The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

v3 Chapter 166: I don't have much homework left?

What were Tom and Hermione doing while Huck and Dumbledore were chatting? Instead of walking into the principal's office to listen to their conversation, they finished writing the papers on the history of magic and potions!

That's right, when Dumbledore and Huck walked into the office together, Tom and Hermione went straight to the library.

Dumbledore's conversation with Huck? Sorry, they don't have much curiosity. Because these two people can't negotiate any substantive cooperation, as long as the "Secret Law" is still in effect, then what they talk about is just talking shit.

Dumbledore also understands this very well, so he didn't mention the cooperation between the magical world and the non-magical world, but was simply chatting and narrowing the distance between the two sides. In Dumbledore's view, it was the best choice under the current circumstances to first get closer to the Muggle Prime Minister.

Huck took the initiative, trying to steer the conversation towards agriculture and medicine. During his brief contact, he found that the combat power of the magic world could not be seen for a while, but their life magic really formed a crush on Muggles: Apparition, Flying Spell, Cleansing Spell, Repairing Spell ...

These spells are very useful.

In addition to these "life hacks", the magic world's agricultural and medical industries are far ahead of the non-magical world. As a minister who understands agriculture, Huck understands too well the impact on agriculture after using high-yield seeds and fertilizers.

Huck even came to the conclusion that if the agricultural farming method in the magical world can be extended to the whole of Great Britain, he dares to raise the social welfare to free meat, eggs, milk, vegetables, fruits, and staple food. If the magical world's medical methods can be promoted, it will not be a problem to increase the average life expectancy by ten years.

Unfortunately, he hinted several times that Dumbledore didn't follow suit.

Huck's summary of the meeting was that it was a friendly but useless meeting, but it was a good eye-opener for himself.

As for lunch, he didn't have high expectations. Because he learned from Headmaster Dumbledore that most of the students at Hogwarts went home for Christmas, so the food in the cafeteria would probably shrink, right?

More importantly, Hogwarts is still a British magic school, so what virtues does British cuisine have? How can he, a native of London, know about it?

Today, the layout of the Hogwarts hall has changed. The long tables of the original four colleges have been moved to the wall, and replaced by a table for twelve people, which is placed in the center of the hall. When Dumbledore and Huck arrived, McGonagall, Snape, Sprout, and Flitwick were all seated, as were the gatekeepers Filch and Newt Scamander. Instead of the brown coat he always wore, Filch put on a tattered, old-fashioned tuxedo. Newt was wearing his navy blue coat as usual, but to get in the Christmas spirit, he wore a Santa hat on his head. Apart from that, there were not even a single student.

"Merry Christmas!" Dumbledore greeted those present, and then said to Huck, who was beside him, "There are not many of us, and the students are all home, so it is a bit silly to use the long college table. Come on, sit down, sit down!"

He took Huck and found two empty seats to sit down. Dumbledore glanced at the people seated and found that there were a few familiar figures missing.

"Minerva, have you met Yodel, Granger and the others?"

Professor McGonagall's face was a little weird, "When we separated before, Yodel said he was going to the library to write a paper..."

Everyone here:  …

Huck asked cautiously on the side, "Is there so much pressure to study in the magic world?"

"No, no," Dumbledore waved his hands again and again, looking at McGonagall.

"I only assigned a little homework, a few papers and the like..." Professor McGonagall defended herself.

"Oh, yes--"

"I also only assigned a little homework."

Professors Flitwick and Sprout also followed, saying they also had a small amount of homework left behind.

Now the pressure was on Snape's side. Seeing everyone else staring at him, Snape snorted coldly, "Perhaps Miss Granger and Mr. Yodell took too many courses. I heard they took all the courses on the course selection table. "

The professors suddenly realized: It's not our problem! Let me just say, the amount of homework I left is very reasonable, Tom and Hermione are too greedy!

Tom and Hermione were still in the library at this time.

They thought the school library would not be open during the Christmas holidays, but they did. Mrs. Pince, still icy, said "Merry Christmas" to them and disappeared.

Tom and Hermione had long been accustomed to her attitude of keeping strangers away. They took some information books on their own, then found a corner to sit down and complete the thesis.

This perfection is more than two hours. It is impossible to write two papers in more than two hours - even halving this number is an impossible task. However, their papers on the history of magic and potions are coming to an end, and they only need to polish it up, which won't take much time.

So, by the time lunch time came, the two men's thesis was completely finished.

"Tom, do we want to hand in the paper ahead of time?" Hermione rolled the parchment into a roll and put it in her bag.

"Don't make trouble for yourself. In this case, if the professors call back the paper for you to revise, will you revise it or not?"

Homework is the most taboo thing to not follow the crowd. The moment you hand in your homework alone, the probability that your homework will be seriously reviewed by the teacher will be greatly increased. A series of unpredictable worldlines will then be triggered.

Hermione thought for a moment, "But if it is returned and redone, doesn't it just mean that there is a problem with our homework?"

Tom pondered for a moment~lightnovelpub.net~ and found that he couldn't refute it.

"You're right, but it's tiring to rewrite two articles."

Now it was Hermione's turn to be speechless.

"Go to the auditorium first and see if Professor Dumbledore and Mr. Harker have finished talking. If all goes well, we can go home in the afternoon."

"Actually, I really want to stay here. The food here is much more plentiful than at home, and the environment in the library is even better..."

While talking, the two packed up their things. At this moment, they heard a noise from behind the next bookshelf.

Hermione was drawn to the voice. She walked to the back of the bookshelf and saw that it was Hagrid. At this moment, the giant man was hiding behind the bookshelf with a stack of books in his arms, wiping his tears.
