Chapter 248 New Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor

? Wizengamore's verdict on Peter Pettigrew was mixed. Many people were not satisfied with the result and believed that Peter should be sentenced to death.

Kill him outright, or let the dementors suck his soul...

When the truth of the incident was first made public, the voices for such opinions were high.

Over time, the wizards gradually calmed down, and some people began to think that this practice was too cruel. Even if Peter Pettigrew deserved what he deserved, and the kiss of the Dementor was so inhumane, the number of wizards who held this view gradually gained the upper hand.

However, when Peter was put into the Azkaban Wizard Prison, people were not at ease. After all, there were examples of Xu Langxing who escaped before.

Even with repeated assurances from the Ministry of Magic, Peter Pettigrew will be kept under strict watch.

The outside world is still full of doubts about this, they do not believe in Fudge and the Ministry of Magic.

In this case, the wizards became more and more curious about Xu Langxing, who was the only wizard who managed to escape from Azkaban guarded by the Dementors.

After learning that today's special issue at the Hogwarts Wizarding Headquarters at 36 Diagon Alley will publish an exclusive report on Xu Langxing's escape experience for the first time, many wizards queue up here early to wait for the store to open. .

In addition to these Wu Shi who are curious, more people simply worship Xu Langxing.

Just like the admiration of Lockhart a year ago, after the truth was made public, the brave and fearless Xu Langxing became the object of many people's admiration.

Unlike the Muggle world, where the wind worships power, wizards need heroes.

After Lockhart's true face was revealed, people were disappointed and began to look for a new person who could replace him. The appearance of Xu Langxing filled this gap.

He is a worthy hero, a fighter against the forces of darkness.

In particular, this new hero is still very handsome, and everything becomes even better. Many female wizards like Mrs. Weasley's age adore him madly.

Today's signing is Xu Langxing's first public appearance since he was found not guilty.

Although it was the last day of the Christmas holiday, his admirers gathered here to meet Xu Langxing and get his autograph.

In the crowd, there were also many underage wizards. They didn't come for Xu Langxing, but to buy Weasley's magic tricks and other interesting magic items made by the little Hogwarts wizards that were about to be sold on the first floor of the shop.

In the newspapers, Aiwen has advertised almost every item.

His strategy was unsuccessful, and almost the entire magic wind was mobilized.

At this time, there was a long queue outside the store, all the way to the street corner, no cramps could be seen, and more and more people were joining.

"Relax, Xu Langxing, you just need to sit here and sign, it's very simple." Ai Wenxian Xu Langxing seemed a little uneasy.

"I'd rather fight the Death Eaters than do this kind of thing again." Xu Langxing clenched the quill in his hand, and almost broke the shaft of the pen because of too much force.

Unlike Lockhart, he hasn't gotten used to the feeling of being out of focus.

"Harry, Ron, Hermione and I will help you, and the sales of the goods on the first floor will be handed over to Fred, George, Ginny, Dobby and Kreacher." Ivan ordered, "Especially Dodo Bee and Kreacher, you two have to work hard to adapt, and you will be responsible for the daily camp and sales here after today."

"Yes, sir!" said Dobby excitedly, the first time he had ever done such a thing.

Kreacher didn't answer. He looked suspiciously at the Weasley-like fireworks in front of him, as if he was researching this thing. Looking at his eyes, he obviously thought that what happened in front of him was absurd. If it wasn't for Xu Langxing's order, He had already turned away.

In Aiwen's plan, due to financial constraints, he did not plan to hire too many people. The editing of newspaper manuscripts can still be completed as before, and the shop usually has Lupin, Dobby, and Kreacher to take care of it. It should also be able to cope. .

As for Xu Langxing, he originally planned to help in the shop.

But this morning he received a letter from Dumbledore inviting him to replace Lupin as the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts.

He accepted the invitation, and everyone was very happy after hearing the news.

Harry, in particular, was most excited, he couldn't believe his godfather was going to be the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, one of his favorite classes.

Ai Wen was also looking forward to it, looking forward to Snape's expression after seeing Xu Langxing.

Unlike Professor Lupin, who was mild-mannered and unwilling to fight with others, with Xu Langxing's fiery personality, he would definitely go head-to-head with Snape.

There is no doubt that the course in the second half of the semester will be very exciting. This is not only a matter between the two of them, but also a confrontation between the two academies of Gryffindor and Slytherin. The competition for the Academy Cup this year must be very fierce.

In addition to this, Xu Langxing promised Aiwen that he would help him get the approval of the centaur tribe in the Forbidden Forest, and then obtain the treasure key of Gryffindor.

For this item that can enhance magic power, Aiwen has long been impatient.

In fact, after learning the news, apart from Ivan and Harry, the happiest people were Fred and George. The more chaotic they were, the more opportunities they had to play pranks. Many of the mischievous products that Mrs. Weasley and Hermione thought were dangerous and banned each other's sales could also be sold.

"You guys are ready, it's almost time, we're going to open for business." Ai Wen walked over to help Lupin open the store door.

The domestic scorpion spirit Dobby stood nervously behind the counter on the first floor, watching the crowd pouring in like a tide, they talked excitedly, and rushed straight to Xu Langxing in the center of the hall.

Just like Lockhart was selling well before, wizards bought a special issue of Hogwarts Wizarding News, Xu Langxing signed it, and took a group photo with everyone.

Xu Langxing smiled stiffly, coping with this matter with difficulty.

While queuing, the wizards looked curiously at the dazzling goods on the counter, many of which were very interesting and practical. It was hard for everyone to believe that these were the works of the little wizards. Will buy it later.

The counter in charge of Fred and George was crowded early with little wizards buying prank products, which were so popular that they were quickly swept away.

Irving noticed that Fred and George would secretly put a thick order form in the hands of a little wizard who bought their goods behind Mrs. Weasley and Hermione's back. something for sale.

In short, this seemingly hodgepodge of shops has achieved air success, and even the Muggle items that Ivan deliberately placed in the corner have attracted many people to buy.

Although the number of people is small, the water will continue to flow. For wizards, these are very novel things, and there will definitely be more and more people who are interested. (To be continued.)
