Chapter 356 saw it
"Here, your bubble tea."
Albert handed a cup of pearl milk tea with ice cubes to Nia, while he sat on the sofa next to him, drank a big cup, and narrowed his eyes comfortably.
The last time I learned how to make tea with Mrs. Perenal, I not only learned the skills of making tea, but also ordered a very unmagical tea art skill. The black tea I made by myself is indeed better than before.
Daisy, who flipped through the secrets of tea making, has also improved her tea making skills significantly.
However, compared with Mrs. Perenal, there is still a big gap. There is no way, the price of the top French black tea is there.
In order to eliminate Nia's complaints these days, Albert bought a pack of glutinous rice flour in the supermarket and made pearl milk tea at home.
Glutinous rice flour is not common in the UK, and it took him a lot of time to find it.
Pearl milk tea was quickly loved by the whole family. It is really comfortable to have a cup in the hot summer.
Feeling a sudden furry touch from his legs, Albert put down his cup, looked down at Tom who was rubbing against his legs, and bent down to hug him.
"It's useless to act like a baby, you are already 20 pounds." Albert scratched Tom's chin and put him on the sofa next to him.
After Albert came back, he found that his cat had become fat again. In desperation, he reluctantly implemented the weight loss plan, lest he would lose his ability to run when he was brought to Hogwarts.
If possible, Albert actually doesn't want to take Tom to school, worrying that he will be bullied by those mischievous children.
No way, fart kids are not easy to get along with.
In the past, Tom was left at home, and Nia helped take care of him. Now that Nia has gone to middle school, if Daisy and Herb get busy with something, they can't take care of them at all.
This stupid cat doesn't go out to look for food by itself like Shera. If I don't take it to school, God knows what will happen.
You can’t leave it in the care of Grandpa Luke. Although the two old people like Tom very much, this is not an excuse to abandon the cat or give it to others to raise.
"I can hardly hold Tom anymore!" Nia said while smoothing Tom's hair with a comb, "Grandpa Luke always said that Tom should be fatter to look better."
Albert suddenly didn't know what to say.
"Tom will go to school with you, will he get lost!" Nia was still a little worried, after all, they have been together for many years, and Tom is also a member of the family.
"Don't worry, I asked an old friend to order a cat tag for Tom." Albert took out the special cat tag he asked Nico to help from his leather bag, and explained casually, "This thing has a positioning function. "
As he spoke, Albert took out another compass, and the direction of the north needle of this thing pointed to the position of the cat card.
"With this thing, Tom won't get lost."
"Magic is really convenient!" Niya took the pointer enviously and tried it, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
"No, magic is not as convenient as you think. We have already had something similar here." Albert shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, electrical appliances cannot be used when they are brought to Hogwarts."
"Oh!" Nia responded casually, looking at the books spread out on the table and asked, "What book are you reading again?"
"Divination book, I'm teaching myself divination with a crystal ball."
Albert is reading the part about crystal ball divination in "Picking Through the Fog to See the Future". He has been reading the book for a few days, but there is no skill related to crystal ball divination on the skill panel, which makes Albert feel a little bit I wonder if I have no talent in this area.
Now he regrets a bit, why didn't he ask Nicole Flamel about divination.
"If you can really see the future, you won't be the only one who can see it, right?"
Nia put her head in front of the crystal ball and took a closer look. There was nothing inside except a cloud of fog.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Tom next to him wanted to flick the crystal ball, but Albert stopped him.
"Isn't this just self-study?"
Albert reluctantly picked up Tom, put it on the ground, and explained to Nia, "One day I can really see the future, and I can use this to make a lot of money."
"According to what you said, most wizards should be very rich. They only need to know the lottery numbers to win the jackpot." Daisy put a plate of biscuits on the table and couldn't help mumbling.
"There are always a few wizards who can predict the future." Albert shook his head. "Moreover, most wizards don't have the concept of pounds."
"Didn't you give Tom breakfast?" Daisy saw Tom put his head in front of the biscuit, and quickly took him away. The fat cat didn't give up, and began to act coquettishly and beg for something to eat.
"A little less than before, it's losing weight now."
"Tom seems to be hungry!" Daisy touched the cat's head, looked at her son and asked, "Speaking of which, didn't you want to learn finance before?"
"I don't want to think about it now, anyway, I have found a better way to make money!" Albert has completely abandoned his original financial dream.
"Predicted winning the lottery?"
Daisy felt that after two years in Hogwarts, her son had become very unreliable, and his mind was full of strange things.
"Ahem, I'm just talking casually!" Albert interrupted Daisy helplessly.
Prophecy can really make money, and it can completely predict the outcome of a game. Betting on football and horses is not uncommon in Europe.
However, until there is an actual case, he knows that it is difficult for others to understand.
Albert is also very helpless about this.
Especially those on the technology side generally have poor acceptance.
Daisy was surprised that Albert went to visit the legendary Nicole Flamel, who was actually still alive, and lived for hundreds of years without suffering from Alzheimer's disease.
Shaking off the weird thoughts in his mind, Albert once again focused his gaze on the crystal ball.
Wizards' crystal **** are not the same as Muggle fortune-teller's deceptive crystal balls. The crystal **** used for divination are usually more expensive. The one in front of him cost 20 Galleons.
Looking at the crystal ball filled with pearl-colored mist, Albert frowned slightly. If he could really predict something, the mist on the crystal ball would be cleared away, showing what he wanted to see picture.
Obviously, Albert failed.
The crystal ball in front of him is still a cloud of fog, not the winning numbers of this lottery.
The so-called "seeing the future through the fog" may be referring to this. The wizard who wrote this book must not have the talent for prophecy!
Albert began to flip through the books while speculating maliciously.
Suddenly, the white mist in the crystal ball swirled, and Albert immediately dropped the book and began to stare at the changes in the crystal ball.
Nothing changed in the fog.
However, after he opened the panel and searched carefully, he found that there was a crystal ball divination skill on the panel.
Albert immediately raised his skills to level two, and then turned his attention back to the crystal ball.
At this moment, the fog in the crystal ball seemed to fade a bit, and Albert vaguely felt that he saw a hand writing a string of numbers on the parchment.
