Chapter 289 Transaction Secret Undisclosed
Hogwarts, on the ground floor, an empty classroom.
"So, is all of this just an accident?"
Dumbledore took a deep breath, his eyebrows trembling slightly.
The atmosphere in the entire classroom was quite harmonious. Elena and Hanna were seated in their chairs, and Pippi was crouching in an empty seat like an obedient student, although this was terrible in itself.
Dumbledore rubbed his temples, something that had been worrying him in his heart had truly happened.
Pippi, who never bothered to confess with the students, began to sing with Elena like never before.
"Yes, the main responsibility is that I didn't aim properly, I'm so sorry."
Elena nodded and looked cute and serious.
"No, no, I should have moved the chalk to catch the spell, but unfortunately I failed miserably."
Pippi said earnestly, her eyes shining shrewdly.
If it hadn't been just a few minutes ago that he witnessed the tragic "battle remnants", Dumbledore would almost believe the ghost of this person, but most importantly now is to never ask these two little ones to cause trouble.
"Miss Abbott, can you tell me what just happened?"
Grindelwald, with his arms crossed, attempted to seek another spectator's point of view.
"I"
Hannah looked at the white-haired goblins around her with some hesitation, gritted her teeth, and said firmly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Apokalis. Because I was so tired, I didn't notice anything."
Dumbledore said calmly and patiently, showing his representative kindness on his face.
"Don't be afraid, we just want to understand the situation and won't punish you."
"I'm sorry, Professor. I don't remember anything"
Hannah lowered her head and whispered, her tone unexpectedly firm.
The whole room fell into an uncomfortable silence again.
Dumbledore and Grindelwald suddenly realized a problem. When they chose to put the three little ones in the same class, even if it was only about ten minutes, it would be enough for Elena to make a seamless confession.
After all, strictly speaking, if seen only from the school rules, there doesn't seem to be any provision that imposes punishment for the spellcasting errors of young wizards and the accidental impact against the castle wall. Time-wise, when the two arrived at the scene, it was still not curfew time.
"Alright, you may go."
Dumbledore sighed helplessly and whispered to Elena, Hannah, and Pippi.
"Professor, goodbye! Elena, good night!"
Pippi blew a loud whistle, rose into the air, took off her hat and waved to Elena, with a crisp sound, she quickly disappeared into thin air.
Obviously, although she is a thousand-year-old elf, compared to Elena, Pippi's ghost is still too simple. In less than ten minutes, she was completely disheartened by this prank. The white-haired goblins were left stunned.
"Professor Dumbledore, Mr. Apocalis, good night."
Hannah also showed a relieved expression on her face, hurriedly got up, grabbed the white-haired goblins beside her, and fled from the classroom at a trotting speed.
"It seems that Hogwarts has had two difficult elves since this year?"
Grindelwald turned his head and looked at the back of Elena, who was about to disappear from his sight, and smiled happily.
As a qualified demon, he knows all the rules and regulations and finds a reasonable balance to dance on the edge of the rules. This is the most basic and difficult point from school rules to magical world laws, and even to human civilization. The logic of customs is essentially the same.
"It's not a big issue, after all, Hogwarts has had two castle administrators starting this year."
"Wait, Albus, you wouldn't naively believe that this would tie me in, would you?"
Grindelwald snorted contemptuously, tickling his nails and looking amusedly at Dumbledore.
He had already thought about it, but all incidents related to Elena only need to be kept quiet and close or pretend to be dead, then the fire definitely won't burn him to experience all that Newmongard story. After that, Grindelwald's only interest was to see how Elena would entangle Dumbledore.
"perhaps"
Dumbledore looked significantly at Grindelwald, with a mysterious smile on his face.
A confrontation period that can last for thousands of years is absolutely impossible to stop due to a unilateral truce. When Grindelwald starts to roam and oversee the students in Hogwarts Castle, the wonderful entanglement of fate will lead Pippi to pay attention to the new castle administrator.
When Elena joins the battle, all of this can only become more complicated.
After all, although Pippi's power comes from the indifference left by all bear children in almost a thousand years of Hogwarts history.
Before this, there has never been a single word and action that allows Pippi to quickly form an allied state after the first contact, even if they are the Weasley family twins. Making it a reality.
On the other hand, Hannah and Elena finally crossed the passage and returned to the Hufflepuff common room.
This is a comfortable round room with a low ceiling, which always reminds one of the badger burrow.
Compared to the bustling Gryffindor common room above, the little Hufflepuff badgers are gentler and more reserved. The large round room is quite simple, with hanging or placed plants everywhere, when there are many people, they will wriggle and sing and dance.
However, it was already past ten o'clock at that time, and there were no other students in the large common room. Only the warm fireplace continued to glow faithfully, illuminating the entire room.
"Elena, were you not serious?" Hannah turned and asked quietly, "I mean, using Pippi's birthday as the starting point for the Hogwarts calendar, wouldn't that be hasty, after all?"
The Hogwarts calendar, this is a name that Elena briefly mentioned in the previous class.
If there is anything else that could qualify to defeat the AD calendar and become a recognized chronological system by the entire magical world, then the time established by Hogwarts as a standard of measurement is definitely a heavyweight that does not allow it.
However, the only thing that bothered Elena was that the establishment of Hogwarts was a long and abstract process.
After all, from the founding of Hogwarts Castle to the establishment of the four houses, from the incorporation of the first student to the setting up of the first class, in the developmental history of Hogwarts, there are countless moments that can serve as a basis. This span of time is extensive enough to span two or three years.
The reason Elena must go to the library to consult materials is to find a way to establish an initial point with reliable historical data support, so that once all of this is established, it is not questioned by strict experts in the history of magic.
Indeed, the most terrifying thing is not being criticized by experts in the history of magic outside the school, but if they accidentally provoke Professor Binns, then everyone would have to face the 724 hours of the dedicated history of magic professor.
However, when Elena saw Pippi, she suddenly remembered a conversation with Dumbledore in the Slytherin common room a long time ago, which had always tormented her, and instantly solved the problem of Pippi's birthday. As a starting point for the magical era and the Hogwarts calendar, there was absolutely no problem.
Even if Professor Binns is in trouble, it is also to talk to Pippi. What is the relationship between the two special ghosts and her, Elena?
"No problem. In a sense, this is the most precise and suitable moment."
Elena smiled mysteriously, without explaining much. She placed the dense historical materials she had in her hands on the table and lazily yawned.
"Trust me, as long as you truly understand the historical text and truly understand Hogwarts, you will never have questions about this calendar. At least I am sure that Professor Dumbledore will also support our idea. In short, deal!"
"The first year of the magical era was 998 years ago, in 993 AD. In that year, Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the first magic school for the entire society, was officially established."
"Now, let's find a way to make some more mysterious claims."
Elena unfolded the parchment excitedly, took the quill and dipped it in ink, showing an anxious expression on her face.
"For example, the magical number seven."
