Hogwarts Outsider Chapter 53: The vice principal who disappeared quietly

The return of Headmaster Gellert Grindelwald seemed to give Hogwarts a shot in the arm.

The panic and flustered atmosphere on campus almost disappeared in a short period of time. Instead, it was the sense of order that had always existed in Hogwarts.

Professor Grindelwald told everyone the ins and outs of the attack; everyone was no longer afraid. Professor Grindelwald told everyone that Hogwarts will be safe in the future, so Hogwarts will definitely not be in any danger anymore...

All in all, almost overnight, Hogwarts was back on track.

……

And Matthew Wakefield's life has returned to its former peace.

The students around were no longer afraid, and rarely discussed those attacks.

And his life has returned to what it was before, the common room, auditorium, classroom and library, four points and one line life.

In addition, he reduced the number of times he went to the Room of Requirement; unless it was a truly special situation, he would usually choose to go to the library...Because of Professor Slughorn's "warning" that night, he felt that he had to go to the library as soon as possible. Probably stayed away from that book.

Even if it's just "contact" in one room, it's better to have as little as possible.

And, as promised by Principal Grindelwald and them, indeed, there have been no more attacks.

The culprit who caused three consecutive attacks, that "blood-sucking" monster... seemed to be directly intimidated by Principal Grindelwald's speech in the auditorium at that time, and no longer dared to act rashly.

At first, everyone was quite scared, but after several days of silence... the students of Hogwarts also recovered their nature.

And Principal Greenwald did not break his promise, he still stayed at Hogwarts, and he hardly left in the recent period.

Matthew can be seen talking and laughing with Professor Sprout, Professor Flitwick and Professor Slughorn in the guest seat of the auditorium every breakfast, lunch and dinner.

According to the descriptions of some senior students, this kind of thing is actually very rare...Professor Grindelwald in the past few years has always been a busy person, and usually rarely stays in school, except for the opening banquet, Halloween dinner, Christmas dinner and other special occasions.

Probably affected by the previous attack.

However, it has to be said that Hogwarts was able to get back on track in a very short time, and it was also related to the frequent haunts of Professor Grindelwald.

……

However, corresponding to Principal Grindelwald, Vice-Principal Professor Vita Rozier has never appeared.

This is not in line with her long-standing habits.

It was another Friday afternoon, the wind was howling outside the castle, and it was raining hard.

The corridors and classrooms were too dark, so we had to light more torches and lanterns.

Matthew habitually held the textbook and walked into the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom with his head down.

He raised his head, and then he was slightly startled——

The teacher on the podium is not Professor Rozier, but the Transfiguration teacher, Professor Troka.

"Okay, everyone is almost here!" Professor Troka glanced at the students present and said, "Our course can probably start."

One hand was raised high.

"What's the matter, Miss Granger?" Professor Troka called the name of the child who raised his hand.

"Where's Professor Rozier?" Hermione Granger hurriedly stood up and asked hastily.

"Professor Rozier is injured. Her courses will be taken care of by Professor Slughorn, Professor Travers and me for the time being, and the first-year courses will be handed over to me." Professor Troka did not Angry, but replied calmly.

Matthew frowned, and he quickly raised his hand.

"Mr. Wakefield?" Professor Troka nodded again.

Matthew also stood up: "Professor Rozier was injured? Is it related to the attack that Miss Adams and Mr. Carlo encountered?"

While speaking, the image of Professor Rozier walking with a limp that night appeared again in Matthew's mind.

"The specific situation may have this factor." Professor Troka replied calmly: "I'm sorry, I can't reveal too much..."

"So... when will she come back?" Matthew continued to ask.

"It should take a while, maybe a month, I can't guarantee it." Professor Troka said.

"Okay, thank you, Professor." Matthew sat down again.

Hermione Granger, who was still standing there, said nervously: "Then the course paper assigned by Professor Rozier in the last class, which we need to complete within two weeks... "

"You can wait for Professor Rozier to come back and give it to her. Anyway, I don't think I'm responsible for this." Professor Troka said with a smile.

"Great!" There was a burst of cheers from under the podium~IndoMTL.com~.

"Oh, don't." Hermione said with a look of disappointment, "I've finished writing!"

Matthew frowned. He had already finished writing that paper, but he was not worried about this.

The returning Grindelwald, the quietly disappearing vice principal, and the sudden cessation of attacks...

Is there a connection between these three?

"Now, we have officially started class..." Professor Troka said while flipping through his textbook on the podium, "Please turn to page 69 of your "Dark Magic: Self-Defense Guide"... "

They had a very enjoyable Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

Professor Troka seems to have done some research on this aspect, at least more than enough to teach first-year students.

Moreover, the atmosphere in his class is much more cheerful, while Professor Rozier's class has always been a bit depressing.

……

When the get out of class bell rang, everyone packed up their things and walked out the door, Matthew was among them, but—

"Matthew, wait a minute!" Ravenclaw's Hermione Granger called his name from a distance.

Matthew could vaguely guess that Hermione wanted to talk to him. It's just that he didn't think too much about it, focused on that matter, and didn't want to discuss it too much.

So he pretended to be in the noisy voice, didn't hear it, and walked out of the classroom without looking back.

As Miss Granger drove towards him, she collided head-on with Agnes Lestrange of Slytherin.

"Sorry! Sorry!" she apologized hastily.

But when he raised his head, Matthew Wakefield had disappeared.

He was already on his way back to the Slytherin common room.
