The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 279

Prefects are generally appointed by the principal or the deans and are endowed with special powers and responsibilities.As part of student self-government, prefects can deduct house points from other students, as punishment for breaking the rules, and can even place students in detention.

But under normal circumstances, prefects would not use this power because of the trouble.Point deduction is not just deducted, you need to submit a deduction report, explaining the time, place, person, reason for deducting points, etc.It can be said that the deduction of points was a momentary pleasure, and the report was written to death.

Moreover, other colleges also have prefects. If you deduct points from other colleges, they won't deduct them back?You deduct one point, and I deduct one point. The deductions are not only troublesome, but also hurt feelings.

Therefore, unless it is an extremely special situation, the prefects will not deduct points. This is a customary rule of conduct for prefects.

Ada is not interested in deducting points for other people. What she likes most is that after becoming a prefect, she can have a dedicated special bathroom.

This bathroom on the sixth floor of the castle is specially prepared for the prefects and Quidditch captains. It is said that there is a bathtub as big as a swimming pool!

In addition, the completion of a long-term mission is also something to be happy about. The mission target is the prefect and the president of the student union. Ada is halfway through.After becoming a prefect, will the chairwoman of the female student council be far behind?Although a prefect is not a necessary condition for the selection of the student union chairman, those who have served as prefects will have an advantage.

Looking at the badge in her hand, Ada suddenly felt that she should order some antihypertensive medicine by mail and give it to Professor McGonagall, otherwise she might not be able to hold on.

After the task is completed, the system will naturally issue rewards, but Ada is becoming more and more unable to see through the system, um...she seems to have never seen through the system.The mission reward this time is actually Legilimency, which belongs to the same magical category as Occlumency.

The concept of this kind of magic is very vague, and it is magic used to penetrate people's hearts.

In front of the Legilimency Master, there are almost no secrets to speak of, unless you are a person who is good at Occlumency, or the secret you keep is protected by layers of other magic, such as the Charm of Fidelity.

As far as Ida knew, both Dumbledore and Snape were masters of Legilimency, but the two didn't use this ability to go around snooping on other people's secrets.Dumbledore prefers to give people the leeway to tell the truth, rather than use this horrible magic to spy on others' hearts.

From the initial Occlumency, to the later [Unswerving Commitment], [Try to lie to me], [Directly pointing at people's hearts], to today's Legilimency.Ada's brain can be said to be fully armed, and the safety factor is much stronger than Hogwarts.

Included with the letter was a ticket to King's Cross, and a new list of goods.There are not many things to buy, "Standard Spell Level [-]", "Monster Book of Monsters", and a new Defense Against the Dark Arts book.

Since the day Lockhart was exposed, the "Daily Prophet" has been publishing Hogwarts recruitment notices, but no warrior has dared to challenge this position. After all, who likes to be a consumable!
After studying at Hogwarts for four years, two Defense Against the Dark Arts professors entered Azkaban, and two professors died.Annual throwing professors is not enough to describe the attrition rate of this position.

Among the four professors, Glover Cecil was the one who persisted the longest. Even so, he couldn't persist until the end of the semester.

The two professors who survived despite being imprisoned, Foley and Lockhart, only lasted until April.Judging from the current situation, who still has the confidence to take up this position, and Dumbledore will not provide insurance!
It is estimated that before finding this new professor, Dumbledore must have pulled out how many beards.Moreover, in addition to the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, the headmaster has to recruit a new professor of protection of magical animals.

Professor Kettleburn, who has only one arm and half a leg left, has finally retired.

He once cast a spell on Ash Snake so that Ash Snake could play a worm in the play "Fountain of Luck", but he set the entire auditorium on fire.This is just one of the more famous events in Professor Kettleburn's magnificent life.

Although the old professor, like Hagrid, has a special liking for dangerous magical creatures, and even established a record of 62 check-ups, he is loved by all the teachers and students in the school.

Although Professor Kettleburn had only taught Ida for a little over a year, she still liked this conscientious old professor.

Ada reckoned Graplan would take over the Protection of Magical Beasts class. After all, this witch with short gray hair had substituted for the injured Professor Kettleburn many times.

===Dividing line===
Life in Paris gradually became boring, and Ada began to miss the days at the Burrow and Hogwarts.Now she stays at home all day, either reading a book or in a daze, or just eating and sleeping, sleeping and eating, no different from a house girl.

Although Ada never complained, all of this was still seen by Vader, but she had nothing to do but be anxious.

Not to mention being isolated from the world, but Vader's life is almost like a hermit.Normally, no one would come here to visit her, and she would not go to those pure-blood parties.

This kind of reception, which is used to strengthen relationships and enhance friendship, is useless in Vader's view, and it is impossible to make friends or partners.

In desperation, Henry was arrested by his great-aunt and asked him to take Ida out together instead of always being confined at home.In this way, Ada became Henry's little tail, wherever Henry went, Ada followed.

Soon, Ada got to know Henry's cronies all over, from officials of the Ministry of Magic to street vendors. Henry's friends can be said to be very extensive.Being able to play with Henry, who is out of tune, can also see how different these people are from traditional and conservative wizards.

In their attitude towards Ada, they neither discriminated against her blood nor flattered her because of her identity. They just regarded Ada as Henry's sister.

Ada didn't expect that she would have such a day, and she drew an equal sign with Ron again.

Time never stops, like the waters of the Seine, and August flies by, and Ada will return to England.

This evening, after dinner, Ada took Vida for a walk as usual.

The Champs Elysees is the most beautiful street in the city, even its name is taken from Greek mythology.In addition, this street is also known as Queen's Boulevard.The streets are full of traffic and people, but none of them will affect the grandparents and grandchildren who are walking.

There was a question that had been on Ada's mind for a long time, and she decided to ask it after thinking about it for days.She asked, "Grandma, your relationship with Grindelwald back then..."

"I've been his believer for the rest of my life." Vida said without any hesitation, "The house we live in used to be his stronghold in Paris."

There is nothing to hide, Vader believes that it is his lifetime honor to follow Grindelwald.Similarly, she didn't think that Ada would not be able to accept her identity as a witch.Getting along these days has allowed Vader to have a deeper understanding of his granddaughter.

Listening to Vader's story, Ada also learned more about her grandmother.I also knew Grindelwald from the side, how magnificent this stubborn old man was back then.

And, how did this bad old man waste Vida Rozier's youth! Hing~
"Has Grindelwald never responded to you?" Ada asked cautiously, afraid of touching Vader's heartache.

"He is omnipotent, and no response is the best response for him." Vader said flatly, as if he was talking about someone else's business.

Despite her calm tone, Ada could still see the gloom in her grandmother's eyes.Ada asked again: "Have you ever complained?"

"Silly boy, it's just a woman's youthful and immature mind, so there is nothing to complain about." Vida said pretending to be relaxed, "In the future, you will meet such a person, for him, you will be willing to do anything. "

Seeing that Lao Ge missed his life, more than half a century has passed, and now the French Rose, who was in its prime, is now a wrinkled old man.And in Grindelwald's heart, I'm afraid there is only Dumbledore, a flower in Gaocun!
"It's just a woman's youthful and immature mind. How can it be "greater interests"." Vida spoke in a very soft voice, and was blown away by the evening wind in Paris.
