Daily Life at Hogwarts

Chapter 326 The Principal Please Drink Tea

"Look, this report..."

While eating breakfast, George, who was flipping through the Daily Prophet, suddenly yelled, startling everyone around him.

"Don't yell so early in the morning!" Lee Jordan glared angrily at George, who shook the slice of bread off his hands in fright.

Albert suppressed a yawn, spread jam on his slice of bread, and took a bite before leaning over to read the Daily Prophet pushed by George.

There is a paper on the Buffy Brain Refreshing Potion above, and the Ministry of Magic is reminding everyone not to believe it or use the Buffy Brain Refreshing Potion indiscriminately, because all the Buffy Brain Refreshing Potions that can be purchased on the market are poisonous.

"I thought something was wrong." Albert covered another yawn, "It turns out, it's just to scare others!"

"Scare people?" Lee Jordan reached for the newspaper, read it carefully, and said, "It should be true, right!"

"It's true, that's true. The actual situation is indeed what the newspaper said, but the newspaper exaggerated the matter." Albert finished eating the slices of bread coated with jam in two or three bites, and muttered, "This is a smart way , is more useful than any law."

"Why?" George didn't understand why Albert said that.

"Laws can be exploited, and if you were told that the Buffy brain-boosting potion bought on the market is poisonous, would you still spend a lot of Galleons to buy a bottle of poisonous potion and try it out?" Albert said. curled his lips. "Speaking of which, that Slytherin student was so unlucky that he was pulled out by the Daily Prophet to flog his corpse."

"That's right, no one would dare to buy those unknown Buffy brain-boosting potions now." Fred closed the newspaper, looked at Albert and said, "However, in this way, your plan may It's going to be ruined!"

"Who said that, haven't you heard of the brand?" Albert looked at several roommates and said mysteriously.

"I don't understand!" The three of them shook their heads in unison.

"Hmm... just like Floo powder, besides Floo Pom, would you go to other places to buy Floo powder?" Albert thought for a while, and gave a simple case.

It is said that there are fake Floo powders on the market that can blow wizards out of fireplaces.

"It seems... no!"

The three of them looked at each other and looked at Albert again.

"However, this and... oh, that's it, I guess I know what you mean, it's not easy."

"I'm just giving you an example."

Albert added another fried egg to his plate and looked up at the top of his head.

The mail has arrived!

Dozens of owls flew into the hall and flew over the heads of the students, dropping letters or packages to their recipients.

Luckily, owls come and go quickly, otherwise, when we were having dinner in the morning, suddenly shit fell from the sky, so how could we bear it.

Albert received two letters, plus a heavy-looking package.

"There's no sender on it," said George, frowning.

"I know."

Albert opened the package, took out the bag inside, mouthed the three roommates next to him to shut up, and then quickly stuffed the bag, which could faintly hear the crisp sound of metal clashing, into his pocket inside.

He made a lot of Galleons selling Buffy Brain Refreshing Potion. Although he didn't count the gold coins right away, he wasn't worried about other people's repudiation.

"A lot of money!" Fred couldn't help muttering, "How much?"

Albert raised three fingers and shook them.

"That's great. But, do they dare to use it? I heard that the Ministry of Magic is particularly strict in checking for cheating this year."

"Don't be stupid, if it was so easy to check, the Ministry of Magic would have done that long ago." Albert curled his lips in disdain.

The fact that the Ministry of Magic didn't check whether the students were taking Buffy's brain-boosting potion was more of a hassle and waste.

Bafei Brain Refreshing Potion is the same as Felicia Potion. The manufacturing process is very complicated, the cost of materials is extremely high, and the success rate is extremely low. The failed product will be poisoned if drunk. It is completely unrealistic for ordinary students to buy this potion for cheating. Even if you buy it, you have to consider whether you are taking a risk.

Intelligence enhancers and the use of dragon claw powder are two of the most common methods of cheating in exams, and the Ministry of Magic has long been prepared to prevent them.

As for Legilimency, many students have never even heard of it. It is really not easy to cheat by relying on Legilimency.Most wizards may not even be able to contact them after graduation.

"Mr. Anderson." A voice came from behind Albert.

Albert put down the knife and fork, turned his head to look, and found that Professor McGonagall was standing behind him at some point.

"Good morning, Professor McGonagall." Albert immediately greeted the other party.

"Principal Dumbledore has something to ask you." Professor McGonagall signaled Albert to follow her to the principal's office.

"That...professor, I have class later."

"Mr. Weasley, remember to ask for leave for Mr. Anderson." Professor McGonagall said without thinking.

"See you later!" Albert finished the remaining food in two or three bites, threw the schoolbag to George, waved to everyone, and followed in the footsteps of Professor McGonagall.

Of course Albert knew why the principal was looking for him.

The letter sent out yesterday, Dumbledore estimated that it was a bit of a letter, and he was going to check it out.

Albert had already woven a true and false story in his brain, and he was ready for this day.

The two turned a corner silently, and stopped in front of a griffin.

"Chocolate Frog!!"

After she said the password, the griffin came to life, revealing the spiral staircase behind the wall. As soon as Albert and Professor McGonagall stepped up, they followed the escalator to the principal's office.

Professor McGonagall knocked on the door and took Albert in. There was no one inside, and Dumbledore didn't know where he went.

Professor McGonagall told Albert to wait, then turned and left, leaving him alone in the principal's office.

Dumbledore didn't keep Albert waiting too long, he walked in from outside the office, as if he had something to go out just now.

"Mr. Anderson." Dumbledore looked at Albert with a smile and said, "I have read your letter..."

"If you're looking for the crown on the photo, I'll take you there." Albert looked at Dumbledore and said softly.

"Then let's go!" Dumbledore nodded, very satisfied with the efficiency.

"Principal, what do you think that is?" Albert asked softly.

"It's hard to say, you need to see the real thing to know." Dumbledore followed Albert to the opposite side of the tapestry where the troll beat Barnaba with a stick.

"It's here," said Albert. "I call it the Room of Requirement."

"Responsiveness?"

"Well, it can become the room you need. I think this name is very appropriate." Albert asked curiously, "Doesn't Principal Dumbledore know about this place?"

"Although I'm the headmaster of Hogwarts, I don't necessarily know all the secrets in the school." Dumbledore winked at Albert, "However, I think I went in by accident once. At that time There was a room with many exquisite pots in it. When I went out, the room suddenly disappeared."

"Hold on"

Albert walked back and forth three times, waited for the door of the Room of Requirement to open, and walked in first.

"How did Mr. Anderson find out here?" Dumbledore asked curiously, looking around at the rubbish.

"I didn't discover this place first." Albert briefly talked about Fred and George's night tour, and then said that he had speculated and found out the correct way to open the Room of Requirement.
