Chapter 169 Drop out?
Chapter 169 Drop out?
Because Alice is now the official Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, the school has assigned her a new office.But on the one hand, she got used to it, and on the other hand, it was too troublesome to move the office, so Alice chose to use the original counseling room for dual purposes.
"Professor, we can understand one room for two purposes. Don't you mean psychological counseling? Why did it turn into correcting papers for you?" Fred sat on the sofa and pressed his stiff neck while talking.
George sat beside him in the same posture, and echoed: "And you know, our Defense Against the Dark Arts class is not very good, not at all enough to correct your paper."
The sun shines on her body through the glass, Alice took a sip of black tea leisurely: "Correct me, I didn't ask you to correct the paper for me, I just asked you to put forward ideas and suggestions. deadly enemy, and you are gifted at surprise."
The most proud merit was praised, and Fred said happily: "Well, we must admit that we are indeed superior to ordinary people in some aspects."
"Fred!" George yelled, then turned to Alice and said, "Professor, the weekend is precious. When can we start counseling?"
Putting down the teacup, Alice sat upright: "If you are in a hurry, you can do it now."
George and Fred also put down their quills, looked at each other and asked at the same time, "Professor, you can start now."
"You don't need to be so formal, it's not actually a psychological consultation, I just want to ask you something," Alice was amused by the tacit understanding of the twins, but soon she restrained her smile, "Professor Snape said to me, Your recent treatise on Potions is simply too much for him."
"No!" Fred put his head in his hands and fell on the sofa.
George shook his head and sighed, "I knew it."
"It seems that you still understand your own problems," Alice said after observing the twins' reactions, "Should I be happy that you have done your homework in Defense Against the Dark Arts well?"
"It's mainly because the homework in Defense Against the Dark Arts is more interesting." Fred scratched his head and said honestly.
"Thank you," Alice replied with a sincere smile, "so why don't you study hard?"
"Because we didn't think it was necessary," George said. "We've already saved enough money to open a store. There's no need to waste another year in school."
As she guessed, Alice nodded: "Do you think that what you learn in school is useless?"
"Well, I mean it's useless for our future employment," George said hesitantly, "we've already found a good shop, and if it's too late, all the good places will be taken."
After speaking, George and Fred looked at Alice nervously.If anyone in the world would support their idea of dropping out, it could only be Alice and Headmaster Dumbledore.
"If I were you, I'd probably do the same thing," said Alice, to the twins' surprised gazes. "My original goal was to make money, and make a lot of money. So if I had your talent for mischief and your love of mischief , I might quit school too.”
"But professor, haven't you always been very researched in herbal medicine?" George asked suspiciously.Although there are many Hall shops in the wizarding world and Alice is now a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, all young wizards know that Professor Hall will go to Professor Sprout's greenhouse whenever he has free time.
"Because what I love is not pranks, and the early stage of herbal medicine research is not only not profitable but also a waste of money. So whether it is for further study or for the sustainability of the research, I will not drop out of school," Alice replied, "but Essentially we are still the same, but I chose herbalism and you chose mischief."
Although half-understood, the twins nodded heavily.They heard it, and Alice supported them!
"However, I still don't agree with your behavior. Since you are in school for a day, you should complete the corresponding learning tasks." Under the terrified eyes of the twins, Alice changed her style of painting and began to criticize them, "This is not knowledge. The question of whether it is useful or not is a question of whether you respect professors and knowledge."
"So Gryffindor deducted ten points for your poor study attitude during this time!" Alice ended with deducting points smartly,
Suddenly learning that the college deducted ten points because of themselves, the twins closed their eyes in pain. They could already imagine the way their classmates looked at them when they went back.
"Then here comes the important point. Did you tell Mrs. Weasley about your idea of quitting school?" Alice asked.
The office was instantly quiet, and silence was often the best answer.
Alice sighed: "Mrs. Weasley is your mother. She loves everyone in the Weasley family, so you shouldn't hide it from her. Just speak well, and I believe she will understand."
"Impossible!" cried Fred. "Mum will kill us if she finds out."
George continued: "Yes, we talked to my mother once before. That time, we worked on "Five Three" all summer vacation."
"Really?" Under the condemning eyes of the twins, Alice touched her nose, "I think it may have something to do with your attitude, you should discuss the future with your mother sincerely and solemnly, so that Mrs Weasley will know about you It's serious, it's well thought out."
"Seems to make sense?" George said uncertainly.
"No matter what, Mom won't allow us to drop out of school!" Fred said affirmatively, "Just look at her attitude towards Percy."
"But a mother's love for her child can break these stereotypes," Alice thought for a while and said, "Isn't Bill like this at the beginning?"
Suddenly hearing Alice mentioning the eldest brother, the twins were a little awkward.But Alice didn't think it mattered, she and Bill had occasional contact, and knew that he had been having an affair with Fleur recently.
But then again, is Fleur an adult?Alice was lost in thought.
Seeing Alice in a daze, Fred finally had the courage to ask, "How did Big Brother convince Mom back then?"
"To be honest, I think my brother's grades have helped a lot," George added.
"There is no secret, just one word: Grinding!" Alice said after regaining her senses, "I think Mrs. Weasley is still very reasonable, as long as you express your plans for the future to her sincerely."
Seeing that the twins were still hesitating, she simply said, "I can write an explanation letter for you, explaining that doing business is also an option. At the same time, it proves that you really want to open a store and have paid a lot for it."
"Thank you Professor!" the twins grinned loudly.
"Of course it's not free." Alice pointed to a large pile of parchment paper in the corner, "Take it home and read it. You must write detailed impressions and ratings on each copy, and I will check them one by one."
"Yes!" The twins replied firmly, and even smiled when they looked at the paper.
"Oh, by the way, Professor Snape asked me to tell you about the rewriting of the Potions paper." Alice added.
"Yes..." The twins put away their smiles and left with their heads hanging down.
This change of attitude before and after made Alice laugh for a full 10 minutes at the dinner table.
"I don't think there's anything funny about that," said Snape grimly. "You should give them another ten."
"If you care, you can find a reason to deduct points on Monday," Alice wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, "Anyway, this is what you are best at, isn't it?"
Snape paused his hand holding the bread and looked up at Alice.In the same situation, the previous Alice would never answer like this.
"What's wrong?" Alice asked in confusion.
Snape shook his head, "Nothing."
Alice took a deep breath: "What happened?"
"I said nothing."
The knife slashed across the porcelain plate, making a harsh sound.Alice said: "I'm so anxious, so what's the matter? Halfway through talking like this, it will be very uncomfortable for others to hear,"
Snape looked at Alice, pondered for a while and said, "Don't you think you recently..."
A "bang" sound interrupted Snape's words.
Both of them looked up and saw the fainted owl on the windowsill.Apparently, the owl had poor eyesight and didn't notice that the window was closed.
"Stupid bird." Alice got up helplessly, and took the letter from the owl's feet.
After reading the signature of the book, she walked back to the dining table bored, and said with a drawn out tone, "Sev, your letter from Dumbledore."
"Considering your trust in Dumbledore, I prefer to call it your Dumbledore." Disgusted by Alice's words, Snape opened the letter with a complicated expression.
The clock on the wall was ticking, half the steak was finished, and Snape still didn't speak.Alice became a little impatient: "What's the matter? It won't be to let you rush back to school at night, right?"
Professors, especially the deans of the colleges, logically should stay at the school in case of any unexpected situation for the students.But isn't it dinner?Now rushing to the school, somewhat hasty and disappointing.
"Almost," Snape folded the letter, got up and said, "I have to go now."
"Has something happened at Hogwarts?" Alice stood up nervously, she was worried that Harry was in danger or worse, the Death Eaters had broken into the school.
Patting Alice on the shoulder, Snape said reassuringly, "It's going to Gaunt's old house."
"Slytherin descendants?" With Snape's affirmation, Alice's face paled instantly, and she grabbed Snape's sleeve, "I'll go with you."

The author has something to say:
Thanks to the little angels for throwing mines, I am so touched!Sure enough, HP's readers are enthusiastic, and the original is too cool.
Then comes the next HP, which is most likely to be a Chinese heroine with strange and great ambitions (not a native of time travel), because I remember that Animagus, who promised the next heroine, would choose from the animals recommended by everyone .I will release the copy next weekend, a medium-length (or long-length), with a lighter tone, cp is George
