This time it wasn't a taxi, Mr. Diggory bought a family car and got his driver's license. When Cedric and Field got into the car with some surprise, Mr. Diggory started the car, and the car automatically began to move in the direction of 33 Oak Street, apparently Mr. Diggory cast a spell on the car. Back home, it was still the old Riley and Cheese packing their bags.
At dinner, Mr. Diggory announced that he had been promoted. "Old Semon has retired, and after Christmas I will be the new Director of the Department of Magical Beasts Management and Control at the Ministry of Magic. "The family is happy for Mr. Diggory
The next day, while Mr. Diggory was setting up the hall, Field sent a letter to his maternal grandfather. He asked Grandpa Kevin to buy him two LCD TVs from Japan, which had just started to appear in Japan in 1991. At the same time, find him a few professional books on radio and network technology.
The day before Christmas, he received a number of presents, most importantly, a letter from Mrs. Nice, who said that she might not be able to return to France during the summer holidays. She sent a gift to Field. Field directly gave the owl who delivered the letter a good meal, and then took away the information about the "Rune Language" that he had compiled a long time ago.
Mrs. Nice's gift is a versatile crafting tool, like a Swiss Army knife, that combines many of the tools used in the creation and transformation of magical items, making it easy to use.
Other people gave them snacks or books.
Cedric is also unpacking gifts, and he has significantly more letters than Field, who discovers that many girls have sent him love letters. Field secretly read two of them, and they were really fleshy. He found that children born in wizarding families generally wrote mediocre writing, and these love letters almost bluntly said, "Cedric, I want to give you monkeys".
On the occasion of Christmas, Field borrowed Mr. Diggory's treasure "Soul Binding Gourd", studied it carefully, and finally determined that he could not do it, unless he went to China to systematically learn how to make magic weapons in China. Master Yang Xiao said that China's magic weapons are made with something called "forbidden".
As a cosmopolitan city, Christmas is also the busiest time for London. Fildra took Cedric to a Muggle mall where he couldn't buy anything, and then they went to the amusement park to play the electric game, and Cedric's handsome appearance attracted many Muggle girls to talk to him. Two boys who hadn't been in the Muggle world for a long time had a great time.
On the way back, Cedric sighed: "The Muggle world has become so fast, a lot of things from last year have been eliminated this year." ”
The holidays were short, and soon they were going back to school, and Field ran into Rolf at the station, and naturally the two of them found an empty car at the back of the car and began to discuss writing letters to Dumbledore and the Minister of Magic.
"I told my grandfather about our idea at Christmas, and he actually expressed his support, and he said that when we finished writing, he would send it to him first, and he would sign it for us. Rolf was excited, and hurriedly began to pull Field to discuss the details of writing the letter.
Field, however, was in no hurry, and took out two red quills from his bag.
"Here, one for each person, made of the red swan feathers you gave me, once it succeeds, I think I'm a genius" Field was a little snorted.
During the Christmas holidays, Field made a number of things with the multi-tool given by Grandma Nice, including these two magic pens. It's a lot more advanced than Field's original, it writes faster, and it automatically polishes the language.
Rolf accepted it unceremoniously and began to use it to record their thoughts. The two men discussed all the way to the school train platform.
On the way back to the Hufflepuff common room, Mr. Filch, the caretaker, called out to Field: "Mr. Diggory, please wait a moment, I have something for you." ”
Filch gives you a big pocket, "This is a Christmas present for you." ”
Rolf looked at Field in surprise, he didn't understand what was happening.
Field told Rolf that he had given Filch a small gift before Christmas. Those were two gadgets he made when he started making magical items when he was seven years old. A wand that only emits "fluorescent flickering" and a glove that can only release "clean up", with the advantage of being able to use it as long as you have a little bit of magic in your body. Field knew that Mr. Filch was a Squib, but the Squib also had magic in its body, but it couldn't be used.
In the prefect's lounge that evening, Field and Rolf carefully sorted through the things that Filch had sent and found a lot of good things, which he and his predecessor had collected from the students over the years.
Suddenly, there is a map of living spots. It's a huge, worn-out piece of parchment
Field opened the worn-out parchment map and said to it, "I solemnly swear that I have no bad intentions. ”
Then, in Rolf's surprised expression, two ink lines on the edge of the originally blank map began to slowly stretch, and a map appeared on the parchment, which Field knew was the map of Hogwarts (including the secret passage). The map shows the location of everyone in Hogwarts and indicates how to open the secret passages.
He saw Cedric and Penelope and Crevat's names appear in an empty classroom. And Peter Pedirul's name appears in the Gryffindor common room.
"It's amazing, you know it's used like that. Field. Rolf asked, looking at him incredulously
"Remember the book I read before Christmas? The one "Tracking", I always wanted to make a map like this. Field didn't answer his question head-on.
Rolf's mind was not on this question, and he carefully looked at the magical map. He asked, "Can you make it?"
"Originally, it was definitely not going to work, but now that the sample is available, I think it's only a matter of time before it can be replicated. "Field is confident. "The prank is over. ”
The two agreed that it would be a secret for the two of them until they succeeded in making a map of their own living points. Rolf also began to learn how to make magical objects.
After the aftermath of the holidays, Rolf frequented the library and read the notes that Field had given him. He hopes to be able to participate in the creation of the live map. Add to that the letters to Dumbledore and the Minister of Magic, and they're busy again.
During this time, Field received a package from his maternal grandfather, Kevin Keller, in the mail of a dozen owls.
Two 20-inch LCD TVs were placed in the prefect's lounge, and one of them was turned into a part that night.
Field decided to start researching magic television first, while Rolf began to sort through the materials for writing letters, and the creation of the map was put aside by Field. In Field's words, "We're both otaku and don't like night tours, so this stuff doesn't work for us." ”
Over the next month, the two of them began to become elusive, except for the cafeteria and the classroom. The Hufflepuff students could barely see either of them.
They missed all the Quidditch matches in between. Until one day, Hagrid sent an owl to deliver a note to Field.
After class in the afternoon, Field and Rolf arrive at Hagrid's cabin.
"Hello, Hagrid, this is Rolf. ”
Hagrid's mood was not high, "Hello, Rolf. Field, the dragon's head flower has borne fruit, and now it looks like a salted egg yolk. I'll show you there. ”
They followed Hagrid to the nursery at the edge of the Forbidden Forest, where a nearly two-meter-long dragon's head flower bore three amber fruits. Field, with Hagrid's help, carefully picked them up.
"Hagrid, don't be sad, the fruit will be budding in two months. Field comforted Hagrid
"Oh, really, what should I do, or do I want to pour blood once a week?" Hagrid was noticeably better at Field's words, and muttered that he was going to raise a box of bees.
"When I go back and process the fruit, I'll give you those seeds, send them over, you can grow a few more. Field said
Then the three of them went back to Hagrid's hut, and Lue Hagrid asked the two of them what he wanted to name the next bud that would bloom. Field was suspicious that it wouldn't take two years for Hagrid to use the names of everyone he knew. As long as there is something to eat, dragon's head flower can bear fruit three times a year.
In the evening, Field went to see Professor Sprout again, and the four dragonheads on her side were obviously much smaller, less than one meter five, and the fruit was also one size smaller. He let out a visibly sigh when he saw the fruit that Field had harvested from Hagrid, her confidence shattered. Field didn't know what to say.
Back in the Hufflepuff prefects' lounge, Rolf was absent and Field handled the fruit of the dragon's headflower, sealing its juice and returning the seed to Hagrid as a gift.
Then he continued, researching liquid crystals, and Field's idea was to make magical LCD TVs, the kind in large sizes. Then connect to the magic network, just like the Floo network, to form a magic TV network, and then solve the signal transmission problem, and finally set up a magic TV station covering the entire magic world.
There are many problems that need to be solved.
Technically, there is not much of a problem, the magic device for signal transmission and reception, Field's "Rune Language" has been solved. The problem with the magic network is not big, Ernie is a shareholder of the Floo Network Company, this technology is ready-made, if it is convenient, you can directly borrow the line of the Floo Net. TV stations are not a problem, Grandpa Kevin has several satellite TV stations under his name, and they can be used directly as long as they are replaced with signal transmitters. All that remains to be solved now is the problem of the manufacture and imaging of liquid crystals, which is only a matter of time before Field, who is proficient in alchemy.
Then there's the issue of employees, wizards are hard to find, especially reporters and staff, Field's idea is that journalists go to the Daily Prophet to poach people, and the rest of the staff of the television station can recruit Muggles, and they have a lot of talent in this area. A non-disclosure deed can solve a lot of problems.
The problem is policy, the wizarding world is a world of old-fashioned things, and it is more difficult than anything else to convince the ministries of magic in various countries to agree to the launch of such a television station.
