Chapter 1217 Different Worries
Hogwarts Castle, Transfiguration Classroom.
The scene of crowds of people that Lucius Malfoy imagined did not happen.
As he, a member of the Hogwarts Board of Directors, entered the classroom, the center of discussion around him did not change in the slightest.
No parent of the student took the initiative to come over and say hello. He was like a drop of oil falling into clear water, looking out of place in the bustling classroom.
However, as the contemporary head of a well-known pure-blood wizarding family in the wizarding world, Lucius Malfoy quickly discovered one of the particularly important reasons.
"Narcissa, do you think... there are too many Muggles in this classroom?"
Lucius frowned and looked around with disgust, as if he saw some extremely disgusting vomit.
Not far away from him, a middle-aged Muggle man with curly black hair was chatting with a shameless wizard.
"...Oh, yes, Justin was going to go to Eton Middle School - his mother was quite disappointed when she learned that he decided to come to Hogwarts. But I think this is a good thing -"
"Hogwarts is the best school in the world, Mr. Finch-Fletchley. You should ask your wife to come and see it."
"There is no way. The school only sent one pass this time. After discussing it, we decided that I would check it out first..."
Mr. Finch-Fletchley shrugged regretfully, touched his son's head, and replied with a smile.
"After all, there is a big difference between the magical world and the non-magical world. We are not like your wizarding families who can tutor their children to learn magic at home."
"I have to say that this parent-teacher conference was very well done. I have long wanted to see if my boy is studying seriously and find out what his talent is in this area."
Unlike those wizarding families who already live in a magical society, most of the news about the magical world and Hogwarts can only come from the descriptions of their own children's holidays for non-magical families like the Finch-Fletch family. Even though professors will come to introduce and answer questions when enrolling, the one-sided lack of daily contact and various worries are still unavoidable problems.
For some pragmatic and serious old-fashioned families like Mr. Fenglieri, they are very eager to learn about the progress and prospects of magic learning.
In particular, what exactly did your children learn in magic school, what kind of work they can do in society in the future, and what kind of life they can live.
"Don't worry, Mr. Finch-Fletchley - well, I mean there's no need to worry about little Finch-Fletchley's studies."
Before the middle-aged wizard could answer, a hoarse old woman's voice suddenly sounded. The two of them suddenly turned their heads and looked in the direction of the source of the sound.
A scary-looking old witch walked into the classroom at some point. The shadow of the scary witch he had seen in a picture album flashed through Mr. Finch-Fletch's mind.
The old witch wore a green robe and moth-eaten fox fur, and her pointed wizard hat was undoubtedly decorated with a stuffed vulture.
Behind her was a round-faced little wizard who looked so nervous that he was about to faint.
"Although this is a bit absolute, as far as I know, most of the young wizards who come from the non-magical world have quite good results——"
"Augusta Longbottom, this is my grandson...Neville Longbottom."
The old witch walked over, glanced at the two middle-aged men in confusion, and politely pointed to the seat next to them.
"I hope I didn't disturb the two of you chatting, but this seems to be Neville's seat? Hmm——"
"Oh, I'm sorry, Mrs. Longbottom—"
The middle-aged wizard stood up quickly and said with some embarrassment, "I see there is no one here. Let's sit down and chat for a while..."
"Well, you don't have to be so reserved..." Mrs. Longbottom stared at the somewhat embarrassed middle-aged wizard and shook her head with a complicated expression, "If you are because-"
Since the public trial a few months ago, almost everyone knows the names of the heroes who sacrificed their lives in the fight against the dark forces.
Among them, the Longbottoms who suffered misfortune in the final madness of the "Death Eaters" are undoubtedly the most lamentable.
The Ministry of Magic and the Auror Office also took this opportunity to publicize a wave of Aurors. Compared with other combatants who died in the dark years, this Auror couple who met the misfortune before dawn is obviously more in line with the Ministry of Magic's "politics" Caliber" - Under the quiet guidance of some invisible hands, the Aurors' dedication and sacrifice in the magical society gradually gained the respect they deserved.
In fact, if the Longbottoms had not been transferred to the Salzburg Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies for treatment, their ward would have been filled with monthly condolences alone.
As time went by, Augusta Longbottom also came out of the short-term relief and began to become calm and even a little bit unexplainably tired.
However, before Mrs. Longbottom could finish her words, there was another noisy conversation and footsteps coming from behind.
The classroom door was pushed open again, and a large group of little wizards and students' parents rushed in in a chaotic manner.
"Ron?" Neville turned his head to look at the door and shouted in confusion.
"Why don't you—"
"Professor McGonagall just informed us of a temporary change of venue. He said that the two second-grade classes will be held together for a parent-teacher conference this time..."
Ron was holding an open magic book with a small, furry magic eye floating on it, looking a little unhappy.
After several discussions, Mr. Weasley finally chose to go to Ginny's side. After all, this was Ginny's first school year at Hogwarts.
Mrs. Weasley followed George's suggestion and went to the "Master of Magic Class" to inspect witches of suitable age.
As for the parent-teacher conferences of Ron, Percy, Fred and George, it naturally became "remote magical companionship".
What's even more unfortunate is that Ron is connected to Charlie's channel, and he doesn't even dare to complain loudly.
However, most of the time, people's joys and sorrows are obviously not the same.
Compared to Ron Weasley's gloominess, Hermione, who proposed the plan and helped implement it, is now in a pretty good mood.
As the top honors student in the second year of Hogwarts, before Elena arrived, she naturally became the "other people's child" surrounded by many parents of students. As for Mr. Granger's smile, he was even brighter. It's like the midday sun.
In contrast, the expression on the face of Lucius Malfoy, who was ignored by no one, became more and more gloomy.
It was obvious that Dumbledore had unknowingly recruited too many students from the Muggle world.
Perhaps, after this parent-teacher meeting is over, he will find a way to remind the board of directors - and of course the "young lady".
After all, Dumbledore is best at using this subtle behavior to influence others. He has to remind the Demon King Princess to be wary of Dumbledore's conspiracy and not to be too gullible to those in the Muggle world, otherwise she is likely to lose her origins. Wizarding World Support.
