Just a few minutes later, the owl phalanx left as quickly as it came, taking away the happiness in the living room.
Ron Weasley turned his head blankly and looked at the pile of packages piled next to the table. The only difference between them and the common packages was that they all had a striking silver-white wing emblem on the surface.
The silver-white wings stretch backwards, and behind them is a blue background like the sky.
"Sister's will." Ron whispered.
An ominous premonition suddenly arose in his heart. Seeing this familiar logo when the summer vacation was about to be halfway through, gave him an unconscious sense of fear, a kind of oppression that was similar but completely different from when he faced his mother.
feel.
Whenever the Big Sister's logo lights up, it usually means someone is going to be unlucky.
And as the packages in the pile were unpacked one after another, this ominous premonition turned into despair and descended on the Burrow.
Books, all books.
If we want to break it down a little, we can probably classify it into magic textbooks, non-magic textbooks... as well as a complete set of exercise books and summer general knowledge quizzes, as well as some recommended reading and reference books to expand your knowledge.
Every child of the Weasley family received such a gift, and the whole family was organized without exception.
George Weasley and Fred Weasley had already turned into stone statues and froze in their respective seats. Their eyes had lost focus, looking confused and confused. They really didn't know where they had offended Miss Kaslana.
.
On the other side, Mrs. Weasley didn't know when she had received the children's letters and said in a joyful tone.
"Professor Dumbledore and Elena are so considerate."
"These are the textbooks, teaching aids, summer homework for all the children in the next semester, as well as the course adjustment direction after the new curriculum reform at Hogwarts next year. Arthur, this not only saves the family a huge amount of money, but also
It’s a kind of attention!”
"Hey, there's also Ron's, well... he actually made a study plan based on the Quidditch training time."
Listening to his mother's voice, Ron's eyes gradually began to lose focus.
Percy Weasley glanced at his dazed brothers, sneered in his heart and shook his head.
"What a group of guys who don't seek to make progress. This is a shortcut to higher places, and they actually have the time to complain."
"But if you think about it carefully, even if next year's curriculum will be adjusted a bit, it shouldn't be too difficult. It just adds some general courses that Muggles can also learn. The symbolic significance of this help is probably far greater than the actual benefits.
improvement.”
Percy looked at the new courses on his envelope and glanced at his two brothers beside him.
Just as he thought, both Bill and Charlie were more surprised at the need to return to Hogwarts for further studies. As for what courses they would take, most of them did not show much concern.
.
They can get straight A's in magic courses, how difficult can it be for some imported Muggle knowledge?
At the same time, the names of the new courses and reference book lists also appeared in his eyes, and Percy read in a low voice.
"New main subject, mathematics, as for reference textbooks..."
…………
""Tutorial on Calculus" by Feihejin Goerz, "Mathematical Analysis" by Zorich, "Tutorial on Advanced Mathematics" by Smirnov... Hey, this book is a collection of after-school exercises prepared by the school, "Exercises on Mathematical Analysis"
Episode "Jimidovich?"
Dr. Granger's home in London, England.
Mr. Granger looked at the book list in his hand and checked the names of the pile of books that appeared in the living room with his daughter.
Shortly after the holidays began, Hermione begged Mr. Granger to hire a tutor for her math lessons.
Unfortunately, in less than one class, Mr. Granger discovered that this so-called outstanding graduate did not seem to be able to meet his daughter's needs very well. According to Hermione, the tutor could not even teach the most basic calculus.
clear.
What makes Mr. Granger even more incredible is that this seems to be the basic teaching arrangement for Hogwarts in the next semester.
And with her father's explanation and several correspondences with Elena, Hermione finally understood.
It turns out that the math curriculum for "ordinary Muggle middle school students" mentioned by a certain white-haired dumpling was not at all what she thought was the standard in the UK, but the learning content for non-magical students in the former Soviet Union on the other side of the continent.
.
Unfortunately, at this time point, the Soviet Union had just disintegrated, and not so many experts had transferred to the UK.
Fortunately, as an excellent Cambridge Master of Biology and a well-known dentist in the London area, Mr. Granger has a pretty good foundation in mathematics. It is not difficult to tutor his daughter who has just entered the first grade.
However, due to her busy work schedule, Hermione could only spend more time studying by herself.
After learning about Hogwarts' curriculum adjustments for the next semester and the basic learning levels of the wizarding world, Mr. Granger's anxiety also dissipated a lot. The wizarding world is indeed different. In the first grade, he starts directly from advanced mathematics.
Already.
In this way, when Hermione graduates from that magic school, whether she wants to work in the wizarding world or continue her studies in a non-magical university, it will be extremely flexible, and she will not have to follow one path to the end.
The only thing that's a little strange is...
Mr. Granger put down the letter in his hand, frowned slightly, and said to himself.
"Why are these books written by mathematicians from the former Soviet Union?"
"Could it be that the professors who will teach Hermione next year are all wizards who have studied in the former Soviet Union? Although it seems that there is indeed a slight advantage in the field of mathematics at present, but the problem of language barrier also depends on magic...
…”
…………
Scotland, Loch Lomond.
Just after eight o'clock in the morning, Dumbledore appeared in the orphanage on time.
In front of him, there was Elena who had packed her luggage and was bidding farewell to Father Benitez. She also put on an elegant dark windbreaker and was quietly watching Elena and Benite.
Sri Lanka's first Dark Lord.
Dumbledore nodded towards Benitez, turned to look at Elena, and said in a gentle tone.
"It's almost time, Elena, we should set off. Have you packed all your things?"
"Don't worry, Jose and I helped this girl tidy up last night."
Grindelwald grinned and patted Benitez's strong shoulder with emotion.
"Don't be too sad. I will take good care of Elena. If you miss her later, as the castle administrator and part-time substitute professor of Hogwarts, I still have the right to open the back door for you. As for now, I
It’s time to go with her…”
"Ahem, Gale, we mean Elena and I."
Before Grindelwald could finish speaking, Dumbledore cleared his throat politely, pointed at himself and Elena, and added softly in a calm and polite tone.
.
"Newt is hiding in a safe house in Dorset, so you can't go."
"Albus, are you kidding? This joke is not funny at all..."
The smile on Grindelwald's face gradually disappeared, and his eyebrows slowly raised.
Dumbledore blinked, glanced meaningfully at the stiff-faced first-generation Dark Lord, and said calmly.
"There are many strange creatures in Mr. Scamander's place. I have to admit that the intuition of some magical creatures is sometimes beyond our understanding. And the most important thing is that you still remember the first time you...
Well... Anyway, today is Elena's first time at Newt's house, so I think it's better to try not to cause any complications."
"……All right."
Grindelwald looked at the confused Benitez next to him and the heartless Tuanzi who looked like he was watching the excitement. He sighed deeply and finally did not persist any longer, although he was not afraid of Newt.
But that guy's intuition is too keen, and the animals in Newt Scamander are really difficult to deal with.
And on the other hand, Grindelwald naturally knew what Dumbledore was worried about.
After all, he suffered more than one or two secret losses from Newt Scamander back then. If he had any thoughts of revenge, let alone doing it himself or mobilizing a Hyperion, even if
Just the saints Grindelwald has gathered again now are enough to completely submerge that area with magic spells.
Today's first-generation Dark Lord, under the influence of Elena, has a much lower bottom line.
Not to mention, in terms of vengeance and willfulness, Grindelwald left a very deep impression on Dumbledore.
"Albus, this happened so many years ago. I'm not that stingy. Then let me say goodbye to this girl."
Grindelwald shrugged helplessly, thought for a moment, walked to Elena, knelt down, and touched the girl's head.
"When you stay at Mr. Newt Scamander's house, remember not to starve yourself. If you see something you like, eat more. You are still growing. Even if you encounter a more powerful magical animal,
Don't be afraid, if you can't beat it, just write it down secretly, and I'll help you find a way after school starts."
"The wasabi, minced garlic, millet pepper, soy sauce, aged vinegar, oyster sauce, pickled pepper, watercress, pepper, Sichuan peppercorns, and all kinds of weird spices you wanted before, I put them all in the suitcase for you. Originally,
I want to give you a surprise... but considering the current situation, I can only tell you in advance. The password to open the kitchen seasoning space is "
Grindelwald glanced at Dumbledore not far away, took out his wand and waved it lightly.
Immediately afterwards, a layer of invisible ripples instantly enveloped the two of them, blocking all sounds.
The first-generation Dark Lord possessed Elena's ear and whispered.
"Stewed that Sniff."
