Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 197 I have Galleon

  Placing Katrina's riddle bet during the Quidditch match was undoubtedly because she didn't want other people to watch. Perhaps, Isobel had her own considerations, and obviously didn't want too many people to know the secret of entering and exiting Ravenclaw.

  Though, students from other houses are less likely to be able to successfully answer the riddle and enter the Ravenclaw common room.

"Wait!"

  Before Isobel turned to leave, Albert suddenly called to stop her.

   "Is there anything else?" Isobel stopped and turned to look at Albert.

"Professor Snape has an ability, do you know? When I look at him, I feel like I've been seen through by him." Albert walked a few steps quickly, walking side by side with Isobel in the corridor, "You Do you know what's going on here?"

   "Why do you think so?" Isobel was silent for a moment, and asked back.

   "I think it should be a kind of magic." Albert said as he walked, "In the Muggle world, there is a saying called mind reading."

  Isobel stopped, stared sideways at Albert and asked, "Do you want to learn this kind of magic?"

"No, I want to find a way to counter him." Albert looked helpless, "No one wants to be read what they are thinking, especially Professor Snape. To be honest, I hate that kind of being read." The feeling of seeing through."

   "You mean Legilimency?"

   "So, it really is a kind of magic." Albert showed a really so expression.

   "Legiliency can be used to cheat in exams." Isobel also stopped, looked Albert up and down, and said suddenly: "Of course, you probably don't need to cheat."

   "Is there any way to counter it?" Albert immediately asked: "I mean magic that can protect yourself from being understood by others."

   "Occlumency, there should be such books in the restricted area." Isobel stared into Albert's eyes, and said coldly: "Actually, you know, right!"

   "What's the matter?" Albert suddenly looked away, and asked pretending to be puzzled.

   "About Occlumency." The expression on Isobel's face still didn't change much, "Or, about Legilimency."

   "Well, I found a similar statement in the library, but I didn't find any related books." Albert knew that he couldn't hide it from the other party, so he didn't continue to pretend to be stupid, otherwise he would really become a fool.

  Isobel took a deep look at Albert and looked away.

   "I hope to find related books. Of course, if you know how to use this magic and are willing to teach me, that would be even better." Albert said with a smile.

   "I do know Occlumency." Isobel said.

   Really will!

  Albert just said it casually just now, but Isobel actually said that he knows this Occlumency!

   Albert was silent for a moment, then suddenly thought of a possibility, and asked tentatively, "Mr. McDougall taught it?"

   "Why do you ask that?" Isobel asked calmly, because Albert guessed right.

   "So, I guessed it right." Albert said to himself: "This Easter, I was taken by Professor Broad to Mr. McDougal's party..."

   Isobel suddenly made a shh gesture at him, and someone walked towards him from the other side of the corridor, it was Professor Smith.

  Although Albert was a little puzzled, he didn't talk about it after all. When he turned around, he found that Professor Rowena Smith had appeared a few steps away from them.

   "Good afternoon." Professor Smith greeted the two with a smile, and then his eyes fell on Albert, "Have you written back to them?"

   "Yes, I just wrote back to me a few days ago." Albert nodded.

   "That's good." Professor Smith asked suddenly, "By the way, what are you talking about?"

"We are discussing the ancient rune." Albert explained casually, "Professor Babling is going to publish a book related to the ancient rune, I hope I can help her revise the manuscript on this part, Isobel Also very good at ancient runes, I was asking her if she would like to help."

   "Revise the manuscript?" Smith looked at Albert in surprise. He remembered that Mr. McDougal had done this kind of thing to Albert, so he was relieved.

   "My attainments in ancient runes are far inferior to Albert's." Isobel politely declined.

   "Well, this is a good thing." Professor Smith said with a smile: "It's done, remember to tell me, I'll buy a copy and have a look."

   "I will write it down." Albert said seriously. As he spoke, he actually took out a notebook from his pocket and simply recorded this sentence on it.

  At this moment, both Isobel and Professor Smith were stunned.

  None of them thought that Albert would really write this down.

   After Professor Smith walked away, the two continued the topic just now.

   "By the way," Albert asked. "Can you teach me Occlumency?"

   "Why should I teach you?" Isobel asked back.

   "I have Garen." Albert said without thinking.

   "I'm just getting started." Isobel didn't lie, she learned Occlumency this summer, just as Albert said, taught by his uncle Mog McDougal.

  However, you agree with the sentence just now, right?

   "It doesn't matter, I just need you to lead me in." Albert said without thinking, "I will figure out the rest by myself."

   As he spoke, Albert crossed his two index fingers together, "How about the price?"

   "Are you really rich?" Isobel said meaningfully.

   "Learning Apparation also requires Gallon." Albert didn't take it seriously, "Of course, because you are not regular, I think the price is appropriate."

   "Yes, as long as you don't regret it." Isobel agreed.

   "When will it start?" Albert asked.

"Sunday, once a week, in the Transfiguration Club classroom." Isobel reminded after thinking for a while: "Don't expect too much, I'm not good at Legilimency, and I don't know how to Back Galleon."

   "No problem." Albert said with a smile, "If you know of any books on Occlumency, you can tell me."

   "This..."Advanced Occlumency Guide." Isobel hesitated for a moment, but still said, "This is the book that my uncle showed me. If you want to find it, you should be able to find it in the restricted area of ​​the school."

   "See you on the weekend!" Albert nodded, ready to turn and leave.

   "You don't have to worry about me lying to you." Isobel said curiously.

   "Will you?" Albert asked back, "What's more, I have Garen."

  Isobel's face twitched, such words always felt like an explosive rich man. Of course, she believed what Albert said. After all, how could the guy who bet with Katrina with ten Galleons be short of Galleons?

   As for, using this matter to tease yourself?

  Isobel felt that this possibility was unlikely.

  Although the trust between the two parties is not high, the current and future social circles of the two are destined to have a large part of overlap. Both Albert and Isobel have actually discovered this. Moreover, both parties are geniuses with their own pride, so they would not and would not bother to do such tasteless things.

  Of course, from Isobel’s point of view, Albert is a rich man who has taken advantage of him. She doesn’t think that the other party can easily master Occlumency.

  However, Isobel obviously doesn't know that there is something called cheating in this world.
