Professor Rupert Hogwarts

Chapter 182 Buckbeak Punishment Notice
"Professor Eisen, will you go to Hogsmeade tomorrow?" Ron suddenly asked.

"Hogsmeade? Hmm-" Eisen hesitated immediately.

To say that during this period, Aisen really had nothing to do.After all, whether it is learning knowledge or practicing magic spells, it can all be completed in the dream world.As a result, time in the real world suddenly became abundant.

However, going to Hogsmeade with the little wizard doesn't seem to be a big deal.

Thinking like this, Eisen glanced at Hermione, and seeing the expectant look on her face, he simply nodded and replied: "You can also go to Hogsmeade for a walk!"

Normally, during Hogsmeade week, when students go there, professors will follow them. The purpose is to prevent students from having any accidents.

Just like last time, Professors Snape and McGonagall both went along.

However, unlike the students who happily wandered around Hogsmeade, the professors did not have that idea.After all, professors can go to Hogsmeade as they please.

For them, Hogsmeade is like the back garden of their own home, they are already so familiar that they can no longer be familiar with it.So, who goes out of their way to hang out in their yard?

Snowflakes were falling at Hogwarts Castle on Saturday morning, and it was unusually quiet outside.

Walking through the hall, Eisen met Harry, Hermione, Ron and others wearing cloaks and scarves.Several people were chattering about something.It could be seen that Harry's mood was particularly high.

Harry had written to Black last night and seemed to have obtained his signature agreeing to go to Hogsmeade.

Led by a group of professors, the little wizards came to the village of Hogsmeade.

Different from the commercial streets in modern society, people come and go wearing strange clothes. The shops on both sides of the street are arranged irregularly. The signboards at the door are shining with colorful light, and the words and paintings are enchanted to swim in the air.

Of course, the most eye-catching thing is that there are holly garlands on the door of each store, and magic candles are hung in strings on the trees.

Eisen has been here before, so his desire to explore Hogsmeade is not that strong.

Professor McGonagall and others went directly to the Three Broomsticks Bar.Eisen volunteered to take up the patrol mission.The little wizards happily entered Devis-Bans store, Zuko's joke shop...

From the outside, it looks like Christmas is in full swing this year, even in Hogsmeade.Whether it is a small hut or a shop, it is covered with a layer of crunchy snow.

For Eisen, patrolling the entire Hogsmeade was just a matter of a moment.

After transforming into light, the whole world stopped in Eisen's eyes.Then, Eisen spent a ten thousandth of a second walking around the entire Hogsmeade.

When Aisen recovered, the world became noisy again.

The trio entered Honeydukes Candy Shop, and Eisen noticed that they stopped under an "Unusual Flavors" sign at the far end of the store.

Looking around, there were bloody lollipops and clumps of cockroach skewers.Ron said something enthusiastically, but both Hermione and Harry showed disgusted expressions.

Eisen turned around and came to the Three Broomsticks Bar. He saw Professor McGonagall and others leaning against the window. A Christmas tree next to them blocked their figures.However, Hagrid's figure was so tall that the upper half of his body was exposed.

"Professor Eisen, are you done with your inspection?" Professor Flitwick picked up a glass of red wine, poured it into his mouth and burped.

"I'm faster." Eisen said expressionlessly and asked the owner, Ms. Rosmerta, for a glass of cherry juice.

After a quick glance, Eisen found that Hagrid's mood was a little low.He was holding the hot mead, taking a sip from time to time, and just nodded to Eisen's arrival.

"Merry Christmas!" Eisen gestured to Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick, then looked at Hagrid: "Hagrid, what's going on?"

"Bad news!" Hearing Eisen ask, Hagrid's eyes seemed to be a little red, and then handed an envelope to Eisen.

After taking the envelope, Eisen opened it, only to see something written on it:
"Dear Mr. Hagrid, we have further investigated the incident of a hippogriff attacking a student in your class. We have accepted Professor Dumbledore's assurance that you are not responsible for this regrettable incident. responsibility--"

"However, we must express our concern about this problematic hippogriff. We have decided to uphold Mr. Lucius Malfoy's formal complaint and the matter will therefore be referred to the Committee for the Disposal of Dangerous Creatures... "

"... We will hold a hearing at the Commission's London offices on April th, and we request that you and your Hippogriff should attend on that date. In the meantime, the Hippogriff should attend Tethered and isolated. Your colleagues..."

"That's not true. Everyone knows that your Buckbeak is not an evil hippogriff!" Eisen comforted him as he slapped the letter on the table.

"You don't understand those weirdos on the Dangerous Creatures Committee!" Hagrid said, tears seemed to fall down: "They are going to get involved with these interesting animals, and they are going to kill it!"

Uh--

Hagrid's mood did become a little richer, but when he thought of Hagrid calling them interesting animals, Eisen couldn't bear to look at it.

To others, they are somewhat scary animals, but to Hagrid, they are either funny or cute.It can only be said that Hagrid is indeed extremely talented.

Before Eisen could say anything, the door to the Broomstick Bar suddenly opened, and Hermione, Harry, and Ron strode in, rubbing their hands.

Following Eisen's gaze, Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick, and Hagrid all focused on the trio.The trio, who originally wanted to come in and drink a few cups of butterbeer, were stunned for a moment.

The trio quietly sat in the empty seats next to them, and the firelight rising from the nearby fireplace brought them a lot of warmth.Noticing what Eisen said, Harry and Hermione pricked up their ears and listened.

"That's Ms. Rosmerta, I'm going to order a drink!" Ron looked at a woman with a graceful figure and a trademark face at the bar, and his face was a little red.

After saying that, Ron rushed over eagerly.

There were quite a few young wizards in the Three Broomsticks bar, so when the trio arrived, the professors didn't pay much attention and looked away.

Eisen smiled and nodded towards the trio, then turned to look at Hagrid: "Don't worry, look, there are still four months until the hearing on April , I think you need to prepare some strong A strong argument that proves Buckbeak is innocent!"

"That's useless!" Hagrid took a big sip of wine and said angrily: "Those demons on the Dangerous Creatures Committee were bribed by Lucius Malfoy. If I lose the case, Buckbeak—— "

Aisen nodded slightly, showing a thoughtful expression.In fact, this kind of thing is not a big deal.But Lucius insisted on holding on.

After Lucius failed to remove Dumbledore as Hogwarts Headmaster last year, he was kicked out of the school board.Naturally, the reputation of the Malfoy family is not as good as before.

Therefore, in order to boost the family's reputation again, Lucius seized an opportunity. As long as he could make a breakthrough from Hagrid and Buckbeak, it would mean that he and Dumbledore would win the next game.

In this way, he can regain the family's lost prestige.

Apparently, it had been so long since Draco Malfoy was injured that the Ministry of Magic and the school board had already had some negotiations.

Eisen guessed that the Hogwarts school directors were unwilling to offend Dumbledore, but they were also unwilling to give up the gold galleons sent by the Malfoy family.

Therefore, Dumbledore ensured that Hagrid would not bear any responsibility, but Buckbeak, the hippogriff, would be executed.

This was the result of an exchange of interests. As for the hearing, Eisen felt that it was just an unnecessary procedure.It can be said that if there are no other accidents, Buckbeak's execution is destined.
