436. Teaching a son does not need a reason

After breakfast, Scott checked the contents of the Daily Prophet and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that there was no report of his own.

He understood that someone had deliberately helped him suppress the news.

Scott didn't know who did it, maybe Professor Flitwick, or someone else, but anyway, it saved him a lot of trouble.

Afterward, he follows Fred and George to their room, where they show him the results of their summer research.

"We've improved the magic camera."

"Of course, there are other goodies."

Scott watched their results with great interest.

The [Magic Camera] hasn't changed much, but it's a lot easier to operate.

Everything else is some prankster gadget.

These things may sell well, but they don't have much practical use.

Scott also shared his latest creation, [Magic Phone], with them, and made two of them on the spot.

Fred and George were clearly interested in [Magic Phone], and after trying to exchange messages and calls with Scott, they realized the huge business opportunities involved.

"If you can make it possible for everyone to talk to each other, like [the Book of Prometheus], this thing will definitely sell!" George said excitedly.

Scott said, "The knowledge is redeemed at the [knowledge bank], and the underlying magic loop comes from the retention data that builds the [knowledge bank]. ”

Fred asked, "How do you get everybody talking to each other?" ”

"That's hard."

Scott thought for a moment.

"Now that our connection is based on my [Magic Mirror], as you all know, the materials I used to make [Magic Mirror] in the first place were not very precious, and it obviously didn't carry much information."

Fred and George soon understood.

"If all wizards in Britain can talk to each other with [magic phones]......"

"You need to build a magic device like [the knowledge bank]."

Scott nodded, "Not to mention the technical difficulty of building a magic device, the first problem we have to face is the cost of precious materials, which requires a lot of money. ”

Money is a big deal.

But Fred and George were only depressed for a moment before picking themselves up again.

"But it's a great invention that can change the entire wizarding world."

"We've got to do it!"

Scott couldn't help but laugh.

"I feel like we can change the wizarding world and change the way all wizards live......"

There is the [Magic Camera] invented by the twins, the [Magic Crystal Player] he invented, the [Magic Phone], and Nicol? The knowledge left behind by Lemay after making [knowledge banks], they can change a lot of things.

Maybe they could make television, movies, cell phones, and even the Internet, Muggle inventions into the wizarding world in another form.

On a whim, Scott couldn't help but gush a lot.

Of course, most of them are just words on paper.

But both Fred and George listened with relish.

Even though they don't know much of the nouns Scott utters, they are all open to new things.

And Scott couldn't help but think in the process of telling, maybe he could really take these as a career.

He remembered Eddie's dream of starting a magical media company.

He, twins, Eddie ......

Maybe there are more like-minded guys.

If they are serious about doing it, they may be able to create a new era.

It's a pity......

The wizarding world is not at peace right now, and with the prophecies he will face, Scott is not sure that he will survive the catastrophe unscathed.

In short, although the ideal is very beautiful, there are still many practical problems that he has to face.

And they don't have the conditions to do that until everything settles down.

But Scott feels that he can start accumulating strength from now on, which can also be called technical reserves.

Although he wasn't prepared to spend too much energy on it, the two guys in front of him, who were always full of whimsy, might be able to surprise him more.

It's just that their thinking still needs to be developed, and listening to him is obviously not intuitive, and many things can only be understood after experiencing it firsthand.

So he proposed, "You should come with me to London and spend a few days experiencing Muggle life, that might give you more inspiration." ”

They can borrow Milton's apartment in London.

Hearing his proposal, Fred and George were very moved.

But if they want to go out, the first thing they need to face is parental consent.

At the lunch table, Scott took the initiative to bring up the topic of Mrs. Weasley.

Of course, his argument was that the twins were curious about the daily life of Muggles, and that he could take them to experience them for a few days.

Hearing his words, only Percy was unmoved, and both Ron and Ginny looked at the twins with some envy.

"Oh, dear, no." Mrs. Weasley rejected his offer, "I know them, Fred and George, these two guys are so naughty that they're going to make a mess and end up being arrested by the Ministry of Magic." ”

She glared at the twins.

"Your dad said that the Ministry of Magic has been very busy lately, and it's not peaceful outside, so don't make trouble for everyone!"

"Oh no!" Fred clutched his head in pain.

"Mom, trust us! We can guarantee that you will never get into trouble! George stressed loudly.

"You're not allowed to go anywhere!" Mrs. Weasley refused louder.

She also said to Scott, "You too, my dear, you have just been attacked by the Dark Wizard, and I wonder if you will encounter any other dangers." For your safety, stay in our house all the time. Arthur and I won't let you go alone unless Professor Flitwick comes to pick you up. ”

Without waiting for Scott to say anything, she said forcefully: "It's decided!" ”

Scott didn't expect that he would be restrained at all, but he couldn't live up to Mrs. Weasley's kindness, so he could only vaguely agree.

So he got the twins to look at the traitor.

"Oh, Scott, what's the matter with you, compromise too quickly!"

After lunch, Fred couldn't help but complain to Scott.

"I thought we could actually go to London." George muttered, "I'd love to see the TV and movies you said." ”

Scott could only admit that he was not well thought out, "Mrs. Weasley's worries are not unreasonable, and I am also a little worried about being attacked again. ”

Unlike the fact that no one knows about his killing of the Caro siblings, although this time the incident has not been reported, many people still know that he killed two Death Eaters who had just escaped from prison, and it will inevitably reach the ears of other Death Eaters, who knows if there will be follow-up retaliation.

In short, it's better to be careful.

Scott didn't want to bother his friends again.

Fred and George were struggling with what they couldn't play, but Ron and Ginny gathered around, they had just heard from Mrs. Weasley about Scott's attack by the Dark Wizard, and they were curious to ask about it.

Even Percy didn't rush back to the room, pretending not to care, and sat on the sidelines, stretching his ears to listen.

Scott doesn't tell Ron and Ginny the details, only that Strierner destroyed their house and brought two dark wizards with him to get revenge on him.

Both siblings Ron and Ginny remember what happened at the dueling club, and they both have memories of Strierna.

"You say, will Malfoy take revenge on me with the Dark Wizard as well? Oh, and Harry! Ron said in a sly manner, "I'm going to write to Harry and tell him to be careful!" ”

Ginny couldn't help but roll her eyes at him.

"Don't worry, Ron, Malfoy didn't take you seriously, Harry lives with Professor Black."

"What do you know!" Ron shook his hand impatiently, "Because I'm always against Malfoy, that kid must hate me!" ”

Ron then cites a lot of evidence to try to prove that he is Malfoy Jr.'s nemesis, and that his status and importance can be equal to Harry's.

But Ginny was dismissive of it, and Ron was so angry that he quarreled with her.

Fred and George belonged to the excitement and did not think it was a big deal, and decisively joined the "battlefield".

"Oh, Ron, my silly brother."

"I guess in the eyes of little Malfoy, you're just Harry's henchman."

"Just like Goyle and Crabbe in your eyes."

"Just as stupid."

Ron blushed with anger, "Harry and I are friends!" You two are Scott's henchmen! ”

Scott didn't expect that the war would affect him like this.

Fred and George were unimpressed by Ron's counterattack and burst out laughing.

"That's right, we're Mr. Trollope's henchmen."

"Because the great Mr. Trollope can take us to make money."

The two of them deliberately put on a proud look, and pretended to pinch Scott's shoulders and beat his back, like two dogs.

Ginny giggled at this, but Ron felt insulted and yelled, "Harry and I didn't do that!" ”

"Ron, don't make a lot of noise, don't bully your sister!" Percy scolded him and turned to go upstairs.

Ron's expression was like he had been punched in the face.

"What's the matter with him?" He groaned in pain and glared at Percy's back with indignation.

However, both the twins and Ginny gloat at him.

Scott fully appreciates Ron's status at the bottom of the family.

It's miserable.

He couldn't help but pat the young man on the shoulder sympathetically, but only got Ron's inexplicable look.

Later, Scott either wanders around the village with the Weasley siblings, or works together as twins, making small inventions, or helping Mrs. Weasley with some things.

Three days later, he couldn't resist writing to Professor Flitwick.

Because I was a bit bored, I couldn't study quietly and follow my own plan, and I couldn't summon a Ravenclaw tutor to listen to the class.

During this time, he did not see Luna.

According to Ginny, Luna's dad left the house with her, not knowing where to go to observe Fantastic Beasts.

After making an appointment with the twins to say goodbye to the Quidditch World Cup final, Scott followed Professor Flitwick to the Headmaster's office at Hogwarts through the fireplace.

Dumbledore has returned.

"Good morning, Professor Dumbledore."

Scott offered to greet Dumbledore, who was sitting behind his desk.

"Good morning, Scott." Dumbledore looked at him, "Are you okay?" ”

Scott understood what he meant.

It's because I want to know if his state is still abnormal after taking someone's life with his own hands.

"I'm fine, Professor." Scott behaved calmly.

After he took someone's life for the first time, he was calm, and he wouldn't have any psychological trauma.

Dumbledore looked at him a few more times.

"I'm glad you came out."

"The Weasley family has a great vibe," Scott said. ”

"Oh, that's a loving family, isn't it?" Dumbledore said happily, "It's enviable." ”

Well......

It's really loving, but Scott isn't an orphan so he won't be as envious as Harry.

"So I want to go back to my house as soon as possible." Scott said.

"Good." Dumbledore nodded repeatedly, "The warmth of family can heal everything, only true love can save a wounded soul." ”

Scott was tempted to emphasize that his soul was not injured, after all, he did not use the Requisition Curse to kill.

Dumbledore's next words surprised him a little.

"By the way, I want to tell you that I went to Hastings." The old headmaster said, "You can see that you have been through a difficult battle. ”

Scott didn't speak.

It's tough, indeed.

Although the process was not too thrilling in retrospect, if it wasn't for Rimbaud leading the crows to defend him against those black magic in his flesh and blood, he really wouldn't have been able to get away with it if he hadn't killed the killers.

That fight was also a test of Scott's strength, giving him a clearer idea of his level.

Of course, out of caution for fear of association, he did not use methods such as poisoning, or shrinking the crow and disemboweling it.

Dumbledore said kindly, "Don't worry, we don't blame you, and there is nothing wrong with an attack at any time just to protect yourself." ”

"I understand." Scott told the truth, "I'm sorry for killing those three people, but I'm not sorry. ”

Hearing him say this, Professor Flitwick, who was standing beside him, patted his arm comfortingly.

Scott hurriedly smiled at him.

Dumbledore added, "Of course, yes, no one will accuse you in this matter, except the other Death Eaters. ”

He told Scott to relax, sat him down with Professor Flitwick, served them tea and snacks, and started small talk.

"I think you've heard a lot of news that Voldemort has really come back to life, and after the failed first robbery, he did it a second time, and sadly, he succeeded."

"I know a lot."

Scott didn't plan to say anything about his surveillance of Azkaban, which would reveal that he had been to Azkaban himself, but he didn't hide it all either.

"You should know that I can command the crows to do things for me, including finding out the news."

Dumbledore asked with interest, "Oh?" Because of that magical raven that can get bigger? Can you elaborate on that? ”

Scott tells the truth about Rimbaud's origins and what it does.

I have to say that it is a bit extravagant for him to spend a disposable magic stone to make Rimbaud.

But both professors understood what he was thinking.

The urgency that the magic you love can be further advanced in this way is hard to resist.

Scott continued, "Rimbaud has become the king of the crows, and the crows are not only able to assist me in my battles, they are all very intelligent, so the more important thing is to find out the news everywhere. ”

Professor Flitwick's eyes lit up, "Because of Rimbaud, you don't have to find a way to communicate with other crows. ”

Scott nodded.

"I suspect ......," he said solemnly, "Voldemort is hiding in Malfoy Manor." ”

"I know." Dumbledore said.

Instead of asking him why he didn't attack Malfoy Manor, Scott talked about Medea's side, most notably William.

He recounted in detail his meeting and conversation with William.

Professor Flitwick became anxious when he heard the news.

"Oh, William, that silly boy." He was a little nervous, "Albus, we can't let such a young man be in danger. ”

Dumbledore let out a long sigh, "But we can't do much, Felius, and don't forget, we haven't been able to remove the Dark Mark from those people's hands. ”

Professor Flitwick plummeted.

Dumbledore was interested in the communication tools that Scott had given William.

Scott took out two [Magic Phones] that he had made at Weasley's house, explained them, and gave them to the two professors.

"I'd love to see these ideas from young people." Dumbledore poked the mirror of [Magic Phone] with his hand, "It will make me feel like I see a better future." ”

Scott immediately explained to him his vision for the future, as well as the knowledge he had.

Both professors were intrigued by his idea.

Using magic to implement television, movies, and instant messaging can really change the lives of wizards.

Dumbledore smiled and said, "I can't wait to see that future." ”

"I can't wait to realize this future with my friends." Scott said, "It's just a pity ......"

He shook his head.

"Everything will be fine." Professor Flitwick hurriedly comforted him, "You will have a bright future. ”

"I'll try."

Scott skipped the topic and went back to Medea and William.

"According to William, Medea has fallen into a deep sleep because of Voldemort's curse, which may have completely disrupted her plans."

Dumbledore understood, "Our forces at the Ministry of Magic will take this opportunity to speed up. ”

He apparently didn't think of Scott as an ignorant child anymore.

Scott also said directly: "The Ministry of Magic needs a strong leader, but it is not enough to be strong, it also needs to be able to unite most of the forces." ”

At this time, this candidate may really only be qualified by Dumbledore.

But Dumbledore clearly still had no intention of doing so.

"I will elect Ms. Burns." He said.

Scott didn't think that the somewhat rigid Ms. Burns would be able to do the job of the Minister of Magic in this chaotic time.

It can be seen from her previous arrangements for Azkaban.

But Ms. Burns also has her perks.

The good thing is that she will obviously do her best to cooperate with Dumbledore, and will not be obsessed with fighting for power like Fudge or others.

So Scott just said, "If Ms. Burns becomes a minister, she may need to arrange for more wizards to keep her safe." ”

Otherwise, the lady might not be able to withstand even one attack from Voldemort and the Death Eaters, and even others would not have time to rescue her.

Dumbledore just smiled, "Looks like you know a lot. ”

They talked until noon, and then had lunch together, before Scott was dropped off at London's Heathrow Airport by Professor Flitwick.

After Scott bought his ticket, they talked for a while in the corner of the airport hall.

Professor Flitwick said earnestly, "Scott, I wish you could focus more on the magic itself than on other ......"

He wasn't happy to see Scott get involved in too many other things.

Obviously, as he said before, he would prefer Scott to go a purer path and not be distracted by other things.

Scott was a little helpless about this.

There are many things that he did not take the initiative to mix, and he can only say that he can't help himself.

"Of course, I know that the prophecy has disturbed you." Professor Flitwick continued, "But that's why you should focus more on magic. Nothing is more important than improving yourself. ”

"I know, Professor, I'll take notice." Scott replied with a head.

Professor Flitwick sighed.

"If everything is peaceful now and you don't have those things, then I will support you to have more hobbies. But obviously, you don't have a lot of time. ”

Scott nodded again in agreement.

Until he got on the plane, he was thinking back to Professor Flitwick's words, and by the way, reflecting on himself.

While it's true that some things are out of your mind, it's really not the time to think about things like magic that can transform TV or movies.

Scott decided to keep those wonderful thoughts in the depths of his memory for the time being.

In the afternoon, returning home alone to Madrid, Scott was greeted by Emilia's Count.

She was very angry that she was just going abroad to attend a concert, but there were many accidents, and she went to England for a long time before returning home.

Scott pretended to be a hippie smile for a long time, and the expression on Amilia's face looked better.

He couldn't help but be glad Emilia didn't know about the battle in Hastings, otherwise she would have been even angrier.

After coaxing Amelia, Scott goes out to Michael's antique shop and tells him what happened in Hastings.

"I told you not to go." Michael smacked him on the head hard, "But you're going to risk your life." ”

Scott rubbed his head and said, "It didn't turn out to be too dangerous. ”

Michael disagreed: "You can't guarantee that you will have good luck every time. ”

Scott said aggrievedly: "But you didn't stop me on the phone, and said to trust my judgment!" ”

"I do trust your judgment."

Michael glanced at him.

"A guy who can only destroy uninhabited houses is not very clever, and I believe you can handle it."

"Then why ......"

"Of course, I hope you'll be more cautious in the future."

"I see, Daddy."

Just a father teaching his son, you don't need a reason, right?
