Harry Potter's Catastrophe

Chapter 11: It’s hard to guess a child’s mind

Carney got up early the next morning, at seven o'clock. There was only one joint class in the morning, Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration class, which started at nine o'clock.

Without waking up the other roommates who were still sleeping, he took his wand and the Transfiguration textbook and went down the stairs. He found that some people were already reading on chairs in the lounge. I don’t know any of them, they must be senior students, but I do know one of them, that is Hermione.

He had no intention of saying hello to her, because he was hungry again and hurried to eat. He didn't want to disturb the top student from reading, and he seemed to be reading more seriously.

"Good morning! Carney." Hermione still found him, "Are you going to eat?"

"Um."

"That's right, let's go together." Hermione closed the book, "Where are the others?"

"They are sleeping!" Carney asked after leaving the lounge, "Do you know how to get to the restaurant?"

"You don't know how to go there alone?" Hermione rolled her eyes and walked in front, with a hint of confidence in her voice. "I walked through it last night and remembered it. Come with me."

"You're so awesome!" Carney could tell that this little girl was the type to get compliments. He couldn't see her expression as he followed Hermione, but she didn't talk on the way, which was a bit embarrassing.

"Hermione, haven't you memorized the textbook a long time ago? Why do you still need to read?" Carney found a topic.

"That is a book borrowed from the library by my senior sister. I have read all the books. At noon, I plan to go to the library to borrow a few more books to pass the time. I am afraid that my current knowledge is not enough. After all, I am not a child of a wizard family. I am now I know too little, and I don’t want to be dragged down too much by them. Can we go together?” Hermione started talking again.

"If you say so, I also want to go to the library and have a look." Carney also plans to go to the library and have a look. There are many first-grade textbooks that are not in the textbooks.

"Just the two of us?" Carney asked.

"You can ask the boys later. You boys and I haven't seen anyone else except you. Today is the first lesson of school. I don't want the academy to have points deducted on the first day of school..."

Hahaha, why am I talking so much...

After breakfast, they didn't see Harry Neville and his friends appear, so Hermione suggested going to the classroom first.

Sure enough, the almighty Hermione had already found out the location of the Transfiguration classroom, and even other courses.

All you need to do is listen to her chatter, and you'll be able to get a free all-around academic master.

Arriving at the classroom early, it was still empty, so Hermione chose a seat in the middle on the right. Carney is used to sitting at the back, close to the door. His primary school seat was at the end.

"Why are you sitting at the back?" Hermione made a three on her head.

"Because I want to reach the top of Hogwarts!" Carney said without thinking.

"You want to rush to the owlhouse to deliver the message?" The highest place in Hogwarts is where the astronomy class is held, and there is only the owlhouse above. Hermione said strangely, "And I don't think I can hear the professor clearly in class at the back. Every word."

"Well, you're right!" Carney kept chatting to death. The first class still left a good impression on the professor. After all, it was his dean's class.

He moved to a seat in the middle on the left. As for why he didn't sit with Hermione, he didn't feel familiar enough to sit together, and he wasn't too embarrassed. After all, he was a novice who had never been in love in his previous life, and he still wasn't. yes!

The empty classroom was extremely quiet. Carney felt like he had nothing to do. He looked at the Transfiguration textbook on the table and wanted to read it, but he was afraid that Professor McGonagall would come out at some point. He took out a treasure, don't think too much about it, it was just a wand. The size of his wand is already the shortest, but it is only suitable for three turning methods. One is to hold it in the middle like a cigarette, with circles drawn on the tip and tail of the stick. This is relatively unskilled. One is rotated on the thumb, which is also relatively simple. Another method is to alternately rotate the other four fingers except the thumb, which is not enough for his hands to complete.

He turned to the first type. After all, it is not as easy to fall off as the second type. If you break the wand, people in your grade will laugh at you for seven years.

"Why don't you sit over here?" Hermione broke the calm.

"Really, I can sit next to you?" Carney was a little surprised. After all, he was an otaku in his previous life and had not received many invitations from girls.

"Of course, don't we have to go to the library together after class?" Hermione said in a matter-of-fact tone, "Are you used to sitting alone?"

"Yes, when I was in elementary school, I always sat in the last row alone because I couldn't chat with my peers." Although foreign children mature earlier than Chinese children, they are not as early as 20 years old.

"Me too, I studied hard at school, but always felt out of place. Only when I received the notice did I realize that Hogwarts is where I should come. I am different from them. Only here can we find like-minded people. "Hermione had to talk for a long time as soon as she started talking.

"Hmm." Ka felt that she was out of place entirely because she loved studying so much and spoke so eloquently that her peers could not refute, so she had no friends. You are only eleven or twelve years old, why are you so good?

Just think about this kind of thing in your heart, don't say it out loud, for the sake of friendship.

"Hermione, you memorized the Transfiguration textbook, have you ever tried it? I mean transforming things." Carney changed the topic. Learning to discuss this kind of issue can easily change Hermione's topic. This trick has been tried and tested.

"I tried it, but it only made a little difference. The textbook only talked about some theories and not many essentials. I haven't succeeded in any of them yet." Hermione said worriedly, "I think I will be the worst. ”

"Don't even think about it!" Carney said righteously, "I'm the worst. I practiced two spells at home for a month, but I still can't use them 100% every time, and I can't memorize the book." Why not? Three, because the Iron Armor Curse was not used even once, he just gave up.

"Thank you. I have practiced several magic spells at home and they were all successful." Hermione was still a little uneasy. She always wanted to be perfect or the best.

"Perhaps you should start with the simplest ones, like the Sparkle Charm," Hermione said.

"Huh? Is there such a spell? Oh, I remembered it, why didn't I think of it!" Fluorescence flashes, like clear water like a spring, it is an auxiliary creation spell. One has no substance and the other has substance. He had been studying Clear Water Like a Spring, but there was no comparison, and the consumption and use of the Flashing Curse was simpler and more mindless than Clear Water Like a Spring.

"What's the key point?" He just read the book roughly.

"Think you need a light source, then say the magic spell, shake the wand, like this - fluorescent flash!" Hermione took out the wand to demonstrate, and the tip of the wand lit up, glowing white, but It's morning now, so it's not very bright.

"Flash!...Flash!...Flash!" Carney tried three times before he succeeded. The brightness was a little darker than Hermione's. It should be a problem with the magic output, but he hadn't quite figured out where the magic was.

He tried to use his right hand to tighten his grip on the wand. This was something he discovered when he was practicing the levitating spell at home. Things floated very slowly, so he subconsciously put force on the wand, repeatedly trying to separate things from the air. As expected, the floating things were much faster.

The tip of the stick is getting brighter and brighter, reaching the point where it casts an obvious shadow. This level of brightness is not as dazzling as the light from electric welding. it works! Carney thought to himself, slowly increasing his strength without trembling all the muscles in his body. The light grew stronger and stronger, like a small sun. At least that's how Hermione felt.

It lasted for three or four seconds, but Carney felt that more than ten minutes had passed, because his body began to feel tired and sore. He paused, and the tip of his wand dimmed.

"How did you do it?" Hermione was already stunned at the side. Her shining spell had always been so bright. She thought it was standard, but now she was completely shocked.

"I don't know much about this," Carney explained. Exhausting energy? What about magic? He felt as tired as if he had run a three-thousand-meter run. He found that his body was exhausted, but his spirit was very good, and he was not affected at all. But if he wanted to try again, he was completely unable to do it. Fortunately, it only lasted three or four seconds, otherwise he would be lying on his stomach instead of sitting down. .

She looked at Carney and felt that this person was so annoying. In the previous sentence, she said how bad she was. Well, now that she was performing, she felt that he was completely different. She was a little bit angry. Just after you took the exam, your friend told you how badly he did on the exam. He didn't read any books or do any review questions. As a result, the test paper was handed out and I ranked first in the class.

"It's unbelievable, Mr. Strain, the level just now is much higher than that of his peers."

"Professor." Hermione's frenzy was over before it even started...
