Chapter 12 The arrival of the golden finger
"It's a beautiful meadow, and it couldn't be better for a picnic."
The professors, who were eating in the teacher's seat, suddenly heard a voice coming from the painting behind them. They all looked back.
"Fat lady?" McGonagall said the visitor's name.
Then she noticed that the number of people in the portrait gradually increased. They seem to come from all over Hogwarts. McGonagall even met her Transfiguration teacher.
Dumbledore stood up and explained, "At the suggestion of our Mr. Ream, I have decided to start a feast for our entire Hogwarts today. Portraits and ghosts, professors, staff, and of course the only student we have here. Have fun, everyone. With that, he sat down.
Then there was a strange scene in the hall.
The professors were eating dinner in their seats, and the ghosts were "eating" the smell of incense. Nick, who is almost headless, has a soft spot for coffee, while Peeves insists that strawberry is the right thing to do......
The entire Hogwarts painting is gathered here, toasting and dancing to each other as they did when they were alive. It looks a lot busier than outside.
Dumbledore drank a lot of mead, and his face was red.
The people in the painting suddenly became noisy, because they suddenly felt that there was something monotonous in the painting.
At this time, Dumbledore, who seemed to be drunk, waved his wand directly, and then Li Yi saw a burst of white light flash, and the painting, which originally occupied only half of the entire wall, instantly skyrocketed to the entire wall.
"It's much more lenient now."
The people in the portrait said that Dumbledore was satisfied with the move.
Li Yi looked at the party in the portrait, and suddenly felt a little strange, he didn't see the figures of the four founders in it, they didn't even leave a portrait.
Looking at the lively hall, everyone's faces were happy, they originally thought it was not so lively.
Tomorrow is the day when the students will come back, and when they will start the heavy new semester, the bear children will have exhausted their energy a lot.
Li Yi found Mrs. Pins, who was chatting with several ladies in the portrait, and when she saw Li Yi coming, she praised:
"Sige, your attention is awesome, this party is one of the best I've ever seen."
"Thank you for the compliment, Mrs. Pince. I came to you for something. ”
"What's wrong?" Pins saw that Li Yi was a little worried.
"That's right, ma'am. I'm an orphan......"
"I'm sorry......" Pince covered his mouth, apologizing.
"So I asked Headmaster Dumbledore to help you manage the school's library as a way to earn some pocket money, and I hope you won't mind."
Pins looked at Li Yi and said with a smile: "Of course I don't mind, I just need a helper?" ”
I have to say that doing things at a young age is really a bonus.
In this way, Li Yi got the position of librarian at Hogwarts.
Soon, the feast was about to end, and the ghosts had left, and Li Yi saw the fat monk of Hufflepuff swallow a large cloud of apple-flavored incense in his stomach, and then staggered away contentedly, he was the last ghost to leave.
The people on the painting also began to disperse, and only the original lawn and some food waste were left on the painting.
Professor McGonagall used his transfiguration skills to transform the painting into a bird, which then flew into a storage room at Hogwarts and eventually changed back again. However, by this time, only the original lawn was left in the painting.
Li Yi returned to his hut, he didn't have a branch now, so he lived directly in a specially vacated room.
Still, he occasionally went to the Room of Requirement to take a proper rest.
……
The next day, the old students began to return to school one after another.
Li Yi looked at these and suddenly remembered his admission experience in elementary school, junior high school, high school and university. I have to say that after a period of time, looking back on the past, I can always get a little different feeling.
Now he can only identify students who seem to be obvious by a few characteristics, such as Zhang Qiu, a Chinese American in Ravenclawry, and the Weasley twins of Gryffindor, whose characteristics are obvious.
As for the others, although he also had an impression of their stories, it was still a bit troublesome to correspond to them one by one now.
In fact, Li Yi was not ready to have any contact with the main plot of this, and he was obviously more interested in the starry sky that he always dreamed of than the battle between those magics.
He searched for books in the library for a long time, but neither "The Study of the Stars" nor "Dreams and Prophecies" could answer his question.
He had to continue reading some other books to pass the time, but fortunately his memory was much better now than before, and he could still remember the things recorded in these books.
As for whether he got some knowledge from it or something, that's another matter.
Li Yi's job in the library was basically to help Mrs. Pince sort out the books, but these books had been magically cast, so he was very relaxed now. The books will automatically fly to where they are supposed to be at night.
That night, Li Yi was practicing an interesting magic that he had seen in the library's spell book alone in his room.
It was a somewhat random magic, unlike anything he'd ever seen such as cleaning up and restoring to its original state. It's more of a form of magic that creates random effects.
Its specific role is to merge different things to create something new.
Since discovering this spell, Li Yi has been very interested in turning some unnecessary things around him into experimental supplies.
An uneaten piece of cake and an apple core turned out to produce a bottle of apple-flavored potion, a quill and a piece of paper to form a clothed feathered man......
This kind of experiment made him a little happy.
Li Yi didn't know what language the original pronunciation of this spell came from, but he still learned the name of this magic through the introduction of that book, random fusion.
It's not a tall name, but it's basically the same as the effect, and it's not very bad.
There was a knock at the door.
Li Yi opened the door and saw Professor McGonagall standing outside the door.
"Professor, what's the matter?"
"That's right, Sig. Tomorrow is the start of school for new students. There will be a division at that time. You're probably going to live in your own college...... So you're going to pack your things tomorrow, and the house-elves will send them to your academy. ”
