Professor McGonagall was Dumbledore's right-hand man and the most fair and impartial mentor in the entire Hogwarts school. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Both in public and private, Dumbledore would have respected Professor McGonagall's advice. What's more, she is still so serious and serious now.

"Not a wizard, but more magical than a wizard? Tell me about it, I'm a little curious, too. ”

"The other day, when I went to the house of Hermione Granger, a freshman who is about to enter today, for a routine observation, I found that she was being instructed at the neighbor's house next door, ......."

Sure enough, he was a fanatic of strange candy, and while Professor McGonagall was speaking, Dumbledore threw a candy in his mouth.

"Wait a minute. Guide? Are you referring to magical instruction? Dumbledore's voice sounded muffled because of the candy in his mouth.

"It's not. I'm not sure if it's magic or not. ”

Dumbledore frowned, not because of McGonagall's words, but because of the smell of candy. He chose a candy that tasted like mint frog.

"Well, that's terrible. Uh, you go on, I mean the candy tastes terrible. ”

“……。” Knowing that Dumbledore was sometimes not so reliable, Professor McGonagall only paused slightly, and then continued to describe the scene she saw at the time: "......, judging from the effect at that time, some of the actions performed by Hermione and her guide must have exceeded the scope of ordinary people, but neither Hermione nor that person had any magical fluctuations. That's what surprised me the most. ”

"Well, it's not certain if 'that person' is a wizard or not, but if he is a very powerful wizard and no magic fluctuations leak out when casting spells, it is also said in the past. However, a freshman who hasn't yet entered the school can do that, well, well, I don't think that's magic. ”

"That's right. I think the same as you. Seeing that Dumbledore had the same attitude, Professor McGonagall's expression relaxed: "So, Dumbledore, what do you think of my suggestion, should you make contact with that person?" ”

"Since others can learn the same ability through mentoring, it is clear that it is not the special ability brought by the bloodline itself. It's not magic, well, it's magical. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Dumbledore quickly agreed to Professor McGonagall's suggestion and decided to find an opportunity to get in touch with Chu Xiaobai. Of course, Professor McGonagall was very trustworthy that the person she recommended was not a bad guy with ulterior motives, which was one of the reasons that prompted Dumbledore to make this decision.

A few days passed in a flash.

On this day, when he had just sent Hermione, who had been in his house all day, back to his home again, and was about to go to the kitchen to get himself a cup of juice to moisten his throat, Chu Xiaobai suddenly heard a muffled sound in the living room.

The kitchen and living room are connected, and when he looked up, Chu Xiaobai, who was standing behind the cooking table, saw the two old men coming out of the fireplace at a glance.

One was a woman, who looked to be about fifty or sixty years old, and the other seemed to be much older, with a full head of white hair and a long white beard.

"Dumbledore?" recognized the identities of these two people at a glance, but in order to make less of a word, Chu Xiaobai still pretended to have a thinking expression first, and then asked the white-bearded old man 'half-convinced'.

"Well, it looks like you know me. Hello, I'm Dumbledore. By the way, this one is Professor McGonagall, the Deputy Headmaster of Hogwarts. ”

"Hello, I'm Chu Xiaobai, you can call me Chu or Xiaobai, it's a pleasure to meet you. No, I mean, I really didn't expect to meet you. I'm sorry, my mind is a bit messy, I've only heard about you, and I've wanted to meet real wizards for a long time, especially you ...... Dumbledore. ”

I didn't know that Chu Xiaobai was pretending on purpose, but I just saw that he was a little helpless. Turning his head to look at Professor McGonagall, Dumbledore's lack of vigilance was completely down.

"If you don't mind, can you give us a glass of juice too?" It always feels so bad every time I use Floo Powder, I think I need a little drink to bring that feeling down. ”

"Absolutely. This is the cherry juice I squeezed this morning, and I'm sure you'll love it. Quickly took out two more glasses and gave Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore a glass of juice each. Brought it to them, Chu Xiaobai suddenly moved in his heart: "By the way, do you need to add ingredients?" I also have a special nutrient solution here, but I don't know if it's suitable for wizards' physique. ”

The 'nutrient solution' that Chu Xiaobai mentioned is naturally the liquid produced in the space. Previously, he had only used those liquids on plants, and named them 'nutrient solution' because of their reaction to absorbing the liquid, but after coming to the Harry Potter plane, he quietly experimented with some small animals, and through the observation of these small animals, he came to a new conclusion - the effect of nutrient solution is not limited to plants, it is also effective on animals - this thing can increase the spirituality and intelligence of animals to a certain extent.

Since animals can drink, humans who are also physiologically classified as animals should have no problem. So, after going through animal experiments, Chu Xiaobai took himself and Hermione as experimental subjects, and finally came to the conclusion that - it seems that he has really become a little smarter?

After discovering the magical effect of the nutrient solution, Chu Xiaobai has been looking for an opportunity for wizards to try it too, perhaps, this thing will be regarded by them as a new potion and become a highly sought-after item in the wizarding world?

Now, Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore took the initiative to come to the door, and they were so kind, from Chu Xiaobai's point of view, wasn't this a ready-made test subject?

"Nutrient solution? What is that? Give me a little bit, hehe, and I'll tell you the truth, I'm always curious about new things. ”

Dumbledore was old and refined, and he could see at a glance that Chu Xiaobai was deliberate, but because he didn't feel the slightest malice in him, he still chose to try. Of course, just in case, he still took some precautions and didn't let Chu Xiaobai also add ingredients to Professor McGonagall.

"You're going to love it, I promise." It doesn't make a difference between one person and two people, as long as someone is willing to drink it. Nodding with a smile, Chu Xiaobai returned to the refrigerator again, and while blocking the sight of the two with his body, he took out some liquid from the space without moving and quietly poured it into a cup in the refrigerator that had been iced in advance. (If you add ice cubes, it will change the concentration of the wine, and some people who are more particular will ice the glass in advance and use the low temperature of the glass itself instead of ice cubes to cool the wine)

"Yes, I just put it in the fridge ten minutes ago, and it's not iced yet." Because the liquid in the cup was not frozen, and the temperature was far less cold than the cup itself, Chu Xiaobai explained more: "However, the effect is the same." ”

"Pour it directly into the juice?"

"Well, let's do less. This is the original liquid, and the concentration is already very large, and secondly, I still don't know if it is suitable for your wizard's physique, right? ”

According to Chu Xiaobai's reminder, Dumbledore only added about the amount of a mineral water bottle cap to his juice.

Stirring lightly with the spoon that Chu Xiaobai specially brought a few times, and when the liquid was mixed evenly in the cup, Dumbledore took a small sip of juice from the cup: "Hmm, it tastes really good, it's very fresh, it feels like seeing a cherry tree full of fruits." Hmm, huh?? This is....... ”

"Dumbledore?" Seeing that Dumbledore's expression suddenly became serious, as if she had taken some terrible potion, Professor McGonagall's face unconsciously showed a worried expression, and at the same time, there was also a trace of vigilance and vigilance in her eyes when she looked at Chu Xiaobai.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm fine~." Professor McGonagall shouted at him, and Dumbledore came to his senses.

Putting away his previous casualness, Dumbledore stared at Chu Xiaobai with a little seriousness for a few seconds, and just when Chu Xiaobai also began to be a little nervous, he suddenly relaxed his face and changed to a kind expression with a hint of respect: "Chu, is this what you researched?" I have to say, it's a really good potion, especially for us wizards. ”

"Really? Can you tell us what's good? I just know that the average person will become a little smarter after taking it, and the effect on wizards will be the same? ”

"Pretty much." Dumbledore poured himself another sip and felt it for a moment, before nodding affirmatively, "Yes, although it doesn't feel very obvious, I can be sure that this potion can stabilize our magic and make it easier for us to cast spells." ”

"As for whether it will become smarter, I can't tell now, after all, I'm an old man, and my brain is not so good." As a self-deprecating joke, Dumbledore took the initiative to pick up the cup and add some nutrient solution to Professor McGonagall's juice: "McGonagall, you're smarter than me, come, you can try it too." ”

"The magic is indeed more stable, and the mind seems to be clearer." Perhaps it was because the effect of the nutrient solution was so good that Professor McGonagall was a little excited, and she even joked, "Well, I'm only seventy years old, and I'm still very young." ”

"Professor McGonagall, are you seventy years old? How do I think you're about fifty years old at most. ”

It sounds like a deliberate flattery, but it's really a big truth from the heart. Seeing that Chu Xiaobai was sincere, Professor McGonagall's smile increased a few points.

"What about me?"

"You?" 'Seriously' stared at Dumbledore who wanted to have fun for a while, Chu Xiaobai shrugged: "I'm really sorry, because of the color of my beard and hair, I really don't dare to say the number below a hundred." ”
