Professor of Pharmacy at Hogwarts

His whole body exploded and completely turned into a pool of blood, slowly flowing on the ground, and finally seeping into the ground, leaving only a dark red dry patch in place.

This picture only appeared for a moment and disappeared quickly.

But this moment was fatal.

The three elements of Apparition: purpose, determination, and calmness.

You must have an extremely clear outline of the goal in your mind, then have the determination to teleport yourself to the destination, and finally wave the wand calmly, recite the spell, and whoosh——

As a master of Apparition, Alexis can use Apparition anytime and anywhere. As long as there is no forbidden magic, he is as familiar with Apparation as ordinary people breathing and walking.

But after the scene of himself being shot appeared, Apparition was no longer familiar.

At that moment, he lost his purpose, determination and calmness.

Losing the goal, that is, having a vague impression of the destination in the mind, may directly transport the person to an inexplicable place, or directly twist the person into a knot or tear him into two pieces.

Without determination, the usual manifestation is that one part of the body stays where it is and the other part is transported to the destination.

Not being able to be calm and calm is the most fatal thing and can happen at any time.

After the shot scene appeared, Alexis panicked.

What he was panicking about was not the consequences of not following the three elements of Apparition. As a master of Apparition, he could still handle this danger.

What made him panic was that his premonition came true.

He is sensitive to gunfire and fearful of firearms.

This kind of fear cannot be overcome by simply overcoming it.Even the last time he faced a gun, it was blown to pieces along with the person holding the gun.

But he was still afraid of guns.

Or rather, what he fears is Muggles' powerful ability to invent and create weapons.

There was a moment of panic, and then it returned to normal. Alexis' body stiffened in place for a moment, and then disappeared.

The next moment, Alexis appeared outside the bar, covering her arms.

In a dazed moment, Alexis changed the destination in her mind to outside the bar instead of behind the bar.

There was a numb feeling in my right arm, and my fingers seemed to lose control. Then, pain grew from the numb and itchy feeling.

Alexis gritted her teeth and handed the wand to her left hand, waving it back and forth in the air.

When he was a boy, he was trained by Grindelwald to cast spells with his left hand on the island of Nurmengard.

For a right-handed person, it is simply torture to use his left hand to do things that his right hand should do, and to complete them as completely as his right hand.

Alexis has never tried his left hand since leaving Nurmengard.

Thank God, thanks to Grindelwald, he could even think of this situation. He will definitely help you clear out all the books in the London Library when you go back on New Year's Day.

Alexis thought to himself and raised his right hand.

"Fire Escape Bodyguard"

Gloomy blue flames spurted out from the tip of the stick, twisted and rotated in the air, and turned into two fire dragons. The fire dragons opened their mouths and roared silently, and then wrapped around the bar with lightning speed.

Until then, the people in the bar had just chased him out.

"If I were you, I wouldn't take this step."

Alexis 'kindly' reminded an impatient burly man, and then waved her wand again, erecting a defensive charm in front of her before they could shoot.

The faint blue flames surrounded the bar, forming a perfect circle. The fire dragon disappeared, and the flames continued to rise, forming a high wall of flame between the bar and the outside world, isolating the two worlds.

The commotion here has begun to attract the surrounding residents, and people in twos and threes are starting to appear on the street looking around.

Fortunately, this is a gathering place for pure wizards, so there is no need to worry about Muggles finding out.

"It's fire escape protection!"

"Grindelwald!"

"No! Alexis can use it too! It's Alexis!"

"What is he doing here?"

"Isn't that Kaba's bar?"

There was an exclamation from the crowd, and then more and more people gathered and started talking in low voices.

Alexis came to the flames, separated only by a wall from the woman.

"Say it and maybe I can let you go."

What responded to him was a round of bullets that made a strange clicking sound.

Alexis turned around and left with his back to the bar. He raised his hand and waved as he walked.

The blue flames suddenly surged and swept inwards.

Waves of wailing came from the blazing flames, which silenced the wizards who were watching.

After an unknown amount of time, the fire gradually weakened and eventually went out, revealing the complete bar and ashes on the ground in front of the bar.

When the dry wind from the desert blows, the fine sand mixed with it flies all over the sky and disperses quickly.

In a ditch two blocks away from Kaba Bar, a one-eyed man emerged in embarrassment. He looked back fiercely and quickly disappeared deep into the alley.

……

Hogsmeade, Alexis' residence.

There was a knock on the door, and Blake took out the key in a sloppy manner, opened the door, and walked into the house carelessly.

At this time, the layout of the room had completely changed. The furniture in the living room had not been moved to one side, but was replaced by a huge table. There were chairs beside the table. Blake counted nine chairs in total.

He walked into the kitchen, took a bottle of wine from the cabinet and took a sip. After walking around the house, he returned to the living room.

"Strange, where is Alexis?"

Before Blake could think of an answer, Christie walked into the room holding a stack of plates.

"Christie?"

"Blake."

"Where's Alexis?"

Christie placed the plates one after another and shook her head.

"Maybe still at Hogwarts."

Blake curled his lips and didn't say much. He put down the bottle, got up and helped Christie start to arrange it.

The days in winter are short, especially for a high-dimensional country like the UK.Soon the sun was setting.

Lupine was the third person to enter the room.

"Where's Alexis? Didn't I come with you?"

Black asked after hugging Lupine and saying hello.

"I thought he had come over."

Lupine said in surprise.

"Christie and I stayed here all afternoon and didn't see anyone from Alexis."

The three of them looked at each other and then realized that Alexis was missing.

……

Hogwarts main building, in the principal's office.

Tomorrow is Christmas. The arrangements in the school have been made, and all the students who were going home for the holiday have left this afternoon.

Dumbledore called for Professor McGonagall.

"Minerva, I have other things to do tomorrow."

Professor McGonagall pushed up her glasses and was speechless at Dumbledore's words.

But over the years, she has gotten used to it.

Dumbledore was very organized, but occasionally he would cause problems for her, like now.

According to the procedure, all teachers and students will dine together at tomorrow's Christmas dinner in the restaurant, and the principal of Hogwarts will deliver a 'speech'.

From what Dumbledore meant, it was obvious that this task fell to her again.

"Thank you, Minerva."

After Dumbledore finished speaking, he put on his unique robe and stood up with a bunch of wrapped gifts.

"How about this?" Dumbledore asked. "I'm going to meet an old friend."

Professor McGonagall didn't even bother to look, and just nodded.

Anyway, Dumbledore's taste is not appreciated by ordinary people, and he doesn't have many normal robes.Everything is the same.
