Hogwarts Outsider Chapter 73: End of vacation

The holiday time is always the fastest.

On the day before the new term, the students who had returned home returned to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft one after another; the Slytherin common room became crowded and noisy as a result.

For Matthew, this is a bit of a pity.

He could no longer have the great fireplace in the common room to himself.

It is no longer possible to play wizard chess with Miss Lestrange by the quiet fireplace.

The returning students, of course, also include Matthew's roommates...

Malfoy, Crabbe, Goyle and Nott worked hard all night on the night they returned to Hogwarts.

They finished all their homework for the entire Christmas holiday, or more precisely copied it.

……

The next day, the new semester begins.

In the first Transfiguration class of the new semester, when he saw Professor Troka appearing on the podium, Matthew suddenly realized that the professor did not attend the Christmas dinner, and he did not attend the Christmas dinner during the entire Christmas holiday. met each other.

Of course, this is not surprising, not only students have holidays, but also teachers.

Except for those teachers who regard Hogwarts as their home, other professors will also leave the campus during the holidays and go home to reunite with their families.

It turns out that vampires also have family members, which surprised Matthew slightly.

In the first class, Professor Troka didn't teach anything new; instead, he took everyone to review the knowledge about Transfiguration learned in the previous semester.

And, again, he repeated the principle of Transfiguration:

"Observe, imagine...decisive, and cautious..."

……

And in the history of magic in the afternoon, Professor Bathilda Bagshot had a sudden whim and gave a quiz in the first class.

And the difficulty of this test paper is not low.

This impromptu quiz naturally caused the huge history of magic class to wail continuously.

Matthew is no exception. He has not reviewed systematically. He feels that he has done a mess of the questions in the front of the test paper.

However, the last big question is an exception. This question requires everyone to describe in detail the epic duel between the great magister Merlin and the black witch Morgana on Avalon Island in the sixth century AD.

Matthew was very lucky, because during the Christmas holiday, he just finished reading an extra-curricular book called "Legend of Merlin" carefully.

He felt that he could definitely get full marks on this question.

……

Tuesday's herbal class is undoubtedly very unpopular with everyone.

Because it means that they have to walk out of the castle, walk through the wind and snow, and go to the greenhouse... In the coldest weather of the year, this journey is undoubtedly very tormenting.

At the entrance of the greenhouse, Matthew and the others met the first-year students of Gryffindor and Hufflepuff who had just finished a herbal class.

Harry Evans looked bruised and bruised, as if he had fallen on the way to the conservatory.

As for Neville Longbottom, his face was full of anger.

"Neville!" Matthew walked towards Neville and said hello, "Long time no see, what's bothering you?"

"Yes!" Neville's eyes turned to Matthew, and at the same time he said indignantly: "I never thought that Hogwarts is not responsible at all!"

"Not responsible?" Matthew was stunned: "Sorry, I don't quite understand..."

"You still remember Ronald Weasley!" Neville explained, "The boy who was attacked in the first month of school..."

[Note: The name Ron is just a nickname, the full name is Ronald, and the full name is Ronald Billius Weasley. The original book has always been from the perspective of Harry Potter. Harry is Ron's close buddy, so Ron has always been called by nicknames. 】

"Of course I remember." Matthew asked curiously, "What happened to him?"

"The Hogwarts school hospital does not allow him to go home, his body has not yet recovered... Of course, his consciousness has not yet awakened." Neville looked even more indignant: "But at the end of the Christmas holiday , when his family came to Hogwarts to visit him, they discovered an extremely shocking thing..."

"...Ron was obviously poisoned by a strange poison, but the Hogwarts school hospital never used any kind of antidote on him! They just gave him an antidote when he was just attacked I bought some blood tonic... After that, I have been using recovery potions, just to keep him alive..."

"...Ron's parents were furious at the time, but Madam Pomfrey from the school hospital told them that this was the most correct treatment method, and asked him not to question it. Naturally, Ron's father would not believe it, and the family , were all thrown out of the school hospital by Mrs. Rozier..."

"...and the whole family was warned ~IndoMTL.com~ not to reveal this to anyone, or Ron's father will lose his job at the Ministry of Magic. I also heard it by chance The one who said this..."

"...Hogwarts is so irresponsible! If they can't cure Ron, why don't they transfer him to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magic and Magic? St. Mungo's will definitely find a solution..."

Neville Longbottom was still complaining indignantly, but soon——

"Neville Longbottom!" A stern voice came from the direction of the castle.

Professor Sinistra, the astronomy teacher and head of Gryffindor, stood there, staring at Neville.

Neville couldn't help shivering, and walked over in a desperate manner.

……

And on Tuesday night, when Matthew passed the landing on the second floor, in front of Mr. Pringle's office.

He saw two familiar figures.

Justin Finchrey and Neville Longbottom, both of them followed behind Mr. Pringle disheartened.

They were carrying heavy bags on their backs, their hands and feet were chained, and they were walking down the stairs.

And Mr. Tang stared at them from behind.

It looks like... they're being... locked up?

Matthew thought to himself.

……

All in all, many trivial things happened in the first week of the new semester.

But on the whole, there haven't been any major disturbances in the Hogwarts castle so far.

This is not in line with Matthew's previous prediction.
