Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 286 A secret that is not a secret

  After lunch, Albert took the time to go to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office again, and asked Professor Smith about the problems he encountered while practicing the Untraceable Stretching Curse. The other party smiled and explained to him the reason why the spell failed.

  However, in Albert's eyes, the smile on Professor Smith's face and the explanation on his lips are hypocritical no matter how you look at it.

  Albert didn't pay much attention to this matter. After Professor Smith's explanation, he successfully expanded the capacity of the teacup, then got up and left, leaving Katrina stunned.

   "Don't compare with Albert, his talent is better than your sister." Professor Smith always felt that something was wrong, but he still comforted Katrina.

   You can’t comfort others, so don’t comfort them!

  Katrina felt even more depressed, and she found that she had been left far behind by Albert.

  No way, meeting a hard-working and talented genius is really puzzling.

  Actually, Katrina once asked Isobel about Albert, and the other party gave her the answer: Albert is Albert, you are you, and I am me. There is no need to compare.

  To be honest, Katrina has always admired Isobel's steady aura, and the other party has always looked calm, as if nothing can make her flustered.

   Depressed for a while, Katrina continued to bury her head in the spell book. Professor Smith did have a good teaching talent, and she could feel that she had improved significantly in spells.

   After leaving the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, Albert went directly to the library on the fifth floor. Standing at the door and looking in, it is easy to find the roommates who are doing homework, and they have reserved a place for him.

   After greeting everyone, Albert began to write the letters to be sent today, from home, from the Diagon Alley tailor shop, and from the French wizard Adolf.

   In other words, the relationship between this wizard from France and Albert is still at the stage of mutual communication. The other party did not give Albert the knowledge of the double-sided mirror as said at the last meeting.

   Albert was not surprised at all.

  There has never been a free lunch in the world. Even if you drop a pie, it may be a discus that will kill people, or a rock cake that smashes your teeth.

  Actually, Albert really doesn’t care. For old friends, make friends if you can. He usually uses a respectful and sincere tone to silently gather the wool of this group of old friends.

  In the letter to Adolf, Albert told about the troubles he encountered in using the conversion spell, and asked the other party how to use the advanced conversion spell and apply it to the magic mirror.

  Adolf must know advanced conversion spells, otherwise how would he make a double-sided mirror?

  That's right, Albert hopes to obtain a more advanced conversion spell from Adolf. The professors at Hogwarts will not teach this kind of more advanced magic spells, and there are very few people who really master these advanced magic skills.

However, ever since he realized advanced magic, Albert felt a bit of a pain in the ass, because there were no advanced Patronus spells on his skill panel. There is no advanced luminous spell.

  Actually, what Abuforth taught himself is still within the skill range of the Patronus Charm.

  Of course, it is not ruled out that advanced Patronus Charm requires pre-skills, such as how many levels of Patronus Charm skills are required before advanced Patronus Charm and other skills will appear.

  Panel tasks and skills, Albert himself did not fully understand.

"This is the schedule of the wizard card game. I checked it out and the game time has been staggered with other activities." Lee Jordan handed a piece of parchment to Albert when he put the letter in the envelope .

   "Well, thank you for your hard work!"

   Albert glanced at the game time and schedule on the parchment, picked up his quill, made a few corrections on the parchment, and then put it away.

   It is good to have someone to help!

   "If you know I've worked hard, lend me the paper on the Fire Curse." Lee Jordan said angrily.

   "Well, I haven't done it yet." Albert continued to bury his head in writing the letter to the tailor shop, "Fred, have you finished your thesis on the Fire Curse?"

   "Still working on it." George said with a smile: "If Lee Jordan wants to borrow it, we don't mind lending him after finishing it."

   "Forget it then." Lee Jordan shook his head and said, "Sanna, are you done yet?"

   "Sanna's share is with me." Angelina said without raising her head.

   "What are you doing?" Shanna looked at Albert and asked curiously. She had noticed that Albert had been busy since just now, and she didn't know what he was writing.

   "Write a letter and see you later."

   Albert used the Paste Charm, sealed the envelope, took the three written letters, and got up to go to the owl shack.

  At this time, there was no one in Hogwarts Castle, and all the students above the third grade had gone to Hogsmeade.

   When he just got out of the secret passage, he was followed by Filch.

   "What are you doing here?" The administrator stared at Albert gloomily, trying to see him through.

   "I'm going to the Owl Shack to post letters." Albert took out three letters from the pocket of his robe, and waved them in front of Filch, indicating that he wasn't lying.

   "Go then." Filch walked away.

   "What's wrong with him?" Albert asked the almost headless Nick who was passing by.

   "Peeves threw several large dung eggs at the corner of the second floor." Nick kindly reminded, "Filch took a long time to clean up, and now he is angry."

  Nick looked at Filch's leaving back, and continued, "Filch seems to suspect that there are students in Hogwarts who provide Peeves with big dung eggs."

  Albert knew that the Weasley twins bought a lot of dung eggs and stink bombs from Zuko's joke shop.

  This is really a sad story!

It was already ten minutes after arriving at the owl shack in West Tower. Albert asked Shera to deliver a letter home, and then sent a letter to the tailor shop in Diagon Alley. Finally, he picked a stronger owl and let him It went to France to deliver a letter to Adolf.

  As soon as he left the owl shack, Albert ran into an acquaintance. Isobel hurried over with a package in his hand, as if he was in a hurry.

   Albert greeted the other party.

  However, Isobel didn't seem to want to say anything more to him, so he responded and left in a hurry.

   "Forget it, it's better to pretend that you don't know!" When Albert was going down the stairs, he saw Isobel walking towards the castle with a few of his friends, apparently just returned from Hogsmeade.
