"Sorry, I accidentally eavesdropped on your conversation..."
As the moving stairs came to a stop, Hermione jumped down from the steps lightly and deftly.
"What I wanted to say when I left the lounge, but I just missed the stairs... I can help you turn on the remote conferencing function of the student handbook."
"Remote... switching? What's the student handbook?" Mr. Weasley also turned to look at Hermione.
"The Hogwarts Student Handbook, the magic book given to every student at the beginning of school."
Ginny replied, taking out her magic book from her satchel and shaking it towards Mr. and Mrs. Weasley.
Different from the books sold at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore, this "magic book" is inlaid with a fiery ruby gemstone on the front and gold threads on the four corners.
The outline of Hogwarts Castle is lightly printed on the front cover where the gem is located, and there is an exquisitely designed groove on the exquisitely bound spine.
Click.
As Ginny's fingers slid across the spine of the book, the wand stored in it popped up flexibly from the groove.
Immediately afterwards, the afterimage of the Gryffindor emblem flashed in the center of the fiery red gem, and the magic book floated out of thin air at a height of two to three centimeters in the palm of her hand.
"Well - what should I do next?" Ginny looked at Hermione curiously.
As a young wizard of the new generation, she has no previous restrictions on the use of magic books. Even many senior students are not as familiar with the functions of magic books as she is.
Of course, compared to the Disciplinary Committee and the dean, Ginny is still a little immature and unfamiliar. After all, the four witch sisters hold an advanced version of the manual...
"It's very simple. I'll record your MID and turn it on temporarily."
Hermione took out her wand and waved it lightly, and her magic book floated beside her, turning to a certain page.
"let me see--"
"Ginny, you are in the first grade, Ron is in the second grade, Fred and George are in the fourth grade, Percy is in the sixth grade, Charlie and Bill are in the Master of Magic class..."
Hermione's eyes followed Ginny's face and glanced to the side, and nodded gently thoughtfully, "In that case, at least three remote conference interfaces must be opened-"
"Dad, you can come to my place and I will connect with Percy. George and Fred are exactly two books, which adds up to exactly three. Right?"
Ginny rolled her eyes and followed Hermione's words without thinking, staring at her twin brothers.
"Me?" Fred pointed at himself in astonishment, and immediately reacted quickly, "Wait, why didn't mom go to Charlie and Bill's place?!"
As he spoke, he glanced at George, and George immediately understood.
"Well, we still have three more years in school, but Bill and Charlie may only have this one chance, so I think-"
"Because you two are closest to the O.W.L.s exam," Charlie said. He patted George on the shoulder and said sincerely, "My eldest brother and I have long passed the age where our parents have to worry about us."
"That's not necessarily true - at least Fred and I are not single now." George stabbed her in the back without hesitation and quickly moved closer to Mrs. Weasley.
"Mom, I heard that there are many single witches in the Master of Magic class with quite good personal conditions. This parent-teacher meeting is a rare opportunity..."
Mrs. Weasley's eyes changed several times, looking at Bill and Charlie thoughtfully, her face became serious.
Yes, the eldest child and the second child have not found a relationship yet, and this problem is more serious than that of the other little ones.
"George?!" Charlie raised his eyebrows, like a fire dragon gathering momentum.
"We need to have a good chat." Bill's casual smile disappeared instantly.
"Ahem, wait a minute, kids." At this moment, Mr. Weasley finally found the opportunity to intervene and asked in confusion, "Can anyone explain what a remote meeting is?"
"To put it simply, it is a high-level applied magic based on transfiguration, which is roughly like this -"
Hermione tapped her magic book gently and opened Ginny's permissions according to the method Elena told her before.
The next moment, a lifelike three-dimensional holographic light and shadow of little Ginny appeared above the page Hermione opened.
At the same time, on the other side, an orange ball-like shadow appeared next to Ginny.
"The Hogwarts student handbook has a built-in magic photo recording function, so that when students want to review and consolidate their learning content after class, they can choose to replay it."
Hermione glanced at the growing crowd around her and rubbed her temples helplessly, "Oh my god, you didn't pay attention to the exchange table at the back of the student handbook at all, did you?"
"Exchange table? But up there..."
Ron opened his magic book in confusion and quickly flipped to the points redemption area at the end.
Compared with Diagon Alley and the scattered and uneven distribution of goods in Hogsmeade Village, the things listed above are almost all students' favorite shopping places.
As a master chess player in last year's "Defense Against the Dark Arts Practical Assessment", he used his superb wizard chess skills to score a lot of points, so that this year's initial score was quite high.
However, most of his points were mainly invested in various top-level wizarding chess games and peripheral purchases of famous Quidditch stars around the world...
I have almost never touched the redemption options in the magic book enhancement column - most of them are expensive and difficult to understand, and they seem a bit unclear, such as what the spell page is.
Hermione rolled her eyes speechlessly, and gently touched the pages of the book with her wand, projecting a scene of pages in mid-air.
She glanced at the classmates around her who were flipping through books, and finally understood why Elena told her to appear when there were many people.
"Subsequently, the Magic Network Temporary Interaction Agreement, this upgrade in basic functions, item 21, redeem points, 120 points."
"Magic audio and video synchronization, this is also a basic function, item 37, redeem points, 80 points."
"Well, if you need it, you can exchange it for a junior magic eye——"
Hermione looked at the Weasleys who were flipping through books, and like a salesperson enthusiastically selling, she pointed at the orange fur ball next to Ginny.
"This is the fifteenth in the enhanced category. The redemption points are... Hey, 280 points - why is it so expensive?"
"Well, all in all, after they activate these functions, your problems should be solved."
Hermione shook her head and ignored the Weasleys who were heartbroken about their points. She turned to look at the Weasleys who seemed to have opened the door to a new world and said with a smile.
"The binary rewind structure transformation magic allows you to project to those classrooms that you cannot visit in person, and the magic light and shadow synchronization and interaction can complete real-time communication between the two parties.
"In this way, even if Ginny, Ron and their brothers and sisters are located on different floors of Hogwarts, you can still have an overview of the whole situation..."
With the appearance of Hermione, the focus of the conversation quickly shifted away from Lucius Malfoy.
After finding a more wonderful and convenient solution, not even Mrs. Weasley turned her head to look at Old Malfoy again.
After all, she's more likely to study her children's magic books to solve problems than some posturing school board member.
snort--
As expected of Weasley, who loves Muggles, and a little witch from the Muggle world who loves to show off...
Lucius Malfoy stood awkwardly on the edge of the crowd for a few seconds, glanced at the little witch gathered in the center, and let out an inexplicable snort, "It seems Weasley has found a way.
It’s better to go directly to the classroom, it’s too noisy here.”
