Hogwarts Reading Days

"This way!"

As soon as Albert stepped into the hall, he saw George standing up from his seat and waving to Albert to indicate that he was here. After Albert sat down in the vacant seat specially reserved by the three of them, Lee Jordan, who was talking to others, turned his head and asked, "What are you talking about with Professor Flitwick? Why have you been here for so long?"

At this moment, a girl from a lower grade hurried over here, lowered her head and handed a note to Albert, saying, "Professor Snape asked me to pass this note to Mr. Anderson." .”

"Thank you." Albert took the note and thanked the other party with a smile.

"You're welcome."

As soon as the girl's eyes met Albert's, she immediately blushed and lowered her head in shame, stammered back "You're welcome", and stumbled away.

"You are still as welcome as ever."

"If you are envious, go find a girlfriend." Albert glanced at the trio with a smirk on his face, and said flatly, "When you have a girlfriend, you won't be envious of such a thing." gone."

"Ahem, don't tell me that Snape also wants to have afternoon tea with you." George coughed lightly and joked with a smile.

This kind of thing is almost impossible to happen. One day Snape really invites someone to drink tea, maybe the mysterious man will jump out of the cemetery the next day.

Albert unfolded the note, read the contents quickly, and opened his mouth slightly in surprise.

"what happened?"

Seeing Albert's surprised reaction, several people moved their heads to see what was written on the note in Albert's hand.

"Look for yourselves!" Albert had a slightly weird expression, and handed the note to George.

George took the note and spread it out to share with Fred next to him, and Lee Jordan leaned over to read it with the two of them.

Afterwards, the three of them couldn't help but widen their eyes, showing expressions of disbelief.

"I've never heard Snape give tutoring," Fred muttered.

"That's not the point. The point is that Albert still needs to make up lessons. What the hell." George also didn't understand what Snape's letter meant, and only felt that the contents of the note were absurd.

"Are you sure that someone is not deliberately playing a prank?" Lee Jordan also felt that this incident was fake, more like someone was deliberately playing a prank.

Albert did understand the content of the letter, but he also felt that this matter was a hell, why didn't he expect that Dumbledore would actually ask Snape to teach him fighting skills?

Unfortunately, he didn't believe in fake Moody, and he didn't want to have too much contact with Snape.

What's more, Albert had already persuaded Professor Flitwick to teach him fighting skills just now, so why go to Snape to get angry?

Although he didn't intend to go, he still had to write back to Snape, tactfully refuse, and explain the reason to show his respect for the professors.

"It's not a prank."

Albert briefly told a few good friends that he went to Dumbledore, hoping that the headmaster could teach him fighting skills.

"I think it would be more appropriate for Headmaster Dumbledore to ask Professor Moody to teach you combat skills. That Auror is a very good Auror." Fred felt that this matter was nonsense, and asked the Headmaster of Slytherin to Teaching a Gryffindor student is all about finding fault.

"I told Principal Dumbledore that I don't believe in Moody." Albert made no secret of his distrust of Moody, "And, in fact, I hope that Professor Dumbledore can teach me fighting skills in person, you know, He's experienced in that."

"Dumbledore asked you to find someone else?" Lee Jordan asked suspiciously.

"God knows what Mr. Principal thinks, anyway, I've already talked to Professor Flitwick just now." Albert shrugged.

In fact, even if they didn't talk about it just now, they still had to talk about it. Anyway, Albert didn't intend to learn fighting skills from Snape at all.

"Oh, you really despise us." Fred pretended to be very sad.

"Eat your food." Albert glanced at Fred who turned into a showman in distaste, shook his head and said, "Now it's best to find an experienced wizard to teach us fighting skills. Of course, you are now learning There's no harm in having a bit of Auror knowledge, but it's actually useless to me."

"What level do you think we are now?" Fred and George exchanged glances and asked.

"Should be able to barely be an intern Auror." Albert said without thinking.

In fact, Albert doesn't know the level of Aurors in the Ministry of Magic, but he is confident that he can take down one or two Aurors head-on, because they won't throw the Unforgivable Curse. In many cases, a system like the Ministry of Magic Personnel are not dangerous, they won't cross the bottom line easily, and they won't pop up out of nowhere to give you Avada Kedavra.

After eating, Albert began to write letters.

A letter to Snape, declining his "invitation" to make up lessons, bluntly expressing that Professor Flitwick is willing to teach him fighting skills.

As for the other letter, it was written to Sirius Black, reminding him that the third project was very dangerous, and secretly hinting that Sirius should take the time to teach Harry how to fight and protect himself. Learn about magic.

The two letters were quickly sent by Albert.

During the period, I also encountered some troubles. The owls who delivered the letter were a little reluctant to go out, because March was cold and windy, and it was not a good weather to go out to deliver letters. Maybe they would be blown away by the cold wind after going out.

Therefore, Albert decisively arranged the easiest job for Shera. As for the letter to Sirius, Albert picked the strongest owl and comforted it for a long time before letting the owl obediently deliver the letter to him.

Snape, who received the letter that night, after reading Albert's reply, had a distorted expression on his face. He never expected that Dumbledore would teach Albert fighting skills, but he was turned down by the other party with an excuse. Snape had nothing to say.

After reading the letter, Snape sneered, threw the note into the fireplace and burned it.

Professor Flitwick promised to teach Albert fighting skills?

Whether it was true or not was none of Snape's business.

But, for some reason, Snape became more and more angry.

Ok.

He always felt that he was cheated by Dumbledore.

The current situation looks like Albert Anderson went to learn combat skills from Dumbledore, but Dumbledore obviously did not agree to teach him personally, and planned to let himself teach the other party combat skills.

The two sides didn't make things clear, or Dumbledore didn't make things clear. As a result, Anderson was not an ordinary person, so he resolutely gave up on Dumbledore and found a new teacher for himself.

As a result, he wrote to the other party so stupidly. Thinking of this incident, Snape was very annoyed. Finally, he felt that he couldn't feel uncomfortable, so he went to Dumbledore to share the good news with the other party.

Dumbledore was also a little helpless after receiving the news. He didn't expect that Albert's efficiency was so high that he found a teacher who was willing to teach combat skills so quickly.

Professor Flitwick would undoubtedly be a good fit, he's also a former dueling champion, and he's a professor too, so he's definitely up to the task.

It's just that Moody and Snape are obviously more suitable for dealing with dark wizards.

After getting the news from Snape, Dumbledore also realized that Albert never expected himself to be able to teach the other party combat skills from the very beginning, and the other party came to him just to try his luck, and even the backup candidates had already been selected Well, maybe Professor Flitwick is not the only candidate.

To be honest, Dumbledore regretted that he didn't make things clear at the time. Just like Phineas said, Albert was indeed a very good friend, and he even considered the possibility of drawing him into the Order of the Phoenix, but Deng Where did Bullido think that after Albert received the signal that he didn't intend to teach him, he would instinctively slip away, and he walked away so cleanly that even the suitable candidates that Dumbledore originally planned to recommend to Albert were all gone. Almost didn't say it.

What Dumbledore didn't expect was that Professor Moody, who he thought was the most suitable to teach Albert, got a disbelief from Albert in the end.

"Don't believe in Alastor, is this an excuse, or... really don't believe it?"

After careful consideration, Dumbledore felt that the latter was more likely. People like Albert should be more willing to trust their own judgment, so Alastor has always been a suspicious guy in the eyes of the other party?

However, what was suspicious? Did I overlook something?

Dumbledore and Moody had known each other for half a century, and hadn't found anything suspicious about the other party.

Is it a prophecy?

No, if the prophecy really testified against Alastor, he should tell himself about it.

Looking at Dumbledore who was in a tangle, when Snape turned to leave, he suddenly felt that his bad mood seemed to have improved.

……

……

At noon the next day, Sirius finally received a letter from Albert.

When he learned that Dumbledore was likely to ask Harry to learn fighting skills from Snape, Sirius was immediately very annoyed.

Well, of course Albert didn't tell Sirius so bluntly, he just hinted that he had received a "remedial" note from Snape, pointing out the fact that he had a hunch that the third project was dangerous.The meaning is obvious, anyway, Sirius must be able to see what Albert wants him to understand.

As Albert expected, Sirius' first thought after seeing this letter was: How can Harry learn from the slug? What if he is bullied by the slug?

I'm not dead yet!

Moreover, Sirius had also heard about Harry's glorious deeds in recent years, and he was even more fond of causing trouble than James.

Moreover, the things they encountered were all thrilling scenes: for example, in the first grade, in order to protect the Sorcerer's Stone, they confronted the demons of Volt head-on.In the second grade, I ran to the secret room and killed a basilisk.In the third grade, Harry also met himself as a prisoner and Peter as a traitor, and in the end Lupine turned into a werewolf. If it wasn't for Albert's presence, God knows how it would have ended.

Who knows what will happen this year?

Albert mentioned in his letter that the third project of the Triwizard Tournament is very dangerous, and God knows what it will be.

Even a guy as powerful as Albert felt life-threatening, and something must happen, and this incident was probably aimed at Harry.

If possible, Sirius really wanted Harry to voluntarily give up participating in the Triwizard Tournament, but due to the contract, Harry could not give up the game, so what Sirius can do now is to let Harry do "safety" Ready to go to the "battlefield" again, their goal is not to be the champion, but to wait until the end of the game alive, so things are easier than expected.

In addition, Sirius felt that it was necessary to write to Dumbledore to remind them to strengthen the security measures of the third project so that Harry could be rescued in a short time.

If it was in the past, Sirius would definitely not believe Albert's words, thinking that most fortune tellers are liars, but after being woken up by Albert with the truth one after another, Sirius would rather believe it now, and he doesn't think Albert Burt had to lie to him, it was too boring to do that.

"Remus, I have something to discuss with you." Sirius called to Lupine who was preparing food for the owl in the kitchen.He thinks it's best to discuss this with Lupine. Lupine has been a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, and he is obviously better at teaching people than him. It is undoubtedly more reliable for the two of them to teach Harry fighting skills together than him alone. .

For Harry, Sirius unknowingly became reliable. After all, Harry himself was unreliable, and if he, the godfather, was also unreliable, it would be even more unreliable.

After Sirius helped the owl smooth the feathers that were blown to and fro by the wind, he let it return to Hogwarts with the letter.

After Harry received the letter from Sirius, he was very happy that Sirius actually planned to come and teach him magic.

However, Harry was a little puzzled. Sirius seemed to be worried that he would be in danger in the third event of the Triwizard Tournament?

"It's not accidental that your name appeared in the Goblet of Fire. So far there have been no accidents. If anyone really wants to do something, this is their last chance." Hermione frowned after reading the letter from Sirius Said, "Just, why is Sirius so sure that there will be an accident in the third project?"

"Don't you think it's so cool?" Ron said excitedly: "Can we go with you then, I think Sirius is right, you should be trained, and you can't go to the third party unprepared." Even if this project is not for the championship, at least it can protect itself."

"Hermione, do you want to go with me then?" Harry looked at Hermione.

"Of course, together when the time comes." Hermione nodded, she always felt that this matter was a bit abnormal, especially the letter from Sirius, he seemed to believe that Harry would definitely be attacked.

Compared with Harry, Dumbledore was a little confused when he received the letter from Sirius, because Sirius wrote that he and Lupine planned to come to Hogwarts on weekends, hoping to train Harry in the Forbidden Forest. Harry so that Harry can get through the third project.Sirius also secretly hinted to Dumbledore that there was no need to prepare additional professors for Harry.
