In fact, wand registration is a process, because many people have a second wand, and they may also snatch someone else's wand to cast spells, and it is almost impossible to suppress crime by tracking the wand.In the cluttered office, the staff just asked the two of them to fill out a form, said the intention of entering the country, and finally glanced at the wands of the two and it was over.After that, Su Ming took out the letter of introduction that he 'bought' from Minister Fudge, which made the staff more enthusiastic, and called out a small leader to receive the two.As for Samuel G.
Kohaug, then president of the Wizarding State of America?
There's no way a big guy can come and host two Hogwarts professors, unless it's Dumbledore.But that's enough, the section chief of the registration office obviously has the intention of befriending the two, not only personally leading the way to the 'Portkey Management Office' on the other floor, but also talking about a lot of differences between the wizarding world in the United States and the United Kingdom, hoping that the two can pay attention to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.In the United States, for example, you can give alcohol and drugs to young wizards under the age of 17, but you can't borrow wands from them, because that's illegal.You can't call a black wizard to your face unless you're a pure-blood and you're confident you can defeat him.Those who kill No-Maj need to participate in community service in the wizarding community to atone for their crimes, but killing a wizard can be suspected of a 3S felony, and Congress has the power to bypass the International Federation of Wizards and impose the death penalty on foreign wizards.If you accidentally have a relationship with a young wizard under the age of twelve, then it is best to reconcile and marry in private, and not to use the Oblivion Charm to attack the other person, as the latter is not legal.In the spacious elevator, the enthusiastic registration section chief kept talking about these trivial things, and from time to time he would tell some jokes.Su Ming also replied with a British joke, and the two sides were happy, only Snape kept a dead face, staring at the bald head of the half-goblin driving the elevator endlessly, as if he could see the flowers.With a ding, the elevator reached another floor, and the section chief opened the elevator door diligently and led the two out."
Professor Wilson, you are the funniest Englishman I have ever met."
As he walked, he said, as if he was pleased with the priest's joke: "By the way, can you ask about your relationship with Minister Fudge?"
Don't think about it, but just because my grandmother's grandmother was also British, I sometimes wonder if I could go to Great Britain. ”"My relationship with him?
How to say it, an unbreakable alliance. ”Su Ming showed a strange smile: "But he is about to retire, and I have a better relationship with the next candidate for Minister of Magic, Amelia Bones." ”The other party's nose was red, his eyes were bright, and he seemed to hear some satisfactory answer, and he bent even more.The Magical Congress of the United States obviously manages portkeys much better than the British Ministry of Magic, where everything can be used as a portkey, old boots, broken hats, half-eaten cheese, maybe anything.On the other side of the house is a unified statue of the Golden Eagle, and each pedestal is also marked with where it leads.The place was also brought, and even past the section chief of the portkey management office, and the registration section chief and the two of them parted respectfully: "I have a chance to go to Hogwarts to find the two, by the way, there is another word to remind you, don't argue with Mr.
Gilbert Fontana, the current headmaster of Ilvermorny School, which school is the best, don't." ”"Thank you for your help, and if you come to England in the future, I will definitely return the favor for your friendship today."
Su Ming was polite as a gentleman, but Snape grabbed his hand and pressed it to the portkey, and he himself grabbed one of the eagle's wings and unleashed it.In the middle of the day, the two of them were under a mountain, and the thick fog of the night obscured them, and some green eyes in the mountains and forests stared at them.Snape patted the non-existent dust on his suit and let out a sneer: "Hogwarts is the best, there's no doubt about it. ”Su Ming rolled his eyes and saw an owl flying over, and took the doorkey behind the two of them: "But the principal of Ilvermorny also thinks that his school is the best, don't forget that our excuse is to be a teacher to communicate, not to quarrel with others." ”"Their founders are only descendants of Slytherin, and whoever is more orthodox knows with brains."
Snape tapped his suit with his wand, turning it into the black robes he wore every day, "I can leave them alone for a while, though, as long as you can be sure that the Serpent Tree will really help us in our plans." ”"I can't, after all, I haven't seen the Miracle Tree with my own eyes."
Su Ming shook his head and looked at the top of the mountain shrouded in dense fog: "But if you're asking, can the leaves of the snake tree really pull people back from the line of death?"
Then I can give you a positive answer, no matter how serious the injury is, what kind of injury it is, just stick a leaf, and the patient will soon be able to get up and dance. ”Snape was silent for a moment, he looked at the mountain suit and the other party took out such a precious thing to share?
”"Simple, just give them an enemy they can't deal with alone."
Deathstroke walked up the hill with a blank face, the night and fog obscuring his back: "Tell me, Severus, what can you do for Lily Evans with all those words you said to Dumbledore?"
”"Anything."
Snape replied without thinking.It's a majestic castle perched on the cliff at the top of Greylock, and it looks more like a wizard's lair than the Scottish meadow castles of Hogwarts.The clouds made it look like it was floating in the sky, and sometimes it would disappear from view when you closed your eyes, only to reappear in the moonlight.It was inflicted with an unusually powerful magic, and there were more than a dozen Muggle banishment charms alone, barely going far to pass once.After all, it was a strange place, and Snape had no intention of apparition, so he walked up with Su Ming, and after answering some questions from the goblins guarding the door, they lowered the drawbridge and welcomed the two into the castle courtyard.It was an octagonal fort, similar to the predecessor of the Star Castle, and entering the main entrance entered the space of the Traceless Stretching Spell, and a courtyard was the size of dozens of football fields.The goblins who work in the school are similar to the house-elves of Hogwarts, except that these creatures are free beings whose ancestors were also one of the founders of the school.And unlike the garden goblins in the UK, the goblins in the United States should be considered goblins if they are classified by DND, their faces are somewhat like toads or orcs, and they are about one meter two tall.Not only are they responsible for Ilvermorny's security, but they are also responsible for cooking and laundry, patrolling the corridors, repairing furniture, treating the sick, and other chores.These creatures are not weak in intelligence and magic, and their hobbies are to collect strange crafts, such as rattan hats or shoes, or dead fish bones, and specialize in herbology.Past the wand storage and around the four Sorting Statues, the two followed the goblin upstairs, and there were no stairs to move around, so it wasn't a hassle.Walking through the long hallway, looking at the greenery and voodoo-like ornaments everywhere, the two met Headmaster Fontana, who looked more like an old cowboy than a wizard.He wore jeans and a floral shirt instead of a robe, and even when someone came in the middle of the night, he was still working on some papers.The old man stood up to welcome the two of them, and invited them to sit down and drink: "Dumbledore informed me that there are two young men at Hogwarts who want to come to my place, of course this is no problem, I am an old friend of him, and when he came to the United States in 1928, he gave me a watch that can be called, when I had just graduated from the Water Serpent Branch, and was hesitating whether to be an Auror or a teacher, he said that it was better to be a teacher, and said that being with students was as sweet as being in a cockroach pile, and it was true." ”Fontana was delighted to talk about the past, and asked if they had seen Newt Scaman recently, an acquaintance of his who had studied some magical beasts here.What about Nicol Lemay?
Haven't you died lately?
More than 60 years ago, he said that he was going to die, but he is not dead yet.The three of them chatted for a while, typical American politeness, the kind of topic found from acquaintances.Finally he asked about Harry Potter again, because Abraham?
Potter was one of the founders of the Auror of the Magical Congress of the United States, and his great-great-great-great-grandson went to England to give birth to a son named James Potter, also known as Harry's father.Voldemort's influence did not affect the United States back then, but after all, he was also a famous second-generation Dark Lord, and Fontana was also a little curious about how he was defeated by the baby, not to mention that the Immortal Boy was also at the age of school this year.The question was the right one, and no one in the whole of Britain had more say in Harry than Snape, and Su Ming just made a gesture of invitation to the Potions professor and motioned for him to begin."
He's ordinary, untalented, and the most restless of Gryffindor House last year, and Headmaster Dumbledore has decided to let him live the life of an ordinary wizard."
Snape replied solemnly, his eyes narrowed, as if he were angry at the thought of it.Fontana graduated from the Sorting House as a long-horned serpent, a symbol of wisdom, much like Ravenclaw, who did not have a good impression of the thorny students who were always causing trouble.He wiped his hands on his pants with some regret, and a trace of disappointment flashed on his red face: "Okay, it's not too early, there are still thousands of students staying in the school now, and I will introduce you to the students at breakfast time tomorrow, and you can audit any holiday training class."
Of course, this is not much formal teaching, more like a hobby club. ”As the headmaster spoke, he shook the bell on the table, and immediately a goblin apparition came in, ready to take the two professors to rest.
