193 Pyramids and Photos
dissatisfied?
Karan blinked in confusion.
He couldn't understand why Professor Sprout had such an idea?Didn’t you ever expect that you would be facing such a conversation?
Professor Sprout seemed to see the doubts in his heart.
"You are not the first student with difficulty in sorting that I have encountered."
She still had a gentle smile on her face, and Karan thought she was trying to make the conversation seem less serious.
"Minerva was almost sorted into Ravenclaw, and Filius, your Charms professor, was also almost sorted into Gryffindor."
"To this day, they occasionally speculate about what would happen if they were assigned to the other's academy."
Karan blinked again.
It seems that Professor Sprout does not know her identity as a born closed-brained person, so she, like others, thinks that she is a rare student with difficulty in sorting.
But this did not become the reason for her to call Karan here specifically.
But Karan could already vaguely guess what she was going to say next.
"I noticed that your grades were pretty good last semester."
Professor Sprout was trying to sound tactful.
"But, Mr. Sangster, you seem to have done very little to help the college gain house points."
What she said was too kind.
In fact, Karan didn't even score a single point.
From an outsider's perspective, Karan had the option of being assigned to another college. It is hard not to think that he was silently resisting, that is to say, he was doing this on purpose.
Karan certainly did it on purpose, but he certainly wouldn't do it for this reason.
After all, he was the Hufflepuff who actively chose it.
It's just that few people know this.
After saying this, Professor Sprout continued: "In fact, if you feel that Hufflepuff House is not suitable for you, I can help you apply to the principal to change colleges."
"Can I still do this?"
Karan couldn't help but ask: "Shouldn't this kind of thing be decided by the Sorting Hat?"
"Because it's rare for students to have problems with sorting."
The smile on Professor Sprout's face froze. It could be seen that she seemed to have become more sure that Callan did not like Hufflepuff House, otherwise there would be no need for him to ask this question.
But she still said kindly: "Especially students like you who have difficulty in sorting will only appear once every 50 years or so. There are more people who are close to becoming students with difficulty in sorting, such as Philius. His sorting process It didn't last more than five minutes, not as long as Minerva."
Karan was keenly aware of the change in his dean's expression, and he did not intend to let the rising awkward atmosphere continue to spread.It would be better for this farce to end quickly.

"Actually, the only reason I didn't get more college points was because I was focused on helping Steve. He was my roommate and he was in a lot of the classes at the beginning of the semester. The performance was not very good.”
At the critical moment, Karan pushed Steve out in time.
Although this reason is not very sufficient, the house score is just an appearance. What Professor Sprout really cares about is whether Callan likes Hufflepuff House.
Judging from Karan's answer, it is clear that he has never been dissatisfied with the results of the sorting.
Professor Sprout finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As the headmaster of Hufflepuff, she certainly does not want students from her own house to be transferred to other houses. Even if this person has never received any house points, at least he is a genuine Hufflepuff.
After the conversation, Karan felt that the atmosphere around him became much more relaxed, although Professor Sprout was already trying to make the atmosphere less awkward.
"Are these from Professor Meadows?"
At this time, Karan noticed that among the things placed on the table, there was a photo of Meadows.
And Professor Sprout initially called these items gifts.
"Oh, yes, that's right."
Sprout pointed to some gadgets in the classroom, including some models of pyramids, and several mummy dolls walking blankly next to them.
She said helplessly: "Dorcas sent these from Egypt, saying they are local characteristics, but..."
When she said this, the mummies suddenly bumped into each other and couldn't get up no matter how hard they tried.
"I don't find these things very interesting. She shouldn't waste her money on them."
She shook her head and said, her tone full of elder concern.
Karan silently stared at the mummies who fell to the ground, and he suddenly thought of what happened last year.
After the unfavorable report on Meadows appeared in the magazine, Professor Sprout was the first to talk to Callan to plead for Meadows.
He remembers muttering "mind your own business" under his breath after Meadows discovered this.
But obviously, this isn't really nosy.
"Your relationship is so good." Karan said suddenly.
Professor Sprout seemed stunned for a moment. She silently lifted the mummies up one by one with her fingers, and then a smile appeared on her face.
"That's true, yes." She said gently.
"correct."
Professor Sprout seemed to have thought of something, and she suddenly asked: "I remember that you got an excellent grade in last year's Defense Against the Dark Arts course?"
Karan nodded silently. He knew what the other party meant. This was the only course in which he got excellent results, but he still didn't get any college points.
Crucially, the course was taught by Meadows.
"She's so crazy."
Obviously, Professor Sprout subconsciously blamed all this on Meadows.
"As a professor, how could you deliberately lower a student's score like this? I should have written a letter to her to talk about this matter."
Karan opened his mouth. Of course he knew that Meadows was not to blame for this incident.But in the end, he chose to remain silent. Anyway, it would not be him who would be unlucky then.
At this time, Professor Sprout noticed that Karan seemed to be very interested in the photo.
"Want to take a look?"
She handed over the photo, and Callan could see that she still hadn't given up on getting the two back together, even though Meadows was no longer teaching.
"Thanks."
Karan politely took the photo and looked at it silently in his hand.
In the photo, Meadows is standing in front of a huge pyramid, with a bright smile on her beautiful face.The breeze blew through her long hair, covering her forehead, but her eyes were still blinking brightly.
She seemed to do this on purpose, wanting her eyes to be fully exposed.
This would at least look better than closing it.
Karan couldn't help but think of this.
And this photo is also beautiful. Not only can it be used to record the place where Meadows may die, it is also suitable as a posthumous photo.
Karan believed that Meadows thought so too, which was why she tried so hard to smile so brightly.
There is no trace of sadness or determination in this photo.
Some are just a recent graduate who took a beautiful photo while traveling around the world.
But such a person unexpectedly has an almost pathological persistence, which even overrides her life.
In a sense, this is also unusual.
He is truly a lunatic.
Karan narrowed his eyes slightly and made this comment in his heart again.
When he raised his head again, the expression on his face had returned to normal.
He silently returned the photo, but did not leave.
"Can you tell me something?"
He suddenly asked another person in the room.
"Tell me about an experience that happened to Professor Meadows."
