I wanted to ask Hagrid about cross-species hybridization techniques. While reading the book, Aini was very curious about how Hagrid made those unrelated species combine.
Just how a manticore and a fire crab gave birth to a blast-tailed snail is still a mystery to Aini, who is now considered an expert in magical biology.
Unfortunately, the plan couldn't keep up with the change. Tom peed and Ani had to run back in a hurry.
Well, Tom is that blue cat. When he pees, only his head sticks out of his collar...
(ー`′ー)
I’m so angry!
One day you have to find a Jerry to teach you, Ani pointed Tom's little nose and made him angry.
Suddenly his eyes lit up. If he didn't wait until Tom got older and asked for Peter Pettigrew, he could first prepare a stamp with the word "Jerry" and stamp Peter with a hot iron...
"Scabbers!" Ron held down the scurrying mouse in the dormitory. He just took a piece of bread from the auditorium and wanted to tease Scabbers when he came back, but it suddenly went crazy.
"It's okay, Ron." Although his mind was racing now, Harry saw Ron's anxious look and comforted him: "My neighbor's wife has a lot of cats, and they have fun from time to time."
"Okay, it seems to be okay again. But Harry, Scabbers is a mouse." Ron looked at Scabbers who had calmed down, took a plate and put the bread on it.
After lunch, they wanted to ask Professor Scamander. He must know who Nick Flamel was. However, Hermione stopped him. But Hermione was right. It was really not polite to disturb others during lunch break.<
/p>
After agreeing to visit together at 3 o'clock, the three of them returned to the lounge.
After feeding the mouse, Ron found that Harry had fallen asleep - he hadn't slept much in the past two days and was too sleepy.
Let him sleep for a while.
Ron thought, I can wake him up when the time comes.
So after opening the door, Aini saw the little witch standing alone in the cold wind.
After entering the door, Hermione saw seven or eight open books scattered on the sofa and coffee table. The single sofa next to it bowed to Hermione and invited her to sit on him.
"Sorry, Hermione, please wait a moment."
After Aini made a note, he waved his hand. The books lying on their backs seemed to be basking in the sun. Each of them picked up a bookmark, clamped it into the pages of their own book like a hairpin, and returned to the bookshelf one by one. p>
"Book of Spells", "Magic Theory", "Common Spells and Solutions", "Major Discoveries in Modern Magic", "Selected Spells of the Eighteenth Century", "Research on the Development of Modern Witchcraft", plus the last one "
"Complete Collection of Standard Spells", the little witch felt a little strange, didn't you have to read one book at a time?
Seeing Hermione's confusion, Ani asked heuristically: "Did you notice any similarities between them?"
Hermione smoothed her fluffy hair and said with some uncertainty: "They are all related to magic?"
"To be precise, it's Charms." Aini tapped his fingers, and a three-layer snack tray fell out of thin air.
"Lavender tea?"
After receiving Hermione's approval, the clear tea soup dripped out of the bottom of the bowl little by little, as if it had been brewed into a lavender dream.
"Thank you, Aini. Wow, the snacks are delicious."
"This is a practice passed down from Lady Hufflepuff herself."
"Ms. Hufflepuff?" Hermione swallowed the mini sandwich pie in her mouth, "You mean the founder of Hufflepuff House? Ani, your family heritage is really long."
"Haha, I don't know how to cook." Aini looked at Hermione's puzzled eyes and explained: "They are not brought from home. These snacks come from the cafeteria of Hogwarts, where the house elves are
In terms of cooking skills, he can be regarded as her successor."
"Does Hogwarts also have a cafeteria? And house elves?"
"Of course Hogwarts has a cafeteria. Do you think the food on the table is magic?"
Ani looked at Hermione's cute look and couldn't help but chuckle, thinking to herself, house elf? That will be a big trouble for you in the future.
Of course, I can't say this directly, but I still have to mention a few words to give her a preconceived impression.
"You have already been to Gringotts. You must be deeply impressed by the goblins."
Hermione nodded, she didn't like those greedy guys very much.
"House elves are actually the same species as goblins. They once robbed property and killed wizards, even newborn babies or wrinkled old people."
"This is too terrible. Can't anyone take care of it?" Hermione covered her mouth, unable to imagine the scene at that time.
"Of course the wizards will not sit idly by. The records of the Dark Ages are very messy, but what is known is that the wizards at that time worked independently, and at most they gathered in the form of small strongholds."
"A single goblin is no match for a wizard. They gather together, attack the wizard together, and then disperse after grabbing the property. Goblins with money will also be attacked by other goblins. So after the robbery is completed, they will look for
Let’s put things together in one place first.”
Hermione's face was full of disbelief. I'm afraid that all the goblins have [Hermione Favorability -1] floating on their heads now. If it were played in the game, it would completely crash the screen.
The expression was as if a goblin would jump in from the window soon, point at them and say "Avada bites the big melon".
"But we defeated them in the end, didn't we? I saw in the History of Magic that at the earliest time point in the book, the goblins were already ruled by wizards."
"Yes, so we must be in awe and gratitude to the ancient wizards. It was they who made the wizard community the rulers of the magical world. In peaceful times, we may not be able to imagine the cruelty of war."
"So, the house elves were captured by wizards at that time?" Hermione asked, but her tone was very sure. The smart little witch knew that if the two were not related, why would Ani talk about the goblin war at length?
?
"Hermione, I have always thought that you are the best witch I have ever seen." Ani praised without hesitation, "After defeating the goblins, some wizards are unable to kill their cubs, but if they are left alone, they will
Create new hidden dangers.
They gathered the cubs together, made a contract, and taught them human etiquette and rules. In order to atone for their sins, they served the wizards for free."
Hearing this, the kind little witch frowned. The innocence of a 12-year-old child made her somewhat sympathetic to these goblin children who had never harmed the wizard.
"Although I personally think the child is innocent, I can't think of a better way."
"Hermione, when an avalanche buries a village, no snowflake is innocent." Seeing that the little witch did not notice the other meaning of "some wizards", Ani was about to end the ancient story and bring the conversation back to the topic.
After all, since I just said "some wizards", there are naturally other wizards. They may have hatred against goblins, or for other reasons, and no goblin can get their mercy.
But these are not suitable to be told to her now, as that is likely to be counterproductive and arouse her strong sympathy.
"Back to the topic, Hermione, you can actually give it a try. Reading books with related contents at the same time can confirm and promote each other. But you have to be cautious. Reading too many books together will make your thinking confusing.
."
Aini pointed to the bookshelf, "In the eyes of wizards, 7 is a magic number. I will also use this as a limit when reading books, and will not read more than 7 books at the same time."
Hermione's eyes lit up. This way of reading sounds very good. I'll try it myself when I get back.
Pleasant time always passed quickly. During the leisurely communication, the two finished enjoying afternoon tea. Only then did Hermione realize that it was already 5 o'clock, and the purpose of her visit had not been revealed yet.
"Ani, do you know Nick Flamel?" The little witch looked over expectantly. Aini's erudition has never let him down.
"Of course." Aini didn't want the little witch to waste too much time looking for a name, "Mr. Nicholas Flamel, a very kind old man."
Hermione looked at him with wide eyes, unblinking, her heart always filled with curiosity.
"I remember that he is the school director of Beauxbatons. Those Talisman Horses are so beautiful. Why didn't I have the nerve to ask for a pair last time I went there?" The little witch's expectant expression is so cute, Ai
Ni couldn't help but tease her and began to talk about him, but she didn't say anything important.
"Nico is very famous in the French wizarding world. Every Frenchman who mentions him is full of respect. To be honest, he is the most charming wizard I have ever seen. French wizards are different from us. Most of them are very arrogant...
”
Seeing that the topic was getting further and further away from him, the little witch also realized that this guy was just teasing her.
He wrinkled his little nose and made a self-righteous expression, "Huh, if you don't want to tell me, just tell me. I can find it in the book."
Hearing this, Aini almost couldn't control his expression and laughed out loud. I don't know which silly girl was in the original book. After reading the book for almost two months, I still found nothing. Instead, it was Harry's good deeds that gave them the answer.<
/p>
But now that I think about it, even Ron almost revealed the truth ahead of time.
Before the Christmas vacation, Ron had suggested that Hermione ask her parents, but she refused.
At that time, Hermione thought that her Muggle parents would not know about people in the wizarding world.
But things are often unexpected. Like Merlin, Nicholas Flamel is one of the few people who can be called a household name in the world of ordinary people. Today, there is a street named after the couple in Paris, France.
If Hermione really asks, she will most likely get an answer.
Seeing that the heat was almost done, Ani happily satisfied Hermione.
"Nick is the greatest living alchemist and the only refiner and owner of the Philosopher's Stone. It was he who proved that the Philosopher's Stone can indeed make people immortal - he is over 600 years old this year.
”
"I know." The little witch jumped up from the sofa excitedly, "The Philosopher's Stone is hidden under the trap door. Professor Snape wants to steal it. I don't think there is a potion master who doesn't want to make himself immortal.
Medicine." Hermione thought of the legend of the Sorcerer's Stone and the Elixir of Life that she had heard when she was a child, and came up with a very reasonable story.
"Ani, thank you for your hospitality, I have to go back." Regarding a legendary object like the Sorcerer's Stone, Hermione was no longer in the mood to chat, and ran back after saying goodbye in a hurry.
Ani gently flicked the edge of the tea cup, feeling a little melancholy. Did he feel like he was being prostituted for nothing?
After having my own afternoon tea, I asked a lot of questions, and then ran away after getting the answers. Is this considered ruthless?
Humph, scumbag!(??`w′?)
After being depressed for two seconds, Aini's mood brightened instantly after seeing the cat, and he picked it up and put it in his arms.
I’m happy to have a cat, so of course I have to do something to celebrate.
