Chapter 85: The Professor Who Never Washes His Hair Is Afraid of Going Bald
Professor Quirrell is bald;
As he was hospitalized, the news spread throughout Hogwarts as quickly as possible.
Many students went to visit Professor Quirrell, and there was even a long queue outside the school hospital. I don't know whether it was to visit the doctor or simply to satisfy their curiosity.
After it was confirmed that Quirrell was really bald, public opinion changed overnight. Not only was he not ridiculed on a large scale, but he was sympathized with by many students.
"I don't know what's so funny about being bald?" Ravenclaw student Robert Hilliard said seriously: "I'm not bald, but I will never laugh at Professor Quirrell."
Robert, who is only in seventh grade, is the best student in Ravenclaw's class. It is said that he is still teaching himself Muggle computer programming... but his hairline is a bit high.
"Fred and George, they really did something wrong... They shouldn't do this to a bald teacher." Ron criticized the twins at the Gryffindor table.
Mr. Weasley is bald, and their family seems to have a genetic gene for baldness, which makes Ron feel very sympathetic to Quirrell.
"Quirrell just doesn't want everyone to see that he has no hair. What's wrong with that?!"
It was rare for Malfoy to stand up and sternly rebutted Pansy who was laughing at Quirrell.
Malfoy definitely didn't speak for Quirrell because he was taken to divination by his mother when he was seven years old, and the old witch calculated that he would be bald in his twenties...
In fact, most British men are bald, even wizards.
Even if you use hair growth spells and hair growth agents, you must have hair follicles. If the hair follicles are necrotic, baldness is also a terminal disease for wizards!
As a veterinarian, Luofu explained the causes of baldness to the little wizards from a professional perspective:
That is that the water quality in Britain is too hard. When bathing, the chemicals produced by this water and shampoo will clog the pores on the hair, causing hair loss.
Everyone suddenly realized that it turned out to be a water problem. Doesn't that mean that baldness can be prevented by not washing your hair? !
Is this why Professor Snape doesn't like washing his hair... is he afraid of going bald?
So, when Professor Snape was in class, he suddenly found a group of oily-headed students in the classroom. He deducted ten points from Harry because... he didn't wash his hair.
The little wizards also held a "Snape Imitation Contest" where everyone voted to see who had the greasiest hair. Unfortunately, Professor Snape only won second place in the "Snape Imitation Contest".
In the Potions class, many students also discovered that Professor Snape seemed to be injured. Someone had removed a handful of his shiny hair.
Although it is only a handful, the bareness is obvious.
Are there any wizards in Hogwarts who dare to fight Professor Snape?
Who is so brave!
But what's even more brave is that someone among the little wizards has posted a bounty mission:
Help Professor Snape wash his hair and get a hundred galleons reward.
The bounty for Quirrell was first offered, and then for Snape, both were still one hundred galleons. Although they didn't know who was so rich, many young wizards were excited.
Professor Quirrell, who was originally very popular, quickly became obsolete and lost his attraction to young wizards. Everyone turned their interest to Professor Snape.
…
…
In February, Quidditch began.
Professor Quirrell seems to have followed Professor Trelawney's advice and has never watched a Quidditch match since that injury.
Rove didn't have to worry about being cursed by him again, but even so, he didn't participate in the game. He was still a substitute, sitting in the spectator stand waving a towel.
Cedric performed well. He caught the Golden Snitch in two consecutive games, helping Hufflepuff House stabilize its position at the top of the Quidditch Cup.
Slytherin relies on its outstanding "physical talent" and currently ranks second in record, with the Gryffindor Quidditch team only better than Ravenclaw.
Wood is obsessed. Other teams train at most twice a week, but he trains three times a week, and he has to train extra on weekends.
The biggest benefit is that the twins have less time to play pranks, making Hogwarts a lot quieter.
But it's of no use. Gryffindor's Seeker skills are not good enough. The current total score is too far behind the top two, so there is only a theoretical possibility of winning the championship.
Professor McGonagall could only hope to find a good Seeker next school year.
As for Ravenclaw, the good news is that they are the earliest team to prepare for the 92-93 season.
The bad news is that they are currently completely defeated, and it looks like the victory won't be this year, or maybe even next year.
Rove heard from Shirley that even the bronze door knocker at the entrance to the Ravenclaw lounge was updated with a new question, asking about the Ravenclaw Quidditch team's losing streak so far.
Captain Roger Davis didn't dare return to the dugout all night.
…
…
Compared to the Quidditch game, Rolf has been busy monitoring Quirrell recently. He often uses skinchangers to invade the body of the evil bird, and then flies to the school hospital to see if he can sneak into the secret room.
But Quirrell has always been honest.
Therefore, in order to determine whether Voldemort had gone to the Chamber of Secrets, Rolf went to Myrtle's girls' bathroom alone at the end of get out of class.
Pushing open the door of the bathroom, what you see is a dilapidated room. Under the large mirror covered with stains, there is a row of stone pools with peeling surfaces and covered with moss.
The floor was wet, and a few candles were burning low on their brackets, emitting a dim light that made the floor eerie.
On a bare wall, seven blood-red words were scrawled: "Miserable!"
Rolf stood by the sink and checked it carefully. On the side of a copper faucet, he found a small snake engraved.
This is the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets, but Rolf did not intend to use Parseltongue to open the passage. If he went down rashly, he might run into Voldemort.
Although he would not go down, he could ask others. Some people squatted in the bathroom for almost 24 hours a day.
Rolf walked towards a toilet cubicle. There were slight noises coming from it, as if someone was eating in the cubicle, and there was also the sound of water.
Rolf knocked on the door of the cubicle, and the sound disappeared immediately. After a while, a faint female voice came:
"This place cannot be used! Change to another bathroom!!"
Rolf knocked on the door again, and a short and fat girl ghost floated out. It was a melancholy and gloomy face, half covered by straight long hair and thick, pearl-colored glasses.
Myrtle's gloomy face suddenly turned into a smile after seeing Rolf. She was a little surprised and said:
"Scamander... why are you here?"
"I heard from the fat monk that you were sick, so I came to treat you." Rolf smiled.
"The last time I went to see you, you said you wouldn't treat ghosts." Myrtle said with a stern face.
"At that time, my medical skills were not good enough to cure the ghost's chest pain. I went home for Christmas recently and learned a lot from my grandfather." Rolf smiled and said, "Does it still hurt recently?"
"It hurts!" Myrtle's tears fell quickly from her transparent eyes.
"They all bullied me, especially Peeves..." Myrtle said with a crying voice, "I also have feelings, you know, even though I'm dead."
"In addition to ghosts, have wizards come here to disturb you?" Rolf asked, "For example, sneaking in, it looks very strange..."
"Yes."
"Who?"
"You!"
"..."
