Holy Light Professor at Hogwarts

Chapter 37 Lame Excuses

On Halloween night, Hogwarts Castle was much calmer than usual, probably because of the troll incident at the dinner. Kirk walked from the first floor to the principal's office without meeting a single night-walking student.

However, the door to the principal's office is different from before. There are signs of damage to the gargoyle, half of its wings are missing, and one of its ears is missing, making the already ugly beast even more abstract.

Has the principal's office been invaded?No wonder Dumbledore didn't go to the toilet on the first floor with the professors just now.

Kirk did not say the password, but got under the broken half of the wing, walked up the spiral staircase, and knocked on the door of the principal's office.

"Come in, Dean Kirk."

Kirk pushed the door open and entered. The principal's office was in a mess. The ugly phoenix's shelf fell to the ground, the sorting hat was thrown in the corner, the drawers of the desk and cabinet were opened, and the contents were scattered all over the floor.

The portraits of previous headmasters on the wall were also staggered and badly damaged. Dumbledore was holding a wand to repair these portraits.

"Anyone here?"

"Obviously."

"Voldemort?"

"Probably, the principals in the painting should have seen him, but they were cast under a confusion spell and were all damaged."

Dumbledore acted calmly, it was obvious that the intruder did not get what he wanted.

Kirk took away a few pieces of parchment on the chair and sat down: "Don't you think what happened at night was strange? A Defense Against the Dark Arts professor failed to spot a troll, and when the troll attacked the students, you 's office was attacked again."

Dumbledore did not look back, nor was he surprised by Kirk's suspicion: "You doubt Professor Quirrell?"

Kirk shrugged: "Albania, right? You should have known about it for a long time. By the way, where did Professor Snape find him?"

"On the third floor, near his office, he said he was frightened and wanted to take a rest."

"Lame excuse."

"There's no evidence, right?"

Kirk stood up, his purpose had been achieved: "As long as you know what's going on."

Dumbledore turned back and smiled: "I'll let Severus keep an eye on him."

After entering November, the weather became very cold. The mountains around the school were gray and covered with ice and snow. The lake surface was as cold and hard as quenched steel. Every morning, there was frost on the ground.

Every morning, Hagrid could be seen from the upstairs window, wrapped in a long moleskin coat, wearing rabbit fur gloves and huge beaver fur boots, cleaning broomsticks on the Quidditch pitch. Frost.

But not everyone has such a good physique. As the weather turns colder, many students are suffering from colds, but the work in the school hospital has not increased. After all, colds are just a spoonful of magic medicine; but the cold makes the students' vitality plummet. , so there won’t be any weird symptoms.

Most of the students are reluctant to leave the warm common room except for classes. Even the fireplace in the campus hospital common room is often burning all day long; but Kirk knows that his three students are not staying there just to keep warm. Here, after all, you have to walk through the cold from the dormitory to the common room.

Their progress on the path of the Holy Light is quite gratifying. Both Harry and Ron have felt the presence of the Holy Light. The two-thirds selection rate is generally a very good result.

As for Hermione's inability to feel the Holy Light, Kirk had already expected it. After all, Hermione was the first to discover the Book of Holy Light, and she had tried it a long time ago.

Kirk has nothing to do. After all, the Holy Light is a very idealistic thing, and he can't help Hermione much. After this period of trying, Hermione also knows that she has no talent in this area, so The level of effort in magic is even greater.

Of course, not all outdoor activities have been frozen by the cold weather. Students' enthusiasm for Quidditch has not diminished at all. Teams from various colleges have been competing for the right to use the Quidditch pitch. After a long time, even Kirk was approached by the team captains of various colleges, hoping that he could write a note approving the use of the stadium.

But Kirk refused, after all, he didn't even know he had such power.

If you were to ask about the hottest topic at Hogwarts during this period, it would naturally be the matter of Harry Potter making an exception and joining the Quidditch team.

Although Gryffindor's Captain Wood decided to keep Harry's participation strictly secret and use him as a secret weapon of their team; however, the news that Harry would serve as Seeker still leaked out.

As a result, some people said that Harry would play well, while others said that they would hold up the mattress and run under Harry to prevent him from falling.

But Harry in public opinion has no time to care about these things now. All his spare time is occupied. In addition to attending classes and completing assignments assigned by professors, he also has to participate in Quidditch training, and he has to spare two hours every day. time, pray according to what is written in the golden book.

It was really lucky that Harry now had a friend like Hermione. Without Hermione, he really didn't know how he could complete so much homework.

However, he was also a little embarrassed. Although Hermione didn't say it, every day when he and Ron were praying in the prayer room, Hermione, who was leaning on the table reading, would always cast envious glances.

The day before Harry's first Quidditch match, the three of them had finished their day of lessons and were heading to the hospital common room.

The three of them walked carefully on the frost-covered path to avoid slipping; they got very close and warmed themselves with the limited golden light group that Ron had gathered, which was slightly larger than his fist.

Hermione kept mumbling that if she could make the beetle more realistic during class, she would get another point.

Harry was holding the book "The Origins of Quidditch" in his hand. In order to excuse him last time, Professor Kirk said that he had tutored him for this book. In fact, he had not read it at all. In order to ease the coming of the game these days, Due to the pressure, he took this book out from the library, and the result was quite interesting.

Although it didn't help the game, at least he knew:

There are seven hundred ways to foul in Quidditch, and they all appeared in a World Cup match in [-]; the seeker is usually the smallest and fastest player, and the most serious Quidditch accidents It seems to have happened to them all; although deaths during Quidditch matches are rare, referees are said to often disappear without a trace...

Just when he wanted to see if these referees had been found in the end, a pair of big hands pulled the book away from behind him.
