The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 257 Ada who made headlines

After sending off the Minister of Magic, Fudge, and Lucius Malfoy who came to find fault, Hogwarts became a sea of ​​joy, because the headmaster Dumbledore held a celebration.

Students left the common room in droves, with smiles on everyone's faces.While Colin Creevey and Justin Finchrey are not yet awake, the school is safe and there will be no more victims.

Plus the annoying Gilderoy Lockhart has also left the school, he will receive justice and get the punishment he deserves.Aren't those two things together worth celebrating?
In the Great Hall, Ernie MacMillan walked up to Harry, apologizing endlessly for his own stupidity and his own misunderstanding.Hagrid also appeared beside Harry and gave him a big bear hug.

When Ada appeared at the banquet scene fragrantly, the whole banquet reached its climax.Not because of Ada's appearance, but because Professor McGonagall just announced that the school has decided to cancel the final exam for this school year in order to entertain everyone!

The cheers of the students grew louder, and the ceiling of the auditorium was almost blown off.Of course, there were also discordant voices in the crowd, and Hermione, who had escaped, hugged her head and shouted "Oh, no!".Obviously, compared to the silent Ada, the second generation of Miss Know Everything really loves exams.

Dumbledore also announced that he would add [-] points to Ida and Harry each, and a special contribution award to the two-person school.This means that Gryffindor successfully defended the Academy Cup, and Ada finally got her wish.

The festivities continued throughout the night, and even after curfew, excited students could still be seen in the corridors.Even Filch, who was always devoted to his duties, was rarely absent from work. He stayed in his room, holding Mrs. Norris' toys and shedding tears of joy.

The common room in Gryffindor was even more lively, and the lion cubs had a pajama party.Professor McGonagall also "had fun with the people". She changed her previous strictness and appeared in the common room with a hairnet and pajamas.

No one sleeps at Hogwarts tonight!
After tossing around for a whole night, the result was a lack of energy the next day. There were not many people who could appear in the auditorium for breakfast in the morning. Even Ada didn't get up until noon, let alone other students.

Ada, who just woke up, still doesn't know that her life is about to undergo earth-shaking changes, and she will also experience Harry's troubles, let alone what is waiting for her in the next day.

And it all started with Cornelius Fudge.The Minister of Magic did not make a trip in vain. He not only took away Gilderoy Lockhart, who was bluffing and deceitful, but also got first-hand information about the Chamber of Secrets.During his term of office, the legend that has been passed down for thousands of years was uncovered, which can be regarded as his own achievement.

So the Minister ordered the people under him to start working overnight, and published the whole story of the secret room in today's "Daily Prophet".The headlines on the front page, this is a chance that someone will never get in a lifetime, but the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets can easily do it, not to mention that there are Dumbledore and Harry Potter in it.

Every wizard who bought the Daily Prophet would have read the report, knowing that Dumbledore and Harry Potter had worked together to solve the Chamber of Secrets.But the strange thing is that the people didn't care about Harry, but became interested in the strange name Esmeralda Drizzt.

Needless to say, Dumbledore is the greatest wizard, and it is not surprising that he has made any feats.Needless to say, Harry Potter defeated the Mysterious Man when he was one year old, the savior of the British wizarding world, and entering the Chamber of Secrets is just a basic exercise, and he doesn't even need to hit 6.

Unlike Dumbledore and Harry, Ada is a nobody.This is the first time Ada has appeared in the "Daily Prophet", and it is also the first time she has entered the public eye, letting more wizards know that there is such a person in Hogwarts.

Although Ada's name has appeared in Transfiguration magazine many times, but it is an academic journal, and there are few people who read it. In addition, she still follows Professor McGonagall, so few people really pay attention to her. .

But this time is different. The "Daily Prophet" is the newspaper with the largest sales volume, and Ada is on the front page, so it's hard not to notice.And in this report, Ada is neither a soy sauce character, a poor victim, nor a violent murderer, but the key person who first found the clues in the secret room.

Such a little-known little person suddenly became such a key role and became an indispensable helper to Dumbledore. Naturally, people would be interested to learn more about how she did it all.

The editor-in-chief of the "Daily Prophet" is worthy of being the editor-in-chief, fully worthy of the chair under his buttocks, and knows how to attract readers' attention.The editor-in-chief complied with the readers' calls, and satisfies everyone's curiosity in the evening paper that day, reporting more news about Ada.

Through this report, the wizards not only know that Ida has excellent grades and outstanding strength, but also know that she has thwarted the conspiracy of the mysterious man twice.She stopped Benedict Foley in her first grade, defeated Quirinus Chilo with Harry Potter in her third grade, and protected the Philosopher's Stone.

Not only that, in addition to the text, the newspaper also included a photo of Ada wearing glasses.In the photo, she is staring into the distance, and the sudden smile made many young readers call "Mom, I believe in love again".

If it wasn't for her young age, Ida would probably receive a large number of love letters immediately, the number would not only far exceed Valentine's Day, but would also make Lockhart, who was squatting at the Ministry of Magic, envious.

When the twins found Ada with the newspaper, her first reaction was "Mom, I'm promising", and then she quickly realized that there must be something tricky in it.

The "Daily Prophet" also reported on Welfare, and Ada was mentioned in it, but it was just mentioned briefly, without even mentioning her name, and only used "a student of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft".

But now, not only did he publish his name, but he also mentioned Benedict Welfare and the Sorcerer's Stone.Except for his status as an orphan and the matter of Xiaohuijin District, everything he could mention was mentioned.

If Dumbledore didn't nod in this report, Fudge and the "Daily Prophet" would dare to publish it, and Ada wouldn't believe it!I just don't know, what kind of medicine is sold in Dumbledore's gourd this time, and when is he going to cheat himself again?

Dumbledore, who was reading the newspaper, didn't understand Ada's little thoughts.Dumbledore just felt that Ada had grown up and matured, and with Lockhart's personal demonstration this year, Ada would not be dazzled by these vain honors and become vain.

After all, what could Albus Dumbledore have in mind?

In a word, Ada is famous!Now, among the students at Hogwarts, her fame is second only to Harry Potter, the Boy Who Lived.

===Dividing line===
The streets full of people are just lit up, and people on both sides of the road are coming and going, saying hello to each other and saying a few words of greeting.An owl flew here, and flew into an ordinary, but strange house.

The house is ordinary because it is neither illegal like the Burrow nor grotesque like many wizard's houses.The house is strange because it was built there, and there are owls flying in and out, but the people passing by can't see it, and even the neighbors on the left and right ignore the house.

The interior decoration style of the house was very popular in Europe decades ago. It has not changed after so many years. It seems that the owner of the house seems to be a nostalgic person.

In the living room, which is tastefully furnished and cozy at the same time, a house-elf is flipping through a photo album.In the photo album are photos of a man from childhood to adulthood. If you look carefully, you will find that this man is somewhat similar to Ada.

The owl, which flew in through the open window, was standing on the house-elf's head, pecking at the elf's long ears, as if complaining that the elf had let him fly so far.

The house elf didn't care at all, and unwrapped the letter brought back by the owl. In addition to a reply letter, there was also a squarely folded newspaper clipping in the envelope.The elf spread out the newspaper clippings and carefully read the reports on them. After reading, he stroked the photos on the clippings with his hand. His tennis-ball-sized eyes were full of joy and pride.

Putting the reply letter and newspaper clippings in his hands, the house elf turned around and went to another room. The elf said softly, "Master, there is a letter from the British side, and there is also a clipping, a clipping related to Miss."
