The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

If there is one subject at Hogwarts that remains unchanged no matter what happens, it must be History of Magic.

Professor Binns still used his hypnotic method in class, talking about the goblin rebellion incident. Sun Zhu simply brought the book he borrowed to class. Reading the magical chronicle was much more interesting than attending the class.

And once she tried to listen to the class seriously, she would inevitably fall asleep. In order to ensure that she would not fall asleep in class, Sun Zhu had no choice but to not listen to the class.

Anyway, before the exam, you can just copy and memorize the notes of the leader of the Badger College, and it won't be difficult to get an excellent grade.

At the end of the History of Magic class, Sun Zhu had only read one-tenth of the book. It was the first time he felt that the History of Magic class had passed so quickly.

She woke up the sleepy Karina and Fina and went to the Transfiguration classroom together.

But everything changed within a minute after they stepped into the classroom.

Karina, in contrast to her depressed attitude in the History of Magic class, rushed to the podium in two or three steps, picked up a tabby cat on the table, held it in her arms and waved at them, "Look, there's a cat we haven't seen before! Who brought a pet into the classroom?"

Sun Zhu seemed to be petrified on the spot, his mouth opened into an "O" shape, and he lost the ability to speak.

Fina looked at her helplessly and said, "Karina, don't be so excited. The cat is scared by you."

Sun Zhu looked at the motionless tabby cat in Karina's arms, not knowing who to feel sorry for.

Professor McGonagall was definitely not shocked. She was probably just thinking about how to deduct points from Hufflepuff.

Sun Zhu said with difficulty: "Karina, put the cat down first..."

"Wow--" A whistle was heard not far away, and the twins came over one after another. After they saw the situation clearly, they bowed to Carina and said, "Ms. Jones, you are sincerely invited to join Gryffindor."

"You're perfect for Gryffindor!"

Sun Zhu looked at them with a frown on his face. Cedric also looked over and then revealed an expression that he couldn't bear to watch.

Only the naive Karina still looked confused. Sun Zhu made up his mind, stepped forward, took the cat professor out of Karina's arms, put her back to her original position, then bowed to her, and quickly pulled Karina to sit in the last row of the classroom.

As for how Karina wanted to scream but didn't dare to when she saw the cat turn back into Professor McGonagall, Sun Zhu didn't want to recall it.

"Zhu, you clearly knew that it was, Professor McGonagall! How did you know?" After class, Karina finally started to feel scared. Even though Professor McGonagall did not deduct points from Hufflepuff for this, she still felt a lingering fear.

"Well, my dad works for the Ministry of Magic. He talked to me about this and naturally mentioned Professor McGonagall. After all, Professor McGonagall is an officially registered Animagus, so there is nothing to hide."

Sun Zhu felt that the reason "my dad said so" was even more useful than "I'm afraid of Snape".

"Okay, then...what about the others?" Carina looked around and glanced at the twins who were chatting with Angelina not far away. "It's normal for the Gryffindors, especially the Weasleys, to know this, but why do you also..."

Karina glanced at Fina and Cedric and accused, "You all knew about this, but no one told me in advance!"

"I don't know." Fina raised a hand and said, "But I won't attack a cat as soon as I see it like you do, so I don't need anyone to remind me."

"Well, I..." Cedric was a little embarrassed, "My father works in the Department of Magical Creatures. Animagus must be registered in the Beast Office under it. My father happens to know this."

"Well, you all have a good father..." Karina muttered, "My father stays at home drawing comics, studying and drawing his story about a magical girl and a Muggle scientist every day. He would never tell me these things."

Fina, however, looked very interested: "That sounds great, has your father's comics been published as a book?"

"Mother recommended that he should first serialize it in Muggle newspapers and then publish it... Anyway, I don't really understand it."

Cedric glanced at the two people who were discussing Muggle comics, and whispered to Sun Zhu, "Do you know why Professor McGonagall suddenly started teaching us about Animagus?"

Sun Zhu looked at him with some surprise and guessed, "I think it's because she wants us to be on guard. She doesn't want first-year students to become Animagus, right?"

Cedric nodded. "There are more and more unregistered wild Animagus in the wizarding world nowadays. They can easily pose hidden dangers, so the professors and the headmaster will warn us in advance to be careful of abnormal animals."

Sun Zhu just smiled and said nothing. Her father had already told her something similar. In some ways, he had always been very foresighted.

Karina's mood quickly calmed down because of her father's magic comics, but she became nervous again because of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in the afternoon.

"From heaven to hell, this is it, Takenori, Fina. I never knew that one day I would be so afraid of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class!"

"Just get used to it." Sun Zhu patted her shoulder.

To be honest, she was also very curious about how Professor Snape would teach Defense Against the Dark Arts. She remembered that when he was filling in for Professor Lupin, his werewolf identity was directly exposed, although indirectly.

This time I'm covering for Sirius...

Sirius Black had revealed Lupin's identity as a werewolf a long time ago, although few people believed it, and even fewer knew that he was referring to Lupin.

But this can also be considered as following Snape's path and leaving Snape with no way to go, right?

During class, Sun Zhu was not surprised to hear Snape mock Sirius for ten minutes in a straightforward, direct and undisguised manner. After he had comprehensively despised Sirius's teaching level, teaching methods and teaching attitude, he slowly said, "I hope you can have a basic understanding of the dark arts. Just because you are first-year students, you avoid teaching dangerous things? Ridiculous."

He took out his wand, tapped the table, and then lowered his voice and said, "Dark wizards will not show mercy just because you are young. You must learn what is the most dangerous."

After saying that, he waved his wand and turned something into a mouse.

The more Sun Zhu looked at it, the more he felt that the ugly mouse looked like Peter.

Then he heard Snape whisper, "Crucio!"

The mouse let out a heart-wrenching scream.

The sound scared the little snakes and badgers in the seats. Sun Zhu frowned and reacted.

It is one of the three unforgivable curses, Cruciatus Curse.

"If you hear this spell, I think, if you are not too stupid, you should understand what will happen if you don't dodge it in time." Snape pointed at the dying mouse, "Of course, I would rather hope that the troll can understand me than expect you to dodge it. Although, this is the easiest spell to dodge among the three unforgivable curses."

If one wanted to avoid the Cruciatus Curse, the best way was to hide behind a hard object and let the obstacle block the attack for him; the Imperius Curse was often released inadvertently and was hard to guard against; as for the Killing Curse... Sun Zhu clenched his wand slightly.

If the killing curse is unstoppable, then she will make sure that the person who cast the curse has no chance to fight back. She will also make sure that the person who manipulated the killing is completely defeated.

Sun Zhu glanced at Snape, who calmly used green light to kill the mouse, and silently gave him a thumbs up in his heart.

Snape happened to notice that this girl was different from the other girls who were pale and obviously frightened.

The boys, especially the Slytherins, were all trying to stay calm. A few Hufflepuffs screamed in surprise, which was very disappointing. Diggory was calm, but you could see that he was frowning in obvious discomfort.

Only this Hufflepuff who had lied to him the last time - after all, this was truly a unique experience - looked at him and even smiled.

Snape frowned, feeling that this person was not simple.
