Chapter 20: Clues
As time passed, the lessons became familiar, and Godot finally arrived at Hogwarts under Li Lin's expectations.
The first thing is to move out of the box full of books, and even the shelves are already arranged. Then he received the letter from the vampires from Godot.
The Nofele clan said it had moved all its people to Hungary.
And it was very stable, and their elders personally embraced a middle-aged rich man in Hungary for the first time, and immediately formed effective control. The vampires don't dare to show their faces in the Hungarian wizarding world now, after all, no matter how much they underestimate the Hungarian Ministry of Magic, but the entire Hungarian wizarding community has a population of nearly 10,000 people. And the total number of personnel of all departments of the Hungarian Ministry of Magic is a hundred.
The ratio to the entire vampire family can be reached, one hundred to one, and if it is compared to the wizard vampire, the ratio is even larger. Coupled with the fact that there is also a famous Dumbledore, the vampires do not dare to be presumptuous at all.
Many of the plans had to wait for Dumbledore's attention to divert his gaze.
In fact, the vampires have given up their wands. Although the number of personnel and the level of waste of the Hungarian Ministry of Magic could not detect them using wands, or spells, the vampires still did not have the courage to do so.
They would rather use the power inherited from their own bloodlines, but the days of being from the heart are too long.
Li Lin didn't help to change the status quo, and the vampires integrated into the Muggle world first, which was more beneficial to his plans. As for diverting Dumbledore's attention, it's too early, after all, Hogwarts has just been in school for more than a week, and if there is a big incident, it will be troublesome.
The bedroom was finally furnished, the vampires were silent, Professor Snape's potions were still costing the materials, and Professor Quirrell and the one in the back of his head were as happy as they pleased. The early plan of the first year at Hogwarts was to start from the heart, and Li Lin had no other energy to plan something else.
After all, he hasn't been exposed to homework for more than ten years, even if the automatic writing pen helps him solve part of it, the rest needs to use his brain and hands. The most important thing is to update those novels that he serialized in "Singing Contrarians".
I knew that I shouldn't have coveted manuscript fees and picked those huge works that cost millions of words at every turn. Choose a few 10,000-word long stories, won't you finish the book early?
Writing fiction in the common room has become customary, and the curriculum of various disciplines has also become a pattern. In Potions class, there was no more Professor Snape's cross-eyebrow, in fact, Snape tried not to go to the position he was in, which benefited Hermione, who was sitting next to him, and no longer had to face Professor Snape's cold gaze and affect his performance.
But Hermione was also dissatisfied, because several times the potion she had brewed was not noticed by Professor Snape, so it was not a plus.
But Li Lin was quite satisfied with this kind of Potions class, and he also knew the reason for Professor Snape's attitude, after all, Li Lin had become a supplier, or a funder.
Snape's talent for potions allows him to change the steps of potions, making them simpler and potions more standard. This is still the performance of his student days.
With such a great talent, at Hogwarts, he is only taught in Potions class. Moreover, in terms of the teacher's salary, it is not enough to study potions, and the price of those valuable materials, as long as he thinks about it, Li Lin's teeth ache faintly.
Now with Li Lin's support, Professor Snape can finally show his strengths, and Snape is mysterious and confident in potions, he believes that potions can resist death, which also means that if the potions Li Lin needs are successfully developed, then Professor Snape will gain great fame and wealth. It is likely that he will use this wealth to reinvest in potion research, creating something like a resurrection potion that has never existed before. Use your own means to resurrect the person in his heart.
Of course, at present, it is only Li Lin's conjecture. Anyway, no matter what Professor Snape planned, it was the premise of everything to research out the potions that Li Lin needed first.
The magic class still hasn't reached the point of using magic spells, and he still practices posture and flicks his wand, which Li Lin does is not much different from other little wizards. Well, to be exact, it's significantly better than Hufflepuff horizontally.
The history of magic class entered the daily listening to novels, and unexpectedly, Li Lin in this state found that he had a relatively clear memory of the passages that Professor Binns had said.
However, Professor Binns never asked questions, and in fact, Li Lin suspected that he had not paid attention to the group of students in front of him. It is precisely because of this that Li Lin has never shown himself, and he is almost to the point of memorizing the history of magic.
Naturally, this kind of thing can't be told to Hermione, which is likely to stimulate Hermione, who really memorizes the history of magic overnight, and she attaches great importance to all the lessons.
The Transfiguration class, as the only one that required the release of magic so far, was also the last thing Li Lin was willing to face. No matter how much Li Lin wielded his wand, he couldn't make the matches deform, and this situation had been noticed by Professor McGonagall, and the homework she left for Li Lin had changed from one page to two, and now to three. But the effect is to make Li Lin. There is a need for more automatic writing pens, and progress in the Transfiguration class is still zero
Hermione was naturally very concerned about this situation, and she also began after-school tutoring for Li Lin. After spending a long time, he had to be convinced that Li Lin lacked talent for Transfiguration.
Professor McGregor also stopped adding more homework to Li Lin, so the after-class homework for Transfiguration remained at five pages.
Flying lessons were still an awkward free-fall exercise, and Mrs. Hodge first suspected that there was something wrong with the school's old broomsticks, but after checking and replacing them several times, she found out that it was Li Lin's problem.
This situation once alarmed the school doctor, Madam Poopy Pomfrey, because this situation was too strange, Li Lin could use other magic tools, such as automatic writing pens, shrinking boxes, and other things, and the flying broomstick, theoretically the same as them, was an alchemy item, but Li Lin really couldn't achieve the flying effect after riding it.
So the problem is with Li Lin. Madam Pomfrey examined it carefully, and finally came to the conclusion that Li Lin's body was even healthier than that of young wizards of the same age.
So when the school doctor couldn't find out the problem, Li Lin's flying class existed in name only, everyone practiced flying on a broomstick, and Li Lin could only sit on the grass and read a book. Fly into the sky, soar freely in the sky, embrace the blue sky and look down on the earth. It can be said that everyone has this fantasy, and Li Lin still regrets that he can't fly with a broomstick.
So he decided to start saving money after Professor Snape finished the potion, and then went to India to order a magic carpet, or to the United States to order a flying skateboard.
But the fact that he couldn't use the broomstick still spread in the school, after all, most of the people in the school were minors and were extremely curious, especially those in Gryffindor, Li Lin had often received the attention of students from other houses when he walked on the road recently. Because the classes are separated, it is rare to meet Gryffindors and Slytherin students, and after a few encounters, Gryffindors are at most whispering and pointing fingers, while Slytherins, most people will not be bored and will just leave with a blank face. And there are always people who are bored to the end.
Draco Malfoy, for example, and his two tall henchmen, Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle, usually follow him.
In the face of Malfoy's ridicule, Li Lin really wanted to breathe in the cold ice and freeze the three of them here for a good exhibition, but unfortunately, he couldn't.
In response to this malicious slander, Liling chose to back down, and Hermione's reaction was to find Dean Ravenclaw, Professor Flitwick. It is worth mentioning that she also tried to find Professor Snape, which undoubtedly failed.
Professor Snape rarely showed up in the office after getting a lot of material, and if he hadn't been able to see him in class, Li Lin would have suspected that Professor Snape had absconded with the money. In fact, even Li Lin, an investor, found it difficult to meet Snape, let alone Hermione.
So, Hermione's method didn't work at all. However, Li Linzhi didn't care, because since the beginning of school, he has met Malfoy three times in total.
This is thanks to Hogwarts' curriculum and the messy route.
Another day, when Li Lin and Hermione were sitting in the dining room for breakfast. A hundred or so owls suddenly flew into the restaurant. There is no doubt that the mail arrived. This is what Li Lin is most dissatisfied with Hogwarts, think about it, when you eat, hundreds of birds fly over your head, even if the service of the house-elves is very good, not a single bird feather will fall on the food, but they will throw things down. These owls flew around the dining table until they found their respective owners, dropping letters or packages at them.
And it will also land on its own initiative, as it is now.
An owl fluttered its wings and landed between the milk and the sugar pot, and put a few letters on Li Lin's plate.
Faced with such a situation, except for the bread in his hand, Li Lin decided not to eat anything on the table.
The owl belonged to Lovegood Garrysosyan, and it is clear that the letters he was carrying were also domestic.
Li Lin put away the letter, picked out the fruit from the table, and handed it to the owl's beak. Then he waved away the owl. I apologized to the people around me, and after receiving understanding, I continued to nibble on bread.
