I was expelled from Hogwarts?

Dumbledore stood alone in the room, he opened the trap, raised his wand, a slightly swaying fireball popped out from the tip of the wand, and fell down.

Soon, the fire light illuminated the bottom, and the old man squinted his eyes. He found that not only Hagrid's Lu Wei was lost, but even the devil's net was missing a lot.

There were hurried footsteps behind him, Dumbledore did not turn around, and said softly: Professor McGonagall, have you sent Potter and Weasley back to the Gryffindor lounge?

Yes, both of them have been begging me all the way, don't deduct points from Gryffindor. Professor McGonagall who arrived in the restricted area was very angry: Since you are so afraid of deducting points, why do you want to go out for a night tour?!

Dumbledore closed the trap, and he explained, Actually, Malfoy invited Potter to a duel tonight.

Hearing that Harry and Ron didn't come out for a night tour just to wreak havoc on the prize room, Professor McGonagall's anger eased a little.

But Miss Granger reminded Potter and Weasley that it was a hoax, but they didn't believe it. Dumbledore added.

Professor McGonagall's blood pressure rose back again, she pursed her lips and said:

That's even more unforgivable. Stupidity and stubbornness are not synonymous with Gryffindor!

You didn't see the teasing expression on Professor Snape's face when he found me, I didn't dare to look into his eyes. Professor McGonagall said angrily:

The last time I was so humiliated was when the Gryffindor Quidditch team defeated Slytherin last semester. I didn't dare to say hello to Snape for a few weeks...

Dumbledore twitched his lips when he heard this, and said helplessly, Professor Snape's frankness does sometimes make people blush. I have reminded him many times.

Frank?! Professor McGonagall seemed to have heard the unbelievable description, and she snorted coldly: Professor Dumbledore, has anyone told you?

What?

You have a characteristic that you can always describe other people's shortcomings as... strengths.

Oh, really? Strange, this is the first time I've heard such an evaluation. Dumbledore raised his eyebrows, as if he was very surprised: Minerva, I thought you were praising me.

Then I must have misworded it, which caused you to misunderstand. Mag raised the corner of his mouth and said, I apologize to you.

It's okay. Dumbledore smiled gently, Minerva, I didn't expect you to be as frank as Professor Snape.

...

The old man smiled and said: You don't have to be too harsh on Harry and Ron. It's normal for young people to make mistakes. They are impulsive and ignorant. Communicate with them more, and don't let the students be too afraid of you.

Afraid? Why are they afraid of me? Professor McGonagall was a little surprised, she frowned habitually: I have always been kind.

Dumbledore glanced at Professor McGonagall with small eyes.

She blushed a little, and whispered: Most of the time.

Professor McGonagall took the initiative to change the subject, she looked around and said, Where is Hagrid's three-headed dog, is it called Luffy?

Lu Wei. Professor Dumbledore blinked and said succinctly: I lost it and was taken away.

Ah, lost it? Professor McGonagall was so surprised that she couldn't speak, her glasses flashed with shock, and said in disbelief:

That three-headed dog is not so easy for me to deal with. How could it be lost so silently?

There was not even a trace of a fight in the room, and the ferocious three-headed dog could be taken away so easily... What kind of powerful wizard must this be? !

Is it the wizard you've been wary of lately?! she guessed.

No, Professor McGonagall, it's the little wizard, a first-year student. Dumbledore shook his head and said softly, The portraits of the castle told me.

The only question is, how did they take Lu Wei away without a sound?

Dumbledore stood a few steps forward slowly, squinted his eyes, and bent over to examine the ground. He saw a few drops of solidified traces at the door.

The trace was almost invisible, and even the color was dimly consistent with the ground. He stretched out his fingertips to touch the solidified powder, sniffed it, and said instantly: I think I already know.

What?

Shrinking potion is an effective and smart way to deal with large magical animals. Dumbledore praised.

Scamander couldn't have done it, could he? Professor McGonagall thought for a while before locking on the suspect.

Why do you think it's him?

A little wizard in the first grade, and he also has a special interest in cats... Keke animals! Professor McGonagall said after holding back for a long time: As far as I have observed recently, Scamander has always been very bold!!

Actually, not only Rove, but also three students are going on a night tour with him tonight, Dumbledore said.

Will there still be Swinton and Miss Granger? Professor McGonagall frowned, They always get together.

And Mr. Longbottom, Dumbledore added.

After being confirmed, Professor McGonagall's complexion changed again and again, as if the Chinese cabbage he had planted so hard was about to be crushed by the Tebo warthog in the Forbidden Forest.

Both Shirley and Hermione are my favorite students. Hermione is very similar to me when I was young. Shirley has an excellent talent for transfiguration...

Same as Tonks? Dumbledore narrowed his eyes.

It's more attentive than Tonks! Professor McGonagall said with satisfaction.

Don't worry, Rove won't bring them down. Good students can always promote each other and work towards a better direction together. Dumbledore seemed to have confidence in the young man, he said softly:

Of course, I will also remind Rove to get Lu Wei back by the way, and he has to continue guarding here.

Speaking of the three-headed dog Lu Wei, Professor McGonagall hesitated for a moment, and persuaded:

Professor Dumbledore, even a first-year wizard can easily solve Lu Wei, and other levels are not too difficult. Is it too hasty to put the Philosopher's Stone below?

Minerva, I thank you for using the word 'sloppy'. Dumbledore said with a smile, I thought you would be as frank as Professor Snape, and directly call me an idiot.

Of course you are not an idiot, you are the greatest wizard in the world. Professor McGonagall said a little excitedly:

Everything you do must have its own deep meaning. I am willing to believe in you, just like believing that the sun will rise from the east.

Moreover, there are a group of wizards who trust you as much as I do.

Dumbledore seemed very moved. He turned his back, gently wiped his eyes behind the lens with a lace handkerchief, and said softly:

I just hope I don't betray your trust.
