Chapter 125 The Twins
Chapter 125 The Twins
Alice was stopped in the corridor.Looking at the two tall and thin Weasleys who looked exactly alike, she felt a bit of a headache before the other could speak.
Before the two brothers did something funny, she pre-empted it: "If you have something to do with me, don't play the 'who is George, who is Fred' set."
The two Weasleys looked at each other, raised their hands, and made a gesture of surrender to Alice.
"I'm Freys," said Fred. "As expected of Professor Hall."
"I'm George," said George. "You've got a way with us, even if you don't teach."
Alice hid her embarrassment with a smile.She knew the twins were talking about coupons.
It is said that because of the coupons, they will be locked at home for a period of time every holiday to complete the new "May Three".The same is true in school. Although Mrs. Weasley will not deprive the children of their childhood, she will always calculate in advance and buy the right amount of test papers so that the twins will not be too "leisurely".
"About the amulet," said Fred. "We have some questions for you."
George added: "We had a little bit of trouble making it."
"Production? I remember that the task of the fourth grade is only to write a thesis, and there is no need for substantive production." Alice looked at the two brothers suspiciously.
Because there are OWLs and NEWTs exams, she gives different learning tasks to each grade.The first grade has no task, the second grade makes the simplest amulet, the third grade amulet needs to be able to resist at least three evil spells, the fourth and sixth grades only need to write relevant papers, the fifth and seventh grades are to do sea tactics and prepare for the battle with all their strength take an exam.
"We want to make an amulet that resists petrification." Fred stated the purpose straight to the point.
Alice immediately thought of the little things the two brothers sold at school, and of course the most important thing was their failed products that claimed to be resistant to petrochemicals.
"The premise of solving the problem is to find the problem and analyze the problem. Unfortunately, I don't know the real cause of the petrification, so naturally I can't make an effective amulet."
"Merlin!" Fred hugged his head with a headache, "Reputation, our reputation!"
"Okay, thank you very much." George shook his head helplessly, pulling Fred to leave.
"Although I don't object to students starting a small business, after all, I have done it before, but have you spent too much time on it?" Alice stopped the two from leaving, "Maybe you can do it this weekend. Talk to me? Don't worry, I just want to know your real thoughts."
It's rare to study hard once, not only did you not get an answer, but you also gained a session of psychological counseling?Both George and Freys froze in place.
Regardless of the two, Alice walked towards the cellar humming a song.
……
After a month, I picked up a pen to write a diary again, and it felt like a lifetime away. (what am I talking about?)
Except for the original owner, will the handwriting written by others disappear?No wonder Ginny gave me the diary without her handwriting on it.But that's fine, I don't want others, especially students, to see the contents of my diary, it would be embarrassing to think about it.
It was already more than half of the semester when I took over the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and now the semester is coming to an end after only a few classes, I am really sad.However, I have also proved with facts that the so-called curse of "that person" is nonsense.But when I corresponded with my friend, she told me that it was only because I only had to teach for a few months before the curse took effect and I was about to leave.
Alas, I have to cherish the few time in class.
-
Obviously, the temperature is gradually rising, and summer has already begun to appear, but the cellar is still cool.The faint cool breeze with water vapor often makes people in it calm down and devote themselves to work.
After writing the diary, Alice didn't put it away like last time.She rested her chin and looked at the paper quietly, as if she wanted to wait for the writing to disappear before she felt relieved.
It took a month to open the notebook again. On the one hand, it was to eliminate the possible suspicion of the diary. On the other hand, it would be the best if the Horcrux of the Dark Lord could be the first to lose his temper.
Sensing the overly tense atmosphere in the room, Alice turned her head slightly and found Snape's tense face.
Speaking of which, apart from that giant python, he hadn't really faced the Dark Lord directly.Just like that, the horror and cruelty of "that person" left a deep shadow on her.
For a moment, Alice couldn't imagine what kind of stress resistance and dangers she would face as a subordinate of the Dark Lord, as a double agent.
Looking back at the diary, his handwriting began to gradually disappear.Then, as expected, a line of "Tom Riddle" appeared.
[Hi, are you the current Defense Against the Dark Arts professor? ]
Snape's breathing suddenly increased, and Alice tried to hold her right hand as hard as she could, and slowly wrote down her answer on the paper.
[Hello, I am the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, Alice Hall.What are you? ]
[I am a memory of Tom Riddle.You can consider me your student (albeit a student from 50 years ago)]
[Nice to meet you.As a student, being able to keep your own memories in a journal is truly amazing.I really want to get to know you now. ]
After being patted on the shoulder, Alice turned her head and saw Snape's disapproving expression.
[I would also like to see my own body, but unfortunately I am just a forgotten memory. ]
If she didn't know the truth, Alice would have softened her heart by now.A young student 50 years ago, a forgotten memory, will always arouse women's affection.
[If I made such a cool diary, I would never forget it. I guess your body may not be able to get the diary back for some reason.After all, as you know, it is difficult for students who have graduated to go back to school. ]
[I hope so……]
Good progress, but don't be impatient.At least you can't talk about the secret room for the first time.
[I have class soon and have to leave.Thank you for chatting with me, may I call you Tom? ]
[Sure, I guess I could call you Alice too? 50 years is too lonely, you are one of the few willing to chat with me. ]
After that, I had to find a way to slowly lead the topic to the secret room. Looking at the gradually disappearing handwriting on the diary, Alice was in trouble.In order not to be abrupt and not arouse suspicion, wouldn't she have to talk to this diary every day from now on?
Just as she was struggling, there was a knock on the door.
Alice closed the diary immediately, and tucked the book under a dozen thick parchments.
After watching Alice hide the diary, Snape asked, "Who?"
"Harry Potter." There was obvious anxiety in the voice, "I heard that Professor Hall is here."
Alice and Snape looked at each other, and both saw the surprise in their eyes.It's just that Alice was simply surprised.Snape was a little upset.
Alice always liked to stay in the cellar when the weather was hot, and the coolness was the main reason for her choice.Also, the head of Slytherin's office tends to keep out overly enthusiastic students.
Unsurprisingly, the students showed great enthusiasm for the amulets.Unexpectedly, the enthusiasm was a little too much, just like the Weasley twins.In order to be able to retain a little of her own private space, Alice chose to sneak out in the cellar.
It was amazing, she sighed as she watched Harry enter.Although I don't know what the reason is, but at the risk of being deducted, I took the initiative to find the professor I hated, can I only say that it is Gryffindor?
Soon, after listening to Harry's explanation, Alice's discomfort at being disturbed was forgotten.
Stepping on the tail of spring, before summer, she got good news: the snake language translator has been completed.
White smoke gushed out from the center of the crystal ball continuously, and was blocked by the wall of the ball. It had no choice but to fill the entire crystal ball, turning the transparent crystal ball abruptly into white.
Harry looked at the crystal ball that had been used for a month, and asked the question that Hermione asked her all the time before leaving the lounge: "Does this smoke have any special effect? Is it the point of translation and transformation? How does it work?" of?"
This series of academic questions didn't suit Harry at all, and Hermione asked him to ask them.
"No." Denied without thinking, Alice asked a little strangely, "You know this is for sale in the end, right?"
"Yes." Harry whispered back, looking uneasily at the silent Snape.
"Stupid," Snape said flatly.
Before being spotted, Harry lowered his head, hiding the roll of his eyes.
"Okay, okay." Alice smiled and let Harry sit down, "Do you know the tricks of doing business and selling things?"
Sitting stiffly on the sofa, Harry replied uncertainly: "Is the quality of the product better?"
"Of course this is very important." Alice explained quite proudly, "but what is more important is to make customers feel that the quality is good."
"Let customers think?"
Alice picked up the crystal ball, pointed to the white mist and asked, "If there is no white mist, what do you think it is?"
"Uh, a crystal ball?" After thinking for a while, Harry immediately added, "A crystal ball that can record and translate Parsel's language."
"What if there is white fog?"
"I don't know..." Harry scratched his head, "The white mist is probably some kind of special spell."
"This is white mist, water vapor." Alice carefully placed the crystal ball on the table, "Keep it mysterious and increase the difficulty of external product development, so that customers can feel that the money is worth it."
"This, this isn't..." Snape stared at Harry, and swallowed the rest of his sentence.
Alice said for him: "This is not a deception. You can understand the white mist as an ordinary decoration, but customers regard it as the core technology."
Harry looked at the blonde witch in front of him in astonishment, feeling that Alice was different from the scholar and old pedant he had imagined.
