Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

Chapter 563 Good Student Gabrielle

Generally speaking, Gabriel's magical strength is still very good, and she knows a lot of knowledge.

But in some respects, she really needs Ivan's care.

Perhaps because she has been under the protection of Furong, she lacks common sense.

It is somewhat similar to Hermione, and likes to study very much.

For example, they were in the class of protecting magical creatures, and Hagrid walked over to everyone.

In his arms was a precarious stack of boxes, each containing a massive snail.

Everyone else hurriedly moved away, but Gabriel actually took the initiative to look up.

Ai Wen quickly pulled her back. When a normal person sees such a terrifying monster, shouldn't the first reaction be to run away in fear? !

Facing a snail that could explode and burn people at any time, it is not a wise choice to take the initiative to go up to it.

Now, under Hagrid's careful raising, the remaining snails are about three feet long.

Every strength is astonishingly great, and they are no longer fleshy and colorless, but have grown a thick, shiny, off-white armor-like thing, which looks even stronger than the previous armor. thick.

They looked somewhere between giant scorpions and elongated crabs, but it was still impossible to tell where the heads and eyes were.

"Evan, what is this?" Gabriel asked in a low voice, with curiosity shining in her pale blue eyes.

"Fried-tailed snails!"

"I've never seen..."

"That's because they were bred by Hagrid himself!" Ivan said, "Okay, stay away from them now."

Hagrid put the shaking boxes on the ground and laid them out in front of everyone.

"I have studied carefully. The reason why the snails kill each other is because they have nowhere to release their excess energy."

Aiwen doubts this, isn't it because of their inherently murderous nature? !

"To solve this problem, every two students have to tie a snail with a rope and take it for a walk." Hagrid said, taking out a snail and showing it to Gabriel. Tried it in the morning class and it worked really well."

From his appearance, he wanted to give Gabriel a good impression. He knew that she was Madame Maxime's student.

Sure enough, Hagrid asked Ivan and Gabriel to help him demonstrate how to tie the rope to the snail.

"What are we going to do?" Gabriel asked, eager to try.

"Where to tie the rope, is it tied to its thorns, fried tail, or sucker?" Ivan said reluctantly.

"Chained in the middle!" said Hagrid, "you two need to wear dragonhide gloves as an extra precaution."

Under his bushy and shaggy eyebrows, his beetle-like black eyes shone with excitement.

He proudly explained to Gabriel the body structure of the snails, their living habits, places that need attention, and so on.

It can be seen that Hagrid is very proud of being able to breed a brand new species.

Gabriel did ask a lot of questions, too, much to Hagrid's delight.

A few minutes later, Alvin and Gabriel were walking on the lawn with a huge fried-tailed snail.

Every step is very difficult, the snails are extremely powerful, difficult to control, and they don't listen to their commands at all.

Instead, the two of them need to be on their toes at all times.

Every now and then, with a frightening crack, the snail's tail explodes, propelling it forward several meters, and even though the rope is long enough, Alvin and Gabriel have to sprint to keep up with the snail. Fried snails.

Being pulled by a whelk for a run is a unique experience.

As for the other students, many of them fell to the ground and struggled desperately to stand up.

If at this time, the snail suddenly turned around, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The lawn was in chaos, and Ivan saw Colin and Ginny being dragged forward by a bomb-tailed snail.

Everyone had a hard time, but Hagrid thought everyone was having a good time.

In fact, Gabriel may be the only one who is actually happier.

The girl ran around after the snail, giggling.

"They're quite interesting, aren't they?!" Gabriel said with a smile, "Hagrid is amazing. He can actually breed magical animals by himself. I've never heard of anyone doing it before. It's really amazing."

It is true that few people do this like Hagrid, because this kind of behavior is illegal, and the breeding process is very dangerous.

Take these fritter-tailed snails, for example, descendants of manticores and fire crabs.As the most dangerous magical animal, the manticore is not something that everyone dares to touch rashly. If it is not done well, it will easily die.

Of course, if the legality and danger are not taken into account, the snail is still of great research value from the perspective of species.

Gabriel obviously thought so, and she would never see such a magical creature in Beauxbatons.

Her brave studious spirit is not only reflected in the protection of magical creatures class, but also in other courses.

For example, in Snape's Potions class, although Snape exuded a cold and terrifying aura, she turned a blind eye to him and kept raising her hand before asking questions.

Maybe Beauxbatons' Potions professor liked it, but Snape definitely didn't.

In his class, there is a default rule that no questions are allowed.

He would write all the processes and materials for making potions on the blackboard, asking the students to bow their heads and study by themselves.

But there is obviously a problem. Most of the potion formulas and brewing steps that Snape wrote on the blackboard are different from those in the textbook. They are all optimized and improved by him. If they are placed outside, it will be absolutely amazing achievement.

But Snape wasn't going to explain to everyone how amazing this was, and young wizards didn't have the corresponding ability to discern.

They just had to do it, and understand for themselves why Snape improved so much in practice.

"Professor, I have learned this antidote formula before, and I didn't grind the moonstone into powder..."

"Obviously so, Miss Delacour!" said Snape icily. "You need to look through your Potions book again."

"But..." Gabriel wanted to continue to ask, it was not written like that in the textbook at all.

Ai Wen secretly pulled her, didn't this guy see the way other people looked at her? !

After Ivan stopped it, it didn't take long for Gabriel to raise her hand again. What Snape explained was completely different from what she had learned before.

Anyone who dared to interrupt Snape's lecture again and again would end badly in the end.

Everyone was sweating for Gabriel, this lovely cherub-like girl couldn't possibly be a match for Snape.

Fortunately, Snape was more scruples about Gabriel being Beauxbaton's student.His face was gloomy and terrifying, but he didn't say a lot, but chose to ignore Gabriel, just like he had always ignored Ivan and Hermione.

Unfortunately for the other Gryffindors, Snape had no qualms about them.

In order not to let Gabriel ask these questions and challenge Snape's bottom line, Ivan had to explain it to her after class.

Chapter 564 Detecting the Wand and Interviewing

After the Potions class, Gabriel and Ivan began to go to the library for self-study at night.

They met Hermione there, and to Ivan's surprise, Gabriel and Hermione got along very well.

The two often discussed homework together and exchanged knowledge of Hogwarts and Beauxbatons.

Or simply throw Ivan aside, muttering something in a low voice.

Ai Wen couldn't talk about this kind of girl topic at all.

Many times, Ivan felt as if they were talking about himself, because the two kept looking at him with a smile.

But it is undeniable that the relationship between the two of them is progressing very quickly, even faster than Ivan and Gabriel.

Later, Hermione simply took the initiative to lead Gabriel to the Gryffindor common room and introduce her to everyone.

Gabriel has a good personality and is welcomed by almost everyone and integrated into the atmosphere of Gryffindor College.

The boys all want to find out from her about her sister Furong, her hobbies and so on.

Ivan doubts that if these guys knew Furong's character, they would not like her as much as they do now.

When sending Gabriel back to the carriage at night, Ivan and Hermione met Fleur several times.

The content of the chats in those few times was very irritating, such as listening to Furong complaining that Hogwarts was too cold and the food was too greasy.

All in all, she didn't quite adapt to life at Hogwarts and didn't like it here.

This made Hermione's impression of her worse and worse, and later she didn't even get close to Beauxbaton's carriage.

Like Fleur, it was Ron who didn't adapt to life at Hogwarts.

After becoming a warrior, his life has undergone tremendous changes.

From a person who was originally unknown, he suddenly became the focus of everyone's attention, and all his actions were watched.

This transformation wasn't for everyone, especially since Ron wasn't popular with anyone other than Gryffindor.

Everyone is full of malice towards him now. Small things and small mistakes that might not be mentioned at first may become a topic of discussion in the school at any time, and they will be used as a reason to satirize Ron, or from time to time. Ordinary Ron Compared with the excellent Cedric, this feeling is really uncomfortable.

Being a warrior is an opportunity for Ron, but it is also a challenge.

Judging from the current situation, Ron's performance was very bad, and some people in Gryffindor began to express doubts about him.

But Ron himself didn't care about it, he felt good about himself.

His current situation is also much better than when Harry became a warrior in the original plot. At least Ivan, Harry, Hermione and the rest of the Weasley family supported him, and he didn’t dream of Voldemort, Scar Pain and Sirius Things like that are distracting.

Still, on Friday morning, Ron and Harry got into a fight with Malfoy and the others.

The reason is that Malfoy got inspiration from Hermione's SPEW badge, and he transformed it into a badge that supported the warriors Cedric and K satirizing Ron, and all Slytherin students wore it on their chests.

The fight was very fierce, and Harry and Ron were seriously injured due to the outnumbered.

In the end, due to Snape's intervention, Gryffindor was deducted [-] points instead, and the two were fined to stay in school for a week of labor.

Ron looked furious, ready to take revenge and give Malfoy a lesson.

However, in Ivan's view, instead of engaging in such a meaningless entanglement with Malfoy, it is better to learn a few more spells.

"You two should calm down, Malfoy did it on purpose to make you angry!" said Hermione.

At this time, they were having lunch.

Hermione was a little late in the morning because she was discussing the "Hogwarts Wizardry News" with Ivan, and missed the fight.

"To make us angry on purpose?!" Harry said angrily, "That's great, he achieved his goal!"

"I'd love to learn that spell with Professor Moody, turning Malfoy into a ferret!" said Ron.

He took out his wand and imitated Moody and waved it vigorously, sparks came out.

"Put away your wand, don't forget you have to test the wand this afternoon." Hermione looked at Ron dissatisfied.

Ron muttered something under his breath, and put away his wand.

Because the wand is the most important equipment for the warriors in the game, it is necessary to check whether its functions and performance are complete and intact.

Professor McGonagall just came to inform that according to the arrangement of the Ministry of Magic and the school, Mr. Ollivander will inspect the wands of the warriors this afternoon.

At that time, the Warriors will also accept media interviews.

In fact, Ivan already knew about this two days ago, and he received a letter from Professor Lupine.

In addition to the "Daily Prophet", the Ministry of Magic also invited the "Hogwarts Newspaper of Witchcraft and Wizardry" for this special interview.

With many people accusing the Ministry of Magic of inaction due to World Cup attacks and unfavorable capture of vampires, the Ministry hopes to focus on publicizing the upcoming tournament to divert public attention.

Under the management of Professor Lupine, the "Hogwarts Ministry of Magic" founded by Aiwen is now the newspaper with the second largest circulation in the British wizarding world after the "Daily Prophet", and its influence cannot be ignored.

Naturally, this time the interview task fell on Ivan, Harry, Hermione, and Colin.

Professor Lu Ping originally planned to send someone to help, but Ivan refused. He thought they could do a good job.

This morning, Ivan was discussing this matter with Hermione, and the two of them will complete this report.

They already had the general idea, and Harry and Colin would be there to shoot.

After lunch, Ivan and Colin, who had no classes in the afternoon, went back to the lounge for a while, and then went to the room on the second floor with their cameras to wait.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione still have Defense Against the Dark Arts classes, and it will take a while to come over.

When the two of them entered, someone was already inside.

This is a smaller classroom, and most desks have been pushed to the back of the room, leaving a large space in the middle.
