v2 Chapter 457： Principal's private tutoring

One evening a few days after Christmas, Harry Potter and the two Weasley children huddled in the kitchen of the Burrow.

The space in the kitchen is very small and very crowded. Near the inside is a dusty fireplace...and beside the fireplace is a clean wooden table and a few chairs. They sit here. A few chairs.

Several people are wearing hand-knitted sweaters of the same style. Among them, Harry’s chest shows a shiny golden snitch. These are knitted by Mrs. Weasley... Despite such a change a few days ago, Wei Mrs. Slay still did not forget her Christmas present.

"I really miss life in Grimmauld Place, it's at least very spacious..." Ron Weasley muttered, looking a little unhappy, "Now the house is really packed like canned sardines..."

Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley looked at each other, and both smiled helplessly.

Because it is true!

Since the terrible attack on Grimmauld Place 12 a few days ago, the Weasley’s Burrow has become the temporary headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix...

This "crooked and crooked" small building may be the first time it needs to receive so many guests at the same time... Just as Ron said, it is as crowded as canned sardines now!

Outside the kitchen, in the restaurant, you can still hear the roar of Alastor Moody; since the attack on Grimmauld Place, the mad-eyed man has become extremely grumpy; Remus Lupin and Sirius -Blake seemed to comfort him over there. On the ceiling, in addition to the sound of the ghoul knocking on the pipe, a few small groans can be heard; the wounded in the attack were also heard. Was transferred here to prevent suspicion from the outside world.

Ron Weasley’s original bedroom was “expropriated” in this way, and he now had to live in the dark cupboard under the stairs.

Harry Potter's situation is not much better, although Mrs. Weasley cleaned a room specially for him... the innermost room of the basement, which was filled with all kinds of messy things, the whole room There was a smell of mold; Harry even found the textbooks that Mrs. Weasley used when he was young, the suits Mr. Weasley wore when he was married, and the relics left by Mrs. Weasley’s two brothers. ...

"You said why did we come back here!" Ron said with a sigh.

"It's not that my mother is worried about us!" Ginny replied, "Hogwarts was almost attacked. She felt that the campus was no longer safe..."

"And there are at least ten members of the Order of the Phoenix here at any time, so it seems safer? But if someone really wants to attack us, this must be the first target!" I'm about to cry. "Well, you just need to squeeze in the same room with Tonks... and me... in that **** cupboard... I found a very big spider last night... "

At this moment, a short and excited looking owl came in from the fireplace, its body covered with dust.

At the same time, there was a harsh cry in its mouth.

"Little pig?" Ginny ran over quickly, grabbed the small owl from the ground and patted the dust on it. "It seems to have brought a few letters from the school... this

The seal is your Ron; Harry, you have two..."

"Oh?" Ron and Harry leaned in hastily.

...

The first letter received by the two is the same, the content is very simple

"The Apparition Class

If you are over seventeen years old, or over seventeen years old before August 31, you can participate in the twelve-week apparition course guided by the Ministry of Magic Apparition Instructor Professor Waikie Tecross .

Those who are willing to participate, please sign below and submit this letter to the dean of the college by January 10.

The tuition fee is 12 gallons. "

"This-Apparition!" Ron's tone sounded obviously agitated. "It should be fun!"

"I don't know." Harry shook his head. "Professor Dumbledore took me to do it once before, but it felt terrible..."

"I forgot you did it, Harry... I better pass it once!" Ron whispered suddenly, looking a little worried. "Fred and George passed at once, otherwise they would definitely laugh at me. A summer vacation..."

"The Apparition Class!" Ginny said with some disdain, and at the same time leaned over to Harry to read the contents of the letter "Who is this Professor Waikie-Tecross?"

"Probably a teacher from the Magic Education Department of the Ministry of Magic." Harry guessed. "It looks like the school needs another professor!"

"Professor..." Ginny suddenly remembered something like "I heard Tonks say yesterday...Professor Slughorn was sent to the St. Mungo Hospital for Magical Injuriesthis The news didn't arouse much attention from Harry and Ron. After all, they saw the Potions teacher knocked to the ground by the dark wizard of Durmstrand that day.

"You haven't realized... what does this mean!" Ginny said kindly and amusingly. "Professor Slughorn must be recuperating in St. Mungo for some time... Then, during this time, Hogwar The position of Ci’s potions teacher is about to be vacant!"

When Ginny said this, Harry and Ron's faces changed suddenly.

Especially Harry, his gaze shifted hurriedly to the half-blood prince's potions textbook (which he carries with him at all times).

If the position of potions teacher is vacant in the middle of the semester, Professor Dumbledore will naturally not have time to find a new teacher. He can only ask another teacher to come as a substitute for the lesson... Just like Lupin in third grade When sick (actually when the day of the full moon became a werewolf), the Defense Against the Dark Arts class was temporarily replaced by Snape.

So this time, the teacher who substitutes for the potions class will still...

Harry suddenly had a cold war. If Snape was asked to teach himself another potion lesson, then he would definitely discover his secret...

...

"Harry, you still have a letter!" Ginny urged softly from the side, making Harry wake up like a dream.

Harry quickly opened the second "letter" Owl Piggy brought him... more prepared, it was a piece of paper--

"Dear Harry

I plan to give you individual lessons starting from the next semester. Please come to my office at eight o'clock next Sunday evening.

In addition, I wish you a very happy Christmas holiday.

Your faithful

Albus Dumbledore

And I like sour soda. "
