Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 386 Are you dating?

   "Ha~"

  Albert put down the book in his hand, stretched out his hand to cover a yawn, and turned his head to look at the corner of the lounge, where a group of students were whispering together.

"What happened?"

  He turned his head and asked Lee Jordan. This guy leaned over to the bulletin board just now, so he should know what news was announced just now.

   "The first Hogsmeade weekend." Lee Jordan pointed to a notice on the bulletin board and said, "Mid-October."

   "Great." Fred blinked and said, "We're running out of stink bombs, and we just went to Zuko's to replenish them."

   "Why do you always like to make trouble with Filch?" Shanna, who was thinking about translating the ancient runes, raised her eyebrows and asked, "I know Filch is not flattering, but there is no need..."

   "No, no, it was Filch who troubled us first!" George interrupted.

Fred didn't intend to entangle this matter, and changed the subject, "Last time, we tried to sell the garlic cross to Professor Quirrell, but unfortunately he seemed to think we were joking. At that time, I wondered, Professor Quirrell was not afraid Are vampires coming to trouble him?"

   "You believe what he says?" Albert couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

   "Then why did he stuff garlic into the big scarf on his head, the smell can choke people to death." The Weasley brothers still insist that the big scarf must be stuffed with garlic.

   "Who knows!" Albert muttered, "Maybe there is some big secret hidden in it."

   "What big secret?" Fred asked curiously. He suddenly had an intuition that Albert's guess might be true.

   "How would I know, I just guessed." Albert shrugged.

   "How about we fool Peeves to pick off Professor Quirrell's big scarf." George's eyes lit up and he suggested. Of course, it is not easy to talk about Peeves, they need to prepare something interesting for each other.

   This idea was proposed by Albert, and the relationship between the two parties is not bad now, but every time Peeves is asked to do something, they have to spend money.

   "Albert, help me see, do these translations mean this?" Angelina interrupted the conspiracy of several people, and handed the parchment she had just translated to Albert.

   "Unfortunately...all wrong." Albert glanced at the translation on the parchment and gave the answer.

   "Oh, I really don't know why I chose this course in the first place." Angelina regretted choosing Ancient Rune, this course is not very friendly to most students.

   "What about mine?"

  Shanna pointed to her homework, which was the answer she had just translated through the "Rune Dictionary".

   For those weird and connected symbols, it is really difficult for students who are just getting started to understand, even with the "Rune Dictionary".

   This is like learning a foreign language, sometimes it is really confusing, not to mention, this thing is more difficult to learn than a foreign language.

  Initially, everyone just needs to figure out what 0 to 9 represent. Later, I needed to translate the meaning of a short paragraph of runes through a dictionary and remember the meaning of those words.

  This is the meaning of this course. In fact, it is to let you know what those weird symbols mean. It is said that the content of the exam also examines these things.

  However, the most difficult part is that a rune symbol may often have several meanings, and it is necessary to repeatedly deliberate the meaning of this sentence by connecting these symbols.

   That's right, this is the so-called translation, a deliberate translation.

   "There are several words in these two sentences that have been mistranslated." Albert pointed out the mistakes.

"Um."

  Sanna leaned her head over, glanced at the mistakes Albert pointed out, and thought about the meaning of those symbols.

She did not doubt Albert's judgment. The magic text genius who can talk to Professor Bathinda Babbling in ancient rune text and read the ancient rune book as ordinary reading is not at all moisture, even if There's nothing wrong with being a teaching assistant for Professor Bathcida Babling.

  As for the homework of the ancient rune, it is naturally not difficult for Albert.

To be honest, the class taught by Professor Bathhida Babling was the most boring class Albert had ever attended. The ancient rune knowledge taught by the other party, in the eyes of Albert today, seemed to be someone It's as easy as teaching yourself Arabic numerals.

  However, the ancient rune class is still required, and one cannot skip classes at will.

Professor Bathhida Babling also knew about Albert's level, but it's a pity that Hogwarts only repeats grades, but there is no such thing as skipping grades, so as long as Albert doesn't interfere with class, let him do his own thing up.

   Except for the occasional Professor Bathhida Babling who would ask Albert to come on stage and have a few conversations with her about ancient runes, Albert was doing his own thing the rest of the time.

  He found some interesting things for himself, found faults in the book, yes, found faults in "A Simple Introduction to Ancient Magic Text", in fact, it is nothing to find faults.

  The person who wrote the book is not an opener like Albert who has a panel. It is impossible for him to have the slightest mistake. As long as he studies deeply, he can always find some mistakes. Albert will point out the error and comment it next to it.

   "By the way, how is your research on that thing going?" Albert asked suddenly.

   "I don't have a clue yet." George shook his head helplessly, "We are thinking about where to get some pus from Babo Tuber."

   Not long ago, the twins wondered if they could profit from a student who had tried drastic methods to remove pimples from their faces.

Fred and George didn't take it for granted. For this reason, they asked Albert for his opinion. The latter also believed that women like beauty and would not be stingy with his own Garen in this regard. If he could really produce such a A potion is sure to sell well and make a lot of money.

  Actually, there is a similar beauty potion shop in Diagon Alley.

  Fred and George naturally didn't want to compete with Mrs. Primpney for business. Their target group was school students, and they were researching a potion that could effectively eliminate acne and acne.

   If the raw materials can be obtained, Albert is willing to provide technical and knowledge support.

  He has already asked Professor Sprout how to prepare this potion. At that time, as long as he puts in some experience to upgrade and improve it, it will come in handy.

  Of course, Albert is willing to give support, and it is also related to his sister, who just happened to give it to Nia as a birthday present. Isobel may also use it, and he can use it to make money in the future, no matter how you look at it, it is quite a deal.

  Fred and George are thinking about the Babo tubers in the school's No. 3 greenhouse, and they are going to go quietly to get some to make potions for Albert.

   Of course, it can also be purchased directly from the Slugger Ziggs Pharmacy in Diagon Alley. But Fred and George wouldn't mind getting some of their own, since they were already available at school.

  Lee Jordan doesn't pay much attention to this, he usually only pays attention to the wizard card.

   As for now, this guy is chatting about another piece of gossip: Someone was almost bitten by that big dog in the restricted area corridor on the fourth floor.

   "It's so courageous. Last time, didn't the unlucky guy who was bitten just came out of the school hospital?"

   "I heard that it was a student of Hufflepuff. His legs were weak from the fright of the big dog on the spot. Fortunately, Professor Kiro happened to pass by and used magic to pull him out without hurting him."

   "This is not like Hufflepuff's style." Albert raised his eyebrows.

   If it was a spur of the moment, he should be in Gryffindor!

   Albert bent down and picked up Tom, who was warming by the fireplace, and scratched the cat's ears. He could probably guess what was going on.

   Imperius Curse?

  It seems that this Professor Quirrell started to find someone to try, trying to find a way not to defeat the three-headed dog?

  How should I say it?

  Students are curious to death, anyway, it is not once or twice, as long as there is no big trouble, generally it will not attract the attention of the professors, at most it will deduct more points.

  Professor Quirrell did give the Hufflepuff student 10 points as a warning.

   "What are you thinking?"

   "I'm wondering when I can complete the great feat of reading a hundred books?" Albert put Tom on the ground and continued to flip through the book in front of him.

   "One hundred books?" Shanna raised her eyebrows and said, "I thought you had already read it."

   "I read about 45 books." Albert said, since he entered the second grade, he has spent a lot less time reading books.

"I read the description of Hogsmeade from the "Wizard's Ancient Ruins" in your hand. It is a very interesting place. It is said that the headquarters of the goblin rebellion is there." Putting the homework aside, he chatted with Albert about Hogsmeade.

"The headquarters of the goblin rebellion is in the Pig's Head Bar. It's a chaotic place, and it's also very dirty. If you go, remember to bring yourself a glass." Albert said casually. He didn't like the Pig's Head Bar, but Aberforth I don't like it either, that **** hasn't replied to him so far, although Albert didn't actually expect the other party to reply to him.

"I heard it's the only place in England that doesn't have Muggles." Shanna wanted to talk to Albert about this topic, but she didn't know that Albert and the twins had sneaked past several times. There is nothing new about it.

   "You don't seem too interested?"

   "Well, it's okay!" Albert shrugged towards his roommates, "The three broomsticks are more suitable for Honeydukes."

  He glanced at the communication bookmark, and sent a message to Isobel: Hogsmeade, do you have an appointment?

   Not long after, the bookmark changed color. Albert turned over and glanced at it, and the other party only replied with one word: Hmm!

  Going to Hogsmeade next weekend and getting together to talk about what to do first once we get to Hogsmeade.

   "You seem to be very familiar with Hogsmeade, remember to introduce it to us." Shanna got the hint from everyone, and bravely said, "Let's go together then!"

   "I'm familiar with it too, and I can introduce it to you too!" Li Qiaodan said with a playful smile.

   "I have an appointment." Albert politely declined, "Let Lee Jordan introduce you!"

  The girls couldn't help raising their eyebrows. After looking at each other, they nodded and reluctantly agreed.
