Chapter 177 Newt and Albus' Dispute
After Harry and the others left, Jiang Li hurried to look for Alfie, she was very afraid that he would like to run around like Teddy, who used to scold Newt and New York very much.
But to her surprise, Alfie didn't run around, it was quietly staying under Draco's coat hem, its four little paws clutching his trouser legs tightly.
She bent down and hugged it, trying to pull it off Draco's pant leg.
As a result, Alfie grabbed Draco's trouser legs tightly and refused to let go. If she pulled it down again, Draco's trousers might suffer, so he had to let go of Alfie.
"It seems to like me." Draco proudly brushed his bangs on his forehead, then bent down and hugged Alfie easily.
Alfie was in his arms, raised two little paws towards him, and slowly spread them out, holding a handful of gleaming Galleons in the center of the paws, it blinked dark eyes at Draco.
"Ahem, did you give this to me, Alfie!" Draco said in surprise, he immediately coughed twice, straightened his body, concealed his joy, and put on an arrogant look that should have been like this .
"No, this is what it gave back to you, maybe you feel that you are okay." Jiang Li pointed to his pocket, mercilessly breaking his beautiful thoughts.
"No, Li, quickly take the wallet out of my pocket! I don't have any free time."
"Which pocket did you put it in?"
"I don't remember, you can touch it!"
After Draco finished talking, he received a blank stare from Jiang Li.
Jiang Li put her hands into Draco's left and right pockets, which looked like she was hugging Draco from a distance.
Draco lowered his head to look at the girl's long black and smooth hair, so close that he could smell the faint fragrance of roses on her body, the corners of his mouth raised uncontrollably.
Of course he did it on purpose, it's not difficult to free one hand, just hold Alfie with one hand with the hand holding the paper bag, but he doesn't!
"Look, it's empty! You've lost all your money!" Jiang Li had already found his wallet and showed him his own empty wallet.
Seeing her distance from him, Draco couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed, thinking that next time he would put the wallet in the lining of his coat and let her find it. As for the reason, he weighed it gently in his arms Alfie.
Seeing the disappointed expression on his face, Jiang Li thought he was sad because Alfie stole his Galleon again, so he patted him on the shoulder reassuringly.
"You gotta get used to it. Alfie's father once emptied a bank in New York and almost got Newt and his friends arrested as robbers."
When they returned to Hogwarts, Alfie still hugged Draco's arm tightly, unwilling to separate from him, which shocked Jiang Li greatly, so he had to ask Draco to bring Alfie back to Slytherin bedroom.
Thinking that the young masters and ladies in Slytherin were richer, Jiang Li started to have a headache when he saw Alfie lying on Draco's arms.
After parting from Draco, she took the bag of lemon drops and planned to go to Dumbledore.
"What on earth are you thinking? You don't care about Black's grievances, and you actually went to bail for the murderous Death Eaters!"
Just as Jiang Li walked down the spiral staircase in Dumbledore's principal's office, he heard Newt's questioning voice.
"Newt, Sirius had already been convicted by the Ministry of Magic, and I had bailed Chambers at that time. Unless there is sufficient evidence to prove that Sirius is innocent, I couldn't bail two people at the same time, but I couldn't find evidence. .” Dumbledore calmly explained to Newt.
"So, when you let an innocent good man lose his best friend, be framed to have his friend killed, and tortured by dementors every day, you go to protect a Death Eater who brutally killed many of your colleagues, Dumbledore, I misread you, didn't I?" Newt's voice gradually turned from excitement to a calm almost disappointed.
"Someone promised me to be Voldemort's internal response, on the premise that I will protect Chambers no matter what the situation. Newt, you can't think of everything too idealistically."
According to Dumbledore's words, Jiang Li could quickly guess that the person who agreed to be the internal response should be Snape.
"I want to clean up that child's grievances. He had a very difficult life. In order to protect his godson, he turned into a dog. In the weather of minus five degrees, he swam across the ocean, ate dead rats, and turned over the trash can. , I haven’t seen such sincere feelings for many, many years, you know, Jacob and Theseus are gone..."
Newt's voice was getting lower and lower, and he could feel a deep sense of powerlessness when he said those two familiar names.
"What do you want me to do, Newt?"
"Assist me and hire me as the professor of Hogwarts' Protection of Magical Beasts class. I need an identity to stay at Hogwarts and keep an eye on that mouse."
"Of course there is no problem. No one is more suitable for this position than you. I have invited you so many times, and even the invitation to become the head of Hufflepuff was rejected by you." Dumbledore walked out from the inside, Seeing Jiang Li standing in front of Fox's cage, "Oh, Li, you're back."
"Albus, your candy, in my country, it is illegal to employ child labor." Jiang Li fished out a few from the sugar bag, and then threw the bag into Dumbledore's arms.
"You're here. I'm going to find you after I've made an agreement with Dumbledore." Newt also came out from inside.
To be honest, Jiang Li has not fully adapted to his current appearance of an old man. Who can accept that the man he likes suddenly becomes an old man? I heard that he has a grandson. I don’t know if he is more like Newt or More like Tina.
"Actually, your Charms class, Herbology, Defense Against the Dark Arts, and Potions classes are all very good, and you can do any of them." Dumbledore looked at Newt with some regret, "There is a boy in Hufflepuff. The child is very similar to you when you were young, kind and gentle and exceptionally outstanding."
"Cedric?" Jiang Li said the name without thinking, after Dumbledore said these characteristics.
"Correct."
"I think I'll have a chance to get to know this kid. The dean is such a hassle, and Sprout is doing a great job." Newt didn't want to do any tiring work at all, and this kind of idle work was very suitable for him.
"Looking forward to your Protection of Magical Creatures class, Professor Scamander." Jiang Li peeled off a lemon drop and handed it to Newt.
Newt took it naturally and stuffed it into his mouth. He suddenly looked at Jiang Li: "Where's the lamb chops? Credence told me that you grilled lamb chops, and Aberforth brought you some, mine Where are the lamb chops?"
Jiang Li smiled awkwardly, how could she forget about Newt, it turned out that it was meant for Newt, it was all because Credence and Aberforth didn't make it clear to her!
"Sorry, Newt, I gave it to a friend."
