Harry Potter: The Atypical Alchemist

When getting in the car, Hermione followed Stone and asked:

"By the way, didn't you say you would tell me about Nico Flamel when you came back?"

"Oh, yes." Stone judged the danger of the news in his mind and confessed: "Nicola Flamel is an alchemist and the only current holder of the magic stone."

"What is the Philosopher's Stone?"

"It has many effects, turning stone into gold, making potions of immortality and so on."

"Immortal?" Hermione asked in surprise: "Then Nico Flamel..."

"It's over six hundred years old."

"Where did you know this?"

"He is my...cheap teacher." Stone said, "It seems that he also knows an ancestor of mine who is still sitting in my house."

"Hiss—it seems like you had a wonderful holiday!" Hermione sighed.

"Okay."

While chatting, they walked into the car where they usually sat.

The same three people, when they saw Stone, they all showed admiration in their eyes.

"Stone, did you really win the International Alchemy Conference?"

"It's a youth alchemy exchange meeting." Stone corrected and asked curiously: "Did the news spread so fast?"

"Of course, it was all published in the Daily Prophet!" Anthony said as he handed Stone a newspaper.

The front page of the newspaper showed the dynamic photo of him and Fudge, and Stone read the article.

To the effect:

With the support of the Ministry of Magic, and especially the encouragement of Minister Fudge, Stone Cape, a first-year student from Hogwarts, won the championship again after a hundred years.

Ah--

Stone sneered in his heart. I have only heard of it before, but this is the first time I have seen such a person who can put a lot of money on his face in real life.

"let me see."

"Give."

After handing the newspaper to Hermione, Stone took his seat.

While reading the newspaper, Hermione also sat next to him. After reading, she looked at Stone curiously:

"Is everything in the newspaper true? It always feels a little unreal."

"Which aspect do you mean?"

"Emm..." Hermione thought for a while and said, "Obviously you are the winner, but I haven't seen your name a few times in the whole story."

"Haha - you're pretty sharp, just treat it like that."

The stuff involved was a little disgusting, and Stone wasn't going to spoil everyone's mood by saying it.

"Well... at least you're the real champion, that's okay," Hermione said.

"I really didn't expect you to do such a big thing in the past twenty days." Anthony sighed, moved closer to Stone, winked and said, "Tell us your story."

"Okay." Stone nodded, "Let's start with flying..."

He told the story, and the other four listened with interest.

Along the way, Stone recounted what happened in Cairo and what he saw and heard.

Hermione frowned every time she heard the Ramadan sisters.

When the winner was announced, Anthony would pump his fist in celebration.

From noon to evening, they listened to the story and found something strange - the Ministry of Magic's sense of participation was very low.

But Stone didn't say much, and they didn't ask further questions.

The train slowly entered Hogsmeade, and the students boarded the carriage back to Hogwarts.

After entering the auditorium, Hermione hugged Stone and hurried to the Gryffindor table. She was anxious to ask Harry if they had found any information in the library.

——It's better not, so that she can show off the knowledge she just learned again.

Stone walked towards his Ravenclaw table.

As soon as he showed up, his classmates and seniors applauded and cheered him:

"Isn't this our Mr. Champion!"

"Hey -" Stone scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Did you bring us any gifts?" Penello asked.

"Of course!" Stone said, "I'll give it to you when we get back to the common room."

"I'm interested." Penello stood up and rubbed Stone's head.

I haven’t rubbed it in more than 20 days, and I really miss the feel.

"Pia~" Stone slapped Penello's hand away, "If you press it any longer, you won't grow taller."

"That's not good, I can rub it for the rest of my life." Penello said with a smile.

"..."

"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore." Penello patted his shoulder, "Hurry up and sit down, the dinner is about to begin."

The students had arrived, the teachers had taken their seats, and after Dumbledore said some words of blessing, dinner appeared on the table.

After dinner, on the way back to Ravenclaw Tower, Flitwick appeared in front of Stone and said:

"Your friend asked his teacher to give me a piano, saying it was for you. Is this true?"

"Oh yes, Axel Klum, a friend I made during the game, we exchanged gifts."

"Very well," said Flitwick. "The piano has been placed in the common room. I was looking for you for another reason."

"You say."

"Your friend's teacher is a friend of mine. He watched your competition and heard from him that you are proficient in temperament?"

"I can't say I'm proficient, but I do understand a little bit. What's the matter?"

"That's right." Flitwick coughed slightly, "I would like to invite you to join the Hogwarts Choir."

"...Not interested, see you Professor Flitwick."

After saying that, Stone ran towards Ravenclaw Tower as if he was running away.

Stone knew about the Hogwarts Choir, which was conducted by Professor Flitwick, and would be pulled out every time there was an event.

What impressed Stone most about this choir was not their singing, but the toads in their hands, that is, toads.

The thought of holding such a creature and singing and cooperating with it would give him goosebumps on his arms. For the sake of his own health, he might as well forget it.

Returning to the lounge with lingering fear, Stone saw a group of classmates sitting in front of the projector.

It was very bright in the lounge. They were not watching a movie, but looking at Stone eagerly, waiting for gifts.

"Wait a minute. The suitcase is in the dormitory. I'll go get it."

After returning to the dormitory, Stone opened his suitcase, took out his crystals and other materials, and took out the two most expensive necklaces.

No way, when he bought it, he didn't expect that he would win the championship and be published in the newspaper, so the quantity might not be enough. The two he took out were for Hermione and Penello - Hermione was not here, Penello might Be humble, so set it aside in advance.

As for the rest, he planned to put them all in boxes and let his classmates divide them among themselves.
