In the last month of his first year, Hoffa no longer worried about the future, and after being discharged from the hospital, he was no longer eager to accomplish anything.
He spent most of his time in the library, preparing for exams and reading "Hogwarts: A History of the School". In his spare time, he and his two friends went for a walk by the Black Lake and played with kites and frisbees.
, sometimes I sit on the grass and drink some iced juice.
Miranda no longer showed signs of darkening, and Aglaia no longer thought about being the boss.
They are just like three ordinary students, playing, studying and chatting.
Sometimes, Hoffa would go to Joey's place to stay with Maya, taking Aglaia and Miranda with him.
Maya now completely regards him as her own kind. She often even catches raw fish from the black lake and feeds it to him forcibly. However, this kind of kindness is difficult for Hoffa to accept. The trio is often chased by a big bird.
Flee in despair.
However, as Maya grew older, Joey often expressed worry that he would take Maya back to the United States before the British Ministry of Magic found out.
For all this, Hoffa did not stop him. He calmly accepted the fact that he might have to separate from Maya and Joey.
He lived in the moment.
Soon after, the final exam came as scheduled.
Hoffa got pretty high marks in Charms and Transfiguration, but the rest of the classes were mediocre.
Miranda.
She still got ordinary scores in every class, and she just passed every class. Even the curse, she just passed.
As for Aglaia, of course, she ranked first in every subject, including the transfiguration class. (Hoffa's transfiguration theory and transfiguration history tests were not as good as hers.)
After the scores came down, all three of them passed the first grade level without any major surprises.
After the arrival of June, the weather is getting hotter and the semester is coming to an end.
Before the graduation ceremony, Gorsak and Dippet returned to school from Romania.
They didn't say anything special about what happened on the day of the Quidditch final, even though everyone talked about it every day about seeing UFOs in the heavy rain on the day of the final.
At the graduation ceremony banquet, Dippet just gave some boring speeches, hoping that the graduating seventh-year Hogwarts students could work hard and so on.
In the end, since both Ravenclaw and Gryffindor failed to complete the Quidditch finals, the House Trophy was taken away by Hufflepuff.
But Hoffa doesn't care about this.
However, the day before leaving school, Hoffa received a letter from a senior student.
He was playing wizard chess with Miranda in front of the Ravenclaw window.
(Both of them are unwilling to play with Aglaia, because a game without suspense is not interesting at all)
The senior student handed Hoffa the letter and left.
Hoffa received the letter, and both friends joined in.
Aglaia: "Someone actually wrote to you. Is he selling wizard insurance?"
Miranda: "Is it a letter of love from a little girl?"
(Pawn: That must be the king's call, idiot!)
But both the two men and the chess piece guessed wrong.
After opening the letter, Hoffa saw a row of curled English letters.
------------------
What you did on the day of the final was very brave.
Principal Dippet would like to commend you privately.
Please come to the principal's office on the tenth floor of the main building quickly.
The password is Provence
Dumbledore's letters were, as always, unsigned.
After reading it, Aglaia said sourly: "Reward, and reward privately, Dippet is really stingy. Such a great contribution should be publicized at the graduation banquet, and I should also receive a reward, because I refined
Got the magic potion.”
Hoffa rolled his eyes, thinking you were born in the wrong era.
Miranda: "That will reveal that Hoffa is an Animagus. It's not good for him. Hoffa, you'd better go."
Without further ado, Hoffa put away the letter and hurried to the tenth floor of the main building.
He had been here before on Christmas Eve when he was chasing Miller, so he was quite familiar with it.
Arriving in front of the stone statue of the dripping monster, Hoffa announced the password, "Provence."
The monster spun open.
Going up the spiral staircase, Hoffa came to this legendary place for the first time, the principal's office.
However, it doesn't seem like there have been many changes here since Dumbledore's time.
The office is filled with various scrolls and books, with stairs leading directly to the second floor on both sides. Behind the principal's desk are six magnificent carved Roman columns.
A huge silver ball swayed back and forth in the back of the office like a pendulum, making a very slight ticking sound.
The walls were covered with portraits of the former headmasters and headmasters, and he even saw Sirius's great-great-grandfather on the wall.
When Hoffa came in, he heard vague voices, so he rested for a while by the doorway.
The voices were Principal Dippet, Vice Principal Gorshak and Dumbledore.
Gorshak: "Have everything been arranged?"
Dippet: "Well, the arrangements have been made. On the Far East side, I'd like to trouble you first."
Gorshak: "It's okay."
"What about you, have you finished handing over the matter?" Dippet asked.
"It's over." Gorshak said coldly.
"Albus, do you have any objections?"
"If it's just two years, I have no objection." Dumbledore said softly.
"Very well, you go ahead." Principal Dippet's voice was a little tired.
There were footsteps in the office, and two figures appeared in the doorway.
It's Gorshak and Albus Dumbledore.
Hoffa stood up from the waiting bench. This was the first time in recent days that he had close contact with Dean Gorshak, but the feeling of this contact was completely different from before.
Looking at the old man who once killed his son, Hoffa silently stepped aside. He had no intention of condemning him, he could only say that extraordinary people can do extraordinary things.
He walked past Hoffa very calmly, without saying much. It was no different from before.
Professor Dumbledore was much friendlier. He patted Hoffa on the shoulder: "Go in."
When Hoffa actually entered the office, he saw Principal Dippet, who had always had a sinister expression on his face, but his eyes couldn't help but turn to his left side.
There must be a stab wound left by Nimon there.
Armando Dippet looked Hoffa up and down for a long time, his eyes especially lingering on his ears for a long time, and finally his expression softened a little.
"Hoffa Bach. Really?"
Hoffa nodded. As a relatively unknown stranger, it was not easy for the principal to remember his name.
"In July last year, Albus told me that he had met an unregistered French descendant in London. I didn't pay attention to it. Now it seems that I was negligent."
Hoffa scratched his head and said nothing.
Armando stood up, coughed twice, and said: "As the principal, I have always made clear rewards and punishments. You took the initiative to help Hogwarts. This is very unusual and courageous. I will record this matter in
In the history of the school, you will also be awarded a medal for special contributions."
Hoffa raised his eyebrows, but before he could speak.
Dippet continued: "However, I think these things are not very attractive to a Ravenclaw. So I prepared this for you."
Dippet picked up a silver watch from the table and threw it to Hoffa.
Hoffa took it and looked at it. It was very heavy. It was a very sophisticated but old watch.
The watch is round, simple and elegant in appearance, with a silver case and a brown dragon leather strap.
There are ticking star-point dials on the dial. Some of these dials mark the time, but there are also some unknown scales. These scales are 1X, X, X, 4X, and 5X.
"Francois's magic watch," Dippet said.
"Put it on and take a look."
Hoffa obeyed and put on his watch.
The moment the cold dial touched the skin, a red pointer on the dial floated, pointed to the 0.1X position, and stopped moving.
Dippet: "Did you see the red pointer inside? The red pointer represents the amount of magic power. 1X is the magic value possessed by a standard adult wizard."
