The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 255 Ada makes headlines

After sending away the Minister of Magic Fudge and the troublemaker Lucius Malfoy, Hogwarts became a sea of ​​joy, because the principal Dumbledore held a celebration party.

The students left the common room in droves, smiles on everyone's faces.Although Colin Creevey and Justin Finch-Leary have not yet awakened, the school is safe and there will be no more victims.

In addition, the annoying Gilderoy Lockhart has also left the school. He will accept justice and receive the punishment he deserves.Don’t these two things together warrant celebration?

In the auditorium, Ernie MacMillan walked up to Harry and apologized endlessly, both for his stupidity and for his misunderstanding.Hagrid also appeared next to Harry and gave him a big bear hug.

When Ada appeared at the banquet with a fragrant aroma, the entire banquet reached its climax.It's not because of Ada's appearance, but because Professor McGonagall just announced that the school has decided to cancel the final exams for this school year in order to entertain everyone!

The students cheered even louder, almost lifting the ceiling of the auditorium.Of course, there were also discordant voices in the crowd. Hermione, who escaped, held her head and shouted "Oh, no!".Obviously, compared to the silent Ada, the second generation of Miss Know-It-All really loves exams.

Dumbledore also announced that he would add [-] points to Ada and Harry respectively, and award them with special contribution awards to the school.This means that Gryffindor successfully defended the Academy Cup, and Ada finally got her wish.

The celebrations continued throughout the evening, and even after curfew, excited students could still be seen in the corridors.Even Filch, who was always devoted to his duties, rarely missed work. He stayed in his room, crying tears of joy while holding Mrs. Norris's toys.

The Gryffindor common room was even more lively, and the little lions had a pajama party.Professor McGonagall also "had fun with the people". She changed from her usual strictness and appeared in the common room wearing a hairnet and pajamas.

No one sleeps at Hogwarts tonight!

After working hard all night, the result was a sluggish mood the next day. Not many people could show up in the auditorium for breakfast in the morning. Even Ada didn't get up until noon, let alone other students.

Ada, who had just woken up, didn't know yet that her life was about to undergo earth-shaking changes, that she would also experience Harry's troubles, and she didn't know what was waiting for her today.

And the cause of all this is Cornelius Fudge.The Minister of Magic's trip was indeed not in vain. Not only did he take away the deceitful Gilderoy Lockhart, he also obtained first-hand information about the Chamber of Secrets.During his tenure, legends that have been circulating for thousands of years were revealed, which can be regarded as his achievements.

So the Minister asked his people to work overnight and published the whole story of the secret room in today's Daily Prophet.A front-page headline, this is an opportunity that someone will never get in their lifetime, but Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets can easily do it, not to mention that there are Dumbledore and Harry Potter in it.

Every wizard who buys the Daily Prophet will see this report and know that Dumbledore and Harry Potter worked together to solve the Chamber of Secrets.But the strange thing is that the people did not care about Harry, but became interested in the unfamiliar name Esmeralda Drizzt.

Needless to say, Dumbledore was the greatest wizard, and it was no surprise that he performed any feats.Needless to say, Harry Potter defeated the mysterious man when he was only one year old. He was the savior of the British wizarding world. Entering the Chamber of Secrets was just a basic exercise, and he didn't even need to hit 6.

Unlike Dumbledore and Harry, Ada is a nobody.This is the first time Ada has appeared in the Daily Prophet, and it is also the first time she has entered the public eye, letting more wizards know that there is such a person in Hogwarts.

Although Ada's name has appeared in Transfiguration magazines many times, it is an academic journal, and few people read it. In addition, she is still following Professor McGonagall, so few people really pay attention to her. .

But this time it was different. The Daily Prophet was the largest-selling newspaper, and Ada was still on the front page. It was hard not to notice.Moreover, in this report, Ada is neither a casual character, nor a poor victim, nor a violent murderer, but the key figure who first found the clues to the secret room.

Such a little-known little person suddenly becomes such a key role and becomes Dumbledore's indispensable helper. Naturally, people will be interested and want to know more about how she does all this.

The editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet is worthy of being the editor-in-chief. He is fully worthy of the chair under his butt and knows how to attract readers' attention.The editor complied with the readers' call and satisfied everyone's curiosity in that day's evening newspaper, reporting more news about Ada.

Through this report, the wizards not only knew that Ada had excellent grades and outstanding strength, but also knew that she had twice foiled the conspiracy of the mysterious man.In her first grade, she stopped Benedick Foley. In her third grade, she defeated Quirinus Quirrell with Harry Potter and protected the Philosopher's Stone.

Not only that, in addition to the text, the newspaper also included a photo of Ada wearing glasses.In the photo, she is looking intently into the distance, and her sudden smile makes many young readers call out, "Mom, I believe in love again."

If she hadn't been so young, Ada would probably have received a large number of love letters soon. Not only would the number far exceed that of Valentine's Day, but it would also make Lockhart squatting in the Ministry of Magic envious.

When the twins found Ada with the newspaper, her first reaction was "Mom, I've become successful", and then she quickly realized that there must be something fishy in it.

The Daily Prophet also reported on Welfare, and it mentioned Ada in passing, without even mentioning her name, except as "a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

But now, not only has his name been published, but Benedict Welfare and the Philosopher's Stone have also been mentioned.Apart from his status as an orphan and the matters in Little Whinging, he mentioned everything that could be mentioned.

If Dumbledore didn't nod to this report, Fudge and the Daily Prophet would dare to publish it. Ada wouldn't believe it!I just don’t know what kind of medicine Dumbledore is selling this time. Is he planning to trick me again?

Dumbledore, who was reading the newspaper, didn't know these little thoughts of Ada.Dumbledore just felt that Ada had grown up and matured, and with Lockhart's personal demonstration this year, Ada would not be dazzled by these vain honors and become vain.

After all, what evil could Albus Dumbledore have?

In short, in one sentence, Ada is famous!Now, among the students studying at Hogwarts, she is second only to Harry Potter, the boy-who-lived.

===Dividing line===

The lights were on in the crowded streets, and people on both sides of the road came and went, saying hello and saying a few words to each other.An owl flew here and flew into an ordinary, yet strange house.

The house is ordinary because it is neither illegal like the Burrow, nor weird like many wizards' houses.The house is strange because it is clearly built there, and there are owls flying in and out, but the people passing by cannot see it. Even the neighbors on the left and right ignore the house.

The interior decoration style of the house was very popular in Europe a few decades ago and has not changed after so many years. It seems that the owner of the house is a nostalgic person.

The living room was elegantly decorated and cozy at the same time, and a house elf was looking through a photo album.In the photo album are photos of a man from childhood to adulthood. If you look carefully, you will find that this man has some resemblance to Ada.

The owl that flew in through the open window was standing on the house elf's head, pecking at the elf's long ears, as if complaining about the elf for allowing him to fly so far.

The house elf didn't care at all, and opened the letter that the owl brought back. In addition to a reply letter, there was also a squarely folded newspaper clipping in the envelope.The elf opened the newspaper clipping and read the report carefully. After reading, he gently touched the photo on the newspaper clipping with his hand. His eyes the size of tennis balls were full of joy and pride.

Putting the reply letter and the newspaper clipping in his hand, the house elf turned around and went to another room. The elf said softly: "Master, there is a letter from the UK, and it also comes with a newspaper clipping, a newspaper clipping related to the lady."
