Hogwarts: I'm Harry's older cousin

Chapter 84, Section 82: I've Only Come to Hogwarts to Do Three Things (Second Update)

The Discipline Group, simply put, is responsible for handling discipline and violations, managing campus discipline and maintaining campus security. It sounds a lot like a female chicken coop, but it has more than just these responsibilities.

Hearing what Dudley said, Dumbledore asked uncertainly, "You mean the prefects?"

The duties of a class leader are actually similar to those mentioned above, but they also have the additional responsibility of guiding new students, which is essentially the role of a teacher's assistant.

"No," Dudley shook his head.

"The disciplinary committee exists above the prefects, and can supervise the prefects' performance of their duties, and is not limited to the four colleges."

"In other words, if I were a member of the disciplinary committee, I could oversee four colleges."

The class monitor is responsible for managing the students, so the discipline group exists to manage the class monitor, which can also be understood as the student council. But Dali wants more than just a mere student council.

Furthermore, Hogwarts has a student council, although it only has two positions: male and female student council president.

"If necessary, even if a professor violates the rules, the disciplinary team will conduct an assessment and may impose penalties accordingly."

Not all professors have the right values; some are simply unfit to be teachers. Moreover, in a relatively relaxed school like Hogwarts, professors are hired without even undergoing assessments.

The disciplinary team exists to show them that if you are not suitable to be a professor, you will be kicked out.

This power is even greater than that of the college dean.

At the very least, none of them could bring themselves to punish a professor.

The "discipline group" that Dali mentioned is actually the discipline inspection group, or simply that.

"Dali, you should know that even a vice principal like Professor McGonagall doesn't have this kind of power."

At this point, Dumbledore no longer regarded Dudley as just a junior wizard; the change in address was the most obvious manifestation of this.

He is very intelligent and extremely talented, especially in potions, where he is even more gifted than that other person. With Snape's guidance, he will soon become a top potions master.

"Then such organizations should have regulators."

The power was too great for Dumbledore to ignore, and he looked directly at Dudley again, trying to see through his intentions.

"Of course." Dudley nodded, looking Dumbledore in the eye again. "The disciplinary group is directly under the Headmaster's jurisdiction."

Dumbledore didn't get any of the answers he wanted; instead, his mind was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of information.

"You must know St. George's, and I'm sure you've looked into that school. What do you think of the school's safety?"

Dumbledore must have known about the Muggle school Harry attended; that's for sure.

"very nice."

Dumbledore nodded and praised without reservation: "It can be said to be the most peaceful public primary school in all of Britain."

It's not just universities that are microcosms of society; primary schools are too, and primary school students have their own unique ways of socializing.

"But it wasn't like that before; bullying, exclusion, discrimination, and violence were everywhere."

Dudley stated, "What I did there, I will do at Hogwarts."

"You want to be a member of the discipline group you mentioned, or rather, you are ambitious and confident in becoming the group leader."

Dumbledore looked at the other person with a very complicated expression.

Unlike one of his students who liked to hide himself, he was too much like that person.

"Of course. I never deny that."

Dudley said, "But I just want a peaceful life, Professor."

"Spending several years of peaceful school life with Harry, Hermione, and the others."

"Professor Dumbledore, do you remember when I asked you before coming to Hogwarts, was Hogwarts safe?"

Dali suddenly asked a question.

Your answer at the time was "safe!"

Without waiting for Dumbledore, he continued speaking in a self-answering manner.

"No investigation, no right to speak. I have personally studied here for several months."

"I believe I am quite qualified to speak on this matter."

Dudley raised his head, and two pairs of equally azure eyes met, their gazes clashing in the air.

This time, Dumbledore read nothing in the other's eyes except for a vast expanse of blue, like the ocean.

"Then let me tell you, it's not safe here. Hogwarts is not safe, not at all, it's even dangerous."

"Danger? What makes you feel danger?"

Dumbledore was very puzzled, as Hogwarts was recognized as the safest place in the entire wizarding world.

"Besides the worrying teaching quality and the disgusting atmosphere, there is also that dangerous individual who disappeared more than ten years ago."

"As far as I know, the entire wizarding world believes that Harry killed him."

"If I were him, the first thing I'd do when I got back would be kill Harry."

It goes without saying who this dangerous individual is.

Why do you think he's not dead?

At that moment, Dumbledore even forgot to eat the candy.

Snape, on the other side, didn't know how to describe his feelings at this moment. He didn't express any opinion, but just stood there quietly with a blank expression.

I'll just listen and not say anything.

"Originally, this was just a hypothesis. In layman's terms, if no body was seen and death was not confirmed, it could be defined as such. A lot of evidence suggests that he has simply gone missing or is hiding, not that he is truly dead. Perhaps he is in poor condition, clinging to life in some corner, but he will eventually come back."

"What the Daily Prophet said back then was just a bunch of people deceiving themselves."

Dudley looked at Dumbledore and said meaningfully, "I've earned quite a few certificates and degrees in the world of ordinary people, one of which is criminology."

I obtained the degree not long after the company was founded.

Dumbledore neither confirmed nor denied it, but the very act of not denying it was itself a form of confirmation.

Snape's eyes widened. The man wasn't dead?! This was the last thing he wanted to believe.

"So, what are you going to do?"

Dumbledore's expression turned serious, and he stared intently at Dudley.

Dudley ignored the other person's gaze and held up three fingers: "I only know how to do three things."

"Fair, fair, or fucking fair!"

"Just like I did at St. George's Elementary School, and then... unite all forces that can be united."

Fairness is the foundation of everything.

"Dali, swearing is not a good thing, especially since you're just a little kid."

"I'm not small at all."

Dumbledore:

"I need to think about it."

Dumbledore neither immediately agreed nor immediately denied, and after eating another honey candy, he said...

"This matter is of great importance, and the power you desire is too great; I may not be able to grant it to you."

The requirements of supervising the prefects' duties and monitoring the junior wizards of the four houses are actually quite easy to meet, but the professors' requirements are...

All professors who come to Hogwarts have signed a contract with Hogwarts, and only the headmaster has the power to expel and punish them. The headmaster cannot delegate this power to anyone else.

Unless Dali can obtain the appropriate permissions.

"You should know that I am just an ordinary principal with only a little bit of authority."

Dudley: "."

That old geezer, I don't believe you for a second.

After a short while, Dali came out of the principal's office. He had said everything he needed to say, and it was almost time for the Halloween dinner.

Shortly after Dudley left, Dumbledore turned to Snape and asked softly.

"Severus, what do you think of him? I mean Dudley Dessley."
