Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Chapter 288: Administrator's responsibilities

"You owe me an explanation ..."

Dumbledore directed the wand and repaired the last crack in the ceiling. His blue eyes looked at Grindelwald through the half-moon glasses, and asked calmly and geologically.

"Explain?" Grindelwald rubbed his wand and grinned. "This is in your castle, your school."

"A week ago, when I sent the child to you, she was still a little witch who could only light the spell."

Dumbledore glanced at Grindelwald and dexterously tapped on himself while turning his wand. A set of decent purple wizard robes enveloped his body, replacing the original set of star pajamas, while he was not nervous. Whispered slowly.

"But now, as long as she is given a little time, I have no doubt that she can tear down the entire Hogwarts-this is what you call the explosive power of Elena, slightly, bigger, a little?"

Over time, any little wizard will grow.

For this, Dumbledore was naturally prepared, but this does not mean that he had imagined that in less than a week, Elena had the possibility to destroy Hogwarts Castle-this It is like sending a milk cat picked up by the roadside to your boyfriend's house for a week, and when you get it back, you become a bite beast.

"I repeat it again, and I only taught her three magics in total."

Grindelwald shrugged helplessly, waved his wand and replaced himself with a wizard robe.

"Healing Mowen, Explosion Curse, Cleansing Charm. Well, I admit that Explosion Curse is an accident ... Besides that, I just talked to her about magical animal protection class, herbal medicine class and magic potion class. Relevant knowledge. "

Facing Dumbledore's questioning, Grindelwald responded lightly, his finger against the wand tip, and said slowly.

"Albus, you ca n’t blame my students’ magical talents and perceptions on you. The person who recruited her into Hogwarts was you, not me. And she threw her to Newmontgard Castle And you. And ... "

"Hush ..."

Before Grindelwald had finished speaking, Dumbledore suddenly frowned, his fingers flicking in front of his lips.

At the next moment, there was a rapid footstep in the corridor not far away.

"What happened here? What happened?"

Unexpectedly, Professor Snape was not the first to arrive at the scene.

Holding a dim lantern, Argus Falch quickly appeared at the corner of the corridor, and a little behind him, Mrs. Loris's shadow was drawn by the shaking light, as if it was some kind of terrible Monster.

Undoubtedly, as the administrator of this castle, he may know that there are slightly fewer secret passages than Dumbledore, but in terms of how to reach all corners of the castle fastest, he is definitely the entire Hogwarts Castle One of the most powerful faculty members in fact-in fact, in most cases, he will arrive at the scene of the accident earlier than Dumbledore.

"Well, Professor Dumbledore? Mr. Apocalis?"

Filch's slightly raised eyes saw the two wizards standing in the middle of the corridor for the first time.

Then, he lifted the lantern and looked at a calm corridor. A confusion appeared on his face, "Principal, you also feel it, I mean ..."

"Professor Dumbledore, what happened?"

Before Mr. Filch had organized his language, there was another footstep on the other side of the corridor. Snape, who was covered in a large black wizard robe, walked quickly, as if it were a huge glide on the ground. bat.

"Isn't it ... that 'guest' this morning appeared again?"

Snape snorted softly and narrowed his eyes, his dark eyes gleaming in the candlelight.

As he said, the eyes of the professor in the potion class looked around the corridor. He seemed to want to catch a dark demon hidden in the shadow of Hogwarts. The strong shock just now was too reminiscent. Some bad memories-especially, this time it happened not too far from his office.

Between the two talking, Professor McGonagall in pajamas and Professor Sprout in plain robes also rushed into the corridor, and looked at the promenade as if nothing had happened.

Since there have been several large-scale campus accidents in succession, almost every dean's nerves have not tensed consciously, but for any unusual movements, everyone will rush to the place where the accident happened as soon as possible- -Everyone except Professor Flitwick who lives in Ravenclaw Tower outside the main castle.

"So, what the **** happened?" Filch, who first arrived at the scene, asked again, his lips tightly squeezed, and the lantern in his hand swaying left and right, as if he wanted to find out any traces.

"A false alarm, it seems to be a ghost mischief."

Grindelwald looked around the professors around, waved his hands, frowned, and made an effort to recall.

"Albus and I just saw a vague back. I remember, Mr. Argus, you seem to have mentioned before, that is what Pivi ..."

"Peeves! That's right, of course, who else can be besides him!"

Filch said loudly, with a trace of deep anger in his face, turning his head to look at Dumbledore.

"Principal, as I said long ago, we should not indulge this restless ghost again and again in the school."

"Allow me to say it, principal." Snape said softly with his arms folded. "I don't think that the Pippi ghost alone can produce tremors that affect the entire castle. He may have just happened to be here It ’s just a place. "

Snape's lips twisted, revealing a hint of sarcasm, as if he was deeply doubtful about this, "Perhaps we need to conduct a comprehensive search of Hogwarts Castle to exclude some unrest factors from the campus-exact In other words, I suspect an unwelcome guest who is still hiding on the ground floor of the castle. "

"To be honest, Professor Snape, you don't know how annoying Pippi is." Filch snapped, "It seems to me that this is not impossible for him ... If you are interested in staying in my office for an extended period of time, you will find that he can think of more tricks than magic potions. "

For centuries, Pippi ghosts have been causing serious damage to Hogwarts. Since the school ’s founder Salazar Slytherin personally appointed Hankelton Humble as the castle administrator, one after another The fight between the castle administrator and the Pippi ghost never stopped.

This is an endless tradition. Many wizards have tried to catch and drive Pippi ghosts, but without exception, all ended in failure and compromise. During this period, Pippi ghosts seemed to be an omnipotent. The same exists.

But occasionally, it was found that almost all powerful wizards in history have exceptional tolerance and tolerance for Pippi ghosts, and no one chose to drive or eliminate Pippi ghosts personally-but for this, everyone thinks This may be the pity of the strong to the mischievous ghost.

Therefore, over time, fighting against Pippi has become one of the responsibilities of Hogwarts Castle administrators for thousands of years.

"About this time, what Mr. Otto and I saw with my own eyes was indeed a mischief caused by Pipi Ghost-as to what method he used, we will naturally find a way to figure it out later."

Dumbledore glanced at Grindelwald next to him meaningfully, and said firmly, "Severus, believe me, this is not the same thing. Otherwise, I will let you see that person with your own eyes." "

Facing Dumbledore's bright blue eyes, after Snape was silent for a while, he turned his face indifferently and snorted softly, expressing reluctance to accept.

As a senior master of brain occlusion and telepathy, although Snape can't see through Dumbledore's ideas, he can still barely do it by using eyes, expressions, and tone to tell the truth of a sentence.

At least from the performance of Dumbledore just now, there is no trace of lying.

"Also, Argus, Pippi is also a member of Hogwarts."

Dumbledore raised his eyebrows helplessly, glanced at the furious Filch, and sighed softly.

"Of course, if you can catch him, maybe this time I will consider temporarily letting him disappear or settle for a while."

"Really? Principal, did you finally agree? Rest assured, I will definitely catch him."

Hearing Dumbledore ’s answer, Argus Filch was as if Christmas had arrived early, his face exuded with excitement, and he said cheerfully to Mrs. Lorris.

"Honey, let's go! Let's grab the **** Pippi ghost, and this time we can finally let him get out."

With Dumbledore's conclusion on the coffin, the rest of the professors naturally did not have much doubt, and they all took a sigh of relief and walked lightly out of the corridor.

It's not too early. Except for Filch, who is happily taking Mrs. Lorris to search for Pippi ghosts in the castle, most of the professors will be filled with a full day of classes tomorrow, everyone Can't wait to go back to the warm and soft bed for a good rest.

You know, not everyone can be like an old wizard. Except for feeding birds, most of the time, they can sit idle in the office and do what they love.

...

"You have changed a lot over the years, Albus."

Watching Filch and others leave, Grindelwald shook his head in sigh.

"Let a dumb cannon catch a sprite, really you can say it-even if you shot it in person, you can only temporarily trap for a short period of time? There are several promises like this sky loft. What I used to be. "

There is no doubt that for Grindelwald, the difficulty of recognizing ghosts is even lower than the difficulty of recognizing dumb cannons.

Grindelwald, who has studied the Three Sacred Instruments of Death deeply and even used it as his own mark, is very clear what kind of existence the ghost is. To be precise, he understands almost all the documents related to this aspect. Ever.

Therefore, almost at the first sight of Pippi, Grindelwald was convinced that Pippi could never be a ghost formed by the wizard ’s brand, and was listening to Argus Filch about Pippi. After the ghost's description, he almost knew what kind of peculiar existence this was-the skin essence evolved from the spirit of the Hogwarts children.

"Sometimes we have to leave some hope."

Dumbledore smiled slightly, and did not deny, "However, I did not lie. The way to catch the elves actually exists-you should know, of course, first of all they have to realize the peculiarities of Pippi."

Hiding the true identity of Pippi is almost a tacit agreement between top wizards.

For the former Hogwarts principals, once they realize that the Pipi ghost is equivalent to the suppressed nature of the students, it is difficult to feel bad about this tricky little guy. After all, in a sense, the chaotic spirit of children is also an integral part of Hogwarts.

"Old man, what I'm worried about now is ... what does Elena want to do?"

Dumbledore rubbed his eyebrows, revealing a confused look. "There is no doubt that many of her behaviors seem to be empty and wanton, but each time they can get some benefits from an unexpected angle."

Over the years, it is not without contradictions between the little wizard and the Pippi ghost.

In fact, almost every year there are hundreds of incidents where little wizards are tricked by Pippi ghosts. The students use magic spells to fight back against Pippi ghosts, which is actually something that happens from time to time.

However, in Dumbledore's view, this time the situation is not so much as Elena and Pippi are fighting, it is better to say ... These two mixed-world demon kings are building a strange friendship through a special game. The way.

The question is, what exactly does Elena want?

"So ... you mean, that kid might have realized this?"

Grindelwald raised his eyebrows and tilted his head toward the classroom behind him, revealing an unbelievable look.

"Wait, if you follow her connection to Hogwarts Castle, that is to say ..."

"Maybe, but this is what you need to consider."

Dumbledore blinked mischievously with a smirk, "Don't forget, you are now one of Hogwarts 'castle administrators. After all, this is Hogwarts' glorious tradition that lasts for millennia. Dear , Mr. Otto Apocalis. "

Looking at Grindelwald whose face suddenly became difficult to see, Dumbledore suddenly felt a lot relieved, and his chest did not suffocate so much-from now on, even if something happens in school, at least one person can Share the pain with him.
