From Azkaban To Hogwarts

Although he really wanted to be alone, William knew very well that given his current situation, it was best to go to the restaurant and stay with the students.

"William, what's wrong? Your face looks like you've been crushed by a dragon?"

In the restaurant, Adams, who had already sat down, immediately gave William a friendly greeting.

What kind of wonderful metaphor is this?

William looked at Adams angrily, but because of his poor condition, the look he gave was not quite right.

"No way, is it really suppressed by a dragon? I have seen unicorns in the Forbidden Forest - but are there really dragons in the Forbidden Forest?"

Adams, who was prone to misunderstanding, exclaimed.

"So, the greenhouse needs some fresh fertilizer?"

Singed's complaints were still as sharp as ever - William's first reaction in his weak state.

"Shut up, Singed - I'm doing it for your own good. You can't sleep well. I know a few remedies. Applying the mud on your face every day will effectively improve the situation."

Adams had an I-do-it-for-you expression on his face, but if the recipe he mentioned didn't contain fresh dragon dung, William could eat the plate in front of him.

"No need, I don't think there is anything to regret about not having time to enjoy breakfast, but you, the rainy season in October is coming soon, so prepare something to cope with the rainy season in October, it will be a disaster."

There is not a week without rain in October, which is not a good day for herbs. Professor Sprout is old, and there is no doubt who will do the work of getting up in the middle of the night to take care of the precious herbs in the greenhouse.

Adams, who was hit by the ball thrown by himself, looked at Singed with a depressed look - everyone is joking, why did you really stab him?

Singed whistled proudly, he had won this wave.

"Eh? Why haven't you prepared any food today? Did Peeves go to the kitchen to cause trouble again?"

Professor Kettleburn looked at the two bickering people and asked questions while smiling - he often likes to come here recently, claiming that the activity of young people will make him feel much more comfortable, but William seriously doubts that he is doing it to avoid Mai. Professor Ge.

"You shouldn't cause trouble, right? Usually on rainy days he will go to the bathroom to play pranks."

So have you all figured out the rules?

But William suddenly thought of a possibility - in the morning, it seemed that Professor Lockhart had placed an order for a large number of candies for the elves?

Before he could express his conjecture, a large amount of candies suddenly appeared on the originally bare dinner plate.

Yes, the same one William had eaten this morning.

"I couldn't believe it - the first thing in the school lunch was candy."

Singed stared at the plate in a daze for three seconds, then grabbed one out.

"It tastes pretty good, Professor William, would you like to try it?"

William was obedient. As for Adams, he had already taken one and stared at the wrapping paper - Lockhart showed his white teeth on it, and his smile was extremely bright.

"Excellent idea - if you ask me, you should have some youthful energy, and don't always imitate Minerva with a straight face."

Professor Kettleburn smiled and gave life lessons to the young professors - if he were not still an intern this year, William felt that his words would be more convincing.

"By the way, speaking of Minerva, I suddenly remembered what happened in the morning."

Professor Kettleburn patted his head with his remaining hand, "Actually, people from the Daily Prophet also came and tried to conduct an exclusive interview about Lockhart's club, but the reporter's request for an interview was rejected by Mai. Professor Gerard refused, but she still reluctantly agreed to Professor Lockhart’s request for other activities. Today is a very lively day.”

Daily Prophet? Is it such a big fuss?

Also, professor, do you know all the gossip in the castle? You are almost retired!

"I couldn't agree more - look over there."

Before William could ask questions, Professor Singed had already discovered the blind spot - following his fingers, William saw a pink robe.

There is no doubt that there is only one professor who can wear such sexy clothes in the castle.

Professor Lockhart.

"Everyone, although the weather is not very friendly, there is no doubt that today is a warm day!"

"Yes, that's right, I, Professor Lockhart, a recipient of the Order of Merlin, Third Class, an honorary member of the Anti-Dark Arts Alliance, a Defense Against the Dark Arts five-time winner of the Wizarding Weekly's Most Charming Smile Award - okay , the professor of the magic self-defense class, made a very important decision today!"

"That's right - Lockhart is your troubleshooting club, tonight. What are you waiting for?"

William suddenly felt his arm being pulled down, it was Singed.

"It started in the morning. Adams has been obsessed with it all morning. In the morning, I heard Professor Lockhart chattering to everyone about the letters he had received from students. I just..."

William patted him on the shoulder and gave him a look that said you were asking for blessings.

After all, in addition to being a professor, Professor Lockhart is also a legendary adventurer and best-selling author. If he likes to show off, it's okay. Just treat it for Adams' sake and tolerate it, just like William's roommate back then. , when the pigs and dogs were fighting, they didn’t finally choose to compromise, so they started fighting again?

However, William couldn't help it soon - after Professor Lockhart finished his speech.

A group of dwarfs in formal attire came over with musical instruments, and their unpleasant singing made William suddenly understand what was a more difficult time than the days in Azkaban - while sitting in Azkaban, there were dwarfs singing.

‘If he is still in prison, I will definitely let the big guy whip this newcomer! ’

He thought viciously, and then his whole body felt lighter - is this the sequelae of fighting fire with fire? Or has the time for the sequelae passed?

William closed his eyes and began to think hard.

Thanks to the knowledge he gained during this period, he quickly had a vague guess.

'Is this an acknowledgment of good memories from the past to offset the mental impact of black magic? ’

It's unknown - the research on black magic is never mentioned openly, and even wizards who are proficient in it will hide it quietly.

When William opened his eyes again, the horrific torture was finally over.

"I bet Professor Lockhart didn't ask for those dwarfs to be good at singing when he hired them."

"No, I suspect that he didn't pay the balance last time. This is the team that came to collect the payment."

William quickly retorted.

Even Adams, who had always supported Professor Lockhart, couldn't help but nodded - the singing was indeed too unpleasant.

The professors at the table also began to whisper. It seemed that the opening ceremony was indeed a failure.

The only exception is Professor Kettleburn. His expression now has the same hazy feeling in memories.

"Professor Kettleburn?"

Adams shouted softly, wondering if the professor also had a story with a friend who had a bad singing voice.

"It's been so long that I've forgotten how long it's been since I heard something like an opera in Hogwarts - the last time I heard it, Albus wasn't the Headmaster!"
