“To be honest, if Dumbledore hadn’t invited me, I wouldn’t have thought about coming, but there are some things here that require me to come.”
Moody said rudely.
He walked into the auditorium with Sherlock. It was already lunch time. Although the students had not arrived yet, the house elves still prepared lunch for the professors who returned to school.
Of course, not all professors would choose to eat lunch in the auditorium, and the old otakus, like Snape, did not come.
Sherlock and Moody sat at the long table together. Several professors who were familiar with him said hello a few times. After the food all appeared on the table out of thin air, Sherlock looked at the person sitting here and asked strangely.
“Have Professor Victor returned to the castle yet?”
Setima Victor, professor of arithmetic divination class, is a witch with a bit stereotyped and proficient in mathematics. Sherlock has a good relationship with her because she is discussing some Muggle math knowledge together in the classroom lounge.
Keridi Bubaji, a professor of Muggle Studies at the dining table who usually has the best relationship with Victor, said regretfully.
“She submitted her resignation report to Dumbledore after the end of last semester, saying that she was tired of staying in the castle and wanted to go out for a walk. Actually, I knew she fell in love with a traveler and the two of them traveled around the world together.”
Astronomy professor Sinista is a dark-skinned witch, she sighed.
“She had told me that 12 was her love number, and she should be her favorite love she met last year’s Christmas holiday.”
Soon they talked about issues like “stars, constellations, love moon”. Sherlock was not interested in these topics and was not involved.
He and Victor were just ordinary friendship, and they didn’t feel sorry or regret for her resignation. After all, they were going to beg for the most love.
But this incident reminded him of Moody’s current identity in Hogwarts.
“Senior Moody came to the castle to replace the professor of arithmetic divination?”
Sherlock hesitated when asked this question, because Moody didn’t look like he could teach the advanced magic course of divination. It was almost the same to let him take his place to teach black magic defense.
Moody waved his hand and shook his head.
“I didn’t take the course of arithmetic divination when I was in school. I had a headache when I saw those numbers. If I really wanted me to be a professor in this course, I wouldn’t agree no matter what Dumbledore said. Dumbledore said that he set up a new position for me, called Castle Guarding, which was specially prepared for the event to be held this year.”
Sherlock could understand this with a simple thoughtWhat is the so-called castle guard post?
Castle Guardian = Hogwarts Security.
Dumbledore specially invited Moody to come to ensure the safety of the campus for the Triple Championship.
Sherlock alone felt a different breath, and it was obvious that Dumbledore knew something.
In the afternoon, the weather outside the castle began to become gloomy, and soon raindrops fell from the sky and dripped on the mottled stone exterior wall.
Sherlock stood in front of the window of her office, holding a cup of black tea in his hand, looking at the rain that was gradually getting heavier outside the window. He was not thinking about anything else, but thinking that Shilk might have arrived at her workplace now.
