Chapter 201 Dumbledore: Now it's time to talk about compensation
A thunder resounded through Hogwarts Castle, echoing in the empty corridors, and even the little wizards in the lounge were aware of it.
"What happened, Fred?"
"Did you hear that too, George?"
The twins wiped the dust off their faces and looked at each other. The two of them had just been playing crackle cards. This is a very popular game among the students at Hogwarts.
Just as the game between the two reached a critical moment, there was a faint sound of thunder from below the castle, which made George's hand shake, and the entire deck of cards exploded in front of their eyes. The explosion left the two of them disgraced.
Fred put away the remains of the cards with some regret. Just now their castle was missing the last two cards.
"Can you - please - not - play this in the lounge!!!" Percy yelled angrily at Fred and George.
Percy is about to graduate, and this year is his last year at Hogwarts. Currently, he is preparing for the N.E.W.T. exam and is under great psychological pressure because he wants to work in the Ministry of Magic.
It is actually not difficult for people in the Weasley family to want to work in the Ministry of Magic. As a pure-blood family with a long history, it is very easy to get a job in the Ministry of Magic - even if it is just to make up the numbers, the Ministry of Magic also
A Weasley will be arranged to work in the Ministry.
But it is difficult for the Weasley family to want to go to a good department. They need to work harder than other wizards. The reason is also very simple. The Weasley family has been labeled as "pure-blood traitors".
Deliberate marginalization.
And Percy happened to want to work in a core department of the Ministry of Magic. He was not willing to spend the rest of his life in a marginal office like his father. He wanted to work in a core department such as the Legal Enforcement Department of the Ministry of Magic or the Office of the Minister of Magic. Finally, he wanted to work in a core department of the Ministry of Magic.
, you should also go to a department where you can work like the Department of International Magical Cooperation.
This requires that his grades are very good, preferably "excellent" in all subjects. Every additional "good" is a hindrance to himself.
As a result, Percy's mood became unstable. Sometimes just a small thing would trigger his anger. For example, his resentful brother was playing crackling exploding cards in the common room. The explosion just now scared Percy.
Xi made a slash in his textbook.
Looking at this slash, Percy could be said to be "angry from his heart, and evil from his courage". The more he looked at it, the angrier he became, and finally he yelled at his brothers.
Percy regretted it after shouting, but there was nothing he could do. He was not very embarrassed to apologize to his brothers again, so he could only lower his head and pretend to be studying.
After being scolded by their brother, Fred and George wanted to talk back as before, but seeing their brother reviewing, they closed their mouths in unison, packed their things obediently, and slipped out of the lounge.
But the two people's cleverness ended here. After staying away from Percy's sight, the two of them quietly slipped out of the lounge - they were a little curious about the noise just now. Although the Marauder's Map was no longer with them, they
Still decided to find out.
Filch is now physically paralyzed.
The bolt of lightning struck just a few meters in front of him, creating a big hole in the classroom floor. Filch felt that the hair all over his body stood on end, and he felt a tingling sensation from head to toe.
It looked like hundreds of little ants were crawling on his body. The same thing happened to Mrs. Norris at his feet. The hair all over her body exploded, and the entire cat doubled in size.
"The power is acceptable." Tom looked at the big hole in the floor and said very modestly.
After this lightning strike, the clouds and rain that Tom had just summoned also dispersed, leaving only the wet floor and humid air to prove their existence.
Hermione, Harry, and Lupine walked out of the shelter with complicated expressions, and for a moment they didn't know what to say.
"What's the matter?" Tom noticed the uninvited guest at the door. In fact, he saw this guy when Filch opened the door. If he hadn't tried his best to change the location of the lightning strike, Filch would have been there by now.
He's an acquaintance of the big guy.
"Uh... I just heard a noise... It's already curfew..." Filch calmed down and waited for the numbness on his tongue to subside before he opened his mouth to answer. However, the more he spoke, the less confident he was.
It's also very simple, he saw Professor Luping.
Since these three little wizards were hanging out with the professor, they definitely didn't sneak out. There was no way he could have put them in a solitary room.
Filch was a little disappointed.
"It's my problem, I made up the classes too late." Lupine walked up to Filch and explained to Harry and the three of them very gently.
"Okay, okay," Filch said repeatedly, and backed out of the History of Magic classroom, but he did not walk away, but looked at the big hole in the floor.
Tom's lightning cracked the floor into pieces, and it was so powerful that it even cracked the ceiling downstairs.
"I will find a way to deal with it..." Lupine's face twitched, trying to get the matter out of the way first. He knew that this floor was not so easy to repair. Hogwarts Castle is protected by magic, and he wanted to clear it up.
It is difficult to cause damage, and correspondingly difficult to repair it.
At this time, footsteps sounded again in the corridor, and several deans rushed here. Behind the deans, Dumbledore also appeared.
"Remus, what happened?" Professor McGonagall asked Lupine after glaring at Harry.
After Lupine finished telling them the ins and outs of the matter, several people looked at Tom in particularly strange ways.
"Remus, are you telling the truth? The first time Yodel used the weather spell, he caused a thunderbolt -" Professor Flitwick asked excitedly. The weather spell is only learned by senior students.
The spell is extremely difficult. Wizards who are proficient in weather spells are very popular in the Ministry of Magic - because most employees of the Ministry of Magic do not understand the principles of weather spells.
However, the offices of the Ministry of Magic are differentiated by weather. If there is draft in the office, it may rain all day, making it impossible for you to carry out your work. At this time, you need a wizard who is proficient in weather spells to help you control the weather.
Adjust to sunny weather.
"It's absolutely true, of course, look at the water stains on the ground." Lu Ping pointed to the remaining puddles on the ground, which was evidence that it had just rained.
"Awesome!" Flitwick praised.
With Professor Lupin's proof, Tom could of course pass safely. However, after the professors dispersed, Dumbledore stopped Tom who was about to leave.
"Yordle, now it's time to discuss the issue of compensation."

Last time I talked about cooking bags, today we will continue to talk about cooking bags.
By the way, our community has finally set up a vegetable buying group and a meat buying group. The vegetables are really expensive, 58 yuan for 7 pounds... Although it is understandable due to special reasons, I still feel very sad. It is easy for people with connections to make money.
