Hogwarts on the tip of the tongue

In this case"

Professor McGonagall glanced at Professor Sprout, whose lips were trembling with anger, and then at Albus, who was suddenly stuck. He was so tired and wanted to retire. Dumbledore raised his eyebrows noncommittally. Now, all the colleges. Since your butt is no longer clean, you don’t need to think about remedial measures. Just discuss the results together.

After thinking for a few seconds, Professor McGonagall cleared her throat and took over the conversation seriously.

"It seems that we need to discuss an appropriate response plan as soon as possible. Otherwise, if this continues, the teachers and students of Hogwarts may go hungry from time to time in the future."

As the deputy headmistress of Hogwarts, Minerva McGonagall quickly figured out the root cause of everything.

The school did not deal with the previous small-scale vegetable garden dispute between Ravenclaw and Gryffindor more seriously, or did not carry out some targeted education and punishment, which led to the students starting to gradually Think of this behavior as a tool to consider.

Obviously, simply deducting points or confinement or punishing labor may be a little weak from the current perspective.

And if you want to go beyond the scope of the original school rules and formulate and implement some new rules, you need to go through discussions with all the core faculty and staff. Even Professor Dumbledore cannot just open his mouth and directly formulate new punishment measures.

However, in the face of this new emergency, Professor McGonagall could not think of any particularly effective way to deal with it.

While Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore were thinking about the solution, Elena had already walked to Professor Sprout and whispered to the pudgy witch about the ins and outs of the whole matter. She currently only knew about Hufflepuff House. The faculty and staff vegetable garden was robbed, but judging from the current situation in the office, it seems that all the colleges are involved.

After a while, before the professors could reach a consensus, Elena, after listening to Professor Sprout's explanation, raised her head and silently glanced at Professor Dumbledore and the deans of Hogwarts. Said softly and calmly.

"Um, I'm sorry, professors. Could you please let me interrupt first."

There is no doubt that "stealing vegetables" is indeed a part of "Hogwarts Happy Farm".

But even when the little game in the previous life was the most popular, that is, taking away some melons to eat, it would still leave a lot of money for the original owner, and it would never be like taking away the land directly like now. .

According to Elena's understanding, this is like the most classic sentence said by Mr. Lu Xun

If the little wizard picks a melon after class and eats it, it is not considered stealing at Hogwarts.The ones to take care of are the greedy badgers, snakes, lions and eagles.And once you discover this situation, you have to pull out your wand and gently walk over

In other words, this incident must be dealt with seriously, and the students involved must pay the price. Whether it is a blatant banditry or an act of scrapping the ground, it has violated the bottom line of principle.

"First of all, I suggest that the house elves in the kitchen take a collective holiday tonight and stop serving the next dinner."

Elena paused for a moment, looked around at the professors who were hesitant to speak, and continued quickly.

"As an alternative, a crucible and corresponding basic kitchen utensils are placed in front of each student, so that at least they can use their hard-working hands to transform the stolen food into delicious dishes if they have the ability."

In fact, after learning the complete plot from Professor Sprout, the first thought that came to Elena's mind was that these innocent children were probably too beautiful. Are the Hogwarts kitchens still a bunch of submissive tool elves who dare not resist the wizard's demands?

Even if they successfully steal the dish, there is still a gap of at least several thousand years between the raw materials and the delicious dishes. This cannot be filled by a simple "magic potion cooking class" or two.

"Oh" Professor Sprout glanced at Elena in surprise.

According to her idea, she originally just tried her best to recover the stolen vegetables, and then, while ensuring that the dinner went smoothly, she severely criticized and warned the students who participated. Such a method of directly cutting off food and draining the bottom of the cauldron, she really didn't expect it.

Only then did Professor Sprout suddenly realize that the little witch in front of him was no ordinary first-year student. She was the first wizard chef to take charge of the Hogwarts kitchen in so many years.

"But Miss Kaslana, regardless of whether your suggestion is feasible or not, there are two problems that need to be solved first."

Professor McGonagall pondered for a few seconds, shook her head and continued.

"Students in the four colleges all had vegetables that they snatched from the vegetable garden this afternoon. So what should the faculty and staff do? Also, just letting them cook by themselves, isn't it a bit of a joke? This is not in line with our traditional punishments. Way."

Obviously, judging from Elena's words, the so-called suspension of dinner service in the Hogwarts kitchen is not just for students in the four houses of Hogwarts.

This is normal. After all, it is difficult for professors to enjoy delicious food with peace of mind while watching the children cooking for themselves with sad faces. Although Professor McGonagall expressed doubts about the severity of this punishment.

The most important thing at the moment is that the staff vegetable garden has been taken over by Hufflepuff students. Although in theory, it is not particularly troublesome to use magic or order the house elves to "transform" the vegetables back directly.

But just as Dumbledore has always emphasized in the previous discussion that Hufflepuff House used the wrong way to fight against mistakes, then as Hogwarts professors, they should be more careful when dealing with this matter. Be careful and careful not to make the same problem again.

"The first question is very simple. Professor Snape and I will be responsible for the cooking of the faculty seats tonight. As for the ingredients, I, Hagrid and Professor Sprout will temporarily find some substitutes later. ."

Elena shrugged her shoulders, glanced at Professor Snape who was hesitant to speak, and said quickly.

"Don't refuse so hastily, Professor Snape. The main part is still done by me. You are mainly responsible for the soup, liquid food, and the pre-processing of some ingredients. This is a special situation. It will not be the same in the future. To say the least, as Huo As a member of the Gwarts faculty, you need to have dinner too, right?”

"Hmph, just this time."

Snape hesitated for a moment, looked around at his professors, snorted with a cold face, and reluctantly said that thanks to the reforms in the Potions class these days, the Potions Master has a lot of knowledge about cooking. There's not that much resistance anymore.

"As for the second point, of course it's not just that simple."

Elena nodded with satisfaction, a smile of eagerness hanging on her lips.

"In fact, in response to this emergency, I have prepared a series of updated plans, um, I mean response measures. As for the specific situation, I can give you a brief explanation first. First, I will call it Huo Gwartz Potato Standard Plan"
