A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 532: Press conference

The day passed peacefully. The next day, the Ministry of Magic held a press conference. The Minister of Magic, Amelia Bones, was the spokesperson herself. She stood on the steps, and below was a group of reporters and photographers, dotted with people who came to watch the excitement. She looked at Kingsley, who nodded slightly at her.

Ms. Burns announced calmly:

"The rumors about Mr. Felix Heap's acquisition of the Elder Wand, which was spread in the newspapers, have been proven to be false. I personally checked his wand, and that wand is not the rumored elderberry , This is already very telling. As we all know, Mr. Haipu is not only extraordinary in the fields of ancient runes and Muggle studies, but also a writer with a childlike innocence. He once brought back to life the best-selling comic book "Little Wizard Mi "The Adventures of Ke Qi" was written by him, and when he conceived this masterpiece, he referred to a large number of works of the same type, and naturally, the spirit of Beedle, the poet who has influenced countless little wizards, was also integrated into it."

"You mean to say that Mr. Happer named his wand the Elder Wand because of his admiration for Beedle the poet?"

"Exactly."

"Ma'am, are you denying the existence of the Elder Wand?"

"Maybe it really exists, but it's definitely not in the hands of Mr. Haip now, and it's not within the scope of our discussion today." Ms. Burns replied.

"How did you check, if he was faking it?"

"I won't doubt my eyes." Ms. Burns said coldly: "Next."

"What if he has a second wand?"

Bones looked at the speaker from under his monocle: "I don't remember inviting you, which newspaper reporter are you?"

"Ahem, I'm here to travel, to travel." The bald man who asked the question said in a sarcastic way.

"Very good," Ms. Burns said calmly, "We will check your entry approval documents after the press conference, otherwise you will be prepared to pay the fine."

She cleared her throat and continued:

"Things may be more complicated than imagined, and I can reveal a piece of news: The editor-in-chief of the "Daily Prophet" who approved this article is suspected of being under the Imperius Curse, which shows that there may be a conspiracy behind the matter. In the current situation, there is reason to suspect that it is related to Voldemort and his evil gang."

The press conference with the red carpet turned into silence, as if someone had cast a spell.

"Ahem, are you sure?"

"I use the words 'likely' and 'possible,'" Ms. Burns said sternly, "but if you're well-informed, this article has appeared in a dozen countries, This can't be a coincidence!"

"I personally despise the framers, because the people behind the scenes can't even tell the most basic fact, that is, Mr. Haipu's own research field is ancient rune, which is very prosperous in Britain at this stage The upsurge was driven by him alone.

Although Mr. Haipu is not good at words, he still feels very sad about this behavior of putting the cart before the horse. So he entrusted me to hold an exchange meeting in the village of Hogsmeade on the last weekend of October—that is, on October 27th—"

At this time, another reporter raised questions.

"Why did it take so long? As long as he stood up and said that he had never held the Elder Wand, wouldn't it be fine?" Rita Skeeter's eyes flickered, and her question attracted a lot of approval.

"Because it's just a trivial matter!" Ms. Burns interrupted her. "Compared with the promotion of ancient runes, the Elder Wand is worthless in Mr. Hape's eyes. This is the difference between you and him—"

Rita Skeeter glared at her viciously.

Others recorded excitedly, the quill seemed to be smoking, and the white light of the flashlight kept flashing.

"Moreover, it must be mentioned that Dumbledore, who is the president of the International Federation of Wizards, chief mage of the Wizengamot, and headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, has submitted an application to the International Federation of Wizards for this As an international event, the exchange will invite well-known wizards, including experts in ancient texts from all over the world, and principals of magic schools in various countries.”

The reporters were stunned. The feather pens of various colors hanging in the air also seemed to be in bad contact, and fell to the ground one after another.

Big news.

Rita Skeeter snatched up the green feather of the quill, with an expression of great emotion on her face, which was justified by her promise.

For the next few minutes, only the excited voice of Quill was left.

"...All outsiders must report in advance, and the scope of activities is only limited to the Hogsmeade village. Violators will receive severe punishment..."

"Can you tell me about the exchange meeting?"

"What can be revealed so far is that in addition to showing his own research results, Mr. Haipu will reluctantly find time to accept anyone's challenge——"

"Wait! Challenge?"

Reporters smell the key words.

"That's right." Ms. Burns said, she looked at the excited unfamiliar faces on the field-they were obviously foreign wizards, and felt pity for no reason in her heart. Only she and a handful of Wizengamot wizards had ever seen Felix Hemp fight Voldemort.

Since you are so happy, you will not refuse to sign the certificate of life and death, will you? She calmly continued to speak:

"The event is expected to last three days..."

"The Ministry of Magic will actively negotiate with the Ministry of Magic of various countries. At that time, a live broadcast will be adopted, and Future World will provide technical support..."

The press conference ended amidst excited eyes.

When the news reached Hogwarts, it was already the next morning. The students were exchanging information with each other in a hurry at the dinner table. There's some big news." Then rush to class.

In the next few days, there was a restless atmosphere in the school, and this restlessness was reflected in the following classes. The courageous students couldn't help asking about related topics.

"Professor Black, who is better, you or Professor Haipu?" A very unpleasant student asked an unpleasant question.

Sirius stared at him, "This kind of comparison is meaningless. In addition, it is forbidden to provoke the relationship between professors, so five points will be deducted from Gryffindor."

Harry, Ron and Hermione grinned.

It was difficult to hide their behavior from Sirius. He regretted telling them that he had been beaten by Felix. At this moment, he was a little annoyed and said with a dark face: "Since you asked, I just can Answer a question like: How do you feel you are better than Aurors?"

"We can try." Holding his wand, he looked at everyone maliciously, "Take a real feel. Aurors have a lot of opportunities to get in touch with combat. Unlike your play house, it is a real battle. Opponent They are also often cunning dark wizards."

"Even if you master the same magic, the performance of those who have duel training is completely different from those who have not. Furthermore, those who have actual combat experience and those who have not are also completely different. This gap is reflected in the performance of duels. In terms of understanding, those tiny details.”

"Let's just talk about me, I may not be much better than you, but even with the same spell, the power is controlled at the same level, and the gap is still quite large..." He paused, making a provocative gesture , the meaning is already evident.

"So—who will come first?"

Harry was eager to try, but Sirius pretended not to see, he still remembered the grudge, "Sabini, you come." He ordered someone, and Blaise Zabini stood up confidently, his Friends whistle loudly. "Harry, you start calling."

Sirius and Blaise stood facing each other, staring into each other's faces. When Harry yelled "Go", the two moved at the same time, Sirius flicked his wrist, and Blaise's wand flew out immediately.

"A small trick, but if you hold the wand tightly, the power of the spell can only make your arm slightly tilted, but it is just right here." Sirius said, "Again."

Brace picked up his wand unconvinced, this time holding it firmly in his palm.

"Go!"

The two raised their wands together——

"Expelliarmus!" Blaise yelled aggressively, but Sirius hit him first.

"Casting spells silently always makes you one step ahead." Sirius tilted his head and said.

"I will say the same spell as you this time, let's do it again," he said.

Bryce hesitated for a moment, picked up the wand from the ground, and looked at Sirius cautiously.

After a moment of silence.

"Disarm!" "Disarm!" The two shouted at the same time ~IndoMTL.com~ Only this time Sirius lowered his head suddenly and quickly dodged the spell, while Blaise was firmly hit , the wand has already flown out of his hand countless times.

"Even if two people are chanting the spell at the same time, I still have a chance to dodge the spell, or use the wand to pick up the spell. In short, there are many ways." Sirius said: "But even if you read it from textbooks or storybooks, Even after practicing in private, you may still not remember to use it in actual combat, or it may not work well."

"Your professor last year, Alastor Moody, I have dealt with him, and he has a saying that sounds good, always be vigilant. Of course I don't want you to learn from him, but at least, you should know the danger What to do when you come, if you can’t learn it, remember it with your body.”

…

In the dead of night, Felix spread out the new version of the Marauder's Map, and the lines of Hogwarts Castle and the Forbidden Forest intertwined and sprung up like mushrooms after rain. His index finger lightly tapped an inconspicuous corner. In an instant, lights and shadows flickered, clouds and mist swirled, the original pattern quickly disappeared, and a new path extended from the corner of Hogwarts Castle, winding and twisting, until a new location appeared.

It was a small village of cottages and shops with many familiar names: Ambrose Froome at Honeydukes, Puddiffe at Lady Puddiffe's Tea House, Ross at The Three Broomsticks Murta, Zonko from Zonko's Joke Shop, and the bartender at the Pig's Head... Aberforth Dumbledore.

To be honest, Felix was really taken aback when he first saw the name.

At this moment, he lowered his head to overlook Hogsmeade's name with the aid of the dim light—

"Let me find out, who are the strangers who appear, and who are stupid enough to wander around Hogwarts?"
