Hogwarts becomes host

After they started chatting, Elaine discovered that Dumbledore didn't know everything.

Perhaps, the Dumbledore in Harry's eyes is the truly omniscient and omnipotent, but now, the Dumbledore in front of Elaine is an old man who is troubled by many chores, troubles, and Voldemort.

The huge British wizarding world can't find a few wizards who can take on important responsibilities. The outstanding talents are either killed by Voldemort, or they are frightened and protect themselves wisely. Fudge's appointment shows everything.

The International Federation of Magicians is engaged in intrigues, the British Ministry of Magic has become synonymous with incompetence and corruption, and the Wizengamot is constantly making strange proposals to try to fish in troubled waters. Now there are many more clues about Voldemort to verify, and Dumbledore is really busy. , so busy that he could only leave Harry to Snape for protection, and only pay attention to him occasionally.

Harry is like this, let alone Elaine.

Dumbledore made it clear that since you are actually 28 years old, a mature adult with enough judgment, he will not get involved unless you ask for help yourself or the situation is dire, and he does not want to know anything about the Shafik family. secret.

"Also, please take care of Harry nearby─"

"No." Elaine replied instantly. "He doesn't know how to restrain himself, doesn't listen to advice, does whatever he wants, is mediocre, arrogant, and reckless. With Professor Snape watching over him, he can't die. If he does die, he deserves it. I have enough problems of my own and I can't control him. "

As long as Elaine still cares about popularity, she cannot ignore the opinions of the audience. But what the live broadcast room is looking forward to is not to follow the original work. They have already seen the movie and the book, so why should they watch it again?

And now that Dumbledore knows more information, wouldn't it be easier to defeat Voldemort?

In addition, Harry's flaws are too obvious. He is immature, playful, self-righteous, and a complete naughty child who cannot communicate. Elaine does not want to be a nanny.

"He is still young. You know the prophecy and you should understand how important Harry is to us."

"I don't understand. I can't understand. Wizards are so superstitious. Why don't you kill the Dark Lord yourself?"

"I once wanted to do this, but Voldemort is too cunning and it is difficult for me to confirm his whereabouts. Moreover, to be precise, prophecy is not about observing the future, but intervening in the future. When a real prophecy is made, it is The fortune of the prophet changed."

"Interfering with the future" Elaine frowned, "In other words, because of that prophecy, no one except Harry can kill the Dark Lord now."

"If you have strong power and luck, you can try to break the prophecy, but I don't have the energy to try. I'm old." Dumbledore sighed, "Besides, of course, Harry would want to take revenge with his own hands. Instead of stopping him, why not Help him──or, I should place my hope on you."

"No, I can't bear this heavy responsibility." Elaine discovered one thing. It seemed that every time she talked to Dumbledore, the old man always wanted to take the opportunity to throw the blame on himself. "Although I hate this body, I I still want to continue living.”

"Then help me a little bit, okay?"

"I will consider."

The old man and the young man talked again and again, from the Sorcerer's Stone to the Chamber of Secrets, from the Chamber of Secrets to the Three Wizards Fighting Competition, to the Deathly Hallows artifact. Elaine even forced Dumbledore to swear that he would not look for the Resurrection Stone. Dumbledore now But you can't die.

Dumbledore admitted that Elaine's story did speak to Voldemort's idea: to find a complete prophecy and then force the students, or Snape tried to assassinate him; but even if he was prophetic, Dumbledore had no better way. response.

Regardless of the prophecy, although it will cause an uproar when it is made public and affect the thoughts and actions of many people, especially Harry, all you need to do is choose the right time. The news at the end of the original work guesses the main meaning of the prophecy, and what should Harry and Voldemort do? What to do.

But having Malfoy and Snape assassinate Dumbledore is very tricky.

Malfoy asked for trouble and ignored it, but Snape's life must be saved. Some people even shouted ridiculous remarks like a demonstration in the live broadcast room. This shows how persistent Harry Potter fans are about the death of the professor. .

The problem is that people are doing things that can lead to lives, and if you don’t kill Dumbledore, you won’t be trusted. If you kill Dumbledore, what happens if Harry dies at the hands of Voldemort? Will Elaine inherit the role?

In the end, I decided to put aside the controversy. It’s okay. I still have two or three years to think about it slowly. Let’s just treat it as homework.

It was already late at night when Elaine left the office. Fortunately, dinner was served in the principal's office, although the sight of Dumbledore eating cockroach skewers gave Elaine a little stomachache.

Standing in front of the stone statue guarding the gate, Elaine was in a daze. The live broadcast room was clamoring about whether to watch the three-headed dog according to the original plot. Now Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Neville should be preparing to go to the trophy room, planning to go to the trophy room with Malfoy, let's have a wonderful duel. Waiting over there is Filch and his cat.

Elaine wanted to meet the four of them, but it was almost twelve o'clock, and Harry and the others had left Gryffindor Tower and started running around in the castle, making it a bit difficult to find them.

It would be convenient to have the Marauder's Map, but even though Elaine established friendship with the twins through Coca-Cola, the two had no intention of giving away the map. They only copied a D version to Elaine.

Even if there are no villain comments, there are even a few secret passages missing. As expected, the D version is full of tricks.

It seems that the twins' affection is not that easy to cultivate, and that's right. Harry didn't get the map until the third year. This was after being best friends with Ron, playing ball with the twins for three years, and rescuing Ginny from the basilisk and Voldemort. situation.

It's even more impossible to ask Lupine for this.

I don’t know how difficult it is to copy the map, but Mr. Werewolf has always been reluctant to talk about the past. If Elaine hadn’t acted like “I know you very well” and promised that those stories would be told to Harry, Lu Ping didn't want to mention the robbery group at all.

James' death and Sirius' betrayal had affected him too much.

However, there is a way to locate Hermione even without the Marauder's Map.

When Slughorn cast the Traceless Telescopic Charm on the two bags, Elaine asked him to do more work and put tracking magic on both bags, so that they could track each other's whereabouts, but Hermione didn't. Knowing about this magic, Elaine "accidentally" forgot to mention it to her.

Of course, if the other party didn't bring the bag, they wouldn't be able to track it, and some places would cause the magic to not work, such as the Room of Requirement, but Hermione should be used to carrying it with her like Elaine, as it's so convenient to store items.

Elaine took out her wand, recalled the method taught by Slughorn, and tapped the wrist guard a few times.

Nothing happened. Well, the effect of the magic suppressing potion is still there.

Someone in the live broadcast room also reminded that Hermione didn't even hold a wand in the original book. Maybe she didn't really bring the bag with her. Hers was not like Elaine's who cast an additional transformation spell.

"Then this is the only way." Elaine sighed. "Nott"

With a crack, the house elf appeared in front of Elaine.

The anchor really calls everything Noteye

Because it’s convenient, he knows magic, and he’s obedient

s.p.e.. protest that this is abuse

"Take me to Hermione, can you track her down?"

"The young master has asked Nott to help Miss Granger with something, so Nott has left a special mark to track Miss Granger's location." The house elf bowed respectfully and saluted, "Nott can go now. Find Miss Granger and ask her to join the young master."

"No need, just take me to her."

"Obey the little master's orders"

Nott led the way, and Elaine followed it leisurely, while admiring the sleeping paintings on the wall - the sleeping postures of some paintings were really unbearable to look at, maybe because of the curfew imposed at Hogwarts.

No one is watching, these portraits are completely letting oneself go. If sleeping is nothing, the appearance of several women sleeping together is acceptable, at least they have a quilt.

The most eye-catching thing is the five muscular men sleeping together hugging each other. Elaine remembers that this is a painting of adventurers singing and celebrating by the campfire. During the day, they played the piano and chatted, and at night they hugged each other and gnawed on each other. The other person’s face is oh my God.

I can't be the only one seeing this kind of thing

So Elaine fixed the live broadcast angle in front of the portrait until she reached the next corner.

The further we walked, the more strange it became. This didn't seem to lead to the trophy room, the Charms classroom, or the Gryffindor Tower. But it was impossible for Nott to resist her orders or get lost. It used to be in Hogwarts helped for a while.

Elaine didn't think much about it until Nott brought her to Professor McGonagall's research room. Damn it, Elaine quickly took out the golden parchment with lyrics written on it that Dumbledore had given her before. Wrote a few words.

After the parchment shimmered slightly, the writing disappeared.

I'm surprised I wasn't caught.

There is no anchor in the original work yet

200 points deducted from Gryffindor

"It disgusts me that there are four Gryffindors sneaking out of bed."

Professor McGonagall's scolding could only be vaguely heard through the door, but the mysterious subtitler was very considerate and typed the content directly, so that everyone did not have to take a listening test.

"I have never heard of such a thing before. You, Miss Hermione Granger, I thought you were a sensible child; and you, Mr. Harry Potter, didn't you think that Gryffindor would be affected?" What kind of punishment? Is it worth your whim?"

"Shut up. I don't want to hear any explanation. And you, Mr. Ron Weasley, I sincerely hope you can distinguish right from wrong, or learn from Percy, or your other outstanding brothers; as for you, Mr. Neville Longbottom ──”

Elaine knocked on the door, but Professor McGonagall still cursed angrily.

"─Your parents will definitely be very disappointed. Poor grades is not a bad thing, but why can't you even follow the rules? Gryffindor will deduct 200 points for your stupid behavior, and everyone will deduct 50 points. Don't think I won't I am very disappointed in you for deducting points from your own college.”

Elaine knocked on the door again, and it was Filch who opened the door. He looked at Elaine strangely, but Elaine ignored him.

"Professor McGonagall, Professor Dumbledore sent me to find you."

"Miss Shafik, you are well." Professor McGonagall was still angry, even speaking to Elaine with a tone of reproach. "If you don't return to the campus hospital or Gryffindor Tower, what will you do to me?"

"Professor Dumbledore hopes you can handle it as appropriate. They sneaked out because they were worried about me. At least the punishment won't be that severe." Elaine said without changing her face.

"Dumbledore knows what's going on here"

"Yes, if you don't believe it, you can ask him. I just chatted with him for a long time, and he shouldn't be asleep yet."

"They ran to the trophy room, which is far from the campus hospital or the principal's office, and they sneaked into the corridor on the fourth floor, which is a forbidden area," Filch said fiercely.

"The first-year students are not familiar with the castle, and because they can't see the road well late at night, and they were frightened by you, they ran around and accidentally broke into the forbidden area. There is nothing we can do about it."

"You're talking nonsense──"

"Okay, Filch," Professor McGonagall said sternly. "No matter what the reason is, you are not allowed to slip out of bed at night. If you make a mistake, you will be punished. Even if the principal helps to plead for mercy, the four of them must receive labor services."

She paused briefly and looked at Harry, Ron, Neville, and Hermione.

"However, it's not that I can't understand the thoughts of worried classmates. Now that Professor Dumbledore has spoken, each person will be deducted 20 points, but you still have to hand in a letter of repentance and two volumes of parchment next week."

This turn of events made four people look relieved at the same time, and Professor McGonagall snorted angrily.

"Now, go back to sleep"

***

On the way back to Gryffindor Tower, both Harry and Ron breathed a sigh of relief. They seemed to think that the deduction of points was nothing. Ron even boasted that as long as he won the Quidditch championship, he could completely make up for it.

Hermione still lowered her head. She seemed to have been scolded by Professor McGonagall just now and cried. Neville was not much better. In contrast, Harry and Ron were really desperate.

"It's such a risk, Elaine, are you feeling better?" As soon as they arrived in the lounge, Ron was excited to talk about the adventure. "I'm telling you, today Malfoy──"

"Shut up. I have something to say to you four. Stand still."

Elaine gave him an expressionless look. It might not be as scary as Professor McGonagall, but Elaine could vaguely feel the flow of magic power, and the system seemed to have done something. At least the four of them, Harry, were frightened.

That’s fine, the system can be helpful sometimes.

"Neville."

Even though Elaine softened her tone, Neville still trembled in fright. The poor child's eyes were red and his face was covered with tears. He didn't even dare to reach out to wipe them away.

"Don't take Professor McGonagall's words to heart. She is just mad. Just like your grandma, they have too high demands on you. They don't think about how old your parents are and how old you are. For an 11-year-old What does the child ask for?”

'I let them down'

"So what, I believe my parents are also very disappointed with my behavior of being close to Muggles. Don't pay attention to what adults say. Everyone has something they are not good at. Your grandma o..ls is not up to standard in Charms. The point is your own thoughts, you also have advantages, you are good at herbal medicine, and you also have courage in your heart. If you can’t even look down on yourself, then you are truly hopeless.”

Elaine gently held his shoulders, whispered encouragement, and poured down bowls of chicken soup. When Neville seemed to feel better and smiled weakly, Elaine sent him to go to bed.

Next came Ron and Harry, these two naughty kids looking around in confusion.

So shameless, anchor, scold them to death

They are just children, so they cannot be let go

Although people should be optimistic, if they can still laugh after being scolded by Professor McGonagall, they should really be hung up and beaten.

Amidst the shouts of the people, Elaine looked at Harry and Ron, and both of them looked wrong.
