From Azkaban To Hogwarts

Chapter 171 When Professor Lockhart gets better

"Oh my God, why are you missing so much work?"

In the office, William, who was in a happy mood again, was drinking hot chocolate and checking his schedule for October. His head felt a little heavy.

Although the end of the rainy season has allowed him to regain his strength, there is no one to help him fill in the work that was left behind. William is a little heartbroken just looking at the vacancies - it will take him a long time to make up for it?

But it has to be supplemented that the Dark Lord has also placed a curse on his own life background. Except for William, who has already been burdened with the curse, whoever he brings in will be unlucky. He cannot let anyone else handle it.

'What else can we do? Investigate slowly. Anyway, the Dark Lord will definitely not be resurrected this year. There is still plenty of time in the next period - alas...'

William sighed, and finally put down the thick material - he finally recovered from the suffocating atmosphere. He felt that he could release papers and grade papers to relax first, otherwise he would be in such a state of falling again and again. , he was afraid of playing himself to death...

"Let's have another piece of chocolate. After a month of rainy season, I actually lost almost ten pounds - it's incredible." ’

William was thinking as he reached out his hand to the chocolate frog next to the chocolate.

——

"Sure enough, a weekend is a weekend without rain!"

When he woke up, the outside of the quilt was no longer damp, and warm sunlight filtered in from the window, which made William feel happy in his heart.

"I've ordered breakfast, but I still need to eat something good."

"Bart, can you bring me a breakfast? A little more, I feel like I can eat a double portion!"

The elf was as reliable as ever, and within five minutes, William's breakfast was carried over by Bart in a small basket.

Smoked fish, bacon, ham... The elf probably has a unique understanding of the word double portion. He brought half a basket of meat, but William didn't even feel it was too greasy. After eating all the food Bart brought, he even I still feel a little hungry.

"Come alive!"

After adding another pack of preserves, William was finally satisfied - the freshness of the air, the deliciousness of the food, the warmth of the sun, and all the beauty tore through the coldness around him and made him more reluctant to the damn rain. Disgusted.

‘Before next year’s rainy season, I will try my best to learn the Patronus Charm! ’

William took out his diary and added this sentence under the sentence about being careful with Weasley.

——

The faculty lounge is always so lively. Even professors who don't like to talk much like to sit here when there is nothing serious to do and listen to the gossips of the young professors.

The professors at Hogwarts are all good, but they all have one common problem - they like to teach others.

There is no way, there is no way to change the occupational diseases of seniors.

Therefore, some of the discussion topics in the lounge are very in-depth until one party is at a loss for words - but such discussions are rare. Even among the professors at Hogwarts, there are still almost no generalists, and most of them have a little dabble. I can’t say how deep it is.

"So, genius adventurers like Professor Lockhart are not adaptable at the beginning. After adapting to the school for a period of time, the class will be normal."

"Isn't that just like this? You see, after taking risks, you test, and after testing, you take risks, just like an adventure story. How can there be an adventure story that can surpass the hometown? Even Muggle novels will not be included in the first chapter. The second chapter lets the protagonist fight the dragon!"

"That's not necessarily true. Isn't the new Professor William doing a good job?"

"Stop talking, poor little William, he just works too hard on teaching. You see, when the rainy season comes, the illness tortures him to such a state -" The old professor leaned on his chair and shook his head, his expression changed. Not so good - the continuous rainy weather was not good news for his injuries.

"Yes, even if you want to perform well, you can't work that hard, but traditional teaching does have its own tricks -"

The surrounding professors echoed - they are all professors, and they can tell after such a long time whether the new professor is careful or not.

"Professor Lockhart is not bad. Although he does like to brag, his attitude is still very good. During this period, students have said that Professor Lockhart's courses have completely changed."

At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and William walked in with a smile on his face, "Good morning everyone, what are you happy about today?"

"Ha, little William, you look like you are recovering from your illness?"

The old professor greeted William happily.

"Thanks to you," William responded with the brightest smile this month, "those discomforts disappeared together with the October rainy season!"

"That's good. Young people recover faster than us old guys." The old professor said as he patted his prosthetic limb. "This is the last rainy season I experienced. After living for so long, I realized that in Huo Gwarts can hide in Australia when it rains - little William, I really have you."

"hey-hey."

William responded with a silly smile - this guy Adams, he stabbed Versailles, and all the professors in the school knew about it?

"No, I will go there when I retire. Those years of studying at Hogwarts have stiffened my brain."

"That's right, let's go together."

A group of professors were joking in good faith - they still had a good impression of William, who had been tortured by the rainy season for a long time.

"By the way, where did we just talk?"

"William, you just came here. We were just talking about Professor Lockhart. What do you think of Professor Lockhart?"

The questioner smiled, obviously wanting to hear the comments of his fellow Professor Lockhart.

"Professor Lockhart must have considerable strength. There is no doubt that - well, he seems to be not very adapted to teaching work, but I think he should be able to adjust soon, right?"

William carefully considered a less hurtful comment. In fact, regarding Professor Lockhart's course, he even said that he would mislead students without any objection...

"Old news, Professor William!"

The professor who asked the question laughed loudly, "During the time when you were feeling unwell, Professor Lockhart's teaching skills improved by leaps and bounds, and he was almost unanimously praised by the students - you must know that the fifth grade students don't like you very much." Exam paper.”

He blinked and laughed with the people around him - all of them were professors, who didn't know that students hate papers and test papers?

I felt uncomfortable for a month. How can the world change so fast?

William was stunned - in less than a month, Professor Lockhart turned from a teaching scumbag and drama performance expert into a lecturer?

New Oriental's training videos don't even dare to brag like this. Whether it's class or cooking, how can it be so fast?

"You don't believe it either?"

"I don't really believe it, but Professor Lockhart is much more popular now than before. If you don't believe it, you can go and listen on Monday. It's common for professors to learn from each other at Hogwarts."

"Common thing?"

William was stunned for a moment - "Then when I join the job?"

"You two are both new professors. Who will learn from whom? Normally, when you join the job, you have to concentrate on listening to the old professor's lectures for a period of time before you can take over the class."

I thought there was something wrong with taking classes right now. I didn’t even have a teacher’s qualification certificate and just started working like this...

"Then it would be good to listen to it from other professors? At least I can learn some experience..."

William's voice became lower and lower - he soon realized that he had asked a stupid question.

All the professors here are from Hogwarts, so they can learn from other professors' lectures?

Are you kidding? I have listened to the class for seven years. Will listening to it again bring any new help?

Because William came over, the topic of comparison about the new professors naturally changed to another topic, and everyone began to discuss the rainy season at Hogwarts and where to take shelter from the rain after retirement.

——

"Adams, according to your experience, there won't be a rainy season in the future, right?"

After the crowd dispersed and everyone went about their own business, William secretly grabbed Adams and started asking.

"For the fifth time, William, I promise you that from today on, there will no longer be continuous rain in Hogwarts. You can observe it with a little patience."

Adams finally understood how annoying his previous questions about the crown had been - William was just as incessant now as he had been before.

"That's good. By the way, has there been any progress in the research on the crown during this period?"

"No," Adams shook his head, "Dumbledore has been studying that, but seems to have no clue. If Miss Ginny and Filch had not been attacked, we would even suspect that there is something wrong with the crown. No."

As a wizard who is not good at fighting, Adams has been following up on the research on the crown - this was what he had promised at the beginning.

No progress is not good news, especially when his researchers are already almost the strongest team in the entire magic world.

"Has Miss Ginny been discharged from the hospital?"

"I was discharged from the hospital just yesterday. I was originally thinking about calling you, but your condition has been really bad these days, so I didn't bother you at all."

Adams whispered, and then joked: "The school is actually quite quiet during this period. Maybe even the trouble is afraid of rain?"

Come on, rain is the biggest trouble.

William curled his lips and listened patiently to the various things that happened in Hogwarts during this period when he was completely out of state.

Just as the two were talking about their happy place, the door to the staff lounge was opened again.

Exclamations spread from the door to the depths of the office.

"Oh my God, Professor Singed, did you fight a troll?"

The professor closest to the door exclaimed - William followed the exclamation and immediately understood why the other professors made such sounds.

Singed at the door can no longer be described as slovenly. He looked as if he had been hit by some magic, and he had not taken any protection——

Messy hair, torn robes, stained face, and dark hands that looked like coal diggers - if William had seen such a person in Azkaban, he would have immediately concluded that this person was a jailbird. The toilet guy.

This image, it is completely feasible to say that he was abused!

"Great, William, you are here. I went to your office and couldn't find anyone, so I came here to ask Adams. Just stay here - I have made your crucible, and it will definitely satisfy you! "

Singed's words were decisive, but William was confused - it took him a while to remember that this was a crucible made of fire crab shells that he had entrusted Singed to make in a daze on a rainy day.

‘If I say I forgot, I guess even using illness as an excuse won’t stop him, right? ’

"Is this done?"

"Of course, don't you look at who I am? This is a brand new alchemy product, definitely not comparable to those brass crucibles on the market!"

"So powerful, Professor Singed? But a crucible can tire you out like this?"

"The shell of a fire crab! I have retained most of the properties of the raw material!"

"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go together!"

The professor who spoke was making noises, and Singed had no intention of covering it up - for an alchemy master like him, the works are made just for people to see, otherwise, why should the exquisite products designed so hard be left there to gather dust? ?

So, a group of professors who had not left school over the weekend and had nothing important to do formed a group and walked towards Xingjid's office.

——

"Hello, professor!"

"Hello, have a nice weekend."

"Hello, professor!"

"Hello, have a nice weekend."

The voice of the most impatient professor in the front sounded as he headed towards the corner, making the professor behind him couldn't help but laugh secretly - which made William in the middle a little confused.

‘Why are you laughing? It’s a normal greeting? ’

"good morning--"

The voice of the student who greeted him was stuck, and his expression became very wonderful, "Good morning, Professor."

"Well, hello."

The professor in front walked by without changing his expression.

Then another professor.

The students who were saying hello were standing over there, giggling and pretending to say hello. William followed the professor in front of him expressionlessly, nodded and said hello, and then passed by without any unnecessary expression.

'It's more interesting than that unknown crucible - but then again, what use can a crucible made of fire crab shells be used for? ’

——

"Oh my god, why are there so many professors? What happened?"

"I don't know, I haven't heard of anything big going on in the castle - Harry, what do you think?"

"ah?"

Harry looked up confused.

"It's not your fault that you can't practice Quidditch. The pitch is occupied by Slytherin. There's nothing you can do about it - it's a rare good weather, and Snape gives them another note!"

Ron was filled with indignation - the Hogwarts school team used the money they won to exchange for a batch of Nimbus 2000. Although it was not the latest model, it had stable performance and was much cheaper. The whole school was looking forward to good results, but today's weather As soon as they were done, Slytherin came to seize the court.

Seeing Ron's excitement, Harry was really embarrassed to say that he was not worried about that today, but worried about Professor Lockhart. Although the professor had recently changed his class method, he still liked to ask him to perform as before.

But that feeling was even scarier than before.

‘Obviously Ron also thinks Lockhart has improved, what am I thinking? ’
