After the second attack of the basilisk, all the teachers and students in the school finally knew an important piece of information: somewhere in Hogwarts Castle, in the Slytherin vault, there was a terrifying basilisk! Recently, it came out to attack students at night! As a result, Hogwarts has imposed the strictest curfew since the day after Colin was attacked!

Just this morning, after the students' breakfast, Headmaster Dumbledore personally announced a new school rule: all students in the school must return to the common room before dark! All evening club activities or classes will be cancelled! Classes are all adjusted to daytime hours! Any student who is still lingering outside the lounge after dark! Once discovered! All will be punished severely!

Some of the school's prime-aged professors were also divided into several groups by Headmaster Dumbledore and asked to take turns on duty! At night, a team of these professors patrols the main castle! Beware of the basilisk that may appear at any time!

Because of this is the case at Hogwarts now, the Gryffindor House lounge after dinner today will be more lively than ever! Students of all grades, who had nothing to do and didn't want to go to bed too early, were getting together in twos and threes. Most of them are talking about topics of mutual interest, some are busy with their never-ending homework, and some are leisurely playing wizard chess on their own.

Now the Gryffindor lounge is no longer allowed to go out! Headmaster Dumbledore's doglegs, the two male and female prefects are sitting on a chair and cross-legged, waiting at the exit of the common room! They had just received an order that after this time of the day, everyone in Gryffindor House was only allowed to enter! Don't go out!

So, students don't have much to choose from right now, other than the common room lobby and their own dorms! It's all about that damn basilisk and the curfew! But for the sake of their own lives, although the students were a little dissatisfied in their hearts, they were not stupid enough to do things such as using spells to hide from the prefect standing guard and sneak out!

"Harry, ask you something! Are you really the heir of Slytherin? After Ron had finished half of his homework, he finally couldn't bear the loneliness and whispered to Harry.

After Colin was attacked last night, rumors began to circulate in the school today that Harry Potter was actually the heir to Slytherin! He also said that it was the basilisk he unleashed! The reason is that at the dueling club last night, Harry actually said snake language! He wanted to command the snake to attack Malfoy! And the Parseltongue is one of the hallmarks of the Slytherin heir!

"Of course not! Ron! Why do you want to doubt me? I could have been with Hermione and the others all the time last night! And I've never left halfway through!! Harry angrily refuted Ron's question! He's been punished by Snape for another ten pages of homework today, and he's tired of it now! How could he have thought that Ron would bother him with such a question! Are they still not friends anymore?

"Ron! You! Ay...! Hermione, who was quietly reading a book, sighed and shook her head! She's really a little worried about Ron's IQ right now!

Madam Pomfrey shouldn't have let him go sooner, she should have left him alone in the school infirmary at night, and let the Slytherin basilisk attack him! It's better to petrify him too, and then no one will ask such stupid questions again!

"Don't you know what was going on? Harry and I had walked back with me and a few other classmates after the dueling club had finished their lessons! He never left halfway, and he didn't have time to commit the crime at all! There is no motive to commit the crime! You know, Harry and Colin, the relationship between the two of them is quite good! They're friends! Hermione didn't understand, there were so many classmates who could testify, how could he still suspect Harry? That's ......! Never mind! Hermione suddenly didn't want to talk about Ron! Let's continue reading her own book!

"But..., that's what everyone else says." Ron craned his neck, a little afraid to make eye contact with Hermione. He just asked curiously, why did she lose her temper so much? He even spoke in such a stern tone!

"You believe what others say? Don't you believe what we say? Ha! It's hilarious! Hermione glared at Ron in disbelief! The meaning is obvious: what are you using your brain for? Furnishings? Do you believe what those Slytherins say? Now you're not only not helping Harry, you're also coaxing?

"Ahh I'm sorry, Harry! That's not what I meant! I'm just....just curious about what you can say Parseltongue! That's right! That's it! After all, that's a parseltongue! It is said that the Slytherin of the year was too! So......" Seeing Harry on the side also looking at him angrily, Ron quickly apologized and explained.

While Hermione, Harry, and Ron were struggling over whether Harry was the heir, the Weasley twins George and Fred suddenly took a large bag of things, opened the entrance, and rushed to the middle of the common room, and suddenly climbed on top of the common round table.

The twins' behavior frightened the two prefects standing guard! They don't know what the hell these two guys are doing? It's only now that I'm rushing back! If it weren't for the fact that there was still a little bit of time before the official curfew, it is estimated that Fred and the others would have been arrested by the prefect and handed over to Professor McGonagall for disposal!

"Good news! Good news! Ladies and gentlemen! Look at us here! We have good news for you tonight! Great news! Ignoring the angry looks of the other students, George and Fred took a wand to his throat and cast a amplification charm on his throat so that all the students in the lounge could hear what he was saying.

"I think everyone should know about it, right? There is now a great danger in the castle of Hogwarts School! That's right! It's that damn basilisk! The Basilisk in the Slytherin Vault! George said in a deep tone.

"It is said! Anyone who sees its eyes directly will die in no time! Even if you only see it indirectly, you will be petrified! Think of Lady Loris! And that poor Colin classmate! As soon as George stopped, Fred quickly added.

After seeing that most of the Gryffindor students were attracted by their words, and were also intimidated by the success, the Veles twins nodded in satisfaction. Then, they finally picked up the two hemp cloth pockets that had been at their feet since just now. The reason why the two of them came back so late tonight was to make these things in a hurry!

"In this regard, Fred and I worked hard for everyone's safety after a day and a night! Finally, two special effect treasures that can be used against basilisks have been invented! There are definitely special effects! We dare to guarantee it with Gryffindor's honor! As he spoke, George shook the large pocket he was carrying.

"Look! Now these targeted treasures are here! With them, you will no longer be afraid of the basilisk threat! As long as you have them, you can walk in the school hallways with peace of mind and boldness! ”

"That's right! As long as you have them, the basilisk will never be able to take your life! The terrifying threat of Hogwarts will be gone! Fred immediately picked up George's words again, and the brothers sang and promoted it in harmony.

"So, what exactly are these two things you invented? And what does it do? "Neville, who has long been talked about by the two of them? Longbottom, at last, couldn't help but ask.

That's great! That's what you're waiting for! When George and Fred heard Neville's words, they immediately looked at each other and smiled! They had been thinking about whether to spend money on a trust or ask Harry, who they knew well, to help them! It's just that the time is too busy today, and they don't have time to prepare in advance! Now it's good! Look! Someone will soon send it to the door as a support! Neville really deserves to be the best supporting actor of the year!

"That's a good question!"

"Come and see! It's called: The Crystal Mirror Far from the Death Gaze! As long as you take it with you, you will be away from the death gaze of the terrifying basilisk! Even if you look directly into the eyes of the basilisk, you won't die! Each only costs 10 silver west! What do you think? Surprised? ”

George pulled out a pair of sleek flat glasses from his hemp cloth pocket, with a coating on them with a faint magical color, which looked like sunglasses, but in a slightly different color! If you pair it with that long name, it looks very extraordinary!

In fact, George's sentence is not complete, wearing this glasses, after seeing the basilisk, he will definitely not die, but the fate of being petrified is absolutely inescapable! But it managed to save a small life, didn't it?

Actually, it's just a stall worth less than a pound! If you buy it in large quantities, it may be less than ten shillings per pair! These were all bargains they had to buy from the Muggle world overnight and then use the owl to expedite them! After that, the two brothers spent almost all of their free time during the day, applying them a cool-looking magic color coating. As for what is the use of this coating? Hehe! You're asking too much!

And now, it was such a pair of glasses that cost less than ten shillings, and they were going to sell it for ten silver sicos! You know, the current exchange rate of Gringotts to British pounds is one gold galleon, which is about five pounds sterling! And one gold galleon can be exchanged for seventeen silver sico! Then, as long as they sell a pair of glasses, they can make at least eight silver sike profits! These two guys really deserve to be unscrupulous profiteers!

"Let's take a look! This treasure in my hand is called: The Crow of the Magic Rooster! It's so small and lightweight that it can even fit in your pocket at any time! As soon as you put mana into it, it will be able to make a rooster crow! If you look it up, you will know that it is clearly written in the book that the basilisk is the most afraid of the rooster's crow! It will help you drive away deadly basilisks! Each of them only costs 10 pieces of silver! What do you think? Not surprised? ”

Fred reached out and pulled out a strange little box from the pocket he was carrying. Hermione, who grew up in the Muggle world, was instantly recognizable! It's actually a simplified version of a pronunciation box! Toys for little ones! You can buy several pounds for a pound! The two of them didn't even have time to erase the factory logo and logo on it! Hermione almost wanted to laugh when she saw it!

Now, instead of playing a piece of music, it can repeat the sharp and loud crow of a rooster back and forth! As for the need to use magic power, it is estimated that the two brothers changed the battery to magic power to generate electricity, right? That's an interesting idea! With this creative invention, it is worth ten silver sike!

Hermione thought about it seriously, these two things might still be useful, it was a bit difficult for the two of them! That glasses should really be able to avoid direct death, as Lady Loriss and Colin with the camera are proof of! They all saw the basilisk's eyes indirectly! It's just that one is reflected through stagnant water, and the other is through the camera lens!

For the music box, Hermione just thought it was possible to chase away the basilisk! She's not too sure! So just think it's possible! After all, there was no example to prove it, and she didn't dare to jump to conclusions now! But overall, both of these things are superb! Hermione felt that these two were the real elite talents in the wizarding world! It's a shame they were able to come up with a solution to the basilisk so quickly!

"If two buy at the same time! There are also discounts! Each purchased separately is 10 silver sicos! Refuse to make a counteroffer! And if you buy it at the same time......"

"If you buy two at the same time, you only need one gold Galleon! Isn't it great value? What are you waiting for? ”

The two twin brothers spoke so eloquently on the stage that the student audience was stunned, and after a moment of silence, the Gryffindors finally reacted and began to rush up, asking for money to buy them.

In their opinion, these things sound reasonable and plausible! Then buy it first! After all, it's about your own life! Hands are fast! Slow hands! Grab one for yourself! Anyway, it's just the price of two snacks, and it's not very expensive!

"Give it to me! Give me! I want a pair of glasses! A clever and cute first-year girl was at the front, pulling out ten silver sicos from her pocket, and quickly snatched a pair of enchanted-colored flat glasses from George's hand.

"Give it to me! I want it too! I want both! Here! Giving you money! It's a gold galleon! "A fat boy squeezed hard, and his chubby hand was holding a golden golden Galleon! I took two things right away!

"Give it to me! Give me! I want it too! I just have to buy that box! ”

"Nope! You go away! Squeeze what squeeze! I came first! I want both! ”

"Hey! Don't squeeze it! I'm going to be out of breath! ”

"What? What's on top of you? I don't stir the base! I'll turn my face again! ”

......

"Bastard! How dare you touch my mother's ass while you're messing around? Are you looking for death? ”

"I, I didn't mean to! You stepped on my foot first! I just want to push ...... Yes!!! Neville, who was glared at by a girl in front of him, hurriedly prepared to explain, he really didn't mean it just now! She was the one who stepped on his foot first! However, the hot-tempered senior girl didn't have time to listen to his explanation now, so she directly punched him in the eye socket!

……

"That's it! All right! Please line up and come one by one! We have a lot of preparations! Everyone's got a share! Ouch! Who are you? Don't rob it! Hold it! You haven't paid yet! Where to run! Legs stiffen and stop! ”

The Weasley twin brothers, George and Fred, looked at each other triumphantly and began to maintain order, grabbing a little slippery head who wanted to fish in troubled waters, and reclaiming the stolen goods! Want to grab something without giving money? Now these little imps are really reversed!

George and Fred all the income from selling rings a while ago was invested in this batch of goods, and they were still a little nervous before, afraid that this batch of goods would be smashed in their hands, and finally make the bamboo basket empty! But according to the current situation, not only do they not need to worry in the slightest, but they will soon make a lot of money again! Need to restock?

While selling their goods, the two brothers thought: Look at the current momentum, if you go to the other three colleges tomorrow and sell them all for another round, you can make at least a few hundred gold Galleons, right? It looks like I'm going to get rich! It was as if they saw countless golden gallons beckoning to them desperately!

Harry, who was standing at the back of the crowd, thought about it, and he also took out a gold Galleon and walked over and lined up. At the same time, Hermione followed her, and she was also planning to buy a pair of flat glasses! As for that pronunciation box? She thinks it's better to forget it! Don't spend that unjust money!

"Ron! Aren't you going to buy something? Harry was soon back, playing with the pronunciation box and glasses, he was already wearing glasses for nearsightedness, and the magic glasses away from the death gaze made it a little difficult for him! He didn't know how to wear it, he couldn't wear two glasses together, right? That's stupid!

"Yes, Ron! Why don't you go and buy one? These glasses are really useful! Before the professors can deal with the basilisk, they may be able to save their lives with it! Hermione put away her glasses, this kind of life-saving thing is not expensive anyway, and it is always good to buy one to have in hand!

She didn't plan to wear it now, though, and the Gryffindor break room was still safe! As for the music box...... She always felt a little stupid to have that crow sounding box on her, and it didn't seem to be very reliable! Can a recorded rooster crow have the same potency as a live rooster crow? This is doubtful! To be verified! So she wasn't going to buy it.

"Huh? No! I don't have that much money! And George and Fred will definitely not give it to me in vain! I don't want it...... "He has less than five silver in his pocket!" Since he was denied and ridiculed for asking for the ring last time, Ron thought that this time, the twin brothers would definitely not give it to him for nothing, so he didn't dare to go up again to dislike people.

"Oh? Do you think so? My dear brother Ron! We're not the stingy ghosts you think! After everyone had bought it, George and Fred had time to pack their things and come over, only to hear Ron's words!

"That's right! Even if you don't ask, we'll give you a glasses! Now, here you go! Take it well! Fred slipped a pair of glasses into Ron's jacket pocket.

"And if you accidentally get petrified, Ron, we'll work together to carry you home! What do you think? Fred? "George is carrying a heavy money bag, today's Gryffindor alone has already made them a lot of money, and there will be three major houses after dawn tomorrow! That's another big war! They need to get an early night's rest tonight to recharge their batteries!

"Yes! I think we don't have a decorative statue in our house! At Christmas, we can hang those decorative magic lights around his neck! Or just paint his nose as a clown? Fred immediately understood George's idea, and they could play a little trick on the idiot brother.

"Hah! That's a great idea! Maybe we can also paint him with a layer of gold paint? ”

......

"Look! Look! They've always been like this!! Ron puffed up at the departing twins!

"Alright! Ron! They gave you at least a pair of life-saving glasses for free! Isn't it? Hermione smiled, she felt that the two twin brothers still cared about their brother Ron!

After all, they gave him a life-saving glasses! Instead of that flashy, unreliable pronunciation box that looks good! Their behavior is just a joke about the brotherhood of the twins! After all, these two twins have always been this immodest look!

Anyway, Hermione thinks this kind of scene is very good, full of warmth between family members! It's just that this sluggish Ron didn't feel it! Hermione was the only daughter in the family, and she didn't have a chance to experience this unique friendship between siblings!

After packing up her textbooks, Hermione was ready to go back to the girls' dormitory to rest! Because the other day, when she went to visit Anne at her door, little Anne inadvertently taught her a way to use meditation to improve her magic power, as well as some basic applications of arcane spell models and magic architecture analysis!

So, she decided to go back early, lie down in bed, enter the sea of meditation, and continue to study and practice these interesting ways to use magic, which are rare knowledge that is not found in the Hogwarts school library, or even in the wizarding world in general!

"Good night! Harry! And you! Ron! See you tomorrow! With that, Hermione walked straight up through the entrance of the girls' dormitory.

"Harry! Let's go back to the dormitory and go to sleep! After a while, Ron saw that many people had left, and there were few people left in the common room.

"Are you done with your homework?" Harry knew that Ron would never have less homework than he had! He even wanted to go to bed so early?

Although Ron was on sick leave due to the mandrake, the professors at Hogwarts didn't accept sick leave! Want to take sick leave? OK! As long as the reason is right! However, after the break, you must fill in the missing homework in full! And now, because Fred and George have been selling goods for a long time, and they have been noisily delayed for a long time, Ron doesn't seem to have done much homework, right? Harry felt very strange at this time, what was he sleeping in if he hadn't finished his homework?

"Uh...... At least half of it hasn't been written! Looking at so much homework, Ron also scratched his head a little.

"Then why don't you hurry up and write! I've got eight pages of potion recipes to copy! Harry almost laughed! If you're lazy and don't want to write, forget it! And now you want to drag me into the water to pad your back? If you don't finish it tonight, Snape in Potions class tomorrow, how can that dark wizard spare himself?
