Hogwarts: I graduated before the system came

"Professor, you must not go in there alone. Let's call other professors to come along."

Douglas walked to the gate and said lightly:

"If Harry really went in, then the other professors should have come as well.

Besides, you probably haven't figured out how to open this door yet."

Ron nodded subconsciously, then quickly shook his head when he realized something was wrong.

Douglas grabbed the edge of the door and gently pulled it outwards. It originally looked like a double door, but it opened like a single door.

Ron stammered:

"Professor, then...then...that door crack and door lock are fake?"

Ron and Harry really didn't expect that it was just a simple toilet door, why would it be so confusing.

It doesn't look like a wizard's method at all.

Douglas said again:

"Mr. Potter, the invisibility cloak is not a panacea!"

Harry knew he could no longer hide it, so he crawled out from under the Invisibility Cloak, his face pale and trembling as he stood next to Ron.

Douglas saw the glittering silver fabric in Harry's hand, which was worthy of being one of the Deathly Hallows. It looked different from an ordinary invisibility cloak alone.

But Harry had no intention of handing in the Invisibility Cloak.

Douglas had no choice but to stretch out his hand and say:

"Give me the invisibility cloak first, and I'll return it to you during the holidays!"

Harry hesitated for a moment, thinking that it would be better for him to behave himself at this time, and that Professor Holmes did not seem like the kind of person who would keep his treasure for himself.

After all, the other party can see through the invisibility cloak at a glance, which means he doesn't need the invisibility cloak at all, just like Dumbledore.

Douglas took the invisibility cloak and found that it did feel different from ordinary invisibility cloaks. It felt strange in his hand, as if it was woven out of water.

Douglas seemed very satisfied with Harry's performance, and then said:

"You guys come with me!"

Harry cast a lingering glance at the bathroom door, then he and Ron followed Douglas.

Ron was extremely depressed. What had he done tonight?

Not only did they not get any extra points, but they were both discovered.

Along the way, Douglas didn't ask them anything.

This made the two even more uneasy.

When they reached the door of the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, Douglas said:

"You two, stand at the door and reflect on this!"

After saying that, he stuffed the invisibility cloak into the special pocket and walked into the office.

The office, which was bustling with discussion just now, suddenly became quiet.

When Draco Malfoy saw Douglas come in, he looked happy and quickly stood up and said:

"Professor, the Weasley twins were messing with your things after you left."

Douglas glanced at him calmly, then looked at George and Fred:

"Did you find anything?"

George immediately said:

"It's a lock that's been cast a Transfiguration Charm."

Fred added:

"Based on the situation at the time, it should be related to something. When that thing reacts, the lock will also react..."

Douglas nodded and said:

"It seems like you have really made progress. Then deduct two points from Gryffindor and add one point to Slytherin."

Draco tilted his neck, raised his eyebrows proudly at the other Slytherin class representatives, and sat down proudly, not noticing the strange looks from George and Fred at all.

Chapter 140: I know I’m wrong once I ask, but I won’t change after asking again

Harry and Ron stood blankly in the office doorway for over an hour.

They didn't know what kind of punishment they would receive next. After all, summer vacation would start the day after tomorrow, and they couldn't let them memorize the text.

During this time, Filch walked back and forth several times, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and each time he looked at them with a strange smile.

Inside the office.

Finally, all the students finished grading their test papers.

Douglas snapped his fingers, and a cabinet in the corner suddenly opened. Many wrapped small gifts flew out and landed precisely in everyone's hands.

Douglas smiled and said:

"You are like hardworking little bees, your teachers' right-hand men; you are like the warm sun, serving your classmates without complaint or regret; your hard work is seen by everyone and deeply touched.

You are all the best class representatives. This small gift represents my heartfelt thanks, and each class representative here will get 30 points for his or her college.

Of course, George and Fred can only get 10 points, and the remaining 20 points should be given to Angelina. "

Hearing this, the other class representatives burst into laughter, and George and Fred winked at each other in a funny way.

Finally, Douglas asked Hermione to stay and the others could leave first.

Hermione didn't know why she was suddenly left behind and wondered if there was something wrong with her exam.

When the class representatives came out, they were very surprised to see two people standing at the door. They didn't expect that the exam was over and there were still students being arrested.

At this moment, Ron and Harry really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

The Slytherin let out a strange laugh, and if there weren't a few Gryffindors following behind them, Draco would have wanted to mock the two of them.

Everyone who came out couldn't help but slow down their pace, wanting to hear what these two students who caused such a big trouble at the end of last semester had done this time.

Ginny asked doubtfully:

"what's going on?"

Ron said impatiently:

"Mind yourself."

Ginny snorted coldly, George and Fred stepped forward, put their arms around Ron's neck, and said with a sneer:

"Ronald (Ron's official name) has grown up and has even learned to bully his sister."

"You guys are amazing! We haven't dared to go out at night this semester..."

Harry silently took a step to the side and smiled sheepishly at Ginny.

At this time, Douglas's voice came from the office:

"You two, come in!"

When the others heard the professor's voice, they quickly made way for the two.

Ron broke free from the grip of his two brothers, walked into the office with Harry, and closed the door directly.

As soon as the two of them entered, the students outside suddenly rushed to the door and pressed their ears against it, trying to hear what was going on.

However, due to Filch's arrival, everyone had to leave the corridor.

Inside the office.

Hermione looked at Harry and Ron in surprise. She suddenly had a bad feeling.

Douglas glanced at the two of them and said coldly:

"Gryffindor should have deducted 50 points from each of you for your actions, but since you didn't enter the forbidden area, 30 points will be deducted from each of you..."

Ron and Harry kept looking at their toes and didn't say anything.

But Hermione opened her mouth wide. All the Gryffindor class representatives had only scored 150 points in total just now, and now 60 points were gone.

"What on earth did you do?"

Douglas walked to the tea table, gestured to Hermione and said:

"Sit down first, we have time to talk slowly."

But Ron and Harry kept their heads down and didn't notice Douglas's gesture. They thought they could sit down. After all, they had been standing for more than an hour and their legs were numb.

As a result, Hermione, who had just sat down, looked at the two of them in shock, and actually pulled over a chair and wanted to sit down naturally.

At this moment, Hermione wanted to swear that she didn't know these two guys at all. She didn't understand what mistakes they had made to keep her.

Douglas saw the two people's actions and said angrily:

"When did I ask you to sit down? Stand still and tell me what you did wrong."

The two were stunned and stood up quickly.

Harry gritted his teeth and said boldly:

"Professor, I'm not wrong. It's been so long, and you and the headmaster haven't gotten rid of the basilisk yet... and... and Voldemort is probably in the Chamber of Secrets, and he will destroy Hogwarts."

Hermione and Ron looked at Harry in surprise. They didn't expect Harry to dare to say that at this time.

Douglas looked at Harry, and Harry looked back.

He thought that maybe because of his presence, there were no basilisk attacks at Hogwarts this year, causing Harry to ignore the danger of the basilisk. Or maybe it was because of his lucky success last year that made him blindly confident.

Douglas scoffed and asked:

"I'm curious, why do you think you can deal with the basilisk, or even Voldemort... Is it because you've learned some advanced magic in private that you think you're so great?"

When Harry heard this, he immediately looked at Hermione. Hermione quickly shook her head and said angrily:

"Harry, I haven't told the professor anything. Didn't you promise me that you wouldn't deal with the basilisk before completing the schedule? Why are you..."

Harry was at a loss for what to do when he saw the angry Hermione, and he quickly apologized in a low voice.

Douglas snorted coldly:

"Do you know you're wrong now?

The things you are worried about should be considered by the professors, and we don’t need to report our plans to you.

What are you? You are students. The most important task of a student is to study, do you understand?

Every day Voldemort, Voldemort, what are we professors?

I don’t want to explain any more to you. Just figure out what you did wrong.

Look at your results this time..."

At this point, Douglas used the Flying Spell to summon the two people's papers to his own hands, but when he took a look, he was stunned. They actually did quite well in the exam, one with 95 points and the other with 92 points.

Although these are only the written test scores, both of them performed very well in the practical course exams, so overall, they are both excellent.

Ron and Harry looked at Douglas curiously, who had suddenly stopped talking, wondering what had happened to his grades and why he had stopped talking.

When Hermione found out their scores while grading the papers, she felt a little embarrassed for Douglas.

Unexpectedly, Douglas put down the test paper and changed the subject:

"With just a little bit of achievement, you're already so proud and complacent, thinking you can do anything. Did you forget the self-criticism I asked you to write at the beginning of the semester?

You don’t think you can repeat the feat you achieved at the end of last semester, do you? What are you looking at? Do you think that’s something to be proud of? Don’t trust the professor, huh…”

Harry felt a little dizzy after hearing what Douglas said, especially since Douglas kept staring at him after he finished speaking.

Douglas did not use the Legilimency spell. He just couldn't understand why in the original book, they went to deal with the basilisk because Ginny was captured and they mistakenly believed that Lockhart and Dumbledore were not in school.

But now none of this mess has happened, and Harry still chooses to go to the Chamber of Secrets. Why...

He thought carefully about their performance in class this year.

To sum up, both Harry and Ron are becoming more and more confident in his class...

Is it caused by overconfidence, or is it that the rebellious period has arrived early?
