Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 84 Birthday present

  Recently, thanks to the unremitting efforts of the administrator Filch, the night tour of Hogwarts Castle has temporarily disappeared.

  Fred and George were not in the mood to test Filch's patience either.

  Of course, the main reason is that the two of them are too busy to spare enough energy to get up in the middle of the night for a night tour.

It's been almost a month since the enrollment, and the freshmen's courses are gradually getting on the right track. Although there are not many classes that need to be taken every week, there are actually a lot of homework for each subject. Moreover, the two of them still need to find time to participate in the Gryffindor Quidditch. Odd training.

  No way, who made Fred and George do their homework at a much slower speed than Albert, and in addition to homework for various subjects, they occasionally needed to find time to recite important theoretical knowledge and practice magic.

  Transfiguration is a particularly difficult type to learn.

  It took Albert's three roommates a week to thoroughly master the trick of turning matches into needles, and successfully passed Professor McGonagall's small test.

  Compared with the busy and fulfilling lives of the Weasley brothers, Albert's little life is undoubtedly very nourishing.

Albert could always finish his weekly homework in time, and it was even more difficult for him to recite and memorize. As for practicing magic, there was no problem in this aspect. Even the most difficult transfiguration technique for new students failed Trouble for Albert.

  Since Albert joined the Transformation Club, he has become more and more proficient in using Transformation.

  Last time, Professor McGonagall had just finished teaching how to turn a stone into a teacup. Albert had only tried a few times before he had fully mastered it.

  Of course, Albert always claimed that he had practiced for several days before he learned it.

  As for Quidditch training, Albert will also participate in "training".

  However, I only go once a week, and it’s not for training, but to play Quidditch with fans from the same academy. While enjoying the game and flying, I will strengthen my understanding of the rules of the Quidditch game.

Time passed quietly between the fingers, and Albert gradually fell in love with the campus life at Hogwarts. This feeling is very similar to the college life in his previous life, doing what he likes, and planning his future life little by little in a leisurely life .

   Except that there is no electricity, no Internet, no mobile phone, no music, no movies, no computer games, other places are quite interesting.

  Especially after mastering the basic knowledge related to magic, I have become more proficient in the use of magic spells.

  By the way, just now, Albert has initially mastered the summoning technique. Although he only summoned a blooming chrysanthemum, he managed to make the chrysanthemum bloom on the top of the wand.

   "Finally succeeded?" Fred reached out and took the chrysanthemum, sniffed it in front of his nose and asked, "Can you conjure other flowers?"

   "Of course, the orchids are in full bloom." Albert quickly put a few orchids on the table, and whispered to himself, "Practice more, and you should be able to conjure a large bouquet of flowers."

   "Awesome." Li Qiaodan really admired it, he knew that summoning was a super difficult magic.

   "Look, your package." George said suddenly.

   Albert raised his head and saw an owl flying towards this side. Fred and Lee Jordan immediately helped move the food on the table to make room for the owl to land.

   "Thank you." Albert touched Sheila's back, opened the package and found two thick books inside.

  Another gift was taped firmly to the package.

  Both are books on economics. Grandfather Luke probably learned from Herb that his grandson was interested in finance, so he bought a book called "Principles of Economics" as a birthday present. As for the other book, Herb bought it, of course, and it was called The Essence of Finance.

  Albert didn't pay attention to the books, and moved his eyes to another square package. After tearing open the package, there was a beautifully packaged box inside, and there were small cakes in the box.

   "Wow, who sent you the cake, it's so mini." Angelina stared at the box in Albert's hand, her eyes lit up.

   "It was sent from home." Albert picked up the card with a happy smile on his lips. In fact, even if you don’t look at the greetings on the birthday card, you can guess what is written in it.

  The birthday card was written by Nia. In addition to the usual blessings, she also emphasized that she was also responsible for making the cake.

   "Happy birthday." Shanna immediately figured out what was going on, and sent her blessings to Albert.

   "Thank you." Albert picked up a new knife and fork, cut the chocolate cake in the box into six pieces, and distributed them to several acquaintances around.

  Happy birthday wishes rang in my ears.

Alone Better Together.

  Anyway, I have to go to class later, so it is obviously inconvenient to carry this thing. If it was put in a backpack and it was crushed, it would be a waste of the family's heart. Moreover, the most important thing was that Albert had just eaten.

   "Wow, it's nice of you to be a year older." George ate the chocolate cake, giggling and joking.

   "If you were born 20 days earlier, you can enter school one year earlier."

   "Yes." Albert didn't take it seriously, and said lightly, "However, it's not bad to enroll a year later."

   Several people present, no one understood the meaning of this sentence.

"By the way, these two books shouldn't be your birthday present, right?" Angelina looked into the unpacked package and found two thick books inside, the top one was written "Economics" principle".

   "Is there something wrong?" Albert looked at Angelina suspiciously and asked.

  Angelina felt the corners of her mouth twitch, and there was something wrong with the way she looked at Albert, and she knew what to say for a moment.

  Why is this man in Gryffindor?

   "Can I see it?"

   "Whatever you want, just don't break it." Albert doesn't mind others taking it to read, anyway, the other party will definitely not understand it, let alone be interested in it.

   As Albert guessed, Angelina picked up the brand-new "Principles of Economics" and turned two pages, feeling dizzy and unable to understand what was written in it.

   No, it should be said that she can understand every word, but she can't understand it together.

   "I don't know why your family sent you this," George grumbled.

   "It's because of interest." Albert didn't intend to go deeper, but changed the subject, "Don't be too nervous, the broomstick is easy to learn."

   "Should I be the only one who can't ride a broom?" Shanna murmured.

   "Is the cake not to your liking?" Albert answered irrelevantly.

   "No, no, I really like chocolate cake." Shanna closed the Quidditch trace, and wiped out the cake in front of her.

  Actually, Shanna couldn't help being nervous. She felt that among the freshmen in Gryffindor, she might be the only one who couldn't ride a broom. This feeling was terrible.
