On the first day of school at Hogwarts, there was a Saturday and Sunday, which was a real delight for most students.

In the morning, Albert opened his eyes and got out of bed, and it was still raining outside the window. He covered a yawn and looked up at his roommates, who were still lying on the bed and not wanting to get up.

Every time it rains, I don't want to get up.

Albert changed into his clothes and prepared to go to the auditorium for dinner. Before leaving, he took out two brick-thick books from his suitcase.

These two books were borrowed from the library by Albert before the summer vacation, and naturally need to be returned after the start of the school year. By the way, Albert has now read 17 of the 100 books.

As he passed through the common room, Albert was surprised to see what he saw.

The armchairs in the common room were already occupied, and many Gryffindor students were actually ...... I'm actually trying to do my homework.

Is this the sun going to rise in the west?

No, it's still raining outside.

"Good morning. Shanna descended another staircase and greeted Albert, who was also standing at the top of the staircase. Looking at the people in the common room, he asked in surprise, "What are you doing...... Summer homework?"

"Well, rush to copy your summer homework. Albert answered, and walked towards the entrance to the common room.

Shanna glanced at the students in the common room and left after Albert.

Along the way, both of them were talking about the Copying Charm.

"Items that have been copied using a copy charm usually have no added value. After giving directions to the lost freshmen, Albert said to Shanna, "If you use a copy charm to make a copy of a silver spoon, the copy itself will only serve as a spoon and will not have the effect of precious silver." ”

Shanna nodded in understanding.

Before arriving at the Great Hall, they meet Charlie and Wood in the foyer, where they are discussing Quidditch selection.

It is known that Wood will be the successor to the next Gryffindor Quidditch captain.

No way, when Charlie graduates, Wood will be the oldest on the team and will spend the longest time in the team.

Albert greeted the two of them and prepared to dine in the auditorium.

"Albert. Charlie suddenly stopped Albert.

"What's the matter. Albert's heart fluttered, and he asked back.

"Quidditch tryouts next Wednesday, don't be late. Charlie reminded.

"Wednesday? I'm not quite sure when Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration Club will start. Albert hesitated for a moment, then said, "Why, you can give me a place as a backup." ”

"Don't make excuses. Charlie narrowed his eyes and said, "Order the broomstick early, your position is the Seeker." ”

Albert was stunned for a moment and asked suspiciously, "What about you?"

"I can be a chaser. Charlie's tone was flat, "So, don't excuse yourself, I'll allow you not to come to Quidditch once in a while." ”

"That's not good. Albert tugged at the corners of his mouth.

"There's nothing wrong with that, the Seeker doesn't need to cooperate with anyone else, you just need to catch the Snitch for us. Charlie waved his hand impatiently and motioned for Albert to go.

When Albert and Shanna entered the auditorium, Wood looked at Charlie and asked, "Is this really good?"

"It's not like you don't know the Quidditch level of those Gryffindors. Charlie pursed his lips disdainfully and said, "Besides, it's not that I didn't give them a chance, I can't do it myself, who can blame me." ”

After saying that, Charlie patted Wood on the shoulder again and continued: "You must know that chasers and batsmen are easier to find, but Seekers are not easy to find, so I have to leave you a great Seeker, otherwise when you take over the Gryffindor team next year, you will be unlucky if you don't have a qualified Seeker, and you will definitely lose a mess." ”

"Albert is totally qualified as a Seeker, and you've seen his last game. ”

"I'm just worried about ......" Wood hesitated, still not speaking.

"What's there to worry about, George and Fred are good friends with Albert, Angelina has a good relationship with Albert, and everyone else knows him, even if he doesn't come once in a while. Charlie reminded meaningfully, "The Seeker's mission is to find the Golden Snitch. ”

Albert didn't know about Charlie's dealings with Wood, and he didn't know that the original Quidditch players were actually predetermined.

He's teaching Shanna how to use the Copy Charm.

It's basically impossible to succeed on the first attempt. So, Shanna, who practiced with a spoon, failed as expected.

As the two of them chatted about the dos and don'ts of the Replication Charm, Albert was caught by a white owl.

In this rainstorm, Sheila still delivered the letter as scheduled.

"Good work!" Albert pulled an owl nut from his pocket and put it in front of Shera.

"What's in the letter?" asked Shanna, curious. When the letter landed on the table, a crisp metallic sound sounded.

"A piece of gold. Albert said without thinking. He didn't plan to open the letter in the auditorium, but stuffed the envelope back into his pocket.

As for what to do with the gold card, Albert had already thought about it and was going to hide it in the Room of Need.

Well, right next to the Ravenclaw crown.

The next time, when Albert handed over the crown to Dumbledore, there would be an excuse to prevaricate Dumbledore: I hid the gold card nearby, which was the thing I found at that time.

"A piece of gold?" Shanna repeated, looking at Albert suspiciously. When this guy speaks, it is true and false, so that people can't tell whether what he says is true or false.

"I'll be kidding, but it's actually a metal membership card. Albert said jokingly, without giving Shanna time to continue asking questions.

After breakfast, Albert said hello to Shanna and got up to leave. As for Shela, after eating the nuts, she had already flown back to the owl shed to catch up on her sleep.

"Gold, membership cards, what's all that weird stuff?" said Shanna, looking at Albert's departing back, and shook her head.

It's really hard for the average person to associate gold with a membership card.

Well, it's hard to tie the two together if you're not actually meeting them.

Albert hurried to the eighth floor, slipped into the Room of Request when no one was around, and placed the envelope containing the gold card near Ravenclaw's crown.

Albert wasn't sure if Hertock would get his gold card back in other ways, and maybe he would ask Dumbledore for help.

Leaving the gold card on your body is easy for the other party to take back, and hiding it is the best option.

As for the other party, will the other party go to reissue a membership card?

Of course, you can, but the replacement will not be a gold card, let alone the effect of a gold card.

There is no way, the gold card is unique, and the Extraordinary Pharmacists Association will not reissue it. After all, I've never heard someone say that after someone loses a trophy or medal, the organizer has to make up another one for you.

Unless Hertock gives up on his own, he will have to solve the trouble he caused if he wants to get his gold card back.

It is unlikely that Hertock will give up his gold card.

Albert thought about it as he walked, and when he came back to his senses, he was already standing in front of the portrait of the fat lady.

By the time he answered the password, walked through the passageway, and returned to the dormitory, Lee Jordan had already gotten up and was checking his summer homework.

He had just arrived in the common room and was taken aback by what he saw.

"How?" Albert asked, sitting on the edge of the bed.

"Didn't miss holiday homework. Lee Jordan made an OK gesture and asked, "When are we going to start making wizard cards?"

"The plan was to make cards for Hogwarts students and professors first. Albert pulled out his notes, flipped through a few pages, and said, "Collectively known as Hogwarts decks." ”

"I thought you'd be grouped by academy. ”

"Initially, of course, it will be separated, which is more conducive to promotion. Albert took out a piece of parchment, briefly drew a rough diagram of the card's structure, and continued, "However, these cards will all belong to the Hogwarts deck, and we need to divide the factions, and each faction needs to have its own way of playing, so as to make the game more interesting. ”

"Makes sense. Fred said.

"Not sleeping?"

"Nope. Fred covered a yawn and began to get up and get dressed.

"What is this for?" asked George, pointing to a large empty space on the parchment.

"Put the portrait. Albert picked up his wand, cut out the pictures on the parchment, and after using the Copy Charm to make several copies, he picked up a quill and began to make cards: Fred Weasley. Attack 1, HP 1. Costs 1 Action Point. Effect, when there is no George in the field, George can be immediately summoned from the card, and when the Weasley twins are on the field at the same time, both sides will gain +1 ATK. ”

"We only have 1 attack?" Fred and George protested.

"I think your card works well. Lee Jordan pointed to his cards.

"Lee Jordan. Attack 1, HP 1. Costs 1 Action Point. effect, as one of the four founders of the Witcher card, can draw a card for free. ”

"Where's your card?" the three looked curiously at Albert.

"My card. Albert picked up a blank piece of parchment and filled it in.

"Albert Anderson. Attack 3, HP 2. Costs 2 Action Points. Effect, when this card is played, it will get an Iron Armor Charm and a Disarming Charm from the deck. ”

"Why do your cards work better than ours?" all three protested.

"Because I'm better than you, and I do use both spells. Albert reassured, "These cards are not fixed. In the future, we can apply a change charm to the card to solve the card update problem. ”

"Hurry up, I can't wait to play a game. Lee Jordan urged.

"Add Charlie and Percy as well. Oh, and don't forget the Gryffindor Quidditch players. Fred continued, "And the professors from the school were also included. ”

"By the way, how many cards do you need to make a deck?" asked George.

"Thirty for now. Albert thought for a moment and replied, "You can't have more than three duplicate cards in your deck. ”
