Generally speaking, it depends on the severity of the professor and the attitude of the dean of the college on this matter.
Therefore, when Snape brought the three overslept little witches to Professor McGonagall's office, Elena felt as if Hermione's soul had been taken away from her - and according to the class schedule,
At this time, she and Luna Lovegood also belonged to Gryffindor House.
What's worse is that it seems that the news has been received in advance that Professor Dumbledore is also in Professor McGonagall's office.
"Miss Granger, Miss Kaslana... I'm very disappointed with you two. There are quite a few people who are late at Hogwarts, but absenteeism is really rare. It's a pity that you two... well,
All three of them may need to be detained."
Dumbledore spoke uncharacteristically and took the initiative, looking deeply at Elena with his blue eyes.
Elena frowned, with a somewhat unwilling expression on her face.
"Does it have to be like this? I think..."
"I hope you can understand that this is your responsibility for the future."
The penalty decision of confinement was quickly determined.
Two days in total, which happens to be the next two days of the weekend.
Perhaps after learning the lesson from Halloween, at the suggestion of Professor Dumbledore, the confinement location was chosen in the History of Magic classroom on the fourth floor of the castle, and the punishment was - being locked in a small black room and coding!
Since the release of "The New Quibbler", the wizarding world and the Hogwarts school have paid more attention to this publication almost every week, and the "Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue" section has been even more widely
s concern.
After all, in this era of lack of material and spiritual entertainment activities, it is difficult to find similar pure food sections in the non-magical world, let alone the magical world. After a large number of letters, Dumbledore decided to turn this section into
Split off the content of the original magazine and recreate a publication that belongs entirely to Hogwarts.
However, in this case, the content of the original few issues alone is definitely not enough to form a normal publication.
Even though "Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue" was originally positioned as a monthly magazine, there was still a huge gap in the text content and picture materials. Therefore, Dumbledore simply took advantage of this tight opportunity to publish Elena's novel.
The three of them were locked up in the History of Magic classroom, allowing them to concentrate on completing the manuscript creation work for the new issue.
As for the specific punishment measures, they were based on the idea that Elena had mentioned casually.
Each day's lockdown begins before lunch and lasts until the last half hour before curfew in the evening.
The Hogwarts kitchen will cook a batch of delicious dishes according to Elena's menu and place them on the table at the front of the classroom. Whenever the girls complete a certain task, such as writing a 10,000-word manuscript
, you can eat a plate of food.
And if they haven't finished writing, they will also be provided with the most basic coarse grain bread and fresh water to ensure that they don't starve to death.
All in all, during these two days, the three girls spent almost all their time in that empty classroom, except for going back to the dormitory to sleep every night and attending to their daily physiological needs.
…
Outside the History of Magic classroom.
Grindelwald glanced at the white-haired dumplings in the classroom who were gnashing their teeth, and turned his head worriedly.
"Albus, are you... really not afraid of the little guy's revenge afterwards?"
"If she really found it unacceptable, then she wouldn't have agreed."
Dumbledore shook his head and said calmly.
"Until the matter in Quirinas is completely settled, I think it is the most appropriate decision to temporarily protect her - haven't we discussed this before? I think she should also know it.
."
"So, what are you going to do?"
"St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies has agreed to provide Professor Quirrell with a special independent ward."
After Dumbledore pondered for a few seconds, he looked at it and said in a deep voice.
"Probably before Christmas, he will be receiving treatment in the hospital until he fully recovers from his injuries before considering whether to return to school and continue teaching. The only problem is..."
"I understand. I will help you keep an eye on him until he is transferred to the hospital tomorrow."
"There is also something about the Defense Against the Dark Arts course. After all, there are so many students in the school, so you should take some time to prepare a little. If nothing else, your substitute teaching time this time will be much longer than the previous one."
"Don't worry, Albus, I'm no worse than you in terms of knowledge on how to defend against dark magic."
The soul is a very strange existence, and even wizards have not gone very far in their understanding of this aspect.
There is no doubt that Voldemort has temporarily left Professor Quirrell's body. At least after inspections by several professors, there are no flaws - but as a master of spells, Grindelwald can vaguely sense that he is entangled in Qi Luo.
The curse in Luo's soul has not dissipated. In other words, Voldemort has not completely given up on this rare Jinchuuriki.
But on the other hand, after losing the power of Voldemort, it was obviously difficult for the young wizard to withstand such a serious injury based on his strength alone. This was one of the main reasons why he had to be transferred to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries for treatment.
one.
Under such circumstances, Elena, who was the trigger of the entire incident, naturally had to find a way to temporarily isolate herself.
Whether it is Voldemort/Quirrell who wants revenge, or Elena is planning to eliminate the root cause without doing anything else, for Albus Dumbledore, this is something that he is very unwilling to see.
Maybe the latter will be slightly better...
However, considering that Quirinus Quirrell's identity does not have any flaws at this time, if Elena makes any irrational stress reaction in public, she will not be able to continue in Hogwart even with Dumbledore's explanation.
Ci is studying.
Elena also knew this in her heart.
However, understanding is understanding, and there will definitely be a lot of things that should be written down in a small book.
…
The next two days were uneventful, without incident.
"Phew, it's finally over."
Elena moved her aching wrist and hugged Hermione next to her.
In front of the three people, a stack of parchment was now neatly stacked.
If combined with reasonable typesetting and the filling of picture materials provided by Luna, it will be enough to print the manuscript of "A Bite of Hogwarts" for more than two months, and even some spare manuscripts can be saved.
This means that from now until Christmas, they no longer have to rack their brains to think about the manuscript every day.
"Fortunately, Hermione is here, otherwise I wouldn't be able to finish writing so much content in two days."
"I will never miss school again, and you, Elena! Don't come to my bed after lights out!"
Hermione also flicked her wrist, rolled her eyes at Elena angrily, and showed a satisfied smile on her face.
"but……"
"I didn't expect that in two days, we could actually write close to 100,000 words. This confinement can be regarded as some gains. At least any magic academic reports we encounter in the future will not be so difficult to write."
"Well, go back and rest early and take a shower~ Tomorrow is another full day of classes, and I don't want to be fined and detained again."
The three of them walked out of the History of Magic classroom talking and laughing, and walked towards the dormitory.
On the other hand, St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Injuries also admitted a special patient.
Along with the patient's admission, five elderly wizards in their 60s and 70s were also admitted to the five adjacent wards at the same time. Each of them was in high spirits, but they insisted that they were under some kind of extremely terrible curse.
Must rest in the hospital.
A hospital is not a hotel, you can't just stay there whenever you want!
The director of St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries originally wanted to scold these old wizards who were pretending to be sick...
but……
They gave too many Galleons...
Moreover, they also have a letter of introduction from Professor Dumbledore, hoping that the hospital will cooperate as much as possible... Well, this is the main thing.
