Chapter 45: Compass of Destiny: Music (Updated! Please Read On!)

Some are happy and some are sad.

Quirrell began to wander around the floors of Hogwarts, from the first floor to the second floor, from the second floor to the third floor, from the third floor to the fourth floor...

Even the students noticed that Quirrell was looking for something, but when they asked him, he would stammer and say, "This, this is just a daily patrol."

The Weasley twins were very interested in the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. Some said that there was something wrapped in his heavy scarf, maybe it was a treasure given by a prince of a small country.

But the twins speculated: Professor Quirrell wore a scarf, perhaps to hide the fact that he was bald!

This rumor spread, and the students passing by couldn't help but look at Quirrell, especially his head wrapped in a scarf.

Quirrell felt more uneasy.

Not only because he couldn't find the Gua snake, but the way these students looked at him was very wrong.

In his mind, Voldemort kept cursing, asking him to look more in dark and secluded corners.

"Professor Quirrell."

A serious voice came from behind him. Quirrell came to the fourth floor and was wandering in front of the trophy display room.

Quirrell trembled violently and turned to look at Professor McGonagall: "Hello, Professor McGonagall."

Professor McGonagall said solemnly: "Our teaching committee received a report from Administrator Filch, saying that you secretly stole the students' talismans. Is this true?"

Quirrel denied it without thinking: "No, I didn't!"

He only punished students to take off their talismans during class and picked up the talismans dropped by students on the road. He never stole them.

Professor McGonagall looked disappointed: "Administrator Filch handed over the evidence that you stole the amulet, saying that you have a box with hundreds of amulets hidden in it. How do you explain it?"

Quirrel's face flushed: "That, those are all picked up by me, I have a use for them!"

"Picked up, useful?"

Professor McGonagall's expression was cold, "Then why did you destroy those useful amulets?"

Professor Quirrell's heart skipped a beat, "This is, this is..."

McGonagall didn't want to listen to his explanation anymore, and said indifferently: "You told me it's useless, now come with me to the teaching committee and explain it to other professors."

...

The news that Professor Quirrell was put in detention spread throughout Hogwarts like a whirlwind.

The reason was that the Defense Against the Dark Arts class that was supposed to be taught by Professor Quirrell in the afternoon was replaced by another professor.

A little wizard asked the substitute professor where Professor Quirrell was, and the substitute professor bluntly said that he was put in detention.

It seems that Quirrell's popularity in Hogwarts is not very good.

"This is the first time I heard that a professor would be put in detention. What did Quirrell do that angered everyone?" Draco asked curiously.

Lin Xia also wanted to know, so she gave Draco a tip.

Draco's eyes lit up, and he quickly left his seat and rushed back when there were still ten minutes left in the class.

He spent a silver Sickle to buy some information that was said to be very reliable.

"I found out that the twin Weasley seniors said that it was the administrator Filch who reported Quirrell. The reason for the report was that Quirrell stole the students' talismans!"

As soon as these words came out, the students who gathered around were in an uproar.

"No wonder the talismans I bought always disappeared for no reason. It turned out that they were stolen by Professor Quirrell!"

"I heard that he likes to punish those students who wear talismans in class, and confiscates the talismans if they can't answer the questions!"

"Why did he steal the talismans?"

"He must want to resell the stolen talismans to us, this black-hearted professor!"

The two seniors were very after-sales-oriented. After the afternoon spells class, the seniors came in person and told Draco about the latest developments.

"Professor Quirrell was released again, because he proved that he did not steal. He picked up the talismans from the ground and confiscated them from the classroom, and there were hundreds of them!"

Even so, the little wizard was still very uneasy.

They were worried that their talismans would be taken away by Professor Quirrell for various reasons.

Although Quirrell did not sell them, he was "ruthless in destroying talismans"!

George said: "The school should respond, you don't have to worry."

Oliver nodded and said: "We have received some news, but we are not sure yet. There should be an announcement tonight."

That night, while eating in the Great Hall, Professor McGonagall knocked on the glass and asked all the students to look over.

She solemnly announced the latest regulations of the school.

"The school will open a grocery store to supply a batch of talismans to students. If students want to buy other things, they can leave a message and the grocery store will purchase them according to the situation."

As soon as this rule came out, the business of reselling talismans in Hogsmeade Village was completely ruined.

At the same time, Professor McGonagall also solemnly stated that the conduct of all teachers will be assessed, and any behavior of stealing or harming students' belongings will be warned.

"According to school regulations, Professor Quirrell has been given a serious warning. If there is a second time, he will be expelled.

At the same time, the school will also set up a submission mailbox, you can submit anonymously and expose the professor's bad behavior."

Professor McGonagall said: "Hogwarts is a place for teaching and educating people, not a hotbed for cultivating scum. Children, I encourage and support you to speak the truth."

After announcing this news, she also said: "The school will launch a campaign to clean up poisonous insects and snakes in the near future. Everyone should take good care of their pets to avoid being cleaned up by the school."

The little wizards were obviously relieved.

Lin Xia was about to retract her gaze when she suddenly caught sight of Snape standing in the audience.

The compass in her mind slowly turned, but it stopped at the "Rhythm" column that had never appeared before.

Lin Xia was slightly startled. She actually heard Professor Snape's voice!

"That disgusting, bug-like Quirrell was not expelled from school. He did not steal!

It's so dirty. I have to deal with his scarf. When he was questioning, his scarf was soaked by his crying. Professor McGonagall asked me to go to his office and get him a new scarf.

That old scarf was full of dirt. Touching it would be a stain on my hands! I should have destroyed it on the spot instead of throwing it away in the garbage dump!"

Lin Xia returned to the Hufflepuff common room, found the map of Hogwarts, and checked where the garbage dump was.

A lark flew in from outside and landed on Draco's shoulder.

Draco opened the note on the bird's leg and was stunned.

"Lin Xia, Harry and the others are injured and missed the whole afternoon of classes. They are lying in the infirmary."

Lin Xia frowned: "Did they go to explore the edge of the forbidden forest at noon and get injured?"

Draco nodded: "Yes, it is said that they encountered the devil vine.

If Hermione hadn't been smart and thought of the book saying that fluorescent flashes can be used to disperse the devil vine, they would have been trapped for a long time. It is said that Ron and Harry's legs were broken."

At noon, they went back to their respective common rooms to preview, but unexpectedly Hermione finally went to the edge of the forbidden forest.

Lin Xia looked down and found that the location of the infirmary was not far from the garbage dump, so she said: "Let's go visit them together."

She deliberately brought the White Fairy out, and went to the garbage dump before going to the infirmary.
