Hogwarts Crawler

Professor Dumbledore just glanced in the direction of Harry and the others, and continued:

"Before everyone enjoys dinner, I have something I have to tell you, it's very important - our school has welcomed some Dementors from Azkaban, they are sent by the Ministry of Magic to perform official duties, I believe everyone already knows, because they just searched the Hogwarts Express."

When Professor Dumbledore said this, the smile on his face had disappeared, replaced by seriousness and imperceptible dissatisfaction with the Ministry of Magic.

"They will be stationed at various entrances to the school, so no one is allowed to leave the school without permission during this period. Because no tricks, gimmicks, or disguises can fool Dementors - even the invisibility cloak."

Professor Dumbledore deliberately added an emphasis on the invisibility cloak:

"The nature of Dementors makes it impossible for them to understand your excuses and pleas for mercy, so I solemnly remind everyone present not to give them a reason to hurt you. I hope that the prefects and our newly elected male and female student union presidents can ensure that no student will conflict with Dementors."

Unlike Professor Dumbledore's instructions in Adam's first year at Hogwarts, few people have been to the corridor on the fourth floor, but everyone has seen the Dementors just now, so the atmosphere in the hall is very depressing.

Professor Dumbledore paused and looked in Adam's direction:

"I have finished warning you all. Now let's talk about something pleasant. I have received news that Mr. Adam Reed's chocolate has played a good comforting role after everyone encountered the Dementors. Let's thank him for his efforts together."

Applause suddenly broke out in the hall, and the Slytherin table rarely discounted the applause for other colleges.

There is no way. When Dementors spread despair, they will not discriminate because of their colleges.

However, Adam's attention was not on the students at this time, because he saw Senior Newt in the teacher's seat!

"I believe he did not think about the return when he did this, but as the headmaster of Hogwarts, I think the cost of these chocolates should be borne by the school."

Anyway, it was the school board that paid for it, and perhaps the Ministry of Magic could reimburse it again. Professor Dumbledore did not feel any pressure when he said this, and even wanted to add part of his own candy bill.

Adam nodded to Professor Dumbledore, understanding what he meant: We'll discuss how to report the bill when the time comes!

Professor Dumbledore blinked to show that he had received it, and then stretched out his hand to the teacher's seat:

"Next, I am honored to introduce to you the two new professors who have joined our teaching team this year."

As soon as this sentence fell, warm applause rang out in the auditorium - mainly from Hufflepuff.

"First, it's Professor Scamander. After Professor Kettleburn retires, he has happily agreed to take over the Care of Magical Creatures class for a year."

As soon as the voice fell, the applause became even more enthusiastic. The applause and cheers from Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw almost shook the ceiling of the auditorium down.

Oh my God! Senior Newt/Newt Scamander! The living/author of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them"!

Newt, who stood up to greet everyone, didn't know when to sit down, so he could only stand there and nod to everyone without raising his head.

"Okay, okay, everyone, be quiet."

Professor Dumbledore had to use the Loudspeaker Charm to calm everyone down, and emphasized that due to various reasons, Professor Scamander could only teach for one year, but this only slightly reduced everyone's enthusiasm.

"Next is Professor Lupin. Due to last year's accident, our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is vacant again. Professor Lupin took on this responsibility without fear of danger."

Professor Lupin, who stood up and nodded to everyone, heard this, and his smile froze slightly.

Why doesn't this sound auspicious?

However, thinking about his previous living standard and the salary of a Hogwarts professor, and Professor Dumbledore's promise that the school would contract his wolfsbane potion for a year, Professor Lupin still maintained a smile on his face very professionally.

Professor Lupin did not have the mass base of Newt, and everyone's applause was a little sparse, which seemed a bit tragic in contrast, but Professor Lupin did not seem to care much.

On the contrary, Newt looked apologetic and quietly clapped louder.

Professor Lupin responded with a friendly smile.

"Well, I have said everything I want to say. You can enjoy your dinner~"

As Professor Dumbledore finished speaking, a golden plate filled with food appeared on the long table., a series of sighs came from the Hufflepuff table.

"What's wrong?"

One freshman couldn't help but look at the senior next to him. The food on the table was obviously rich?

"No, you don't understand..."

The second-year Hufflepuff sighed. Did they hold back for a whole holiday just for these fishy barbecues? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look in Adam's direction eagerly.

After dinner, it was rare for the summer to be so cold, Adam and his friends planned to return to the long-missed dormitory to cook a hot pot, but Adam was kidnapped by Professor Snape halfway.

Making a "wait for me" gesture to everyone, Adam looked at Professor Snape:

"Professor, what do you want to talk to me about?"

"I remember you can make wolfsbane potion?"

After Professor Snape walked into the office, he threw his cloak and sat down, looking at Adam, not waiting for his answer:

"A professor needs this this year, one bottle per month, are you interested in this order?"

"..."

There are so many complaints that Adam didn't know where to start.

First of all, about a certain professor... There are only so many professors in Hogwarts. If they were not used in previous years but are used this year, they must be new professors.

There are two new professors this year, one of whom is Newt Scamander, who is almost impossible for Hufflepuffs not to know. Professor Snape, you might as well just say Professor Lupin's name.

Secondly, Adam's store doesn't sell everything, at least the business of potions...

"The money for the wolfsbane potion will be paid by the school board. Considering that there are few stable sales channels for this kind of potion in the market, it can be sold at a 70% premium. As for the materials, I will give them to you."

Emmm, in fact, it's not that potions can't be sold. The main consideration is that both the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor and the Potions professor have this demand. One wants to drink it and the other doesn't want to boil it. How can the considerate Badger sit idly by?

"No problem!"

Adam agreed immediately, and then thought about it:

"Are there any additional requirements?"

Professor Snape narrowed his eyes, put his hands on his chest and raised his chin:

"For example?"

"For example, do you need to make some restrictions on the taste?"

Adam had an expression of "I'm really busy":

"Because I usually have to research new dishes, I may accidentally add something when I brew potions, making the taste of the potions a little strange... If necessary, I can take time to brew these wolfsbane potions separately."

Professor Snape showed an interested expression:

"No need, you will take elective courses in your third year this year, and time is tight. I believe that as long as the efficacy of the medicine is not affected, the professor will not be too harsh on such a small issue."

After a pause, Professor Snape took out a key and took out a golden potion bottle less than half the size of a palm from his locked cabinet.

"If you feel stressed by schoolwork, you must take a break."

It can be seen that Professor Snape is not very good at caring for people directly. This sentence was dry and unnatural, but Adam obviously didn't care about this formality.

Carefully taking the bottle of Felixir, Adam couldn't help but sigh that Professor Snape had spent a lot of money to vent his anger.

"Don't worry, professor. In order to ensure the efficacy of the medicine, I will definitely prepare enough wolfsbane potion for that professor. I hope he won't mind drinking a few more bottles at a time."

Professor Snape's mouth twitched unnaturally twice, and finally said slowly:

"I think... he will definitely not mind."
