Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 396 The targeted scarf

   "Do you think that the way Professor Quirrell looks at us is a bit strange!"

  On the way to the hall, Fred, George and Lee Jordan walked and chatted about what happened just now.

   "If it were me, it would definitely be the same."

  Lee Jordan, who was walking side by side with the Weasley brothers, couldn't help complaining,

"Why?"

   "Why? Ever since you sold the garlic cross amulet to Professor Quirrell, he has been looking at you strangely." Lee Jordan stretched out his hand to cover his face and reminded aloud. At the beginning, he didn't agree with the twins going to Professor Quirrell to sell amulets.

"But…"

   "It's nothing to worry about. What would you think if someone teased you in person?" Lee Jordan immediately interrupted. The twins may not mean that, but it doesn't mean that Professor Quirrell won't have that idea.

   "But... doesn't Professor Quirrell need to get rid of the entanglement of vampires?

  Fred was very puzzled, he remembered Albert as... well, where is that guy? He turned his head and looked around, but he didn't see Albert, so he asked, "Where's Albert?"

   "You just found out, it disappeared inexplicably just now." George had an expression that you just found out now. They have encountered this situation many times, anyway, Albert will definitely show up again later.

   "Have you noticed that the strange smell on Professor Quirrell's body is stronger!"

   "Of course I noticed!" Fred raised his eyebrows and said in a low voice, "It's a pity that Peeves didn't succeed last time."

   "That guy took so much of our stuff, and that's it?"

  Speaking of Peeves, Lee Jordan was very dissatisfied. The guy took a lot of dung bombs and stink bombs from them, but failed to do it.

   "Peeves said that Professor Quirrell was prepared and could not succeed." George said.

   "Do you want to give up?"

   Everyone is curious, is Professor Quirrell's scarf stuffed with garlic or a garlic cross?

   "It's best to give up. Everyone has secrets that they don't want to be known." Albert didn't know when he reappeared.

   "Where did you just go?" Lee Jordan asked.

   "What were you talking about just now?" Albert deliberately changed the subject.

   "What do you think is in Professor Quirrell's big scarf?" Fred knew that Albert would not say anything, so he stopped asking, and just told Albert about Peeves' failure.

   "I already know. I heard that Quirrell cast a spell on his big scarf so that the scarf will not be torn off." Albert said what he had heard.

   "You will know?" The three of them were very surprised. They didn't expect Quirrell to use this trick, which ruined their original fishhook plan.

   "I've heard what others say, but I don't know if it's true or not."

   "Why don't we let Peeves try again?" Lee Jordan suggested. He was still bitter about Peeves' failure, and it wasn't okay to screw things up after that.

  Albert's face twitched slightly, admiring the death-killing abilities of the three of them, knowing what would happen once Voldemort, parasitic on the back of Quirrell's head, was exposed!

   "How many days are you going to be in confinement?" Albert asked, "If you are ready, I can try to make you a fishhook that can undo the curse."

"this…"

   "Can make Peeves..."

   Before Li Qiaodan could finish his words, he was interrupted by Albert raising his hand.

   "Peves won't listen to you unless you give him something else."

   "Forget it."

  If Peeves' scumbag doesn't succeed, won't they just waste their joke props in vain?

  The three of them are not as rich and powerful as Albert.

   "The treasure from last time seems to have been dug out." Albert immediately changed the subject, "Did someone secretly release water and tell them the location of the treasure?"

  The three unanimously stated that they did not tell others the location of the treasure.

  However, Harry's treasure map is only one of the treasure maps made by Albert. However, these treasure maps need to be deciphered to find the location of the treasure. According to Fred, George and Lee Jordan, Albert did not intend to make people happy to hunt for treasure at all.

   I didn't expect Harry to be able to solve the mystery. It's quite amazing. After all, who of you has seen his treasure map.

  Sure enough, the subject was quietly changed.

   "Well, it seems to be the treasure spot near Hagrid's pumpkin patch. The treasure seems to be... that garlic-flavored cross." Lee Jordan said uncertainly.

   "Go and ask, don't you know everything?" Fred pouted in a certain direction, and the three looked up and saw Harry and Ron eating there.

   "I heard that you got a treasure map last time. How is it? Did you find the treasure?" Fred came to Harry and asked, putting his hand on Ron's shoulder.

"I found it. Unfortunately, the treasure inside is very strange." Ron knocked off Fred's hand on his shoulder, and couldn't help complaining: "I found a bottle with a strong smell, and there was a strange vampire amulet in it. Later, Harry gave that thing to Professor Quirrell."

   "No wonder!" The four looked at each other and said in unison.

   "Wonder what?"

   "Nothing?" Fred said casually, "Be careful not to run into the Forbidden Forest. Last time, we also got one, but we ran into the Forbidden Forest and almost couldn't come back."

   "Who are you bluffing!" Ron curled his lips, completely disbelieving the nonsense of the two.

   "Do you know who ALFG is?" Harry asked suddenly. .

   "ALFG?" George changed the subject: "You mean Flag?"

   "No, it's ALFG." Harry gave George his treasure map, but Hagrid still didn't eat it in the end.

   "Ours is not signed!" George reminded.

   "Isn't this... a trick you made up?" Ron looked up and down at the few people in front of him and said, feeling very suspicious. These guys really look like people who would do such a thing.

   "We don't have that ability." Fred pretended to be looking at a map.

   Of course, they weren't lying.

   After all, the treasure map was drawn by Albert, and it really has nothing to do with them.

   "Is there any program for Halloween this year?" Albert asked a casual question when everyone sat down to eat.

   "I remember last year it seemed to be a chorus team!"

   "This year it's pantomime," George said. "I heard that Percy will also be performing, playing the wind instrument."

   "Prefect really worked hard!"

"Mime has been banned by the school a long time ago." Albert interrupted, "It is said that a long time ago, the wizard's fairy tale "Fountain of Fortune" was adapted and staged at Hogwarts, and this mime caused a big fire. This led to a total ban on pantomime performances at Hogwarts.

   "This year's Halloween is a circus performance!" Wood walked over and said to several people, "Remember Mario, Danny, and Jack."

   "Acrobatic trio?" Albert asked tentatively.

   "Yes, that's them. Those three guys really set up a circus after graduation. It is said that they will start touring and plan to use Hogwarts as the starting point for traveling around the world."

   "I didn't expect them to really set up a miniature circus!" Fred and George were both surprised, it was not easy to form their own team.

   Miniature circus?

  That's right, it actually refers to the wizards performing on the street. Mario, Danny, and Jack don't have enough funds to support the initial investment of the circus, so they can only slowly accumulate Galleons.
