A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts: Warren

The Exclusive Wand Academy is located in the northeast corner of the floating island. In addition to the normal teaching facilities and buildings, there is a group of statues in the school that are more distinctive. people. The most notable of these is a wand-wielding Niffler named Valen.

Speaking of Valen, this might be the most famous Sniff in the academy, even Fantastic Beasts. Because at the beginning of the establishment of the school, Varen cooperated and recorded a batch of "teaching videos". Thousands of wizards who are not sensitive to magic power learned the functions and applicability of the exclusive magic wand in the same way as a sniffing wand. Learned.

"I've seen Valen a few times," said Winnie Valentine in class, "and it has done things I've never thought of before with a special wand, which has greatly expanded the usage scenarios of the special wand and value."

"There are no less than ten world-wide research topics that have been developed around or inspired by it, and the most influential one is the 'Magic Power Reactivation Theory'. The practice was reactivated, and it became the same as a normal wizard! There are rumors that Valen has got rid of the restriction of the exclusive wand, of course, it has not been confirmed..."

"What if it is confirmed?" A student asked.

"It means that it may be the smartest Sniff ever, at least beyond the 12,000 low-magic wizards who participated in the research in a broad sense... Well, if you don't mind, let's continue with the class. By the way By the way, Warren also knows more words than you. He wrote an article for the Daily Prophet. Although it was rejected, the article was later published in The Quibbler. You may have heard of it. 'Diary of Life on Mars'."

In the bamboo forest behind the college lived a nest of Niuxiu, brothers and sisters who were born in the same country as Warren. Scientists in white coats would come over every week, and they would exchange small shiny golden objects for them. Ten to twenty minutes of research time, but unfortunately these snuffers didn't show any superhuman intelligence-except that they were very good at playing crackling and exploding cards. Or something else.

Today, two unexpected guests came to the school.

"Albus, I have a secret to share with you." Scorpius said, the two of them stepped on the wet soil, and crisp birdsong rang out from the bamboo forest.

"I'll wait for you," said Albus.

"Dad has been a little disturbed these days—" "Oh," Albus said softly, with his head down and his toes on the ground, "I think it's because of my dad that he raided Malfoy Manor... "It's nothing to do with that," Scorpius said, "it's a guy named 'Not', and Dad has been upset since he heard he was arrested by the Ministry of Magic for an investigation and his home was searched... I'm in Found this in Dad's office."

He produced a small gold timepiece, and Albus stared blankly at the delicate hourglass set into the center of the timepiece.

"What is this?"

Scorpius took a deep breath, "Time-Turner."

"Time—what?"

"It allows people to travel through time," Scorpius said excitedly, "but the former Minister of Magic suspended all research, and the information of a department I can't name was sealed. These are all from my father's book I saw it in . I guess, if I can find and defeat the person who put the curse on my mother, my mother's illness will be cured."

"But we—" Albus counted his fingers, "five years old."

"Yeah," said Scorpius despondently, "we can make an agreement, wait until we have the ability—for example, ten years later, and then use this thing to travel to the past and find the one who cursed the Greengrass family." Defeat him."

"It's a deal," said Albus.

With **** hooked together, both of them giggled contentedly, and then they heard bursts of "crawling" and "twittering" voices in the distance, not like people, but like Some kind of magical animal.

Albus and Scorpius exchanged a look, moving cautiously towards the voice. Parting the bushes that were very tall for them, there was a hollow in the field of vision, and the two opened their mouths in surprise. They seem to have broken into the sniffing nest, a dozen sniffing are playing on the field full of bamboo leaves, some are smaller, with pink and gray fluff on their bodies, and a small table is placed in the center (should be Is it a table?), three snuffers are playing cards, and one of them has a huge stack of sequins next to it.

"It's a wizard card." Albus said, staring at the phantom emerging from the table.

"The game is fighting the Dark Lord, which has been popular in recent years. You see, two against one." Scorpius said.

The two lay down on the ground and looked at it with relish. They were only five years old, and their thoughts were far less complicated, "The Dark Lord's card is really good!" "Which one?" "The one with the smoothest fur, like velvet satin ’” Albus said, suddenly something was wrong, and the light above his head seemed to become brighter.

The two raised their heads, and a sniffling cub that had just woken up pushed aside the leaves, yawned halfway, and they stared, no, to be precise, staring at the glowing hands of Scorpius small timer.

"Oops," Scorpius said.

"How?" asked Albus.

"Run!"

At the same time, the sniffing cubs yelled, and the sniffing cubs stopped fighting and looked to one side in unison, including the ones that drilled the hole. They heard right, right? Baby ran over by himself? All the Nifflers—except Varen—have bright eyes, and they are poor, especially when Varen comes to visit.

Varen turned his head unhappily, it is about to win again, this is its one hundred and fortieth... How many times (?) has it won two of its younger brothers, it feels too much to loot them all. It's wonderful, after the robbery, we will hold a treasure hunting contest, and release the water appropriately. The two younger brothers are stupid, and they don't hold grudges or fights.

In sight, two children who were not as tall as the bushes staggered uphill, and one of them was holding something that flickered in his hand.

Is there really a baby? Varen tilted his head thinking, looking familiar.

Albus and Scorpius ran a certain distance, panting, but the slight trembling of branches and the sound of bamboo leaves behind them not only did not disappear, but got closer, Albus caught a glimpse of a black Shadow overtook them.

"What to do?"

"Climb the tree!"

The two didn't have time to think about whether this method was feasible, but neither of them wanted to run down, so they picked a holly that was about a foot thick and covered with scabs, and pulled each other to climb up. By the time Albus climbed to the nearest branch with Scorpius' help, he was too tired to speak.

Scorpius poked Albus, and they both looked down.

A dozen of Nifflers covered with black fluff were watching them intently under the tree, and then a particularly conspicuous Niffler separated from the crowd and stood under the tree swaggeringly, looking up at Albus and Si Kopi.

The special Niffler was of course Varun, staring at the Time-Turner in Scorpius' hand, with its flat mouth open wide.

"They want the Time-Turner!" Scorpius yelled.

"Don't worry," said Albus, "I have traces on me, Dad will come and find us. In theory, just hide in the trees until night—"

"I'm not as optimistic as you," Scorpius said, "For example, I don't know very well, will Xixiu climb trees?"

Albus was confused by this question, he didn't think about it at all, he said hesitantly: "Shouldn't—" The next second he saw a brown-red Snuffling cub shaking The chubby figure climbed up the tree, he immediately shut his mouth, and the expression on his face became terrified.

Varen slapped that Nixie and handed it a piece of candy. Then it made a thoughtful expression, and after a while, it took out a sound-transmitting mirror from its pocket. A few snuffers came over curiously, staring at the shiny mirror with bright eyes. He picked up a small wooden stick, which seemed ready to be swung at any moment.

The sound transmission mirror was connected, and Varen chirped and hung up the sound transmission mirror with satisfaction. After finishing all this, Varen stared at the two children on the tree in a daze. A little bored... It took out a can of candy, and Albus and Scorpius on the tree swallowed.

……

"Here." Scorpius said, grabbing the air nimbly, and handed a candy to Albus.

"No, it's your turn," said Albus. He looked helplessly at the Xixiu under the tree, that Xixiu was so hateful, it threw candy into the sky one after another, he didn't even pay attention to the man who appeared not far away, it seemed to appear out of nowhere, Both startled when he spoke.

"You can come down, it's good for everyone." Felix said.

Albus almost fell from the tree, Scorpius was stuck in his throat by the sugar in his mouth, and blushed with anxiety, Felix pointed out his hand, his expression quickly eased, Albus While patting Scorpius on the back, he asked, "Who are you?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce myself. Felix Hype." Felix said, swipe his finger towards the holly tree, "The common problem of famous people is that they subconsciously think that everyone knows me. "

Of course Albus and Scorpius had heard the name before, but they didn't realize it, but they couldn't care less about being surprised. It became smooth, like a slide, and then the two of them slid down uncontrollably. When they approached the ground, hundreds of branches grew wildly, intertwined with each other to form a bench. Felix sat on one side, lowering his head to talk to Varen.

"Oh... yeah... okay."

After talking with each other, Qiqi looked at Albus and Scorpius who were a little uneasy. Albus dared to ask, "Hello? Are you really Hap-er, Professor? Sir? Headmaster?"

"Call me sir or professor, Albus," said Felix quietly.

"You know me?" Albus asked in surprise.

"Yeah," Felix was suddenly a little embarrassed: "But you may not have any impression. I got married the year before last, and I was cleaning the trench last year... But anyway, I am no stranger to you." He looked at Scorpius , "I gave a wand when Draco and Astoria got married."

Scorpius' eyes widened.

"That snake wood wand with a basilisk nerve as the core!"

"That's right, I was optimistic about unicorn hair at first, but Mr. Ollivander said no, so I thought I also collected some basilisk materials... I failed a few times in the middle, and I don't need to guess why. But None of that matters." Felix said, "So can you show me the little timer you have? Seems better than the one the Knotts hid... probably the last two that got lost."

Scorpius hid his hands behind his back vigilantly, tears welling in his eyes.

"You want to take it away? No, I can't give it to you—"

"Well, you can keep it for now." Felix said thoughtfully: "Under normal circumstances, I should know about it in three days, and my wife will relay it... But it's hard to say, maybe I didn't read it Yes. I didn't pay much attention to it, and was distracted by another matter..." He paused, "Draco once asked me for help, but I was not sure at the time, and now it's time to solve this problem."

Albus and Scorpius looked at him puzzled.

Felix blew into the palm of his hand. Then countless small runes spread out like petals, and pieced together a mirror in the air. But only the frame, the mirror part is empty. Then Felix rummaged in his pockets and pulled out a thumb-sized glass bottle, which he shook slightly, and Albus and Scorpius saw that the bottle contained a few wisps of golden mist.

"Recently, the consumption is a bit high, and it's hard to save."

Talking to himself, Felix unscrewed the cork, picked out a wisp of golden mist with his little finger, and bounced it towards the mirror frame floating in the air. The golden mist quickly filled the gaps in the mirror as if it were alive, and then the tiny rune symbols illuminated layer by layer from the outer edge to the inside, and the golden mirror surface became smooth after a few seconds.

"Let me think... Astoria... No, it should be the Greengrass family." Felix said seriously.

The picture in the mirror kept flickering, and the figures and space were changing rapidly, making people dizzy, like reading a dictionary with small and dense handwriting while wearing a pair of dirty glasses full of handprints.

Felix took the time to explain to the two children: "I don't know how to travel through time, the cost is too high, and I don't want others to interfere with time, but there are many things I can do, such as the issue of the Greengrass family curse , In fact, there is no need to go back to the past, just present everything that happened in front of my eyes... I couldn’t do this kind of thing in the first few years, the energy alone was enough to cause headaches. I found it.”

Albus, Scorpius, and Varun all looked into the mirror. The image in the mirror was fixed in one place, and the picture was slightly clearer. It looked like a thin, pale man with a mouse whisker The gloomy man, he was chanting words, the blood left along the nostrils, twisted and solidified in the air, and turned into strange and beating black symbols amidst the sound of incantations. The picture was a bit scary, but Felix watched it with relish, and kept nodding while watching.

"So that's the case. It's similar to the curse in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class at Hogwarts. It's not aimed at specific people, but the Greengrass family. As long as the blood of this family is still there, the curse will not Demise, release the accumulated curse power every few decades. It is much easier to know the principle."

"Much easier?" Scorpius asked blankly.

"For example, you can design a magic to make the curse think that the Greengrass family has died out naturally... Of course, this is just an example. In fact, I have a better way." The mirror shattered, and Felix carefully removed the strand The obviously lightened golden mist was put into the glass bottle, and then got busy.

Varen looked at it for a while, and took out various snacks from his pocket to distribute to the surrounding Nixiu and the two children. Albus and Scorpius realized that they were already hungry, and they ate heartily . "What's that?" Scorpius asked, pointing to a jar, and he seemed to see the tentacles wriggling.

"Don't touch it, it's a pile of cockroaches." Albus glanced at it and said with experience. Scorpius looked at him strangely, and Albus said reluctantly: "If you also have a brother who likes to play tricks."

"Not much hope," said Scorpius wistfully, and then became cheerful, "but maybe I will have another brother, or sister."

"It's over." Felix said, snatching a piece of lava cake from Varen's hand and stuffing it into his mouth, "You're welcome, Varen has a Honeydukes lifetime discount card, not even me." Lun yelled twice in dissatisfaction, didn't you use my name to do it?

"The curse...disappeared? Mom is alright?" Scorpius asked with staring eyes. He tried to move his arms, hoping to experience a feeling similar to 'a light body', but nothing happened.

Felix nodded, then shook his head again~IndoMTL.com~The curse has indeed disappeared, but Astoria's body still needs to recuperate for a while, hoping to catch up with the World Cup. Well, you've been out for too long, it's time to go back. He waved his hand, and Albus and Scorpius disappeared in front of his eyes.

Felix was lying on the holly wood bench, fiddling with the glass bottle containing the golden time energy with his fingers, his breathing slowed down, and his body gradually became transparent. As if separated by something. Varun picked up a small stone from the ground and threw it at him.

Felix rolled his eyes.

"Hermione bought you completely, in fact, you can replace it with candy, and I will feel better..."

Varen immediately took out a brown wig from his pocket, put it on his head, and then leaned forward, looking like someone. It folded its hands in front of its chest, sneered (if possible) and thought: Huh, despair, big devil, our alliance was established more than ten years ago, it was established when we walked around the castle under the moon Strong friendship, nothing can destroy, cannot...

Varen turned his neck, sniffing the air.

"Deep-sea fish, some species may have never been discovered, so I don't know how it tastes."

"Gudong." Valen swallowed, feeling that the unbreakable friendship had been challenged, and then there was the sound of swallowing saliva in unison, and a group of snuffers looked over eagerly...
