As Malfoy and others left the Forbidden Forest and entered St. Mungo's Hospital, the first event of the Triwizard Tournament finally came to an end.
Compared with the student group, the Death Eater group's competition is bloodier, more violent, and has a higher death rate.
Here we highlight the benefits of being completely closed. There are no live broadcasts, no audience, and no reports. Not to mention that it is easy to operate behind the scenes. Even if a warrior dies, he can be dealt with coldly.
Of course, some rumors still spread. After all, some students' parents were warriors, such as Malfoy.
He even took Goyle and Crabbe to publicize it hard, trying to let everyone know that many people died in the Triwizard Tournament, and it was full of shady stories and crimes.
But unfortunately, no one paid any attention to him. All the attention of the little wizards was attracted by another piece of gossip, so that they were even absent-minded in class.
In the Transfiguration class on Wednesday, Professor McGonagall also noticed that the students were distracted. She stood on the podium and had to raise her voice and said:
"When transforming across species, in addition to obeying Gamp's basic transformation law, you must also abide by Potolemi's third principle of transformation - that is, organisms that transform across species must satisfy their physiological structure and habits -"
Professor McGonagall waved her magic wand, and with a slight pop, the guinea fowl turned into a butterfly.
"So, can anyone tell me what's wrong with this Arrow-ringed Butterfly?"
Luofu observed the arrow-ringed butterfly, raised his hand and replied:
"The butterfly will stand upright when it is at rest, but this butterfly's wings are spread flat on its back. This is the habit of moths."
"Very good, very detailed observation. Two points for Hufflepuff." Professor McGonagall said, "Any more?"
For a moment, no one spoke in the classroom. Luofu looked at the butterfly. Although he felt that it was a little inconsistent, he couldn't think of anything wrong with it for a while.
He touched Shirley lightly with his elbow and asked in a low voice: "Do you know?"
Shirley nodded and was about to answer when Professor McGonagall, who noticed this scene, asked first: "Miss Swinton?"
The girl with the ponytail had no choice but to stand up and replied softly:
"The ratio of the body length of the Arrow Ring Butterfly to the spread length of its wings appears to be close to one to one, but the true length ratio should be approximately ph - 0.618."
Luofu raised his eyebrows. No wonder he always felt that something was inconsistent. It turned out that it was not in line with the golden section.
"Very good, very good, five points for Ravenclaw." Professor McGonagall looked at Shirley with satisfaction and said with a smile:
"Cross-species deformation is different from object deformation. Object deformation can have any shape, but cross-species deformation must conform to biological structure.
If you want to become a cat but have a dog's tail, that's a mistake, and not conforming to the golden section is also an easy mistake to make."
"In fact, most animals in nature - the ratio of the diameter of each rib ring to the diameter of the adjacent ribs in the nautilus, the segmentation on insects - all conform to the golden section."
"When you reach sixth grade, when you are exposed to human body deformation, you will also focus on this rule - the three bones of each finger of a human form a golden ratio, and the shape of the human ear is designed to be a perfect spiral, like
Nautilus."
"This is also why many wizards can be seen through at a glance when they transform into other people. It is not in line with human body science..."
Many students jotted down notes in a hurry, but more of the little wizards did not write, and were still whispering, not paying attention to the class at all.
Rove saw Professor McGonagall purse her lips tightly. This small movement was obviously a precursor to getting angry.
Sure enough, the next second an angry sound crackled in the classroom like a whip.
"To be honest, I think the lecture I taught in this class was quite exciting, and there wasn't too much boring stuff." Professor McGonagall looked around and said angrily:
"Why are you so absent-minded and don't even take notes? Do you know how to do it?"
The students immediately took out their quills and started writing, while Professor McGonagall named them:
"Miss Abbott, you have been whispering to Susan Bones the whole class. What were you two talking about, so engaged?"
Hannah stood up tremblingly and said: "Sorry, Professor, we were just talking about the Triwizard Tournament..."
"It's been many days since the first round of competition, and it's not enough for you two to discuss?!"
"It's not about the competition, but..." Hannah hesitated and confessed: "It's about the prom. We heard that Hogwarts is going to hold a prom."
"Who did you listen to?" Professor McGonagall asked.
"Everyone says so." Hannah asked boldly, "Professor, is it true?"
Professor McGonagall didn't want to say anything at first, but seeing the students staring at her expectantly, she nodded and said:
"Yes, the ball will be held in the auditorium at eight o'clock on Christmas evening and end at twelve midnight - this is a traditional part of the Triwizard Tournament and a great opportunity for us to socialize with foreign guests."
The students burst into thunderous cheers with excitement, which immediately echoed throughout the classroom.
Shirley was startled when she heard this. She had heard her roommate in the dormitory talking about the prom. She thought it was false news, but she didn't expect it to be true.
The girl with the ponytail glanced at someone aside from the corner of her eye, but Luo Fu was lowering his head and writing notes quickly.
"Professor McGonagall," a male Ravenclaw student sitting in the back row raised his hand and asked hopefully: "Are there any restrictions on who can be invited to dance partners?"
"No." Professor McGonagall shook her head and said: "You can invite anyone, preferably students from Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. Of course, our junior and senior students can also..."
Justin whistled and asked, "Can I invite boys?"
The crowd burst into laughter, and some applauded him.
"Of course, Mr. Justin Finch-Fletchley, this is your freedom." Professor McGonagall rarely joked:
"But I have to give you...and you some advice from people who have experienced it."
"You'd better choose your favorite dance partner quickly, and then directly send out invitations. If you hesitate until the next few days when the dance is about to start, you will find that the good girl has been invited by others."
The girls showed knowing smiles and nodded constantly, as if they were the good girls that Professor McGonagall said.
The boys all looked at each other thoughtfully, and some glanced at Shirley, who was sitting in the front row.
"The same goes for girls." Professor McGonagall blinked, "Outstanding boys are in high demand, so don't hesitate."
Luofu immediately felt a group of hot eyes on him, as well as whispers and laughter.
"One more thing," Professor McGonagall looked at Rolf and Shirley and said, "According to tradition, the dance is held by warriors and their partners."
"Scamander and Miss Swinton, you two cannot miss the Yule Ball. You must invite your partner to the opening dance."
Rolf had known about this for a long time, so he didn't pay much attention to it, but Neville on the side couldn't wait to ask:
"Rolf, who are you going to invite?"
Shirley, who was just looking at the boy from the corner of her eye, immediately turned her head and looked at Luo Fu.
Neville continued: "Shirley, Hermione or the Delacour sisters?
Or, the twin Patil sisters, I think they are both quite beautiful, Ginny of the Weasley family, seems to come to you often, and Slytherin Linda Avery, she is a big fan of yours,
A Scamander seminar was also formed in Slytherin House..."
