"Why did you two wake up so early today?" Scott looked at Fred and George inquiringly, "Unless...... You didn't sleep last night? ”

"We've slept enough over the summer! And great adventures are beckoning! Fred saluted in a strange way.

George raised his head "haughtily", "Mr. Trollope, who has been absent from a whole year of adventures, will not understand. ”

"But I'm supporting you, aren't I?" Scott gestured to the brass monoculars in Fred's hand.

"It's just your Christmas present from last year!" Fred shortened the retractable telescope into the pocket of his robe.

"It doesn't give us an early glimpse of the pesky old Filch on a night tour of the twisting castle." George also took an identical telescope out of his pocket and shook it, "We can only use it to observe what Percy is doing sneakily up." ”

"Maybe he wanted to ambush a few of his rivals by surprise under Ravenclawta." Fred speculated.

George's eyes widened in horror, "That way he'll be able to make sure he becomes the president of the student council in seventh grade!" ”

Scott couldn't help but laugh.

"Maybe he'll choose to kill you two obnoxious brothers first." He said.

"Oh, Percy must have thought that more than once." George blinked.

Fred continued, "He wants to be Minister of Magic, and we may be a stain on him in the future. ”

"He thought he would just get rid of the stain......"

“…… He'll be a pure and flawless Minister of Magic! ”

The two of them said strange things and laughed again.

After laughing, Fred suddenly said with a serious face, "We want to tell you, Scott." ”

"Welcome to join us again in the new school year." George also put on a serious look.

Scott was a little surprised. He only met the twins on a few night outings in his first and second grades, and together he evaded Filch, the janitor. And last school year he was obsessed with research and did not travel at night again.

Unexpectedly, the twins regarded him as a little friend on the night tour.

"Maybe?" Scott smiled and said uncertainly.

"That's it, if you make any new discoveries, be sure to let us know."

"Goodbye!"

The twins thought to themselves that he had agreed, and ran away laughing and running away like a gust of wind.

Scott shook his head and walked through the foyer into the auditorium.

He sat at the long table and read a book for a while, and food appeared on the table.

It's time for breakfast.

He put the book aside and took a glass of milk, some sausages and bacon, a sun egg, and a soda bread. Then began to enjoy his breakfast slowly.

Just as Scott was about to finish his meal, three of his roommates showed up at the long table.

"Scott, why did you wake up so early?" Roger yawned and sat next to Scott.

"Maybe I got used to it during the summer vacation." "I followed my parents' routine during the summer. ”

"You know what, Scott, something big happened last night when we didn't know it." Eddie said in a muffled voice as he tore the bread into pieces and put it into his mouth.

"What's the matter?"

Scott drank the milk from the cup in one gulp and put down the cup in his hand.

"You know, when school starts, the freshmen have to learn to know their way back later than we do. So we missed this thing last night! ”

Eddie obviously regretted not getting the first hand on the news, but he told Scott with great interest: "Last night when Cooper and Taylor were leading the freshmen up the spiral staircase of Ravenclawta, one of the freshmen pushed a girl down the staircase. ”

When Scott heard this, he immediately thought of something, so he asked him, "Is the girl okay?" ”

"It's okay, Cooper used the levitation charm on her just in time." Eddie laughed, "Anyway, the boy who pushed the man caused a lot of outrage, and he was kicked out of the dorm room by his roommates and slept in the common room for the night, only to be sent back by Penneno in the morning." ”

I see.

Scott understood that the boy was Jacob Kent.

But...... He always felt that the boy didn't act like he would have the guts to push his classmate down the stairs.

But Penneno has already dealt with the matter. Scott thinks she'll handle it a little better than Cooper and Taylor.

So he quickly dropped the matter.

"I'm going to talk to Professor Flitwick, so I'm going to the Charms classroom first." Scott picked up the book on the table and stood up, "I'll see you in class later, Roger, Milton." ”

"I'll go with you, Scott!"

Roger stood up with his book in his hand, still holding a sandwich in his hand.

"I need to ask the professor to cancel my divination class."

"Let's be together, then." Scott has no opinion.

The two of them walked against the current from the students who were entering the auditorium one after another, all the way to the Charms classroom on the fourth floor of the castle's main body.

Scott pushed open the door to the classroom, and sure enough, Professor Flitwick was already standing on the stack of books next to the podium.

Professor Flitwick always had a habit of coming to the classroom early to watch every student arrive.

"Good morning, Professor Flitwick."

Scott and Roger greeted each other respectfully.

"Good morning! Scott, Roger! Professor Flitwick responded kindly, he was part of his elven blood, which made him short and high-pitched.

"Professor......

Roger stepped forward first to explain his request to Professor Flitwick.

Professor Flitwick didn't object after listening to Roger's words, he smiled and said, "That's normal, Roger. I think it is also a manifestation of wisdom for students to allocate their time reasonably and give up some topics that are destined to be fruitless. ”

"Thank you, Professor!"

Roger was glad that he had been recognized by Professor Flitwick.

"Then your divination class will be cancelled this school year, and I'll explain it to Professor Trelawney."

Professor Flitwick nodded, then looked at Scott again.

"Do you have something to tell me about too? Scott. ”

"Of course." Scott stepped forward and smiled confidently, "I can't wait to show you a result, so I came to the classroom early, and this is also a birthday present for you in advance." ”

"Birthday present?"

Professor Flitwick screamed with excitement. Although his birthday on October 17 is still more than a month away, what about him!

"Oh! I love birthday presents! So, what are you waiting for? Mr. Trollope! He couldn't help but look very expectant.

"I'll show you!"

Scott reached into the deformed lizard skin pouch around his waist and pulled out an oil painting almost his height.

Professor Flitwick smiled, he could tell that Scott's shapeshifting lizard bag was just a disguise, and it was clearly something that could only be held with the Traceless Stretch Charm, but he didn't expose it.

He just looked expectantly at the oil painting in front of him covered with a white cloth.

"Could it be...... Mr. Trollope, you taught yourself magic painting? Professor Flitwick rubbed his hands.

"It's not a magic painting."

Scott reached out and grabbed the white cloth.

"Although I only used Muggle painting techniques, I felt that this painting was a better representation of my work than magic painting."

With that, he tore off the white cloth.

"Oh!!"

Looking at the oil painting that suddenly appeared in front of him, Professor Flitwick's eyes widened instantly, and he suddenly let out a high-pitched scream and fell off the stack of books.

Roger hurried to help him, but Professor Flitwick didn't care about it, and got up from the ground and walked quickly to the close side of the painting, looking up with his head obsessive.

"Oh...... It's true...... It's incredible......"

His mouth kept exclaiming.

Scott couldn't help but smile smugly as he watched Professor Flitwick's reaction, "Professor, are you happy with this birthday present?" ”

"Satisfied, so satisfied!"

Professor Flitwick nodded, a smile on his face.
