Chapter 13: A Howling Letter
Evan turned to look at Fred and George, and continued, "I thought about it, the money earned from Hogwarts Wizardry can be used to fund all the current students to conduct magical research or make inventions, and I am honored to inform you two that you will be my first recipient of funding, and you can advertise your products in the newspaper to bring more joy to people." ”
"Oh, Aven!" Fred and George looked at Aven with a look of emotion.
"As for you, Hermione. Evan turned to look at Hermione, who looked as if she had been petrified, "I want to ask you to be the editor-in-chief of Hogwarts Wizardry and Wizardry. ”
"What?!" Hermione hadn't reacted yet.
"I'm in charge of the final review of all the articles, and if you want, you can share your homework on it, and it will definitely be welcomed. ”
"No, Aven!" Hermione shook her head in refusal, and Evan looked at the other in surprise.
"I can't do that, I mean, do the homework yourself!" Hermione continued in a brisk voice, "but I'd love to be the editor-in-chief of Hogwarts Wizardry and Wizardry. In fact, I think you're a brilliant idea. ”
"yes, a newspaper entirely our own!" Fred said.
"Trust me, Aven, you'll be written into the history of the school. George said.
Next, none of the four of them went back to the house to sleep, and gathered in front of the fire with excitement on their faces to discuss, and all the time the main matters were determined.
Due to a lack of manuscripts and limited staff, Hogwarts Wizardry and Wizardry was tentatively scheduled to be published once a week. It will be divided into 10 sections, with two sections, News and Current Affairs Commentary, which will be used to publish all the latest and in-depth reviews of all the things happening at the school, and will be edited by Hermione. As for the source of the news, in addition to relying on a few people to collect it together, Evan is going to communicate with the ghosts in the castle, and they know almost everything.
The Entertainment Mysteries section is given to Fred and George, who are sure they will be able to do it, mainly introducing the various places, passages and some little secrets in the castle.
In addition, the magical creatures section used to introduce the animals in the Forbidden Forest can be entrusted to Hagrid, the Quidditch plate is given to Harry and Ron, and the section that introduces the history of Hogwarts is in charge of Evan himself.
There is also a section to show the character style, and Evan decided to make Lockhart the main target of this school year, believing that before his old background is exposed, he should be popular with girls.
As for the fiction section and the magic academic exchange section, it is open to all teachers and students in the school. The last advertising section is also in charge of Aven.
In addition to Fred and George's plans to advertise the magical fireworks of their successful transformation, Evan plans to take a trip to Hogsmeade, and I believe that the merchants will be happy to advertise in the newspapers, but first to ensure the sales of Hogwarts Wizardry and Wizardry.
"Hermione is in charge of all the final reviews of the manuscript, if there are too many, you can ask Ginny for help, as for external communication, leave it to me, and ask Fred and George for publicity. "If all goes well, in a week's time, we'll be able to print our first newspaper." ”
When Evan returned to his bedroom, he realized that it was nearly two o'clock in the morning.
In the circular room, surrounded by five four-poster beds decorated with red velvet, flanked by several high, narrow windows.
Avan noticed that his suitcase had been lifted, and he gently climbed onto the bed, turning his head to see the bed of the boy named Colin next to him.
It occurred to him that he could find Colin as a special cameraman for Hogwarts Wizardry and Wizardry. Immediately afterward, he came up with a few new ideas, but he was so tired that he soon fell asleep.
The next morning, when Evan walked into the Great Hall, he saw Harry and Ron sitting at the Gryffindor table, next to Hermione, who was looking down and writing something on parchment.
"Hermione, you actually wrote an article to condemn us. Ron said in a surprised tone.
"Good morning!"
Evan walked over to the three men and sat down across from them, and in front of him were bowls of porridge, plates of pickled herring, mountains of slices of bread, and plates of eggs and salted meat.
"Aven, just in time, look at what Hermione wrote!" Ron turned to look at Evan, "An article condemning us for driving to the school, citing the International Federation of Wizards' secrecy laws and the regulations for the protection of underage wizards, suggesting that the school punish us severely. God, she even asked for the school Quidditch tournament to be cancelled. ”
"Shut up, Ron!" Hermione said stiffly, "I'm not that bored, this is just an article I'm going to post in the Hogwarts Wizardry and Wizardry Newspaper to call attention to the safety of underage wizards. ”
"Excuse me, what?" asked Harry, looking up.
"It's Hogwarts Wizardry, Aven, explain to them, I'm about to finish this paragraph. Hermione lowered her head and wrote again.
"Actually, it's like this"
Evan had just finished explaining to the two of them when Harry and Ron heard a commotion overhead.
Hundreds of owls swarmed in, circling the auditorium, dropping letters and packages into the conversational crowd, and a big gray guy suddenly fell into Hermione's pot. Suddenly, milk and feathers splashed all over them.
"Errol!" Ron shouted, pulling the wet owl out with his talons.
It was the Weasley owl, and Evan saw the owl slumped on the table with a wet red envelope in its mouth.
He knew right away what it was, a howling letter!
After some hesitation, Ron reached out with a trembling hand to open the envelope, at Neville's suggestion. In the next second, Mrs. Weasley's voice rang out, a hundred times louder than usual, and the plates and spoons on the table were resounding, and the echoes of the stone walls on all sides were deafening.
The entire auditorium turned to see who had received the shouting letter, and Ron cowered in his chair, only a reddened forehead.
"Stealing the car, I received a letter from Dumbledore last night, and your father was so ashamed that he almost died. We worked hard to bring you up, but I didn't expect you to do such a thing, and you almost killed Harry and Aven!"
When Evan heard his name pop up, he hurriedly lowered his head, trying his best not to hear, as if he had suddenly become interested in the egg in front of him.
"It's so infuriating, your dad will be censored at work, it's all your fault. If you don't follow the rules, we'll bring you back right away!"
The roar stopped, and the ears were still buzzing.
The red envelope, which had fallen from Ron's hand to the ground, burned, curled and turned to ashes. Evan looked up and saw Harry and Ron sitting dumbfounded, as if they had just been washed by the tide.
In the auditorium, a few more people smiled, and the sound of speech gradually sounded.
