Drinking black tea calmly at Hogwarts

Chapter 309 During the Cold War

The reason why Zhang Qiu ran away Zhang Xu only heard Fu Rong vaguely mention it, Zhang Xu only knew that the scene was embarrassing at the time, but he didn't know exactly how embarrassing it was.

It's just Zhang Xu's reaction to Zhang Qiu now, it's worth going to Cedric with a bottle of wine and a bottle of Veritaserum on the weekend.

During the meal, Zhang Xu listened to what the students were talking about as usual.

Ignore the useless information that Professor Weasley is injured in class today, and some students hope that Miss Delacour, who beat Professor Weasley into the school infirmary, will replace Professor Weasley as the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, students What they talked about most was what happened on Valentine's Day night.

Today's students basically believe that Voldemort has returned, and many students also mentioned that their own families have also accepted this view.

It's just that Fudge, the Minister of Magic, is still holding on in the media, assuring readers that it's all the personal actions of Death Eaters.Because in the past, Death Eaters would only kill opponents and innocent people, but this time Death Eaters not only kill but also rob money.

What Zhang Xu was most concerned about was the reaction of the students in the Snake Academy. After all, the students in the Snake Academy were inextricably linked with the Death Eaters. It would not be surprising that the entire academy would follow Voldemort.

The information Zhang Xu got was that since last year, the students of the Snake Academy have been very conflicted. It is not easy for them to stand in line. Now both sides are doubting their position.

But after a series of family attacks on Valentine's Day night, rumors came out today that many families began to have doubts about the Death Eaters' policy.

As for the Malfoy trio, there was nothing strange about their recent behavior.When it's time to bully the younger students, he bullies the younger students, and when it's time to fight with the Harry trio, he fights with the Harry trio.

After dinner, Zhang Xu came to Professor Scarlet's office honestly.

Since the end of the holiday a month ago, Zhang Xu borrowed a gun from Scarlett by violent means to take the ring of Mavologunte for his own safekeeping, and the two have fallen into a cold war.

After all, Zhang Xu used this ring to trap the Death Eaters in Azkaban, and now the holder of this ring is naturally the enemy of the Death Eaters.

He took the blame for himself, so Zhang Xu had to wear the ring with him during this time.

Scarlet knew the reason why Zhang Xu asked her for the ring, but knowing that didn't mean she agreed with Zhang Xu's idea.

After the communication was fruitless, someone Zhang launched a surprise attack on Scarlet and snatched away the ring that she hung on her chest as a pendant.

Today was the first time Zhang Xu came to her office after the cold war between the two started.

Sitting at the desk, Professor Scarlett, who was drinking tea and reading Sophie's World with gusto, saw Zhang Xu coming in, and casually pointed to a table not far from the desk. Said: "The homework will be corrected by you, and you can leave after correcting."

After Professor Scarlet finished speaking, he continued to drink tea and read books on his own.

The office suddenly fell into a strange silence, except for the occasional sound of flipping books and the rustle of the quill writing on the parchment, there was no sound for a long time.

The two of them were like two children competing with each other. Whoever speaks first loses the game.

I don't know how long it took, but after correcting a student's homework from the Lion Academy, Zhang Xu found that what was written on the next piece of parchment was not today's homework, but a letter with exquisite lace.

Zhang Xu read it and found that it was a love letter written by someone to Scarlet.It is estimated that someone asked his godson to help him get caught in the homework.

Professor Zhang has encountered love letters in his homework quite often in the past two years, but he treats these love letters as compositions to correct, and then sends them back together with normal homework.

&n

bsp;It even happened that students sent the love letter to Professor Zhang for correction in order not to be embarrassing when sending the love letter.When encountering such students, Professor Zhang's method is to make public comments directly after mosaicing the names and before class.

So Professor Zhang, regardless of what Professor Scarlet did before, imitated Snape's handwriting and tone and corrected this love letter as a composition. I found a lot of big and small problems such as smoothness and lace asymmetry.

After correcting this composition, Professor Zhang found out that this composition was put at the end, which means that today's homework has been corrected.

"I'm done." Zhang Xu said to Professor Scarlett.

Professor Scarlett was still looking down at the book, but he just waved his hand to indicate that the other party could leave.

Until Zhang Xu left the office, the two of them only spoke a few words from beginning to end.

On the second night, neither of them said a word.

Professor Scarlett was still sitting there reading a book.

Zhang Xu sat directly at the desk to correct his homework, and left after correcting his homework.

On the third night, things changed a bit.

Zhang Xu looked at the time after finishing his homework. It was already February 1996, 2, the first day of the Lunar New Year in China.

So Zhang Xu bowed his hands to Scarlet and said, "Happy New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai, I wish you a happy New Year."

A red envelope that had been prepared on Scarlet's desktop flew in front of Zhang Xu.

After receiving the red envelope, Zhang Xu thanked him and left, ending the three-day confinement.

Zhang Xu, who was walking back to his office, squeezed the red envelope. The coin inside should be a copper coin.

The time has just passed by, and now the students' attention is focused on the Hogwarts school that has just been established and will represent Hogwarts to Beauxbatons to participate in the three-school Quidditch competition during the Easter holiday. on the team.The students paid so much attention to the matter that few people even discussed the Quidditch match between the Badger Yard and the Snake Yard on the weekend.

Zhang Xu came to Hogsmeade during the Quidditch battle between the Badger Yard and the Snake Yard on Saturday, and someone asked him to come out for a talk today.

The safest place in Hogsmeade today is the Interesting Café. The customers in the Café are all Aurors who are resting in the Auror Office of the Ministry of Magic today.

Starting from Bloody Valentine's Day, the Aurors in the Auror Office started working overtime, working at least ten hours a day, and it wasn't until this weekend that the office director, Rufus Scrimgeour, gave them a day off on the weekend.

So those single Aurors came to relax in this coffee shop with a good reputation in the office.

Just when the Aurors were playing games and trying to attract the attention of the three waiters on the first floor with witty words, a sudden silence from the door swept the entire cafe.

The appearance of Rufus Scrimgeour made these Aurors immediately quiet down and looked at him quietly. During this period of time, they were often scolded by this leader.

"What are you looking at me for?" Scrimgeour said to the Aurors, waving his hand, "keep playing with you."

Zhang Xu, who was feeding ginger with dried fish, was relieved when he heard the Aurors, and someone said in a low voice, "I thought you were here to arrest us and go back to work overtime."

The cafe quickly resumed the excitement just now.

Scrimgeour sat opposite Zhang Xu and said to him, "Sorry, Mr. Zhang. I'm late."

"It's okay, sometimes you can't help yourself when you do this kind of work." Zhang Xu smiled and said to Scrimgeour, "So, do you want to get a Gwent card first?"
