In a situation where people feel that leisure is everywhere, time always flies. In the blink of an eye, the snow on the ground had melted away, and the cold air had gradually become warm and humid.

In February, winter handed the dominance of this world to spring, when everything revives and the grass grows and the warbler flies.

Throughout the month, apart from the initial period, Maca felt that she really didn't have much excitement and character in her life.

He had already communicated with our Minister about the proposal for the alchemy event, and most of the nerve-wracking matters were on the other side; As for Lucius's matter, even he didn't expect that it would be solved more smoothly than expected, he just wrote a letter and sent it to the Ministry of Magic, looking for a bad excuse for the so-called "undercover", and Lucius was released safely.

Come to think of it, he and Mr. Scrimgeour are on honeymoon right now, and their relationship is as good as if they were in the same pants. In addition, he himself is a wizard who defeated the Dark Lord, and he said that whoever is undercover must be undercover - even if he is not, he can be turned into a yes.

After that, the Malfoys and their sons came to him to thank him, and Lucius went to find Narcissa...... Well, that's where Lucius's missing wife went.

When all the mess was smoothed out one by one, Maca suddenly noticed that everything seemed to be smoothing out. There were so few things to worry about that he couldn't get used to the slow-paced life for a while.

So, in the second half of January, he spent most of his time at Hogwarts Castle, except for the occasional visit to the fisherman Fisher's house. Day after day lectures and the study of magic, every now and then I take a walk on the shores of the lake that is gradually unfrozen, and the days pass comfortably and comfortably.

If he hadn't coughed a few times, he would have almost forgotten the chaotic time he had experienced at the end of last year.

Yes, excessive time and space travel has left him some inconspicuous but unforgettable traces after all, and he still hasn't figured out what kind of harm it is.

Of course, compared to Maca's ease and leisure, Hermione, Ron, and the other group of fifth-graders didn't have a good time.

The amount of homework every night forced them to stay up late every day, and for a House player like Harry, who also had to train in Quidditch, time became even tighter.

Halfway through this year's Quidditch Cup, last year was so distracted by various emergencies that the entire Year 5 Quidditch competition was somewhat weak. So far, the Gryffindor team has not had a good record, and it is still quite risky to win the final championship.

It is in such a busy time period that I can't tell whether it is lucky or unlucky, because Valentine's Day, which most of the children and young girls are secretly looking forward to, is coming.

In the land of the United Kingdom, the age of 16 is a wonderful dividing line in life. Maybe many people who have passed this age will no longer care too much, but when everyone is about to face this hurdle, the youthful feelings will be stupid.

Because this age is the rough mark that separates you from whether you can find a life partner or not.

Let's not talk about getting married or not, it's still early for a big child! But once you have the right to do something, when you see the object of your heart, the feeling of heartbeat is simply unstoppable. The fifth-graders, who were busy with the LS exams, were inevitably going to make a commotion when that day came.

Harry was wondering, wondering if he should keep an eye on the other girls. Otherwise, at this time when he saw that the boys around him were running for the first love in his life, even if he was sluggish, he couldn't help but feel that his life was vaguely lacking.

Ron was obviously worried too, because that Lavender Brown had suddenly confessed to him in the Gryffindor common room! At that time, although he was carried away by the pride that filled his chest, he agreed without paying attention, but when he turned back to the dormitory, he covered his head and fell into a painful struggle.

Hermione...... Well, she was just as worried. In fact, she was born before Harry and the others, turning 16 in September last year.

Although she had already blocked Maca's mouth with a sneak attack-like confession earlier, in the days that followed, looking at Luna, who was gradually getting better and better with her, she was no longer sure how much of her determination was left.

That girl is indeed always a little weird, but after more contact, she also deeply feels the purity of the other party's heart. Fighting for a maca with such a pure white heart, she felt more and more guilty. And this mood directly led to her never being able to take another step forward, and the distance between herself and Maca has always been maintained at a certain level.

On February 14th, which is about to come, should I be cheeky enough to make a date with Maca?

Miss Hermione Granger has always been a very assertive girl. But this time, her sanity and kindness have made her fall into a strange circle, and God knows how many times she has been in that closed circle?

As for Luna and Maca, the former didn't seem to have much idea about Valentine's Day or anything, while the latter, he had noticed, but there was one thing recently that forced him to put aside the days when the boys and girls were adding affection.

It's not that there was any accident, but in his opinion, the day is still as smooth as ever, and everything seems to be progressing in a reasonable way. However, Madame Maxim sent another letter from Beauxbatons, and with it, the decision of the meeting of the International Federation of Wizards.

A world-class alchemical tournament had already begun, and Madame Maxime had officially invited him to meet him for a face-to-face meeting on the plans for a preliminary exploration of Nick Lemay's alchemical laboratory.

Not to mention that Hermione is still thinking about whether to ask him out for Valentine's Day, even if he wants to spend this holiday with Luna, most of the time he will not have that spare time.

At noon on the day he received the letter, he gently closed a magic book and rested it on top of the pile of books beside him.

Recently, he has been reading some alchemical literature, but as he expected, much of the knowledge in this discipline is incomplete, and it is difficult for people to summarize a more systematic theoretical system. From the materials he consulted, it was found that in fact, this discipline must have been unusually grand in its most complete period, and what he could see alone could divide many seemingly completely different branches of scholarship.

He once tried to apply and analyze the material rules he studied, and found that in alchemy, "matter and spirit" have corresponding research directions, and it is simply possible to break away from the category of magic and form a specific knowledge system alone.

Judging from Nick Lemay's highest alchemical masterpiece, the Philosopher's Stone, the direction of his research should be the branch of alchemy based on the material system and supplemented by spirit and rules. And in his laboratory, it is unknown that he may encounter many unique alchemical products.

But in general, he still doesn't know much about those alchemy arrays and other things. Those alchemy symbols were very different from the ancient magic texts he studied, and the inconsistency between the two brought great interference to his alchemy research.

Perhaps, only in Nick Lemay's laboratory can he find a more reliable way to interpret it, right?

Maca stood up and twisted her neck, then walked around the almost wall-to-wall stack of books and opened the office door to the hallway outside.

In the past few days, he has become interested in the Flober caterpillars that Hagrid raised, because since Hagrid mentioned it that day, he has found that there is really something wrong with those little ones. What's more bizarre is that in recent days, they have actually stopped munching on lettuce leaves, and inexplicably scurrying around again.

It stands to reason that their active period is usually at the end of spring, when they are busy breeding offspring and keeping as many offspring as possible for themselves. But now, it's time for them to feast!

All the way to Hagrid's hunting lodge, he went around the house and made a beeline for his backyard. There, Hagrid had already erected large sheets of rattan blankets for the "big fat boys" who were nearly ten inches long to live comfortably.

Not to mention anything else, at least Maca and Snape will not have to worry about the thickener they will use for ten or twenty years.

"Hagrid, how are they today?" Maca stood outside the fence, looking at the sea of insects inside, and casually asked a nonsense, which was just a greeting.

"I still don't eat much, and there's no sign of mating, just crawling around!"

Hagrid's tall figure stood out in the small courtyard, and as he kept catching the caterpillars that were almost crawling out of the backyard back onto the rattan carpet, Maca had to use magic to give him a hand.

Seriously, though, Hagrid has a lot of fun with it, and when it comes to his love for magical creatures, he's no one to lose.

"I told you to get them covered...... "Marca persuaded them again as she drove the Flober caterpillars back into the middle, "or you'll be going to be moving them around all day!" ”

"No, I don't think this will last long, they must be something new."

As he said this, Hagrid seemed excited. His favorite thing is to breed new varieties, especially species like the Flober caterpillar, which is extremely genetically stable, and alienation is even more difficult to find.

He really wanted to see what would become of these little things in the end!
