Chapter 53 The Vice Principal Who Disappeared Quietly
The return of Principal Grindelwald seemed to give the panicked Hogwarts a shot of heart-warming agent.
The panic and panic atmosphere on campus before disappeared in a short time. Instead, it was the sense of order that had always been in Hogwarts.
Professor Grindelwald informed everyone of the cause and effect of the attack; everyone was no longer afraid. Professor Grindelwald told everyone that Hogwarts will be safe in the future, so Hogwarts will definitely not be in any danger again...
All in all, almost overnight, Hogwarts was back on track.
...
And Matthew Wakefield's life has also returned to its former peace.
The students around them were no longer afraid and rarely discussed the attacks.
And his life also returned to the previous life, such as the public lounge, auditorium, classroom and library, and four-point and one-line life.
In addition, he reduced the number of times he went to the House of Responsibles; unless it was a real special situation, he would generally choose to go to the library... Because Professor Slughorn's "warning" that night, he felt that he had to stay away from the book as much as possible.
Even if it is just a "contact" in a room, it is better to have as little as possible.
And, as Principal Grindelwald and they promised, there was indeed no attack again.
The culprit who committed three consecutive attacks, the "blood-sucking" monster... seemed to be directly intimidated by the speech made by Principal Grindelwald in the auditorium at that time, and no longer dared to act rashly.
At first, everyone was still quite scared, but as there was no movement for several consecutive days... the students of Hogwarts also regained their nature.
Principal Greenward did not break his promise, he remained at Hogwarts and had almost never left in recent times.
Matthew was able to see him chatting and laughing with Professor Sprout, Professor Flitvie and Professor Slughorn in the guest room every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
According to some senior students, this kind of thing is actually very rare... Professor Grindelwald was always a busy person in the past few years and rarely stayed in school, except for special moments such as school banquets, Halloween dinners, and Christmas dinners.
Maybe it was affected by the previous attacks.
However, it has to be said that Hogwarts was able to get back on track in a very short time, which is also related to the frequent occurrence of Professor Grindelwald.
...
However, corresponding to President Grindelwald, Vice President Professor Vita Rozier has never appeared.
This is not very consistent with her always-off habits.
It was another Friday afternoon, and the wind was howling outside the castle and the rain was very strong.
It was too dark in the corridor and classroom, so I had to light up some more torches and lanterns.
Matthew habitually held the textbook and bowed his head and walked into the Black Magic Defense Class classroom.
He raised his head, and then slightly surprised-
The teacher on the podium was not Professor Rozier, but the teacher of the Transformation Class and Professor Troca.
"Okay, everyone is almost here!" Professor Troca glanced at the students present and said, "Our course can probably start too."
One hand raised high.
"Is there anything wrong, Miss Granger?" Professor Troca pointed the name of the child who raised his hand.
"Where is Professor Rozier?" Hermione Granger hurriedly stood up and asked hurriedly.
"Professor Rozier is injured. Her course will be temporarily managed by Professor Slughorn, Professor Travers and I. The first-grade course is handed over to me." Professor Troca was not angry, but replied calmly.
Matthew frowned, and he quickly raised his hand.
"Mr. Wakefield?" Professor Troca nodded again.
Matthew also stood up: "Professor Rozier is injured? Is it related to the attacks that Miss Adams and Mr. Carlo encountered?"
While speaking, Professor Rozier limped that night.
"There may be this factor in the specific situation." Professor Troca replied calmly: "I'm sorry, I can't reveal too much..."
"So...when will she come back?" Matthew continued.
"It should take some time, maybe a month, and I can't guarantee it." Professor Troca said.
"Okay, thank you, professor." Matthew sat down again.
Hermione Granger, who was still standing there, said nervously: "Then the course paper that Professor Rozier assigned in the last class that we had to complete within two weeks..."
"You can wait until Professor Rozier comes back before handing it over to her. I don't think I'm responsible for this anyway." Professor Troca said with a smile.
"Great!" A burst of cheers suddenly sounded from the podium.
"Oh, don't." Hermione said with disappointment: "I've finished writing!"
Matthew frowned. He had finished writing the paper, but this was not what he was worried about.
The return of Grindelwald, the vice-principal who quietly disappeared, and the sudden stop of the attack...
Is there any connection between these three?
"Now, we officially start class..." Professor Troca said while flipping through his textbook on the podium: "Please turn your "Black Magic Self-Defense Guide" to page 69..."
They took a very pleasant black magic defense class.
Professor Troca seems to have some research on this aspect, at least more than enough to teach first-year students.
Moreover, the atmosphere in his class was much happier, and Professor Rozier's class was always a bit depressing.
...
The bell rang out, everyone packed their things and walked out of the door, Matthew was among them, but—
"Matthew, wait!" Hermione Granger of Ravenclaw called his name from a distance.
Matthew could vaguely guess what Hermione wanted to say to him. But he didn't want to pay much attention to that matter, nor did he want to discuss that matter.
So he pretended to be in the noisy voice, without hearing it, and walked out of the classroom without looking back.
Miss Granger rushed towards him while colliding with Agnes Lestrange of Slytherin.
"Sorry! Sorry!" she apologized quickly.
But after looking up, Matthew Wakefield was gone.
He was already on his way back to the Slytherin Common Lounge.
