The man behind Hogwarts

Time passed unconsciously.

The students at Hogwarts are gradually getting excited, and one topic always comes up when chatting with friends - Halloween.

There are still two or three weeks until Halloween, but there are only two or three holidays in Hogwarts that can be celebrated, so the students are already looking forward to the stars and the moon, just looking forward to Halloween coming soon.

The popularity of the Gem Club in the school has not diminished, but has become more and more popular.

The students also learned more about it, such as its membership, such as the club’s ‘research topic’ project...

“This is really cool and I want to be a part of it.”

"You can actually get money for research projects. What kind of magical club is this? I love it!"

“I just want to ask, who has exclusive information about Evelin!”

"Well... your idea is good, but I advise you to be careful."

......

The week of research is getting closer and closer.

Not only Cedric, but also Evelyn and Fran were obviously busy. They always carried several books to the office and devoted themselves to research.

Fortunately, the office is large enough. In addition to the arranged office area and rest area, there is also a space reserved as a spell casting area.

So various spells can always be heard in the office.

After William finished his class, he went to have lunch and drank a glass of honey water.

Then came to the Central Tower with a sweet aftertaste.

On the second floor of the Central Tower, at the entrance of the Gem Club, click the gem in the middle of the bronze book.

“Black gemstone—what is the darkest thing?”

Fran and the two have already set their own access passwords. This 'black gem' password was set by Fran.

William felt ashamed for a moment when he heard this question. The answer to this question was really stupid.

The answer is: "Black gem!"

Click!

The door is open! The answer is correct!

Putting the answer directly into the question, what kind of monster could come up with this idea?

William thought his question was a good one: Ruby - what has the most brilliant red color in the world? Answer: rushing blood.

At that time, William and Evelyn unanimously decided to set the question according to the four colors of gemstones. He was a ruby ​​and Evelyn was a sapphire. Later, Fran chose the black stone and Cedric chose the yellow stone.

Evelin told William privately that the stupidest question is the ‘black stone’.

William was convinced.

Entering the club office, several voices immediately came to my ears, including crisp spells, proud spells, and arrogant meows...

"Meow~"

A big orange cat as long as an arm and with a round waist came over.

First he rubbed against William's legs, and then walked around his legs, his tail brushing against him, bringing a strange feeling.

"Nora, touch!"

William yelled for a touch, squatted down, picked up the big cat, and stroked it gently.

This big orange cat named Nora is Evelin's pet. According to her, this cat is already one year old. She brought it from her own home and did not buy it from Diagon Alley.

Holding Nora in his arms, he said hello to Evelin and Fran.

“Evelin, you came so quickly, I didn’t even see you in the cafeteria just now.”

The spell Evelyn practices is the Flying Charm.

“SummoningCharm”

As she recited the spell firmly and smoothly, a sandbag flew from the foot of the wall into her hand. The flying spell was also called the summoning spell. It is a magic spell for those who prefer daily life.

The Flying Spell is suitable for summoning inanimate objects. There are only a few living creatures that can be summoned, making them almost useless.

"Are you going to class again? What class are you taking?" Evelin asked in return.

"Charms class!"

At this time, Fran also finished practicing the spell and sat on the sofa.

"William, I'm afraid your study progress has caught up with the second grade course progress, right?"

William nodded lightly.

Fran showed a look of envy.

The members of his F.A. club are still clamoring for a magic duel with William, and even persist in carrying out the 'perfect plan' he formulated.

But based on William's current learning progress, Fran feels that their hope of victory is very slim.

Yesterday, Jim excitedly told himself that he had learned another magic spell and must teach William a lesson in the duel... At that time, Fran just smiled awkwardly.

He suddenly realized that he seemed to have become a young man without knowing it.

On the surface, he is the Black Gem of the Gem Club; secretly, he is the president of F.A.

Suddenly thinking of something, Fran said: "Hagrid, the forest farm guard, came to see you this morning. He said that he found something."

Hagrid?

William immediately brightened up. It had only been four days since he asked Hagrid to find the engraved books. Could it be that he had already completed it?

"Did he say anything else?"

"No."

William nodded and prepared to go to Hagrid's hut later.

"Have you seen Cedric? I haven't seen him for two days."

Fran shook his head. Except for seeing Cedric during class, he had not seen him at other times.

Evelin guessed: "His research topic seems to be a bit troublesome. I met him in the library a few days ago and he seemed to be very busy."

"Fran, how did your research project go?"

"It's almost there. There are still two days before the deadline, which is enough to complete it." Fran said confidently.

His research topic is about the application of the magic spell 'Expelliarmus'. He already knows this spell, and his ability to master this spell is among the best in his class.

Now I'm studying this curse systematically, and the progress is pretty smooth.

Of course, during the research process, it was inevitable to consult Professor Crohn (the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher). Professor Crohn had a tough personality, but when talking about knowledge points, he explained it in simple terms and hit the nail on the head, which helped him a lot.

"What about you? How is the flying spell you studied?"

Evelin raised her chin proudly, showing a cool expression, and her bright star-like eyes were particularly lively, "Mine is finished."

"finished?"

Fran was surprised: "How could it be so fast? Weren't you still practicing the flying spell just now?"

Evelin: “The research project is indeed completed, I was just practicing it out of boredom just now.

how? You do not believe? "

Fran choked on his words. He wanted to say 'I don't believe it', but he didn't say it. He had an intuition that if he dared to say 'I don't believe it', he would definitely be slapped in the face.

He trusted his instincts.

During this period of contact, he gained some understanding of the talents of William and Evelin, and knew that they were both quite smart people.

But completing a research project in four or five days?

It still frightened him a little.

Evelin's talent is so strong, so wouldn't William be even more...

Thinking of this, Fran looked at William with even more awe.

I secretly thought:

There are only two days left before the evaluation time for the first research project. William did not participate this time... I must get first place!

I'm Fran!

I am the Black Gem of the Gem Club, the leader of Slytherin, and the president of F.A., I will definitely be as good as others!
