Hogwarts: I have graduated before the system came

It's exactly eleven o'clock.

Douglas first said a few words briefly. During this period, the flashes continued, and the reporters had no record of rushing to write.

Because at the beginning, Douglas asked Slane to tell the reporters that at the end of the day, the speech will be distributed to everyone for reference.

At 11:30, amidst the anxiety of the fans, Douglas finally finished his narration.

The Hogwarts students in the crowd were whispering aside:

"Father, I have already said that Professor Holmes needs to speak a few simple words. It must be difficult."

......

Reporter questioning session.

The initial questions are relatively normal, such as:

Reporter: "Under what circumstances did you write "Magic Chef"?"

Doug: "As you all know, I'm a Hufflepuff..."

Reporter: "How did you come up with so many ideas?"

Doug: "This is thanks to the Hogwarts library for helping me..."

Reporter: "How did you come up with so many ideas?"

Doug: "This is thanks to the Hogwarts library for helping me..."

Reporter: "Did you choose to serve at Hogwarts because you ran out of inspiration? I remember that you didn't update for a long time before that."

Doug: "Good question, I actually think traveling in reality is more interesting than taking risks in stories..."

Reporter: "Professor Holmes, I'm Grisel Hotz, an advice columnist for the Daily Prophet, and I'm in charge of the emotional column.

I am more curious about your emotional experience, after all, your story also has various emotional stories..."

Doug: "Ms. Hotz is very glad to meet you, but you may be disappointed. I don't have any emotional experience, but this does not prevent me from observing other people's emotions..."

During this period, Douglas has been paying attention to Rita Skeeter's movements, and saw a beautiful quill, which has been recording in the notebook in her hand.

When she heard Douglas answer Grisel Hotz's question, she seemed to have discovered a new world. She shook her weird curly hair and asked with a proud face:

"Professor Holmes, can I understand that you, like Gilderoy Lockhart, are secretly using memory magic to peek at other people's memories?"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the surrounding people changed drastically.

With a faint smile on Douglas' face, the fish finally took the bait.

That question was originally thrown out on purpose by him to lure Rita to ask, and he didn't want to hand over the initiative to the other party.

"Oh, is reporter Skeeter complimenting me?

After all, everyone knows that my first novel was written when I was still in my first year at Hogwarts, so I could deal with adult wizards at that time... Hehe! "

People around laughed when they heard what Douglas said.

But Rita Skeeter didn't seem to hear Douglas' sarcasm. Her quill wrote on the paper: Holmes admitted that he had mastered some kind of evil black magic when he was in the first grade. Stories from the mind of a wizard...

Rita continued to ask: "As far as I know, you used the same title and pseudonym to publish a set of novels in the Muggle world that are more magnificent than the version in the wizarding world. Appreciate stories less than Muggles?"

Douglas: "I didn't expect you to be so interested in the Muggle world, and to read novels written by Muggles, which made me feel very relieved.

In fact, I personally feel that the content of the Muggle version has a certain misleading effect on wizards who are not yet adults. After all, not everyone knows which magic is real and which is fictional magic...

More importantly, I respect those predecessors who contributed to modern magic, and if using fictional magic in the story is disrespectful to them...

At the same time, I am a law-abiding wizard, and I firmly support the "International Confederation of Wizards' Statute of Secrecy..."

The quill wrote: Professor Holmes is a wizard, but it seems that the other party prefers to be a Muggle. He thinks that wizard children have low intelligence and cannot distinguish reality from fiction...

Slane stared at Rita unkindly.

Rita seemed very satisfied with Douglas' answer, and then continued to ask without giving the other reporters any time to ask questions:

"Then whose story are you going to write about in your next book... Oh, sorry, who should you be writing the story on, Albus Dumbledore? Minerva McGonagall?

I think they are all your colleagues, you must have many opportunities to know their stories, right? "

Douglas sneered, you finally asked this question, if you don't ask me again, I should take the initiative to say it.

"Ah, actually not.

I'm very happy that you can ask this question.

I already have ideas for my next novel.

I plan to write a story about an unregistered Animagus witch who lurks in various countries and fights for her country all her life.

She is cruel and affectionate, quick-witted and brave, and can always turn danger into safety in times of crisis, and often meets romantic love, and there is never a shortage of handsome men around her...

What does Reporter Skeeter think her Animagus is safest for?

Actually I think the beetles are nice... what do you think? "

Rita Skeeter grabbed the quill she was talking nonsense when she heard Douglas's last words.

Looking directly at Douglas, Douglas also looked at her with a smile.

Other wizards around are talking about Douglas' new book, and it seems that everyone has a disagreement about the fact that the protagonist is a witch.

Rita Skeeter smiled awkwardly:

"I think this kind of novel may not be very exciting in terms of the story compared to Mr.'s previous books..."

Douglas shook his head and said with a smile:

"I think it's going to be exciting and interesting, and Skeeter is going to love it...

In fact, I also want to invite reporter Skeeter to be my new novel consultant, to monitor whether I have stolen other people's memories to write novels, of course, I can also give some opinions at any time, after all, it is a female protagonist... "

Other reporters around were keenly aware of the delicate atmosphere between the two, especially Skeeter's attitude, but they didn't understand why.

Skeeter's face froze, she can now be sure that the other party definitely knows the secret.

She just wants to stop the topic now, lest Douglas say more and make people think of her.

Then after the signing session is over, I will find the other party in private.

"Professor Holmes, I think we can discuss this matter in private..."

Fans around seem to be very repulsed by Douglas' arrangement of Rita as a fiction consultant.

"She is a novel consultant, so the protagonist also needs to have three gold teeth (Skeeter has three gold teeth in his mouth)."

"Has Professor Holmes been deceived by the other party?"

"Uncle, you underestimate Professor Holmes too much...I think the professor must want to bribe the other party. After all, the reports written by Rita are not very comfortable for the parties involved."

PS: Happy New Year everyone!

Reminder: You can't talk about water during Chinese New Year. If you really want to talk, just say "too hot!"
