Chapter 617: A Brainstorm
"... chocolate in the library! Get out... get out! Even if it's Easter, a library is just a library, not a common room where you can do whatever you want... get out!"
When Maca was leading the Hohenheim brothers and sisters past the library door and walking towards his office, there was a sudden scream in the library. You don't need to look to know that it must be Mrs. Pince who has started driving people away again.
"If you want any materials, going to the library is actually a good choice. Basically, Hogwarts has a rich collection of books." Maca said to Sarah behind him while leading the way. , "Of course, try not to eat snacks inside. Tea is only available near the reading table. As you can see, our librarian Mrs. Pince has a bad temper. If she finds out about eating inside..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard footsteps coming from far and near in the library. And at the next moment, two figures rushed out of the library like the wind, followed by various textbooks, schoolbags, quills, ink bottles and other items, they were flying in mid-air, chasing after each other. He beat the heads of those two people vigorously.
"Harry? Ginny?"
Maca turned around when she heard the movement, and soon found that the two were still acquaintances. He beckoned by the way, and took control of those flailing books and learning tools in his hands.
"Ouch... Maca, thank you."
As Harry said this while leaning on his knees and panting heavily, Ginny also nodded towards Maca.
"Maka, this...uh, what's the matter?"
Needless to say, Sarah who was following Maca, although she was still young, could always attract everyone's attention once her deceptively sweet smile appeared.
However, the most eye-catching person at the moment is not the cute little Sarah, but her fat brother Noah Hohenheim.
Before at The Three Broomsticks,
Sarah, who was said to be able to easily wake up the fat young master, made it clear that she would not cooperate. And Maca finally woke up the fat sleepy bug after a lot of hard work...
However, it turns out that in the face of those real sleepers, it is far from enough to wake them up by simply opening their eyes. The fat young master came back all the way, his whole body was groggy, as if he would fall asleep again at any moment.
Just looking at his huge body full of fat dangling there, everyone can't help but feel worried for him, for fear that he will collapse if he is not careful.
"Oh, these are the Hohenheim brothers and sisters from Switzerland," Maca introduced for Harry and Ginny, "this is the brother Noah, and this is the sister Sarah...I invited them to our Hogwarts in Beauxbatons before." Woz will visit and play, and he should live here for a while, so you can get to know each other first."
Having said that, he paused for a while, then reached out and patted the fat young master's arm.
"I met them at the Three Broomsticks just now, so I brought them here directly..." Maca said, "This guy drank a little too much wine, and he was always in such a daze on the way back, don't worry too much ——Sarah, this is Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley, both are nice people!"
"Ah...Miss Hohenheim, hello!" Harry first glanced at the fat man, thinking that talking to him was probably useless, so he simply turned his attention to little Sarah again.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Potter, Miss Weasley... Nice to meet you."
When greeting someone she doesn't know, this little girl will always use her age advantage to maintain a certain distance from people, giving the place a good impression of being well-behaved and knowing how to measure.
Although she said that, the treatment she gave to Maka was naturally a lot worse, but the more straightforward the communication, sometimes the more it could cultivate a simple but true sense of trust.
"Okay, you can talk more when you have a chance later, but forget it now." Maca waved his hand and said, "I have to go back to the office first, and then take them to the principal's office to say hello to Professor McGonagall... See you later!"
As he spoke, he glanced back and forth between Harry and Ginny, and finally said with a smile, "It's fine, it's fine...you go ahead, I won't bother you."
After returning Harry's textbooks and other school supplies to him, Maca took Sarah and fat young master Noah to continue walking deep into the corridor. After turning a corner, he left Harry and Ginny's field of vision.
"My office is a bit crowded, so I'll trouble you and your brother to wait here for a while, and I'll come out as soon as I get my things."
Maca said something to Sarah at the door, then opened the door of her office and walked in. He didn't close the door. Out of momentary curiosity, Sarah couldn't help but peek inside, but quickly drew her head back.
"Is this just 'a little crowded'?" Sarah couldn't help pursing her lips.
...
When Maca brought Sarah and the fat young man to the headmaster's office, Sarah seemed to feel that it would be impolite to let her brother meet the headmaster of Hogwarts in this dazed state, and finally she was willing to take the initiative to send him to the headmaster. Woke up completely.
To Maca's inexplicable joy, Sarah just stretched out her right foot towards her "Brother Noah" and kicked on the facing bone of the other's calf. The next second, the fat young master squatted down on the spot clutching his legs, howling dryly.
"Good morning, Brother Noah?" Sarah looked at the fat man in front of her with a smile, and said affectionately, "It's time for us to see Ms. Minerva McGonagall?"
"Oh...Of course, I...Hiss...I know, of course I know." The fat man gasped and said with a bitter face, "My dear sister, can't you be gentle? Hiss...I think this The bones must have split."
"Really?" Sarah asked with concern, "Brother Noah, do you need Sarah to fix it for you?"
When the fat young master heard it, Dang even jumped up and shook his calf hastily.
"No, I mean...well, look! I must have been wrong, it's all right! Nothing at all!"
Maca looked at the fat man who started playing tricks as soon as he woke up, smiled lightly and shook his head.
"Don't be too formal, this time you are just here at my invitation, and have nothing to do with your Hohenheim family. You just need to chat casually for a while—" He reached out and knocked on the door, casually said, "Just as my friend."
"Oh! That's really great!" The fat man clapped his hands happily.
As Maca knocked on the door of the principal's office, Professor McGonagall's serious response sounded as always, and the door was soon opened from the inside with a "click".
The one who came to open the door for Maca this time was not Charlotte, who was an assistant at Hogwarts. After all, it was a holiday, and she probably went to work at the Pig's Head Bar to earn pocket money. But this time, it was also not Mag who opened the door, because when the door slowly opened, a familiar figure appeared from the crack of the door.
"Professor Snape?" Maca was taken aback for a moment, and then said cheerfully, "Since you became the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, it seems that the number of times we meet outside the auditorium has decreased a lot?"
"Those little guys lack tempering, so it will take a lot of time to get them to keep up with my progress." Snape curled his lips, with his usual impatient expression, "Come in!"
He said so, but Maca could more or less hear the enthusiasm hidden in his words that was different from ordinary people.
For the current position, he has been looking forward to it for many years, and now that his wish has been fulfilled, he is naturally full of motivation. It's just that his character is like this, he never easily expresses his inner joy, but instead pretends to be indifferent, even a little bored.
If anything, Snape just wasn't good at expressing his emotions, that's all.
"...Oh, this is the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts, Mr. Severus Snape." Maca introduced Sarah and the fat young master Noah by the way, "Professor, this The two are the Hohenheim brothers and sisters, Sarah Hohenheim and Noah Hohenheim."
"Huh?" Snape, who was walking in front, turned around in surprise when he heard the words, and looked between the two siblings deliberately, "The Hohenheim family? Could it be the head of the Egyptian Alchemy Research Center? Children of M. Alessandro Hohenheim?"
"That's right." Maca nodded with a smile.
"Hello, Mr. Snape, Sarah von Hohenheim greets you." Sarah bowed lightly, "Mr. Snape, as a famous master of potions, has made extraordinary achievements in potions. Usually, my father often mentions you!"
Maca at the side laughed secretly when he heard the little girl compliment Snape so much. To be honest, Snape has always been very low-key. Of course, there is no need to say much about the level of Potions, but if you want to talk about achievements...but he is covering it all under his own hands! There are not many published in the academic world.
However, who wouldn't like to hear flattery? What's more, it came out of a little girl's mouth, which is even more comfortable.
Snape's words to her were quite useful, after all, the Hohenheim family was much more famous than him!
Of course, the two of them, one big and one small, don't have time to chat anymore. It was only a few steps from the door to the principal's desk, and soon Snape led them to Professor McGonagall.
"Professor, Happy Easter!" When several people stopped at the desk, Maca suddenly had an idea, took out a beautiful chocolate egg from his waist, and put it on Meg with a small basket. on the desk.
By the way, he actually brought it straight out of the Three Broomsticks, and the eggshell still contained alcohol!
