This is what Ravenclaw looks like..

Chapter 313 The Professor's Absence

Andrew thought for a long time about the joke Professor McGonagall made before she left, and finally believed it.

Not to mention the Triwizard Tournament, girls at Hogwarts really dare to drug boys with love potions just for a dance or some other invitation.

If the people at Beauxbatons were shady, it would be perfectly normal for them to drug the warriors - cheating was part of the Triwizard Tournament, and this was all given in the information.

There is a famous betting in the Ravenclaw Common Room - when Professor Sirius Black will be drugged, and which house the drugged witch will be from.

This thing hasn't been knocked down yet.

Anyway, it was still there at the end of the last school year - I don't know if it will be closed this semester.

It's outrageous that the prefect didn't abort this, but Andrew won't reveal it - anyway, if there is no result before the sixth graders leave school last year, the principal will be refunded.

With the shock still undissipated, Andrew returned to the table.

"Professor McGonagall is going out?"

Sirius asked almost immediately - because Andrew was pulled over to the staff table.

After all, the two new professors were unwilling to sit at the Ravenclaw table.

"Yes, he was on vacation, so he asked me to take care of the office and..."

Andrew left the rest of his sentence unfinished and looked at Sirius.

"That was all during my student days. Don't slander me. I will talk to the professor..."

Before he finished speaking, his voice became lower and lower - after all, he lacked confidence.

"So, it's Headmaster Dumbledore's turn to be on duty next?"

"Of course. Didn't you see that the professor gave up and just entrusted the office to me?"

But words couldn't be said directly - especially since Professor McGonagall had completely despaired of calling Dumbledore to work.

“Wow, that’s cool.”

After Andrew nodded affirmatively, Nina said very seriously, "By the way, how about we take a risk?"

Are you kidding me?
adventure?

All the office work is on my side, leaving school is absolutely impossible - next I have to organize the textbooks, copy the names of students, write letters to students of wizarding origin, prepare letters for students from Muggle families, and wait for the professors to pick them up.

There is so much work to do now, how can I get away?

"I'm not saying this outside, but in Hogwarts, didn't Sirius say that there are many magical places in Hogwarts?"

"Ma'am, if you weren't a professor, I would have suspected you were a spy lurking inside. Who would be a professor going through a secret passage?"

Andrew was speechless - he had been here for so long and had no interest in exploring the castle's secret passages and hidden rooms.

Of course, this is definitely not because he is doing odd jobs in the office and these things that students hide secretly are not open to him.

Absolutely not!

"You're overthinking it, Professor Nina," Andrew said as he lay down. "Students have their own disciplines and professors have their own responsibilities. Sirius can't possibly bring professors to the student reservation. He'll lose all his popularity among students if he does that."

Sirius, who had been tempted to relive his boyhood experiences, stopped - if he got news of visiting a secret passage with an associate professor, he would no longer be able to stay in Gryffindor.

Turning a blind eye to things is no exception even in Hogwarts. It's one thing for Filch to do it, but if a professor does it, it means he wants to have the same reputation as Professor Snape.

"Ah...really...I can't leave school...I can't stay in school either."

Nina sighed and stopped insisting, "Keep studying."

-

"She's really not a spy or anything, is she?" Sirius suddenly stopped Andrew after the library dispersed.

"You're overthinking it," Andrew yawned. "The You-Know-Who has been here for six years. He already knows all the secret passages. There's no need for spies. As for Beauxbatons, they are more familiar with the castle than we are. When we were communicating back then, we asked each other a lot. Is it necessary to be so blunt?"

"That's true."

"Besides, she is a professor and has a confidentiality agreement," Andrew spread his hands, "Don't underestimate those things. Karkaroff is from Hogwarts and has even become the headmaster. Durmester is not worried about him exposing anything."

"Eh?"

Sirius looked at Andrew and asked, "You have been hearing a lot about the news from various schools recently?"

Andrew's heart skipped a beat, but when he realized Sirius hadn't mentioned it intentionally, he breathed a sigh of relief, "I've been researching Transfiguration at various magic schools lately, so I just have more information."

"Ah, it looks like this."

"What important things can I touch? I'm just an assistant doing odd jobs in the office."

Andrew spread his hands to show his innocence.

"That was a close call. I guess he's already in the spotlight, but it shouldn't be a test, right?"

-

The next day, Andrew no longer had time to care about this - because a particularly outrageous job came in the office.

The current Minister of Magic, Mr. Fudge, was ready to spend money. Therefore, the Logistics Department of the Ministry of Magic sent a message, requiring the school to do a thorough cleaning before the Minister's inspection.

As for the issue of no one being there during holidays?
Ah, the minister didn't come to see the students, he came to see those students who still stick to their posts in the laboratory during the holidays - their grades were too good last year, so this year he came to express his condolences and give them money.

After all, a laboratory that is still conducting research during the holidays is a laboratory that works seriously and has the possibility of achieving results.

Andrew almost cursed in the office. Minister Fudge is always so outrageous, isn't he?
During normal times, he can trick students into doing the decoration, but where can he find people during the holidays?

Those students in the lab who are burning money?

crazy?

If he really did it, he could just go to the Astronomy Tower to admire the moon himself - in the end he had no choice but to go to Dumbledore.

But the result was even more outrageous - Dumbledore would be in charge of the hall, and he just had to go to each office and notify the professors to do it.

'It's as if I gave Dumbledore an order...'

While Andrew was complaining in his heart, he started calling out to the professors who were staying on campus.

Under the premise that Dumbledore had already started the work, the professors were still very good at hands-on work - anyway, the elves had already laid the foundation, and all that was missing was the decoration.

But this made Andrew even more uneasy - Oh my God, professors, please don't bully young people like this!

This is too much!

But it was no use, Dumbledore took the lead, and the other professors were very straightforward.

Andrew felt a little upset along the way.

"Sirius, Ms. Nina, you two will be in charge of decorating the library... as well as the nearby aisles and corridors."

Andrew was numb.

And the way the two professors looked at him after they went out to work - a deep estrangement immediately emerged.

"And you said you were an ordinary student!"
