Chapter 335 Farewell
“Here is, ah, this face, a little bit impressive, not as good-looking as Professor Black.”
Professor Binns looked at Professor Nina carefully after making an evaluation of it. He looked at Andrew and made a comment.
‘I thank you for looking up to me, Professor. '
Andrew didn't want to say anything - he was at a disadvantage compared to Professor Lockhart, let alone Sirius, who was currently the most handsome and capable player in the school.
"This is classmate Taylor."
Sirius added carefully - he was the person who communicated with Professor Binns the most in the past year.
"Tyler? Ah, yes, that guy who slept in History of Magic class."
Don't mention this now, professor?
The scene was even a little awkward for a moment, but fortunately a head flew over to break the deadlock - followed by a bunch of ghosts who were regular visitors to Hogwarts and ghosts who occasionally came to visit.
After all, Hogwarts is the cradle of wizards - the vast majority of ghosts have attended classes here, are imprinted with traces of the meaning of magic, and can visit after death.
"Professor Binns!"
The ghost who squeezed over didn't even see Professor McGonagall, "Are you being squeezed out?"
Andrew noticed that the professor's expression was a little strange Stiff - but he wisely chose to ignore it.
"Just going on a vacation, are you?"
"I am, by the way, I am a student from about three hundred years ago."
The ghost who squeezed over thought for a moment, and then saw Professor McGonagall - I don't know if it was an illusion, but Andrew thought it was pearls The luster has weakened a bit.
“I am a student five hundred years ago!”
“…eight hundred…”
…
Andrew just felt a headache listening to the long list of numbers - he thought he was very sensible twenty minutes ago, but the boomerang hit too fast.
"I'm just going on vacation for a few years. If necessary, I will visit you. It's too messy to look at."
"I'm sorry, Professor, it's mainly about Hogwarts today. School has started, let’s come over to join in the fun..."
"If you have this time, why don’t you tell me what strange and important things have happened in recent years."
…
There was chattering again, but this time it was much more orderly, at least the ghosts came one by one.
'Just hearing about these places, I have the urge to take risks...'
Of course there are places worth taking risks in strange places for ghosts, but I moved a little bit. Thinking about it, Andrew knew that it was completely impossible for him - he had to study!
"There is also a Muggle place, Bermuda - yes, this is it. Wizards have gradually begun to go over to deal with the messy magical relics in that place!"
Professor Nina obviously listened. was very happy, and even provided a place that sounded like an adventure during the ghosts' brief rest.
But what was returned was a period of silence.
The ghosts looked at me and I looked at you, they all stopped and stared at Nina.
She immediately realized her mistake - ghosts could only go to the places they had been before in life, because those places had traces of magic.
As an anti-dark magic professor, she should have been aware of it - but studying on the fly made her less proficient.
“I’m sorry.”
"It's just an accident, it's okay, madam, the living and the dead are never the same. There is no way to solve this problem. It is a question without an answer - just like you and your friends can't attend each other's funerals."
But, if it is a ghost...
Andrew habitually thought of the answer, and then understood what the professor meant - when you understand, you are no longer a living person. "Okay, I've said enough about the secrets of death, and enough people have come. If I don't go to Diagon Alley for a stroll, I'm afraid it will be dawn."
Professor Binns shook his head. He nodded, as if he didn't care, "I have to go, I will write if something happens, Professor McGonagall - by the way, classmate Taylor over there, thank you for your preparation."
The old professor waved Waving his hand, "I'll go out and pay attention. If there's anything worth venturing to, I'll invite you during the summer - isn't this your favorite Gryffindor?"
"That's it, see you next time!"
Professor Binns nodded, and the figure carrying the bag flew out of the room and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The messy ghosts followed and quickly disappeared, leaving only Nick, who was almost headless - he gave a thumbs up to Andrew, then waved and said something to Professor McGonagall He said goodbye and gave chase.
‘Are you Gryffindor? '
Andrew was stunned for a moment - he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of his dawdling in the history of magic.
But not much, the professor even remembered the college wrong, how could he take the blame entirely on himself!
“Leave as soon as you say it, Professor Binns’ temper is so bad.”
Professor McGonagall shook his head, “Andrew, seal up Professor Binns’ room.”
"Yes, Professor."
Andrew agreed and began to cast spells - after sealing, unless the professor comes back by himself, anyone who wants to open it will have to go through complicated procedures.
Even Peeves could not enter the house guarded by the castle's protective magic. From this point of view, Andrew determined that there was definitely an unsolved secret in Peeves.
"Let's leave too," Professor McGonagall nodded lightly, "There are still classes tomorrow, it's time to rest early."
After Andrew completed the internal casting and came out, McGonagall The professor gently tapped the door of the room - under the watchful eyes of two ordinary professors, a dean and a student cast a spell, and the conditions for sealing magic were established. From today on, this room will be inactive until Professor Binns returns. Or be removed from the list.
"Let's go, it's getting late."
Professor McGonagall left first - the young professor may not be so obedient, and her pressure is not only for the students.
"Huh..."
Professor Nina breathed a sigh of relief, "I almost made a serious mistake."
"Professor Binns knows," Andrew shook his head, "It doesn't matter, the newcomer will know it." Forgiven.”
“I wish, let’s go back too.”
…
The three of them wanted to go back to different places, so they separated after walking a short distance.
When Andrew climbed the stairs and returned to the lounge, there was no one at the door of the lounge - no doubt all the freshmen had gone back.
‘Start answering the questions. ’
He smiled and was about to open the door, but a figure appeared on the other side.
“I’ve been looking at the stars for a long time. I’m afraid I’m going to be number one in astronomy this semester.”
Hal had a look of curiosity and fatigue on his face.
"Speaking of which, I have been hiding outside for at least two hours. Taylor, just for this reason, can you give me some information on some issues that do not involve your office!"
"I'm overthinking it, no."
Andrew shook his head quickly, then took out a note from his pocket and read out the answer.
“Please, I will be the first one to open the door in the morning - even if I don’t solve it, I will still use an owl to ask people.”
He looked at Hal with no mercy at all.
