Chapter 279 Good Night and Insomnia

Hogwarts, second floor of the castle, History of Magic classroom.

Professor Binns should not be able to, nor would he bother to lie - if he wanted to, he could always remain silent.

Of course, even if he didn't lie, what he said must not be the complete truth.

But this does not affect the overall clarity and reliability of the entire historical context. At least for now, there is no "person" in the entire magical world who is more authoritative than Professor Binns, who has personally experienced all history.

Elena looked at the little wizards who fell into silence in the classroom, and felt that there was a breathless, dull and uneasy atmosphere in the air. Although the entire classroom was quiet, there was an extremely terrifying power brewing in the silence. . Everyone continued to stare at Professor Binns, hoping that he would continue speaking.

There is no doubt that Professor Binns also felt this uneasy atmosphere.

He looked dimly at the students in the classroom, and every face turned towards him.

Professor Binns suddenly felt a burst of regret, asking these little guys to face the truth in the first class. What on earth did he just say? In the face of the will of the entire magical world and even the entire world, these little guys just faced the truth. As a fledgling entering the magical world, even if you know the truth, what can you do except increase your worries?

"Okay, that's it."

Professor Binns waved his hand tiredly, lowered his head slowly, and fiddled with the lesson plan in his hand.

"This is a decision unanimously passed by the magic governments of each country. If you are still interested in the subsequent history, you can get the right to study on your own after you pass the N.E.W.Ts examination on the history of magic. The premise is that you need to pass each year's N.E.W.Ts. The History of Magic exam and the O.W.L exam will do - and if you want to pass the exam, you need to master these things first, instead of going too far to study these things, which may confuse your knowledge."

"In any case, if it is only used as a measurement coordinate in the time dimension, the Gregorian calendar can still be trusted when used to describe and record historical facts. If you are willing, let us return to the current history and return to what we have left. , come with the facts that are practical, credible, and reliable that are suitable for you to learn and memorize!"

As he spoke, Professor Binns cleared his throat again, made a cough that sounded like broken chalk, opened his notebook, and continued to read in his constant dry, low, monotonous, drowsy voice. The awkward names and boring dates in the notebook.

only……

This time, no one in the class was distracted.

Likewise, no one raised their hands to ask questions - the only sounds left in the classroom were the sound of Professor Binns' lecture and the rustling of quills across the paper.

…

"I just don't understand one thing," Hermione said, holding the textbook and looking at Elena and Hannah in confusion, "Why didn't the magical world consider reconciling with the non-magical world after the Ministry of Magic was established? She just avoided it. The problem will never be solved and one day people will find themselves in similar situations again.”

get out of class was over by this time, and they were packing up their textbooks and notes and preparing to leave the classroom.

That paragraph in class seemed to have exhausted all Professor Binns' energy. There were no more unnecessary stories in the subsequent History of Magic lectures. After the bell rang, Professor Binns silently closed the lesson plan and disappeared without saying a word. into the blackboard.

This made the little wizards who had been holding back the whole class even more uncomfortable, as if their shouts were suppressed in the deepest part of their hearts.

"Maybe they tried it before and failed."

Elena shook her head and said softly, but did not explain why.

Regarding this period of history, she only accidentally learned about this period of history from the W.O.M.B.A.T. test questions of the Wizarding Examination Authority:

The newly established British Ministry of Magic sent a special delegation to contact the Muggle monarchs William III and Mary II, hoping that Muggle law would recognize and protect wizards - obviously, this attempt failed. The non-magical government only promised to maintain a certain degree of cooperation, but refused any explicit recognition and protection.

However, Elena would not easily tell anyone these stories from the book world before finding the corresponding historical data for secondary verification. At best, they would only serve as a background introduction.

In fact, after going through this section of magical history, Elena has vaguely guessed what the dilemma Grindelwald and Dumbledore encountered back then - and if nothing else, this should be the case soon. What she will face in the future.

"It seems to be a more difficult task than imagined..."

Elena sighed silently in her heart, feeling as if her hair had turned a bit whiter. "It seems that just to help Hogwarts earn a lot of gold galleons is not enough. I want it." The entire world needs more fulcrums...the key is, where are they?"

Seeing that Elena didn't have much desire to talk to Hermione, the other young wizards who originally wanted to come over to talk stopped, silently put away their textbooks and notebooks, and left the History of Magic classroom with their own concerns.

"Well, see you tomorrow. Good night, Elena..."

Standing at the fork of the marble stairs on the second floor, Hermione held the "History of Magic: Hardcover Collector's Edition" she had just bought, and glanced at the worried Elena with some worry, but hesitated to speak.

"Don't worry, I'm just a little tired suddenly. You should be fine after a night's sleep." Elena stepped forward, hugged Hermione gently, and said in a relaxed tone, "Good night, Hermione."

Hannah on the side shook her golden braid, smiled, patted and pinched Elena's cheek.

"Don't worry, I'm here, this road-crazy white-haired dumpling won't get lost."

"I'm not a road idiot!"

Elena puffed up her cheeks, the little fur on her head shook angrily, and retorted without thinking.

"No, you are!" X2

Little Beaver and Little Tienniu responded in unison.

Looking at the two lolita who seemed to have formed a strange strategic alliance, Elena felt a subtle sense of disappointment in her heart - it's amazing, these two wings actually started to join forces to tease, it's time to take action!

"Hmph, it seems I need to let you know who has the final say at Hogwarts!"

Without any hesitation, Elena opened her bow from left to right and directly launched a range attack.

"Hahahaha, it's so itchy."

"Ah! Elena, you're done!"

"Hey, don't scratch my waist..."

"Acridine~ It hurts, it hurts, don't pull my stupid hair..."

After the three little lolita were fooling around at the stairs for a while, they suddenly stopped in unison, looked at each other's embarrassed looks, and laughed involuntarily.

"Well...good night. Elena, Hannah."

"Good night, Hermione."

"See you tomorrow."

After adjusting her clothes a little, Elena waved to Hermione with a relaxed expression. Her hand, held by Hannah Abbott, walked obediently towards the Hufflepuff common room downstairs. However, the depression that had been weighing on her heart since she came out of the History of Magic classroom dissipated a lot inadvertently.

No matter what happens in the past or the future, at least it seems that it is still too far away for them now.

However, what Elena doesn't know is...

At the same time, in a small remote village, a little girl wearing the same necklace as her once again suffered from insomnia...
