Hearing Wood talk about the news about his former companions, Fred and George looked at each other and fell into a brief silence.
Of course they know what Mario, Danny and Jack's dreams are.
The former acrobatic trio hoped to form a circus and perform public performances around the world. However, the reality was so cruel that without enough financial support, their dream had just begun.
What about their own dreams?
Open a joke shop!
How much does that cost?
Fred and George didn't know, they hadn't even investigated this matter yet, but it was definitely not something that could be achieved with tens of Galleons.
They need to rent a shop, advertise, and their products require raw materials and technology. Moreover, they have no Galleons and experience, and they may mess things up. If they don't have any luck, their dream will be over before it even begins.
Already.
In fact, it would be almost impossible for the twins to raise a full hundred galleons before graduation.
Having no money can be so cruel sometimes.
Now, the twins understood why Albert always said that money is really important sometimes.
The two of them looked at Albert at the same time, and suddenly felt that they were lucky. Albert had said that he would help them, and because he would never let himself lose money, he asked Fred and George to open a joke shop after graduation.
Full of confidence, perhaps full of confidence in Albert.
It’s great to have such friends!
They are also lucky.
Of course, Albert didn't know what Fred and George were thinking. He was eating and responding casually to Wood's question about Quidditch.
Wood is really optimistic about Harry and thinks that this year's Quidditch championship will belong to Gryffindor House.
Harry was a little embarrassed and deserved to eat.
He knew that his position originally belonged to Albert. Although Albert didn't seem to want it,... Wood praised him like this, which still made Harry feel a little uncomfortable.
"Although I like flying, Quidditch is not suitable for me because I don't have that much time to train with everyone." Albert looked at Harry's appearance and said calmly: "However, there is one thing you need to pay attention to.
Don't put yourself in a position where you can't play."
"This is an early warning."
"Early warning?"
"Yes, forewarning." Fred frowned and reminded, "Although you may think it's exaggerated, what Albert says is usually accurate. You need to be careful."
"Yes, Harry, you need to be careful of those bastards from the Slytherin team. In order to win, most of the time they will do whatever it takes." When Wood heard what Albert said, he immediately reacted and reminded Harry aloud.
"No, no, Wood, the Slytherin team has always done whatever it takes to win." Lee Jordan interjected.
"If you have time, you can teach Harry how to use Mark's fake moves." George reminded.
"Mark's fake move?" Harry asked in confusion.
"That's an effective counterattack, especially when dealing with guys with bad personalities. You always need a little excuse to punch the opponent in the nose." Fred made a punching motion with his fist. "
Of course, since it’s a fake move, it won’t really hit anyone.”
"If he does get hit, it can only be considered bad luck." George shrugged.
Harry opened his mouth, speechless in surprise.
Lee Jordan's eyes fell on Albert, who stood up to leave, and asked aloud: "Where are you going?"
"I still have something to do, let's go first." Albert stood up and left.
"see you later!"
"Hell, is he going to the library just after dinner?" After Albert left, George couldn't help but muttered as he looked at the back of his friend's departure.
"Definitely not, I think he might have gone on a date?" Lee Jordan guessed.
"Should we follow?"
"That's a good idea."
The three curious guys quickly finished the food and left with Albert.
"What are they doing?" Ron asked confused.
"Maybe you want to... watch Albert go on a date?" Of course Wood also heard about Albert and felt that it was very bad for Fred and the others to do this.
Yes, very bad.
"A date?" Ron repeated, not sure what the word meant.
The three of them discovered that Albert was not going on a date, but returned directly to the Gryffindor common room, which greatly dampened their interest. They then prepared to go to the Room of Requirement to perfect the joke props. Now the trio's laboratory is here.
Lee Jordan works part-time as a tester for joke props, giving them some advice along the way.
"what happened?"
Seeing George bumping against the door, Fred stretched out his hand to pull him up from the ground and asked with a frown.
"You can't get in, there's someone inside." George said.
"Yes, I know!" Fred suddenly exclaimed.
"What do you know?"
"Do you think Albert will be in there? Don't forget, the Room of Requirement cannot appear on the map. Maybe they can hide in it and have a date, and they don't have to worry about being disturbed by others!"
George and Lee Jordan were stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that it made sense. Maybe Albert had told his girlfriend the secret of the Room of Requirement!
Yes, they must be dating inside, otherwise why couldn't they get in?
"But, how did he do it?" Lee Jordan was a little confused. Wasn't Albert in the common room?
"Don't forget, he can appear in two places at the same time." Fred touched his chin and reminded, "Only students who choose twelve subjects will know how to use the clone spell. Don't forget, that
The girl named Isobel McGonagall is also a genius, and she must be able to appear in two places at the same time."
No wonder they never caught the two of them dating.
Albert had no idea that his trick had been seen through.
Of course, even if he is seen through, he actually doesn't care. So what if he is seen through?
…
At this moment, Albert was standing at the entrance of the lounge, covering his face and watching the scene in front of him.
So, is this the reason why you haven’t been able to lose weight?
Tom was being held by the girl and being teased back and forth with a small dried fish.
I was actually fooled away by a little fish.
What a gluttonous guy.
"Miss Granger, it seems you have found your first friend."
"that……"
Hermione looked at Albert walking over, a little panicked, like a child who had made a mistake.
"Please be sure not to feed Tom anymore. Didn't you find that his weight is already overweight?" Albert looked at Hermione and said seriously.
"Sorry, I just..." Hermione lowered her head.
"Tom was spoiled by my grandfather and grandmother." Albert stretched out his hand to scratch the cat's ears and said helplessly: "I didn't pay attention, and it became so fat."
"Sorry!" Hermione's voice was even lower.
"Just don't do that in the future. I'm helping him lose weight recently. Maybe you can help." Albert slowed down his tone so as not to sound like he was bullying a child.
"What should I do?"
"Let it exercise more." Albert took out a cat teasing stick and waved it in front of Tom. The latter was immediately attracted to the cat and reached out to pick it.
"Give it a try."
Albert handed Hermione the cat teaser.
Hermione was a little reserved. She noticed the looks cast by others and took the cat teasing wand unnaturally.
"I'm very busy and never have much time to spend with Tom." Albert gently picked up the fat cat, touched its belly and said, "If you are free, help me take care of it, okay?"
"Okay, I will." Hermione looked at Albert and smiled brightly.
