Chapter 170: The days when the principal was away (modified)

Hagrid's capture and Professor Dumbledore's forced departure from Hogwarts spread throughout the castle overnight.
People in the castle panic: "Professor Dumbledore is gone, what shall we do?"
"The school will probably be closed soon!"
"Is Hogwarts without Dumbledore still the safest place in the world?"
"After he leaves, there will be attacks every day!"
Such discussions abound in the castle.
Dumbledore was gone, and the fear was spreading like never before, so the sun that warmed the castle's outer walls seemed not to shine through the mullioned windows.
Every face in the school looked apprehensive, and every laugh in the hallway seemed harsh and weird, and was quickly suppressed.
After Lockhart was captured, someone from the school was sent to Azkaban by the Ministry of Magic again. The important thing is that Ellen and their Defence Against the Dark Arts class are no longer taught.
Professor McGonagall, who was acting as president, and Professor Flitwick, the dean of Ravenclaw, called Allen to the office.
"Harris, in the current situation at the school, we can't find a suitable Defense Against the Dark Arts professor immediately." Professor McGonagall frowned and stared at Allen closely.
"As Dumbledore's course assistant, you performed very well. We have heard him praise you many times." Professor McGonagall took out a large neatly stapled parchment, and Allen looked at it. His name is-Hermione Granger.
"And classmates, I also think you have the ability to continue to lead everyone to learn. Professor Flitwick also praised you, thinking that you are the best student in Hogwarts history!" Professor McGonagall is obviously not suitable for this. The way of exaggerating, the tone is more blunt.
"Of course, your performance in the transfiguration class is almost no one can match." As if noticing that his tone was not very good, Professor McGonagall pursed his lips and praised him.
"The boss praises you a lot, and he doesn't hesitate to praise it. Then there must be a task to assign to you..." Allen, who is full of inner activities, did not say a word, and vaguely guessed that Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick had called him. purpose.
"You are very responsible for doing things for people, and you are extremely self-disciplined. Your classmates and professors speak highly of you. Therefore, we want to give you an important task."
Professor McGonagall was very serious, and solemnly asked Allen, "Lead the second-year students to continue learning Defense Against the Dark Arts, even if they just read some books."
Professor Flitwick nodded aside, looking proud.
It's not that they haven't considered letting the little wizards of the upper grades lead the students to study, such as Percy Weasley.
However, the little wizards of the upper grades may not be able to convince the students of the four academies; secondly, they may not be close to the mental states of the little wizards; thirdly, the little wizards are worried and very few can Study calmly as before.
The most important thing is that the Defence Against the Dark Arts course is large, and it is impossible to do it well only with a little wizard.
Under the discussion of several professors, the courses of other grades were either replaced by professors, or taught by little wizards.
In the second year, the emergence of elite wizards like Ellen was enough to reassure the professors that he would leave the defense against the dark arts learning in the second year to Ellen to arrange.
Under Professor Flitwick's expectant gaze, Allen nodded and accepted the task.
In essence, this task is not difficult for Allen, who has been a course assistant for some time.
Although his understanding of magic theory is not as profound as Dumbledore's, he is still familiar with the content of the course and can easily do it.
There was no objection from the four colleges for Allen to stand on the stage of Defense Against the Dark Arts.
The strong is respected, this is the truth that has not changed since ancient times.
Even Malfoy, the proud and arrogant who likes to find faults, has no objection.
Ever since Malfoy was rescued by Alan from the Eight-Eyed Giant Spider in the Forbidden Forest, he has rarely continued to target Alan, plus Harris’s pure-blood status... Therefore, the Slytherins are in the dark The performance in the magic defense class is also quite satisfactory.
In fact, Allen's course was particularly smooth. His fluent expression, complete and detailed lectures, profound knowledge...all of this made the second-grade little wizards respect and admire him.
In the student days, there will always be people who will impress other students very deeply. They are incredibly good and make people look up to them, and Allen is such a person.
Summer quietly came to the grounds around the castle; the sky, like the lake, turned into a light blue with purple light, and flowers as big as cabbages bloomed in the greenhouse.
Compared with the calm and calm in the Defence Against the Dark Arts class, the interior of the castle has become a mess.
Allen wanted to visit Penello and Hermione, but the visitors were blocked from the hospital~EbookFREE.me~We can't take any more risks," Madam Pomfrey opened the hospital door a crack. Seriously said to the visitors, "No, I'm sorry, the attacker is likely to come back and kill these people completely..."
Not only Madam Pomfrey, but the professors in the school looked more serious than usual, teaching students strictly and restraining them strictly.
The little wizards were ordered not to wander around without authorization, but to move in groups with other students in the castle.
In fact, the little wizards seemed very happy to have a teacher escorting them from one classroom to another, and Allen felt very bored.
However, one person seemed to particularly like this atmosphere of panic and suspicion.
Draco Malfoy walked around the school alive and well, as if he had just been appointed chairman of the boys' student council.
In fact, everyone understands his thoughts: He is the pure blood of Slytherin and will not be targeted by the heirs of the Secret Chamber; his father is the director of the school and has the right to vote and determine the ownership of the headmaster; he hates Dumbledore. , Dumbledore’s suspension was justified by him.
Such a smug Malfoy made Allen have the urge to beat him severely.
These days, Ravenclaw’s common room is always full of people.
Because after six o'clock in the evening, Ravenclaw students have nowhere else to go.
And they always have a lot to talk about. As a result, there are often people in the common room after midnight.
This also brought inconvenience to Allen's life. Allen has been looking for a chance to leave the castle these days. He wants to return to the forbidden forest while everyone is not paying attention, and find the way for the chickens, snakes and beasts to enter and exit the forbidden forest by groping for traces of the activities of chickens, snakes and beasts.
