The dinner was over, Professors Grindelwald and Durmstrang had left the auditorium, and other students were also walking towards the door one after another.
It's just that they walked slowly, and as they moved forward, they couldn't help but look back. They were not looking at anyone else, but at their new young transfiguration professor who was appointed today.
Jon didn't get up. He was holding his face with one hand, fiddling with the silver fork in his hand, as if he was struggling with something.
The students at Hogwarts have not left either. They are learning from Diane what exactly Grindelwald just announced.
"G-Professor Green..."
Diane did not explain anything to the others, but carefully addressed the boy who was three years younger than her.
Even if some people doubt Jon's age, no one dares to go against Grindelwald's decision.
As long as the principal of this school is willing, even if he lets a house elf be the transfiguration professor, all the students will have to respect that house elf.
Hearing what this girl who was half a head taller than himself called him, Jon felt uncomfortable, and he twisted his face.
"Just call me Jon, no need to call me Professor Green."
Diane shook her head firmly.
"This is a school rule. Students cannot call professors by their first names, otherwise they will be fined and put in solitary confinement."
Jon was at his wits end, he was completely ruined.
"Then call it whatever you want."
At this time, the students at Hogwarts learned from Hermione how Jon changed from Captain Green to Professor Green.
"cool!"
George patted Jon's shoulder hard, and he praised loudly.
"Professor Green! That's so cool Jon! You must be the youngest wizard school professor in the history of the wizarding world!"
Fred and Li were also very excited, as if they were the ones to become professors, they danced and pretended to be doormen and shouted.
"Standing before you is! The great student leader! The heroic captain of the Hogwarts! Durmstrang's youngest professor! His Majesty Jon Green!"
Gabrielle also cheered in mid-air, fearing that the world would not be in chaos.
"Your Majesty Jon Green! Your Majesty Jon Green!"
The other Hogwarts students, Neville, Ron, Justin, Lavender, Hanton, etc., all looked proud. After all, Hogwarts students are in Durham.
Strong became a professor, which is indeed something to be proud of.
Jon looked at them helplessly.
"What are you so happy about? Do you really want me to leave Hogwarts and join Durmstrang?"
His words immediately calmed everyone down, and Neville looked at Jon nervously.
"What does leaving Hogwarts mean?"
Jon said weakly.
"That's what it means literally, don't you see? The headmaster wants me to be a professor at Durmstrang, so I don't have to go back to Hogwarts to go to school. If I agree, I will be a member of this school.
.”
Diane on the side corrected her seriously.
"You are already our professor now, Professor Green. Now that the principal has said so, this is something that cannot be changed."
The students at Hogwarts couldn't be happier now.
Their originally excited faces now fell together with Jon's.
"That won't work! Jon is a student of Hogwarts, and you have no right to take him away without Professor Dumbledore's consent!"
Fred said angrily.
Diane spread her hands and said.
"This is not what I say or what you say. It still depends on what the principal wants. Moreover, the principal also said that he will inform Dumbledore."
Jon finally threw the silver fork back to the long table. The fork disappeared as soon as it touched the long table. There must have been a house elf in the kitchen watching him as he returned the fork.
"Don't get excited yet." He comforted Fred and the others, and then looked at Diane, "Can you help me lead the way to the principal's office?"
Diane certainly had no objection to his request.
The students' accommodation in Hogwarts has been arranged before the dinner begins. Now there is a dedicated Durmstrang prefect to take them there, so Jon does not need to make any arrangements for other people and just follow Diane.
Let's walk together towards the principal's office.
On the way, Diane couldn't help but look at this boy who was obviously three years younger than her. Before she was halfway there, she couldn't help but ask
"Why did Mr. Principal invite you to be our professor?"
"I have to ask you Mr. Principal himself." Jon did not hide his attitude, "To be honest, many of you must have doubts about me being a professor. I actually don't want to, but you should be able to see it.
Come out, I can't express my opinion on this matter at all."
Diane nodded first, then quickly shook her head.
"As long as it is an order from Mr. Principal, no student in the school will question it."
"Daring to question with your mouth and not questioning in your heart are two different things."
As they were talking, they had already arrived at a door on the fourth floor of the castle, and Diane and Jon stopped here.
"I can only bring you here. There will be a curfew in the castle soon. Students are not allowed to go out during this time. I have to go back before then."
"Thank you very much for your help."
Jon thanked her for her help, and then watched the girl trot away from the corridor.
He stood alone in front of the door. Just when he took a deep breath and was about to knock on the door, the door that was originally closed suddenly opened by itself.
Jon hesitated for a second, and then he reached out and pushed the door completely open.
This is a large office. The entire room is cylindrical. The walls are surrounded by towering bookshelves. The top of the bookshelves reaches the ceiling of more than five meters high. The bookshelves are even more densely packed with books.
Books give people a complete sense of oppression.
The room was not bright. A whitish green light that was very familiar to Jon filled everything. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the bird with golden and red feathers standing on the desk.
Fox!
Fox also saw Jon. It spread its wings and glided down to Jon's shoulder.
Then a more familiar voice sounded from the direction of the fireplace.
"I asked you to protect my students, Gellert, protection. You don't have any other weird understanding of this word, right?"
Jon looked towards the fireplace. The face formed by the green fire was none other than Dumbledore!
His voice was very calm, but in these calm words, anyone could hear the meaning of calling for punishment.
