"You said, that child won't let us eat the birthday cake, right?"
"How is it possible? And based on my understanding of Elena, this girl is very clear about grudges. As long as you are good to her, she will definitely compensate you twice as much..."
Hogwarts Castle, Headmaster's Office.
Dumbledore and Grindelwald, who had just returned from Diagon Alley, walked down the stairs talking and laughing. Grindelwald carefully patted the long package in his hand and said with a proud look on his face.
"Anyway, what I'm giving you is a latest model flying broomstick, so it'll be fine. If Elena doesn't allow you to eat sweets, I'll give you a bite of the cake."
"Cake or anything else, actually it doesn't matter. I just hope she can stay at peace like this..."
Dumbledore shook his head with a wry smile and glanced at the cake box in his hand.
Ever since he recruited this little demon king into Hogwarts, he had felt that he was really old more than once. If he were younger, no matter how big things happened, at least his heart would not feel so uncomfortable.
"Professor Dumbledore! You are finally back! Come and comment, you are simply too deceptive!"
At this moment, a quick and slightly irritable voice came from the principal's desk downstairs - it was Professor Pomona Sprout, the dean of Hufflepuff House.
Albus Dumbledore's heart suddenly thumped, and the relaxed smile on his face instantly disappeared.
Because in Dumbledore's impression, this gentle witch had never made such an emotional voice, and judging from the sounds coming from the principal's office below, it seemed that Professor Sprout was not the only one.
"Professor Dumbledore, a relatively complex collective violation occurred this afternoon."
"Let me tell you first, I don't think the kids from our academy are the same."
"No matter what, Gryffindor House, which provoked the first provocation, must be dealt with severely."
Following Professor Sprout's reminder, the three deans of the college, Minerva McGonagall, Severus Snape, and Filius Flitwick, also turned their heads and looked at Dumbledore.
Another layer of ominous shadow cast over Li Duo's heart.
what happened?!
He had only left Hogwarts for less than half a day, so why did something big happen again? My dear Miss Elena Kaslana, couldn’t she just calm down for a while? And this time, four people were involved at the same time.
In any case, the college cannot let him off as lightly as before. Maybe he needs to consider expulsion or suspension of study?
Dumbledore walked down the stairs and looked at the four particularly ugly-looking deans of the college in the office below. Countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, and his face gradually turned solemn and serious - no matter what Elena's talent is, if
If she doesn't have the awareness to revere and abide by the rules, her future influence on the magical world will only be negative rather than positive.
Although no one has ever had the courage to question Albus Dumbledore, there is no doubt that in the history of modern European magic, the emergence of the two Dark Lords is directly or indirectly related to Dumbledore.
Therefore, for Dumbledore, he would rather not cultivate the next patron saint of the wizarding world, and he definitely does not want to create a terrifying third-generation Dark Lord for future wizards due to his own reasons.
"We will deal with these issues bit by bit later. First -"
Thinking of this, Dumbledore's blue eyes flashed with determination and he said in a deep voice.
"Elena, the one who caused these things? Kaslana, where is she now?!"
"Elena?"
The professors looked at each other with confusion in their eyes, and they all shook their heads.
Facing Albus Dumbledore's question, most of the deans fell into a state of confusion. They were already in such a state of chaos. Who would care where a first-year student was this afternoon.
"Well...if nothing else happens, it should still be with Hagrid."
Snape thought for a moment, glanced at the serious-looking Headmaster of Hogwarts, and said softly.
"Anyway, she won't be reporting in the Potions classroom this afternoon, Professor Dumbledore, as you know."
"I don't understand, what does this have to do with Elena from our college?"
Pomona Sprout frowned heavily and looked at Professor Dumbledore with dissatisfaction, her tone was particularly rude.
"Professor Dumbledore, as a person who has almost witnessed the entire process, I can be very sure that at least this matter has absolutely nothing to do with Miss Kaslana - even most of the students in Hufflepuff may have just
Know."
Huh? So it turns out that this time it has nothing to do with Elena?
After hearing the words of Professor Sprout and Professor Snape, Dumbledore's tense mood relaxed slightly.
Since Elena was not involved, it was probably some regular emergencies on the Hogwarts campus. No matter what the situation was, at least most of them had traces to follow and they were under control.
Repeating events in .
"Um...well, um...Elena's birthday is today, and this is the cake I bought for her."
Dumbledore coughed slightly in embarrassment, raised the cake box in his hand, and explained quickly.
"After all, you all know that the kid has put a lot of thought and effort into improving the catering for teachers and students in the school these days. As the principal of Hogwarts, I think I still have to express my gratitude."
As he spoke, Dumbledore put down the cake box in his hand very naturally, calmed down, looked at the deans in the office with a smile, and asked calmly and calmly.
"So, what happened that caused everyone to be so noisy?"
"To put it simply, students from Gryffindor, Slytherin, and Ravenclaw got into a fight on the field outside Hogwarts Castle before the second period this afternoon."
Professor McGonagall pushed up her glasses and said seriously, the expression on her face was particularly ugly.
Counting the number of times, this is already the second large-scale student conflict this week, and judging from the current situation, it seems that Gryffindor House takes the initiative to provoke trouble every time, which can't help but make this Hogwart
Vice Principal Ci was even more angry.
"Why are they fighting again?! And there are three colleges?!"
Dumbledore's eyes narrowed, and the mood he had just relaxed suddenly rose again, and he asked solemnly.
"How is the situation now? How injured are the students? Where is Madam Pomfrey?"
"Humph, no one was injured. These students just acted together and there was no need to go to the infirmary."
Professor Sprout couldn't help but snorted coldly, and the cold light in his eyes became even colder.
"Huh, that's good..."
Dumbledore breathed a sigh of relief. As long as no students were injured, it wouldn't be a big problem.
As the principal of Hogwarts, what he fears most is undoubtedly the serious problem of student injury or even death. As long as everyone is still alive and well, there is always room for maneuver and processing no matter what...
"But! These bandits robbed the entire Hufflepuff vegetable garden!"
Before the smile on Dumbledore's face could rise, Professor Sprout stamped his feet angrily and said in a cold voice through gritted teeth. His whole person seemed to be enveloped in a layer of visible anger.
"What smart children are they?! They actually deceived me, acted in front of me, and then took advantage of the chaos to divide the fruits of the hard work of the Hufflepuff students! Even
The ground of the vegetable garden was not spared, not to mention leaving some roots, even the soil was scraped away several feet!!!"
"Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape, Professor Flitwick... I don't care what role each of your students in the house plays in this, but one thing I have made very clear - all the students from the Hufflepuff garden
All the vegetables that have been taken away must be returned, and there is no room for negotiation.”
From the beginning, Professor Sprout's goals were clear.
There must be no tolerance or condonation for this vicious banditry.
If Hogwarts School chooses the so-called "law does not blame everyone" approach to this matter because of the large number of people in the three houses, it will extremely seriously affect the growth direction of the students in the entire school.
The hidden devils in children's hearts may be released.
Professor Sprout's tone was particularly fierce, and the wand in his hand was already in his hand unknowingly.
Although she was short and chubby, she was only a little taller than Professor Flitwick, but from the momentum point of view, she was like a giant filling the whole room, exuding a sharp edge that was hard to look at - at all.
There is no doubt that once an honest person is really angry, he will be one of the most terrifying existences in the world.
In fact, the deans of the other three colleges no longer have many questions about Professor Sprout's appeal.
Returning all looted items and imposing extremely severe punishments are things that are unanimously recognized by the deans of every college. However, the matter is of great importance. They also hope to investigate more clearly and make the most appropriate and appropriate result.
.
After all, every decision they make is likely to affect a student, and even the future life trajectory and growth path of this group of students, so they have to be extra cautious and serious.
Therefore, the method of punishment is particularly important - neither too harsh nor too easy.
"Ahem, I understand. This is indeed a matter that must be seriously discussed and investigated."
After listening to the discussion among the deans for a while, Dumbledore quickly outlined the general process of the entire incident in his mind, nodded thoughtfully, and whispered without panic or dissatisfaction.
"However, I agree with part of Professor Sprout's point of view. Anyway, first of all, tonight we need to ensure that the children of Hufflepuff House will not be affected in any way - we must ensure this. As for the subsequent
Punishment can be investigated and discussed later."
Children who have made no mistakes should not suffer undue losses and suffering due to the malice and greed of others. This is a point that Dumbledore particularly recognizes, so between safeguarding his rights and punishing his mistakes, he first chooses the former.
"Pomona, don't worry, the Hufflepuff children will definitely..."
Bang!
At this moment, the door to the principal's office was suddenly pushed open.
All the wizards in the principal's office subconsciously stopped their clamps and turned their heads to look behind them.
I saw Hagrid standing at the door, panting, with anger and remorse mixed on his face. Next to him stood several little witches with equally ugly faces...Hermione, Hannah, Luna, and of course Dumbledore.
Elena Kaslana, whom Lido asked before.
"Professor Dumbledore... huh? Professor Sprout is here too?! Something bad is going to happen, everyone! Hutch, those kids from Hufflepuff House, while Elena and I are not paying attention, directly
The staff garden at Hogwarts was served in one pot—"
Watching the hybrid giant suddenly burst into the principal's office, and hearing the words spoken by the giant.
The expression on Albus Dumbledore's face froze for an instant. He glanced blankly at Professor Sprout, who was also stunned, and the white-haired dumpling with an aggrieved face. Suddenly, he felt a familiar chest tightness for no reason.
