This is the first time that Xifa has taken a close look at the dean of his college who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside.
Today, Vice Principal Brandt is wearing a long blue wizard robe, with a beard and neatly styled hair.
Although his gray eyes were not looking directly at him at this time, and the work at hand did not stop, Xifa, who was sitting in a wheelchair on the side, always felt that Vice Principal Brandt was looking at him.
Suddenly, Vice Principal Brandt stopped what he was doing. He sat up straight, frowning, with a serious expression and cold eyes. He seemed to be suppressing a ball of anger.
Xifa was shocked. He thought it was Vice Principal Brandt who was dissatisfied with his performance.
However, Vice Principal Brandt said nothing. After a while, he sighed and raised his hand to rub his forehead. Then, the old man's body, which had just been sitting upright due to the mood swings, arched slightly again.
Vice Principal Brandt organized the pen and paper documents in front of him and put them aside in different locations.
Only then did he raise his head.
This is naturally the first time that Vice Principal Brandt has looked at Xifa since he entered the office today.
"I was just on a business trip to discuss how to deal with the upcoming Wizarding War, but something like this happened again in the school."
Vice Principal Brandt continued speaking dryly with a tone in which his attitude and emotion could not be heard.
"As to why two little wizards who were imprisoned for work in the hunting grounds and a little witch who was supposed to be in the castle appeared in the Forbidden Forest and went to the centaur tribe. I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation."

After saying that, Vice Principal Brandt stared at Xifa without blinking.
If I hadn't been a student at Hogwarts, I'm afraid he would have cast a Legilimency spell on me...
Xifa couldn't help but feel guilty, and spoke in a lower voice than usual.
"Professor, this is just an accident..."
Before Xifa could finish what he said, Vice Principal Brandt interrupted Xifa.
His eyes looked directly at Xifa, but there was a trace of impatience in them, still dry and seemingly without energy.
"Of course I know that you were attacked by dark wizards by accident, and I also know that you come from a Muggle family, which Albus himself admitted. Otherwise, I would definitely suspect that you were sent by another country to destroy the stable life of Hogwarts.
chess piece."
"I'm too lazy to ask Elise. She will only take all the responsibilities on herself. To be honest, there is really nothing I can do about her. I think you will tell me her detailed experience."
Xifa suddenly realized that it was normal for a high-ranking vice-principal to have his own enemies, and it was also normal for him to have no way to deal with his only granddaughter - probably...
So, he summarized some of the things Luna and Elise told him and his own experience, and explained the ins and outs of this incident to Vice Principal Brandt in detail.
However, Xifa omitted some information, especially that the initial conflict with Charles was due to the cutting of a custom-made asparagus plant in the auction house of the Pig Head Bar.
Of course, Vice Principal Brandt also knew that there was an invisible ghost controlling the students and holding back Dumbledore.
If Professor Slughorn, Dean of Slytherin, hadn't rushed back, Dumbledore wouldn't have been able to deal with the commotion in the castle.
What a coincidence. The enemy happened to choose this time. They, the professors, had to deal with the aftermath of Hogsmeade and discuss how to deal with the Wizarding War.
It all seems like the ambush on his granddaughter was indeed an accident.
Because Xifa said it, Elise suddenly agreed to rescue the unicorn, and the unicorn leader also admitted it.
But Ogg needs to investigate carefully, even if the unicorn will not collude with the dark wizard...
The memory of the little wizards in the Great Hall that day does not exist. They thought they were the same as usual.
Dumbledore went to the alchemist Nicolas Flamel to find a way to lift the curse. A week has passed, and now everything inside the castle can be said to have been solved.
At present, the biggest trouble is actually a letter sent to him by the Ministry of Magic of the International Union, which accuses Dumbledore of attacking and killing three wizards from other countries, thus trying to provoke a wizarding war.
Vice Principal Brandt just suppressed his anger. He felt that this wording was simply making people laugh out loud.
We at Hogwarts have not filed a lawsuit against three foreign wizards who illegally came to the British wizarding community and caused huge threats and harm to the physical and mental safety of Hogwarts students!
"I understand, how is Luna? Her grandfather asked me to take more care of her. I didn't expect her..."
"She is fine now and is waiting for me outside the door."
"Well, there's nothing else to do. Take your wand and study in the castle with peace of mind."
Vice Principal Brandt took out Xifa's wand from the drawer and placed it on the table.
Xifa understood the subtext of Vice Principal Brandt’s intention to drive people away.
He reached out and picked up the wand, bowed, and turned the wheelchair around.
‘walk’ out of the vice-principal’s office.
Only then did Xifa feel how free the atmosphere outside was.
Sure enough, if you can't hold a high position, you will never have that kind of overwhelming momentum.
"My grandfather didn't give you any trouble, did he?"
Before the office door was closed, Elise asked anxiously.
Xifa felt warm in his heart, of course he couldn't tear down Brandt.
"Of course not, let's go."
After the words fell, Luna reached out and closed the office door.
In the office, Vice Principal Brandt looked at Luna with a dumbfounded look.
When the door closed, Vice Principal Brandt's face was stern, and then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"That's not necessary, Elise."
Luna and Elise pushed Xifa down the aisle, and Xifa whispered to her.
"I'm not speaking for you. You know, that person made me and Luna wait outside the door for a long time." Elise was so angry that she became a dumpling.
"Okay, okay, Elise, calm down, where should we go next?" Luna smiled and hit Elise, and spoke to stop Elise, while also giving Elise a step to get down.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Xifa also smiled, relieving the pressure, and soon the three of them came to the end of the stairs.
The Charms office is on the fourth floor, and Dumbledore's Transfiguration office is on the second floor.
After thinking about it, I need to go down the stairs when I wait for others to go back to the dormitory.
Xifa proposed to drop by Dumbledore's office, and Luna and Elise nodded in agreement.
Elise is better at magic spells than Luna, and the Silent Beast allows her to have almost unlimited magic power under normal conditions.
Naturally, she cast the floating spell and carried Xifa down the stairs.
I met a group of Gryffindors fighting on the stairs.
Seeing the appearance of the three of them, they all stopped playing together. They greeted the three of them with smiles and asked enthusiastically if they needed help.
The three Westerners also responded to them in a friendly manner, waving their hands and saying no with a smile.
Watching this group of people disappearing at the end of the stairs above, noisily again.
Only then did Xifa retract his gaze.
"Is there any problem?" Luna asked softly.
"No, there is. It's just because there's no problem that there's a problem... Let's go to Professor Dumbledore first."
Xifa was silent for a moment and replied, "I want to know what happened in the castle after I left."
The three of them continued walking, and between the stairs on the third and second floors, Xifa met a new student who impressed him deeply - Tom Riddle.
What surprised him even more was that Tom actually took the initiative to say hello to him.
"Xifa, how come you look so weak? Do you still need a woman to help you move?"
It was so annoying as soon as she opened her mouth. Elise frowned and wanted to refute, but Luna pulled her hand and stopped her from saying anything.
"Believe in Xifa!" This was Luna's mouth, and Elise nodded slightly.
"What? I can understand that you are envious of me for having a back that I can completely rely on?"
Xifa raised an eyebrow and changed into a more comfortable position in the wheelchair. Since they were coming down the stairs, Xifa seemed to be looking down at Tom.
"Hmph! Your own strength is the foundation, so you just say you are great. Can you be stronger than me now?"
Oh? Are you kidding me? Xifa finds it interesting. Is Tom concerned about his declining strength, feeling empty without an opponent, or is he guessing that he is practicing forbidden arts in order to master stronger power?
"You care where I have done it? Have you been to the Forbidden Forest?" The seemingly innocuous words made Tom feel nervous.
"I have never been to the Forbidden Forest! Unlike you, I am said to have violated school rules twice."
After saying that, Tom left in a hurry.
"What's wrong with him?" Elise was a little confused and said "well", why did he leave so suddenly?
"We'll talk about it when we get back. There are so many people here!" When Xifa's eyes glanced at the portraits hanging on both sides of the stairs, they closed their eyes separately and pretended to sleep, as if they were not watching the fun just now.
However, it has to be said that Tom's sudden appearance and messing around caused an idea to arise in Xifa's mind and he threw it away.
