and Ron couldn't believe everything they saw in front of him! Could it be that the teachers and students of Hogwarts were here? Is it so exaggerated? It was just an open class! Merlin! The two of them actually saw Dumbledore! Not only him, but also a group of professors were also with him! These people also occupied the best first row of positions in the classroom!
Seeing this situation in front of him, Harry and Ron, who were standing at the door, were a little stunned! They didn't know what to do! A large group of people in the classroom were staring at them silently and staring at them! Their eyes seemed to be saying that these two people were the kind of poor students who were specifically late and made the teacher angry!
This was really embarrassing! Under the gaze of everyone, Ron and Harry felt that it was neither right to advance nor retreat! If they had known that this was the case, they would probably not dare to come, right?
"Oh! It turns out to be Harry! This is such a coincidence! Come here! Come here, I seem to have a redundant place left here! Come here, kid!" After seeing Harry coming, Dumbledore finally breathed a sigh of relief, then gave up a position next to him, and waved to Harry with a smile.
Snape and Hermione were sitting on the other side. Dumbledore was a little worried just now, for fear that Harry, a student he hoped for and focused on training, would not come! The good position he specially prepared for him was finally not in vain!
Of course, he only reserved one place. As for Ron Veles? Please, stay wherever you are cool! Could it be that I still want me to give my position to you? It’s such a winkless thing! Why are you doing some corrupting? Isn’t you embarrassed?
"Professor Dumbledore? Well, and Snape...Professor, why are you all here to listen to the class?" Harry was pulled to the seat by Dumbledore.
After seeing no one paying attention to him, Ron on the side could only stand in the aisle awkwardly and felt very aggrieved for a moment! Especially after seeing the two twin brothers in the third row seats, his resentment became even greater! Since they could sit in the third row, they must have come very early, right? Then why didn’t they think about taking a place for themselves? Are they still their younger brother?
"Harry, you have to know that there are too many unknowns in the world of magic! Sometimes, the more we know, the more questions we will have! No matter when, some novel ideas will always bring us new inspiration! Listen more and see more, you will never be wrong! No one is born to be omniscient and omnipotent, and we can only arm our minds through continuous learning and continuous exploration. Therefore, be sure not to miss Professor Anne's class in the future! Don't be late!" Dumbledore replied to Harry with a smile.
Snape next to him glanced at the principal after hearing this, and said disdainfully: Old man! If you want to learn secretly, just tell me clearly! Just talk nonsense about these useless truths, why do you say so well?
At the beginning, Snape was still very puzzled by Dumbledore's two front seats! He only had one butt, wouldn't he feel ashamed to sit in two seats? So many students could only stand! It's just that they dared not speak out due to his identity as the principal! But now when they looked, they realized that this old man was leaving it for the savior Potter!
In Snape's opinion, the old man Dumbledore is hypocritical! He is your student, isn't others? Why do you spoil him so much? The wings of the eagle become hard in the fight against the wind and waves, and you can't raise tenacious flowers in the greenhouse! If you spoil him so much, you will always regret it!
In fact, Snape's feelings for Harry Potter, Lily's only son are very complicated, both love and hate! Love is deep and hate is also intense! Love is because he is Lily's son! Hate is because he is the son of his rival love! But love always exceeds hatred!
Because of this, Snape is so strict with Harry! I hope he can learn more useful knowledge and make him stronger! Don’t repeat his mother’s mistakes! You must know that Voldemort is not dead yet! Maybe one day he will survive again! At that time, how could Voldemort let him go, the savior? He never has another great mother to protect him with his life!
The reason why Snape treated Porter coldly was to use this method to spur him! Let him go farther and faster! This is an alternative way for him to express his feelings! This may also be the reason why he lost so thoroughly and miserably in his pursuit of Lily back then! Because Snape would not express his emotions in normal ways at all!
