Due to the special nature of their profession, the wizards of the Scamander family generally understand the law and have a deep understanding of the laws of the Ministry of Magic in various countries, especially those regarding magical creatures.
Being a magizoologist is a high-risk profession. If you want to avoid breaking the law, don't you have to understand the law first?
Now that you understand the law, it is commonplace to defend magical creatures. The cases alone could fill a book.
Of course, not every defense is successful. When Newt was young, he often lost the case.
He once defended a poisonous horned beast not guilty.
Originally the punishment from the Ministry of Magic was just to cut off the poisonous horns, but because of Newt's "help", not only the poisonous horns were not saved, but two huge balls were also cut off;
Newt also defended a wizard who raised Snifflers. The original verdict was to pay compensation of one thousand galleons. After Newt argued hard, the fine was waived...
But the owner of the Niffler changed the sentence to Azkaban.
It can only be said that when Newt was young, as long as he performed normally, the clients who came to him were at least five years old.
For a long time, Dumbledore was embarrassed to admit that Newt was his student.
Newt's hands are stained with the blood of his customers, so he can continue to climb the ranks and become a high-end player.
The so-called high-end players make their own laws or modify the regulations that are unfavorable to them.
Newt set up a werewolf registry and cooperated with the Fire Dragon Research and Restriction Bureau to give himself the opportunity to take the fire dragon around the world without breaking the law.
This is a high-end player!
Newt certainly didn't want his grandson to take the same detour as he did, so it wasn't really difficult for Rolf, who had been under his long-term training, to help Hagrid write a well-founded defense statement.
The story of Professor Black and his werewolf friends soon spread in Hogwarts.
The sentimental students shed tears of sympathy. While moved, they also became more interested than ever in the Animagus mentioned by Professor Black.
In the library, all the magic books introducing the Animagus have been borrowed, and students who have registered for reservations are even waiting until around Easter.
Professor Sprout's greenhouse was also damaged.
Because the first step in practicing Animagus is to hold a single mandrake leaf in your mouth for a whole month.
Many students will quietly pluck a few leaves during herbal medicine classes.
By the time Professor Sprout discovered the clues, each mandrake plant had not yet matured, leaving only bare branches and vines.
Animagus instant potions also began to be circulated in the school.
It is said that after drinking this magic potion, one can easily learn the Animagus in just three minutes... without pain or traces, and without harming the body!
Those who didn’t know better thought it was an abortion advertisement.
In short, many students buy instant drugs and prepare to try what it feels like to turn into an animal.
This instant medicine is obviously a compound soup with animal hair added. Many students cannot return to their original appearance after taking it and have to be admitted to the school hospital.
Malfoy was no exception. He turned into a half-human ferret with furry hair on his face and a thick tail.
Harry was so excited that he and Ron came to the school hospital to visit Malfoy every day. They also borrowed Colin's camera to secretly take pictures of him.
Soon, the news that Harry forced Malfoy to perform for him and take nude photos spread throughout Hogwarts.
There were so many students hospitalized that Professor McGonagall had to explain the dangers of Animagus to everyone in class.
"Remember, the Animagus cannot transform into any animal at will, and its transformation is usually limited to non-magical creatures.
There is no medicine that can instantly cure animagus, it is all a lie!"
Standing on the podium, Professor McGonagall said in a stern tone:
"Also... even if you practice according to the Animagus steps, you will still fail even if you get to the last step."
"Why, Professor McGonagall?" MacMillan asked curiously, raising his hand.
"Because laying a good foundation in transfiguration is the prerequisite for mastering the Animagus." Professor McGonagall explained:
"Only transformation masters can learn the Animagus. You can't even turn a teapot into an animal. How can you successfully turn yourself into an animal?"
"So, if you want to learn the Animagus, you must first focus on our courses and don't aim too high."
Justin raised his hand again and asked: "Professor McGonagall, I heard that there is a kind of wizard who is a born Animagus?"
"Mr. Finch-Fletchley, you want to say Metamorphmagus, right?" Professor McGonagall corrected:
"There are indeed wizards who are extremely gifted in shape-shifting. They can change their appearance at will without taking polyjuice potion."
The little wizards all whispered, if you can change your appearance at will, doesn't that mean you can become anyone?
"Professor, have you seen Metamorphmagus?" Hannah asked curiously.
"I've seen it before. I even taught it." Professor McGonagall paused and smiled:
"But wizards like Disguise Magus are unique. I have only met two such students in all my years of teaching."
Rolf narrowed his eyes. He knew Tonks was a Metamorphmagus, but neither of her parents were.
Besides her, who else could it be?
Rolf glanced at Shirley beside him, who was reading and flipping through the sixth-grade Transfiguration textbook.
Speaking of which, the girl with the ponytail's talent for transformation is truly worthy of being evaluated as one in a million. She is clearly only in the third year and has almost completed all the courses with Professor McGonagall.
"Professor McGonagall, take a closer look. Am I the one-of-a-kind Disguise Magus?" Justin continued to ask.
"Mr. Finch-Fletchley, I hope you are a transfiguration genius more than anyone else." Professor McGonagall said with a smile:
"You know what? Every time I correct your paper, it's as good as rewriting it myself."
The students all burst into laughter.
At everyone's request, Professor McGonagall turned into a tabby cat and showed the Animagus to the little wizards.
The students all applauded.
Luo Fe stretched out, and the tabby cat hurriedly jumped off the platform. With a slight pop, Professor McGonagall had returned to its original shape and was staring at Luo Fe.
"..."
Luofu looked confused. Professor McGonagall, your stress reaction is too great.
Professor McGonagall was indeed very scared. After all, she was hugged and spanked once by Rolf, which made her afraid to turn into an animal in front of outsiders for several years.
Professor McGonagall pursed her lips, her eyes flickered, and she suddenly said:
"If you really want to experience the feeling of turning into an animal, I can make it happen."
Professor McGonagall straightened her clothes and smiled: "Come on, Mr. Scamander, let's start with you."
