Chapter 237 New semester.

Of course, the current Dementors still don’t have much killing power.

Even if the Ministry of Magic knew about what happened tonight, they would probably think it was just a misunderstanding and a joke.

They were the ones who wanted to protect Harry and arrest Sirius. What bad intentions could they have?

Dolly also knew that she could not change anything.

Even if he took this matter to Dumbledore and asked Dumbledore to help Hogwarts return to normal, he would not be able to do it.

Because the Ministry of Magic will not obey Dumbledore's orders, it is already very good that they do not carry out the opposite of Dumbledore's words.

Anything Dumbledore did could be understood by Fudge as preparation for the election.

With Fudge in this state of mind, Dolly really didn't want to deal with the Ministry of Magic right now.

Sure enough, in the end you still have to rely on yourself.

After coming up with an answer that was nothing new but had been verified time and time again, Dolly finally ended the commotion and started rushing towards the castle.

This time Luna is not a freshman, so she chooses to go with Dolly.

So the four of them took the Therius's car to Hogwarts, while the freshmen had to walk along the Black Lake. This would waste more time, but it was also the best way to create an atmosphere before the sorting ceremony.

Dolly, Qiu Zhang, Hermione and Luna were together.

As for Harry's side, in addition to the three of them, there was also Lupin.

Dolly originally wanted to say hello, but seeing that the four of them were all stiff and silent, Dolly did not take any action.

After all, Lupin's identity is still a secret.

Dolly's presence might have made many people realize that Lupin was the new professor, so Dolly decided not to spoil the fun for the time being.

"You can see Thestrals, too?"

On the way, Hermione found that something was wrong with Luna, because Luna actually reached out to touch the Thestral.

Luna didn't answer the question directly, but instead said: "They are actually very well-behaved animals and know how to understand people's hearts."

"How about we feed them together if we get a chance?"

These Thestrals are usually kept free in the Forbidden Forest, which is why they are considered to be very wild.

But in Luna's eyes, this kind of Thestrals is like a good baby, and Dolly can also see that Thestrals enjoy Luna's touch.

It turns out that if you have a high affinity, you can do whatever you want.

So Dolly said, "Count me in."

Hermione quickly waved her hands and said, "There's no need for me to do that. I'm allergic to animals without flesh."

The Thestrals are a magical creature that is skin and bones. Just understand it in the literal sense. The Thestrals have no flesh, only skin and bones.

Of course, this is actually a rumor.

Thestrals just look very thin. They are not undead magical creatures and eat, drink, defecate and urinate like ordinary animals.

However, only those who have seen death can see them, which makes people think that the Thestrals will bring disaster.

But on the contrary, when the human-like Thestrals realize that a disaster is coming, they will inform humans.

It was originally an act of helping humans, but due to misunderstanding, it brought bad reputation to Yezhin.

Of course, Dolly, like Luna, wants to feed the Thestrals, not for such complicated historical reasons.

It's because of something much simpler: Thestrals are actually Pegasus.

In the UK, it's not easy to see other Pegasus.

So Dolly fantasized about what it would feel like to ride a Pegasus one day.

As the few people walked and talked, the atmosphere gradually warmed up, and everyone came out of the shadow of the Dementor attack.

It wasn't long before they arrived at Hogwarts.

After a few people sat down, they began to wait for the arrival of the new students.

Dolly had no expectations for this year's freshman.

Last year, thanks to her efforts, the young cameraman Colin and many others who should have been petrified escaped death.

This year's little wizards don't need to encounter these dangers, so Dolly naturally has no need to deal with the little wizards.

So everything went according to plan and the sorting ceremony went smoothly.

Dolly clapped with the other young wizards, and finally cheered for the new students coming to Ravenclaw.

There are still very few new students in Ravenclaw. After all, smart people have always been a minority, and this also makes the new students of Ravenclaw enjoy unprecedented enthusiasm.

But compared to the enthusiastic seniors around them, the freshmen looked more at Dolly.

Who makes Dolly more beautiful now?

It would be fine for the old students who are familiar with Dolly, they just look at her a few more times and wonder if she has used any whitening and skin care products.

After all, Dolly is already a third-grade girl. She is at the age where she can talk about love, so it is normal for her to have some changes.

Hogwarts does not prohibit wizards and witches from wearing makeup, but only requires them to wear appropriate makeup when necessary.

Of course, considering the current year and the limited knowledge that young wizards have about Muggles, it is much more likely that young wizards will be banned from using potions than from wearing makeup.

But in reality, no one cares even if the little wizards make love potions, let alone such a small matter as putting on makeup.

Most importantly, Dolly didn't wear any makeup.

She touched her cheek and didn't care much at first that her Charm was only 6 points.

Isn't she just a little bit prettier? She doesn't intend to rely on her looks to charm others.

But now Dolly realized that she could at least cover it up now, but if her charm was improved, then the rate of people turning around to look at her would be 100%, and everyone would think that Dolly was a human-shaped walking aphrodisiac.

After all, according to the scoring standards, Dolly's appearance has now reached a score of nine points.

As for the legendary perfect beauty that only appears once every few thousand years, Dolly herself didn't dare to imagine it.

Not only did I not dare to imagine what I would become, I was also worried about how much trouble this would cause.

Unfortunately, when Dolly wanted to know what was going on, Miss Men remained silent.

Dolly could only think that maybe she could use reverse makeup to artificially create some blemishes in the future.

But living like this is too tiring.

Just before the Sorting ceremony ended, Harry and the others finally returned.

They took a carriage directly to see Madam Pomfrey, and the same treatment was given to the other people who were attacked by Dementors.

However, although Harry fainted, he did not choose to be hospitalized, but returned to the hall.

The people around him began to care about Harry's condition, and no one showed any sign of ridicule.

This was a relief to Harry; he had expected to be questioned about his lack of willpower.

Harry obviously underestimated the power of Dementors, which are often used as monsters to scare children in the wizarding world.

When everyone knew that Harry fainted after being attacked by Dementors, the only ones who were gloating were Harry's enemies.

For example, Malfoy from Slytherin.

Although Malfoy looked gloating, his eyes were always on Dolly.

He had already made up his mind that if Dolly looked at him, he would immediately pretend nothing had happened.

It's a pity that Malfoy thought too much.

Throughout the entire sorting ceremony, Dolly didn't even glance in his direction.

Dolly doesn't even care about Malfoy's father Lucius now, so how could she care about Malfoy?

Finally, the sorting ceremony ended.

Dumbledore stood up and began his speech.

The young wizards also quieted down quickly, which was unusual. Even Ron's red-haired twin brother did not say a word this time.

The story of the Dementors has spread, and everyone wants to know why.

Seeing this, Dumbledore had no choice but to interrupt his prepared speech and explain the matter first.

"Welcome back to Hogwarts!"

"I have a few things to tell you all, one of which is so important that I thought it best to get it out before your heads get all muddled while you enjoy your delicious meal..."

Dumbledore cleared his throat and continued, "Our school is currently experiencing the arrival of several Dementors from Azkaban. They are sent by the Ministry of Magic to perform official duties. I'm sure you all know this because they searched the Hogwarts Express."

Although Dumbledore kept his tone calm, it was obvious that he hated Dementors very much.

This also confirmed Dolly's previous guess.

Dumbledore didn't want the Ministry of Magic to do this, so the Ministry of Magic did it anyway.

Outside of Hogwarts, Dumbledore's influence and power declined rapidly. At that time, even on the train not far from Hogwarts, Dumbledore could not help.

Perhaps in this sense, this is also a demonstration by the Ministry of Magic?

"They are stationed at every entrance to the school,"

Dumbledore continued, "I must make it clear that no one is allowed to leave the school while they are here."

"No tricks, no guile, no disguise can fool a Dementor—not even the Invisibility Cloak."

Harry just felt a headache, he thought this sentence was addressed to him alone.

But then he realized that the invisibility cloak is actually a common magic prop. Harry's is special because it can make him invisible permanently and will not be worn out.

"It is not in the nature of Dementors to understand excuses or pleas for mercy, so I remind everyone here not to give them a reason to harm you."

"I hope the prefects and our newly elected Head Boy and Head Girl will ensure that not a single student comes into conflict with a Dementor."

Percy Weasley sat a few seats away from Harry, his chest puffed out and his gaze gazing about with a haughty air.

Dolly only then remembered that Percy was the prefect this year.

This is a great honor for him and the entire Weasley family.

Percy becoming a prefect means that he will be given priority by the Ministry of Magic after graduation and even have a bright future.

This is indeed the case. Although Percy followed the wrong person in the original book, he quickly rose to a high position.

If Hermione hadn't come from behind and taken the position, Percy might even have had a shot at the position of Minister of Magic.

From this, it is not difficult to see that the Weasley family is poor simply because they have too many children.

But when it comes to the future achievements of these children, most wizarding families can't catch up.

Dumbledore, making sure everyone understood what he said, smiled and said, "Let's change the subject."

“I’m delighted to welcome two new teachers to our lineup this semester.”

"First, there was Professor Lupin, who readily agreed to fill the Defense Against the Dark Arts vacancy."

There was a cold, scattered applause in the hall. Only the students who had shared a compartment with Professor Lupin on the train, Harry among them, clapped enthusiastically.

The other teachers were all wearing their best clothes, and Professor Lupin looked even more ragged sitting next to them.

Dolly looked at Snape after hearing this.

She was curious about what Snape's expression was now.

Sure enough, even Snape was defeated.

Dolly saw that Snape's thin, withered face was twitching. He was surprised and angry, but more of it was anger and hatred.

For Snape, there was one more guy who was as annoying as Harry.

Let a werewolf be a teacher?

What on earth was Dumbledore thinking?

Dolly can answer this question.

Apart from Lupin, what serious person would take the Defense Against the Dark Arts course?

We can't let Dumbledore teach this class himself.
