Chapter 366: a little flustered

Chapter 366 A little flustered

"Unexpectedly, things are really as you said."

After the Transfiguration class, Fred looked very complicated. He personally learned from Professor McGonagall that Professor Trelawney in the Divination class likes to welcome new students with omens of death, so that Fred finally stopped obsessing over omens of death. up. To be honest, the omens of death are pretty intimidating.

"Professor McGonagall seems to think that Professor Trelawney has no ability to predict." George muttered softly after looking around to make sure there was no one there.

"Divination is one of the most inaccurate subjects in magic. There are very few people who can truly predict the future, and Professor Trelawney..."

Although Professor McGonagall didn't finish her sentence, she still knew what she was going to say. Professor Trelawney didn't have the talent of prophecy.

"Some people say that Professor Trelawney is a liar."

"Who said that?" Fred asked suddenly.

"That's what Albert means." Without thinking, George pinned the blame on his roommate. He thought that was what Albert meant.

"What are you thinking?" Seeing that Albert had remained silent, Lee Jordan couldn't help asking.

"Think about the content of the Transfiguration class, how to become an Animagus." Albert glanced at George, "Don't think I didn't hear you frame me just now."

"Do you want to become an Animagus?" George quickly changed the subject.

"Well, it's a pity that it's difficult. According to Professor McGonagall, it takes several years to become an Animagus." Albert still remembered that there was such a task in his task panel. If the Animagus skill is highlighted on the panel...

After the Animagus panel task appeared, Albert had read the relevant books on this part, but the panel failed to show such skills. He needed to think about how to get the Animagus. Upgrading has become a secondary thing instead.

"I think you should be able to learn it soon!" Fred said with certainty.

"I didn't even know you had such confidence in me?" Albert said with a glance at Fred.

"Of course, if you become an Animagus one day, remember to teach us, if you can become an animal like Professor McGonagall, it will feel great when you think about it." Fred clapped vigorously Pat Albert on the shoulder for encouragement.

"I'm just talking casually about being confident. This is your real purpose!" Albert couldn't help complaining.

"Albert may really be able to become an Animagus. As for you, don't even think about it. Professor McGonagall seems to say that there were no more people who became Animagus in the 20th century..." Lee Jordan raised his hands and gestured Twice, um, he forgot the exact number of people, it seems that there were no more than ten people.

"There are only seven Animagus registered in the 20th century." Albert sighed, and finished speaking for Lee Jordan. "Of course, it's hard to say whether there are only seven people."

"Why?"

"This refers to the registered Animagus, which means that there are unregistered Animagus, although it is illegal to register an Animagus with the Ministry of Magic's Prohibition of Misuse of Magic Office , but as long as you don't let the Ministry of Magic know that you're an Animagus, it's actually not illegal."

"You seem to be right when you say that." Fred muttered softly, "If I were an Animagus, I certainly wouldn't want to register with the Ministry of Magic."

"Why?" Lee Jordan asked in confusion, "If the Ministry of Magic finds out, they will definitely be fined a large sum of Galleons."

"Of course it is to avoid being supervised by the Ministry of Magic!" Albert pouted, "The Ministry of Magic asked Animagus to register with the Prohibition of Misuse of Magic Office, saying that so that others will not hurt you... It is pure nonsense, in fact Just to spy on you."

The three of them looked at each other in dismay. They had just passed through the foyer and walked into the auditorium with others noisily to have lunch.

"Animagus is suitable for spying, stealing information and other things, so the Ministry of Magic asked Animagus to register with the Ministry of Magic. I dare say that Professor McGonagall must have done similar things before." Albert Te curled his lips and said: "If you become a beetle, a dog, or a mouse, you can easily hide yourself and eavesdrop on other people's secrets, because no one will be wary of a beetle." , they won't even notice your presence."

"Well, that's true."

The three nodded in unison, and they all felt that Albert had a deep understanding of the Ministry of Magic... well, the essence of some things, and they had never even really thought about these issues.

However, if you think about it carefully, what you said really makes sense. Sure enough, the way of thinking of geniuses is different from theirs.

Albert was eating a potato with the skin on, and Fred took out the class schedule from his schoolbag to check the upcoming classes.

"There are classes on Protection of Magical Creatures and Potions in the afternoon." After eating a sausage, George pointed to the date of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and said rather disappointedly, "Oh, the Defense Against the Dark Arts class is on Thursday afternoon Only then."

"Don't look forward to Defense Against the Dark Arts too much." Lee Jordan, who had just inquired about the news, walked back with a gloomy face.

"What's wrong?"

"I just asked the senior students who took the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and they said that the class taught by Quirrell has almost become a joke." Lee Jordan said gloomily, "The classroom he taught is still full of people. It smells weird."

Defense Against the Dark Arts is a course that many students are looking forward to, especially the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts in the first two semesters is very reliable, and everyone has learned a lot of useful things.

"Professor Quirrell's character does not seem very reliable. To be honest, I never expected him to be able to teach this class well." Albert shook his head and said. Perhaps, Quirrell could indeed do well, but he disguised himself with cowardice. Under such circumstances, it would be a strange thing to expect the other party to teach the students well.

"When are we going to the restricted area on the fourth floor." George asked in a low voice.

"Let's go on the weekend, there are still a lot of things to do now." Albert wondered if he should use the time converter later to give himself time to rest. He still needs to go back to the dormitory to see how Tom is doing. He can't really starve his cat, so he can see what it is doing.

Well, better take Tom to the kitchen, say hello to the house elves, and if you can, ask Kara to help take care of Tom. "

At this time, there was a brief commotion in the auditorium. Even without looking, Albert could guess what was going on. Harry Potter had come to the auditorium.

Ron took Harry to sit opposite Fred and George, and complained to them about what happened this morning.

"You said Filch!" George winked at Ron and said, "He's the administrator of the school, and he likes to trouble the students. As long as he doesn't get caught, there's nothing to be afraid of."

"It's definitely not our relationship that he troubled you. Well, definitely not, Filch never troubled Charlie and Percy because of our relationship." Fred said with certainty that they were not responsible for this matter. .

"You must have never taken Potions class, and when you meet Snape, you will find that that guy is even more unreasonable than Filch." George said solemnly, "Don't try to argue with Snape, that guy It will make you more unlucky."

"And Snape never gave points to students other than Slytherin." Lee Jordan added.

Ron opened his mouth, suddenly not knowing what to say.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Albert. He often gives points to Gryffindor House, but he never gets a point from Snape!" George pouted in Albert's direction and said, " As far as I know, that's been the case for the last few years."

"Weasley, it's not a good habit to speak ill of others in secret, and twenty points will be deducted from Gryffindor!" Lee Jordan suppressed his voice and imitated Snape's tone.

There was a burst of laughter all around.

"Ahem!" Albert coughed twice, and the original laughter stopped abruptly. Lee Jordan looked around vigilantly, and after confirming that the voice just now came from Albert, he couldn't help but rolled his eyes at him .

"Potter, I have a suggestion for you!" Albert looked at Harry who was eating and said, "Take a good look at the book "A Thousand Miraculous Herbs and Mushrooms."

Harry was a little confused and didn't understand the meaning of Albert's words.

"What Albert means is that Snape will ask you questions." Fred explained casually, he turned to look at Albert and said, "I remember that in our class, Snape was in the first potion class I'll ask you a question in class, right?"

"However, I remember that Albert seemed to get all the answers right."

"Yeah, the answer is correct, but he still didn't give Gryffindor any extra points. He just said: I copied it from the book exactly, but it's basically correct."

"Why do you still remember what Snape said!"

All three of them were shocked.

"Every time I'm called up to ask questions, as long as the answer is correct, he will basically say this sentence." Albert ate the last piece of potato on the plate.

"Why me, I mean that Professor Snape wants to question me?" Harry was even more puzzled.

"Because you are a student of Gryffindor, and you are the famous Harry Potter!" Albert said without hesitation, "Snape will definitely ask you, use you as an example to scare other characters Students of Lanffindor."

Harry Potter suddenly didn't know what to say, he didn't want to be famous, and if Snape only targeted him, wouldn't it be too unfair.

"Don't worry about Potter, Professor Snape is a professor in the school. Well, I admit that Professor Snape is indeed a little biased towards Slytherin students, but he will not deliberately target you." Percy said in Albert He sat down next to him and stared dissatisfied at these guys who made fun of the professor. He lowered his voice and warned: "Be careful that Snape hears it, if he finds out, he will definitely deduct Gryffindor's points severely."

"Don't worry about Percy, Albert can afford it. He added twenty points to Gryffindor in today's divination class." Fred said indifferently.

Albert got up and packed the tableware, and greeted the three of Fred, "I'm going back to the dormitory, lest Tom be hungry and tear down our room."

"The first class in the afternoon is the protection of magical creatures, remember not to be late."

"I'll be back soon, you guys go to the library to help me get a seat first, we'd better start writing the dissertation on Transfiguration class today, so as not to have a bunch of homework crowded together." Albert said after finishing walked away.

"He's right. If you don't do your homework quickly, you will end up with a pile of homework that you can't finish." Percy looked at Albert's back and said to the twins: "After the third grade , the daily homework will become particularly large.”

"Well, Ron, push over the dish of seasoning next to you." Fred didn't take Percy's words seriously. If they really can't finish, they won't find someone to learn from.

You know, Albert has to take all the courses.

"Harry, I suggest you listen to Albert's advice, that guy's words are very accurate." George said after eating the sausage on the plate, "Snape will probably find you trouble."

What are these things, Harry felt a little panicked!
