Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 219 Coincidence and Inevitability

Before returning to Hogwarts from Hogsmeade, Fred and the others were unwilling to go back obediently, so they proposed to go with Hagrid to see his new pet Lu Wei, but it was a pity that they were flatly rejected by Hagrid. up. The guard of the hunting ground personally escorted Albert and the others back to Hogwarts College in order to prevent them from running around.

   "Don't let me see you sneaking off to Hogsmeade again, or I'll tell Professor McGonagall about it." Hagrid left these words, and turned to leave.

   "You said next time we go to Hogsmeade, shouldn't we put a disillusionment spell on ourselves?" Lee Jordan looked at Hagrid's leaving back and muttered softly.

  However, Lee Jordan is a bit lacking in confidence. He still hasn't mastered the more complex spells such as the Illusion Curse. If he wants to apply the Illusion Curse to himself, he needs Albert's help.

   "It seems that I need to work harder, or I will be thrown farther and farther away by Albert." He thought so.

   "That's a good idea." George said regretfully. It was a rare trip to Hogsmeade, and I came back without having a good time.

   "Where are you going to put this?" asked Fred, referring to the table salt he was carrying.

   "The Room of Requirement."

"I guess so."

"I suggest you go to the kitchen now to see if there is anything you can bake. We will use the fireplace in the common room to bake something later." Albert took out the barrel of butter beer from his pocket and handed it to Fer Red did not forget to remind: "Remember to undo the spell before opening the wine barrel."

   "I can't break the curse." Fred took the butterbeer and shook his head. He really doesn't know how to do it. Even the simplest solution to the curse is still too difficult for a student who has just entered the second grade.

   "Then wait for me to go back." Albert took the Marauder's Map from Fred, and when he passed the hall, he was about to separate from the others.

   "What if there is nothing to eat in the kitchen?" Lee Jordan asked suddenly.

   "Then go to the Black Lake to get a fish." Albert said without thinking.

   "What's the matter, are you planning to go fishing at this time?" Fred looked at Albert in disbelief. They had just returned from Hogsmeade, and their faces were flushed red by the cold wind.

"No, fishing is a hobby. I don't have the habit of fishing in winter. You can try using the Flying Charm." Albert noticed the strange expressions on the faces of Fred and the others, and frowned slightly. Suddenly, he murmured: "Oh, I almost forgot, the British hardly eat freshwater fish."

   "Aren't you British?" All three couldn't help but want to complain, "Or do you want to say that you actually eat freshwater fish?"

   "See you later, remember to bring more food." Albert walked away with a smile.

  Foreigners who can't use chopsticks hardly eat freshwater fish with many fish bones. Well, in fact, they don't know how to eat, after all, knives and forks are weak when facing fishbone.

  Thinking of this, Albert shook his head helplessly, which means that there are fewer people and more resources. If there are more people and fewer resources, even freshwater fish will not be eaten.

   "At this time, most of the students are going to Hogsmeade."

   When he reached the eighth floor, Albert cautiously observed the situation on the eighth floor through the Marauder's Map, and he saw a familiar name.

  Professor Rowena Smith?

  Albert froze for a moment, and murmured: "Coincidence, or... is he going to the Room of Requirement?"

  After arriving at the Room of Requirement, Albert found himself unable to enter, and the door was not opened?

   "Is there anyone in there?" Albert looked at the entrance of the Room of Requirement, and walked towards the Gryffindor common room.

   "Professor Trelawney? Or Professor Smith?"

   "Last year, Professor Broad also seemed to know about the existence of the Room of Requirement... The possibility of the latter should be relatively high. Then... what did Professor Smith do in the Room of Requirement? What kind of secrets are hidden inside?"

  What is the secret of the Room of Requirement?

   "Ravenclaw's treasury of knowledge?" Albert felt that he might have guessed the answer.

   After all, Professor Smith and Professor Broad are both from Ravenclaw. If they find the Room of Requirement and find its secrets, it is not too difficult to enter Ravenclaw's treasure house of knowledge.

   "Password, do you want to go in?" The fat lady was already very impatient, and stared at Albert angrily.

   "Oh, I'm sorry, the password is cream cake." Albert noticed the fat lady's unfriendly expression and said embarrassingly. As soon as the entrance to the common room was opened, they immediately went in. The rest of the common room was full of first and second year students who couldn't go to Hogsmeade. They were doing their homework, or chatting and playing games.

   Albert put the bucket of salt back in the dormitory. When he returned to the common room, he found that Fred and the others had already returned, and brought sausages, meat pies, potato chips and a small bottle of sliced ​​beef from the kitchen. The barrel of butterbeer shrunk down by them on the fireside table.

   "Look, we've got something nice from the kitchen." Fred happily lifted the skewer of beef and grilled it by the fireplace.

   "Skewer all the other foods." Albert pulled out his wand and waved towards the bamboo sticks, doubling the number of bamboo sticks.

  George and the others hurriedly helped to string up the food.

  Albert waved his wand again, returning the barrel of butterbeer to its original shape, and then conjured up wine glasses, filling them up for all four of them. Shanna and Angelina, who had been attracted by this for a long time, finally couldn't help it.

   "Where did you get this vat of beer?"

   "We got a little help from the robbers." Fred winked at Angelina and said mischievously.

   "Barbecue and beer, you really enjoy it!" Shanna couldn't help but sigh after taking the butter beer handed over by Albert.

   "Thank you." Angelina also took the butter beer handed over by Fred, and took a sip.

   "The taste is a bit strange. I still prefer the taste of cola and soda." Shanna took a sip of butter beer and muttered softly.

   "I wasn't used to drinking it at first." Albert distributed the butter beer to Fred and the others, and raised a glass to clink glasses with them.

  The grilled meat and sausages in the fireplace began to exude a tempting aroma. Several junior students watched this scene dumbfounded and couldn't help swallowing.

   Unfortunately, they were not invited.

   "It feels good to eat barbecue in winter." Albert picked up the roasted beef and took a bite. The seasoning of the house elf was a little weaker for him. "It would be better if we could skewer some vegetables."

   "You've got a lot to ask for," George grumbled.

   "It would be even better if the butter beer could be heated." Fred looked at Albert and asked, "Can't you?"

   "I'm not omnipotent." Albert couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

   "I'll just ask casually." Fred said with a smile, "Maybe you really will?"

   No one knows how many kinds of magic Albert has mastered. After all, in their opinion, this guy knows a lot.
