A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 569 Greedy Snake
In the ancient rune office——

"I heard that you've spent a lot of money recently?"

Varun sat on the small bench and replied feebly.

"Seriously, how many clubs have you invested in?"

"Hmph." Varun looked around with his little hands behind his back, but he didn't look at Felix in front of him.

"Still spending money to write an autobiography? Looking for the student who ran the tabloid?" A newspaper trembled in front of Varun.

Varun was dumbfounded, as if all its little secrets had been dug out?

"It's time," said Felix gravely.He sat opposite Varen, shaking his palm, and jumped out of the ring—Varen opened his mouth wide in surprise, it seemed to be a—a deformed snake?
Varun stared at the little guy in front of him. It looked like a green snake with an outrageously large head. Ever since it appeared, he had been swimming around it happily with his mouth wide open. Varun stretched out his hand suddenly and picked it up. The tail trembled, and the little snake bounced twice in mid-air like a flexible rope, and opened its mouth to spit out a copper nut.

Varen's eyes widened. Is this a snake that spits out money?

"This is a piggy bank," Felix said, "today I will teach you two new concepts, savings and interest." Varen, who was enjoying himself, stopped and slowly turned his head to look at him, "Pig ?”

"To put it simply, it is to save your pocket money and put it in one place, which is here—" Felix pointed to the little snake that was still twisting and twisting, "I specially prepared it for you, You can put part of your treasure on it."

The little snake, which was essentially an alchemical item, nodded cooperatively, its mouth gaping wide.

"Hey?" Varen looked at Felix in confusion, why put the money in the little snake, I have my own pocket for money.

"That's different," Felix said persuasively, "Think about it, the money in your pocket will only get less and less, isn't it?" Valen nodded blankly, "That's it." Felix raised his voice to make his tone more convincing, "But if you put money in the snake, after a while, it will become more money."

Varen stared blankly at Felix, then looked down at the little snake he was holding in his hand.This is still a baby?
"Haw?"

"How much can it change, um... this is a result of dynamic changes. Specifically, it will change with the time and amount you store. For example, you stuff a gold Galleon and plug into it Ten pieces, the result is definitely different, but a difference of ten times. And if you save it for one day and ten days, the result will be different again, and the difference is still ten times. You can calculate by yourself, how many times have you doubled in total? ?”

Varen lowered his head and waved his fingers. After a while, he raised his head and looked at Felix in confusion.

"A hundred times." Felix revealed the answer.

Warren looked shocked.

"That's right, that's it." Felix said with a smile, "Don't worry, how can I take your money? I just gave you a way to make money, which is an untold secret... Your money is still yours. Yes, just transfer from one place to another, and the little snake will still be in your hands, how about it, is it a good deal?"

Varun thought for a while, as if that was the case... It nodded.

"Very well, let's discuss a specific value." Felix stopped and asked uncertainly, "How much money do you have?"

Varen looked down at his small pocket, it only knew that there were a lot, and after using it a little, there was still a lot.

"I'll count for you," Felix said flatly.Seeing that there was no response from the other side for a long time, he said to himself for a while, "Save money, interest, money begets money..."

A fierce struggle broke out in Varen's heart:

Will the big devil cheat its money?
Its pocket money was given by the Great Demon King.

The big devil is very cunning!

But the little snake was still in his hands.

The big devil is still very cunning.

But if you put it in the little snake, the money will become more...

Varen hardly realized that the sky was getting dark, and he was entangled in his heart for a long time. Finally, he closed his eyes and nodded solemnly.

"Crash."

"Crash."

"Crash."

Varun looked at his little pocket, and instantly felt that he was penniless. Then he looked at the small pile of golden Galleons on the ground, and the feeling of happiness returned.

"In conversion, there are a total of 2007 gold Galleons." Felix said in amazement, "Well, how about we deposit two thousand Galleons in it?"

Varun watched him silently.It wants to hit people.

"It's a good deal. Let me do the math for you. It involves very complicated mathematical formulas... You haven't learned arithmetic yet? Ah, what a pity."

It was completely dark, and Varen was holding the numerical formulas that took up most of the parchment, feeling a little dazed, "Whoa!" A small pile of Galleons on the ground was swallowed by the snake with its bloody mouth wide open.

"Hi!!!"

Varen grabbed the little snake's neck and shook it vigorously, it regretted it!But it was too late, the little snake piggy bank belched, and opened its mouth to spit out seven gold coins.

Varun looked at the money on the ground, picked it up one by one, and stuffed them pitifully into his small pocket.

"It's better to put the little snake piggy bank in..."

"Ha!"

Varun hugged the little snake tightly, and the shiny black hair on his body exploded.

"It's yours, it's all yours." Felix said with a smile, "It's just the last step. Let's set a date. If you take it out before that time, you won't be able to get extra Galleons."

Varun stretched out his hand, and hooked him tremblingly.

Waking up from the cradle bed the next day, Varun opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling in a daze. Found the snake that ate its treasure in one corner.

Varun let out a long breath, and his small shoulders relaxed.

It slipped out of the bedroom with the piggy bank, and looked around the office for a while, huh?Isn't the big devil at home?It walked to the sofa, jumped vigorously, jumped to the favorite position of the big devil, and began to roll on it.After rolling contentedly for 2 minutes, it suddenly became worried and looked under the sofa in fear.

The little snake coiled itself in a circle, lazily spit out the letter.

Valen was relieved.Today is the weekend, and it guesses where the big devil is visiting. It takes out its own magic painting and points on it. The protagonist in the game, Xixiu, has gathered four gemstones, each of which can release a powerful gem. Ancient magic, and—at Valen's urging—Sniff wore a handsome cloak.

But today this game seems not so attractive. Every once in a while, Valen has to check to see if the snake is still there. This snake always likes to run around. Regular movement", Varen didn't quite understand, probably meaning that he wouldn't run too far.

But when the greedy snake disappeared from his sight, Valen still felt flustered.Every time it took the trouble to jump down from the sofa, pull out the greedy snake hiding in the corner and put it in front of its eyes.

At noon, Varun was staggering and ready to go out.After thinking about it, it brought the greedy snake with it.Never let it out of your sight.

It hid the snake under its little yellow hat, and wandered around in the castle. On the way, it met Mafalda who was selling tabloids and looking for materials. A Garen, just looking at it makes me sad.

Varen can be regarded as experiencing the hardships of life, and finally it passed by Mafalda.Warren clenched his fist, and it had already thought about it—it would stop buying newspapers until it had saved enough money, and it could read newspapers.

After some searching, it found an acquaintance.

"Ha!"

Astoria Greengrass lowered his head and saw Warren greeting him friendly.The two got together and began to read the newspaper.Varen quickly finished reading one page and turned the page in a hurry.It squinted its eyes, and the reading speed of this defeated opponent was a bit slow...

Forget it, be considerate~
"Don't worry," Astoria said earnestly, "Look at the above, it says that twelve people from the Ministry of Magic have come, and they will stay in the school for two full weeks. Training—it shows that the Ministry of Magic attaches great importance to the safety of students, see, this is what the analysis comes out of."

Varen tilted his head to look at her, and Astoria was a little puzzled.

Varun took out a piece of parchment from his small pocket and quietly handed it to her. "What is this? Well, you want me to calculate this formula? Let me see, I can't trouble me..." Astoria looked down at the dense mathematical formulas, his eyes circling.

"It's a bit difficult... It's not my fault, I didn't choose arithmetic and divination."

Although he didn't get an answer, Varun finally felt relieved. It wasn't that it wasn't smart enough, but that it was the devil's strongman who made it hard for him.Separated from Astoria, it happily carried the snake for a walk. There was a large circle of people in the hall, and Filch stood in the doorway imposingly, holding a wand in his hand.

Harry, Ron and Hermione stood in the crowd watching.

"What grade is it in?" a new student asked.

"Seventh grade." Ron said, "They learned apparation in sixth grade last school year. This is an opportunity for them to get their certificates in advance." He finally revealed his true intentions, "You said ——If you master Apparation at a young age, is it possible to get a certificate?"

Several students around looked at him in awe.

"I think it's difficult," Hermione analyzed, "According to the regulations, you must be an adult—"

"But now it's a special situation, isn't it?" Harry asked, and he was looking forward to it, "This way we don't have to go to Hogsmeade in a carriage." Besides, it's much more convenient to see Glop, he took a look Hermione, Hermione thought of that too.

The three of them still couldn't escape Hagrid's kind invitation, and went to Grapp's temporary residence on a weekend.The three of them were on guard, and re-practiced all kinds of defensive spells before going, and they were shocked by what they saw—Glop was sitting on a haystack, holding a huge half-eaten pumpkin in one hand, and a skilled hand in the other. They couldn't believe that they watched half an episode of The Lion King and the second game video of the competition in a cave.

Gropp was so excited when he saw Harry, he yelled at him, and they guessed for a long time based on the pictures on the magic projector, and finally realized that he actually wanted to see Harry's Patronus Charm.

Hagrid also bought a magic radio for entertainment. When he came out of the cave, Ron said in disbelief: "Did I get a confusion spell? I heard 'a pot of hot love' in the cave, next to it And a pair of feet over twenty inches ticking the beat!"

"Don't worry, your head is safe," said Hermione, who hadn't wanted to come, but now it's a good deal. "We can have a little faith in Hagrid's dreams, can't we? Get ready for a sixteen-foot the ranger?"

At that time, Harry felt that he could find an opportunity to persuade Hagrid not to worry, and it would be okay to spend two years... Unfortunately, he didn't get the opportunity.Snape has gotten worse recently and has been picking on him. He's not sure if it's because Snape has seen through his thoughts. Last school year, Professor Hemp accidentally mentioned that Snape is a master of Legilimency.

In the auditorium, Varun slipped through the door through a pair of feet.Filch was about to stop him, but when he saw that it was Varen, his wrinkled old face immediately smiled brightly.Warren handed Mrs. Norris a small dried fish and slipped into the auditorium.

"My God, it's so skilled," Neville said in admiration.

At this time, there was a piercing scream from inside, the students in the hall froze for a few seconds, and a short and fat woman came out.

"It's Umbridge." Harry said immediately. He had seen this woman arrogantly, and seen her being carried out of school in embarrassment, but he didn't expect to see this woman again in school. He thought Umbridge was expelled from the Ministry of Magic following Fudge's downfall.

"She's learned to keep a low profile," said Ron, and Harry knew what he meant. Umbridge was wearing a tight bright green wizard robe. Although it was conspicuous, it was very different from the previous dazzling pink low key.

"Filch, I just saw a big rat," Umbridge choked.

"It's called Warren, and it's Professor Hype's pet, and it's not a mouse, it's a Niffler." Filch said dissatisfied.

Umbridge's body froze, and she noticed Filch's dissatisfied attitude, and immediately put on a sweet smile on her slack wide chin, "So that's it, the little guy looks cute, and you like it too." Cats, Mr. Filch? I like cats, I love cats so much—”

She asked, pointing to Mrs. Norris, who was lying at Filch's feet, gnawing her head down on a small dried fish.

"She has a name, Norris," said Filch stiffly.Umbridge shut his mouth.At this moment, Filch suddenly shouted at the crowd: "Be careful!" He walked into the crowd wheezing and panting, and the surrounding students immediately scattered to the side, revealing a bewildered junior student.

There was a limp piece of cauldron cake stuck to the floor at his feet.

"Pick it up yet!" Filch yelled again, which the student did almost immediately.Filch muttered, "It's going to get me in trouble...hehe...defile the castle...don't touch it!" he suddenly yelled at a student who took out his wand and pointed it at the floor.

"Let me do it," Filch blushed and pointed at the remaining stains on the floor with his own wand. "Clean it up!" he yelled.

The cake crumbs on the floor disappeared immediately, Filch grinned, and walked back to the auditorium door step by step.

Umbridge was very surprised, she knew Filch was a Squib, but now he can use magic?And those clubs with weird names, that newspaper, she felt that Hogwarts had become totally unfamiliar.

"Umbridge?" At this time, another young man came out of the auditorium, "Professor Tofty let the sixth graders in." Umbridge glanced at him, "I was just about to say, little Avery .”

The young man's eyebrows furrowed immediately.

The sixth-year students began to gather spontaneously, and Harry saw Chaser Katie Bell mingling with the crowd, walking into the auditorium with a look of excitement on her face.Walking towards them was the seventh-grade students who had finished the assessment, and Angelina Johnson, the captain of the Gryffindor team, was beaming with joy.

"Did it work?" Katie asked, taking advantage of the passing opportunity.

Angelina gave her a thumbs up.

In the auditorium, the two middle dining tables had been temporarily moved elsewhere and replaced by two rows of wooden rings, spaced about ten feet apart.A dozen or so adult wizards stood near the wooden circle, as did the four heads of Hogwarts.

"Good morning, everyone." Wicky Tecross stood up to speak, attracting the attention of all the sixth graders, "I hope you saw the notice posted in the foyer before you came in. Part of the manpower is to hope that all Hogwarts students can master the Apparition or Apparition required by the Ministry of Magic, Ms. Burns believes that this can effectively reduce casualties..."

Today is the first day. My colleagues and I will focus on checking your studies. Judging from your previous performance, you are doing well.I have to thank the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor this year, I know how tiring it is to apparate people..."

"Then," he waved his wand, "students who have mastered apparation, or who think they have mastered it, stand up, and we will complete the assessment of these people first..."

"Don't make trouble." Felix said to Varen on his shoulders, "Let's watch the fun." He squinted, and Umbridge and Avery reluctantly entered from outside the auditorium. A bit harsh.
