Chapter 8: Looking Up at the Stars

Because of Hermione's magical powers, the Transfiguration class had to end early.

And Hermione also got a title that can be compared to Harry Potter - the Golden Girl, unlike Harry Potter who is called the Golden Boy because people pin their hopes on him, Hermione's title is indeed equated with Golden Gallon.

"If you hadn't asked me to try, I don't think I'd ever gotten that called." In addition to the weeping willow by the lake from the castle, Hermione gently stroked the yellowing willow leaf while talking to Albert, "I should be glad that I am an ordinary person and not born into a wizarding family to use scientific theories to perform magic. ”

"Well, that's amazing, Hermione, don't you think we should study what magic is more than magic?" Albert smiled faintly and handed Hermione a reddish apple.

"Hermione, do you feel it? These wizards are ridiculous. ”

"Ridiculous? What does that mean? Hermione took a bite of the apple and looked at Albert puzzled, although she felt that it was amazing and wonderful to cast magic scientifically, but Hermione didn't quite understand why Albert said that wizards were ridiculous, was it because wizards didn't tell ordinary people, that is, Muggles in their mouths, these rules? But if it's the rules of physics, even if the wizards don't say it, the scientists will show it sooner or later, right?

"Huh?" Albert suddenly realized that Hermione was just an ordinary 12-year-old girl, even if she was smarter, but she couldn't think like herself with the mind of a physicist, or rather, if it weren't for the inexplicable extra knowledge in her mind, even if she was now the most pinnacle physicist of this era, she would be shocked by magic, right?

"It's nothing, I just think they're stupid, let's be smart!" Sure enough, when some words were still not enough to be spoken, Albert decisively changed his arrogant tone and said.

"Hahaha, it's worthy of being a genius prodigy, but I think we still have to be humble, after all, professors know more than we do, right? We're just new creatures at the gates of the wizarding world. Hermione, who had always thought she was much better than her peers, once again felt that she was only on the same level as Albert, and that the other novices were just children.

"So, I'll go back to reading first, I heard that there is a stargazing class in the evening, let's study the vast starry sky together in the evening!"

"Well, of course. Strive to become a great wizard together! Hermione took out Albert's Fundamental Physics, "I'll just read here, the sun is good!" See you in the evening. ”

After all, Albert broke up with Hermione, and he needed to tell Yiyi through his personal terminal and ask Yiyi to mail him some batteries and books.

Professor McGonagall, on the other hand, was in Dumbledore's office narrating,

"Look at this class of freshmen, little Harry doesn't seem to have any exposure to magic, it's hard to imagine that you'd let him live in a place like that."

"McGonagall, you know, it's for Harry's protection." Dumbledore said to McGonagall as he chewed on candy. His eyes were always on the phoenix beside him, which was grooming its feathers with its head down.

"I'm assuming you really want Harry to grow up to be a warrior who can stand up to that guy, but why don't you look at someone who fits better? The boy who suddenly appeared on the parchment roll, Mr. Crowley, had mastered in just five minutes in my class how to turn matches into needles, and even into flowers. There's also Miss Granger, who also looks to have more potential than Harry, and with a magical run, she turns an entire classroom into a palace of gold. "I have to say that Professor McGonagall still prefers and defends Harry Potter in some ways, and she has always believed that with great power comes great responsibility. And gifted children clearly have more potential than Harry who needs protection.

"No, no, no, this qiē is all predestined by fate, even if Mr. Crowley and Miss Granger seem to be talented, but only Harry Potter can defeat Voldemort." Turning around, Dumbledore looked at the sky with a look of vicissitudes. He lied, even though he had believed that the only one who could defeat Voldemort was Harry before Crowley appeared, until that night two months ago.

After the man and woman suddenly appeared at Hogwarts and showed their might, Dumbledore realized that he didn't believe in fate that much.

"If fate is predestined, then what else do we have to work on?" Professor McGonagall looked at Dumbledore's back and coldly spat out the words.

"Get out!" Dumbledore spat out a few words even more indifferently, and he was now very confused as to whether to raise Harry Potter according to the plan, or to do his best to cultivate Crowley, who seemed to have more potential.

Soon, it was evening.

Apparently, the stargazing class was in separate houses, and all of the Gryffindor first-year children were taken to the rooftop, where the clouds were dispersed and the white moonlight turned the ground silvery white.

"Good evening, Albert." As soon as Hermione reached the rooftop, she saw Albert, who hurried through the crowd to Albert's side.

"Good evening, Hermione." Albert wasn't there listening to Professor McGonagall like the other kids, like Ron and Harry, he was pulling some parts out of his bag little by little and piecing together something.

In contrast to the strict environment of other classes, stargazing is a relaxed extracurricular activity, where McGonagall is only there to explain horoscopes and divination to the new students, without restricting their activities at all. Some of the children simply lay on the ground and counted the stars there.

"What are you doing, Albert?"

"Hermione, look!" Albert pieced the pieces together little by little, and a telescope appeared in his hand, "Do you want to try the moon?" ”

Hermione took the telescope, and the telescope, which she didn't think she could see clearly, magically showed a high-magnification effect, and a pitted, desolate, and beautiful moon appeared in front of her eyes.

"In the afternoon, I asked my mother to send me parts, and after using transfiguration to form some of these parts, I added some other reflection systems, and the effect can be comparable to that of a 4ooo astronomical telescope!"

Albert said proudly, but his voice was not loud, after all, it was his own thing, and Albert didn't want anyone else to play except for Hermione, who was walking closer.

"Is that the moon? Albert...... Isn't it said that there are beautiful goblins living on it? Why does it seem so desolate and lonely? "Hermione, though she had come into contact with the science of the ordinary world, was ignorant in this respect, after all, no one had ever told her that her beautiful moon was so inhospitable.

"I don't know if there are any goblins, but I do know that on July 2o-21, 1969, the United States on the other side of the ocean had the "Apollo" 11 spacecraft carrying three astronauts to the moon, among which Armstrong and Aldrin successfully landed on the moon, realizing the ideal of human beings to set foot on the moon. Since then, the United States has launched the "Apollo" spacecraft six times one after another, five of which have been successful. In total, 12 astronauts landed on the moon. And, if you use a telescope with a higher magnification, you may be able to see the flag they left on the moon. Albert explained to Hermione.

"On the moon? The United States on the other side of the ocean? The flag of the United States? Even the smart Hermione felt a little dizzy at this moment, "Can we fly into the sky?" I know about rockets and the like, but isn't that something that can only fly out and have no effect? That's what my mom and dad told me. ”

"Haha, I don't know how many years ago your parents sued you. You must know that after the first Soviet Union flew into space, mankind continued to move there. Do you know why I don't believe in so-called astrological divination? ”

"Why?" Hermione was even more puzzled.

"Hermione, do you know what a light-year is?"

"How far does a light travel in a year? So what? ”

"So what? Even if the sun is so close to us, we can only see its brilliance eight minutes ago, let alone the stars, the constellations. A shorter four or five light-years, a little farther has reached millions of light-years, and it really doesn't make sense for us, who have been looking at the light in the history of the universe, to rely on the starlight for divination. Albert said fiercely, for magic, even if he accepted it, but he didn't want to believe in any prophecy, it was destined. Because butterflies across the ocean can also cause a storm, it's ridiculous to say that it's fate.

"But even if you don't learn any stargazing and divination, just looking at the stars in the sky is a kind of enjoyment!" Hermione smiled sweetly, she gave the telescope back to Albert, and spun around in place twice, "I've never seen such a pure night sky and so many stars in the city all my life. It's so beautiful! ”

"Well, I also agree, the vast universe, the infinite galaxy, is indeed the most beautiful scenery......"

"Hey, Meteor, make a wish!"

"It's too late to make a wish now!"

"Just hurry up!"
