Tonks transformed his beak into a duck's beak.

Knock it up and down, making a clicking sound.

Then her cheeks grew black and white again.

Soon her entire face turned into some kind of animal.

Hairy, black and white.

A cute thing with dark circles.

"Wow! You're amazing! Hermione sighed again.

Transfiguration Magus like Tonks is the one who evokes the imagination of magic.

Except for the illusion charm, there is almost only one way to easily change one's appearance.

Potions can do a good job, but they are time-sensitive.

Compound decoctions vary from person to person, but the longest is only a few hours.

And the likes of Tonks are precious treasures to the Ministry of Magic.

"Ministry of Magic!" Ron shook his head, "I'll never work at the Ministry of Magic in my life!" ”

"Me too!" Harry followed.

If he could, he hopes to become a professional Quidditch player in the future.

"What do you say?" At this time, Mrs. Weasley, who was preparing breakfast, came over angrily.

Under her magic, the entire kitchen is methodically automated.

When it comes to dealing with ingredients, even Dumbledore is not as good as her.

She knew more about food spells than Dumbledore knew about the dark arts.

"What's wrong with the work of the Ministry of Magic? Your father is in the Ministry of Magic, Ronald I warn you, don't judge the Ministry of Magic. ”

"Got it." Ron said impatiently, waving his hand, wanting to continue to engage in the conversation about the little wizard.

"What do you know?" Mrs. Weasley looked very angry, and immediately glared at George and Fred viciously.

Because in her opinion, her youngest son's malice towards the Ministry of Magic was completely caused by these two mischievous twins.

For her, a stable, civilian job at the Ministry of Magic, that would probably be the best in the world.

Owen tilted his head to look, but saw that the twins were looking at their mother angrily, but he didn't dare to say a word.

Sure enough, in the eyes of parents, the entrance examination is the end of the universe!

"It's so much better to get a job in the Ministry of Magic than to spend all day studying things that don't make sense. I warn you two not to study any more harmful things. Mrs. Weasley said, pointing to the twins' noses.

The aura is 1.8 meters!

It's scary.

The little wizards around them all shrank their heads, inexplicably a little afraid.

"Alright, Molly. It's good that children have their own ideas. At that moment, Mr. Weasley, stepped into the tent.

He was wearing a mountaineering suit.

Muggle clothes.

He wears a large sunhat on his head.

Between his elbows were a few thick sheets of newspaper.

"It depends on whether it's a good idea or a bad idea!" Mrs. Weasley was still resentful.

She rolled her eyes at her husband.

He's a father who gives his kids a bad head, dismantling Muggle cars, and spending all day in his workshop and tinkering with the machines.

George and Fred must have fallen into this way.

"It's always good to have ideas. How boring it is lifeless. Arthur smiled awkwardly and quickly brought up the topic, noticing the way his wife looked at him.

It's mostly complaining.

Yes, those hobbies of my own inevitably affect the children, but it is too late to say this.

He had seen the invention of his two twin sons.

It's funny, and it's also moot.

Maybe they'll be able to achieve something extraordinary.

In this regard, he is a little more open than Molly.

"What are you talking about?" As she spoke, Mr. Arthur, like an old father, walked with his eyes wide, the corners of his mouth raised, and his arms outstretched as if he were a child.

Weasley had so many children in his family, and he was very experienced in this area.

"We're talking about other magic schools." Ron responded.

"Oh! School of Magic! Mr. Arthur looked at the young wizards, and then his eyes lit up, "I remember that Bill used to have a pen pal from Castrobuscher's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and they used to write and talk a lot for a while, until one day, his pen pal suddenly sent a hat with a curse on it, which made both of Bill's ears wrinkle. ”

His eyes lit up, and it seemed that the hat had made a deep impression on him.

"That's right, we studied the hat afterwards, and there was some magic in it that was very different from Europe, and it was amazing, and it took us days to figure out how to crack it." Talking about the heroic deeds of the past, the twins happily waved their arms and stood up.

His face was full of pride, "That hat is still hanging in our living room!" ”

"Humph!" Mrs. Weasley snorted, "That's a warning, a warning against making friends indiscriminately!" ”

"No!" The twins tilted their heads, "That's a trophy!" We were able to break the spell of wizards in other regions, which was a remarkable achievement, and Fred and I were only nine years old at the time. ”

"Haha, that's right, it was a trophy, I thought of a lot of ways until I ————" Mr. Arthur became enthusiastic, and he told the story of the hat with a fluttering eyebrow, until Mrs. Weasley stepped on his shoes and glared at him, and Mr. Arthur slowly put away the smile on his face as if choking.

"Ahem - Mom is right, you should be cautious about making friends, especially don't casually tell outsiders the address of your home."

He continued to add Mrs. Weasley.

Hearing this, Molly finally smiled with satisfaction.

Then he turned around happily and with the help of Kreacher, he went to deal with the ingredients.

Seeing him leave, Mr. Arthur suddenly took a step closer, then bowed his head and said in a low voice, "I thought of a lot of things about that hat, and in the end guess how I removed the prank magic on it?" ”

Owen looked at Mr. Arthur with a mysterious expression on his face.

At the bottom of their hearts, they are more and more sure that the twins' talent for mischief is definitely inherited from their father.

And that hat was the beginning of their prank!

Who would have thought that on the other side of the ocean, the unintentional actions of a Castrobuscher wizard would inspire two future masters of magic tricks.

I can only say fate! It's amazing.

"Stop?"

"It's still a manifest spell, I think it's also possible to use magic elimination potions." Hermione blinked, and in one breath uttered more than a dozen spells and magic items to dispel the dark magic.

But Mr. Arthur remained smiling and silent.

It wasn't until Hermione exhausted his Charms dictionary that he spoke, "You're amazed Hermione, you know so many spells, and even some of them are no longer modern, they are very old spells, and I can guarantee that you won't find them in the Hogwarts library section." ”

"Uh" Hermione touched her head a little embarrassed, did she want to say that over the years, whether she had relied on the Cloak of Invisibility, or to please Lockhart, or from Sirius, she had tried her best to get the approval slip, in order to sneak into the forbidden book area

It's been three years, and only Professor Lupin has dutifully refused to give approval no matter what she says.

The rest of the Defence Against the Dark Arts professors are simply Hermione's stamp presses!

"Forget it, I won't ask where you know so much magic." Mr. Arthur blinked, "After all, everyone has their own secrets, doesn't they?" ”

"Actually, I lifted the wand without using any magic.

I had always thought that he must have been cast some kind of prank, but then I realized that it was not a spell at all, but a material, the green vine that weaved the hat, a magical plant endemic to South America, and its juice would make wizards listless, and even wrinkle their skin in severe cases. ”

"Luckily, the hat has been sunburned and doesn't have much juice, otherwise Bill would have wrinkled not just his ears, but his entire head."

"It's amazing." Hermione sighed.

She longed for this magical childhood experience.

"Hey, I remember this." "It seems like Bill's pen pal invited him to Brazil, but he didn't," Ron said. ”

"Didn't go?"

All right!

Owen understood in an instant.

It is estimated that Bill was only sixteen or seventeen years old at that time, and he had just been in his sixth or seventh year at Hogwarts, not to mention whether the Weasleys had the money to support his trip to South America.

Even if she had the money, Mrs. Weasley wouldn't allow her children to travel that far alone.

Bill's pen pal was destined to be no-shown.

It's just that this big brother's heart is a little small.

Just break the appointment and retaliate.

Not at all like himself, open-minded and eager to help others.

"Alright kids, ready to eat!" At that moment, Mrs. Weasley's voice rang out.

In the next second, Owen jumped up directly from the sofa.

Eyes scanned the surroundings.

Dine!!!

Who dares to rob me!

Then, he rushed to the table, sat down numbly, and began to wait for the feeding with a knife and fork.

Seeing this, Mrs. Weasley's face spread into a loving smile.

She had heard Irving's story from Ron.

It is known that he also has no parents and has lived in a Muggle orphanage since he was a child.

After that, he lived with a wizard who claimed to be his grandfather, but when he was ten years old, he began to live alone again.

Ten years old!

began to live alone.

This made Molly's heart frightened and heartache even more.

"Let's try this." Don't wait for anyone to arrive.

She brought all kinds of food from the kitchen and put them in front of Owen.

"French dinner, vegetable snail bread, and beef patties."

"Huh? Vegetable snail bread? Owen was stunned for a moment, and the joy on his face paused for a second, as if he was stuck, "What kind of dish is this?" ”

How does it sound like a mischievous product of the Weasley Twins?

Suspiciously, he picked up the toasted brown bread and, restrainedly, took a bite.

Well, how to say it?

There is a faint smell of meat, but the meat smell is very strange, probably because of the snail.

The bread is slightly sticky and transparent, like the cheese or cheese that is unique to pizza.

All in all, it tastes delicious, but it looks good.

Since the sticky substance looked like snot, it was really unappetizing

At this time, everyone else also sat down.

The Weasley children just glanced at the snot bread in Owen's hand, and they all chose the beef pie very tacitly.

Mom always tries this new dish.

What Owen doesn't know is that the Weasley twins' talent may not have come from Mr. Arthur, but from their mother, Ms. Molly.

After taking a sip of milk, Hermione began to urgently ask Owen about the other schools of magic, "What about the rest, these are only eight schools of magic." ”

After silently changing back the beef patty and giving Mrs. Weasley a thumbs up to affirm her innovative thinking, Owen said with a relieved face: "There is a branch of Hogwarts in India, you know, Padma Pettier and Padma Pettil are from India, but they chose Hogwarts instead of their local school. ”

"Uh" Hermione naturally understood what Owen meant.

East India Company, Victorian.

The jewel on the Queen's head.

The most glorious era of the British Empire.

If there was a Hogwarts campus there, that would be in the past.

"The tenth school in New Zealand, the only school of magic in Oceania, also has a historical connection to Hogwarts."

"It was a magical school established during the Age of Discovery, an important supply depot for wizards traveling around the world.

During those days, it was fashionable to travel the world with a broomstick.

Almost every wizard who graduated from Gryffindor, as well as some Hufflepuffs, traveled in a group, and most of them challenged the ocean with their broomsticks! And see this behavior as a test of courage after graduation. ”

"Wow!! Cruel!!! ”

"Merlin's beard, that's so interesting!"

"We should regain the glory of our former seniors!"

As soon as this was mentioned, the Gryffindors present immediately couldn't sit still and sighed one after another.

Even Hermione's face was a little yearning.

After all, the freedom and courage to fight the ocean is the ultimate pursuit of every Gryffindor.

Compared to the current Hogwarts students, the young wizards of the past were more enthusiastic and reckless. And this can also be called courage.

It is precisely because of this challenge that it comes with a variety of unpredictable dangers.

After all, it was just a group of wizards who had just graduated from Hogwarts, riding their own homemade brooms, and few of them could complete the journey around the world.

And most of them will have accidents along the way.

It was because there were so many accidents and because such routes were easily detected by Muggles that these activities ended up being boycotted by both Hogwarts and the Federation.

With the end of the Muggle Age of Discovery.

The trials of courage of wizards have also been buried by time.

"Well, children, I must warn you that it is dangerous to cross the ocean. Even the current broom is not stable enough for you to circumnavigate the globe without accidents. "Seeing the spirits of the little wizards around him.

as their professor.

Sirius finally couldn't help but remind.

Mrs. Weasley, on the other hand, was simply direct, she glared at Weasley's children, and said angrily: "Hurry up and dispel this idea for me, if you let me know which of you dares to make a broomstick quietly, then he will stay in the attic for the whole summer and don't come out!" ”

Hearing the sound, the twins, who were taken care of by Mo Li, shivered.

Stayed in the attic for the whole summer

It's cruel.

"And the last one! What about the last school of magic? Hermione continued.

It was only halfway through her speech that she suddenly stopped.

Because that's the only place left.

"Here you go!" Owen, chewing the pie in his mouth, took a large gulp, a porridge that looked like corn paste, and then fumbled with it, pulled out a stack of newspapers from his pocket and handed it to Hermione.

The little witch was a little puzzled, but she quickly took it in her hand.

Then she was greeted by the name of the newspaper: "Gargoyle's Roar", a French magical newspaper with obscure French that she could barely read.

Thank you Sister Fleur for your sincere teachings.

Gargoyle Roar, 1st edition, Paris, July 1994, No. 291254 - 25 centimes (French magic currency)

Front:

France defeated Germany in the World Cup - is this a predestined fate?

The arrival of the French Aurors in England - a distress signal for the British!

Barty Krach visits Paris – received by the Minister of Magic himself.

Britain and France work together to resist the Dark Wizards.

Column:

French wizards are intimidated!

Snow demons from the Alps ravage Muggle towns, and magical animal conservation experts claim that this may be due to a warming climate.

French Quidditch – the world's Macir Defence – was completely lost

Exclusive:

Voices from the Ming Dynasty - a different kind of magical world!

"It's—" Hermione was immediately intrigued by the words at the sight of some more words.

Her eyes widened and she continued.

She discovered that it was actually an interview with an official of the Ministry of Magic of the Ming Dynasty by the International Association of Wizards.

———— as I stepped into this land, I couldn't imagine that our companion, the Ming Ministry of Magic, did not strictly abide by the regulations of the Wizarding Secrecy Law.

They had contact with local Muggles.

At Chang'an School of Magic, professors even encourage students to live and work in the mortal world.

They call this serious violation of the law WTO accession.

Aren't the wizards of the Ming Dynasty afraid of being discovered by mortals (the Ming call Muggles who don't know magic mortals) and get into trouble?

Hearing my inquiry—the Ministry of Magic official seemed unimpressed, and he smiled and told me a story.

Once, while searching for a precious herb in the Qinling Mountains, he met a few mortals, and it was clear that Muggles had discovered this while he was using the illumination spell on his hand.

But the mortals weren't scared away.

Instead, he warmly invited him to his house for a drink.

It was clear that these Muggles regarded him as an immortal and wanted to accumulate good fortune.

At that time, he was also a little tired, so he simply followed these Muggles down the mountain, and after he was full of wine and food, under the strong plea of the Muggles, he made a fool of himself.

Then he swaggered away.

Since then he has become a local legend. Mortals built him ancestral halls and temples to worship him.

Later, when he visited the village again, he found that the mortals were whipping his wood carvings.

After inquiring, he learned that it was because a local woman had made a wish to give birth to a girl.

But six children in a row are all boys.

Finally, after the birth of the seventh boy, the man could not bear it anymore, so he angrily moved his sculpture out of the temple, scolded him, and whipped the sculpture.

Finally, the official of the Ministry of Magic smiled and said, "In Daming, these are all things that are taken for granted. ”
