Reborn at Hogwarts

After hastily leaving the eighth floor, Ivan wanted to return directly to the Ravenclaw common room for a lunch break, but after a little hesitation, he temporarily changed his route and came to the Hogwarts auditorium.

Although it's not time for the Halloween dinner, the auditorium is already decorated. Almost a thousand bats fluttered across the walls and ceiling, and another thousand hovered over the table like low black clouds, making the candle flames flicker in pumpkin bellies.

"This can't be a real bat..." Ivan felt a chill, he had a natural aversion to this kind of creature.

Ivan saw Hagrid dragging a huge jack-o-lantern around the Gryffindor table, and seemed to be hesitant to put it here.

"Hey, Ivan, here!" A call came from the long table in Ravenclaw, Ivan turned his head and looked, Eddie was holding a chicken leg in his hand, and was waving his arms happily to himself, several other roommates They're all here too, each of them is full of greasy food.

Ivan even saw Qiu Zhang, who was eating a pudding in small bites, chatting and laughing with the friends beside her. He felt that the girl seemed a little familiar, and after careful identification, it turned out to be Penello Clearwater who helped him get rid of Prefect Allen at the sorting ceremony.

Seemingly aware of Ivan's eyes, Penello raised his head and glanced, with a surprised expression on his face, but then he still smiled politely, then turned his head and continued talking with Qiu Zhang.

How did these two people play together? This is not mentioned in the original book... Forget it, the original book doesn't talk about everything.

Ivan frowned slightly, and then he felt relieved. He walked to Eddie and sat down. He also rolled up his sleeves and took a fried golden and crispy chicken leg from the dinner plate.

"There is no class in the afternoon, do you still have to go to the library?" Eddie asked. His mouth was still full, and he rolled his eyes when he accidentally choked. Atwood on the side quickly patted him on the back.

"It sounds like you have some plans?" Ivan asked absently.

As a matter of fact, although he has always demanded himself with the principle of "staying alive" about the mysterious person who entered the Room of Requirement, he is indeed very curious. However, after thinking about it, he still thinks that overall, it is more likely that the other party is a senior student who knows the secret of the Room of Requirement.

Hearing this, Eddie looked around to make sure that no one was eavesdropping, then temporarily put down the unrecognizable chicken leg, put it close to Ivan's ear, and said mysteriously, "I'm going to follow Professor Searles this afternoon. "

"Why did you follow him?" Ivan asked calmly, his heart moved.

"Aren't you curious about where he came from?" Eddie said, "I checked the Hogwarts roster with a few Gryffindors, and there hasn't been a guy called Sayers in the last thirty years. "

"What does this mean? Hogwarts is not the only school in the world." Ivan shook his head, and then said, "Maybe he's from Ilvermorny? Maybe it's Beauxbatons? Or even Durmstrang?" It's also possible."

After hearing this, Eddie's entire face suddenly wrinkled.

"But his accent sounds like a local! Why would the British go to other schools? Hogwarts is the best school in the world! Dumbledore would not hire a foreign wizard to be our professor And we recently discovered that he didn't stay in the office after class, and we didn't know where he went! We followed him around the castle several times, but he seemed to realize that we were following him, and disappeared in the stairwell !"

"If it's not a hidden secret, how can you be afraid of being followed?" Finally, Eddie said in a conclusive tone.

Even Dumbledore would be terrified of being followed by a few little wizards. This reason is completely untenable... Ivan was helpless.

Having said that, the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts who was so amazing when he first appeared on the stage and quickly stretched his hips in less than ten minutes did make Ivan feel a little unexplainable abnormality.

This is not a so-called intuition, but a conclusion based on the information Qiu Zhang told him and Searles' performance in the last few classes.

After the first Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Professor Searles seemed to realize his lack of ability, and quickly changed the teaching method. Every class was perfunctory reading some content from the textbook. The young wizards complained, and there have been some rumors recently. It seems that several school managers have begun to put pressure on Dumbledore, demanding to replace this new professor who misunderstood his son.

Ivan vaguely felt that the movements of this Professor Searles were somewhat incongruous.

This reminded him of his distant relative Alger Rozier who rashly broke into Vesemir's house on his birthday a year ago.

There was also an inexplicable incongruity in his every move.

It's like...a marionette on a string.

Including his final arrest... The official statement is that after fleeing the scene, he felt unwilling and turned back to Vesemir's house to try to take hostages, but was caught on the spot by the Aurors who had been waiting here.

What kind of idiot would do such a thing?

From the beginning to the end of this incident, Ivan felt an unspeakable sense of weirdness.

Could it be that this Professor Searles has something to do with Alger Rozier... Ivan suddenly felt a chill rising from his back.

If this is the case, then he may have been involved in an unknown conspiracy unknowingly.

"Ivan? Ivan?" At this moment, Eddie's voice suddenly rang in his ears, and Ivan suddenly came back to his senses, seeing that his roommate had finished eating the chicken legs and was waving his hands in front of him, "Why are you so dumbfounded?" ? Do you want to go together?"

"Oh, it's okay, I suddenly remembered something." Ivan smiled awkwardly, and said in a low voice, "I won't go, I'm going to the library to read. You'd better be careful, Mr. Sells After all, he is a professor, you are following him secretly..."

"Oh, well, well, I know it." Eddie interrupted him impatiently, "Then go read your books, see you in the evening, and I'll let you know if I find anything." After finishing speaking, he didn't Waiting for Ivan's reply, he dragged Atwood away in a hurry.

Why does it feel like I've been rejected... Ivan rolled his eyes.

Since Eddie insisted on following Professor Searles, he didn't try to stop him, nor did he intend to go on an "adventure" with him.

In the final analysis, the relationship between the two is just roommates. Although the two talked before the sorting ceremony, they are only slightly closer than other people, not to the point of heart-to-heart.

If you continue to persuade, you may be suspected.

If you want to play detective games, you can go, anyway, there are old bees in the school, so it's not easy to kill people, at most, they will be seriously injured.

After all, not everyone knows the way of "dog" like me... Ivan shook his head, took two chicken legs from the dinner plate, and went to the library while eating.

He is also going to study Fiendfire's counter-curse again to ensure that the plan to destroy the Horcrux is foolproof.
