Chapter 827 Welcome to Hogwarts 2.0 (Part 2)

Due to the "Public Trial of Peter Pettigrew", both the teachers and students in the school and the officials of the Ministry of Magic were no strangers to this wizard hero who had finally vindicated his innocence and restored his reputation.

And it is no secret that Sirius Black joined the Hogwarts staff group.

As early as at the Hogwarts opening banquet a few days ago, Professor Dumbledore introduced Professor Black to the entire school.

In the subsequent Transfiguration class, Sirius Black also appeared in the classroom with Professor McGonagall, and as a teaching assistant, assisted everyone in mastering the complex transformation magic. Even in part of the course content, Sirius Black was

He stood directly on the podium and gave a trial lecture on the Transfiguration class under the observation of Professor McGonagall.

Frankly speaking, at the beginning, Minerva McGonagall was still a little worried.

After all, he has been a well-known problem student in the school since he was in school. Compared to Sirius Black and James Potter, two once-in-a-century demon kings, the Weasley twins can be considered good children.

.

However, after several trial lectures, Professor McGonagall's perception of Black quickly changed.

Even with Professor McGonagall's critical eye, one has to admit that this former problem student did have a pretty good talent in the art of transfiguration. The nearly ten years in Azkaban prison before that had smoothed his unruliness.

The steady and serious attitude that Sirius Black now displays in class has fully qualified him to be a qualified professor.

Therefore, when Hogwarts started this round of job expansion, Sirius Black naturally took advantage of the situation and became a full-time employee.

It's just...Sirius Black, the caretaker of Hogwarts Castle?

Hearing this, Minerva McGonagall, who was sitting on the faculty seat, was suddenly startled. Her hands that were about to applaud stopped, and she turned her head to look at Sirius, who was sitting on the other side of the table, with a half-smile.

Weird look.

If she remembered correctly, Sirius Black was still the record holder for the number of disciplinary offenses committed at Hogwarts.

Compared to James Potter, who restrained himself a little after falling in love, this member of the Black family has been the most hated and troubled number one demon king in Hogwarts Castle ever since he appeared in Hogwarts Castle.

"Well, yes, I must emphasize that the disciplinary violations at Hogwarts over the past year have been quite serious."

Dumbledore cleared his throat and glanced sternly at the students in the auditorium.

"Mrs. Pomfrey and Mr. Argus have reported this issue to me more than once. I don't want to continue to see people pointing wands at their classmates in the next year. Therefore, in the original castle

On the basis of administrators, we specially invited Professor Black to ensure that we can cover every corner of the school as much as possible."

Class division in mixed colleges is not without its drawbacks. In a short period of time, it may even cause further conflicts.

It's just that from a long-term perspective, Hogwarts' original house barriers will gradually be broken down. As the exchanges between students in the four houses become more frequent, the current volume of wizard students is definitely

Something that does more good than harm.

As for possible disputes during the transition period, Dumbledore chose to accept Elena's suggestion and let the dragon become a hero.

With Gellert Grindelwald, Sirius Black, and the white-haired dumpling hiding behind the scenes, if nothing else happens, this year’s Hogwarts may have the best school spirit and discipline in history.

One session.

Of course, at this moment, most students do not realize what this means.

At the Gryffindor House table, the Weasley twins exchanged glances with each other, showing undisguised evil smiles.

"Hey, man, did you hear that? Filch II is about to show up, and our good times are over."

"Perhaps, then we have to be particularly careful about kindness recently to avoid handing in a certain piece of parchment as a transfiguration homework... But if Professor Black gets lost in the castle, do you think we should go and give him directions?"

"That might be a little difficult, since I haven't met Mr. Filch at night for nearly two years."

"Me too, I always pass by each other. It's really a pity..."

Fred sang along with George in a low voice, and both of them laughed silently.

Not long after the beginning of last semester, the Weasley twins discovered a special little secret.

In the beginning, Professor Otto Apokalis often wandered around the castle, as if he were the most dedicated castle administrator, wandering carefully and repeatedly in a certain area, especially from the principal's office to the castle.

This area in the corridor outside the Lanffindor common room has become the most terrible disaster area.

So for a long time, the Weasley twins were nervous. They thought it was not strange that the newly appointed "part-time disciplinary committee member" was going to take action against Gryffindor. Almost every time

The previous castle keepers liked to take the Gryffindor flag first, which has almost become a Hogwarts tradition.

However, as time went by, George Weasley and Fred Weasley took the initiative to contact them on the one hand, and on the other hand, based on the descriptions of some classmates who met the professor in the corridor, they soon learned from Austria

Judging from the confident words and contradictory actions of Professor Thomas Apocalis...

It seems that this old wizard from a foreign country is probably a road fool?

"Fred, George, you guys have been a little more restrained recently..."

At this moment, Bill Weasley frowned slightly, looked thoughtfully at the haggard-looking Professor Black sitting at the end of the faculty desk, and reminded him uneasily.

"That Professor Black may not be as simple as you think. He is different from Mr. Filch."

"Don't worry, Bill, we have a secret weapon!"

Fred Weasley winked and said mysteriously.

Seeing that Bill seemed to want to continue to instruct him, George Weasley patted him on the shoulder nonchalantly.

"It's impossible for us to be caught! In today's castle, maybe we are not as powerful as Miss Kaslana in terms of destructive power, but when it comes to skipping classes and night outings, you can't find anyone who can compare.

We are awesome!"

"I hope so..."

Bill Weasley shrugged noncommittally.

Although he didn't know where Fred and George's confidence lay, based on his understanding of their brothers, they probably had some strange reliance. There were many problem students in Hogwarts, but over the years

, people like George and Fred who are naughty and mischievous but never make a mistake are really rare.

Unfortunately……

Compared to his brothers' cleverness and luck, Bill believed in the vision of the Fairy Queen more.

As a Class B member of the SCP Foundation, he has seen too many incredible things during this time.

The most important thing is that Bill Weasley knows very well how desirable Hogwarts will become in the future, and what people who are qualified to take on the responsibilities of castle administrators during this special period may face.

Those pressures.

Thinking of this, Bill glanced meaningfully at his two younger brothers.

Fred and George had indeed become somewhat lawless in the years since he and Charlie graduated.

Defying authority does not mean that you do not have to abide by the rules. It would not be a bad thing if Fred and George could take this opportunity to experience some setbacks in school. At least it would prevent them from paying a heavier price later.



Following Dumbledore's introduction, several cold and sparse applause sounded in the auditorium.

As a young professor, Sirius Black received even less applause than Umbridge.

Except for Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy, two young wizards who had a good relationship with Sirius, who clapped their hands more enthusiastically, most students clapped their hands politely or even just sat in their seats.

There was no movement on it.

Of course, part of the reason for this may be the deduction of points from the "Discipline Committee".

Just like the Weasley twins, many young wizards' enthusiasm suddenly dropped a lot when they heard that Sirius Black would also serve as the castle administrator and patrol the castle with Argus Filch to investigate and deal with disciplinary violations.

"Hey, Harry, stop clapping like crazy."

Hermione, who returned to the Gryffindor table, gently poked the boy next to her and whispered.

"Look at Professor Snape, I think you will be in trouble later. You'd better think about who to help if the two of them fight."

Snape is the headmaster of Slytherin House. Everyone knows that he doesn't like Gryffindor, except Harry Potter. Perhaps it is because of Harry's seriousness and talent in Potions class, and

Or it could be for other reasons. In short, even Snape, who always hated Gryffindor, would show partiality from time to time when facing Harry.

Hermione could swear with her wand that she saw Snape secretly reminding Harry more than once when he was patrolling the classroom.

Undoubtedly, just like Elena in Professor Apocalypse's class, in the Potions classroom, Harry Potter is definitely the most valued student by Severus Snape, even if Harry is also the

The person who scolded the most.

"Huh? What's wrong with Professor Snape?"

Harry said with some confusion, and looked over blankly following Hermione's prompts.

At this moment, Snape was staring at the end of the staff table, his thin, yellow face almost twisted to the point of twitching, and where the wizard's gaze fell, Sirius was whispering and joking with Professor Lupin of Defense Against the Dark Arts.

With.

In Hogwarts, Snape is almost the formal professor Harry knows best.

Although there were times when Professor Snape would get furious because of some of his stupid questions or some potentially dangerous operational errors, he had never seen such a terrifying expression on Snape's face.

That expression was more appropriately said to be one of hatred than anger.

In Harry's mind, even after Christmas in the second semester of last year, he was busy participating in Quidditch training and accidentally forgot the homework assigned by Professor Snape. He tried to argue and was rudely beaten by Professor Snape.

The interruption was not even one-tenth of the emotion written on the Potions Professor's face now.

"As for our third and fourth professor..."

Dumbledore waited for the sparse applause to welcome Sirius Black to subside before continuing.

"I am very happy to announce to everyone that Hogwarts has welcomed two very experienced professors with profound knowledge in the corresponding fields. Hogwarts has worked at Hogwarts for many years and has rich experience.

Professor Slughorn, and Professor Damocles Babier, who invented Wolfsbane Potion and contributed it selflessly. In the next year, the two of them will work together with Professor Snape as potion masters.

Class Professor."

Following Dumbledore's introduction, Slughorn quickly stood up and waved gently to the students.

Slughorn's bald head shone in the candlelight, and his belly in a vest cast a large shadow on the table. Next to him was Damocles, who had a somewhat gloomy look and a nose like a beak.

Babir.

Slughorn? Bebeer?

At the guest of honor seat in the auditorium, officials from the Ministry of Magic looked at each other in surprise.

This was not on the list they knew before. They originally thought that these two old gentlemen were also today's guests.

Perhaps the students in the castle are a little unfamiliar with these two names, but as a student who has graduated from Hogwarts in recent decades, whether it is Slughorn, the former Dean of Slytherin and the Potions Professor,

, or Bebier, who has alleviated the werewolf problem to a great extent, they are really familiar with it.

Unlike the previous silences, enthusiastic applause first rang out from the faculty seats.

Immediately afterwards, Slytherin House also quickly burst into warm applause.

If you include Professor Umbridge from the Ministry of Magic, a total of three new professors who have appeared at Hogwarts so far have graduated from Slytherin, not to mention one of them is their old teacher.

Dean.

With such an overwhelming advantage, Slytherin's success rate in the Academy Cup this year has at least doubled.
