"呲~"
As soon as Ye Feng finished speaking, Harry and Ron burst out laughing, but they managed to restrain themselves in time. However, this still made Ye Feng furious.
"How dare you laugh!"
"Are we still brothers? You saw me being attacked and didn't help me, but you even pushed me into the crowd to use me as a shield!"
"Do you know how ruthless those upperclassmen and lowerclassmen are? If I hadn't held on tight, they would have ripped my belt off. And I discovered that those male students are horribly ruthless too. Not only did they take the talismans that were ripped off me, but they also fucking pushed me into the arms of those upperclassmen!"
"Ha ha ha ha…"
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, Harry and the others couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter. Lupin, standing to the side, looked at the three 'children' laughing and joking in front of him and seemed a little dazed. He thought of his own student days.
"It's...wonderful..."
Lupin's soft sigh finally made Ye Feng and the others realize that Lupin, who had been sleeping, had woken up. So they quickly apologized, "We're sorry, Professor Lupin, we were talking too loudly and disturbed your rest."
Seeing the sunny boy who had just caught a Dementor in a net apologize so politely, Lupin was a little flattered. He quickly waved his hand and said, "It's okay, I was already awake and even watched how you catch Dementors for a while."
"But you'd better be careful. Although I don't know why you want to capture Dementors or how you did it, Dementors are the guardians of Azkaban. If you do this, the Ministry of Magic might come knocking on your door soon."
Upon hearing Lupin's words, Ye Feng immediately feigned ignorance and asked, "Dementors? What Dementors? Harry, did we just go outside?"
Harry and Ron had been with Ye Feng for a while, so they immediately understood what he meant and pretended to be clueless, saying, "No way! We're not stupid enough to run out in the rain with all this downpour."
After Harry finished speaking, Ron chimed in, "Exactly! And Dementors are the guardians of Azkaban, legendary magical creatures that can only be repelled by the Patronus Charm. We, these students who are just about to enter our third year, don't even know the Patronus Charm yet, so how could we possibly catch those terrifying Dementors?"
Lupin: (?_?)
Although speechless, Lupin had to silently give a thumbs up to the three's quick thinking. As for reporting Harry and the others, that was impossible, since the reason he was on the Hogwarts Express was to help his friend Sirius.
It's fair to say that Harry and his friends were happiest when they captured Sirius. Ideally, they would have captured all the Dementors that came out of Azkaban, so that Sirius wouldn't be in danger.
The carriage fell silent for a while before Professor Lu Ping broke the silence.
"Can you tell me what you used to immobilize the Dementors?"
"Professor, you're mistaken. There are no Dementors, and we've never gone out."
Lupin: (?_?)
“Okay, you’ve never left this carriage. I mean, if, if a Dementor were to appear in this carriage right now, how would you get rid of it? Oh, without being able to use the Patronus Charm.”
Ye Feng: (o?▽?)o
"Sigh, Professor, you've come to the right person. Let me tell you, Dementors..."
Chapter 140 Hogwarts is already in the shape of Ye Feng
The new semester officially began, and the new young wizards crossed the Black Lake in the dark, just like they had before. They followed the path from the lake shore to the brightly lit Hogwarts School on the mountain, but the scene they saw was slightly different from what Ye Feng and his friends had seen before.
"Look! There's a beautiful little house over there, and it even has bright lights. I've never seen this kind of lighting before."
"That's... a light bulb? But why can't I see any wires?"
"Electric light? Something from the Muggle world? But this is the magical world, Hogwarts. How could there be something from the Muggle world here?"
"Wait, look, there's actually a stone-paved road over there! And there are even lights illuminating the roadside."
Hagrid: "Oh? You mean over there? That's where one of your seniors, Ye Feng, built to make it easier for people to fish by the Forbidden Lake. Headmaster Dumbledore also comes by occasionally to cast his line."
The young wizard, who knew a little about Hogwarts after hearing the first sentence, was about to ask if the Forbidden Lake was off-limits to anyone, when he heard the second sentence.
"That's alright then, but who exactly is this senior named Ye Feng? How come he can build a wooden house on the shore of the forbidden lake, which is strictly off-limits to anyone, and even get Headmaster Dumbledore to come and fish there occasionally?"
Dumbledore: At first I refused, but after catching them so many times, I gradually got used to it. And fishing really is a sport that can quickly calm you down. As for why it's a sport, you'll understand why fishing is a sport once you've pulled against a fish that can reach two meters in length.
The young wizards had already developed a great curiosity about Hogwarts even before stepping through its gates, and the reason for this great curiosity was simply because of one name—Ye Feng.
"Stay close, the lakeside is dark and slippery, don't fall behind."
Seeing that the young wizards had all come down, Hagrid, carrying an oil lamp, nodded and turned to walk towards the path that was almost covered by weeds, leaving the young wizards following behind him with a lot of questions.
"Professor! Why are we taking this dimly lit path, almost completely overgrown with weeds, instead of the stone path with streetlights over there?"
Hagrid: [?_??]
The student's question left Hagrid speechless.
"Yes, why do we have to go this way instead of that way? But why go that way in the first place? I always lead the new students this way every year; it's a Hogwarts tradition."
"Oh, I remember now, it's a Hogwarts tradition."
Hagrid, finally remembering, looked at the puzzled young wizards and replied, "This is a Hogwarts tradition. Every year, new young wizards go through this process. You won't have to do it next year."
Although they didn't know why Hogwarts had such a tradition, the young wizards had no more doubts. However, when they tripped over the weeds under their feet time and time again, they couldn't help but look at the clean, bright stone path on the other side.
The person who started this whole thing is currently sitting in the dining room at Hogwarts, playing with a 'doll' in his hand.
To outsiders, what Ye Feng held in his hand was just a rather strange doll, but Dumbledore, who already knew what had happened, was full of worries, especially when he saw the 'doll' in Ye Feng's hand, he couldn't help but rub his temples.
"This little rascal really knows how to cause trouble. He gave me such a huge 'surprise' on the first day of school. Fortunately, not many people saw it and the matter was a bit too outrageous. Hopefully, he can fool those people from the Ministry of Magic."
Rubbing his temples, Dumbledore looked away with a pained expression, but when he saw Professor McGonagall push open the door and lead the newly enrolled wizards in, a smile finally returned to his face.
"Ah! The new little wizards are definitely more pleasing to the eye. Look how innocent and cute they are."
"No, they need to be educated more. We can't let Ye Feng lead them astray." Thinking of this, Dumbledore couldn't help but glance at Ye Feng again. Because of Ye Feng, the senior students were not easy to manage.
Now, let alone nighttime strolls, the students have practically trampled the outer perimeter of the Forbidden Forest to death. As a result, the magical creatures that originally lived on the outskirts of the Forbidden Forest have moved to deeper areas. Otherwise, these audacious guys might actually have followed Ye Feng's example and gone up to pluck some fur from these magical animals.
Ye Feng: [?ヘ??]
Ye Feng, who had been glanced at by Dumbledore, looked up as if he had noticed something. However, Dumbledore had already turned his head away, so Ye Feng only saw Lupin's friendly smile.
Although they weren't very familiar with each other, Ye Feng understood the importance of reciprocity, so he politely returned Lu Ping's smile, which made Lu Ping feel a little flattered.
Yes, I am flattered.
Before, he just thought Ye Feng was mysterious and interesting, but when he came to the school, met the teachers, and talked to Dumbledore for a while to learn what Ye Feng had done, he was a little scared.
Putting aside the talismans and flying brooms, the fact that Dumbledore openly criticized but subtly praised Ye Feng was enough for Lupin to take it seriously. Moreover, from Dumbledore's helpless expression, Lupin realized that Dumbledore probably couldn't do anything about Ye Feng either.
It's not that Lupin thought Dumbledore couldn't beat Ye Feng, but he could tell from the helplessness on Dumbledore's face that Ye Feng had definitely caused Dumbledore a lot of trouble. Yet, in the end, Ye Feng wasn't expelled or even punished, which was quite intriguing.
Judging from the fact that Ye Feng dared to let Harry catch the Dementors and that Dumbledore did not punish him after his return, Lupin felt that this kind of outrageous thing might not be the first time it had happened.
Therefore, when faced with a senior student who always gave him answers like, "Ye Feng? He's a very capable and kind person, I even think he's more capable than the professor," Lu Ping felt it was better to be friendly.
As it turned out, Lupin's idea was correct. After singing the school song, Dumbledore introduced him to the students, announced that the Ministry of Magic would allow Dementors to reside at Hogwarts, and warned the students not to give the Dementors any reason to harm them. Then, when he announced the start of the banquet, Lupin finally understood just how powerful Ye Feng really was, looking at the sumptuous and luxurious Chinese food in front of him.
But his shock had only just begun, because when he leaned back contentedly after finishing his meal and looked up, he discovered something that shocked him: the roof of the restaurant was empty!
"Professor McGonagall, is the roof of this restaurant... gone? Won't the wind and rain affect the people inside?"
“Oh, you mean that? The roof was blown off when Ye Feng first came to Hogwarts, but he set up a magic circle on the roof, so Professor Lupin, you don’t need to worry about that at all.”
"Gulu~"
"Exploded...and flew away?"
"Yeah, it was blown up, and we don't know where it flew to."
Upon hearing Professor McGonagall's words, a bead of cold sweat trickled down Lupin's forehead, as he recalled how Azkaban had been nearly destroyed by a rooftop attack two years earlier.
"It's true! I never expected that the 'teasing' on the show was actually true. It really is the roof of Hogwarts. It's a pity that nobody believes it."
Chapter 141 can actually be interpreted this way? (Part 1)
This year's entrance meal was quite lavish, and because there were so many dishes to choose from, almost everyone could find something to their liking. As a result, almost everyone ate until their bellies were round, and many of the new young wizards were so full they could hardly move.
Having had a similar experience, Ye Feng knew how it felt, so he specially instructed the house-elves in the Hogwarts kitchen to prepare some soup to aid digestion and send it to them. However, to Ye Feng's surprise, Dumbledore and Snape also asked for a portion.
At Hogwarts, the Sorting Ceremony is always the most exciting part of the school year. Unfortunately, the show doesn't mention who came in the later classes, so Ye Feng doesn't know them. However, for some reason, many students would glance at him during the Sorting Ceremony, and even after he left the dining hall after dinner, people would still look at him frequently.
"No, although I am indeed very handsome and have a remarkable temperament, even if I can keep a low profile, I would still be the most eye-catching person in a crowd, so why do more first-year wizard juniors look at me than junior girls?"
With these questions in mind, Ye Feng arrived at the divination classroom that had been added to their class this semester.
Divination is a course that begins in the third year, but it's optional for Ye Feng, since he has another title at Hogwarts—the Prophecy Prince.
Although none of the long-standing prophecies have come true yet, Duanqi's prophecies are quite reliable. For example, after he had just told Voldemort that he would suffer a bloody disaster, a few chapters later, he lost a 'clone'.
Perhaps it was for this reason that Professor Trelawney, the Divination teacher, had his eyes light up the moment he saw Ye Feng. After all, there weren't many diviners in the magical world, and although Ye Feng wasn't well-known outside of the wizarding world, he was practically a household name at Hogwarts.
"Ye Feng, would you be interested in becoming my assistant in the divination class?"
Ye Feng: [?_??]
Professor Trelawney's words left Ye Feng puzzled, because Hogwarts generally did not have teaching assistant positions, and although he had the title of Hogwarts' prophetic little prince, to be honest, he didn't really know much about divination, since divination and fortune-telling were quite different.
Predictions are calculations made about something, using various phenomena to arrive at the result of something you want to know. It's similar to big data today. It doesn't come out of thin air, but requires certain information. Moreover, the more comprehensive the information, the more accurate the result will be.
But divination is different. It is a kind of prophecy, the ability to directly derive a result that may be completely unrelated to a certain phenomenon from a certain phenomenon. It does not require calculation.
So when Professor Trelawney invited him to be his assistant, Ye Feng was genuinely a bit stunned. However, he quickly realized what was going on and directly refused Professor Trelawney, stating that he didn't know anything about divination, only a few tricks of calculation and prediction.
Professor Trelawney was a little disappointed by Ye Feng's rejection, but she still faithfully fulfilled her duties, introducing divination before starting the class.
"Alright, students, now I'm going to teach you the most common and simplest divination method: the tea divination method."
"See the teacups on your table? Drink the tea in your teacups, then exchange teacups with your tablemates and carefully observe the shape of the tea leaves at the bottom of the cup."
"Gulu~"
(╯︵╰)
Ye Feng's brows furrowed instantly after taking a sip, because this tea was... way too damn bitter and too damn astringent. So Ye Feng raised his hand.
Seeing Ye Feng raise his hand, Professor Trelawney's eyes lit up instantly, and he quickly gestured for Ye Feng to speak. After receiving permission, Ye Feng frowned and said, "Professor, may I not finish this tea and just pour it out?"
Trelawney: ∑(?△`)? !
"Ye Feng, why do you have such thoughts? Divination is a very serious course. Pouring out the tea and drinking it directly may lead to two completely different results in the divination. Therefore, if you want to get an accurate divination result, you must finish the tea in the cup."
Ye Feng: (;′⌒`)
"But professor, this tea is really...too bitter, too awful, and there's a ton of it!!!"
Trelawney: Σ(っ°Д°;)っ
Professor Trelawney was completely stunned by Ye Feng's words. She picked up her teacup and took a sip, but her confusion deepened after she finished, because the tea was exactly the same as usual.
"Hmm... I'll prepare boiling water next time so you can brew it yourselves, but don't put in too little tea leaves, or you won't be able to form a pattern."
