53. The opening of the magic card
Three days have passed in a flash, and the most discussed thing in the past few days is the Forbidden Forest, none of the old birds in the seventh grade resisted this punishment, for them it is not so much a punishment as a reward, these three days they often show off everything they found in the Forbidden Forest in front of the lower grades, even if they see a stinger grass will take it out and say it for a long time, especially it is said that there are still people who meet unicorns in the Forbidden Forest, but no one believes it. These anecdotes are all tempting the younger students to explore the unknown and mysterious, and now most of the junior students no longer resist this punishment, and they are all looking forward to it soon, especially the sixth grade will be their turn in a few days.
At noon today, McGoth told Harry to go to Slytherin to inform Malfoy that they would meet at the Great Mirror on the fifth floor in the evening, Ron would go to Hufflepuff, and McGoth would contact the Ravenclaws.
After finishing their lessons on the history of magic and transfiguration, they hurried to finish their dinner and wait for the night to fall.
"Magos, didn't you say this is a daily necessities, why do you want us to bring this over?" Harry asked curiously, carrying the large package that Magos had received last time.
"Be quiet, Filch is in the hallway next door to us." Magos whispered as he stared at the map of the living spots. "I said casually last time there were too many people, and this is a tool for us to communicate in the future."
"Muggle stuff?" Ron, with a stack of notebooks in his hand, suddenly came to his senses.
McGoth nodded and made a small motion, pointing to the corner next to him, and Harry and the two nodded silently at the same time and hid with him. Shortly after they entered the corner, footsteps rang out, and Filch spoke to Lady Loris.
"I really don't understand what Headmaster Dumbledore thinks, those disobedient bunnies have made such a big mistake, why don't you expel a few people to make an example." Filch's whining of disgust grew closer, and then faded away.
"This one is so useful, Filch would never have imagined that we would have such a treasure." Ron looked at the map in McGoth's hand and smiled very much.
"Hurry up, in case he turns back, he'll waste time again." Harry urged.
When they were nearing the end of the game, Magos put away the map of the live spots, but didn't close it. Just like Harry in the original books, he subconsciously didn't want too many people to know about the existence of this thing.
"Malfoy, Theodore. You're here so early. As he spoke, he glanced at the tall, lanky boy beside Malfoy now.
"Hello, I'm McGoss. Will. Nice to meet you. ”
"Thank you for letting me participate in this program." Theodore introduced himself and said with a smile.
They didn't have long to talk about the twins and Ravenclaw, and Eddie brought three people, in addition to himself, and Roger, who was in the same grade. Davis and a fourth-grader, Hal Brown. O'Donigan and Sarah, 5th grade. Bartley.
"I'm glad you're on board." He greeted them one by one.
It is worth mentioning that Hal and Sara are both involved in the production of replica door knockers, and both have some experience in making monsters. Speaking of which, McGoth curiously asked them why they put a knocker in each break room, just so that they couldn't enter the lounge? Hal said no, because there was so much news about Gryffindor and Slytherin during this time, and they were not to be outdone to make a big news. Compared with McGoss, they thought that they had achieved unimaginable success, and they all provoked the four major colleges to fight in groups, and they couldn't do it beyond imagination.
"Then you guys are too good, you can make a replica knocker in just a few days." Magos looked at them with perverted eyes.
Sara waved her hand and said with a smile, "How is this possible, in fact, this imitation has been conceived by Ravenclaw for a long time, and many seniors who have graduated have put a lot of effort into it." We just made it before your freshmen started, and we didn't actually have the idea of coming up with it, but seeing how jubilant you guys were, the seventh-grade seniors couldn't help it, and they wanted to leave some legends before leaving. ”
"That's pretty impressive, too." McGoth gave a thumbs up.
"No, you're still amazing, it took us a long time to figure out that problem of yours, and I didn't expect it to be solved by you in less than one night." Sara looked at McGoth with some admiration. "Originally, there were two seventh-grade seniors who wanted to come to see this plan, but unfortunately it was their turn to go to the Forbidden Forest today, and their idea was that if there was any difficulty to find them, they wouldn't be involved, and if there were too many seniors, it would be a bit noisy."
"Thank you so much." McGoth shook his hand happily, to be honest, he also had such concerns, if the sixth or seventh grade students came, then he would probably have no weight in speaking, even now he had a feeling that he might be set aside, and now Sara said this to show that their Ravenclaw people would listen to him.
Then there was only one Hufflepuff left, and after a while before they arrived, the twins were already a little impatient, and urged McGoth to take a look. He said, I'll take a look, and then I ran to a corner where they couldn't see, picked up the map and saw where they were.
It's easy to find them, there are five people in total, they are on the fifth floor now, and the reason why they haven't arrived is known, they were blocked by Filch, and after reading it, they put it away and ran back.
"They were on the fifth floor, but they were blocked by Filch. We've got to figure it out. McGoss's words brought up the spirits of the people who were chatting, and the twin brothers happily said that they would leave it to them, and after asking for the location, the two of them ran straight over.
"It's okay for them to go." Malfoy asked in disbelief as he looked at the twins who had disappeared around the corner.
"Don't worry, Malfoy. No one knows Filch better than they do at Hogwarts. Magos gave him a reassuring look.
It wasn't long before the twins came over with Hufflepuff men.
"Sorry to keep you waiting." Cedric said apologetically.
"Don't talk about it yet, Filch should be looking for us everywhere on the fifth floor now, let's go to the secret room first. Walk. Fred interrupted their conversation and made his way to the chamber first.
Arriving at the last location, the twins chanted a spell to open the secret door of the secret room, and everyone entered. The people of the three major academies looked curiously, touching this and that. Shocking and novelty.
After entering the secret room, McGoth found that there were quite a lot of changes here, first of all, the twins had placed more than a dozen chairs and desks in two classrooms, and secondly, some test tube crucibles and other things were already there, and some old things around were also sorted out and placed in the corners.
"How did you help them get out?" Malfoy asked, looking at the twins with some curiosity.
"Dung Ball Bomb, Filch's nemesis." George triumphantly pulled it out and showed it to him.
Malfoy frowned and walked away.
"Okay, big guy, sit down first, today is the first time we've gotten together, let's introduce each other first, get to know each other, Cedric, can you introduce the people in your academy first?"
"Of course, first of all, this is Ernie of your rank. Macmillan. He pointed to a chubby boy.
"This is my friend, Cadwallad, also in third grade." Cadwallad stood up and shook McGoss's hand. He was a big man, a head taller than McGoss, estimated to be two meters tall.
"Both of them are fourth-grade seniors. Beard. Klucas and Anita. Beckson. The two of them, seniors who looked a little shy, smiled and nodded without speaking.
"The last one is our sixth-grade senior, Kang. Anat. "Kang. Anat stood up and smiled at McGoth and said, "I really like your creativity, my family has some connections to Muggle society and I used to play poker, but I never thought I could incorporate magic into it, it's a great idea." ”
"I'm glad you're interested in my ideas, senior." Magos politely.
Kang interrupted him, "There are no seniors here, just a group of little wizards who want to play pranks, Magos, you are the initiator, you have the final say here, you can do whatever you want me to do." ”
Hearing this, McGoss's heart was completely put down, "Okay, everyone, you're welcome, first of all, I want to discuss with you first, what materials are better for us to make magic cards, there are a few decks of playing cards here, whether you have seen friends or not, take a look at them, understand." As he spoke, he handed out the playing cards.
"This paper is a bit hard, but the parchment paper is not."
"Just use magic to make them harder."
"No, it's going to make it harder."
"But you can't use Muggle paper for what to do, they are very unadaptable to magic." McGoss's question has led to a lot of divergent opinions among those in the room.
"Magos, I have an idea." Fred said. "We don't have to limit ourselves to paper, we can use corners and stuff like that. Once you've made it, just create a softening charm. ”
"No, Fred, what if they become resistant to magic after they are made, don't forget that the premise proposed by Magos is to resist the spell." George retorted. Fred shrugged and didn't say anything.
"Guys, I actually have an idea." McGoss's words silenced everyone, "But then we're going to have a lot of expenses." ”
"Tell me what you think, we still have the money." Malfoy's words were taken seriously by everyone.
"Let me start with my estimates, I expect us to spend around 1,000 Galleons." His words stunned everyone who was not short of money just now, and no one expected that so much money would be spent.
"If someone wants to quit, it doesn't matter, I know it's not a small amount." Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, no one said leave.
"McGoss, let's talk about what you want to do. With so many people, 1000 Galleons is nothing. Eddie didn't see anyone talking.
