The Hogwarts Emerald

Chapter 57: May at Hogwarts

Ada stayed in the school infirmary for another three days. In fact, she had recovered long ago. She could run and jump, and she wanted to eat two steaks in one meal!

But Madam Pomfrey didn't allow her to get out of bed and walk around. Even when she went to the bathroom, Madam Pomfrey would keep an eye on her, fearing that Ada would do something to her.

During these three days, Ada could spend a day with a glass of water, a bag of snacks and a newspaper. She was so bored that she even knew exactly how many small medicine bottles there were in the school clinic.

Fortunately, she had the company of the twins. As long as it was not class time, Fred and George would come to the school infirmary without fail. If it were not for their company, Ada would probably have gotten moldy.

Professor McGonagall came to visit Ada. Seeing Ada jumping around, she became furious. She criticized Ada harshly. Ada wished she could shrink her head into her chest.

Ada tactfully expressed to Professor McGonagall that she wanted to be discharged from the hospital, but Professor McGonagall ruthlessly rejected her idea. Professor McGonagall thought it was a good idea to keep Ada here, as it could help her see if she had any health problems and also help her temper. It was the best of both worlds.

However, Professor McGonagall still felt sorry for her. She was afraid that Ada would be bored, so she specially brought her some journals and papers on Transfiguration. These books just solved Ada's boredom problem.

Snape had not come since the night in the Forbidden Forest, nor had he made any statement. Ada had thought of this. If Snape came to see him, Ada would have to think about whether she had offended the Potions Master again.

Dumbledore also didn't come again, but he asked someone to bring some sweets to Ada, which were his favorite types. He only ate a chocolate frog and gave Ada a lot of snacks. This deal was very cost-effective.

Ada's discharge from the hospital did not cause much sensation, and people were no longer so enthusiastic about helping students catch welfare.

What everyone was discussing was the fact that Minister Fudge had sent Foley to Azkaban without trial, and that Foley's family had been lobbying the wizarding community in hopes of helping Foley get away with the crime.

Compared with these two major events, a student is really insignificant. Dumbledore has not said anything so there is naturally no need to continue this kind of speculation.

On the day of discharge, several of Ada's friends came, but they didn't have to come, because Ada didn't need help carrying anything. The incident happened suddenly, and she was carried back directly, so she didn't prepare anything for the hospital stay.

Ada had been wearing a very familiar hospital gown these past few days. Her school robe had long been taken away by the house-elves for mending and washing, and was sent back the night before yesterday, with a pleasant fragrance still on it.

Ada and the twins had almost finished a large bag of snacks, so they could just put them in the pockets of their robes. The heaviest items were just a few books, which could be put in a schoolbag, so there was no need to make such a big fuss.

Angelina, Alia and Lee Jordan all came. The twins carried Ada's schoolbag, and the five of them surrounded Ada and returned to the lounge.

After leaving the hospital bed, Ada threw herself directly on the soft bed in the dormitory, which was more comfortable. From frugality to luxury, Ada had become accustomed to the soft bed, and she felt uncomfortable sleeping on the hospital bed.

The twins took Ada for a good tour around the school. During this nearly one week, not only Ada felt very suffocated, but the twins who had been sleeping with her also felt very uncomfortable. The three of them had a crazy time on the campus for the whole day, and even the Whomping Willow could not escape their clutches.

Ada and the twins stood far away, just out of the Whomping Willow's striking range. The three of them stood there throwing stones at the Whomping Willow like naughty kids. Whoever hit the trunk won. If no one hit it, it would depend on whose stone was closer.

The Whomping Willow swore: As a precious plant in Hogwarts, with its own fierce fighting power, it has never suffered such a great injustice in its life!
In order to prevent Ada from cheating, the twins confiscated her wand. Ada, who was not as strong as the twins, naturally lost miserably. Fred and George did not have any idea of ​​humility, and they finally beat Ada again. After losing ten chocolate frogs, five bags of Bibi Every Flavour Beans and four liquorice wands, the devastation of the Whomping Willow came to an end.

After a whole day of indulgence, Ada finally calmed down and her life returned to normal. Without the pressure from welfare, Ada became more lively. Since she was alive, there was no need to put too much pressure on herself. She should laugh more when she could, so as not to feel at a disadvantage when she couldn't laugh.

It was already May, and the classes at Hogwarts for this academic year were drawing to a close. In addition to teaching some courses that had not yet been taught, professors of various subjects had also begun reviewing.

In the Transfiguration class, Professor McGonagall led them to play with matches again, and Professor Flitwick also led them to review the Levitation Charm.

Professor Sprout took them into the greenhouse to dig the soil. When Ada came out of the greenhouse, she was like a little mud monkey, which indirectly confirmed that Ada was not good at hands-on work.

Ada excelled in all subjects except Herbology, which made it seem as if Ada had something against Professor Sprout.

In fact, Ada was well versed in all theoretical knowledge of herbal medicine, but she was a little lacking in practical skills, which prevented her from getting excellent grades.

Professor Sprout would shake his head and sigh every time he passed by Ada. Even though Ada was extremely thick-skinned now, she couldn't stand Sprout's sad eyes. Ada always felt like a heartless man.

All subjects are being reviewed, except for Potions. Snape is still carrying out his teaching schedule in an orderly manner. He is leading you to review, don't even think about it, if you fail the exam, it's because you have a brain problem.

Snape has fully adhered to the teaching philosophy that the master leads the way and the practice is up to the individual. He has taught everything that should be taught and has not kept anything secret. How much a student can master is his own problem. What does it have to do with Snape?
Snape did not cause trouble for Ada in the potion class. Not only did he not cause trouble for Ada, he even gave her some guidance on her potion. Snape had a stinky face and his tone was still bad, but his guidance was real and without any discount.

Snape's behavior caused the floor of the dungeon to be covered with chins. The little lions and snakes thought that the sun rose from the west today. It shocked them for the whole year.

The final exam of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class was cancelled by Dumbledore, but the fifth and seventh year students were in trouble because they had to take the level exam, which could not be cancelled and they still had to take it on time.

The whole school was in the most intense learning atmosphere. Even Filch's work became much easier. The twins were also forcibly taken to the library by Ada for intensive review.

Fred and George are both smart people, and their academic performance is not bad, but their minds are not on these. Their minds are full of pranks and all kinds of novel ideas.

It's not that the twins didn't resist Ada's brutal behavior, but they were afraid of hurting Ada, so all their protests were verbal and there was no actual action.

Ada was the opposite, she was very determined to carry out the revision plan. Mrs. Weasley treated her well, so she wanted to make the twins' grades look better to please Mrs. Weasley.

One side's resistance was incomplete, and the other side was ruthless enough to suppress it, so the twins' uprising was quickly suppressed by Ada with force. They had no choice but to review according to Ada's plan and live a "miserable" life for the two brothers.
