I was expelled from Hogwarts?.

Chapter 674 The New Protection of Magical Creatures Professor

Looking at Rita's article about the love triangle between Harry, Ron and Snape, Rove couldn't help but take a breath.

He didn't even dare to expose Professor Snape, but Rita was so bold... I really wasn't afraid of being drugged by someone when she came to Hogwarts again one day!

All I can say is that Rita is indeed the most outspoken journalist in the new awards!
But then again, although the content is a bit fake, the content involving celebrities, cheating, teacher-student romance, etc. is still interesting to watch and wants to know the follow-up content.

This is the great thing about Rita, she understands the deepest expectations of readers very well.

In comparison, another report she reported during the Christmas vacation seemed unremarkable:

【Dumbledore's Big Mistake】

The newspaper's special correspondent Rita Skeeter reports that the eccentric Albus Dumbledore, head of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, has always dared to hire controversial teachers.

In September this year, the violent Mad-Eye Moody was hired as a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.

The decision came as a complete surprise to many at the Ministry.

However, compared to Hagrid, the teacher hired by Dumbledore to teach Care of Magical Creatures, Mad-Eye is serious, responsible, and kind...]

In this article, Rita goes through in detail the Defense Against the Dark Arts professors that Dumbledore has recruited over the past few decades:

There are dark wizards, liars, smugglers, vampires, squibs pretending to be magic... and none of them are good.

Finally, she also revealed Hagrid's identity as a hybrid giant in the article, and hinted that he might be Dumbledore's illegitimate son, so he could be cared for by the principal for decades.

To be honest, except for the illegitimate child, the other contents are quite objective.

For example, Hagrid illegally used a hybrid between a manticore and a fire crab to breed a dangerous blast-tailed snail and forced the students to take care of it.

Rolf sighed slightly. He asked Hagrid to hand over the Blast-Ended Skrewt more than once, and reminded him not to talk about it everywhere... Okay, something happened now, right?

"How is Hagrid now?" Rolf asked.

"I don't know." Neville shook his head. "Since this report came out, Hagrid has never come to the auditorium for dinner. No one knows where he has gone."

"I don't know if he will come when class starts later."

"Probably not," said Rove. "Hagrid will probably be hiding for a while."

Rolf's guess was correct. When they arrived at the cabin, they did not see Hagrid, but an elderly witch instead:

She is about in her early 60s, thin and serious. She has a long face, a pointed chin and small ears. Her black hair is already gray, but her eyes are as bright as agate.

The witch saw Rolf, walked towards him, and asked: "Child, do you still remember me?"

The Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students all turned to look at Rove, why were there people he knew everywhere!

Luofu stared at the witch, searched in his memory for a while, and then remembered:
"Oh, you are...Mrs. Wilmina Grapeland?"

A rare smile broke out at the corner of Wilmina Grapeland's mouth.

"It's me, child. I'm really afraid that you don't remember me. The last time we met, you were only nine years old. You were just a little bit like that. Not much older than an elf. Now you are much taller than me.

If I hadn't seen your picture in the newspaper every day, I wouldn't have recognized you. "

Rolf completely remembered that when he was nine years old, he and Newt visited the Hebridean Islands and lived with the McFasty family for most of the year.

Speaking of the McFasty family, they are also an ancient pure-blood family that can communicate with fire dragons and tame them.Rumor has it that their family has a magic horn that can forcibly control fire dragons.

Therefore, McFasty is also called the Dragon King Family.

This name is not an exaggeration. They have lived in the Hebridean Islands in Scotland for generations and have been taking care of the black dragons on the island.

Even every child of the McFasty family would choose a newly hatched black dragon as a companion when they were young, and then raise it themselves!
As for the children of the Scamander family, when they are ten years old, they can only choose one of the three magical animals of the royal family - the Niffler, the Salamander and the Bowtruckle - as a companion.

In comparison, it is indeed a lot shabby!
The witch in front of her named Wilmina Grapeland was also a wizard of the McFasty family, but she later got married and changed her surname to her husband's after she married Grapeland.

She is also a fire dragon expert and magizoologist, and is considered half of Newt's student.

"By the way, when I came to Hogwarts, Elinia asked me to say hello to you." Graplan said:

"She said she really wanted to meet you. She had a bet with you back then."

When Roof heard the name Elinia, he also twitched his lips.

Elenia McFasty is Grapeland's great-niece, the same age as Rolf.

The year she chose the black dragon, Luo Fu was also there, and then the black dragon cub she chose was almost kidnapped by Luo Fu... The two of them even had a fight over it.

Taking advantage of her early development and being a head taller than Roff, Elinia proposed a father-daughter game, where whoever lost would be called daddy.

Rolf was already capable of magic at that time, so he easily defeated Elinia and made her call him daddy for two months... Of course, when there was no one else around!
Unexpectedly, Elinia still remembered this and took the initiative to bring it up. Could it be that she wanted to regain her position?

Speaking of which, Rolf was very curious about why he didn't see Elinia at Hogwarts when he entered school.

Later he learned that the McFasty family had always maintained the tradition of receiving magical education in their own home.

Luofe and Professor Grapeland chatted for a while, and as the class time arrived, Grapeland said:

"I am Professor Graplan, and I am the temporary substitute teacher for your Care of Magical Creatures class. I will be teaching the class for the next period of time."

"Where's Hagrid?" Justin asked, raising his hand.

"Hagrid is ill," said Grapeland. "He needs some time to recuperate."

Everyone looked at each other in confusion at first, and then quickly became happy. After all, changing teachers meant that they no longer had to deal with Blast-Ended Skrewts.

Sure enough, Professor Grapeland did not take the students to the pumpkin patch, but walked around the stables and towards the Black Lake.

They walked through the snow with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and soon arrived at the black lake.

More than half of the Black Lake is frozen. Durmstrang's big ship on the lake is docked in the lake. It looks weird, like a ghost ship that has just been salvaged.

Professor Graplan stood on the shore and said loudly:

"In this lesson I'm going to teach you about merfolk."
