In Hogwarts, if you are caught wandering after the gate hours at night, you will be deducted points and put in solitary confinement. However, Charles has Percy as a prefect to lead the way, and Dumbledore has written a note. Filch can only
I can let them go in frustration.
Percy just led the way and went back after the door to the principal's office opened.
Charles walked into the principal's office curiously and a little worried, wondering why Dumbledore was looking for him. Was it because the Sorting Hat said he should go to Azkaban, or because he wanted to find a piece of land to grow things, or maybe it was because he wanted to go to Azkaban.
Is it related to Harry Potter classmates?
The principal's office was very lively. As soon as Charles walked in, he found the principals hanging on the wall looking at him curiously.
Dumbledore asked him to sit down on the chair in front of his desk, pushed a plate of cockroaches in front of him, and asked with a smile: "Want some?"
"Thank you." Charles picked one up and ate it. Not to mention it was a candy shaped like a cockroach. It's not like he had never drank the new recovery fluid.
What Dumbledore said was somewhat beyond his expectation: "Charles, can I take the liberty of asking a question? I heard that you have a talent for divination?"
When Charles heard about this, he immediately replied: "There is such a thing. Occasionally, I look like I am in a daze, and I feel like I am dreaming and seeing some fragments."
"But what I often see are related things around me, such as tomorrow's weather."
Dumbledore looked surprised and asked him again: "Will everything you see happen?"
Charles shook his head and said: "I once saw a neighbor who was hit by a car and flew up when he went out the next day, but his wife fell in the bathroom that night and hurt her head, and she was in the hospital for several days.
Harry and I also helped him feed his dog."
Dumbledore nodded, waved the Elder Wand and poured him a cup of tea before asking: "Malfoy said you had predicted an accident at his home?"
Charles understood. It seemed that the bombing of Malfoy Manor was quite a big deal. The investigation was very thorough and even this matter was found.
He scratched his head in embarrassment and said cautiously: "Actually, I didn't know that his home was bombed at first. I saw a very beautiful house being bombed a minute or two before he entered the carriage.
A middle-aged man looked very angry next to the ruins."
"Later Malfoy walked into the carriage, and I saw that he looked very similar to the middle-aged man, so I thought it should be his home."
"Of course, if Malfoy looks like his neighbor, then there's nothing I can do about it."
Dumbledore listened very carefully at first, but when he heard the last sentence, the corners of his mouth twitched.
He said: "This is really an amazing talent. I think you can start learning divination with Professor Trelawney."
However, Charles shook his head and said: "No, divination will bring a lot of trouble. For a while, the family received 26 calls asking about the weather every hour."
He felt that Dumbledore might not know what a phone was, so he gave an example: "It's like an owl coming to you in less than three minutes."
Dumbledore didn't press hard when he heard what he said, and said: "I very much agree with Mr. Smith's words. There are many intersections on the road of life. It's not that we old people think which road is right. This road
It’s suitable for young people. If you change your mind or have some hesitation in the future, you can come and talk to me.”
"If you see something that is difficult for you to understand in the future, it's best to tell me."
Charles agreed immediately.
The matter was settled, and Dumbledore asked him another question: "I heard Professor Sprout say, do you want to plant something in the wasteland?"
"Yes, yes!" Charles nodded happily immediately, "I think growing those plants is quite interesting."
Dumbledore said seriously: "But it's also dangerous! I think Professor Sprout should have told you."
Charles replied: "Yes, I also noticed it when I was reading today. I will do my best."
"I saw a plant called moondew flower from a book. Can I plant it?"
Dumbledore raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Do you see its use?"
Charles laughed a little sheepishly.
In addition to being used to make uplifting potions and other potions, moondew flowers can also be used to make extra sweet butter beer. According to his current level as a first-year student, he doesn't know how to make potions, but there is no way to sweeten butter beer.
problem, and it is more attractive to young people than potions.
Dumbledore thought that Charles was just a first-year student from a Muggle family who was full of curiosity about the magical world. There were many such students, so he didn't pay much attention to it, so he said to him: "No matter what you want to plant, you need to get it."
With permission of Professor Plaut."
Charles immediately agreed with a smile and received the principal's nod, which made it easier to handle in the future.
Then what Dumbledore was about to mention made Charles feel nervous: "You seem... to have a good appetite?"
Charles asked nervously: "Principal, do you want me to pay an extra meal fee?"
"No, no, no!" Dumbledore immediately shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter if you have a good appetite. I just thought of a possibility. Are you hungry now?"
Charles shook his head twice, then nodded a little sheepishly and replied: "Yes, there are some. I prepared some food for dinner."
Dumbledore thought for a moment and said easily: "Although your situation is very rare, it is not a big problem. Problems that can be solved by eating are not problems."
Charles asked in embarrassment: "How long will I have to eat?"
"I don't know." Dumbledore said bluntly.
Charles was stunned. He thought Dumbledore was an omniscient being.
Dumbledore pointed to the teapot in front of him and said: "The wizard's magic is like the water in the teapot. It needs to be replenished when it is not full. Your 'teapot' is much larger than that of ordinary wizards. I'm afraid I can't compare to you, so
You spend a lot of money replenishing your magic power every day."
Charles finally understood that if others were a teapot, he would be a bucket.
He suddenly thought of a possibility, so he asked: "Is it possible that... I have a water leak?"
If the water is not full, not only that the container is too big, but also because there is a "Xiao Ming" who is filling the water and slapping the water at the same time.
Dumbledore thought deeply, which made Charles a little worried. Could he really be a leaky pot?
Not wanting to disturb the principal's thinking, Charles began to look around the principal's office.
The principals on the wall were chattering, and they sounded like they were discussing whether he was a colander or a big water tank.
Phoenix Fox was standing on the shelf, looking at Charles unkindly.
After a long time, Dumbledore said: "Your worries are reasonable, but the possibility is not high. If magic power is leaked, many strange things will happen around you."
After hearing this, Charles felt relieved. As long as it was not a colander, he would eat more at most. Anyway, the principal did not ask him to pay for the food.
Dumbledore thought for a moment, took the parchment and wrote a note to him, saying: "If you are hungry, you can go to the kitchen to find something to eat. You can ask the two Mr. Weasleys how to get to the kitchen." Charles took the note with a smile. From now on, if you go on a night tour in the castle, you can say that you got lost in the canteen.
