Vol 2 Chapter 489: welcome

The classmates were full and the auditorium gradually became noisy, and Dumbledore stood up again. The voice stopped immediately, and everyone turned their faces to the principal.
"Well, now that we are digesting another extremely rich and delicious meal, I request everyone to be quiet for a while and listen to me talk about the precautions for the new semester as usual..." Dumbledore said of traditions such as the forbidden forest. rule.
"The administrator, Mr. Argus Filch, asked me. He also told me that this was the 426th time. He asked me to remind you all that magic is not allowed in the hallway between classes, and there are many other regulations. , Are listed on the long list, posted on the door of Mr. Filch’s office.
"I'm very glad to have good news to tell everyone that this year's Defence Against the Dark Arts class will be officially taught by Mr. Remus Lupin, who was a temporary substitute for last semester." Dumbledore's voice just fell, and the auditorium sounded. Warm applause and cheers, the applause on the Gryffindor table was particularly warm.
Professor Lupin stood up and greeted everyone with a smile on his face. Professor Snape at the other end of the staff table stared at him coldly, his thin yellow face twitching, his expression full of disgust and hatred.
Harry slapped his slap desperately, Ron thumped the table and cheered loudly. The Gryffindors finally stopped applauding when Dumbledore started talking again.
"We are equally pleased to introduce Ms. Dolores Jane Umbridge. She will be stationed in Hogwarts as a special observer of the Ministry of Magic and will make her own suggestions on the teaching methods of our teachers."
There was a polite but not very warm applause in the auditorium, and Umbridge began to cough.
Dumbledore continued: "The selection of new Quidditch players should be completed before the end of the first month of school. Okay, there are so many important things. On Saturday, senior classmates can go to Hogsmeade. The little wizards in the lower grades can consider asking the seniors to bring you some snacks, sour lollipops and strange beans? I think the cockroach pile is very good."
Dumbledore smiled and waved his hand, indicating that the prefect could take the little wizards back.
The continuous and exaggerated cough made the Hogwarts School Zhang turn her head helplessly, looking at Umbridge inquiringly, she raised her hand high, tilted her head, and looked at with a smile on her face. Dumbledore.
Professor Dumbledore’s voice resounded again: "Ah, please wait a moment, it seems that Observer Umbridge has something to say to us all." Professor Dumbledore made an inviting gesture, and then he became alert. Sat down.
The little wizards who had already stood up and were about to leave all sat back in their positions, looking at Umbridge in surprise.
"Thank you, principal," Professor Umbridge said with a smirk. "Thank you for such a warm welcome." Her voice was high and sharp, with an aura, deliberately imitating the voice of a little girl. Combined with her tender pictogram, it is really disgusting.
"The Ministry of Magic has always believed that educating young wizards is a very important thing. Some of the precious talents you are born with, if you are not trained and trained under careful and meticulous guidance, they may be fruitless. Unique to the wizarding world Ancient skills must be passed on from generation to generation, or they will disappear. The precious treasures of magical knowledge accumulated by our ancestors must be protected, supplemented and perfected by those who are fortunate to engage in noble education."
Having said this, Professor Umbridge stopped talking and bowed slightly to the other teachers, but none of them responded to her. Professor McGonagall's two black eyebrows are tightly twisted together, making her look like an eagle. When Umbridge gently "cough, cough" twice to continue her speech, Professor McGonagall and Professor Sprout exchanged a meaningful look.
Umbridge began her stinky long speech. The little wizards gradually lost their attention. Dumbledore was silent when he spoke. Now the classmates are whispering, whispering, giggling, and the hall is full of noise. .
"Of course, the purpose of my coming here is to observe the good traditions that need to be maintained in education, and to find those old habits that are obsolete, need to be changed and even need to be discarded. I will summarize the results of my observations to the Ministry of Magic for instructions. Report to the distinguished Professor Dumbledore." Umbridge grinned, showing the sharp teeth in his mouth.
"Pretending to be, I really hate this man, is she the one you are talking about at the trial?" Hermione lowered her head and asked next to Harry.
"It's this witch! She was very arrogant before the photo was taken out in the trial, and now she dare not do it. Lupin told me that Fudge wanted to send someone this time, but she herself strongly requested to come over, saying that she wanted to. To make up for it. Fudge talked with Dumbledore for a long time before Dumbledore agreed. She dare not act rashly now, otherwise Dumbledore might drive her away if she makes a mistake." Harry glanced at Umbridge. .
"This is probably the most boring speech I've ever heard, and I grew up next to Percy." Ron looked sluggish, and he sat upright, but he was just pretending to listen carefully. It is to live up to the brand-new, sparkling prefect badge on his chest.
"Why did Snape keep staring at Professor Lupin?" Harry's eyes smoothed over Snape. He felt that Snape's eyes looked at Lupin with a knife and were colder than he was.
"He has always wanted to get a teaching position in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, but this year he failed again in his application and Lupin got the position, which makes him angry." Hermione told Harry she was listening at Allen's house. News.
There was a clash of tables, chairs and benches around, and it was obvious that Dumbledore had announced the disbandment of all teachers and students, because everyone stood up and prepared to leave the auditorium.
Hermione jumped to her feet and looked panicked: "Oh, I should go and show the freshman!"
"First-year freshman!" Hermione shouted at the table in a moment of panic, "Please gather here!"
Allen looked at Slytherin and found that Pansy was holding Emily's hand enthusiastically, obviously there was no need for Allen to worry.
Allen and Padma greeted Ravenclaw's freshmen to gather in front of them. These little eagles seemed to be particularly well-behaved. Allen's mind was on Emily. Seeing that these freshmen were gathered behind him, Luna, who was waiting for him, led the team and left the auditorium.
After they climbed the eighth floor, they continued up from a certain place, and after a long spiral staircase, they saw an old wooden plank with an eagle-shaped knocker in the distance, which was the entrance to the Ravenclaw lounge.
But what he didn't expect was that after finally making sure that no professor was staring at them, these little wizards who had suppressed their excitement and had been using eye contact before suddenly became agitated and surrounded Allen together, wanting the most powerful in the world. Seekers signed them ~EbookFREE.me~ and some rushed to ask Alan some weird questions, and thought that Ai Ethics who performed well in the wisdom level of the competition should know all the answers.
Alan, who was completely unprepared, had to patiently appease these little wizards with fiery eyes and worshipful faces. By signing their signatures and answering some "normal questions" selectively, they avoided magical functions such as monster eggs on the mountain. Or egg divination, which is a method of divination by breaking eggs.
But those new-born problems seemed to be endless, chatting around Allen.
The old Ravenclaw students saw this and went back to the common room, except for Luna in the distance, waiting for Alan not far from the door of the lounge.
Parvati wanted to step forward to disperse these little fanatical fans from Allen, but she couldn't get in at all.
At this time, a huge patron saint of raven flew over with silver light, and landed among the little wizards who were panicked by the sudden magic.
Afterwards, the patron saint spoke: "Extraordinary ingenuity is the greatest wealth of mankind."
Luna’s singing voice came from the patron saint:
Congratulations! I’m Luna Lovegood in the fourth grade. I’m very happy to welcome you to Ravenclaw College. Our emblem is an eagle. , Soaring high above the unattainable peak; our colors are sky blue and silver; our common room through the arched windows of the circular common room, you can see the Hogwarts campus: the Great Lakes, Forbidden forest, Quidditch stadium, and greenhouse. Apart from us, no other colleges are fortunate enough to enjoy this beauty. Students of Ravenclaw College, you must have superior intelligence—and obviously at this moment, it’s almost a curfew."
