New Professor at Hogwarts

Chapter 8 Positioning yourself

The kitchen of the Burrow was very small. When a group of them came in, it suddenly seemed quite crowded. In the middle was a clean table and a few chairs. Mr. Weasley was sitting on the chair, flipping through the Daily Prophet. In addition, There is also a little red-haired girl, Ginny Weasley, the youngest child of the Weasley family.

Seeing a group of people coming in - mainly Harry Potter - Ginny's cheeks were red. Harry was a little embarrassed and had to pretend he didn't see her.

"Xia Ran, sit down quickly, I haven't congratulated you on becoming a Hogwarts professor." Mr. Weasley said, putting down the newspaper in his hand.

As soon as a few people sat down, the table was suddenly crowded, almost packed.

"It's a bit crowded." Mr. Weasley's face turned slightly red.

Mrs. Weasley was still cooking dinner, seemingly not paying attention to the conversation, but her ears seemed to be red.

Xia Ran smiled slightly and said: "It doesn't matter, this is the best. It's lively when there are more people. It's actually not interesting to be alone."

"By the way, Harry, why are you here?" Xia Ran looked at Harry and asked. Although he knew that Harry had come to the Burrow during the summer and even knew the reasons behind it, he could only pretend not to know at this time.

"Professor, do you know me?" Harry was a little surprised at first, and then suddenly realized, ah, yes, this is not the Dursley's house, he is also a famous figure in the wizarding world.

"Harry has been tricked, Professor." Ron couldn't help but said, "It's all Draco Malfoy..."

"Ron!" Mr. Weasley said seriously. Ron opened and closed his mouth, but finally closed his mouth without daring to make a sound.

Xia Ranxin said that I knew the inside story clearly, but I couldn't tell outsiders.

"Charlie, Harry met a house elf named Dobby at his aunt and uncle's house. Because Dobby used magic, the Ministry of Magic thought that Harry violated the "Reasonable Restraint of Minor Wizards Act". As a result, Harry also received a warning letter from the Legal Enforcement Division of the Ministry of Magic, your former department," Mr. Weasley explained.

"Dobby is the house elf of the Malfoy family. He came to warn Harry not to go to Hogwarts. Hmm, it must be Malfoy's conspiracy to deliberately tease Harry." Fred said.

"Besides, Harry was locked up by his aunt and uncle," Ron added.

"So, we went to rescue Harry." George said, "Using Dad's car..."

"Ahem!" Mr. Weasley coughed heavily, and George muttered a few words, but still didn't say anything.

Xia Ran secretly smiled. Mr. Weasley loves Muggle items and has modified countless Muggle items. Some of them he has also passed through. After all, he used to be a member of the Office for Prohibiting the Abuse of Magic. Some things need to be prohibited from being abused. Handled by Magic Office Clerk.

However, Dobby's warning to Harry Potter was not out of thin air, nor was it what George and the others thought - they thought Draco Malfoy sent Dobby here to tease Harry. If he really It would be very ridiculous not to go to Hogwarts - in fact, Dobby really thinks about Harry Potter, although there are some problems with his methods.

"Well, do you want to warn Harry and the others to be careful when taking the Hogwarts Express at platform nine and three-quarters?" Xia Ran suddenly remembered something. In the original time and space, Harry and Ron The two of them blocked platform nine and three-quarters because of Dobby's use of magic, which led them to have a sudden idea and fly to Hogwarts in Mr. Weasley's magically modified car.

"Forget it, Dobby is determined to prevent Harry Potter from going to school. I'm not Dumbledore, nor am I a member of the Malfoy family, so I can't stop Dobby." Xia Ran shook her head secretly, the house elf's Magic is often different from wizards. Even though he is a newly hired professor at Hogwarts, he doesn't necessarily have a lot of skills.

Dobby was standing by, but he didn't have any good ideas. Anyway, didn't Harry and Ron successfully arrive at Hogwarts in the original time and space?

There was only Voldemort's diary when he was young, and Xia Ran was a little worried about it.

However, he did not want to embark on the path of a dark wizard, and he did not want to have anything to do with Voldemort for the time being. As long as he figured out the source of the Force points, improving his strength would not be as difficult as it is now, so he went to fight Voldemort in a battle of wits and courage. It's totally unnecessary.

No one died in the original time and space, but he was worried that if he intervened, abnormal changes would occur under the correction of the plot, resulting in completely dead victims in the secret room incident, not just Petrified, just like Myrtle who unfortunately died when Voldemort first opened the Chamber of Secrets decades ago.

If he paid more attention when teaching at Hogwarts, there must be no big problems.

Of course, when it comes to matters related to himself or his relatives and friends, he will not sit back and watch, but he has to pay attention to the method.

As for the Malfoy family, it is a pure-blood family in the wizarding world with a long history, very powerful power, and a lot of money. As a symbol of the ancient wizarding family - house elves, of course there are, Dobby It's the Malfoy house elf.

The Weasley family is somewhat inferior in terms of historical background and has no house elves.

"Malfoy must be trying to play a trick on Harry." Fred vowed.

"Professor, the Malfoy boy, Draco Malfoy, is also studying at Hogwarts. He is in the same grade as Ron and Harry, but he is in Slytherin House." George was afraid that Xia Ran didn't know. , explained specifically.

Xia Ran pretended to know just now and nodded.

Looking at Ginny, Xia Ran smiled and said, "Ginny will also go to Hogwarts this year?"

The diary of Voldemort's youth was also his first Horcrux. Xia Ran remembered that after Lucius Malfoy had a conflict with Mr. Weasley in Diagon Alley, he mixed it in an old second-hand book. Gave it to Ginny.

Xia Ran guessed that the reason why Lucius Malfoy did this was to get rid of the stolen goods in his home - after all, they were Voldemort's belongings - the Ministry of Magic has recently been very strict about such things; It was to force Dumbledore away and let him step down as the principal of Hogwarts. As for giving it to Ginny, it was done conveniently. Without Ginny, there would be other innocent students.

But Lucius Malfoy would be very happy if he could frame the Weasley family.

Due to the inertia of the plot, I'm afraid that even if Xia Ran reminds Ginny, she will still fall into the trap. After all, she is just a little witch who has just learned magic. Besides, Xia Ran's reminder should not be too obvious. As a reincarnated person, he does not want to Anyone knows this secret about themselves.

However, he was still going to make some insinuations later while eating, so that even if Ginny got Riddle's diary, she would be on guard and not be confused by the young Voldemort in the diary.

"Yes, Professor." Ginny looked more excited. Except when she faced Harry, she had always been a lively and strong little witch.
