Chapter 430 There is a Vampire
Chapter 430 There is a Vampire
December 1996, 12, Friday, heavy snow.
The last class of 96, "Okay, this class is over," Sainz announced, "I wish everyone a comfortable Christmas holiday!"
"yeah!"
"Long live!"
"awesome!"
Everyone cheered as they went out of the fence, because Professor Autumn never left homework during holidays, and this time was no exception.
After the students left, Sainz tapped his wand, restored the messy observation room, and walked briskly towards the castle.
When passing by Hagrid's house, I saw Fang's family.
"Oh, these little ones of yours are growing up so fast. They must have inherited your genes, Yaya. You grew really fast when you were little."
Yaya circled around Sainz affectionately, while Mumu kept an eye on his own cubs very responsibly, trying to prevent them from being buried in the snow.
Just after leaving the nest, puppies are curious about everything, and they are bold and dare to try anything.
They have to watch it, because this is a magical world, and it is very likely that an inconspicuous little bug on the roadside is something they can't afford to mess with.
The reason why Yaya can follow Haig in the Forbidden Forest safely is because of his cowardice... cough... because of his self-awareness.
After such a long time, Mumu was naturally influenced by Yaya and mastered the skill of going back and forth in the Forbidden Forest.
"Where's Hagrid? Not home again?"
The door of Hagrid's hut was not locked, and the huge crossbow that he always kept next to the door was missing. The moleskin coat that he always carried with him was naturally not at home.
Hagrid's moleskin coat has lots of pockets, so don't be surprised what he can pull out of them.
A copper kettle for brewing tea, a dormice that can't wake up, toffee that sticks to people's teeth, or an egg of unknown origin, or a small red umbrella that doesn't fit his huge body...
"I guess he went to visit his old friend in the Forbidden Forest again."
When Tom was patrolling the Forbidden Forest, he caught a fleeting glimpse of Hagrid, who was cautiously moving deeper into the forest.
There aren't many things in the Forbidden Forest today that can make Hagrid so cautious. Unicorns generally don't actively attack people. The centaurs retreated wisely after being taught a lesson by Sainz. The giant Grawp has become alert. Only the Acromantula tribe is a little "unstable".
Not only Tom, but Sainz also saw Hagrid from afar when he was in the Forbidden Forest, but he did not go up to say hello. After all, he was going to contain the Acromantula.
It was shown in the original trajectory that after Hagrid's talking pet died, he was no longer useful in the Acromantula tribe. Even in the final battle, it was the Acromantulas who captured Hagrid and carried him to Voldemort.
For Hagrid's sake, Sainz didn't take any harsh measures against these things for the time being. When Hagrid's friend died, the colony of eight-eyed giant spiders in the Forbidden Forest disappeared.
He would not kill them all. There would only be one more animal colony in the Hogwarts enclosure. Planned conservation was also the responsibility of the professor of the magical creatures class.
He took out the meat to feed the dog and stayed with them for a while.
Sainz suddenly felt a very bad aura appearing inside the gate of Hogwarts. "Have fun by yourselves. Don't stay outside for too long. Be careful of catching a cold. I have to leave. There may be something over there that needs to be dealt with."
He secretly changed his wand and walked quickly towards the road that the Thestral carriage often took.
Seeing two people from a distance, Sainz's eyes fixed, and he took a few steps with big strides to the middle of the road. "Although it may be a bit presumptuous, may I know what the two gentlemen are doing in coming to Hogwarts?"
One of the short men wearing glasses was startled, and seemed a little confused as to why he was stopped. "This... um... young gentleman, I'm Elder Walpole."
After saying that, he put on a smile on his face and made an artificial salute, as if he was expecting something. The scene seemed a little familiar to Sainz.
Hmm... why... ah... turns out he does behave a bit like Lockhart, but, in terms of figure and appearance, this guy with glasses is very different from Lockhart.
You can say Lockhart is a scumbag, but you can't deny that he has an outstanding appearance.
Thinking of Lockhart, Sainz understood that this guy was probably a so-called celebrity. He probably thought that everyone knew him and would treat him with courtesy when they heard his name.
"Okay, then Mr. Walpole," Sainz said calmly, "you and this, if I'm not mistaken, this is a vampire, what do you have to do at school?"
Mr. Walpole's expression flickered. He seemed a little embarrassed and a little surprised that Sainz didn't recognize him. "This...?"
"Autumn."
"Autumn, the respected Mr. Autumn," Walper seemed very smooth, "may I ask why you came to inquire about our purpose?"
"Mr. Walple, I think you may have heard that the wizarding world is not very stable right now, and Hogwarts is under martial law. Suddenly, two people who are not students appear in the school. I can't help but be curious. What's more... this gentleman looks like he wants to bite someone at any time..."
Sainz was not looking for trouble. The vampire next to this man was tall and thin, with dark circles under his eyes as if he had not slept well for two months, and there was a flash of hunger in his eyes from time to time.
"I'm sorry," Worple seemed a little annoyed by Sainz's scrutiny of the vampire, "We have been invited by Professor Slughorn, and I don't think you have the right to stop us from passing."
"I see," Sainz nodded, "With Professor Slughorn's invitation, there is naturally no problem. His office is on the seventh floor of the castle. I happen to have something to do upstairs, so let me be your guide."
"Thank you," said Walper, "by chance we know the place, so you won't have to lead the way."
Idiot, you have no shame!
Sainz said coldly: "But I insist!"
Walpole's expression froze, "Uh... okay."
"Then, gentlemen, this way please."
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward and the air suddenly became quiet.
When we arrived near the castle, a student greeted us enthusiastically, "Hello, Professor Autumn."
Sainz smiled and returned the greetings one by one.
Upon hearing that Sainz was also a professor, the expression on Walper's face changed several times. He seemed to regret not asking clearly just now, and seemed to want to find a new topic to ease the situation, but Sainz did not give him a chance. He just talked to the students who followed him.
"Professor Autumn, is he a vampire?"
"Yes, Mr. Creevey, you seem to be paying attention in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, but if I were you, I wouldn't get so close to you."
This Creevey is called Dennis Creevey, and he is Harry's little fanboy - Colin's biological brother. He is just in the third grade this year and has chosen Sainz's class.
Sai's words made Wopul very dissatisfied, "Professor Autumn, I'm sorry I didn't know you were a professor, but the bloody ni doesn't bite!"
"Really? That's great. But can you explain the way he looked at those girls?"
