Chapter 799： Teacher Anderson

Chapter 799 Teacher Anderson

The news that Professor Lupine was a werewolf caused quite a stir in the Hogwarts school, and the majority of students were fed up with it for a while, until...a week later, the people at Hogwarts paid for it. cost.

After Professor Lupine resigned as Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, students were shocked to find that the school did not hire another professor to take over Professor Lupine's job, but instead directly canceled the Defense Against the Dark Arts course.

 That's right, the Defense Against the Dark Arts class has been temporarily canceled by the school.

 The reason is that Principal Dumbledore cannot recruit a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for the time being, and no one is willing to teach the students as substitutes.

This incident caused great misfortune to the students of Hogwarts who were facing the final exams, especially the students who were about to participate in O.W.Ls and N.E.W.Ts.

 Professor Lu Ping resigned before he even had time to explain the key points of the exam, let alone the questions he thought were most likely to appear in the exam.

The Defense Against the Dark Arts class, which was already a tricky class, immediately stunned the fifth and seventh grade students.

Hence, the only Defense Association that was related to the Defense Against the Dark Arts class and offered tutoring for fifth grade students became even more popular.

Some students with a particularly strong desire to survive even made the bold proposal of letting Albert teach everyone the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. The most speechless thing is that Professor McGonagall actually asked Albert for advice.

If it were anyone else, they would naturally not have this qualification, but geniuses like Albert are an exception. Also receiving similar treatment is the talented girl Isobel who is about to graduate.

Neither of them agreed to teach the students, but they were willing to use the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom to teach everyone the key points of the exam in their spare time, which could be regarded as helping everyone with tutoring.

 As for whether to go to the party or not, that is a matter for other students.

The news spread throughout the school like wings. Many students expressed disdain, but more people were relieved, especially the fifth and seventh grade students. After all, other grades did not need to take the Defense Against Dark Arts test, but the fifth grade students were relieved. Both grades 1 and 7 need to face important exams.

The results of O.W.Ls and N.E.W.Ts are your own, and no one will have trouble with you. Even most of the fifth-year Slytherin students hold their noses and go to the party. Guys who want to cause trouble at the party will be hostile to everyone. , before Albert could speak, a group of people would throw the troublemaker out.

 “Goodbye Mr. Anderson.”

 After the party, a group of girls greeted him with a smile.

At first, a certain Ravenclaw girl used it to tease him, but for some reason, many fifth-grade students called him that, making Albert feel several years older.

The most gratifying thing is probably that I successfully triggered and completed a task related to "teacher", which rewarded me with some experience and reputation in the magic world.

"I really hope this semester ends soon." Fred stretched out his hand and scratched his head, turning his head and complaining to George who was doing homework next to him, "Obviously the O.W.L exam is about to come, why are the professors still giving us homework so hard? , I feel like I’m almost being driven crazy.”

"Albert definitely doesn't want you to throw away your studies right now." George understood what Fred meant. He actually wanted to throw away the annoying homework and drop out to open a joke shop in Diagon Alley. But he knew very well that Albert didn't want them to do that.

The Weasley twins have such a little thought, which actually comes from an unexpected gain not long ago.

Although Black's 10,000 bounty was lost, Albert still managed to get a large amount of money through that incident, and the three people involved in the incident also received 10% of the benefit.

 As for where that money comes from?

Lee Jordan overheard this from Harry. It is said that Albert secretly accepted the commission for the portrait and helped Blake clear his name, and received a full reward of five thousand galleons.

 Ten percent per person, which is five hundred galleons!

That’s five hundred galleons!

The three of them were shocked by Albert's generosity. That night, they didn't actually do anything, so they easily got a large sum of galleons.

With a thousand galleons, the twins have enough start-up capital to open a store. Recently, they have been snickering in their dreams, which made Lee Jordan look at them a little weird.

“You don’t want to drop out of school to open a store, right?” Li Qiaodan asked suspiciously.

 The four of them had planned to open a store together for a long time, and he suspected that Fred and George wanted to start the plan in advance.

"We would like to, but Albert will probably not agree." Fred shrugged and looked at Albert who was writing a letter.

"If you don't have enough knowledge accumulation, you will soon encounter all kinds of troubles in developing joke props." Albert said to the twins while checking the contents of the letter, "Zoko is actually the best case. , when people reach middle age, or even not middle age, their minds will become blank and they will no longer be able to come up with interesting inventions. The shops will be like that. When the shops here open, you will soon squeeze them out. shop.”

 “Really?” Fred and George looked at each other, but Albert’s words were always accurate.

"Really, but Joko will probably not sit down and wait for death. He will definitely cause trouble for you in other ways." Albert said calmly.

 “You seem to have said something similar before.” Lee Jordan said with a smile.

 “Not the time yet, is it?” George muttered.

“Now is not the time to open a store, and I think you should seize the opportunity to accumulate while you are in school to prepare for opening a store after graduation. After leaving school, you basically have no extra time to study.”

Of course, even if Fred and George wanted to drop out of school and open a joke shop, there would be no Galleons. Albert did not give them the Galleons, and the Galleons would still be in his treasury.

"I think Albert is right. It's too early to open a store now, and we're not ready yet." Lee Jordan also felt that it was best to follow Albert's advice, which would save them a lot of trouble.

“At least, you have to make them popular among students like the wizard cards, so that customers will care about our store in the future, and opening a store also requires skills, and we still need to figure out how to make money.”

In the HP novel, the Weasley twins' O.W.Ls results were a mess. Now that they have start-up funds, the two are even better, but Albert still hopes to get the twins back on track.

You can’t ask him to do everything in the future, right?

That shouldn’t annoy him to death.

The main reason why Albert took his roommates to open a shop was to share the money while lying down, and also to find a way to monetize the knowledge he had mastered.

 In his opinion, the reserve of knowledge determines the upper limit of the joke shop and the amount of money distributed. It also determines whether you can live a leisurely life while lying down and divide the money.

Of course he could give Fred and George a try, but Albert still felt that Fred, George and Lee Jordan needed to step up their own game.

 As for how to...convince them, Albert is very experienced in this area.

 After all, he is half a magician.

  Sometimes, working hard for your own ideals and goals is more motivation than anything else.

 So…

In short, Albert feels that he has the potential to be a life coach. He persuades others in one way and easily convinces them (foolishly).

Since May has passed, the exams are approaching. Students have to endure the temptation outside the castle and force their brains to work hard. Even Fred and George are working hard to prepare for the upcoming O.W.Ls exam.

As the exam approaches, various weird exam syndromes become more and more prominent.

Percy, the President of the Student Union, became increasingly irritable and irritable. He severely punished anyone who disturbed the tranquility of the common room at night.

Katrina of Ravenclaw likes to come over and discuss the so-called key points of the exam with Albert in their spare time. Digory also has this habit, as if they are sure that the key points mentioned by Albert will be passed in the exam.

Hufflepuff Patricia Stinson broke down again, crying over the Transfiguration Charm and saying she was stupid and couldn't learn anything.

 Slytherin is promoting to others how difficult the O.W.Ls exam is, and saying that so and so used what to get excellent results in the O.W.Ls exam.

He is so insidious that he wants to lead people into a pit.

Some people are increasingly interested in asking about other people’s review time, which is very annoying.

 Everyone prepares for the O.W.Ls exam in different ways.

In order to completely stimulate the fighting spirit of the three of them, Albert generously offered that if their O.W.Ls test scores were good, he would invite them to watch the Quidditch World Cup during the summer vacation (Blake wanted to give Albert some World Cup tickets), and he could also help along the way. Predicting the outcome of the World Cup final.

Fred, George and Lee Jordan all understood, which meant that they could make a fortune together.

 In the past, Albert was very accurate in making bets with others. If he added predictions, it would be a sure-fire business.

Three-pronged approach, the three people's enthusiasm for learning was completely stimulated. Taking the same purple candies given by Albert, they worked hard to review every day. In the evening, they even checked each other and recited the key knowledge that needed to be memorized.

Of course, the three of them are also very smart. They spend most of their time consolidating the subjects they are good at. Although they are suspected of being seriously partial to subjects, they are much better than facing the O.W.Ls exam casually.

 Lately, Katrina seemed to be on fire, and she always liked to discuss important points with him, as if she would not stop until she had given him all twelve courses.

For this reason, she also took out a big killer weapon and invited Isobel to persuade Albert to obey.

Albert actually wanted Katrina to go back and learn Legilimency from Isobel, so that she wouldn't have to worry about the written exam.

Fred, George and Li Jordan actually wanted to learn it, but the three of them just couldn't learn it, otherwise they wouldn't have to work so hard to memorize it.

Albert still remembered that one time when he returned to the dormitory, he saw Fred covering his ears with his fingers, his lips moving silently, and reciting the transformation notes over the years.

George, whose face was covered with notes, was lying on the bed reciting the definition of basic spells. Lee Jordan helped him check against "Standard Spells, Level Five". If he made a mistake, he would stick a note on George's face.

When the three of them saw Albert coming back, they stopped reciting. They threw the books away and took a bottle from the bedside table to ask Albert.

 “How many more of these do you have?”

 “We all think this thing will be very popular.”

 The three of them were talking one sentence at a time, which gave Albert a little headache.

“There is only the last bottle left of that thing, and it will be gone after eating it.” Albert said, “So I’m going to let you save some at the beginning.”

 “Then can you get more, and you can take the opportunity to make a lot of money.”

 “No, I’m not available at the moment.” Albert said.

 “How to do it? Do you want us to give it a try?” George suggested.

"Making potions requires a certain level of potion skills. With your current level of potions, you still can't make this thing." Albert knew very well the potion levels of Fred, George and Li Jordan. He shook his head and said, "You Now you know why I want you to study hard. Otherwise, even if I give you the formula and manufacturing method, you will not be able to make it. Even if you barely succeed, it will not achieve the effect you eat, and the quality will be poor. a lot of."

 “The ingredients are complicated?”

"What you are taking now is an improved version of the intelligence enhancer." Albert did not hide it, and continued: "There are several magic potions mixed in it. Didn't you realize that after eating it, not only the brain becomes more alert, but also the energy becomes more... It’s enough, so that the whole person’s mood becomes happy and the person becomes cheerful and confident?”

“Yes, it’s a bit like taking a Felixir, but the lasting effect is very short.”

This is actually the civilian version of the Elixir of Fortune. Although it is not as effective as the Elixir of Fortune, it can still add a positive buff to people, but I don’t know why, and the duration is very average.

“So, you’ve finished eating that thing?”

The three of them all looked a little embarrassed, and they looked away and did not dare to look at Albert.

 “Do you know what I call that thing?” Albert suddenly asked.

 “What’s it called?” the three asked curiously.

"IQ candy is used to fool others. Only stupid people with a lot of money will buy this stuff." Albert wordlessly took out a folder from his backpack, shook the thing in his hand and said, "Don't worry about that stuff. Come, come and take a look at this thing."

"What's this?"

"The key points of the exam." Albert threw the folder on the table and said, "It is said that as long as you can master it, you can basically do well in the exam."

 “As expected of Albert.”

The three of them immediately rushed towards the folder, fearing that it would spread its wings and fly away. After George picked up the things inside and flipped through them, he suddenly looked miserable. There were so many so-called key points. If he had memorized them all, he would have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.

 “Is there any key point among the key points?” Li Qiaodan asked in a low voice.

 “Why didn’t you ask if there were any test papers?”

“I don’t think it would be surprising if you actually got the test paper.”

 “Yes, it’s right behind.” Albert said.

The three of them turned over and found that they had indeed found the test paper. But when they took a closer look, they found that it was last year's test paper, and their expressions froze.

“Do you think we can sell this thing?”

The eyes of the three of them lit up and they continued, "We can organize these and sell them as examination materials to other people. For one galleons a copy, there will definitely be a lot of people willing to pay."

 “I think you’re going to get beaten.”

 “Who dares to hit us?”

 The next moment, a fist was enlarged in front of Fred, knocking him down on the bed.

 “You actually hit me.” Fred glared at George.

"Stop making trouble and review quickly. There are many opportunities to make money, so don't rush." ​​George shrugged, "But these handwritings don't seem to be yours."

“Well, no, Katrina sorted it out. I got a copy for you. Thank me very much.”

 “By the way, why did Mr. Anderson hook up with Katrina again?”

“Teacher Anderson, please teach me how to pick up a girlfriend.”

“There is no hope for you. Teacher Anderson is handsome enough, but you can’t match his handsomeness no matter how you look at her.”

 “Teacher Anderson, I really want to hit someone.”
