Two Worlds: I studied abroad at Hogwarts

Chapter 60 Finding a Research Direction
The sun had just set and Moon had already finished his dinner in the auditorium.

Today is Monday, and there is a gathering of the Christmas Cactus Club in the evening. This is an event that Moon must attend every week.

Although he had only been in the club for three weeks, Moon had already learned a lot, especially in terms of magical plants, and he had gained a lot of knowledge.

Watching Moon and Cedric leave the table together again, Harry, who had finally had a day's rest, looked at Ron.

"Does Moon go to the rally every Monday?"

"That's right. Although my father said that Professor Sprout's Herbology Club is very influential in the wizarding world, I don't envy Moon at all."

At this point, Ron glanced at Hermione who was sitting opposite him.

The little witch would always stare at Moon whenever she went to attend club activities.

"Why, weren't you actually very happy that Moon could join the club?"

Harry looked at Ron in confusion, as he had changed his tune after only two weeks.

"Actually, I was happy at first, but after my mother's letter, I never mentioned it again."

It turned out that Ron had already communicated with his family about Moon joining the Herbal Club.

At first he just wanted to show off that he had a very powerful friend, but the content of Mrs. Weasley's reply made him feel like he had shot himself in the foot.
-
My dear son, I think you should learn from your good friend——
"My mother actually asked me to learn from Moon. That's really killing me."

Moon gets up before dawn every day to study magic, make wands, practice spells, and finish his homework ahead of time.
There's even been a recent addition to the herbal club thing.

Ron couldn't even carry out any one of these things, let alone do them all.

It was also through this experience of writing a letter home that Ron learned a lesson.

Anyway, he would never tell his family that he had outstanding classmates again.

"I think you're right." Harry took a sip of hot porridge and nodded in agreement.

Hermione was actually listening to what Ron said, and she strongly disagreed with the conversation between the two boys opposite her.

Hermione has been looking up a lot of information in the library recently.

She knew that the Christmas Cactus Club was very famous not only in the British wizarding world, but also in the entire European wizarding world.

Plant magic, herbal research, magic hospital, herbal trading market.
Members of the Christmas Cactus Club can be found in these different magical realms.

Even the legendary Newt Scamander is an honorary member.

Hermione couldn't help but feel a little jealous at the thought.

Her father is a famous dentist in London, so she has some understanding of the power of this high-end medical club.

However, she didn't have any good solution for the time being, so she could only focus her attention on the textbook in front of her.

Moon had no idea what his friends thought, but he was very busy at the club.

Because he had not found the next research direction, Moon set his sights on all the herbal plants in the club in the past two weeks.

He now has a basic understanding of the thirty-two plant species in the club's classroom.

Even after seeking advice from Professor Sprout, Moon has begun wearing dragon leather gloves to loosen the soil, fertilize, and water some magical plants.
"You've been watching for so long, haven't you figured out what to do next?"

Cedric was collecting spores of the sleepy face fungus at this time. These little things were very fragile, so he spoke very softly.

"I just had a preliminary idea today, but I have to consult the professor before I can make a decision."

What Moon was thinking about now was the magic about the big pumpkin that he saw at Hagrid. In his opinion, this magic was more useful than some herbs.

"Well, I really hope to see your work soon."

In the club's classroom, each plant has its own unique fruit next to it.

Only Moon's willow branches swayed alone in the corner.

"Don't worry, I don't think it will take too long." Moon loosened the soil of the moon grass on the middle table. This small flower blooms every night, and the petals look like white moonlight passing through them, which is very beautiful.

Now Moon is in charge of taking care of this little grass. He only needs to loosen the soil and water it on time.

While Moon was admiring the moongrass, Sprout was already walking into the classroom surrounded by several students.

Listening to several seniors asking questions that Moon had no idea about, he could only wait in the distance.

Only when you delve deeper into a certain field of magic can you discover more problems.

That’s the case with the club’s senior class now.

They have been researching their respective herbal plants for several years, but still have different problems.

Professor Sprout would go through these issues every Monday.

If she encounters a difficult problem, she will also experiment with her students to solve it.

Everyone in the club focuses on studying their own problems, and the professor will do his best to guide them.

This is one of the reasons why Moon likes the club.

After the senior students dispersed around the podium, Moon walked straight over.

"Why, Mr. Scarlett, have you found anything you want to research?"

Sprout actually admired Moon very much. She had never seen anyone who knew so much about plants at such a young age.

Moon even has some knowledge about seasons and weather, which require a long time to accumulate experience and master.

It was for this reason that Sprout allowed Moon to observe more plants in the club so that he could find what he really liked.

But Moon always brings her surprises. After she agreed to let Moon observe the plants, the first-grade wizard actually learned to take care of every kind of plant slowly.

Even now that she's gone, Moon is able to care for the existing plants on his own.

After discovering Moon's talent, Sprout became more certain that he had found a wizard with great talent in herbs and plants.

"Yes, Professor, but I still need your guidance."

At Sprout's signal, Moon told what he saw and heard in Hagrid's hut.

"Hagrid's big pumpkin, huh? You can see it every Halloween. He wasn't lying to you. It really only requires a little magic: the Swelling Charm."

"The expansion spell! Is it that simple?"

Moon's mouth curled up slightly. If he mastered the expansion spell, he would have a way to solve Xilin's food shortage crisis.

"Of course it's simple, but Hagrid has his own difficulties that he can't tell you. You have to understand him."

"Don't worry, Professor. Hagrid is my friend. Also, I want to ask, can I eat the pumpkin after it's been cursed?"

"Eat a cursed pumpkin?"

Sprout was a little confused, she had never thought about it in this way.

"Yes, I saw that Hagrid's pumpkin was more than ten times bigger than the original one. Does that mean it can feed more people?"

"I haven't tried this, perhaps you could ask Professor Flitwick, but I imagine you're looking for magic that increases plant yields."

"Uh, that's right."

Moon thought about it and it made sense. Making the pumpkin bigger was to feed more people, and increasing production was also to feed people.

So as long as it is related to magic, he is willing to study it.
