Chapter 523 Anecdotes about the start of school (seeking a monthly ticket)

The next morning, Valencia refused to get up in the velvet comforter, so Felix tucked the chirping alarm clock into his little quilt.

Warren turned off the alarm clock in dissatisfaction, pushed it out, then smacked his lips in a daze, turned over and fell asleep even more soundly.

When Felix came to the auditorium, the weather outside was gloomy and humid, and the feathers of the owls were wet with the mist in the air.A tawny owl circled him twice, dropping a copy of the Daily Prophet.

He spread out the newspaper. There was no mention of the attack on the Minister of Magic yesterday. Instead, a picture of Ms. Bones standing in front of the Thieves Falls hung on the front page.In the photo, she looks at the camera calmly, her expression is very reassuring, and there are several background panels next to her - the Aurors are standing behind her with solemn expressions, Sirius is leaning on the wall, poking the anti-thief waterfall with his magic wand water curtain.

When Felix appeared in the ancient rune classroom, there was already a student waiting at the door.

"Good morning, Professor Hype." Colin Creevey said enthusiastically.

"Hello, Mr. Creevey, come in." After two months, Felix opened the door of the classroom for the first time, and there was a smell of accumulated dust mixed with damp and corrupt air inside. The corners were covered with dark brown mold spots.

"Tsk." Felix said, waving his wand, all the windows in the classroom opened, and then a whirlwind blew out of nowhere in the room, the tables and chairs rattled, Creevey's face flashed with excitement, After more than ten seconds, a cloud of gray air flew out along the window, and the air in the classroom became fresh and comfortable again.

"Mould is next, all fine work," Felix muttered, pointing at the stubborn dark brown patch with his wand, the tip of the wand shot streaks of light, and when the light hit the wall, the Immediately the traces disappeared.

"A cleansing spell, Professor? I can help!" Creevey volunteered.Felix had nothing to do, Creevey pulled out his wand, imitating Felix, trying to recite the spell silently, but after several failures, he had to honestly recite the spell: "Clean up! Clean up! new!"

Ten minutes later, they stared at the classroom keenly, searching for possible stains. "Almost, let me think about it, because I love labor, I will add ten points." Felix said, and when he came to the window, there was already a drizzle outside, and it was blown into the classroom by the wind, hitting his face with cold Sizzling.

Creevey found a seat near the front and sat down, took out the "Practical Runes (Elementary)", and asked with great interest: "Professor, what new teaching aids have you prepared for this year, can you tell me in advance?"

"Why do you say that?" Felix looked at him from the window.

"Because the professor prepares new things every year," Creevey counted them one by one, counting them with his fingers, "the first year—oh, I was still in the first grade at that time—was magic puppets, and the second year was all kinds of magic puppets. All kinds of looking glasses, the third year is the rune card... I just wanted to know what new teaching aids this year came in advance."

"Ah, if you want to say that... isn't that what you have in your hand?"

Creevey blinked, looked down at the "Practical Rune (Elementary)" in his hand, the expression on his face suddenly collapsed, disappointed. "But—" he stammered, "This is just a collection of practical runes."

"Okay." Felix shook his left hand, and the ring flashed a gleam of light - with a loud "bang", a large box fell on the table.

Creevey's eyes widened.He bent down to stare at the contents of the box—an assortment of small wooden sticks that looked like quills, and sort of like magic wands, except one end was sharpened off.The surface of these small wooden sticks is painted with some strange patterns, which look like letters and rune symbols, but they are all specious.

"The rune carving knife," Felix explained, "appeared two years ago, but I haven't promoted it. After all, the effect of the magic wand is not bad. However, as the ancient runes become more and more perfect, there are It is necessary to make a more detailed division, just like the crucible in the potion class, there have been various models over the centuries: ordinary type, automatic stirring, foldable, special materials, etc..."

This is actually Heidstrand Villa's suggestion.

Creevey looked at the box and asked, "Professor, how should I choose a rune carving knife that suits me?"

"Oh, the material is actually the same—even from the same chestnut wood, and the pattern is different at most, but it doesn't affect the use. You can choose the one you like, first come, first served—" Felix said, seeing his interest Picking vigorously, I was relieved.

After Varen learned to write, he liked to paint everywhere with a paint brush. Felix cut a whole chestnut tree into thick boards as high as Varen, so that he could write and draw on them.Except for a few passable 'works' that were collected by Felix, the rest of the materials were changed into boxes.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Creevey pick up a carving knife and study the design on it with awe.Felix decided to keep this secret, no, keep this tradition, and add some useless patterns to the carving knife in the future...

At this time, two more students walked into the classroom. Ginny and Luna looked at Creevey who was about to get into the box with curious eyes.

……

Felix stood on the podium.The students in the audience were all holding rune carving knives, chattering and discussing. They even seriously guessed the meaning of the pattern. Seeing that the topic was brought up to "some mysterious African script", he hurriedly announced the start of class.

"As you already know, this course has a separate practical part, which means that the value of practical runes has been recognized by the Wizarding Examinations Administration and incorporated into the exam. According to the first version of the assessment standards, the OWLs exam will only involve describing common Rune symbols, rune circuits, NEWTs exams will involve rune spells, such as the light and fire spell..."

Rune spells are not as easy to learn as imagined, the minimum requirement is to master a magic symbol of a practical rune.In fact, few students in the class can do this.To be precise, excluding Ginny and Luna who are members of the Rune Club, this number is currently zero.

At the end of a class, Felix collected his summer homework and announced that get out of class was over.The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and there were a few muffled thunder sounds from time to time. At noon, Felix had finished eating in the auditorium. When he saw that the door of the staff lounge was ajar, he opened it and walked in.

"Oh, whoever it is, please close the door, thanks—it's a bit noisy out there," said Professor McGonagall's voice,
Felix closed the door behind him and looked at a desk where the voice came from.But he only saw piles of parchment, and Professor McGonagall's body was completely blocked.With a wave of Felix's hand, a flame lit up in the fireplace.The moisture in the room has dissipated a lot.

"summer homework?"

"Yes." Professor McGonagall raised his head and pushed his glasses, "The first week of school is the busiest, and there are a lot of things to deal with, such as summer homework, Quidditch selection, adjustment of course selection...the information of the Order of the Phoenix should also be timely. Tidying up, not to mention finding time to comfort Caredy—"

She shut up suddenly.

"Professor of Muggle Studies? What happened to her?" Felix asked curiously.

Professor McGonagall pursed her lips.

"Well, you'll always know from somewhere else...she's in a nasty mess."

Felix’s impression of this professor is still two years ago. They participated in an international conference that was not successful. The professor once mentioned that he was studying a popular science book on genes and heredity.

Thinking of this, a guess popped up in her mind - "Wouldn't there be any trouble with Death Eaters for her?"

But it shouldn't be, Rita Skeeter is alive and well.

"Of course not, she—she was caught by the Muggle police," Professor McGonagall snorted from his nose, and said with an unclear attitude, "According to her, she was asking a scholar for advice, but accidentally let the wand A few sparks came out, suspected of possessing a dangerous weapon."

This thing...

Felix smacked his lips, and after a while, he said dryly, "She wasn't punished?"

"The Ministry of Magic saw that she was a professor, and the punishment was not serious—it was just a warning and a fine. Fortunately, she didn't enter Azkaban. She might feel ashamed, and she submitted it to Dumbledore when she came back. The resignation report, but the principal did not agree. She has been staying in the office for the past few days because she is preparing a new book."

Felix raised his eyebrows. Thinking of the thesis that Professor Bubaji planned to publish, he felt that this new book would cause an uproar. In fact, it is not impossible to publish it, but the current time is really sensitive.In less than ten seconds, he came up with a solution - to send her a whole set of biology books.

Since she is determined to study, let's spend more time. By the time she understands everything, the battle may be over.

At this time, the door was pushed open again from the outside.

The sound of the quill pen rubbing against the parchment was immediately drowned out by the din outside the door, and then a gust of damp cold air rushed into the room, and the flame in the fireplace roared violently, sparking a series of fires on the red-hot wood. Mars.

With a "bang", the door was slammed shut, and Snape walked in wearing his perennial black robe, with a stack of thick parchment floating behind him.
