Chapter 776: I’m Still a Professor, so My Points Will Be Deducted
( ) The Christmas party at Hogwarts never disappoints the wizards in the school. The twelve Christmas trees are filled with gifts of all sizes. It was just that Katie, the most popular figure in the school recently, had just entered the auditorium. Before she could open a gift, Dumbledore called her to the side of the auditorium stage.
Snape's black robes shook slightly. When he saw Katie walking towards Dumbledore, his eyes flashed over like a bat, and he leaned his greasy-haired head against the side of the stage. on the shelf.
On the stage, the wizards of the Hogwarts Chorus, who were preparing to perform the opening chorus of the Christmas party, were beginning to adjust their positions under the command of Professor Flitwick. Their attention was also attracted by Dumbledore and Katie.
Dumbledore's blue eyes looked at Katie from behind his crescent lenses. Katie was able to recover from the curse that troubled him so quickly, which made him a little worried that Katie had been cast under black magic. For example, some demons or dark wizards would use it to consume vitality and lifespan. The price is exchanged for a short-term feeling of recovery to deceive the victims, making them mistakenly think that they have been cured. However, in the end, they depleted their own vitality and died in a short period of time.
"Miss Bell, welcome back to Hogwarts. To be careful, I will check you again. Please see that I am an old person. You know that people become timid when they get older..." The principal of Hogwarts stretched out his hand. The wand was pointed at Katie who was still a little confused for a while. After making a judgment for a long time, she said, "Congratulations, Miss Bell, you are indeed cured and there are no hidden dangers left."
"Go and enjoy your Christmas dinner." Dumbledore couldn't help but stroked his long beard. He had never seen all the amazing sights he had just seen in Katie's mind. These were definitely not... What a little witch could dream up.
Dumbledore's kind smile and words made the little witch happy. Even the greatest white wizard in the world confirmed that she was indeed cured. She now had evidence to refute those wizards who doubted the authenticity of her words.
"Ravenclaw's blessing." Katie's hands grasped the skirt of her chest, her eyes pious. After Dumbledore ascended the teacher's chair, Katie also walked towards the Gryffindor table.
After hearing what Katie said, Snape, who always had a gloomy expression, sarcastically said: "It's so stupid that a wizard would believe in the existence of God."
"Professor Snape, Hermione lent me a Muggle book. There is a mathematician and physicist named Blaise Pascal who said that rational people should believe in the existence of God, because if you are right you will make money, and if you are wrong You're not at a loss." On the stage, Luna, who was standing at the very edge, suddenly said this. She was holding Neville's frog Leif in her hand, and Helena was floating quietly in her arms. behind.
Snape turned to Luna to look at her protruding eyes with a sneer, and moved the corner of his mouth, wanting to mock the crazy girl, but he suddenly looked through Helena, who turned ninety degrees to face him with an expressionless face. Seeing the Boy-Who-Lived with green pupils in the distance behind the Ravenclaw ghost, Snape's expression was gloomy, he snorted coldly, turned around and walked towards the staff chair.
Later, the opening performance by the Hogwarts Chorus was impressive.
Professor Flitwick waved his baton along with the music, and his whole body seemed to be trembling with the music. From a distance, it looked like a fat little mushroom swaying rhythmically. His hands opened and closed, and his hair, which was trimmed like a pot lid specially for this performance, also beat with the beat of the music. The short Professor Flitwick seemed to turn into a jumping black note.
"Double, double, the toil and trouble, the fire is burning, the pot is bubbling~ Something evil is coming this way~"
"Boil and bake in the pot, Fennec snake's fillets, dragon's scales, wolf's teeth, witch's mother and bay~"
…
The high notes of the Ravenclaw ghost and the large toads held in the hands of the first row of choir members were eerily integrated into the song as it concluded with a "Caw-Caw". Every member of the group was singing from the bottom of their hearts, but except for a few Ravenclaws who found it pleasant, the other wizards were not able to appreciate this song, which seemed strange to wizards.
"Fortunately, we didn't let them perform at the welcome dinner of the Wizarding Contest. It was really shameful." Millicent Buster raised her fat chin and watched coldly as Professor Flitwick conducted the last note. , polite applause broke out in the auditorium.
Draco recalled the even more embarrassing chorus pout after Durmstrang and Beauxbatons performed at the Goblet of Fire welcome dinner, "It's better to let the choir perform this, at least they are the only ones who are embarrassed."
Afterwards, every little wizard feasted on the sumptuous Christmas meal, but at close to eight o'clock, Harry, Ginny and other wizards who had been invited by Professor Slughorn left their seats and walked out of the auditorium.
Arriving at the foyer, Alan noticed an unusually large number of girls wandering there. Professor Slughorn's party made the wizards who accepted his invitation very popular in the academy.
The Professor of Ancient Magic stood there and waited for a while, and his female companion, Miss Know-It-All, came down the other steps. After Dumbledore spoke, she ate a little and then hurriedly left the auditorium to dress herself up. .
The wizard watched with admiration the elegant Hermione approaching him tonight. She looked particularly beautiful today, a bit as stunning as the dance before the start of the Goblet of Fire in the fourth grade. She was still wearing the same blue gown. skirt, her hair was pulled into a bun loosely behind her head, fixed with a simple pearl hairpin, revealing her fair and delicate neck. She looked very elegant, but then her complaints ruined this feeling.
"My hair is too difficult to deal with. If it weren't for Professor Slughorn and the members of the Slug Club, I wouldn't have spent so much money to avoid being picked on by them and affecting the image of our protective umbrella." Focus your energy and time on this." Hermione pointed to her buns, "In order to make them smooth and shiny, I used three tubes of hair conditioner to smooth them down."
"Speaking of which, the inventor of these magic water for shampooing and conditioning hair was Harry's grandfather Fliemont Potter. After graduating from Hogwarts, he invented the instant smoothing hair spray. This best-selling product made The already wealthy Potter family's wealth has quadrupled. After retirement, he sold the company with a huge profit... I don't know how many Galleons Harry still has in his vault." As he spoke, Ai Lun touched the texture of his female companion's hair which was extraordinarily different today and said, suddenly his eyes widened and seemed to bulge out, "Hermione... Do you think Professor Snape's hair has always been so greasy because he is not Would you like to use Potter's shampoo?"
"Ten points each for Ravenclaw and Gryffindor." Snape's unique voice from the netherworld appeared eerily behind Allen, glared at the male and female companions who were a little dazed after being caught, and then dragged him away. The black cloak on his body floated away.
"...It's so unfair, I didn't say anything..."
"...I'm still a professor, so my points will be deducted..."
