"The popularity of Wizard Cards is gradually losing. You should have gone over to host the Wizard Card Club in person last month. Didn't you see how disappointed those girls were when they found out you were not there? Many people thought you had given up on Wizard Cards."
In the window seat of the Gryffindor common room, Lee Jordan, who was playing wizard cards with Fred, was complaining to Albert about throwing the wizard card club to him.
"If the wizard cards are not popular with players, then this game is destined to not last." Albert reached out to touch Tom's head, flipped through the manuscript in his hand, and helped Isobel check part of the "Guide to Ancient Magic Texts". Occasionally,
I will also pick up the magic wand to make modifications on the manuscript and use other colors to mark it.
"I think you should play the wizard card." Li Jordan felt that Albert himself didn't care about the wizard card very much anymore, so he reminded him, "Don't forget, we will be in seventh grade next semester, and we will be in seventh grade soon.
After you graduate from school, when you lose your support and no one inherits the Wizard Card Club, Wizard Cards will soon disappear from the school and be forgotten by people, and all our efforts over the past few years will be in vain."
"Didn't you deal with this matter last semester?" Albert asked doubtfully.
"My words won't work as well as yours. So, I think it's best for you to handle this matter yourself." Lee Jordan was very depressed, but he had to admit that a large part of the reason for the popularity of Wizard Cards in school was
Because of Albert, it’s really hard to say how long the club can last once Albert lets it go.
"Perhaps, we should start organizing the competition now to avoid conflicts with the subsequent Triwizard Tournament. As for the championship reward, in addition to Galleons, there will be an additional reward."
"What extra bonus?"
"It's a good idea to dance with Albert at the Christmas Ball. It will definitely attract a lot of girls."
Albert raised his head suddenly, glared at Fred who proposed this bad idea, and reminded angrily: "I have a dance partner."
"What does it matter? I'm not your dance partner, not to mention you have to dance at the Christmas ball. The extra reward is to dance with you not only one dance, but three dances." George just stood and talked without pain in his back. "I dare you.
Bet, there will definitely be a lot of girls willing to participate in the competition and fight for the chance to dance with you."
"I also think this is a good idea. Just sacrifice your appearance a little. Anyway, a dance only lasts a few minutes. I will post a notice later to inform everyone of the good news." Li Jordan clapped his hands together, happily
The plan was finalized.
"Tom, tickle him and get extra food tonight."
Albert directed Fat Cat Tom to launch a surprise attack on Lee Jordan, and a scream suddenly sounded in the common room.
The originally noisy lounge suddenly fell into silence. The students turned their heads and looked here, as if they were curious about what happened just now.
"Ahem, it's okay, I was scratched by a cat."
Lee Jordan apologized awkwardly to everyone. He was just shocked. He didn't expect the chubby Tom to move so quickly that his arms were bleeding from scratches.
Fred and George laughed heartlessly.
However, they all felt that this was indeed a good idea. The best way to make the wizard card popular again was to use Albert's popularity, which would definitely attract a large group of girls.
As long as there are girls joining the wizard card club, boys will naturally be willing to join, and with more and more people joining, members who have gradually given up will naturally pick up the wizard cards and come back again.
After all, games are only fun when everyone plays together.
"Don't be so harsh, your arms are bleeding." Lee Jordan directed his fire at the gloating Weasley twins, "Fred and George didn't even see you angry even though they were selling love potions."
"Ahem." George coughed lightly and tried to change the subject, "Who is the next manager of the Wizard Card Club?"
"By the way, how many love potions have you sold these days?" Lee Jordan did not fall for the trick and continued to ask.
"Thirty-seven copies. Many girls in the school bought one with galleons." Fred said proudly, "Of course, we also sell the antidote to the love potion."
George put his hands over his face. Fred was such an idiot. He was so complacent.
Although selling love potions and antidotes did earn them a sum of Galleons, you can't say in front of Albert that they were not fooled by Lee Jordan?
"Is the love potion you made really reliable?" Lee Jordan expressed doubts about this. Neither Fred nor George could participate in Professor Snape's potion improvement class. How dare anyone buy the potion they prepared?
"Let me tell you, we borrowed Albert's potions notes and found the recipe for the love potion. It is easier to brew the potion than other recipes," Fred said proudly.
Then, another scream echoed in the common room.
This time, Lee Jordan was full of gloating. He ignored Fred and George, threw down the wizard cards and stood up, "I'm going to write an announcement and tell everyone the good news."
"That bastard actually ran away. I almost won with great difficulty!" Fred said through gritted teeth as he stared at the wizard card in his hand.
"I don't know when the rain will stop. I feel like my whole body is going moldy recently." George looked at the pouring rain outside the window and quickly changed the topic. "I heard that Professor Moody used the Imperius Curse on students in class. He said
It is to let everyone experience the feeling of being controlled by the Imperius Curse so that they can learn how to resist the Imperius Curse."
When talking about this, George glanced at Albert secretly, and found that he had no reaction, and continued: "I think about it after a while, it may be our turn. Do you think Dumbledore will agree to Professor Moody's doing this?"
?"
"I don't know, but Professor Moody's starting point should be good. At least he can teach everyone how to resist the Imperius Curse." Albert didn't beat him to death with a stick. He actually wanted everyone to experience the feeling of being controlled by the Imperius Curse.
It is necessary to contact at least in a safe and reliable manner.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "I didn't expect you to agree with his approach." George was a little surprised.
"Is there a problem?"
"No."
"However, I will not give others the opportunity to use the Imperius Curse on me." Albert took out a package of dried fish from his pocket, tore open the package and placed it on the table.
"You still suspect there's something wrong with him?"
During this period of observation, Fred did not see anything wrong with Professor Moody, and he rarely even saw him drinking from the curved wine bottle.
"I won't take risks." Albert said calmly: "When the time comes, I will find an excuse to ask for leave. Well, I remember that you seem to have quick-acting truant candy."
"What effect do you want?"
"Have you got the fever candy ready?" Albert asked.
"No problem, we've tested it." Fred assured.
"It seems like your style." George was not surprised. He looked around to make sure no one was eavesdropping. He quietly released the earplugs to listen to the spell and whispered: "Who do you think that guy is in disguise? I
I know you must know something."
"It's useless to tell you. You just know that guy is a fake." Albert had no intention of telling the three people the truth. He told them that Professor Moody was a fake, just to let them guard against each other.
"I think he looks quite similar."
"If it doesn't look like it, Dumbledore would have discovered it a long time ago. How could he still be teaching in the school?" George looked at Albert and asked, "Actually, I'm more curious about the method Albert used to spot the impostor.
The flaw."
"Is this important?" Fred thought that Albert would not tell them, so he suggested, "I think we should take some time to practice magic and strengthen our practical capabilities."
"I heard that if you are controlled by the Imperius Curse many times, you will become resistant to that spell." Albert smiled maliciously at the two of them, "How about it, do you want to try it?"
"Didn't you listen to Professor Moody?" Fred looked at Albert with some surprise, "If you use the Imperius Curse on someone, you will be sent to Azkaban Prison."
"Just don't let them know." George also felt that it was quite boring recently. They only took three classes and spent most of their time studying joke props.
"Come and do assault training with me another day!" Albert said without thinking.
"We should really strengthen our defense against black magic." After Fred and George looked at each other, they both felt that this was a good idea. After all, if there is real turmoil in the magic world in a few years, they will be able to master more magic to protect themselves.
It's a good thing.
After Lee Jordan posted the news on the Gryffindor bulletin board that the Wizarding Cards would hold an early competition, several girls came to Albert to ask about the ball.
"Look at the good thing you did." Albert glared at Li Jordan with dissatisfaction. After patiently sending the girls away, he immediately packed up his things and prepared to leave. He didn't want to be pestered by a group of girls asking about this matter.
.
"Albert, please wait a moment."
When Albert picked up the fat cat Tom and was about to duck into the stairs, a voice called him from behind.
"Hermione, is something wrong?" Albert stopped and turned to ask.
"Dumbledore asked me to give this to you." Hermione hurried over and handed the note to Albert while panting.
"Professor Dumbledore?" Albert signed the note suspiciously, and after opening it, he saw it read:
Dear Albert:
Please come to my office next Wednesday at eight o'clock in the evening.
I wish you a happy life
Albus Dumbledore
Also: I like cockroaches.
That's it?
Albert looked at the message on the parchment and fell into a brief silence. He put the parchment into his pocket, smiled at Hermione and said, "Thank you, Hermione."
"Um...can you take me to the kitchen sometime?" Hermione looked at Albert with pleading eyes.
"You don't want to rush into the kitchen and mobilize the house elves to stop working, do you?" Albert looked into Hermione's eyes and said in a joking tone.
"No, I didn't plan to do that. I just wanted to find out the location of the kitchen and see the situation of the house elves." Hermione looked away. She felt that Albert's gaze was very aggressive, which made her
A little uncomfortable.
"I have to remind you." Albert knew that Hermione just wanted to get some information first, "If you do that, believe me, not only will you not be grateful, but you will also become the object of disgust for the house elves."
"I know." Hermione said awkwardly. She felt that Albert had seen through her thoughts, so she reminded her like that.
"The kitchen is at the bottom of the hall, and the entrance is hidden behind the painting of a bowl of fruit. Just scratch the pear and it will laugh, and the door handle will appear. Push the door open and you will find the kitchen.
"Albert told Hermione the location of the kitchen.
"Thank you." Hermione turned and walked away.
"You shouldn't have told Hermione where the kitchen is." Fred looked at Hermione's leaving back and said, "I always felt that she was planning to mobilize the house elves to rebel."
"You should convince her, I believe you can do it." George said.
"I've tried, but I never feel like I can convince anyone, especially those stubborn people. It's too difficult to convince them." Albert shook his head.
"You just convinced the three of us."
"Hermione is very immature and stubborn. She will never wake up unless she suffers some hardships. And even if I don't tell her where the kitchen is, she will find it sooner or later." Albert could see it.
That's cool. Maybe once Hermione gets all the looks from the house elves, she will calm down and reconsider whether her actions are reasonable.
"I hope she won't make the house elves unwilling to work." George also disagreed with Hermione's approach.
"No, if she promotes those things among house elves, she will probably be regarded as the most unpopular person!" Albert said and returned to the dormitory. He actually still admired Hermione's approach, maybe it was
Because he is an adult himself and a time traveler, Albert usually takes the initiative to avoid disaster and protect himself, instead of being as stubborn as Hermione.
To be honest, Albert was more concerned about what Dumbledore wanted to do with him than the problems with his house elves.
The relationship between the two parties was not bad, but that was all. Albert usually took the initiative to avoid Dumbledore, and the two parties did not have many interactions.
There aren't many things that would make the other party come to him. It might be the Triwizard Tournament, it might be divination, or it might be because of the information he leaked through Harry and Sirius.
Although Dumbledore didn't really believe in divination, if he could peek into the crystal ball, he might be able to make some judgments about what might happen next.
Well, if Dumbledore asked, how should I answer?
Give him some tips?
A smart person like Dumbledore is definitely more willing to trust his own judgment.
Albert felt that it was best for him to be conservative and mention Voldemort's conspiracy to let Dumbledore continue to doubt Moody. He believed that without evidence, the principal would not take action against his old friend. At most, it would be a little test, Crouch Jr.
Definitely enough to hold it.
He also needs to use Crouch to collect the rewards from the panel mission. If he accidentally kills someone, his panel mission will also be finished.
