Just a Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor

v1 Chapter 294: Alien in Pixie

But the more advanced you know, the better it is not necessarily a good thing.

Once people's thoughts get into the horns, it is easy to make mistakes. The most evil villains in the story are actually aspiring young people with ideals and aspirations.

Sherlock is looking forward to Hermione becoming mature and becoming an intellectual pioneer who can benefit the British wizarding world in the future, but very much does not want this seedling to grow crooked and become a character like the so-called Dark Lord.

Of course, history wins and loses, and it is the right of the winner to discredit the loser.

If Grindelwald had won the final victory, the Dark Lord who hindered the progress of history might have become Dumbledore, and the title of the greatest white wizard of the twentieth century might have passed to him.

But no matter from that angle, it was not what Sherlock expected.

"How to eliminate inequality, this is an almost unsolvable question, Hermione, countless great people in history have thought about this question, but they have not come up with an answer."

Sherlock said softly.

"You can spontaneously read these books and think about these questions, which is very good, and proves that you really think about it. But knowledge is like this. The more ignorant people are, the more arrogant they are, and the more they know, the more right they are. The world is full of doubts and dazed humility. It's not your problem, it's for all seekers of knowledge."

"If you read enough books, you can understand the wisdom of your predecessors, stand on the shoulders of those giants, and look at the current problems, but you also need to be clear about how these ideas left by these people came from."

"Practice gives true knowledge, just read books, you will always stay in the framework of others. If you have more and more questions and become more and more confused about what you are thinking, then go and see for yourself."

"Take a look at the problem you want to solve, and look at other ideas. Don't blindly instill your ideas into others. You must first understand what they think."

Hermione's eyes were filled with determination.

"I've already inquired about the location of the kitchen, professor, and I'll get to know those house elves with my own eyes."

Sherlock picked up his cup of black tea and took a sip.

"One more thing, I hope you can always remember that no matter what ideas you have come into contact with and how your perception of the world has changed, you must not forget your original intention, which is to make everyone a better place. If what you do in the future violates this original intention, then you are no longer you, and I don't want to see Hermione Granger like that in the future."

All he can do now is to put a patch in advance on Hermione's thoughts that haven't been completely released.

Judging from Hermione's serious nodding look, his patch should still be able to play some role.

After the conversation with Sherlock that day, Hermione took Harry and Ron together in the evening to the corridor at the entrance of the Hufflepuff lounge that George and the others said.

"I think it's better that we don't disturb their lives." Harry said hesitantly, trying not to discourage Hermione, and at the same time expressing his appeal.

"I'm not going to rush into the kitchen and persuade them to strike, as you think." Hermione said solemnly, "I know it's not good for them, nor for us."

Ron stared, because he had an argument with Harry some time ago, so he didn't know what had happened to Hermione, and his face was full of surprise now.

"Then why are you taking us to the kitchen?"

"Go and see how the house-elves live and chat with them to find out what they think about unpaid work."

While speaking, Hermione had already walked to the fruit mural, and then gently scratched the pear with her hand as George had taught her.

Lizi giggled, and then suddenly turned into a doorknob and appeared in front of them.

Hermione held down the green doorknob, opened the door, then grabbed Harry's and Ron's arms with both hands, and dragged them both into the kitchen together.

Harry only had time to see that this was a room the size of the auditorium, and when there were about a hundred house-elves working in it, a familiar scream came from far and near.

"Harry Potter! It's Harry Potter!"

Then a small figure flew over, jumped up and hugged Harry tightly.

At this time, Harry also saw the appearance of the house-elf.

"More, Dobby!"

Dobby, excited with big eyes full of tears, looked very happy.

"Dobby has come to work at Hogwarts, sir!" Dobby screamed excitedly, "Professor Dumbledore gave Dobby and Winky work, sir!"

Winky and Dobby are the only two house-elves Harry and the others know.

Dobby was in second grade when he learned of Lucius's conspiracy to prevent Harry from returning to Hogwarts and be in danger. Winky met at the Quidditch World Cup the summer before school started. The Crouchs house elf.

She was mercilessly fired by Crouch for illegally possessing Harry's wand~lightnovelpub.net~.

Unexpectedly, they all came to work at Hogwarts this year.

Dobby took them to find Winky in the kitchen. Winky didn't seem to be having a good time here. As soon as she saw Harry and the others, she burst into tears, as if recalling bad memories.

They were obviously two very different house-elves.

Winky is the most traditional house elf mentality. The master is God, and she was born to work for the master's family for free. Even if she is kicked out now, no one is allowed to speak ill of the Crouch family.

And Dobby is obviously a different kind of elf. When he was at Malfoy's house, he admired Harry, whose legendary deeds were widely circulated.

Even after overhearing that his master was going to disrupt Hogwarts' plans, he acted as the second-fifth boy without hesitation, and wanted to prevent Harry from returning to Hogwarts no matter what.

Later, he became the only elf who advocated freedom. After he came to Hogwarts to work, he asked Dumbledore for wages and rest time.

It's just that although his is an alien, he has been domesticated for more than ten years, and he is full of guilt when he asks for wages and rest time. Originally, Dumbledore wanted to give him a salary of ten Galleons a week. Rejected by Dobby.

He only needs one galleon a week's salary and one day off a month.

It seems that this is not proportional to the value of the labor he provides, but it is already an epoch-making feat among house elves.

It is precisely because of this that the house-elves in the entire Hogwarts kitchen regard him as an alien, and even Winky doesn't like him.
