Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard - Chapter 978
When Kyle found Professor McGonagall, she had just sent Professor Marchiban back to the room.
In addition to dormitories, Hogwarts also provides rooms for guests to live in.
In fact, people from the Wizarding Examination Authority come here once a year and are already familiar with it, so they don’t need a professor to lead them there.
It’s just that this is Professor McGonagall’s first N.E.W.T exam after taking over as principal, so Class March chatted with her for a while.
After seeing Kyle, she walked over quickly.
“I heard from the portrait that you are looking for me?”
“Ah, yes.” Kyle nodded.
“What’s the matter?” Professor McGonagall continued to ask, as if she didn’t know what happened, and the portrait that reported the message didn’t tell her.
“A not-so-popular guy came to Hogwarts,” Kyle said.
“Who is it?” Professor McGonagall asked casually, but didn’t pay too much attention.
This is Hogwarts, and they have no one to fear except Voldemort.
And now Voldemort is dead “It’s Grindelwald.” Kyle said.
Professor McGonagall ran after him and took two steps back uncontrollably.
Kyle transformed a chair behind Professor McGonagall in time to prevent her from falling.
Professor McGonagall sat in a chair, her face gradually turning pale at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“Who were you talking about just now?”
“Grindelwald.” Kyle repeated again, “He came to Hogwarts. He is in the headmaster’s office. I just sent him away.”
“This is impossible!” Professor McGonagall blurted out: “He has been imprisoned in Nurmengard.”
“What you said is exactly the same as Principal Dippet.” Kyle shrugged, “Then let me say it again, it is always someone who can imprison Grindelwald, not the so-called Nurmengard Tower——. “
Then, Kyle told what happened just now.
Including meeting Grindelwald who suddenly appeared at the gate of the castle, and then the two went to the principal’s office together, as well as the subsequent plan, there was no hiding anything.
Professor McGonagall said nothing and kept listening.
“Oh, by the way, I still have photos here.” Kyle patted his pocket, “I can make it later. Although Grindelwald looks a lot older, those of you who have seen him People should still be able to recognize it.”
Hearing what Kyle said, Professor McGonagall twisted a handkerchief hard.
As a wizard who has personally experienced that era, Professor McGonagall knows better than anyone how terrifying Grindelwald is.
In terms of the influence brought by his name alone, Voldemort was far behind him, not even on the same level.
The only good thing is that Grindelwald doesn’t seem to want to start a war with Hogwarts.
And according to Kyle, he and Grindelwald had reached some kind of deal.
“This news is too incredible. I need to calm down.” Professor McGonagall stood up and said.
“Of course, I understand.” Kyle said, “Professor Dumbledore’s portrait also knows the whole process. You can go to him. He should be waiting for you in the principal’s office now.”
Professor McGonagall left in a hurry.
Kyle also returned to his cabin.
The first thing he did was to take out the negatives, develop the photos, and soak them in developing solution.
The whole process was effortless and every step was very smooth. It had obviously been done many times.
In a short time, the personal photo album of Grindelwald was completed.
According to their previous agreement, Kyle made a new photo album and pasted the photos of Dumbledore and Grindelwald on them one after another.
Dumbledore’s photo was kindly provided by Kyle. Although it is not a collector’s item, it still occupies an exclusive position.
But when he turned to the last page, Kyle suddenly hesitated.
There were only two photos left in his hand.
In one of them, Dumbledore was showing off the woolen gloves and socks he knitted. Kyle remembered that it was during Christmas a few years ago when Dumbledore first learned to knit gloves.
During lunch on Christmas Day, he showed off his work to other professors and was photographed by a Ravenclaw who was staying at the school.
Kyle later bought the photo for ten Sickles.
And this photo corresponds to the scene of Grindelwald throwing the woolen gloves out of the window with a look of disgust.
Kyle felt that these two photos were perfect as the finale of the album, but he was also worried that Grindelwald would become angry when he saw them.
After all, this action was taken at his suggestion. With Grindelwald’s unreasonable character, he would definitely come to trouble him after knowing the truth.
With Kyle’s current strength – well, it’s not that he can’t beat him, I just don’t think it’s necessary.
It’s better for wizards to be harmonious with each other instead of throwing wands when they meet.
But—if Grindelwald couldn’t see this set of photos, wouldn’t his feelings be conveyed?
Kyle sat there, confused.
It wasn’t until late at night that he finally made a decision.
As if it was to take care of Grindelwald, a centenarian, in order not to irritate him, Kyle reluctantly put away the photo of Dumbledore on the table and replaced it with another one, Dumbledore and the giant horn. Photo of sheep.
Bighorn sheep, wool, woolen gloves… I hope Grindelwald gets the hint.
He is so smart, he can definitely understand.
Kyle closed the photo album and went to sleep.
The pressure brought by Grindelwald caused him to fall asleep quickly after relaxing.
But he didn’t know that the lights in the Hogwarts principal’s office were on all night.
The next day is the day when seventh grade students officially begin their N.E.W.T. exams.
As the principal of Hogwarts, Professor McGonagall no longer needed to supervise student exams, but she still appeared in the auditorium on time.
Her complexion looked good. From a distance, she looked exactly the same as usual. Only when she got closer could she see the fatigue in her eyes.
After breakfast, the students went to the examination room one after another.
In a deserted corridor on the second floor, Professor McGonagall also returned the photo album in her hand to Kyle.
“That’s right, it’s Grindelwald——.” Her voice was hoarse.
Although that man had grown older, she could never admit his mistake. Grindelwald, who almost made the entire European wizarding world surrender, was really back.
“Professor, I think we don’t need to be nervous – at least not for now.”
Kyle thought for a moment and said, “Grindelwald is back, but he is no longer the Grindelwald who wants to rule the magical world.”
“You said the same thing as Albus, he said the same thing yesterday.” Professor McGonagall glanced at Kyle.
“But he is indeed Grindelwald, and we cannot remain indifferent just because of a guess.”
“It can’t be regarded as a guess -” Kyle thought for a while and said: “Yesterday I was discussing with him about the Horcrux. At that time, I deliberately mentioned Nurmengard and wanted him to help there.
“Grindelwald agreed without thinking, which means that he did not intend to leave Nurmengard. After all, I did not mention a specific time at the time. He can only help at any time if he is always there.
“But if he still wants to conquer the magical world, will he still live in Nurmengard?”
Kyle said, not noticing that Professor McGonagall’s expression kept changing.
She felt that what Kyle said made sense.
Grindelwald’s character makes him never act without aim. Since he agreed to Kyle, it means that he will definitely appear in Nurmengard.
However, Grindelwald has been imprisoned in Nurmengard for nearly seventy years. This place reminds him of his failure all the time. If Grindelwald wants to make a comeback, he will definitely not stay there anymore and will only stay far away. Far away.
But then it doesn’t make sense.
There is only one possibility, Grindelwald gave up, and naturally he didn’t care.
Professor McGonagall thought a lot, and at the same time she couldn’t help but look at Kyle.
One thing is that she did not just know what Kyle and Grindelwald said, but she had heard it from Dumbledore yesterday, more than once.
But neither she nor Dumbledore nor any of the other principals thought that
Kyle obviously just mentioned Nurmengard in his plan. Does it mean so much?
Oh, maybe Dumbledore himself should be able to hear what he said here, but it’s a pity that there is only one portrait of him in the principal’s office.
“Professor McGonagall——Professor McGonagall?”
Kyle’s voice woke her up, and she realized that she had been distracted just now.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing, what you said makes sense.” Professor McGonagall shook her head and said, “I guess your idea is the same as Albus’s, which is not to tell the Ministry of Magic about Grindelwald.”
“That’s right.” Kyle nodded, “Now it seems that he is probably just out for a spin when he is bored. There is no need to mobilize an army.”
Professor McGonagall was silent for a moment and nodded.
“Well, I must be crazy to agree to your suggestion.”
In fact, she had been thinking about this issue for a long time yesterday. She wanted to unconditionally trust Dumbledore’s judgment as before, but she could not turn a blind eye to the name Grindelwald.
But Kyle’s words helped her make up her mind, and the magic world really needed a good rest now.
“I have only one request.” She looked at Kyle and said seriously: “I hope you can keep me updated on Grindelwald.”
“No problem.” Kyle agreed quickly. The only thing left between him and Grindelwald was the Horcrux plan. Professor McGonagall already knew about it and there was nothing to hide.
“That’s good, don’t imitate Dumbledore, he is really good at keeping secrets.” Professor McGonagall couldn’t help but complain.
“Also, I heard that Wenda Rosier will come to Hogwarts later. Is this true?”
“This——”——I don’t know yet. “Kyle shook his head and said uncertainly: “Although Grindelwald did say so, he will ask Rozier to discuss the future matters with me.
“But I don’t know if he was talking about after the school holidays or before.”
“No matter when, you can’t let down your guard, it’s best to tell me as soon as you see her.

Professor McGonagall looked serious, “Remember, I’m not kidding. Wenda Rosier has done more terrifying things than Death Eaters. She is a ruthless and cunning witch.”
“I know very well, Professor McGonagall.” Kyle said, “I have seen her more than once before, so I will be careful.”
“That’s good,” said Professor McGonagall.
At this time, the originally empty corridor suddenly became lively.
First, two older wizards came over, followed by a group of seventh-year students, all with nervousness written all over their faces.
“The N.E.W.T. exam is about to start.” Professor McGonagall immediately put Grindelwald behind her, “I need to find Professor Marchbank again now. Remember what I said. If you meet Wenda Rosier, be sure to tell me.”
Professor McGonagall left quickly.
Kyle thought for a while, and did not continue to stay in the castle, but turned and walked downstairs.
Under normal circumstances, Hogwarts professors need to assist the Wizard Examination Administration. After all, in addition to the most important N.E.W.T. and 0.W.L., students in the other five grades also have to take final exams.
The school professors are mainly responsible for the remaining five grades.
But Kyle is different-mainly the former professor of the ancient runes course, who did too well in some aspects. Not only has she never participated in any exams, but the people of the Examination Administration have completely ignored her.
Although the professor has changed to Kyle now, this tradition has not changed.
Kyle doesn’t have to take the exams now, nor does he have to be responsible for the exams. He is the most relaxed person in the whole castle.
He decided to take this time to improve his photo album.
Kyle walked out of the castle. Hagrid was separating a large group of hippogriffs on the field outside.
“Oh, the exam has already started, right?” After seeing Kyle, he waved his hand vigorously, and quickly caught a hippogriff that was a little impatient.
“They are all arrogant little guys—-” Hagrid said, but his expression looked a little happy.
Before meeting the real dragon, he liked this magical animal the most—-oh, and the three-headed dog Fluffy and the blasting-tailed skrewt.
“The content of the exam is to let them fly around the school grounds. What do you think–.”
“What grade?”
“Fifth grade.” Hagrid said, “What do you think? I originally wanted to leave them for the third grade, but Professor Marchbank thinks that this magical animal is more suitable for 0.W.L..”
“I think this is good too.” Kyle nodded.
The Hippogriff is a 3X-level magical creature, which is just right for the fifth grade.
In fact, there is already a standard taming process for this magical creature. As long as you follow it, there will usually be no big problems, even if it is really placed in the third grade.
After arranging the Hippogriff, Hagrid hurried back to the Forbidden Forest.
He also needs to prepare for the exams of other grades, such as the seventh-year Night Thestrals.
This is also the easiest question to guess in N.E.W.T., and for this year’s graduates, this question is simpler than before.
Because after the war against the Death Eaters, most of them can see the Night Thestrals.
Kyle took a look at Hehe and turned back to his cabin.
