The sickly iron fist beauty in Harry Potter

"If we figure this out, I think we'll be able to publish a paper and maybe even win a medal or something..."

Hermione's face was filled with amazement. Dolly simply shoved the cat into Hermione's arms and said, "Then I'll leave this problem to you to study."

"Wait, aren't you curious?"

Hermione looked surprised, and Dolly said as a matter of course, "Of course I'm curious. Maybe this group of cattails encountered something during their birth and growth."

"Or maybe they have some kind of magical animal bloodline. After all, the ones I bought were from the same litter."

"Although I'm very curious, the time and energy it would take to figure it all out might not be something we can afford."

"It's better to stop in moderation."

Although she said this, Dolly still looked around the room to confirm that there was nothing unusual before saying, "By the way, Crookshanks, you have the most contact with them. Do you have any ideas?"

Crookshanks looked up at Dolly, then seemed to think for a moment, then raised his cat paw and pointed at the jerky locked in the distance.

Hermione spoke directly, saying, "Don't even think about it, Crookshanks, you've gained weight again recently!"

"You're not going to be satisfied until you've eaten yourself into a pig? You're not an orange cat!"

Crookshanks meowed twice and began rolling on the table with his belly exposed, trying to use the cat trick, but Hermione was obviously only interested in Puff.

So Crookshanks stopped flirting and went back to eating.

Does it know what happened yesterday?

Of course I know.

But can it understand what happened yesterday?

Obviously not completely.

It's just a cat. Even its owner can't understand things clearly, so how can it possibly and there is no need for it to understand everything clearly.

It is enough for it to know that this kind of thing is good for it.

If it happens a few more times, maybe it can evolve a special ability.

For example, sticking out the tongue like Pu Rongrong... forget it, because when one's own owner sticks out his tongue, he almost gets bitten by another owner.

The look in his eyes was exactly the same as when he was hunting the red-haired wizard's pet mouse.

How about giving its tail the ability to swing like a whip, so it can wake Dolly up more powerfully!

Dolly naturally had no idea what Crookshanks was thinking. Without getting an answer from Crookshanks, she shrugged her shoulders and felt that the matter was over.

After all, even if the Pu Rongrongs mutated, they only gained a little ability to catch mosquitoes. For Dolly, this was just a little more topic to talk about when chatting with others.

As for giving 100% of her passion and conducting in-depth research on the underlying principles, this is really not suitable for Dolly. She has not had such ambition in her two lives.

Of course, if the cattails become more bizarre in the future, Dolly wouldn't mind handing the matter over to more professional people.

For example, Newt Scamander is still alive.

The protagonist of the "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" film series, the man who captured Grindelwald, the author of the "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" textbook series, and a Hufflepuff who loves magical beasts from the bottom of his soul.

Obviously there is no one more suitable than him, but Pu Rongrong is not qualified enough for him to study now.

After Hermione played the game of throwing meat pieces for Pu Rongrong to catch for a while, she finally decided to put Pu Rongrong down.

Although new ways of playing have been developed for Pu Rongrong, he is still far behind smart guys like Crookshanks.

However, Hermione still looked forward to the day when these little guys could grow further, until they could allow her and Dolly to receive the Order of Merlin.

This way, it won’t be in vain for the two owners to raise them for so long!

The brief accident added some fun to life, but soon the daily study life returned.

After gaining 2 points of magic power, Dolly's performance in class improved a lot, and even some of her commonly used spells began to break through to level 2.

For example, the healing spell.

Although the first spell to break through was a healing spell, which sounds a bit like a joke from hell, it is still a happy thing.

It now seems that her talent in magic is indeed quite good, but it is not displayed due to the limitation of her magic level.

It turned out that it was right for her not to strengthen her skills crazily before, otherwise these attribute points would definitely be wasted now.

However, even though Dolly's performance in class has improved a lot, it is still difficult for her to take away the professor's grades next to Hermione.

Hermione didn't know what was going on, and she acted even more violently than in the first half of the school year.

If Hermione in the first half of the year was just a person with a positive attitude and endless desire to learn.

Now Hermione seems to have really come to her senses, and her performance in various subjects has improved to a higher level.

As a result, Ravenclaw's house score has opened up a gap of more than 50 points with the second-place Slytherin.

This was the result after the professors discovered that Hermione was too violent and started to control the grades.

Unless no one else knew the answer to a question, they would try their best not to let Hermione answer the question, and at most give Hermione one chance per class.

Even Snape began to ignore Dolly, who was dissatisfied with Hermione, and forcibly found fault with Hermione and deducted points.

However, facing the smart Ravenclaws, he didn't dare to be too obvious and tried to make every point deduction have a reasonable reason.

Unlike the way he deducted points from Gryffindor, the minimum deduction was five points per class, and there was no upper limit if he felt like it.

Such things naturally soon reached the ears of other professors, and as a result, Slytherin also suffered harsh treatment from other professors.

Although other professors would not deliberately find fault with Slytherin and deduct points, it was the professors' responsibility to strictly enforce the rules and regulations, and even Professor McGonagall would not say much about it.

Under this dynamic balance, Hermione's scoring ability, which was one level ahead, became increasingly difficult to suppress.

The professors couldn't really stop Hermione from answering any questions, as that would become bullying of Hermione, which was obviously unacceptable to the professors.

This is also the reason why Ravenclaw's scores are gradually widening the gap with other colleges.

The other three houses were almost doomed to fail in surpassing Ravenclaw and winning the house cup, as they could only compete based on classroom scores.

They all turned their attention to the Quidditch Cup. After all, winning a Quidditch match would also add a lot of points and even have a chance to reverse the situation.

This has led to a sharp increase in the importance of the Quidditch Cup, making Quidditch matches both more exciting and more dangerous.

However, young people are at an age of passion, and danger may be an attractive factor to them, especially when they see others facing danger.

Even Dolly is no exception. It is a pleasure for her to see Qiu Zhang galloping on the field.

However, this relaxed atmosphere did not last long. Dolly was distressed watching the Ravenclaw team play against the Slytherin team.

Compared to Hufflepuff, Slytherin has no bottom line.

At the beginning, the Slytherin team sent three people to guard the goal tightly, and the remaining four people launched a siege on Qiu Zhang.

He used his hands, feet, brooms and even baseball bats, as if he wanted to knock Qiu Zhang off the broom.

Madam Hooch had no way to stop this, at least she couldn't call them a foul until they succeeded.

But if they really succeeded, considering their dirty tricks and Qiu Zhang's physical condition, Qiu Zhang would probably be out of today's game.

Qiu Zhang, realizing this, was inevitably frightened, and chose to circle around with them in the sky, and had to completely give up looking for the Golden Snitch.

The rest of the Ravenclaw team continued with their previous strategy, trying to create a big enough gap by scoring goals to win the game.

The remaining three members of the Slytherin team were forced to use their bodies to catch the ball, risking broken bones, trying desperately to stop Ravenclaw's attack, but on average they still conceded at least three goals per minute.

In terms of offensive efficiency, Ravenclaw, with its high IQ bonus, is no worse than any other college.

Unfortunately, luck was not on Ravenclaw's side this time. In less than five minutes, the Slytherin team's Seeker found the Golden Snitch and caught it.

Slytherin House immediately scored 150 points and won the game with a narrow advantage of 10 points.

After the game, the Slytherin team said that Qiu Zhang was nothing special, and if they used the same method again next time, it would be enough to completely ban Qiu Zhang.

But anyone with a discerning eye could see that this method was actually a gamble on luck, because finding the Golden Snitch was not an easy task, and normally five minutes was far from enough.

On the other hand, the Ravenclaw team was outnumbered by the Slytherin team, and if they couldn't score 150 points within five minutes, it would be a shame to their professionalism.

In short, no matter how you look at it, this incident cannot be considered Qiu Zhang's responsibility, and no one, from the players to the spectators, has complained about Qiu Zhang's performance.

However, the loss in the match dealt a heavy blow to Qiu Zhang's self-confidence. After all, this was only Qiu Zhang's second match, and she won the previous match so elegantly and beautifully.

In this regard, Dolly could only comfort Qiu Zhang, saying that no one could stop luck, especially in a sport like Quidditch where the Golden Snitch could easily kill the game.

At the same time, Dolly also gave Qiu Zhang an idea. When Qiu Zhang heard this idea, his frown relaxed and he looked at Dolly with surprise.

Then he said seriously: "Next time I encounter this situation, I will do as you say and help you win again."

Hermione, who was watching the whole thing, asked curiously what the idea was.

Dolly, however, chose to keep it a secret, keeping it until Qiu Zhang's next appearance to face his opponent.

Hermione was a little dissatisfied, but since it was related to the victory of the school, she obediently accepted the fact that Dolly and Qiu Zhang had kept a little secret. Then she said: "So our opponent next month..."

"It's Gryffindor."

Qiu Zhang answered without hesitation, with an expectant smile on his face, and Duoli immediately thought of her younger brother.

Perhaps, this time, it will be Harry who can't laugh.

It’s still early for next month’s competition and regular school life has returned.

On an ordinary Wednesday, what Dolly had been waiting for finally arrived.

That is, a complete set of power supply equipment that can power a shelter was finally delivered to Hogwarts.

This includes but is not limited to generators, battery packs, inverters, and a host of wires, sockets, and other small gadgets.

These things were difficult to deliver to Hogwarts by owls, so Dolly finally asked the husband of Hans, the driver of the Qiu Zhang family, a wizard named Charles, to deliver them to Hogsmeade from the Muggle world by Knight Bus.

Finally, Diandian used magic to carry it back bit by bit, which made the house elf almost exhausted.

These things were temporarily piled up in Hagrid's hut because Dolly did not plan to move them directly into the dormitory. Before that, Dolly still had to test whether these things could be used.

It wasn't that she doubted the quality of British-made products, but she vaguely remembered that in her previous life, there was a saying that the magical magnetic field could prevent any electrical appliance from operating normally in Hogwarts.

At this point, Dolly felt it was time to go to the Room of Requirement, as it was the only place where she could safely conduct the test.

If Dolly hadn't been worried about being discovered by Dumbledore, she would have wanted to experience the magic of the Room of Requirement a long time ago.

Because of the attack by Quirrell, Dolly asked Dumbledore to find a place for him to brew potions.

Finally, Dumbledore told Dolly the location of the Room of Requirement in the form of a Christmas gift.

However, Dumbledore did not tell Dolly the name of the Room of Requirement.

Instead, tell Dolly to be on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle, across from the tapestry where the troll clubbed Barnabas.

As long as Dolly concentrated on thinking of a Potions classroom and walked through that wall three times, a very smooth door would appear on the wall, leading to the place he had prepared for Dolly.

Dumbledore apparently hesitated for some time over whether to tell Dolly about the Room of Requirement.

After all, the Room of Requirement is one of the most mysterious places in Hogwarts. Countless things have happened here, and countless secrets are buried there.

In the end, Dumbledore chose a compromise and only told Dolly how to use a certain room in the Room of Requirement, but did not tell Dolly all the secrets of the Room of Requirement.

As for why he did this, whether it was another temptation, Dolly was too lazy to think about it.

Once she enters the Room of Requirement, she can find an opportunity to brew the Bone Spirit, thereby further speeding up her attribute point acquisition.

This is what we should be most concerned about.

114 Chapter 1: The Room of Requests

"You really don't need my help?"

Hermione looked at Dolly in surprise. She didn't expect Dolly to propose that she would handle the testing and installation process of these electronic devices by herself.

Duoli said seriously, "Aren't you going to start your first round of final review? I can't delay your study time."

That's right, although it's still February and there are still more than four months until the end of the semester, Hermione is already preparing for the final review.

Don't ask, the only thing you need to know is that Hermione has to review it at least three times.

For a top student like Hermione, not getting full marks is a major failure in life.

For Dolly, just passing was enough—and it was impossible for Dolly to just pass.

He has logical ability and memory that little wizards don't have, plus a good talent for spells, and likes to read the history of magic and other books as entertainment novels.

With some experience in solving problems from her previous life, it would be easy for Dolly to get an average or higher grade.

But if Dolly were to spend all her time trying to get full marks like Hermione did, she might commit suicide on the spot.

Hermione hesitated.
