The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 316: Human Evaporation

After the Easter break, Hogwarts students were stunned to discover that their Defence Against the Dark Arts professor was missing?

The seventh-grade students in the Advanced Defense Against the Dark Arts class were the first to discover this problem. They were puzzled why Professor Smith didn't show up in class, and the student council president had to tell Professor McGonagall about it.

However, what surprised them most was that Professor McGonagall didn't know what was going on.

The disappearance of Professor Smith spread to the whole school like a plague.

Everyone was talking about it, wondering where Professor Smith went, why didn't he come and teach everyone?

Most students think Professor Smith may have resigned early?

After all, there was Professor Broad's case before last semester. It's just, why didn't Professor Smith inform everyone about this in advance?

Professor McGonagall was also unable to contact the missing colleague and had to tell Dumbledore about it.

Dumbledore, who was dealing with the problem of the Philosopher's Stone, hurried back to school to understand the situation.

Hogwarts Castle, Headmaster's Room on the eighth floor.

Professor McGonagall was speaking to Dumbledore about the current situation.

"The owl I sent couldn't contact Rowena, and he didn't say where he was going?" Professor McGonagall frowned deeply. Although she was reluctant to admit it, Professor Defence Against the Dark Arts was indeed magic It is also an indisputable fact that one of the most dangerous positions in the world needs to be replaced every year.

"Didn't he tell anyone to go there?" Dumbledore asked, listening to Professor McGonagall's report.

"No." Professor McGonagall said: "Mr. Anderson and Sister McDougall have more contact with Rowena. I have asked the three of them, but none of them know where Smith is going."

"When did he not show up at the school?" Dumbledore asked again.

"Ten days ago." Professor McGonagall didn't pay attention to this. After all, professors also need to take a vacation, and it is impossible to stay in school even during the vacation. "By the way, Rowena's family is also looking for him everywhere. the whereabouts."

Professor McGonagall put the Daily Prophet in front of the Headmaster.

Dumbledore put his hands on the table and fell into a brief silence. In fact, Dumbledore didn't have a good solution, mainly because Rowena had been missing for too long, and some tracking magic could not even take effect.

"Let's try to find the news of Rowena first, if there is really no result..." Dumbledore glanced at the missing person notice in the Daily Prophet, "I'll think of other ways!"

The professors at Hogwarts are very busy, and they don't have time to investigate this matter, let alone find Rowena, and Dumbledore needs to be busy with too many things now, and there is no time for it at all. open.

"What about Defence Against the Dark Arts?" Professor McGonagall asked.

"You can ask Severus to help replace the class, or..." Dumbledore's words suddenly stopped, and he looked at the fireplace in the headmaster's room, where a green flame was rising, and a figure came out of the flame.

"You came just in time, Bud!" Dumbledore greeted the visitor with a smile.

"I heard that Rowena is missing and our old buddy Gerber is going around looking for him. He asked me to come to Hogwarts and see what's going on. Gerber's not doing well, you You know, Rowena is almost his most optimistic junior." Professor Broad said helplessly: "Half a month ago, I had a letter exchange with Rowena, how could I have disappeared for no reason."

"I don't know, we don't have any good news here, and we are still confused." Professor McGonagall greeted her former colleagues and said helplessly, "Rowena left Hogg during the Easter holiday. Watts, no one knows where he's going."

This matter is really sensitive, the position of professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts is not very popular,

Now that another one is missing, Professor McGonagall is even a little worried about scaring off other applicants. What if I can't find a professor?

"By the way, Bud, I want to ask you for something!" Dumbledore said suddenly: "Can you come back and help..."

"No, the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor is too evil. I even wonder if Rowena's disappearance is related to the damn curse." Professor Broad simply rejected Dumbledore's invitation and laughed at himself, " Fortunately, last year I ran a lot more quickly, so I didn't have any bad luck."

Professor McGonagall frowned, but she had to admit that this was the luckiest Defense Against the Dark Arts professor in recent decades.

"No, I just want you to come back as a substitute. I have found the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor next semester." Dumbledore reminded kindly: "If you need to investigate the matter of Rowena, you might stay at the school. Any useful clues can be found."

"Substitute class... Okay!" Professor Broad stroked his beard and agreed: "Just two months."

The disappearance of Rowena Smith attracted the attention of the magic world. The Smith family offered a high reward, and even used a lot of methods, but still could not find his whereabouts, as if the whole world had evaporated.

"The prophecy failed."

Nicole LeMay looked at the crystal that had not changed at all, shook his head and said, "I think... the person you are looking for may already be dead!"

Without a doubt, this is the worst news Dumbledore has heard so far.

"died?"

"The dead have no future, and they don't need a future." Nicole Lemay explained, "Of course, it is also possible that someone used strong magic on him to interfere with my prophecy, but it should be unlikely. "

"Really bad!"

Dumbledore was considering whether to tell that old friend about it!

He didn't know that, Gerber Smith had known about it for a long time, and knew the truth of the matter better. All he did was to disguise himself.

Of course, Rowena's death was also a heavy blow to the old man who was over 100 years old.

After Professor Broad took over from Smith, he gradually erased the remaining clues.

Mr. Mogg had turned Smith's skeleton into a stone and buried it forever in an unknown place deep in the Forbidden Forest. No one will ever know where Rowena Smith is, let alone find his body.

The students at Hogwarts were curious about what happened to Professor Smith, but everyone was relieved to hear that Professor Broad was acting as a substitute teacher. After all, this Professor Broad is also very reliable.

I don't know when there are new rumors in the school. The Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor was really cursed, so Professor Smith disappeared inexplicably.
