Hogwarts becomes host

22. Shafiq is targeted



Elaine finally managed to get away from Lavender and Daphne, as well as the other curious female students, who mostly escaped from the cafeteria and came to the classroom.

As for the barrage, treat it as if you haven't seen it. Anyway, those water friends clamoring for burning at the stake are unlikely to come to Hogwarts to arrest her.

Most of the students were curious about the vision of the opening party last night and wanted to ask her how she did it. For this reason, Elaine made another note of Slughorn and decided to find an opportunity to go to his office and replace all the mead with vinegar.

There were still fifteen minutes left before the first class started, and Hermione seemed to have arrived very early. She chose a seat in the front row.

Elaine sat next to her, feeling that she should say something to counter the water friends who were gossiping about couples quarreling.

"That Hermione"

Hermione didn't answer a word, still focusing on reading the history of magic.

"You won't be like those idiots in Muggle school who ostracized me just because you talked to Lavender. If you want to play with us, stay away from Granger─"

"I'm not that naive." Hermione said dullly, still not raising her head, but Elaine could see her blushing. "It's just, I'm just previewing, and you're interrupting my reading."

"Oh"

It’s really hard to be an anchor with a primary school student’s communication skills

11 years old is indeed just graduated from elementary school, no surprise

I still think Hermione is jealous

This class is History of Magic shared by Gryffindors and Ravenclaws, and students who have finished breakfast arrive intermittently.

Lavender, Parvati and her twin sister Padma walked into the classroom together. Lavender sat next to Elaine and wanted to chat with her, while Parvati sat in the second row with her sister, right next to Elaine. Behind Lotus.

The anchor was surrounded by girls again, and he was envious and jealous.

Hermione's quill looks like it's about to break xddd

Harry and Ron were the last people to enter the classroom. At that time, there was only room next to Hermione, so they had to sit next to Hermione.

Soon, Professor Binns burst out from the blackboard, but because the freshmen had seen ghosts yesterday, it only caused a brief commotion.

Everyone quickly picked up their mood and began to listen to lectures or go to sleep.

Perhaps it was due to ghosts, or maybe he had lost his enthusiasm after teaching for too long. Binns’ voice was hollow and dull, with no difference in tone, like a robot reading. Even though he added a lot of information to the textbook,

It's actually quite interesting

想睡

I decided to turn off the sound and watch the subtitles

Even the barrage could not resist the mysterious power of Professor Binns. Elaine finally understood why Harry and Ron never listened seriously to the class in the original work. It was not that they were naughty children, but that it was really difficult for people to concentrate on this class. She was an adult. Everyone is almost asleep

"Miss Shafiq, please repeat what I just said."

"what"

"Please repeat what I just said." Professor Binns's tone seemed to have risen a little, because he stopped teaching and the whole class finally got out of the hypnotic state, and Elaine had to stand up to answer.

Lavender just seemed to be asleep, and then she raised her head from her arms. Sitting in the first row, she actually dared to sleep openly. She was truly worthy of being a Gryffindor.

So Professor Binns, you should be looking for trouble with Lavender, why are you looking for me? Elaine thought depressedly.

Hermione pushed the notes over, but was pushed back by Elaine. She didn't need the notes, there were subtitles in the live broadcast room to help her cheat.

"The origin of magic comes from the Mesopotamian civilization. It was originally just a special ability possessed by individuals. However, in the sixth century BC, after the Assyrian king Sennacherib conquered Babylon, in order to show off his achievements, he concentrated on All the special people at that time planned to build a special building."

"Because of the king's instructions, the peculiars gathered together to help and communicate with each other. Gradually, some people developed ways to control magic. They applied this to buildings, and finally created the great ruins hanging garden. After that, the peculiars left The Assyrians passed on their knowledge to future generations, and they were the prototype of the wizards.”

"The most famous wizard in our time is King Solomon of Israel. He competed with his Muggle brothers for the throne, and finally used magic to hypnotize his father and successfully inherited the throne. After succeeding to the throne, he vigorously promoted magic and established the supremacy of wizards. Wizards from all over were drawn to help King Solomon.”

"Very good. Pay attention in class." Professor Binns nodded and started teaching again.

So it's not me who is sleeping. Elaine felt her desire to complain getting stronger and stronger.

Fortunately, Lavender didn't seem to dare to sleep anymore due to this commotion. She stuck out her tongue, opened the History of Magic and started reading.

In less than ten minutes, the students in the entire classroom were in a daze again. Even though Professor Binns caught Elaine as an example, the hypnotic power of his tone was not something that ordinary students could resist, unless he ordered someone unlucky again─ ─

"Miss Shafiq, please continue reading the following text."

""

"Miss Shafiq, please explain the difference between wizards and ancient Egyptian priests."

""

"That's all for today. Other students can leave. In addition, Miss Shafiq, please give me a two-foot-long essay on the origin of wizards next week."

"Why"

After Professor Binns floated away, Elaine’s question that she had been holding back for two hours resounded throughout the classroom.

But no one could answer her. Most of the students' eyes were full of sympathy. The professor called her up five times during the whole class and gave her an extra personal assignment. This was definitely a sign of deep hatred.

Is it strange that Professor Binns has this style of painting? It was infected by Snape

Did the anchor ever hang Professor Binns in the air?

Come on, I'm a ghost. I'm floating in the air.

"Well, maybe the professor is in a bad mood today, and since you're sitting in the front row again, he's taking it out on you." Ron suppressed a smile and said, "George said that Professor Binns doesn't care if people are sleeping or playing down there, as long as they don't interfere. He lectures, he doesn’t do anything.”

"Then you can't take it out on the students, that's bad." Parvati complained.

"I don't think so. The professor knew Elaine's name without naming her. Could it be that you did something to make the professor unhappy?" Hermione said thoughtfully, "Go to the professor to apologize. I will go with you. "

"Why are you apologizing? Elaine did nothing wrong." Lavender said to Hermione dissatisfied. "Besides, it's the professor's own problem. The lecture was so boring that the whole class almost fell asleep."

"Stop arguing. I just met Professor Binns for the first time today. How could I treat him like this?"

Elaine said impatiently, and in the middle of her words she suddenly stared at Harry who was about to leave for lunch.

"What, what's wrong, why are you staring at me?" Harry said uneasily, because all the girls were staring at him now, and he was embarrassed.

"It's okay, I remembered that my dad once skipped class under Professor Binns, and even dragged the whole class to skip class together." Elaine buried her head back in her arms and said dullly, "Professor Dumbledore said , that was the biggest truancy incident in the history of Hogwarts.”

"" Everyone present was speechless, and they could probably understand why Professor Binns would torment people like this.

Harry is still snickering over there. It will be you on Friday.
