Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

Page 424

For these gazes and discussions, just ignore them, and treat these people as if they don't exist.

To do this, you undoubtedly need a strong heart.

Until now, Harry hadn't been able to do this like Ivan did. His mood this morning was ruined, just like the enchanted ceiling in the auditorium: gray and gloomy.

This morning, before Harry got up, Seamus got up early and left the dormitory.

Everyone was avoiding him along the way, and a group of Ravenclaw sixth-year students immediately huddled together and huddled together when they saw him.

It looked like it was afraid that Harry would kill those who fell behind.

The current situation is even worse than when the basilisk was raging in the castle before. At least at that time, the students from the pure-blood wizard family did not have to worry about Harry. Everyone knew that the descendants of Slytherin would not treat the pure blood blood opponent...

But now, looking at the performance of these people, I don't know whether they are afraid of Voldemort, or Ivan and Harry.

"Look at them, do they think I'm going to cast a Killing Curse, or if I stay with me for too long, I'll turn crazy?" Harry said dissatisfiedly, sitting with Ron and Colin Opposite Alvin and Hermione.

"Don't take this kind of thing to heart, as long as we know we are right." Ivan said.

"Ron, Ivan and I discussed it just now, and decided to lead all first-year freshmen to visit the school this weekend, and the prefects must participate." Hermione continued, pushing the bacon plate towards them, " Harry, are you coming too?"

Before Harry could answer, a tall dark girl with long braids strode up to him.

"Hello, Angelina." Everyone greeted hurriedly.

"Hello, how was your summer?" she said briskly, and before anyone else could answer, she added, "You know, I've been chosen to be captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team!"

"Great," said Harry, grinning at her, and it was the best news he'd heard since back at Hogwarts.

He suspects that Angelina might not be as chattery as Oliver Wood when she cheers the players on, which is a good thing.

Ron and Colin also stopped to look at her. The captain of the Quidditch team was the most popular figure in the House.

Especially when the academy Quidditch team is about to start selection, Angelina has the final say.

"Oliver is gone, we need a new goalkeeper." Angelina did not disappoint everyone's expectations, and said directly, "The selection will be held at five o'clock in the afternoon this Friday, and I hope all the team members can be there, okay, ha Li? This way we can see if the newcomer can cooperate well with everyone."

"No problem!" said Harry hastily.

"Can we visit, too?" Colin asked.

"Of course, those who want to visit can gather at the venue, or even directly sign up for selection." Angelina said, looking at the thin and thin Colin, "However, your body type is not suitable for goalkeepers. By the way, Ivan , are you coming too?"

"I'll forget it, you know, I'm afraid of heights!" Ai Wen said, "However, I will visit!"

"Alright then!" Angelina waved her hand and turned to leave.

"I almost forgot Wood was gone!" said Hermione, finishing her own bread.

"Hermione, Harry and I discussed it last night, sitting here, you were next to me." Ron said, "I didn't expect Angelina to succeed Wood as captain, she is the most qualified .”

Chapter 929 Year 0.W.Ls of Fifth Grade

"Really? Have you discussed it?" Hermione said lightly. Like Ivan, he didn't care much about Quidditch. "I may not have noticed, um, Wood's departure will bring great harm to the team." big impact, right?"

"I think so," said Harry, picking up a piece of bread. "He's a good keeper."

"It wouldn't be bad to get a little fresh blood, though, would it?" said Ron. "By the way, Evan, your new broom?"

"No big problem. You can make one before the selection. If you want to make a large batch, you have to wait for a while."

Just then, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoops, hundreds of owls flew in from the upper windows, and they fell to all parts of the auditorium, bringing letters and parcels to their owners, and at the same time brought water The beads were sprinkled on the heads of the breakfast eaters.

Apparently, it was raining heavily outside.

Ivan received today's "Hogwarts Wizarding News", he glanced at it and handed the newspaper to Hermione.

After a while, Hedwig brought back the reply letter from his parents, and at the same time, there was a large bag of candy.

Aiwen's mother prepared a lot, enough for Aiwen to distribute to everyone for good relations and so on. These Muggle candies are very popular. Judging from what she said in the letter, she is very happy for Aiwen to become a boy student union Chairman proud.

"I like this Muggle brand of chocolate!" said Ron, popping the candy into his mouth.

"Then you can take a few more dollars!"

While Alvin read the letter, Hermione frantically moved the orange juice aside to make room for a barn owl with a soggy copy of the Daily Prophet in its beak.

"Why are you still ordering that thing?" said Harry angrily, thinking of Seamus again, when Hermione put a Knut in the little leather purse on the owl's foot, and the owl flapped away, "I don't bother with that, it's a pile of rubbish."

"Better find out what the enemy is saying," said Hermione solemnly.

She unfolded the newspaper and kept herself behind until everyone had finished their breakfast before reappearing.

"Nothing!" she said simply. "Nothing was said."

"There's nothing new about Rita either!" Ivan said, putting down the "Hogwarts Magic News".

At this time, Professor McGonagall distributed the schedules one by one along the table.

Aiwen hurriedly stood up and took this opportunity to tell her that he was planning to organize activities on weekends to lead the first-year students to familiarize themselves with the campus.

In addition to being the dean of Gryffindor, Professor McGonagall is also the vice-principal of the school, and she is responsible for all such daily affairs.

"I think there should be no problem. Although the school does not have such a precedent, your idea is good. It is indeed necessary to help freshmen get familiar with the campus, and it is also within the scope of the student union chairman's responsibility." Professor McGonagall said, lowering his voice. "By the way, Professor Umbridge didn't talk to you, did he?"

"No!" Ivan shook his head, but it was a matter of time.

Considering Aiwen's identity and the strength he showed last night, it is impossible for Umbridge to let Aiwen go.

Regardless of whether it is to show off or win over, she will talk to Ai Wen alone.

"Okay, Aiwen, although I shouldn't say such things as a professor, I must remind you..."

While Ivan was talking with Professor McGonagall, Harry, Hermione, Ron, and Colin were studying the newly issued curriculum.

"Too bad our first session was Defense Against the Dark Arts with that scary woman," said Colin.

"What is this? Compared with today's class in fifth grade, you are pretty lucky. You just need to endure one class." Ron sighed and waved the timetable in his hand lightly, "History of Magic, two classes Potions class, Divination class, two Defense Against the Dark Arts classes, Binns, Snape, Trelawney, and that woman named Umbridge, all on the same day! I hope Fred Speed ​​up with George and get the new quick-acting skipping candies out."

"Don't tell me there's something wrong with my ears?" said Fred, who had just arrived with Jocha and was sitting next to Harry. "The Hogwarts prefects don't want to skip class, do they?"

"Look how unlucky we are today," grumbled Ron, shoving his timetable under Fred's nose. "I've never had such a bad Monday."

"That's right, buddy," said Fred, looking over the timetable. "This is the worst timetable I've ever seen. If you want, you can have some nosebleed nougat, it's cheap."

"Why cheap?" Ron asked suspiciously. Fred and George's products were very popular, and they always marked their prices clearly.

Other than Ivan getting a bunch of giveaways every year, there's no way for anyone else to get prank products for free from them, not even a discount.

It also included Ron, their own brother.

"Because the nosebleed will keep flowing, and finally you will shrink into a ball. We haven't researched the antidote yet." George said and began to eat a piece of smoked fish, "I suspect that the seeds of the poisonous bean sprouts are put too much Already!"

"Thanks," said Ron sullenly, pocketing the timetable. "I guess I'll go to class."

"Speaking of quick-acting skipping sugar," said Hermione, glaring at Fred and George sternly, "you can't post an ad on the Gryffindor bulletin board for experimenters."

"Who said that?" said George, looking surprised.

"Ivan and I decided after research." Hermione glared at him, then added, "And Ron."

"It has nothing to do with me," Ron said quickly.

Hermione turned her head and glared at him angrily.Fred and George chuckled.

"You're going to change your tune before long, Hermione!" said Fred, slathering butter on a piece of toast. "Know why we've even thought about making skipping candies? The two of us But I was deeply impressed by the fifth grade..."

"Yeah, you're starting fifth grade today, and you're going to be begging us for skipping candy soon," George said.

"Why does fifth grade mean I need skipping sugar?" Hermione asked.

"The fifth grade is 0.W.Ls year." George waved his hand disapprovingly, as if he thought it was something that didn't need to be explained.

"so what?"

"That means you're going to have endless exams, don't you? They're going to grind your noses like a grindstone, and they'll tear the skin off the tip of your nose," said Fred gloatingly.

"Half our grade has a little problem just because of 0.w.Ls," said George cheerfully. ..."

Chapter 930 Future Plans

The 0.w.Ls exam held in June every year is a very important exam. This exam has an important impact on future work and can even determine a student's future fate to a certain extent. In order to pass the exam, fifth grade students must through the year.

The intense academic pressure and the fear brought about by the exam are not much worse than the terrible news of Voldemort's resurrection and return.

The fear of being dominated by 0.w.Ls exams can cause all kinds of situations in fifth grade students.

The nightmare was repeated year after year, and George was by no means exaggerating.

"It's nothing, Kenneth Tolle has boils all over his body, do you remember?" Fred recalled, with the same smirk on George's face.

"That's because you put big foam in his pajamas," said George.

"Oh!" said Fred, as if just remembering, "I forgot. It's hard to remember sometimes, isn't it?"

"All in all, fifth grade has been a nightmare year," George concluded. "Believe me, if you care more about your test scores, you're going to be nervous and on the verge of breaking down. Well, Fred and I After all, the spirit is not bad.”

"Yeah, later on, how do you say, each of you passed three OwLs." Ron said, "It's too few, and the results are not satisfactory. Percy got twelve certificates that year. Knowing you My mother was furious and said that the whole summer vacation, fortunately, the Quidditch World Cup held later saved you."

"True," said Fred nonchalantly, "but we feel our future lies outside academic achievement."

"Yes, before the start of this semester, we seriously discussed whether to go back to the seventh grade." George said happily, "Now that we have accumulated enough funds with the help of Ivan, we are going to A shop in Diagon Alley."

"Mrs. Weasley will not agree." Ivan said, he came back just to hear their conversation.

"It's really hard to talk about it with my mother, but it's not absolute. At the beginning of last summer vacation, the two of us gave her the money we earned in the past few years, and she seemed to agree. But, thanks to Percy, After he became the biggest fool in the world, mum directly refused our request to leave school early." George said sarcastically, "I really don't understand what's the use of NEWTs when we already have OwLs now, Become a fool like Percy?"

"But now that we're back, we won't waste our last year here." Fred said, looking around the auditorium with nostalgia, "We're going to use this year to do some market research and find out what Hogwarts are. Find out what the average student at Z wants to buy from a joke store, carefully identify all our previous research results, check each product, and then produce a popular product that actually meets everyone's needs."

More than a gag product, Fred and George have a flair for business and running a business, and they're going to make it.

If they have enough time, they can sell their products abroad and build a huge business map.

This is also the main reason why Aiwen has been cooperating with the two of them. He has funds and enough magic to support the research of various new products. He can even find sales channels for the Muggle world from his home, but there is only one problem.

He doesn't want to do this kind of thing, and he doesn't want to waste time on it.Even the "Hogwarts Wizarding News" was mainly supported by Hermione and the house elves at the beginning, but now it is almost all handed over to Lupine and other managers, and Ivan rarely intervenes.

But he also needs the influence brought by commercial expansion, such as this research to create a new flying broom because of this.

In this case, someone needs to do the daily management and operation, and Fred and George are the best candidates.

"Seriously, buddy, I think it's a complete waste of time for you to stay in school." Fred said, turning to look at Ivan, "You should go to Diagon Alley with the two of us, where This is the stage for you to display your talents, and we will definitely achieve a great cause."

Ivan once described the relevant prospects to them, and Fred and George deeply agreed.

"You want Ivan to go to Diagon Alley with you to open a joke shop?!" Hermione frowned at him, "I hope Ivan can do something more promising after graduation, such as running a newspaper or entering the Ministry of Magic... ..."

"Oh, Hermione, you sound like mother!" said Fred.

"Almost exactly the same!" George nodded, "You want Ivan to be a fool like Percy?"

"Is it too early to study these, I haven't figured out what to do yet!" Ivan said.

He actually planned to travel around the world in search of ancient magical relics after defeating Voldemort.

But this is all in the future, and no one knows what will happen in the future.

"You know, I haven't passed the OwLs yet, there's still time to think about it."

"By the way, can Ivan take the OwLs exam directly?" Hermione asked suddenly, "There seems to be no age requirement for the ordinary wizard level exam."

"Others definitely can't, Ivan can't tell!" Fred said, "Because he is Ivan!"

"Yeah, Miracle Worker!" George said with a smile. "Well, the two of us have to go to class. If we get there early, we might be able to sell a few stretch ears before the herbal medicine class."

After Fred and George left, the topic continued. Hermione seemed to want Ivan to take the OwLs exam in advance, and his strength was enough anyway.

She disagreed with most of what Fred and George said, except for one point, there is really no need for Ivan to stay in Hogwarts according to the normal trajectory, it is purely a waste of time, his current level is too much higher than others In terms of actual combat ability, even the students who are about to graduate are not as good as him.

If you can, go directly to the OwLs exams and enter the NEWTs courses...

Regarding this matter, you still need to ask Dumbledore. If the principal agrees, Ivan doesn't care.

There is no problem in actual combat, just pay attention to theoretical knowledge.

"You say, is this school year really bad? Because of those exams?" said Harry hesitantly, seeming intimidated by the scene Fred and George were painting.

"Oh, yes, they're telling the truth," said Ron, "OwLs are really important, affect what jobs you can apply for and so on, and we'll get job-seeking advice in the second term of this school year, Bill told me Yes, so that next year we can choose the NEWTs subjects we need."

"Well, do you know what you want to do when you graduate from Hogwarts?" Harry continued.

This is a very critical question, and he has thought about it many times before.

For a while, Harry even wanted to be a professional Quidditch player like Wood.
