"... Eat chocolates in the library! Get out... Get out! Even if it's Easter, the library is just a library, not a common room where you can do whatever you want... Get out!"
When Maka was taking the two Hohenheim brothers past the library door and heading to her office, a scream suddenly rang out in the library. You don't need to look to know that Mrs. Pince must be chasing people away again.
"If you want to find some information, going to the library is actually a good choice. Basically, Hogwarts has a very rich collection of books." Maka said to Sarah behind her while leading the way. , "Of course, try not to eat snacks inside, and tea is only available near the reading table. As you can see, our librarian, Mrs. Pince, has a bad temper. If she is caught eating inside..."
Before he finished speaking, he heard a burst of footsteps coming from far and near in the library. And at the next moment, two figures rushed out of the library like the wind. Behind them were various textbooks, schoolbags, quills, ink bottles and other items. They were flying in the air and chasing after them. He hit the two people on the head hard.
"Harry? Ginny?"
Maka turned around when she heard the noise, and soon discovered that the two of them were acquaintances. He waved his hand and took control of the books and learning tools in his hands.
"Ouch... Maka, thanks."
Harry said this while holding his knees and breathing heavily, and Ginny nodded towards Maka.
"Maka, this... uh, what's going on?"
Needless to say, there is no need to say more about Sarah who is following Maka. Although she is still young, once her deceptive sweet smile appears, she can always attract everyone's attention.
However, the most eye-catching person at the moment is not cute little Sarah, but her fat brother Noah Hohenheim.
Previously at the Three Broomsticks Bar, Sarah, who was said to be able to easily wake up the fat young master, made it clear that she would not cooperate. After a lot of hard work, Maka finally woke up this fat sleepyhead...
However, it turns out that when it comes to those who are really sleepy, just opening their eyes is far from enough to wake them up. The fat young master was drowsy all the way back, as if he would fall asleep again at any time.
Just seeing his huge body full of fat hanging there, everyone can't help but feel worried for him, for fear that he will collapse accidentally.
"Oh, these are the Hohenheim brothers and sisters from Switzerland," Maka introduced Harry and Ginny. "This is the brother Noah, and then this is the sister Sarah... I invited them to our Hogwart in Beauxbatons before. I’d like to visit here and have some fun. I’ll probably live here for a while, so you can get to know each other first.”
Having said this, he paused for a moment, then reached out and patted the fat young master on the arm.
"I met them at the Three Broomsticks just now, so I brought them here directly..." Maka said, "This guy drank a little too much and was always in a daze on the way back. You don't need to pay too much attention - Sarah, these are Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley, both good people!"
"Ah... Miss Hohenheim, hello!" Harry glanced at the fat man first, feeling that talking to him was probably in vain, so he simply turned his attention to little Sarah again.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Potter, Miss Weasley...nice to meet you."
When greeting people she doesn't know, this little girl always uses her age advantage to maintain a certain distance from people, giving the place a good impression of being well-behaved and sensible.
Although she said that, the treatment she gave Maka was naturally a lot worse, but the more straightforward the communication, the more simple but real a sense of trust she could sometimes develop.
"Okay, you can talk more when you have the chance later, but let's forget it now." Maka waved her hand and said, "I have to go back to the office first, and then take them to the principal's office to say hello to Professor McGonagall... in a moment See you!"
As he spoke, he glanced back and forth between Harry and Ginny a few more times, and finally said with a smile: "Very good, very good... You continue, I won't disturb you anymore."
After returning Harry's textbooks and other school supplies to him, Maka took Sarah and the fat young man Noah further into the corridor. After turning a corner, he left Harry and Ginny's sight.
"My office is a bit crowded, so I would like you and your brother to wait here for a moment. I will come out immediately after I get the things."
Maka said to Sarah at the door, then opened the door of her office and walked in. He didn't close the door, and Sara, out of curiosity, couldn't help but peek inside, but quickly retracted her head.
"Is this just a bit crowded?" Sarah couldn't help but pursed her lips.
…
When Maka brought Sarah and the fat young master to the door of the principal's office, Sarah seemed to think it was rude to let her brother meet the principal of Hogwarts in this dazed state, so she finally agreed to take the initiative to send him to the principal of Hogwarts. Totally woke me up.
What made Maka feel inexplicably happy was that Sarah just stretched out her right foot towards her "Brother Noah" and kicked the opposite bone of the opponent's calf. The next second, the fat young man immediately squatted down on the spot, holding his legs and howling.
"Good morning, Brother Noah?" Sarah looked at the fat man in front of her with a smile, and said with an affectionate expression, "It's time for us to meet Ms. Minerva McGonagall?"
"Oh... of course, I... hiss... I know, of course I know." The fat man gasped and said with a grimace, "Good sister, can't you be gentler? Hiss... I think this bone must be cracked. opened."
"Really?" Sarah asked with concern, "Brother Noah, do you need Sarah to repair it for you?"
When the fat young master heard this, he immediately jumped up and shook his calf hurriedly.
"No, I mean... Well, look! My feeling must have been wrong just now. It's fine! There's nothing wrong with it at all!"
Maka looked at the fat man who started playing tricks as soon as he woke up, chuckled and shook his head.
"No need to be too formal. You are just here for fun at my invitation this time. It has nothing to do with your Hohenheim family. You just need to have a casual chat for a while -" He reached out and knocked on the door and said casually, " Just as my friend."
"Oh! That's great!" The fat man immediately clapped his hands happily.
As Maka knocked on the door of the principal's office, Professor McGonagall's serious response sounded inside as always, and soon the door opened with a "click" from the inside.
This time, the person who opened the door for Maka was not Charlotte, who worked as an assistant at Hogwarts. After all, it was during the holiday, and she was probably working at the Pig's Head Bar to earn pocket money. But this time it was not Mag who opened the door, because when the door slowly opened, a familiar figure appeared from the crack in the door.
"Professor Snape?" Maka was stunned for a moment, then said cheerfully, "Since you became the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, we seem to have met much less often outside of the auditorium?"
"Those little guys lack training. If I want them to keep up with my progress, I will naturally waste more time." Snape curled his lips, with his usual impatience on his expression, "Come in!"
He said that, but Maka could somewhat hear the enthusiasm hidden in his words that was different from ordinary people.
He has been looking forward to this position for many years, and now that he has got what he wanted, he is naturally very motivated. It's just that his character is like this. He never expresses his inner joy easily, but instead pretends to be indifferent or even a little bored.
If anything, Snape is just not good at expressing his emotions, that's all.
"...Oh, this is the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts, Mr. Severus Snape." Maka introduced Sarah and the fat young man Noah by the way, "Professor, these two These are the Hohenheim brothers and sisters, Sarah Hohenheim and Noah Hohenheim."
"Huh?" Snape, who was walking in front, turned around in surprise when he heard this and looked between the two brothers and sister. "The Hohenheim family? Could it be that they are the general manager of the Egyptian Alchemy Research Center? Mr. Alejandro Hohenheim’s children?”
"That's right." Maka smiled and nodded.
"Hello, Mr. Snape, Sarah von Hohenheim greets you." Sarah gave a gentle salute, "Mr. Snape, as a famous potions master, has made extraordinary achievements in potions. As usual, my father also talks about you often!"
Maka on the side secretly laughed when she heard this little girl complimenting Snape so much. To be honest, Snape has always been very low-key. Of course, it goes without saying that his level of potions is high, but in terms of achievements... he is covering them all under his own hands! Not much is made public in the academic world.
But, who wouldn’t be happy to hear flattery? What's more, it came out of the mouth of a little girl, which is even more comforting.
Snape was quite pleased with her words. After all, the Hohenheim family was much more famous than him!
Of course, the two of them, older and younger, had no time to chat at the moment. There were only a few steps from the door to the principal's desk. Soon, Snape led them to Professor McGonagall.
"Professor, Happy Easter!" When everyone stopped in front of the desk, Maka suddenly had an idea and took out a beautiful chocolate egg from her waist, and put it on McGonagall along with a small basket. on the desk.
By the way, he actually brought this directly from the Three Broomsticks bar, and there was still wine in the eggshell!
