Chapter 228： Influence spread

The crowd dispersed, and the little wizards were still enthusiastically discussing the topic of couple mirrors. In the corner of the lounge, Harry said thoughtfully: "Fred and George must have referred to the phone in reality, but it can only be achieved at the moment. One to one call."

"It's the dropped call I called you during the holiday... call?" Ron said, "This word is really weird!"

Harry recalled: "You were yelling vigorously. I feel like you thought you were talking to someone half a Quidditch pitch, for fear that you might not be able to hear you."

"I caused you trouble that time, and your uncle picked it up." Ron said hurriedly.

"Yeah, after he hung up the phone, he gave me a hard hit and almost pushed me back into the cupboard." Harry said indifferently.

Ron and Hermione looked at him worriedly, and Hermione said angrily, "Your family is terrible!"

Harry shrugged, "This is the only place I can go during the summer vacation. Fortunately, it's only two months, and when I reach adulthood, I can move out."

Ron said suddenly: "Why don't you come to the Burrow directly during the summer vacation? There will be the Quidditch World Cup next summer. My dad can get a ticket from the ministry."

Harry was shocked. "Can you?"

"It's not the first time anyway, my parents will definitely welcome you, let alone Ginny..."

Harry became happy, and it didn’t matter even if he couldn’t go to Hogsmeade for the weekend. "I bet the Dursleys will let me go, especially if I did that to Aunt Maggie. after that."

Hermione thought for a while and said, "Harry, judging from the Dursley's address, your place should be not far from London. You are also welcome to come to my house as a guest. At that time," she laughed, "I and Dad. Mom introduced that you are the wizard boy Mick."

"What's that?" Harry asked.

"The protagonist of a magic comic book comes from the wizarding world." Hermione said.

"Why haven't I heard of it at all?" Ron looked at her suspiciously.

"It's not long because of the publication. I bought it from Lihen Bookstore through Owl two days ago." Hermione hurried back to the dormitory. Not long after, she came back with a stack of books, and slammed it on her. Round table.

Harry fiddled with these books. One was obviously big and named "The Magic of the Muggle World", and the rest was a whole set of comics, slightly thinner, but larger in horizontal size, with pictures on the cover. Looking at a playground, a little boy dressed as a wizard peers his head at the entrance of the playground. The title of the book is "Mike the Little Wizard".

Ron glanced at the big book in fear, and without touching it, he flipped through the comic strip and quickly became fascinated by it. "Wow, that's interesting!"

Harry noticed the author's name on the cover: Felix Haipu, "Is this Professor Haipu's work?" He said in surprise, it is hard to imagine that Professor Haipu would create a comic strip.

Thinking he had read it wrong, he subconsciously opened the big book "The Magic of the Muggle World", which was filled with dense small prints and various illustrations, making him dizzy.

This is the style of Professor Haipu!

Ron closed the book and looked at the lower right corner of the cover carefully, "Really! Wait, LCA Comic Book Publishing House, my God, this is my favorite publisher!" He was so excited that he realized Harry and Hermione Masaichi. Looked at him blankly.

"This is the famous "The Adventures of Martin Miggs" published by them. It was my favorite when I was a kid!"

Harry suddenly remembered that the last time he went to the Burrow, he had seen this comic in Ron's room, but the magic on it had almost disappeared, and the character in the beret in the book had a terrible lag. , It is uncomfortable to see.

He opened the brand-new "Little Wizard Mick's Adventure" and opened a page at will. This page is divided into nine screens. From the first screen to the end, it tells about the time when the little wizard Mick visited a friend's , The first experience with pop-up toaster.

Seeing the comic strip, Mick pointed at the suddenly popped slice of bread with his mouth wide open, matching the words in the book: "This is magic, absolutely magic!" Harry couldn't help but laugh. He had seen a bread machine in Dursley's family, but he didn't expect it to be so interesting from a different perspective.

He even began to expect Ron to see the real bread machine with such a surprised expression from ear to ear.

Harry and Ron quickly got together and looked at the first page in order.

"Wait, I haven't finished reading it yet." Ron said anxiously as Harry was about to turn the page.

Hermione looked at them a little puzzled: "Although I admit that this set of comics is very beautiful, you don't have to be so exaggerated, right?"

Ron raised his head, "Exaggeration? It's definitely the best comic in the past ten years. I bet it is comparable to "The Adventures of Martin Miggs", and speaking of it, Martin's book The book is actually a bit outdated..."

Harry said honestly: "I also think it looks good, as if my ordinary life in the previous eleven years was suddenly extraordinary."

"But—" Hermione said, "Don't you think the book "The Magic of the Muggle World" is more logical and charming?" She turned a page of the big book, "Look, here's the story. The prototype of the steam engine was even combined with the floating spell magic to conceive a large airship..."

Ron looked up blankly. "What are you talking about, Hermione? What is a steam engine and what is a large airship?"

Seeing that Hermione had the idea of ​​forcibly popularizing science, Ron hurriedly hid behind the comic strip and said loudly: "Oh, Harry, look, why the slices of bread are popping..."

His voice attracted their roommate Seamo Finnigan, and by the way Neville and Dean Thomas, they pointed at the comic strip.

Some little wizards thought there was fun to watch, and they also gathered around.

Dean Thomas, who grew up in the Muggle world, saw one of the pages and couldn't help but introduce: "This is an ice cream machine, which is very convenient. You just need to add cream, milk and other ingredients to get a steady stream of ice cream. "

The others stared at him in a daze, and Dean proudly said, "My uncle has a mobile ice cream truck. I went to play on it when I was a kid." Ron looked at Dean enviously. He also wanted to have a steady stream of ice cream. eat.

Hermione tried several times to tell the little wizards the greatness of the steam engine and the large airship, but all they got was a polite glance, and then everyone turned their attention to the comic strip.

Percy did not show much interest either, but he noted the title of the book, "I think it is necessary to recommend it to Mrs. Pins. Hogwarts needs this book."

Hermione was puzzled. Why don't people like steam engines and airships?

When the ancient magic text class ended the next day, when Hermione asked this question, Felix laughed: "Granger, you have a special...love for knowledge, but you can't expect other people to be like you. Interested in boring knowledge.

That book is for adults, and can even be used as a reference book, and then look through the corresponding items when you need it.

Oh, yes, this is the list of the Magic Club, and these coins, I need you to send to the students on the list, you can ask Percy for help, he is the chairman of the student union. "

Hermione had no objection, she just looked at Tong Nath stacked together, "Is this Fenat?"

"Yes, I changed it at will. It was Fred and George who gave me the inspiration. They can heat up and display text." Felix said, "The time for the first club meeting has not yet been set, my recent schedule The arrangements are full, and it may have to wait until mid-November."

Hermione nodded, preparing to put away the list and coins, but when she saw the names of Draco Malfoy, Daphne Greengrass, and Pansy Parkinson, she couldn't help frowning.

Felix turned his head and beckoned to Harry, "Potter, come here!"

Harry, who was waiting for Hermione at the door, walked over and looked at Professor Haipu a little nervously. His paper was still close to the end, so don't let him care about it at this time.

Fortunately, Felix didn't ask about the paper. He whispered: "Harry, do you still have that sight glass with you?"

Harry took the pocket speculum from his pocket and Felix took it. "Wait a minute." He said, tapping it with his magic wand, and soon Felix pulled out a filament from the speculum. He hurriedly towed this filament to a golden Jialong.

"What is this?" Harry gave a look of surprise.

"A kind of synchronization magic," Felix explained. "As soon as the pocket speculum is triggered, I will get the news immediately ~ www.novelhall.com~ no matter where you are."

Harry understood that Professor Haipu was concerned about his own safety, just like Mr. Weasley, he sent a reply some time ago, in which he seriously criticized the three people’s attempts to probe Sirius Black’s secret behavior, thinking that This is "reckless, undesirable, unnecessary, and staying in school is the best choice."

In comparison, he still prefers Professor Haipu's approach, at least he did not intend to put himself in a cage.

In the next few days, the little wizards ushered in the first Hogsmeade weekend of the new school year, and many people had a wonderful time.

For example, the Weasley twins bought a batch of stinky bombs at the Joko Joke Store. In their words, "Without the company of these cute and stinky little guys, we will inevitably be flustered and unruly..." The sight of Filch was uncomfortable, as if something was missing."

The Halloween dinner was also great, and the ghost in the castle gave a perfect performance. But soon, the little wizards were attracted by the first Quidditch match that was approaching.

On the first Saturday of November, thunder rumbling, squally raging winds, and heavy rain poured down.
