"Scott? What good news has happened?"
Eddie asked a question, and Milton and Roger stared at him curiously.
"cough."
Scott coughed lightly, straightened his tie, and raised his head with a slightly smug look.
"From now on, please call me the fortune teller."
"Did you suddenly awaken your third eye?" Roger was extremely surprised.
“No,” Milton said. “Scott didn’t take a divination class; he just had an arithmetic divination class.”
"Oh, right."
Scott suddenly remembered that Milton had taken a divination course.
"How are you doing in your divination class?" he asked Milton.
“My senses have become a bit dull,” Milton said calmly. “I never imagined that losing my musical talent would trigger such a chain reaction.”
He shook his head and slowly smiled, "But this is the price I have to pay."
Scott suddenly lost his smugness.
Milton, on the contrary, smiled and said, "It seems you've made amazing progress in your arithmetic divination class. Congratulations, Scott."
“Thank you, but I’ve only learned the basics.” Scott held out his hand, making a “little bit” gesture with his thumb and forefinger.
"is it?"
Eddie's eyes darted around, and he said to Scott in a pretentious manner, "Please help me with this calculation, Master Trolop."
Scott ignored him and began to focus on his meal.
"Please, Master Trollope!"
Eddie was still putting on a great show.
"What do you want to calculate?"
Scott glanced at him sideways.
"Quick, help me calculate," Eddie said, feigning shyness. "When will my love arrive?"
Scott retorted irritably, "Don't you just like money?"
“Who said that?” Eddie denied it. “I clearly yearn for beautiful love!”
"Sorry, I can't calculate it."
Scott swallowed the food in his mouth and shook his head in refusal.
"Arithmetic divination cannot predict things that are too far in the future."
"puff."
"Hahahahaha..."
Milton and Roger couldn't help but burst into laughter, and the classmates sitting nearby also laughed non-stop.
"What do you mean!" Eddie was furious. "I've decided, I'm going to find a girlfriend within a week and slap you in the face!"
“Great, I’m looking forward to it.” Scott gave him a standard fake smile.
“Honestly, I’m really looking forward to it too!” Roger patted Eddie on the shoulder.
Milton gave Eddie an encouraging look. "Go for it, Eddie!"
"Go for it, Eddie!"
The surrounding classmates said in unison.
Lunch ended amidst everyone's laughter and Eddie's sullenness.
After the afternoon classes ended, Scott and his roommates returned to their dorm room, put down their books, and then went their separate ways.
Roger goes to Quidditch training, Milton goes to the classical music club to practice piano, and Eddie embarks on a "journey" as an underground merchant with his backpack.
Scott then went to the college library and found Ms. Grey.
"Good afternoon, Ms. Grey."
He still greeted the ghostly woman politely.
Ms. Gray turned around and smiled slightly.
"Scott."
Since reconciling with Ravenclaw, the expressions on her face have become increasingly vivid.
"You came to see me because you have some ideas about finding the crown?" she asked curiously.
“I want to try divination using arithmetic!” Scott said directly to her.
"Arithmetic divination? Perhaps that's a good idea!"
Ms. Gray raised her eyebrows in surprise.
"But have you really learned it? I mean, real arithmetic divination."
Scott nodded. "I consulted Professor Victor. Perhaps I can give it a try."
He didn't make any absolute statements.
But he had already decided that regardless of whether his arithmetic and divination skills could actually determine the location of the crown, he would use this excuse to find it.
Scott knew that the more he experienced, the more suspicious things would become about him, and it was better to be as open and aboveboard as possible.
"Then let's give it a try!"
Ms. Gray was somewhat eager to try.
“I was once obsessed with arithmetic and divination, which was my mother’s forte, but obviously I lacked some talent in that area.”
She floated to a table and chairs in the corner of the library and waited.
"I think I have some talent in this area."
Scott smiled and went over to sit down.
He unfolded the parchment he had rolled up and laid it on the table, then took out a fountain pen.
"Now, let's write down the goal of the divination."
He wrote "[The Coronet of Ravenclaw]" at the top of the parchment with a pen.
"Good afternoon, what are you doing?"
At this moment, several students who were reading in the library gathered around.
Luna was among them, and she immediately spotted the words Scott had written down.
"Ravenclaw's tiara?"
She repeated the sentence curiously, then looked at Scott and Ms. Gray.
"Do you want to get the crown back?" she asked. "Speaking of which, my father made a replica at home."
Luna's words attracted the attention of others, and soon Scott was surrounded by curious Ravenclaw students.
Perhaps because Mrs. Grey was also there, no one spoke loudly.
But Scott overheard their whispers.
The Ravenclaws didn't believe Scott could find the legendary crown that had been missing for a thousand years.
Some even believe that the tiara is just a legend, like Slytherin's locket and Hufflepuff's golden cup.
Throughout the entire story, all people ever saw was Gryffindor's sword.
Nevertheless, this did not prevent the Ravenclaws from viewing Scott's behavior as an interesting experiment.
They eagerly awaited his actions and their outcome.
“What method are you going to use to find the crown, Scott?” Fifth-year prefect Ethan Cooper asked Scott.
He and Scott had fought each other in the dueling club last semester, so they were fairly familiar with each other.
“We use arithmetic for divination,” Scott said frankly.
"Arithmetic divination?"
Upon hearing Scott's words, the Ravenclaws watching seemed to become even more interested and began to discuss among themselves.
They didn't think it would be useful, but they also thought it would be an interesting experiment!
"Quiet!" Ms. Grey suddenly spoke up. "Don't disturb us!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the library fell silent.
The Ravenclaws looked at Ms. Grey in surprise.
But Ms. Gray ignored them and said to Scott, “Continue.”
Scott nodded. “Now list the known conditions.”
He then wrote down three names: [Royna Ravenclaw], [Helena Ravenclaw], and [Tom Riddle].
He then followed Ms. Gray's advice and wrote down "Albania," "Forest," and "Hollow Tree."
At this point, Ms. Gray whispered several more words, all of which were words describing crowns.
Scott nodded and wrote the words down on the paper one by one.
Including the inscription on the crown—[Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind].
Scott thought for a moment and then wrote down [Voldemort], [Theft], and [Hidden].
When he wrote the word "Voldemort," he unsurprisingly heard a cacophony of sounds coming from the surrounding area.
Almost everyone gasped in shock.
Chapter 166 actually yielded the results.
Inside the Ravenclaw library, all the students who had gathered to watch Scott's arithmetic readings were terrified by the word "Voldemort" that he had written on parchment.
