"You're back!" Yost punched Tom on the shoulder with tears in his eyes, "I almost thought I was going to be the chairman of 'Tree of Wisdom'."

Tom clapped his hands away indifferently: "If you think too much, it will be impossible in your life."

Yost: "I dreamed that you, Alphard, and Wendy were all folded in. What should we do? Are we counting on Malfoy?"

Abu turned his head: "Who is calling me?"

"No!" Yost yelled, and continued, "Then I took us bankrupt, and then I woke up."

Wendy comforted him with a slight smile: "Thank you for your hard work during our absence."

"Yeah." Tom showed a half-smile expression, "It's hard to dream."

Yost: ...

"Alfard, give Yost an extra 5% dividend this year."

Yost: ..."Do I look like the kind of guy who would bow down for a 5% bonus?"

"Of course you regard money as dung." Alphard smiled and patted Jost on the back affectionately, "My good brother, this is compensation for your worry and fear during this period of time to maintain your job."

Jost was pushed away by him, muttering: "Okay. But I always feel that something is wrong."

The Atlantis incident has come to an end. After seeing the orderly city of the dead, the free and undisciplined life of the British wizarding world is very rare.On the first day of the spring semester, the core members of "Tree of Wisdom" returned to school by Hogwarts Express.

"I haven't been on the train for a long time." Wendy opened the door of the box, looked into the corridor, and saw the small carts selling snacks, her eyes lit up. "Here! A chocolate lava ice cream."

"I want pumpkin juice, big jug." Yost shouted.

Alphard followed suit: "Then bring me some crucible cakes."

The old woman who bought snacks smiled and handed the food requested by the children into the box. "Of course, pretty little ladies, and handsome little gentlemen."

Yost waved his wand and created a set of glasses out of thin air, and he distributed the pumpkin juice to his friends.Then, he dug out a Potions textbook and began to review it painstakingly.

"How rare. You're studying Potions? Isn't Potions your most hated subject?"

"Yeah, yeah." Yost gulped down a big gulp of pumpkin juice. He drank it so fast that a circle of yellow juice stuck to the edge of his lips that had begun to grow a fuzzy beard. "I have to review." Yost wiped his lips, "There are Ordinary Wizarding Levels (OWLs) this semester, if you can't get enough O's and E's, you can't study advanced courses, and you can't take the Ultimate Wizard in the seventh grade Level Tests (NEWTs). Without sufficient NEWTs certificates, you will not be able to find a job in the future.”

Abu was caught by Jost's string, and then he was in a hurry on his seat: "God, I haven't started reviewing yet. My magic text class QAQ. What should I do? My mother's portrait did tell me Passing the fifth and seventh grade exams is very important, but I forgot about QAQ when I heard it."

Tom almost raised his forehead: "Calm down! Abu, what are you in a hurry for? The property of the Malfoy family is enough for you, your son and your grandson to squander a lifetime. And Yost, do you have any misunderstandings about the 'Tree of Wisdom'?" ? Can't find a job? Are you kidding me, you are a special engineer at Riedel Factory!"

"Oh." Yost and Aburu were enlightened, "Yes!" Yost stuffed the potions textbook under his buttocks, and began to grab Alphard's cake to eat.

Wendy tapped the ice cream-stained spoon on the edge of the bowl disapprovingly: "Tom, if you don't get 12 O's, Professor Slughorn will come to you and cry."

It's hard to describe Tom's expression now.

Yost hit the ground and put his hands on his chest to express his grief: "Oh~Tom~you are the best student I have ever taught~I always thought~I thought~"

"The same goes for you." Wendy continued to knock on the edge of the bowl, "If you do poorly in the exam, you will lose face to the 'Wisdom Tree'."

"That's right, that's it." Tom looked at the friends who were choking with a smile, showing a complacent expression, "Although you don't have employment pressure, you can't embarrass the 'Wisdom Tree' because of poor exams. How about we Let's start making up lessons every day, shall we?"

"Merlin's briefs!" The underachievers cried with each other.

Adhering to the idea of ​​"die together," Alphard said, "We can't be the only ones. I think both regular and peripheral members of the 'Tree of Wisdom' need to study hard for the honor of the 'Tree of Wisdom'."

So happy to decide.

So, two months later, Wendy got a listless roommate.

"Felix is ​​a NEWTs-level content, why do we have to learn it now?" Rolanda was like a wilted broccoli, "'Tree of Wisdom' supplementary lessons are more difficult than the textbooks."

Wendy: ...

"Well, your emotions don't fluctuate, and you even find it easy."

Wendy hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth: "Could it be, isn't Felicia Felix easy? Tom can make Felix Elixir by the third grade."

"Ow!" Rolanda wailed, "I shouldn't have asked you. You and your boyfriend are not normal."

"Tom is not my boyfriend."

"Okay. He's not. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh) what's important is Felicia."

Wendy went to Rolanda's bedside and rubbed her head: "The reason for teaching Felicia Felicia is because the internal structure of Felicia Felicia overlaps 40% with the euphoria to be tested in OWLs."

Rolanda looked at her weakly: "What are you talking about?"

"After you have learned Felicia Elixir, you will have a high success rate in making the Euphoria Elixir."

"The euphoria potion is too simple. I can make a euphoria potion, but it doesn't make me know how to make a felicity potion."

Wendy could only continue rubbing her head: "Do you want to go out and fly around?"

"Okay!" Rolanda jumped up, grabbed the broom and ran outside.

The spring semester of fifth grade is a semester of exams. Under the huge pressure of exams, decompression potions are as popular as Quidditch competitions.Even Harold Prewett of Gryffindor, the winner of the Best Quidditch Contribution Award, had to bow to the evil forces of the exam. "If only OWLs could just take flying lessons. Herbal medicine or something, it's harder than riding a broom through a storm in the Atlantic."

He still remembered being handed over by Wendy and Alphard at a critical moment, and he was a little uncomfortable when he bumped into members of the "Wisdom Tree" on campus. "I felt terrible, like a coward running away," he told Wendy.

Wendy took a silver Sickle and gave him six bottles of decompression potions in exchange. "The exam is enough for us, you can't think too much." She put another half bottle of Felix Felicia in Harold's bag. . "Good luck, Mr. Prewett."

"Thank you."

1943年4月17日,温蒂迎来了16周岁的生日。这标志着她正式步入这个时代英国人所认为的成年序列。她被允许参加正式的社交舞会,同时获得了饮酒和结婚的权利。【1】

Her pre-exam career interview also happened to be on this day.

When Professor Flitwick met, he gave her a gift box: "Happy birthday, Miss Carter." He had to sit on a high chair to be at eye level with Wendy.

In addition to Professor Flitwick, there was also Vice-Principal Dumbledore taking notes in the office.He smiled at Wendy: "Today's protagonists are you and Professor Flitwick." He raised his quill, "I'm just a recorder."

Having Dumbledore as a wallflower is such an interesting experience.Wendy sat down in the armchair in front of the desk.

"Ahem." Professor Flitwick cleared his throat, and said in a businesslike manner: "Miss Wendy Catherine Carter, this meeting is to talk about all the jobs you may participate in, and what you need to choose in the next two years course." After he finished his opening remarks, he was amused by himself, and turned into a usual smiling face: "What kind of work do you want to do in the future?"

"I'm not sure."

Professor Flitwick's eyes widened.

"I'm really not sure. I want to study at a Muggle university. I also want to travel around the world and find a place with beautiful scenery to live temporarily. I still have a lot of research plans, and it seems okay to continue working in the factory."

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay kids, not everyone has a clear plan for the future. Have you seen the job recruitment leaflets distributed in schools this semester?"

"Well, there are some great shops, Gringotts, the Ministry of Magic...but I might not be fit to be a worker. My health doesn't make me a desirable worker for employers.

"You may be more suitable to be a free scholar." Professor Flitwick slapped his head, "If you have no financial pressure, this is indeed the most suitable."

Wendy was amused by his actions: "I am not short of money. Maybe I was short of money ten years ago, but I am no longer short of money now."

"That's great." Professor Flitwick clapped his hands, "Then let's look at your course selection in this direction. I heard Albus say that you have a very high standard in ancient runes, and I think you may wish to Be an archaeologist. History of magic and ancient runes, then?"

"no problem."

He lowered his head to make a mark on the class schedule: "Oh, Defense Against the Dark Arts, Professor Mellors told me that she does not recommend you to continue taking this course."

Wendy blinked.

"Several classroom accidents scared her." Flitwick made an exaggerated expression, "But if you can get an O in OWLs, she can't stop you from taking this course, but you really want to Persevere? I consulted Mrs. Farrell, she..."

"I don't insist."

"Oh?"

"I don't insist."

"Oh, that's fine, kid." He patted Wendy on the shoulder reassuringly.

"I don't have anything to delete." Wendy said with a smile, "Potions and herbs are very practical for me, magical creature class is my greatest pleasure, and there are still charms and transfiguration—" She was innocent Blinking her beautiful blue eyes, "You're going to admit me to advanced courses, aren't you?"

Flitwick and Dumbledore exchanged a look: "Of course."

After several weeks, the OWLs exam finally kicked off in a tense atmosphere.

In Wendy's opinion, OWLs, which only takes one course a day, is easier and more enjoyable than the college entrance examination, which takes all subjects in two days.And she only needs to take 9 courses of spells, potions, transfiguration, herbal medicine, history of magic, defense against the dark arts, astronomy, ancient runes and protection of magical creatures. Compared with Tom, who needs to take 12 courses A lot looser.

The officials of the Examination Department of the Ministry of Magic can't be said to be strict, and there are medical staff on standby during the practice exam.It can be said to be very considerate.

Exams are over and summer vacation is here.

Note [1]: Different countries have different regulations on drinking, coming of age, and the minimum age of marriage in different periods.Britain in the middle of the last century cannot be compared with Britain today.I don’t intend to mislead young readers here. Please remember: the age of adulthood in the People’s Republic of China is 18 years old, and the minimum age of marriage is 22 years old for men and 20 years old for women (some ethnic minority special zones have lowered the marriage age requirements for ethnic minorities, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan regions The legal minimum age for marriage is lower than that of mainland China).
