Talking about saving the salamanders was just a random excuse. Fred, George and Lee Jordan had bad intentions from the beginning.
As for how to take the salamander away?
In the last semester, the three of them had already thought about it seriously.
It's a pity that Professor Kettlebo stopped letting them come into contact with salamanders after the Care of Magical Creatures class, and they never found the opportunity to implement it.
Those original ideas have been retained until today when they have the opportunity to be implemented.
Naturally, the three of them would not miss this opportunity. Even without Albert's help, they could still "save" the Salamander.
Fred put a lot of effort into this, using the Transfiguration Spell to turn a branch into a glass bottle. George released a blue portable magic flame into the bottle. This was a magic he learned from Albert.
Lee Jordan stuffed the salamanders he caught from the campfire into the containers prepared by the twins.
For a salamander that was born in fire and feeds on fire, it can continue to live as long as the magic flame in the glass bottle does not go out.
To a certain extent, it is not wrong to call it a rescue, because as long as the salamanders whose blood is collected will basically die tragically at the hands of the students.
There is no way, the vast majority of students have not mastered the formal blood collection skills at all, and they are unable to save the life of the salamander after collecting blood.
However, for a salamander that only has a lifespan of six hours after leaving the fire, death is not terrible. It is the difference between dying early and dying a few hours later.
Professor Kettlebo paid no attention to the little actions of Fred and others in class. He probably thought that the three of them were going to catch a salamander and raise it. He kindly reminded him, "Magic flames are only suitable for transferring fire."
Lizards cannot provide food to salamanders for a long time. If you want to use magic flames to raise salamanders, it will only cause the salamanders to die of malnutrition."
"we know."
The three of them were a little embarrassed, but they still nodded seriously to show that they understood.
"Everyone should focus on learning how to draw blood from salamanders correctly now, because there are not many opportunities like this." Professor Kettlebo sat on the chair, looked around the crowd and said seriously, "I have seen too many people draw blood and just put it on fire.
Kill the lizard. This is actually a shameful waste. If the salamander survives after collecting blood, it can still continue to collect blood as long as it is raised in a campfire for a while. After all, firewood is burning in the fireplace in winter.
, it’s not a strange thing.”
Keeping several salamanders in the fireplace is a common thing for a Professor of Care of Magical Creatures. Hagrid has done this too. In Professor Kettlebo's fireplace, there is even a salamander that is several times larger than the ones here.
This huge pet is said to have been kept since he came to teach at Hogwarts.
Before the get out of class ended, Professor Kettlebo brought it out to open our eyes. He was really big and could spit out sparks from his mouth.
"By the way, the prize this time belongs to Mr. Anderson." Professor Kettlebo held up Albert's bottle of red fluorescent glass test tubes and announced the results happily, "Except for the first few that were killed, Mr. Anderson collected blood from
The salamanders are basically still alive."
The Professor of Care of Magical Creatures continued: "It is best to put the collected blood into a magical flame and preserve it to best maintain the effect of salamander blood. If it is stored directly in a bottle, the treatment and recovery of salamander blood will be better."
The function will gradually weaken, so most of the salamander blood needs to be stored in a special way, or used immediately after taking it."
"I remember a small bottle of... ten silica?" Fred looked at the test tube in his hand and muttered something.
"Don't be stupid. In Albert's words, if it's so easy to make money, why is it your turn?" Lee Jordan labeled the test tube with his own label and handed it to Professor Kettlebo.
"Is this thing really made of silver? Is it valuable?" George asked Albert as he fiddled with the bird and snake statue in his hand.
"Don't be stupid, even silver is not worth much." Albert looked at George speechlessly, this thing was more about its commemorative value.
After class, everyone put out the bonfire and hurried back to the lounge in the rain.
Then, I couldn't wait to take a hot shower, carefully clean off the dirt on my body, put on clean clothes, and ran to the fireplace in the lounge to warm myself and chat.
When Fred and George came to the lounge with glass bottles and were about to try giving fireworks to the salamanders, Wood appeared without warning and took them away for training.
"Wait, I remember we don't have Quidditch practice today." Fred shouted strugglingly.
"Oh, indeed not." Wood said with a smile, "However, Hufflepuff gave up training today and gave up the Quidditch pitch to us."
"How pitiful!" Albert looked out the window and sighed softly.
Obviously I had just come back from outside and was dragged out into the rain again. It is not surprising that I would get sick and catch a cold.
The rain became heavier again, and raindrops pattered on the windows of the castle.
Albert picked up the tea cup and took a sip of milk tea. After sending a message to Isobel using the communication bookmark, he took out a book and started reading. He spent three years on this crappy task of becoming a "reading maniac".
The time has not yet been completed, and the current task progress is stuck at 76, which is very close to 100."
"How about we give it a try." Li Jordan felt his hands were a little itchy and wanted to feed the firework to the salamander to see what effect it would have.
"Forget it." Albert said casually, "We'll try again after Fred and George come back. They have been looking forward to it for a long time."
"Oh fine!"
After Angelina and others went to the Quidditch field for training, Lee Jordan couldn't find anyone to chat with, so he took his homework and sat next to Albert and started working on it silently. Albert happened to be free.
, if you have any questions, you can ask him directly.
At this moment, Percy took a notice and posted it on Gryffindor's old notice board. It was the first Hogsmeade weekend of this semester, at the end of October.
For Albert and the others who often run to Hogsmeade, this thing no longer has much appeal to them.
However, it’s actually nice to be able to visit Hogsmeade, at least you don’t need to sneak there.
The happiest people about this were the third-year students. This was their first time going to Hogsmeade Village. Many of them gathered together and whispered about the interesting places in Hogsmeade Village.
They talked about the joke props in Saeki's joke shop and how to bring the joke props into school without being noticed by Filch.
This administrator has almost become the biggest villain in the school. I heard that he has a cold recently and has a particularly bad temper. He always likes to cause trouble for the students.
They seemed to be planning to find something for Filch to do so that he would not have time to cause trouble for everyone.
Albert paused while turning the pages of the book, listening intently to their brilliant plan, and was immediately speechless.
These guys planned to "accidentally" smear frog brains on the ceiling of the fifth basement classroom, causing Filch to spend a lot of time cleaning it up.
"I think throwing a few rotten eggs into Filch's office would be more fun than this," Lee Jordan muttered under his breath.
In fact, many students like to do the former to cause trouble for Filch. However, once Filch catches them on the spot, they will be ordered to clean up.
