The auditorium was very noisy.

The freshmen were lined up in a long line, waiting for Professor McGonagall to get the division hat back.

Other senior students sat on the long tables of their respective colleges, chatting or greeting their acquaintances and younger brothers and sisters among the freshmen.

But at this time, someone had noticed that the long table that only professors could sit on was two more people who should not belong there.

Ron pointed to Harry and Hermione at the old man sitting next to Sherlock, with one eye with a magical fake eye.

"That's Moody, a crazy-eyed man. He used to be an Auror from the Ministry of Magic. Not long ago, he retired. My father told us about this. He has a weird temper. He has no friends in the Ministry, and most people are a little afraid of him. But he is indeed a very powerful Auror. My father said that in the darkest years of the entire magic world, he was already the trump card among Aurors."

Harry looked at the one-eyed old man who was not tall but looked quite fierce. From the outside, he looked really not a person who was easy to get along with.

But he seemed to have a good relationship with Professor Forrest, and the two of them were talking about something.

Just as Harry was about to look away from Moody, he suddenly saw a familiar figure from the corner of his eyes, with a bright and disgusting smile on his face, standing behind Sherlock as he watched him chat with Moody.

"I don't know that this retired Auror is here to teach us something this semester..."

Just when Ron was still confused, Harry suddenly interrupted him.

"Wait Ron! Look there!"

Hermione and Ron followed Harry's gaze and saw the person he wanted them to see at first glance.

They all grew their mouths and shouted in dismay.

"Sister Shilk!"

After Sherlock came back to his senses from the beginning, he immediately figured out why Shilk appeared here.

"You really gave me a surprise." He said helplessly.

Shilk leaned against the back of the chair, with a smile on his lips.

"Why didn't I see where the joy is in your face?"

Sherlock glared at her and asked.

"When did you go to Dumbledore for a job?"

"Just not long after buying the house, Dumbledore told me that a position happened to be vacant in the castle."

"So you replaced Victor, the original professor of arithmetic divination,?"

"Are you unhappy?"

Shilk noticed something was wrong from Sherlock's expression, and her voice became a little cautious.

Sherlock sighed and touched Hilk's head.

"I'm not unhappy, but Hogwarts is really not a safe place, especially this year, I'm very happy that you can be a professor here, but I should have said it to me in advance."

The corners of Shilk's mouth obviously rose from upwards to downwards, but this time she did not break her head away from Sherlock's hand.

"I said it in advance, don't you let me come?"

Sherlock thought for a moment.

"Maybe there will be this consideration. If Dumbledore really can't find anyone, I can also work part-time in arithmetic divination class."

"You know nothing about divination!"

"I can read the textbook directly if I know how to read."

"You will teach bad students!"

"The same is true for normal divination classes, and students are learning them too."

"This is a misleading child!"

"This is not very important knowledge anyway, your safety is much more important than this."

"Then why can you come here? I can't!"

"I can face these dangers, and it doesn't matter if you can't."

"I'll say again that I'm not a child, I'm one year older than you! You don't have to take care of me like you take care of your children!"

Shilk's voice became louder and louder, which had attracted the attention of other professors on the long table. Even Dumbledore, who was sitting in the middle, turned to look here.

Sherlock looked at Shilk's stubborn face, stunned for a while, and finally shook his head and smiled.

"Okay, maybe my thoughts are indeed a problem, I apologize to you. But I still want to emphasize it again. From this year on, Hogwarts will become a little different. You must pay attention to what you should pay attention to."

Shilk did not look at him again. She was obviously still angry in her heart and just said coldly.

"I will know it myself."

The professors around them all had a deep understanding and did not pay attention to them deliberately, but they all had meaningful smiles on their faces, and they were secretly observing from the corner of their eyes.

And in the audience, some students also noticed the appearance of Shilk.

She did not wear a hood, and was wearing a dark green robe. She sat in the middle of a professor who was not young and could be called the old witch and the old witch.

When the students were talking to the newcomer, blindfolded their eyes with black ribbons, and the beautiful young witch was talking, Harry and the others also saw something wrong.

"Sister Shilk and Professor Forrest seem to have a quarrel." Harry said worriedly.

He and Shilk talked to him once before the World Cup final. Because he was willing to have a good relationship with Sherlock, Shilk did not show that cold attitude, which made Harry feel very good about her.

Ron's head full of question marks.

"Aren't they okay when they first met? Why did they quarrel just by quarreling? It must be Sister Shilk who made the professor angry!"

Hermione glared at him.

"It's obvious that Professor Forrest said something that made Sister Shilk angry. Did you seem to apologize in the end if the professor didn't see it?"

After they discussed for a while, the branch ceremony officially began. The branch hat that Professor McGonagall placed on the four-foot stool began to sing the branch song that was different every year.

The freshmen were all wearing hats and were assigned to different colleges. Then the dinner began, and Dumbledore also introduced the new professor to the students this year.

"Because Professor Victor of the arithmetic divination class wants to try a new life, this year's professor seat will be a beautiful lady, Miss Vera Hilk. As a former employee of the Mysterious Affairs Department of the Ministry of Magic of Germany, I believe she can teach you more knowledge."

"At the same time, in order to deal with the convening of a large event, we will suspend the Quidditch College Cup this semester, and invite Alasto Moody to serve as the castle guard. He is mainly responsible for the safety of the castle and will also assist Filch in strictly enforcing school rules. I hope some students will pay attention."

"Finally, I'm happy to announce that the Trio Championship, which has been suspended for a century, will be reconvened at Hogwarts after Halloween this year!"
