Chapter 317: The Book of Bronze

After the holidays, the weather is getting clearer and warmer day by day. Finally, everyone couldn't resist the temptation to leave the heavy homework and leave the library to hang out on the lawn to relieve the pressure of studying.

Albert had just returned from Hagrid's hut, and there was no movement on the Forbidden Forest, and Hagrid told him three times how he had successfully captured the werewolf Yorman by an arrow in the knee.

Unfortunately, the Ministry of Magic was reluctant to pay the bounty for the hapless werewolf, citing the fact that the werewolf Jolman was not offered a bounty by the Ministry. Hagrid himself didn't mind, but Albert despised the Ministry of Magic's actions, and patted his ass and walked away.

When Albert returned to the hall, he saw Fred and George sitting there playing wizard cards, surrounded by a few spectators. After two rounds of elimination, the number of Witcher card lovers has increased.

Of course, it had to do with the twins using a new wizard card, and the crowd of onlookers wanted to borrow them to play a game.

Lee Jordan was flipping through today's Prophet newspaper and when he saw Albert coming, he put down the newspaper and greeted him.

"How?"

"People are still looking for Professor Smith all over the world. Lee Jordan couldn't help but sigh: "No one knows where he went. The bounty in the newspaper has increased again, and if you can help the Smith family find someone, or provide useful information, you will be paid 1,000 Galleons, I really want this money!"

"There is nothing missing in the dream. ”

Albert took the Daily Prophet from Lee Jordan, read the front page carefully, and couldn't help but shake his head, "Rita Skeeter actually thinks that this is a problem with Hogwarts, and that woman is also to blame Headmaster Dumbledore, is she going crazy to be famous?" ”

"Dad said the reporter liked to make up the news. Fred interjected suddenly.

"Originally, I thought I would find Professor Smith soon. George threw down the card and muttered, "As a result, there was not even a single message, and Professor Smith seemed to have disappeared out of thin air." ”

"What do you think?" Angelina took George's wizard deck and prepared to play a game with Shanna.

"Some people say that Professor Smith may have been killed or kidnapped, which is why he disappeared for some reason. Albert hesitated, "I think it's more likely." ”

"Hey, you don't have to curse Professor Smith like that!" Fred was speechless, Albert's broken mouth was really annoying.

Professor Smith isn't really dead, is he?

"I'm just telling you the most likely!" Albert shook his head, "A wizard as powerful as Professor Smith can't disappear without warning, and there's no reason to do so, the most likely thing is that he was kidnapped or dead, otherwise, what do you say he is hiding?"

Everyone around was silent, because Albert had a point, and the matter was still strange to this day. Why Professor Smith left Hogwarts in a hurry, and where he went, no one knows.

"I thought you had a good relationship with Professor Smith. ”

"It's a good relationship, and I've been paying attention to it. ”

"Where are you going?" asked Lee Jordan when he saw Albert put down the newspaper and was about to get up to leave.

"Go to Professor Broad and see if there's any news from him. Albert got up to make a trip to the Defence Against the Dark Arts office.

Of course, what I just said was just an excuse.

A few minutes later, Albert knocked on the wooden door of the Defence Against the Dark Arts office.

Professor Broad opened the door and motioned for Albert to go inside.

"You're here, more patient than I thought. What do you want to drink, milk tea?" Professor Broad motioned for Albert to sit down, the Defence Against the Dark Arts office had changed dramatically.

"Mr. Mogg said someone would explain it to us. Albert sat down across from Professor Broad, stirred the milk tea with a spoon, and looked at Professor Broad with his eyes.

"Yes. Not right here, though. Professor Broder shushed and pulled a bag of Galleons from his pocket and placed it in front of Albert.

"Your booty. ”

"That's a lot. ”

"The extra hundred Galleons were given to you by Gerber, and of course Izebel has a copy, and he's sorry for that. Professor Broad shoved Garon in front of Albert, "Take it!"

"You knew it in the first place?" Albert didn't refuse, putting the money bag in the shapeshifting lizard bag.

"I have a hunch!" Professor Broad said, "Mogg has been living in Hogsmeade for the time being. ”

"Mr. Morgg is late. Albert reminded.

"He just went over to determine if you were alive. Professor Broder said calmly, "You know, there's something called a time turner, and if necessary, Gerber will go back in time and go straight to the source of the problem, so you won't have an accident." ”

"It's rude. Albert raised an eyebrow and said, "I thought that even if you use a time turner, some things will be difficult to completely reverse, and they will drive people crazy." ”

"Of course you can't do it alone, but a group of people can. Professor Broder interrupted, "Well, we'd better not continue on this topic, I've brought you something that will certainly be of interest." ”

As he spoke, Professor Broad placed a wooden box on the table, containing a heavy, rusty metal book.

"The Bronze Book?" Albert asked curiously.

"Yes, this is the Bronze Book in the Ravenclaw Vault. Professor Broad nodded in acknowledgement.

"You want me to put it back?"

"Yes. ”

"Why don't you let Monsieur Mogg put it back?" said Albert, reaching over the lines of the book, "he must have this ability." ”

"Who knows?" Professor Broder clearly didn't want to say.

"Can I flip through it?" asked Albert again.

"Absolutely. Professor Broad said, "Mogg has already seen the use of ancient runevin magic, and you may be able to understand it." However, I recommend that you put it back into the distance and watch it slowly. ”

"It's so bulky. Albert's gaze fell on the wooden box.

"I know you still have a lot of doubts, but now is not a good time to say this, after the holidays, you come to stay with me for a few days, and I will tell you these things slowly. ”

"Can I give up? I'll give up the opportunity to Isobel. Albert said suddenly.

"Don't jump to conclusions, besides, you're still in the investigation phase. Professor Broad winked at Albert and said, "We'll have a way to get you to say yes, I promise." ”

"Wildsmith's legacy?"

"You'll find out then, and you'll be surprised. Professor Broad smiled meaningfully, "I was taken aback by that, too. ”

"You think I'll be qualified?" Albert couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Professor Broad just smiled, not ready to answer Albert's question.
