Friday, 10:30 p.m., in the Gryffindor common room.

Albert was sitting in an armchair by the fireplace, flipping through the manuscript of the Advanced Magical Translation that Professor Mowen had given him the other day.

Not far away, Angelina, who had finished her homework, was playing wizard cards with Alya, and Lee Jordan, who was always looking at the card game next to her, was doing astronomical homework under the guidance of Shanna.

"I won this game. Angelina smiled and packed up the wizard card, looked at Lee Jordan, who was still doing homework next to her, and asked with a puzzled face, "Why haven't you finished it yet?" ”

"Why don't you do your homework first and then spend the rest of your time playing?" Arya couldn't understand Lee Jordan's mindset at all.

Angelina covered a yawn and asked, "Shanna, do you want to go back to the dorm to rest?"

"You guys go back first, I'm still close. Shanna said as she looked at the button in front of her. She wanted to turn the button into a beetle, but it was far more difficult to turn a non-creature into a creature than it was to turn a creature into a non-creature.

"Then let's go back and rest first. Arya shoved the wizard card back into her pocket and took her friend's hand back to the dormitory.

"Failed again. Shanna sighed, looked up at Albert and asked, "Is there any way, or trick?"

"Practice a lot. Albert said without thinking.

"Alas, these words again. Shanna muttered, "What have you been looking at all this time?"

"Manuscript, Professor Babling asked me to help her revise the manuscript. When Albert finished marking, he stuffed the manuscript back into the bag.

"Professor Babling?" Shanna hadn't heard of the professor's name.

"Professor Mowen. Albert reminded.

"Ancient Magical Texts, I heard that there is this elective course in the third year, what are you going to choose?" asked Shanna suddenly.

"Electives?" asked Lee Jordan curiously, "what electives?"

"Divination, protection of magical creatures, Muggle studies, ancient magic writing, arithmetic divination. Albert quickly said five subjects, "I'm ready to take them all." ”

"Choose all, do you have enough time?" said Shanna, surprised.

"Enough, there's a way to give me plenty of time. Albert said with a smile.

"I've heard people say that ancient magic is very difficult to learn. Shanna was a little confused about whether or not to choose the ancient magic text.

"Ancient magic is like learning a foreign language. ”

"I remember you were good at foreign languages. Lee Jordan looked at Albert with envy on his face, "I remember that you can speak French and just went to France for a vacation during the summer vacation." ”

Shanna hesitated for a moment, then said, "If it's not particularly difficult, I'd like to take them all." ”

"What's easier?" asked Lee Jordan.

"Divination and Muggle studies. Albert said without thinking, "I heard that it was two out of five." ”

"Why?" asked Lee Jordan continued.

"Divination requires talent, and if you don't have talent, you just mess around, and it doesn't matter if you write your homework indiscriminately. Albert took a sip of the cold milk tea from his teacup, "As for Muggle studies, I feel that wizards don't understand Muggles, and they probably don't know what batteries, TVs, and light bulbs are?"

"Really?" said Shanna, surprised.

"Do you know what a light bulb is?" Albert asked Lee Jordan next to him.

"Of course I do. Lee Jordan couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "My family lives in the Muggle community, but some pure-blood wizards who are completely cut off from the Muggle world may not really know. ”

"It's hard to imagine. Shanna was surprised.

"It's not hard to imagine. "It's like my father didn't know how slugs turned into potions, and like Fred and George's father didn't know what rubber ducks were for." ”

"Eraser...... Duck?" Shanna bit her lip to keep herself from laughing.

"I remember Albert giving Fred and George a rubber duck during the summer vacation. Lee Jordan remembered the incident too.

"You're really ......" Shanna finally couldn't help but laugh, which immediately caused many people to look at each other suspiciously, "...... Definitely on purpose. ”

"By the way, what about Fred and George?" Albert looked at Shanna speechlessly, unable to understand what the other party's laughter was.

"You said Fred and George, those two bastards, they went to the kitchen. Lee Jordan thought for a moment and said, "I said I was hungry and wanted to go to the kitchen to find something to eat." ”

"Who are you scolding bastard!"

The voices of the two came from the entrance to the common room.

Lee Jordan looked in the direction of the sound and saw Fred and George walking in this direction, both holding a pie in their hands, eating as they walked.

"We've worked hard to get you something to eat...... "They came over and couldn't help but complain, "Hmph, it's not your share." ”

"Ahem, you heard me wrong. Lee Jordan coughed dryly and asked, "What's delicious?" ”

The few people next to him forced themselves not to laugh.

"You think we're deaf? Hmph, go away, the pie doesn't have your share. Fred laughed and pushed Lee Jordan away, while George, who was next to him, took out the oil-paper bag containing the pie from the pocket of his robe and handed it to Shanna.

"What pie?" asked Shanna, curiously as she took the paper bag.

"Steak kidneys pie. George said.

She took a piece and handed the oiled paper bag to Albert next to her.

Albert looked down at the steak kidneys pie in front of him, and honestly, he didn't have much of an appetite.

"Give it to Lee Jordan!" Albert handed Lee Jordan the oiled paper bag.

"Don't give that bastard. Both Fred and George couldn't help but complain.

"This is what Albert gave me. Lee Jordan took the oiled paper bag and snorted softly, "It's none of your business now. ”

"You guy. ”

"Aren't you going to eat?" asked Albert by changing the subject.

"No, no appetite. Albert shook his head.

"Why don't I share half of you?" said Shanna, smiling, "You shouldn't eat too much at night." ”

As she spoke, she actually split the steak kidneys pie in half and stuffed one half of it to Albert.

Albert was speechless for a moment.

Steak loin pie is a traditional British delicacy, probably!

This kind of thing is just ready, and it tastes okay when eaten hot, but when it is cold, the taste is not very good.

It's worse than a meat bun that's completely chilled.

Under the gaze of several people, Albert took a bite of the steak kidney pie, which tasted a little salty and the texture was a little subtle.

"It tastes pretty good. George asked with a smile.

"I prefer to eat it hot. Albert said.

In the midst of small talk, the common room was gradually empty, the cold wind rattled the windows, and the fire in the fireplace was about to go out.

"I'll be ready ...... later," Albert gestured to a few people who were playing wizard chess.

"What if you get caught?" Lee Jordan was a little worried, "Last time, William was caught on a night tour, and the angry Professor McGonagall made him brush the night pot for several days. I don't want to be nicknamed the Little Prince of the Night Pot. ”

"The little prince of the nightpot?"

"In the Muggle world, there is a prince named William. Albert forced a smile as he explained, "I remember he only brushed it once last year. ”

"More than once. Fred said with a smile.

"It's not important!" Lee Jordan looked helpless, he was really worried about being caught in the night tour.

"Rest assured, we won't get caught. Fred and George looked at each other, winked and said in unison, "You have to have faith in Albert." ”

"What are you going to do at night?" asked Lee Jordan in a whisper.

"Go to the forbidden section to find books, remember Snape's ability to read through other people's thoughts?" Albert whispered, "It's indeed a kind of magic called Regent Recitation, and I'm going to go to the Forbidden Book section of the library to find books that can counter this magic." ”

"When are you leaving?" asked Lee Jordan excitedly.

"Don't you want to go?" Fred couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"I want to learn this kind of magic too. Lee Jordan said excitedly, "What's more, if you are caught, everyone will be unlucky together, what are you afraid of." ”

"No one can catch us. George snorted, "Still, I don't think you'll be able to learn anything about the Divine Mind." ”

"How do you know if you don't give it a try. ”

"It's really hard to get a deception. Albert coldly poured cold water on Lee Jordan, causing Fred and George to laugh.
