The Transfiguration professor at Hogwarts is always up for business

For the rest of the holiday, Enny didn't see Dumbledore. The old wizard seemed to have evaporated, and even Professor McGonagall didn't know his whereabouts.

However, after the magic power perception advanced, Aini felt more and more the unfathomableness of the world's number one white wizard. In his opinion, even if the world evaporated, if Dumbledore was willing, he would definitely be able to survive in other planes.

While Ernie waited in disappointment, Hermione returned to Hogwarts the day before the end of the Christmas vacation, and Bill arrived on the same day as her.

This holiday, he and his parents went to visit Charlie who was raising dragons in Romania, but due to financial reasons, all the remaining brothers were left at Hogwarts.

The twins complained quite a bit about this. Among the brothers, the third brother, Percy and Bill, were the best pair of school masters, while the fourth and fifth child were always Charlie's little tail before he graduated.And since last summer, they haven't seen each other for more than two years.

When Ernie saw him, Bill was wearing a long leather glove in his left hand, the top of which fell almost to the elbow.

"Hi, Ernie, are you okay?" Bill had the usual gentle smile on his face. He had a good impression of Ernie, he was serious about his work, outstanding in knowledge, and more importantly, he expressed his friendliness to the Weasley family.

Ron's changes are closely related to this professor. Facing the twin brothers whose mother dared to make fun of them, they even regarded the professor's words as a standard, and the second child could not clean them up so obediently.

"Thank you, I'm fine. But it looks like you're in some trouble. Would you mind coming to my office?" As soon as I met Aini, I found that Bill's gentle smile was a little gray. With some blue lines.

In addition to the eye-catching dragon leather gloves, ordinary acquaintances may only think that Bill is playing cool. After all, his character design has always been like that, but Aini can see its material without carefully distinguishing it.

That is the belly skin of Australian Opaleye. Although it is not as strong as the skin of other parts of the body, it is more resistant to magic, especially to better resist and isolate curses.

Except for Ron who was fooled away just now, even Percy and the twins noticed that Bill's expression was wrong, and they thanked Aini while pushing Bill.

"Thank you, Annie. But this one on me is very troublesome, really..." Although I am very grateful to Annie for his kindness, the injury on his body is not a simple curse. Even Dumbledore is helpless for the time being. Travel to France to seek help from an old friend.

He was worried that rash testing would cause it to change. Bill didn't want to implicate others because of himself, but he was interrupted by the twins before he finished speaking.

"Hey, Bill. The professor is much better than you." George opened his mouth and said without regard for his brother's face.

"That's right, I believe he is more powerful than you can imagine." Fred continued to pursue, and after repeatedly instructing them to develop prank products, the two had long regarded Aini as a life mentor and had full confidence in him .

"Let's go, don't worry, I have a measure." Aini naturally knew what Bill was worried about, and couldn't help feeling better in his heart.

Bill dispersed the brothers who wanted to follow up. For young wizards like them who are not strong enough, when spying on such a weird spell, even just watching from the sidelines is very risky.

Although Ernie's office was closer, Bill led him through the seven floors to his own.

As the holiday was coming to an end, the little wizards who had returned to school were wandering around in twos and threes. The two of them tacitly agreed not to go through the secret passage, and walked up to the eighth floor honestly. After opening the door, Bill was already a little out of breath.

"If I didn't know that you were with your family during the holidays, I would have thought that someone was going to comfort the little girl during the holidays, um, by himself." Ernie joked to the eldest of the Weasleys, and at the same time lamented that this house is like As cool as his master.

In front of the row of sofas against the wall, the exquisitely conceived coffee table is very eye-catching. The tea set is placed on the clean glass that is almost invisible, and the delicate sand table is underneath.

The yellow sand, the long river, and the sphinx crouching beside the majestic pyramid are so meticulously carved that even the smallest gaps are clearly visible.

Suddenly, a pyramid rose from the ground, eight slender tentacles protruded from the turbulent dust, and a pair of nimble little eyes appeared in the shadows.

"Forget it, Aini. Don't say you can't guess what it is for." Bill dismantled the lock on the glove with one hand, and knocked on the glass next to the water plants.

The frightened little fish rushed out, and one swam to the side of the pyramid in a panic, and was caught by the protruding tentacles.

"The design of the fish tank is good." Aini praised. Like the twins, Bill always has a lot of weird ideas in his mind. The difference is that he doesn't use these ideas to tease others, but embellishes his own life. .

His office is simply a small exhibition hall, where you can even appreciate most of the style of Egypt.

When Bill effortlessly unlocked the third lock, the little fish was dragged into the pyramid by the tentacles.

After a while, little light yellow liquid droplets flowed out from the bottom of the pyramid and merged into the model river. The liquid in the entire "river" did not interact with the water, and surged on its own.

"Ha, I remembered, it's Tualu, such a rare little guy, you must save some for me when the eggs are laid." Aini was very excited. I didn't expect to meet a kind of animal that I haven't seen yet at Bill's place today. past magical creatures.

Tualu is a magical creature whose habits and appearance are very similar to hermit crabs, but they do not have arthropods, instead they have eight octopus-like tentacles.

They have a pair of eyes with excellent vision and can see through, but they have neither nose nor mouth.Instead, they breathe by the fine hairs on the upper layer of the tentacles. If the found shell is too tight after buckling, they will stick out the tentacles outside the shell and bury them in the shallow sand for breathing.

Feeding is through the cavity in the center of the body. Tualu will not eat the prey, but spit out their own digestive organs. Their stomachs will secrete the kind of liquid in the model river to help separate food from water Open, it is good for digestion.

And throwing up the stomach is not a pleasant thing, so they usually don't excrete.The next time you catch your prey, you will settle it by the way before you are ready to eat.

The spit out stomach will fully unfold, allowing the water to wash away the digested residue, and the water will also take away some of the yellowish liquid mixed with the residue.

This liquid was called tuca in ancient Egypt, and it has a strong dehydration effect. It was used in rituals on a large scale in ancient times, allowing the remains to be dehydrated quickly and completely.

Moreover, the pure Tuka can refine the medicine into powder, which not only does not reduce the efficacy of the medicine, but also greatly prolongs the validity period of the medicine.

Because of this, these little things were caught so much that they were included in the extinct list after 1834. I didn't expect to see one here in Bill today.

"Tualu? You mean Bobo?" Bill was a little puzzled. He found this little thing while enjoying the beach in Egypt. It broke into a Muggle bathing place, and a bikini beauty picked up a conch.Was then taken aback by the crab face octopus inside.

At that time, I was looking at the scenery, heck, Bill said that he was just looking at the seascape, not the mountains and hills.

In short, the process is not important. In the end, Bill kept it in the fish tank and didn't know its origin.

Aini performed magic on him briefly, which surprised Bill very much, "How could this thing become extinct? Bobo is very easy to feed, sometimes I am busy with work for a month or two and leave it alone, but it is still alive and well."

"It's because you don't care about it." Aini was a little thankful that Bill didn't know the value of Bobo, "Tualu is not difficult to feed, as long as there is sunshine, it doesn't matter if you don't eat for a year or two."

"But if they don't see the sun for a long time, they will die, so they can't escape to the deep sea to avoid the capture of wizards. Tualu has no gender. Under the sun, every 3 years is a breeding cycle, and it can produce 5 There are 8 eggs, but once the card is forcibly collected, the process will be interrupted, so..."

"Wow, so I'm protecting an extinct species, haha, what a delight. You can just take it away later, no problem."

"I think the little guy still likes you quite a bit, it doesn't matter, Tualu has a strong vitality, and I'm afraid I will live in the Forbidden Forest in a few months... Oh my God!"

Bill finally untied the gloves. This time there were no weird lines on his hands, but the problem was more serious.

In the middle of the back of Bill's hand, a big Kazilan eye is rolling around, and it will pause for a while on certain things from time to time, as if it is observing, as if it has its own life.

Aini took a step forward and brushed his bangs away, feeling a little dizzy.

"The Eye of Horus, Bill, Romania is not a thing."

Bill gave a wry smile, "I left after Christmas. The Egyptian Ministry of Magic discovered that an underground tomb had been robbed. Dumbledore invited me to take a look together. Who knew I encountered a nested trap."

Aini raised his eyebrows. No wonder he hasn't seen Dumbledore for the past few days. It turned out that he went to Egypt. During this period, the old wizard's thoughts were all on Tom. Could it be that he stole the ancient underground palace?

"In ancient Egypt, the dead were more terrifying than the living. This curse seems to be a kind of beacon. Fortunately, the people who left these things have long since been wiped out by the years, otherwise you will be in big trouble."

Aini fumbled in his pocket while turning on advanced magic power perception. The curse that Bill cast was not very lethal. Its function was to mark Bill and send out a special signal for the caster to track. Removal is extremely cumbersome.

"Yes, we will try to transfer it when the principal comes back, but it will take too much time, at least one and a half months." Bill was a little unhappy. This is his first year of teaching, and he will ask for leave for the new year. He still has a lot of things to do, especially about the family, and he is about to find the answer.

Annoyed Bill then saw Aini take out a small bottle containing a wisp of silver blood.

"Unicorn blood?"
