Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 205: The mouse
The busy and fulfilling college life always goes by very fast.
In the blink of an eye, time flies to the end of October.
The rainy season continues every year, and the weather is getting colder, the same as last year, and the situation is as bad as ever.
"Rainy days are always boring!"
Albert covered a yawn and looked up at the rainy ceiling, looking for an excuse to be lazy.
"Morning."
Fred and George, on one side, stretched out a hand and patted Percy's shoulder hard, smiling and greeting his brother who was sitting next to him. This beat made Percy, who was eating, choked and coughed again and again.
Albert was a little amused and handed the drink next to him. Percy took a big gulp of the drink, swallowed the food in his mouth, and glared fiercely at Frey who used Albert as a shield. Germany and George.
The two people hiding behind Albert are opening and closing their lips. If they can read their lips, they will be: You swallow it yourself, don't blame us.
Just then, the arrival of a large group of postmen caught the attention of the students. These owls, who had traveled long distances in the rain curtain, swooped through the splashed windows and threw the rain on everyone in the auditorium. on the head and body.
A grey owl threw a boxy package in front of Albert.
"It always feels like you get mail every day," Fred said enviously, pointing to another owl flying toward him.
The owl delivered a letter.
Albert glanced at the sender, stuffed the envelope into his pocket, and opened the package in front of him. Inside was a book of "Advanced Rune Translation" that still smelled of ink. This book was very likely to be Lihen Bookstore just sent it. "
"Advanced Rune Translation?" Percy glanced at the title of the book and frowned slightly, because he, who also studied Ancient Rune, had never heard the name of this book.
"This is the latest book compiled by Professor Babbling. It seems to be a reference book for the senior class of ancient rune classes." Albert explained casually.
To be honest, the book came out a little faster than he expected.
"Professor Babbling's own book?" Percy looked at the advanced rune translator suspiciously, and borrowed it from Albert to read.
A moment later, Fred and George also had a thick letter from home in front of them, and they were still chattering: "Mom got us wrong again."
"What's wrong?" Albert asked aloud when he noticed that Percy was looking at him strangely.
"You helped compile the notes?" Percy was stunned when he opened the first page, because it read: Dedicate this book to Albert for his help with this book .
Albert looked confused and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?"
"This..." Percy pointed to the content of the first page. There was no doubt that Albert was referring to the Albert Anderson in front of him.
"Yes." Albert nodded and admitted, "I did help revise the content in Advanced Rune Translation."
At this time, the attention of the students in the hall was caught by the slender package that the six owls were clutching together.
"Broomstick!" Fred pursed his lower lip and murmured softly.
While everyone around was still eager to know what was in the package, several people around Albert had already guessed the contents of the package.
Before the owls knocked over the breakfast in front of him, Albert quickly got up and caught the slender package that the owls flew towards him.
"Can I open it?" Lee Jordan asked Albert excitedly, staring at the slender package.
"Okay." Albert agreed to let Lee Jordan open the package on the spot and take out the broomstick that was inside.
"Sweep Six." George leaned in too, admiring the Sweep Series broom, which was more expensive and faster than their Sweep Five.
"You actually bought a broom." Albert's roommates were surprised that Albert would buy a broom because he had not been involved in Quidditch training for a long time.
"Fifty Galleons, okay." Albert muttered softly.
When he felt a line of sight cast towards him, Albert turned his head and looked in the direction of the line of sight. It was Isobel, the Ravenclaw girl who had just withdrawn her gaze.
Ever since the last Occlumency teaching, Albert and Isobel have maintained a friendly relationship, a bit like in a previous life, the friendship between gentlemen is like water.
Well, it's really just like water.
Occasionally have a few words when we meet in the club. The biggest communication between the two is to write letters to each other, and the contents of the letters are all ancient runes.
When Lee Jordan was introducing the advantages of sweeping six stars to the others, he suddenly turned his head and asked, "Are you going to try the advantages of the new broom later?"
"If you want to try it first, go out and play by yourself!" Albert didn't mind getting on a new broom right away, especially if it was raining.
"Then I'll try this broom for you first!" Li Jordan said happily.
"By the way, do you know where to get live mice?" Albert asked suddenly when he took out his notes and flipped through them.
The mandrake's cry storage project has been successful, and it is still a cry from a young age, however, Albert is not sure if the sound can kill a mouse.
Actually, Albert initially hoped that Shera would be able to bring back a living mouse for him~IndoMTL.com~ What happened?
Sheila brought back a bunch of dead mice for him, forcing Albert to stop the farce.
Originally, Albert hoped to catch a few mice at Hogwarts for experiments, but unfortunately, he still couldn't find a mouse after searching for a long time.
"In the kitchen?" said Lee Jordan uncertainly.
"Don't bother, Percy keeps a rat as a pet." Fred looked at his brother maliciously.
"What do you want the mouse to do?" Percy asked, frowning.
"Uh." Albert thought for a while, "I'm trying a magic experiment, the effect is similar to that of a stun spell. I want to use a mouse to try the effect first. However, I can't find a mouse for a while. ."
"So you got my Scabbers' attention?" Percy frowned slightly.
"Well, don't say that, Albert will definitely give you the money." George reminded with a smile, "one sico, two sic?"
"Three xikes, no more." Fred slapped his thigh hard and suddenly said, his move startled the others.
"Anyway, your Scabbers isn't a pet rat, so it wouldn't be a pity to die." The twins brought this up, causing Percy to frown slightly.
You can't use people to try it!
Although the cry of Mandrakes in its infancy can't kill anyone, Albert still doesn't want to face its power face-to-face, so finding a mouse to try is undoubtedly the best choice.
After all, the vast majority of experimental mice are still contributing to humanity.
Even if you can't find a guinea pig, the house mouse will do.
Well, Ron's rat seems to be his brother Percy's original pet. He remembered that the mouse seemed to be a wizard, Peter or something.
