Early the next morning, the permissions of Hermione, Hannah, and Luna were changed, and the proposal to upgrade the query level to "Major Arcana" appeared at the same time as Dumbledore, Scamander, Xenophilius,
On the desks of Lockhart, Flamel and others.
Of course, the relatively special Mr. [World] was informed personally by Elena.
After all, Reserve Food hasn't learned how to deliver letters to ghosts yet.
As she expected, after seeing the waiting list, Mr. [Hermit] seemed to be quite excited.
The only good thing is that Hermione, Hannah, and Luna haven't even officially joined yet. They are still reading information most of the time and accompanying Elena to complete daily tasks.
"Memorial Approval" link.
Gringotts, Destiny Group, Hogwarts Planning...
Behind every field involves the lives of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of millions of people.
As Elena's "personal intern secretary", Hermione, Hannah, and Luna absorbed all kinds of knowledge like sponges, carefully thinking about every order Elena signed and responded to, for fear that after officially taking over the job
, accidentally caused some big trouble.
If there are no special circumstances, after Christmas, they will have to start to deal with some simple matters gradually.
Umbridge has not continued to appear in the second-year class since then, and she has a lot to worry about this week.
Defense Against the Dark Arts is her main position at Hogwarts. As a senior investigator sent to the school by the Ministry of Magic, if she cannot pass the review of her own courses, then naturally she has no reason or face to review other professors.
Umbridge hated a certain werewolf professor deep down in her heart. As long as she wanted to stay at Hogwarts, she had to adjust her teaching content according to Remus Lupine's requirements.
Of course, Remus Lupine did not deliberately target this uninvited guest from the Ministry of Magic.
As the teaching reform of Hogwarts advances, the original single-discipline teaching system gradually begins to become difficult.
Compared with some conflicts and undercurrents, Lupine still values the teaching effect more. If Umbridge is willing to focus part of her energy on teaching, he will be very happy to let her return to the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. After all, now
Hogwarts has a total of eight years.
On the other hand, school professors are not the only ones who feel the pressure in Hogwarts.
During this period, many students began to try to "smuggle" refreshing potions from the school infirmary for various reasons.
Unlike those illegal drugs, the refreshing medicines produced by the school infirmary are quite effective in studying, and can at least double the efficiency.
This practice was quickly discovered by the professors, and Percy Weasley was even deducted ten points for it. In just one day, he used different reasons to take five tubes of refreshing potions from Madam Pomfrey and supplied them to
With his girlfriend and his younger brothers and sisters.
However, this is not the reason why Percy was deducted points.
What really caused the model student's points to be deducted was that he yelled loudly in the auditorium and almost hit someone.
All the students in the school now knew that George and Fred secretly sold the refreshing potion that Percy had obtained. The most pitiful thing was that before they could complete the transaction, they were caught by Luna and others who were on patrol.
Then, they confiscated the stolen goods and informed their respective superiors.
Obviously, this made Percy very angry.
If Charlie and Bill hadn't caught him in time, the Gryffindor prefect might have ended their marriage at dinner that night.
"If you two fail your class this semester," Percy said, pointing to the two bastards who were pretending to be stupid in the lounge, giggling incoherently, "I will definitely write a letter to Mum and make a big pot of pick-me-up potion.
I’ll feed you three bowls every day until your O.W.Ls exam is over.”
After the Weasley family made such a fuss, Hogwarts' daily refreshment supplies were finally officially put on the agenda.
The only contradiction is that the three potion masters have not yet been able to unify the final formula.
…………
The second week of December.
As usual, the deans of each college will start collecting lists of students staying at school for Christmas.
However, Hogwarts obviously broke a lot of conventions this year.
It is extremely rare that the school has posted a special statement informing all students that they are not allowed to stay in school during this Christmas period.
Some students who were unable to go home due to family reasons also found wizard families who were willing to invite them to spend Christmas with them through the communication of professors.
What is even more strange is that neither Professor Dumbledore nor some well-informed wizard families have much explanation for the unusual decision to clear Hogwarts this Christmas. The reason is "repairs."
Cleaning the Castle”.
"Isn't this unreasonable?" Hannah said with a confused look on her face, "If it's repairing or cleaning, isn't it okay on a regular basis?"
"Well, judging from historical records, this is the case. The last time everyone left school at Christmas was..."
Hermione nodded slightly and subconsciously took out "Hogwarts: A History of the School" and was about to confirm it again.
“First time in this century”
At this moment, Elena came over with a list and answered casually.
"There was a near miss more than fifty years ago, but under the direction of Tom Riddle, Hogwarts was not closed in the end, and Christmas was spent peacefully. This content should appear in the latest version of
"Hogwarts: A History."
"The latest version of 'Hogwarts: A History'? You wouldn't just give that as a Christmas gift, would you?"
Hermione turned back to look at Elena, her eyes lingered on Elena's stiff smile for a moment, and she raised her eyebrows slightly.
Since watching the "third generation Dark Lord" handle government affairs at close range during this period, Hermione and others' views have been completely shattered and reorganized without exception, especially when they took the time to visit Huo Hua.
After Gwartz's underground vault, he redefined stone.
The more critical point is that she only saw Elena's holdings in various shops in Diagon Alley yesterday.
Even the seemingly aloof Ollivander's Wand Shop pays three copper Knuts as dividends to Destiny Holdings for every wand sold.
As for a store like Flourish and Blotts with a weak background and heritage, Gringotts and the Destiny Group have already completed cross-controlling. Let alone taking a book from the shelf, even if it is to give away all the books in the entire bookstore,
Coming here is just a matter of writing a letter.
"Well, of course not, of course not"
Elena replied with a smile, shook the parchment in her hand, and quickly changed the topic.
"Girls, please sign here. This is the 'chartered stay' list for this year's Hogwarts Christmas. After the holidays begin, at least dozens of powerful wizards will join forces to cast expulsion spells at Hogwarts. Those on the list
Anyone outside the school will be temporarily forcibly kicked out of the school."
"Eh? Are we... staying at Hogwarts for Christmas?"
"Yeah, don't worry about it for now. Professor Dumbledore has made arrangements... The reason is to go to my house to play."
Elena looked at Hannah who was struggling with her homework, explained casually, and turned her head to look to the side.
"As for Luna..."
"Dad will also be there, right? As a [hermit]"
Luna said calmly without raising her head, and continued to look through the weekly investment report provided by Gringotts this week.
Although she can't fully understand the business process yet, her duty is not to understand the logic of venture capital. She only needs to pick out some that don't look right. This is the special right given to her by Elena.
veto power.
"Well, all the 'Major Arcana' will be there at that time."
Elena nodded and pointed to the marble floor under their feet.
"This is the highest-level hunt that the wizarding world has jointly launched in recent centuries."
