On the other side, Hogwarts Forestry.

"Everyone, keep your magic posture, keep your head up, your chest out, and your feet together!"

"Very good, that's it, hold on for another quarter of an hour and we'll take a break."

"In order to defend our rights, Elena is still checking her body in the principal's office. But you start to cry tired after just a little bit of exertion. Aren't you ashamed?"

Hermione and Hannah faced all the little wizards side by side, standing at the front of the queue. While leading the various actions of the [Magic Posture] that Elena mentioned yesterday, they looked back and forth between the little wizards with stern eyes.

Wander.

"Harry, do you know what aroused Granger? Why does it feel more severe than Elena's?" Draco Malfoy touched his friend next to him with his elbow and asked in a low voice.

"How do I know, not only Hermione, but don't you think Hannah is also abnormal?" Noticing the gaze in front of him, Harry straightened his back quickly and replied in a low voice with a grimace.

As soon as training started this morning, Hannah led a group of Hufflepuff freshmen to "educate" all the spiky-headed little wizards who disobeyed the arrangements one by one - the same thing as Elena on the Hogwarts Express.

The two methods of "education" are exactly the same.

Even Ron, who was once one of the "Moonlight Eight", was personally beaten by Hermione and Hannah for questioning the intensity of training, let alone a young wizard.

"Hannah, I'm not surprised. Harry, you haven't seen how scary Hufflepuff is with Elena's head..." Draco Malfoy, whose forehead was still slightly red and swollen, had a complicated expression.

said.

As one of the first batch of Slytherin warriors to be "killed", he was naturally included in the sequence of young wizards defending the common room, and he was the bravest group - after all, from the position of "corpse",

He almost broke into the belly of the Hufflepuff camp.

After Hufflepuff took the initiative to reconcile, many senior Slytherin sisters had a good impression of him. Even Marcus, the Slytherin captain who had never looked at him in the past, took the initiative to come over.

Patted him on the shoulder.

Needless to say, Draco thought for a moment and understood the reason why Elena knocked him unconscious. In this way, no matter whether he won or lost, he would not be marginalized by Slytherin House.

"I heard a little bit about it. It is said that Marcus from your college and Cedric from Hufflepuff wanted to confess their love for each other at the same time, and then they started fighting. Is this true?" Harry's lips moved.

I moved, eager to get some more detailed information from Draco.

"Of course not. Big sister, it's because of me..." Draco Malfoy shook his head, his voice was subconsciously louder, and he said rather guiltily.

In an instant, two sharp eyes met Draco Malfoy and Harry Potter from the front.

"Draco, Harry, don't whisper!" X2

Hermione and Hannah's voices came immediately.

The two little boys who were talking in a low voice trembled all over, quickly closed their mouths and stood up straight.

"Tch." Not far away, Ron, who just happened to hear the conversation between the two, let out a low chuckle, "Malfoy, you are daydreaming again. How could it be possible that the eldest sister is because of you..."

"Ron!" Hermione narrowed her eyes in displeasure and snorted coldly.

For a moment, everyone was silent.

Looking around at the little wizards standing in front of them, Hermione and Hannah exchanged tired looks. They began to understand a little bit the responsibilities and pressures that Elena, who was standing in this position, had to bear - when your words and deeds

When you can influence and guide a large group of people, you must work hard to make yourself convincing.

Outside the crowd, the tall and burly Hagrid looked at the group of first-year students who were even more obedient than yesterday. He rubbed his palms awkwardly and suddenly felt that the only reason for his existence was to help everyone solve the food problem.

The giant thought for a while, walked back to his hut silently, took down the big net hanging on the roof and put it on his shoulders. He put the dry bread used to feed the mutated fish in his arms, and walked step by step towards the sparkling water.

Walking to the edge of the black lake...

After all, everyone is working hard, and as an instructor, he cannot do nothing.

"I don't know what's going on with Elena now. It was just a curse confrontation between a group of students. How could she be so seriously injured? But since Professor Dumbledore is here to take charge of the examination and treatment, I think there should be no problem.

."

…

"Professor, is your phoenix lost? Or maybe it was caught halfway by some bad wizard?"

Time passed like a snail, and Elena felt as if she had returned to the last day before school started every summer vacation in her previous life.

The envelope addressed to the Lovegood family had already been secretly mixed in the pile of letters that were about to be sent out, and the sense of anticipation for what was about to happen to the Lovegood family was gradually weakening as time went by.

Elena shook her sore hand. She felt that she had been writing for at least two hours. However, letters from owls were still appearing continuously, and there was almost no sign of the number of letters in the office decreasing. Even the one invited by Dumbledore

I don’t live in the UK, so at the speed of the Phoenix, I should have flown back by now.

"Don't worry, Phoenix is ​​a magical creature with extraordinary magical power. They can not only devote themselves bravely and selflessly, but also know how to avoid various potential dangers intelligently."

Dumbledore, who was replying to the letter seriously, put down his pen, shook his head, and said with a smile.

There is an ancient legend in his family. A long time ago, a wizard ancestor of the Dumbledore family made a contract with a phoenix. Whenever the descendants of the family needed help, the phoenix would appear by his side.

, unless Dumbledore dies, the Phoenix will not leave easily.

For decades, even during the most dangerous and turbulent times in the magical world, Phoenix Fox has faithfully and perfectly completed all early warning and communication work.

"Well, I guess, maybe this is a difficult choice. After all, of the three things your new teacher hates most, one of them is being a child and the other is being a teacher." Dumbledore thought.

After thinking for a while, he added in a less firm tone, "However, I think if it is my request, he should agree."

"Actually, I prefer him to refuse." Elena stood up and stretched her aching shoulders, looked around the office, paused, and asked a little embarrassedly, "Um, by the way, professor, do you know the nearest bathroom?

How to leave? Don’t worry, I won’t take the opportunity to run away.”

"It's not too far, it's in the attic next to the bedroom." Dumbledore pointed to the wooden staircase behind the office study next to a large pile of bookshelves.

Like Professor McGonagall, Dumbledore's room is connected to his office and does not have a separate living room in the castle.

"Well, thank you."

The moment Elena walked up the stairs and disappeared on the first floor of the office, a firelight quietly appeared in Dumbledore's sight.

Phoenix Fox looked around carefully, blinked his big bright eyes, and handed a letter to the old man's hand.

squeak.

There was a sound of footsteps coming from the wooden staircase upstairs.

The beautiful fiery red bird opened its eyes and hurriedly drank some water next to the bird stand. Then with a soft snap, Dumbledore disappeared into the room again with a strange look on his face.
