Chapter 325 The Brave Badger
The next morning, when Rove arrived at the auditorium, the prefect Cedric was handing out the school year's schedule.
There are many more elective courses on the schedule, which means that their free time this year will be greatly reduced.
Of course, compared to other academies, the little badgers rationally did not choose too many courses... Not to mention chewing too much, the most important thing is that they may tire themselves.
Therefore, when students from other colleges took all available courses, Hufflepuff was unusually restrained, and there were many students who only took one elective course.
When the deans of other colleges talk to students, they generally advise students to choose fewer courses, such as Hermione.
Only in Hufflepuff College, Professor Sprout talks to students and persuades them to choose more courses.
The little badgers also gave it a loud and elegant name, Hufflepuff Healthy Learning Method.
Where there is health-preserving learning, there is wolf-like learning. The most typical one is Ravenclaw, who chooses too few courses and will be regarded as a different kind... The whole academy is desperately introverted.
In addition, there is Gryffindor's passionate learning method:
Every morning for three minutes, I made a detailed study plan, but after the shivering ended, I entered the stage of weakness, and then I was sluggish.
Watching it at night, I didn't make a plan, and then I regretted it, and I swore one last time, but the next day it was the same.
Anyway, every day is day 0, and there has never been day 1.
Slytherin is a pure-blood class selection method. It is necessary to investigate the ancestral blood of the teacher... If you are a Muggle-born wizard, you will naturally be excluded.
Outrageous courses like Muggle Studies are even more forbidden.
After breakfast, Rove walked out of the auditorium and walked towards Hagrid's cabin.
The first class of the day was Care of Fantastic Beasts, and they had this class with the Ravenclaw students.
But the Ravenclaw students had left early, and most of the little badgers hadn't gotten up yet.
At this time, the sky was gray and cold, and the torrential rain had passed, weakening into a long and continuous light rain.
Shirley held an umbrella and stood alone in the rain waiting for someone. She had nothing to do, so she gently held the handle of the umbrella, twisted it with two fingers, and the umbrella surface swayed and swayed in the rain.
From a distance, it looks like a painting... extremely beautiful.
Rove couldn't help but stop and glanced a few more times.
Seeing the boy coming out, Shirley trotted to the boy's side. She put away her umbrella and wiped off the rain that had just splashed on the tip of her hair.
The two walked side by side, shuttling through the rain.
The girl with ponytail wiped off the rain, and couldn't help asking curiously, "What were you looking at just now?"
Rove thought for a while and said, "I'm watching... the rain scene."
"Rain scene?" Shirley raised her head slightly, tilted her head, and looked up, as if she was thinking about the annoying rain, how beautiful it is.
Rove also looked up at the sky with her, and said with a chuckle, "Xue Li, you missed a lot of beautiful scenery."
"Really?" The ponytail girl turned her head to look at the boy, and said with a smile, "But I remember yesterday on the train, you said you hated the weather in England the most."
"Did I say it?" Rove stretched out his hand and rubbed his chin, "Could it be that you remembered wrongly?"
Xue Li smiled and said, "My memory is not so bad that I can remember wrongly what happened a day ago."
"I remembered... I seem to have said that." Rove nodded slowly, reluctantly admitting it, he paused, then blinked and said:
"It seems that my aesthetic quality has improved overnight... Shirley, do you think I'm a talented player like me, should I change my career and become an aesthetic expert?"
Shirley endured and endured, but still couldn't help laughing out loud, she stretched out a finger and scratched on her cheek:
"Can you be thicker-skinned?"
Rove looked at the girl who bent over with a smile. He stretched out his hand and gently held her slender ponytail, narrowing his eyes and smiling softly:
"If you laugh again, your wages will be deducted."
Shirley really kept her face straight, but those autumn eyes were still bent into a pair of crescent moons, she said pitifully: "Don't close it."
The ponytailed girl was like a child who had been caught, her pitiful face was full of pity with infinite damage value.
Rove almost gave her a raise, not to mention deducting her wages.
The two discussed aesthetic issues all the way, and soon arrived at Hagrid's cabin.
Hagrid was standing in the doorway, looking excited in his moleskin overcoat, surrounded by a group of Ravenclaws.
After a while, the Hufflepuff students arrived at the log cabin in a hurry.
Rove came early.
"Come on, hurry up!" Hagrid yelled, "There's something good for you today! A wonderful Fantastic Beasts class is about to start! Is everyone here? Well, come with me!"
Under Hagrid's leadership, they walked along the edge of the forbidden area, and five minutes later, they were in a paddock.
As a well-known school of magic, Hogwarts has its own enclosure with many animals.
Many of the small animals that students eat on weekdays come from here. The milk is also produced and sold by itself, which is pure natural and does not contain any additives.
The most important thing is that the milk has a strong taste, unlike some milk that is thin and watery. After drinking it, you will become a jet fighter. You almost think that you are lactose intolerant.
Of course, there are also a large number of magical creatures raised here.
In addition to feeding, Hagrid's daily tasks also have to beware of some thieves.
For example, the usage of the magic materials was exceeded, and the school’s approval was rejected, so he secretly came to the paddock to obtain the magic materials... a professor surnamed Si who was willing to disclose his name.
"Come over to this fence, everyone!" said Hagrid. "Now, the first thing you have to do is open your books..."
The students took out "The Monster Book of Monsters" one after another, as the most ferocious textbook in the history of Hogwarts, most of the little wizards had already tamed it before class.
Seeing the sluggishness of those monster books, Hagrid couldn't help but ask, "What did you do to them?"
"Professor Hagrid, I fed it magic glue." Justin raised his hand and said, "It can no longer open its mouth to bite people."
Justin was so excited that he almost wrote "praise me" and "extra points" on his face.
Not to be outdone, McMillan said, "I used a stapler to staple the mouth of this book, but I just can't turn the pages."
The other students chattered to share their successful experiences, such as chili water, soapy water, and even some sky lanterns... Anyway, all the hard work that can be done is done by the violent monster book, and it is obsessive to cure them. Docile post.
Hagrid was taken aback when he heard the various "ways of early humans taming monster books".
This is different from what he expected.
There is obviously a sensitive area on the back of the book, as long as you rub it with your fingers from bottom to top, the book will be excited, then soft and open...
Hearing this statement, some students suddenly realized, and a small group of students looked at Hagrid... You better really be talking about the way to open the monster book.
While the students were rubbing, Hagrid pulled a chain out of the woods, behind which were bound twelve beasts:
Their body, hind legs, and tail are like those of a horse, but their front legs, wings, and head are like those of an eagle.
Hagrid shook the chain and led the pack of beasts in front of the students, and the young wizards all backed away in fear.
"Don't be afraid." Hagrid hurriedly said, "I'm here!"
But Hagrid's words obviously didn't reassure everyone, especially the steel-like sharp beaks of those beasts, and the claws on their front legs... half a foot long.
If this happens casually, it is estimated that 10,000 transparent holes can be poked out.
"Anyone know what this is?" Hagrid asked.
Seeing that the scene was about to be cold, Rove raised his hand and replied, "Professor Hagrid, this is a Hippogriff."
"Fine, twenty points to Hufflepuff... well, fifteen points," Hagrid announced happily.
Generally, professors add two or three points, and if there are more, it is only five points...Hagrid only gets fifteen points. He obviously hasn't adapted to the status of a professor, and he is extremely loose in adding points.
It can't be said that it is not rigorous, at least it is very similar to Professor Snape's deduction of points.
The students of Ravenclaw rushed forward one after another, and today is the day to score... For the House Cup, charge!
Hagrid was also infected by the enthusiasm of the little eagles. He waved his hand and said, "Then, who wants to get in close contact with this group of cuties?"
"..."
It was just identifying the species just now, but it has already fast forwarded to physical contact... Is the span so large?
The students immediately stepped back again, humbled by each other.
Rove, Shirley, and Neville stood in a group of people without moving, and a large open space soon appeared around them.
Hagrid waved his hand and said with a smile, "Very good, Neville Longbottom, come and try."
All the students applauded. Who said Neville was cowardly? This is simply the brave of the badger.
Neville: "..."
...
...
(I am much better today, the fever is gone, but I still have a cough, sore throat, and runny nose. I hope the fever is really gone this time, and I won’t have the fever again at night.)
