The "033" thesis is sure to be a sensation in the wizarding world
"What? This little kid's paper? Seckel gave a very strange expression, "He looks like he's only a first or second grade...... What are you kidding? Mcgonagall. ”
That being said.
But she reached out and took Ringo's paper anyway.
"I'm not kidding, you have to take a good look, and I have to tell you that Ringo Shelby is a freshman this year, and it only took him half a month to master turning matches into needles." McGonagall smiled, without any serious expression on her face, and pushed Ringo forward, "Mr. Shelby, this lady's name is Edith Thurkel, and she is the editor in charge of the paper in Transfiguration Today. ”
Unfamiliar name......
But the surname is somewhat familiar......
A memory flashed through Ringo's heart, but he still nodded politely on the surface: "Lady Seckel, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
"Hmmm......"
Thurkel simply responded.
It seems that he is really anxious, and he has already started to read the paper: ""Analytic Transfiguration"...... Enhance wizards' understanding of shapeshifters with Muggle science to quickly master a single transfiguration routine from one object to another...... Muggle knowledge? That's not my area of expertise......"
"It's okay, ma'am."
Ringo knew what McGonagall meant by letting her stay.
He immediately stretched out his hand to give guidance to Seckel: "There are several sets of tests recorded here, and if you don't understand the technical terms of Muggles, you can directly look at the controlled trials." ”
Serkel looked at it immediately.
It records three groups of Ringo's failure to understand the deformation of the object, compared with the process of understanding the deformation of the object; There are also three groups of other young wizards who follow the traditional method and try to transform according to Ringo's diagram.
The results are very different......
Seckel read it quickly, but her face was still hard to believe: "I don't know Muggle knowledge at all, I don't know if your experiments are correct, and it's hard to figure out the reliability of your other content...... McGonagall, are you sure this can be listed? ”
"I can't read it, I can't make a statement." "But I've seen Shelby use a diagram in class to get the other little wizards who don't even move matches into the transformation stage, so I'm willing to believe him." ”
"But I can't see ......"
Secker pouted, "Or do you have a meditation basin here, so I can see the memories of that paragraph?" ”
"I don't have a meditation basin here, Dumbledore does, but would you like to see him?" I remember you had an unpleasant time with him. ”
"Humph! Forget it, let's continue to choose from these papers. Seckel looked at Ringo, "As for your paper, thank you......"
"Shelby, Ringo Shelby." Ringo smiled helplessly.
"Mr. Shelby, if McGonagall is right, and you do find a way to master Transfiguration quickly, then your thesis has merit, but...... It takes time to verify, I'll find time to verify later, how about it? ”
Ringo's eyes narrowed slightly.
He was reluctant to pass the opportunity: "Do you have to know Muggle knowledge to pass? You see, these books around me are the content of Muggles for more than ten years, and by the time you master them, I'm afraid I'll have graduated from Hogwarts......"
- This is an exaggeration.
But it did change Thurkel's mind.
She's not stupid.
Leaving aside the paper, the simple fact that the Transfiguration master McGonagall valued Ringo so much made her want to make friends.
And judging by her experience as an anamorphic essay editor.
If the paper is really feasible.
Being able to give wizards a quick grasp of Transfiguration, even with Muggle knowledge, is enough to cause a stir in the wizarding world!
Not to mention that the author of the paper is a first-year freshman!
Judging from the fact that the other party knows Muggle knowledge so well.
Maybe it's still a half-breed or Muggle-born who has lived in the Muggle world since childhood - even if the paper doesn't explode, this gimmick alone is enough to explode!
But the question is......
She's really in a hurry right now! And in a hurry! Very urgent! She didn't dare to waste her time!
"Mr. Shelby." She tried to keep her tone as serious as she could, as if she were talking to someone her age, "I'm not really strict enough to verify Muggle knowledge, but I have to at least validate your experiments, which will take time-"
"It won't take long!"
Ringo interrupted her suddenly, and then took out a copy of "High School Biology" from the textbook that was still floating on the side: "Ma'am, have you ever deformed green onions before?" Transform a teacup into a green onion. ”
"Uh......" said Secker reluctantly, "no. ”
"Then try!" Ringo pointed to McGonagall's teacup, "Professor, is that okay?" ”
McGonagall nodded and smiled, "Oh, of course." ”
"Then please turn Professor McGonagall's teacup into a green onion, don't hesitate ma'am, hurry up." Ringo suddenly gave a strong order.
Seckel froze.
Eventually, he pulled out his wand and said to the teacup, "-'Change of form'"
Click!
This is clearly an adult wizard who specializes in Transfiguration.
Although the first time it changed.
But it still quickly shrunk the teacup, forming a white-green cylinder, and then the column changed to green onions - but the speed was not particularly fast.
And there was a noticeable pause in the middle column state for a moment.
"Professor, please get it back to its original state." After Ringo's request, McGonagall handed the auxiliary material to Serkel, "Ma'am, this is the cross-sectional and longitudinal section composition of the green onion, as well as the root hair cells, duct cells, sieve cells and other cell diagrams that make up it, you don't need to know about the cells, you just need to know that there are millions of these cells connected together to form green onions, you look at it carefully, associate the cross-section with the cells, conceive it in the brain when it is transformed, and then change it again......"
It was the first time that Seckel had observed the composition of green onions in such detail.
The mouth is slightly open.
Seems a little surprised.
But after listening to Ringo's words, he nodded in agreement, tried to jot down the pictures, and then cast a transfiguration spell on the teacup again.
- "Change of Form"
This time, the teacup shrank at the same rate.
There is a shortening but not much.
But when the column turned to the green onion, the pause for that moment disappeared obviously, and the speed was so fast that it turned into a green onion in the almost blink of an eye.
Meantime.
This green onion is more real than the last one.
The roots are clear and countable.
The green onions are verdant.
If the first time it became an oil painting, it looked like it was blurry from a distance, then this time it was a photo, and it looked like it looked like it from a distance......
"Merlin's beard!"
Thurkel exclaimed, picked up Ringo's paper again, and looked at it, no longer skimming, but really reading it from the beginning, word by word, as if he didn't care that time was pressing.
During this time, I encountered Muggle vocabulary that I didn't understand.
He would also ask Ringo to find out from the textbook and let her have a preliminary understanding.
Ringo has nothing to offer.
Occasionally, he will act as a lecturer and give her detailed explanations.
Professor McGonagall became an outsider, and the two ignored her for a long time, but she was not angry, and returned to her seat to attend to the young wizards' homework, while occasionally looking up at Ringo and Seckel, smiling slightly, and then putting her head back to work.
Until the first class in the afternoon was approaching.
She said unhurriedly, "Two, I'm sorry to disturb you, the afternoon class is about to start, Mr. Shelby, I remember you still have a Charms class and a flying lesson in the afternoon, right?" ”
As soon as these words came out.
Ringo suddenly woke up: "Yes, I still have lessons, Lady Seckel, look? ”
"In that case, then go to class quickly and don't interfere with your learning." Serkel smiled slightly, no longer feeling the urgency he had just had.
"That paper ......"
"Passed."
"Passed? You've only seen three-quarters of the ......."
"That's enough, Mr. Shelby." Seckel put away Ringo's paper, "Analytic Transfiguration will be published in the next issue of Transfiguration Today, congratulations, you are only in your first year to publish your paper in a professional academic journal, and ......"
Ringo and McGonagall all looked at her.
"And I'm sure that as long as it gets out, it's going to be a sensation in the wizarding world!"
Serkel held out his hand to Ringo.
Sincere and respectful:
"Mr. Shelby, formally acquainted, my name is Edith Thurkel, and I'm sorry for snubbing you before."
