late at night.

Higashino Yuu once again began to wander around the dark castle at night.

This has now become one of his few hobbies. Hogwarts was established for a thousand years and contains great secrets, including but not limited to Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets. In addition, according to legend, the remaining "six, seven, and three" headmasters also left their legacies in Gryffindor.

But no one has ever discovered these places of inheritance, and even the principals of all generations don’t know where they are.

Although Higashino Yuu is also curious about these inheritances, he does not force it. He cares more about discovering secrets and the joy of the moment when the secrets are revealed.

For example, some time ago he found a table, a notebook and a quill pen in an inconspicuous classroom.

The notebook was huge and extremely thick, with names and dates densely written on it. Later, after searching in the library, he found out that this notebook was the basis for Hogwarts to recruit students.

Throughout England, whenever a little wizard is born, the feather pen will automatically capture the little wizard's magical fluctuations and write his or her name in the notebook.

In short, it's very magical.

Higashino Yuuya once tried to analyze this notebook and feather pen. For example, after analyzing them, he could create an atlas or feather pen that could obtain the information of other creatures by just aiming it at them and scanning it.

But it did not work and now his knowledge reserves are still seriously insufficient.

However, he created an illustrated guide that can analyze whether plants have the ability to be harmful to the human body.

So this time he continued to analyze it to see if he could go further.

"If the thing you invented became known to the outside world, I think the doctors would definitely not mind awarding you an Order of Merlin, Mr. Higashino Yuu."

An old voice sounded behind him.

Higashino Yu looked behind him and saw an old man with a white beard, wearing half-moon glasses and fancy pajamas, standing behind him and smiling.

"Good evening, Professor Dumbledore." Higashino You greeted with a smile. This was more than once he had seen Dumbledore during night walks, so he knew that Dumbledore always turned a blind eye to the night walks.

"I don't think this thing deserves your praise. In fact, it's just a semi-finished product."

Higashino Yuu shook his head while holding a writing board that looked like the one he played with as a child.

This mainly uses a feather pen to analyze whether the roots, stems and leaves of plants are poisonous. If they are poisonous, they will write "yes" on the writing board, and if not, they will write "no" on the writing board.

"Any invention starts with a small gadget. Nothing is accomplished overnight. I remember there was a man named Edison in the Muggle world who invented the phonograph based on the vibration of sound."

"You even know Edison?" Higashino Yu looked at him with some surprise.

"Of course, you don't think I'm an old, old-fashioned man who is ignorant of the world." Dumbledore said, and even laughed at himself.

"In the past, wizards did have more magical means than Muggles, but in recent years, Muggle technology has been no weaker than magic to some extent. At the very least, it is difficult for wizards to blow up a city by themselves."

When Dumbledore said this, he couldn't help but think of his old friend Gellert Grindelwald. It was because he discovered the great potential of Muggles that he wanted to overthrow the International Statute of Secrecy and establish a world ruled by wizards.

"Okay, saying this here isn't a good offer. I'm just planning on heading to the kitchen to ask the elves for some dessert. Do you want to join us?"

"Kitchen? Come to think of it, I've never been there." Higashino Yu's eyes lit up and he couldn't help but say.

"Then come together, I believe you will like it there." Dumbledore smiled gently.

"Really? I feel the same way." Higashino Yuu also laughed: "I heard that all the kitchens in Hogwarts are maintained by house-elves. Can I borrow some tools from them when the time comes?"

"Of course, they welcome every student at Hogwarts."

"By the way, I found that when I greeted the armor in the castle, they would respond to me, and sometimes even give me directions when I was lost. Are they considered alchemical creatures?"

As the two walked, Higashino Yuu asked some questions.

"No, not really. Magic is a very magical thing. Although it cannot give life to an object, it can give them wisdom. Therefore, in the magic world, alchemy and biology have never been one and the same."

"What about the portraits? I saw some of them can even go visit but some of them just seem to move around inside."

"That's true. If you go to my office, you'll find that the portraits of past principals are no different from humans. They can not only speak, but also make decisions and even quarrel."

Dumbledore said with a smile.

"Hmm... does that mean the strength of a portrait is linked to the strength of the caster?" Higashino Yu touched his chin and suddenly frowned.

"Huh...it seems that the Sorting Hat made the right choice to put you in Ravenclaw. Your 0.2 intelligence is beyond my imagination."

Dumbledore looked at Higashino Yu with surprise.

"So if this magic can be used on a portrait, can it also be used on other things?" Higashino Yuu said as he opened his traceless stretch pocket, then lightly tapped it and summoned a large ball of cotton cloth and cotton. The two items combined in mid-air and turned into a giant panda in the blink of an eye. He tapped on the giant panda according to the method he remembered to give the portrait magic.

The next second, the entire giant panda suddenly swelled up and then exploded into cotton and broken pieces on the ground with a bang.

"It seems that I failed again this time."

"You have excellent control over magic, Mr. Higashino Yuu. I think your current level of control over magic is not even worse than that of the young wizards who have graduated."

175. Higashino Yuu's future plans

Looking at the fragments that were still flying around, Dumbledore showed surprise in his eyes, and then he clapped with a smile.

"But there are still many things I can't do, professor."

Voldemort's magic is very profound, but the path he takes is not the same as Higashino Yu's. Moreover, Higashino Yu will definitely step on Voldemort's shoulders and go further and deeper than him.

"Have you ever thought that the reason you can't do it is because of the material of this item?"

Dumbledore caught a piece of flying black cloth and tore it into two pieces with a light tear in his hand. "Well, I remember Hagrid has a nice cushion. If you can exchange it with him for a softer cushion, I think he will be very willing."

"Thank you Professor!"

Higashino Yu was stunned at first, then his eyes lit up.

It can be said that there are basically no poor people in the entire Hogwarts, and Hagrid, who guards the Forbidden Forest, is even more wealthy. However, he himself seems to have never paid attention to these things and is basically content with meeting his daily needs.

It can be said that living in Hogwarts is like living in a magical world where people pay more attention to spiritual life because they have enough food and clothing.

The most famous thing in every novel of Hagrid's is his cushion, besides his rock cake. The entire cushion is woven from unicorn hair.

The value of a unicorn hair in the outside world is 10 Galleons. Needless to say, the purchasing power of gold Galleons in the magic world is huge. So if a cushion is made entirely of unicorn hair, you can imagine how terrifying its value is.

It can be said to be one of the most expensive luxury items in the wizarding world!

"Speaking of which, Higashino, do you have any dreams?" The two of them walked on the way to the kitchen, and Dumbledore's calm gaze fell on Higashino Yu through the half-moon lenses.

"Dream! I want to change the world so that Muggle-born wizards will no longer be discriminated against!"

Higashino Yuu said without even thinking. Even in front of Dumbledore, he had no intention of hiding anything. If he had to say anything, it was because he was strong enough that he was not afraid of anyone's challenge.

Let’s not talk about whether ordinary magic can break the God Slayer’s defense. Even if it can, he can still transform into Ultraman.

"Wow, this is such a grand dream!" Dumbledore looked a little surprised.

"Is it because they called you that name that day?"

"This is just one aspect, professor. In fact, it doesn't make any sense for a young wizard from a Muggle family to call him a mudblood, because he doesn't understand what it means. The reason why I have this dream is because of discrimination. I can feel that although everyone in Hogwarts is very calm and there is not much discrimination, in the wizarding world, discrimination against Muggle wizards by pure-blood wizards is everywhere."

"But it's difficult if you want to change this situation." Dumbledore looked at him seriously.

"Yes, I know, but we can't not do it just because it's difficult. It's true that prejudice in people's hearts is like a mountain, but even if the mountain in front of me is the Himalayas, I will move it away!" Higashino You looked into the deep night outside the window, where countless stars were twinkling in the night sky.

He thought a lot about this idea. Indeed, it is difficult to change this idea according to the current social situation because wizards from Muggle families in society are already accustomed to the eyes of others. To put it simply, they have already bowed to the society. In this case, it is difficult to choose between tomorrow's dignity and today's bread.

But what if it was after Voldemort took the stage?

Higashino Yu clearly remembers how severe the persecution of Muggle wizards was after Voldemort came to power. It can be said that it was the biggest crisis in the history of Muggle wizards.

But crisis is also an opportunity! In the original novel, after destroying Voldemort, everyone basically went back to their own homes and mothers, and those who should work went to work, and those who should go to school went to school. Basically, there was no change at all.

But if it was Higashino Yu who led this war, this situation would never happen. Both sides fought, and the winner should cheer, but he should not forget to distribute the benefits.

If you want to change the discrimination against Muggle wizards in society, the time when Voldemort appeared was the best time.

He defeated Voldemort, took charge of the Ministry of Magic and became the Minister of Magic, then won over a group of pure-blood wizards who were kind to Muggle wizards, suppressed a group of pure-blood wizards who were malicious, and implemented a series of preferential policies, such as how much tax could be exempted if there were Muggle wizards in the store. With this combination of punches, he didn't believe that he could not change the status of Muggle wizards in the wizarding world.

Of course, what Higashino Yu said now are just the general directions. In fact, there will be a lot that needs to be fine-tuned when the operation comes.

"I hope you can succeed. Then when I talk to wizards from other countries, I can say that I am Higashino Yu's teacher." Dumbledore joked.

"You're too kind." Higashino Yuya smiled modestly.

"Actually, no."

Dumbledore blinked and then looked up at a picture of a huge fruit bowl. "Here we are."

Then, under the gaze of Higashino Yu, Dumbledore stretched out his hand and scratched a pear painted on the fruit plate. In an instant, the pear turned into a door handle. Dumbledore opened the door and they both walked into the kitchen together.

"Good evening, respected Professor Dumbledore, and Master Higashino Yuu."

As the two entered the kitchen, a shrill voice rang in their ears.

Then, Higashino Yuu saw a house elf wearing a snow-white pillowcase bowing to the two of them: "Excuse me, what can Qiqi help you with?"

Soon after, a large group of house-elves came running over, staring at the two with eyes as big as light bulbs, full of expectation.

For house-elves, being able to provide services to others is what makes them happiest.

"you know me?"

Higashino Yu pointed at himself in surprise.

"In fact, they can clearly call out the names of everyone in the school, and can even put your favorite food in front of you when serving food every day." Dumbledore said with a smile.

"Wow! This is really amazing!" Higashino Yuu couldn't help but admire. Being able to recognize all the students in the school and remember their food preferences is not something that can be done easily.

176. Unstoppable midnight snacks

"Yeah, they're all great."

Dumbledore nodded, fully agreeing with this statement.

"If they were not there in Hogwarts, it would not be possible to run as perfectly as it is now. They are an indispensable and important part of Hogwarts school."

Higashino Yu also agrees with this point. In this school, basically all wizards don't have to work. All the chores such as washing clothes, sweeping the floor, and cooking are done by the house-elves.

As for sympathy for house-elves, Higashino Yu might have some, but he wouldn't say anything. Now he hasn't even dealt with things between people, so how can he deal with things between house-elves and humans?

“They are born to serve people!”

This one sentence sums up everything about house-elves.

In fact, Higashino Yu had read in the history book of Hogwarts that elves were not good things in ancient times. Like the goblins in Gringotts, they were a kind of goblin. However, unlike the goblins in Gringotts who were biased towards humans, these elves were arrogant, ferocious, and hostile to humans, and often stole food for the winter from human warehouses.

So several wars broke out between wizards and elves in those days. In the last war, the elves were completely defeated. As losers, they had no choice but to sign the ancient contract in order to survive. From then on, the elves became slaves of wizards, and after being passed down from generation to generation, they became today's house-elves who "are born to serve people."

This can only be described as the survival of the fittest. Higashino Yuu might give respect to the other party because the other party is also an intelligent creature, but he will not say anything to liberate the other party.

"If I could, I would have liked to have one when I graduated."

"Haha, I don't agree with this, Higashino-san, because house-elves are an indispensable property of Hogwarts, and I can't own them privately." Dumbledore sighed with a smile.

Not everyone can have a house-elf. Even among pure-blood families, not every family has such a loyal and versatile servant.

As he spoke, Dumbledore handed Higashino Yu a piece of sugar cookie.

Higashino Yuu took it and took a bite, then frowned: "So sweet! It's a bit greasy."

"Haha, in fact, older people always like to eat some sweets." Dumbledore nodded and continued to stuff his mouth, "Well... Actually, I liked to eat it when I was young."

"Be careful of getting diabetes if you eat like this." Although he said this, Higashino Yu still finished the sugar biscuit in his hand. After all, wasting is not a good habit.

Looking at Dumbledore eating with gusto, Higashino You didn't know whether to leave or not. He shook his head helplessly and then fixed his eyes on the house-elf again.

"Um...you are Qiqi, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Dongye, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Well, it's nothing, I just want to borrow your equipment."

"Over there, Mr. Higashino." Kiki was a little surprised but still pointed to a small wooden door half a person's height not far away.

"Okay." Higashino You came to the small wooden door, then cast a shrinking spell on himself, instantly shrinking to the size of a house-elf.

"Huh?" Dumbledore uttered a light exclamation with a gleam in his eyes. The shrinking spell was not something that a young wizard who had just been in school for less than half a month could master.

But he didn't say much, just shrank and went into the kitchen.

Then he just happened to see Higashino Yu waving the magic wand in his hand, and the candle that had not been lit just now burned instantly.

Then he waved the magic wand again at the flour not far away, and suddenly a handful of flour flew in the air like a white snake, followed by water, pots, bowls, ladles, basins...

At this moment, Higashino Yuu was like an excellent music conductor. Every time he waved his wand, different instruments would jump. In the blink of an eye, a handful of white flour turned into crystal clear dragon beard noodles.
