Chapter 91: Benefit a lot (1/2)
For students living in Hogwarts, the weekend is undoubtedly a good day.
At the weekend, everyone doesn’t have to worry about being late for class, and they can wake up naturally after sleep. After waking up, they don’t need to consider the problems encountered in class. They can have a good time and relax the pressure accumulated during the week. Let students take a breath during their busy study life.
Early in the morning, the Weasley brothers’ bed was already empty. The two got up early and went out, planning to plant garlic on the edge of the forbidden forest in a clearing where the sun could shine.
This is where they found it after a lot of effort. It is sparsely populated and there is no need to worry about being discovered.
To be honest, Albert really couldn't understand what Fred and George were thinking about. Is the time and energy spent growing garlic really just to make that kind of ridiculous amulet?
Perhaps!
Anyway, the two of them have very strange brains, and they are not surprised what they do.
Before Albert finished breakfast, Fred and George had already returned. Their robes and hands were stained with dirt. After they hurried to the bathroom to clean them, they talked to him about growing garlic.
Listening to the constant chatter of the two, Albert had always wanted to complain, did they not have the concept of planting garlic in a flowerpot?
Rejecting Li Jordan's invitation to train at the Quidditch Stadium, Albert just reached ten o'clock on his pocket watch, and he reached out on time to knock the wooden door of the Dark Arts Defense Office on the second floor of the castle.
In other words, did you open the wooden door of the other's office the last time you entered Professor McGonagall's office?
At that time, a few of them were not punished by Professor McGonagall. It is really incredible now that I think about it!
The wooden door was opened from the inside, and Professor Bud Brod looked at Albert standing outside the door and invited him into his office with a smile: ”It was just ten o'clock, and you were really on time!”
”I hope I didn't bother you.” Albert walked into Professor Browder's office and looked at this extremely comfortable room. There were a few soft sofas in it, bronze carpets at the feet, and neat walls. There are several bookshelves on the ground, and the bookshelves are full of various books. The number must be over a hundred. Blue silk curtains hung around the windows. Looking out from the windows, you can see the courtyard of the castle. Now, some students are walking, chatting, and basking in the yard.
”What do you want to drink?” Brod asked.
”Milk tea.” Albert said curiously: ”Professor, take the liberty to ask, are you graduated from Ravenclaw?”
”Yes, it's not hard to guess, right.” Brod blinked at Albert. He raised his wand and tapped the empty teacup in front of the two of them. The cup immediately gave off a fragrant milk tea smell. .
Albert put some sugar in his milk tea and stirred it slowly with a spoon. For a moment, he took a sip from his teacup, ”I heard that Ravenclaw's eagle-shaped bronze door knocker is very interesting.”
”Yes.” Professor Broad nodded. ”As long as you can answer the question about the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker, the Ravenclaw common room will be open for you.”
Albert laughed without saying a word, shaking his head impenetrably.
Although Professor Brod said so, he did not think that Ravenclaw students would welcome a stranger into their common room.
People are always xenophobic. If students from other colleges go to the Gryffindor common room, the result is not hard to guess.
Professor Browd pointed to the dessert on the table and said: ”You may like this freshly baked pumpkin pie.”
”I also like pumpkin pie. It tastes great when it's hot!” Albert took a piece of pumpkin pie and talked about the book he had read a while ago: ”By the way, Professor, I just read it. After ”Simple Alchemy”, the book feels... very special.”
He organized his vocabulary a bit, then hesitated for a moment before continuing: ”It's hard to imagine that what is described in that book is the so-called alchemy. Do you understand this?”
”I don't want to pretend to be an expert in alchemy. The opposite is true. My knowledge of alchemy is limited to the knowledge in books.” Professor Broad shook his head and said, ”I think you are definitely not here today to discuss with me. It’s alchemy, right?”
Albert knew that he should end the topic of alchemy, so he pulled the topic to ”Dark Force: A Guide to Self-Defense”, chatted with some doubts about reading this book, and talked about the spell described in the book by the way.
”I'm glad you talked about this topic.” Professor Brod said happily: ”Yes, that's right, as you can see, ”The Dark Forces: Self-Defense Guide” does not record many useful defensive monsters. Curse, but do you know why this book will become a must-chosen book in Defense Against the Dark Arts class?”
”Know.” Albert said, ”This book can help us recognize the dark creatures in the world, and teach you how to deal with these dark creatures.”
