Wizards of Hogwarts

Knocking the stone wall bricks one by one, Elrohir stepped into Diagon Alley. As Christmas is approaching, sparkling Christmas decorations can be seen everywhere in the Wizarding Shopping Alley.

Giving Christmas gifts to professors is a little different from giving gifts to classmates.

Elrohir once learned from some gossip that there was an old bee in school whose most anticipated Christmas gift was a pair of warm wool socks. It was not clear who the old bee was referring to.

But the thought of giving Dean Snape a pair of woolen socks

The scene was too beautiful to be imagined.

What's more, wool socks still have a special meaning in the UK, representing family and affection. The relationship between Elrohir and Dean Snape is not that close, so wool socks are not suitable.

In addition, as Elrohir's most respected school professor, Professor McGonagall also gave him too much education and inspiration in the art of transfiguration.Although in Professor McGonagall's view, this is just the duty of a teacher, Elrohir cannot just use any ordinary gifts to deal with it. Christmas gifts are rare items that can express gratitude.

Elrohir touched his pocket. After the owl consumption just now, he still had 5 Galleons and 10 Sickles left in his personal coffers, as well as some Nats.

The amount of money is said to be too much, but it is said to be quite a bit less.

After thinking about it, Elrohir first went to the magic pharmacy on the north side of Diagon Alley. The raw materials necessary for making potions are sold here. Almost every Hogwarts student comes here to do some shopping before the start of school.

"Bat spleen and bat wings. If these are used as gifts, Dean Snape will break the ice and sink them into the Black Lake as soon as he returns to school. This is because I was born in Slytherin. Universal antidote. Stone, well, the meaning is not very good. Although Dean Snape may not care about that, let's take dragon liver as an alternative for now, 16 ounces per ounce. Creatures like dragons must be in such a miserable state, their livers have been taken. Sell ​​whatever you want, oh, there is also Dragon Blood Flobber Caterpillar Mucus and Hoklap Juice. They are all cheap Silk Bird Feathers that the school can provide. Each three galleons can be used to make veritaserum and memories. The potion, hiss, is a bit expensive. Fairy wings cost one galleon and two pieces. It can be used to make beautification. Dean Snape’s face doesn’t need beautification at all.”

Elrohir soon discovered a very magical potion material sold openly in the pharmacy.

Wangchuan River

They still sell this stuff in pharmacies. How is this translated?

20 galleons for a small medicine bottle, this is too expensive.

Elrohir reluctantly looked away from the water of the Forgotten River and began to look at the other ingredients for the potion.

"What the hell are they selling black beetle eyeballs, dragonfly breasts, leeches, and caterpillars? There are no high-quality roses or rose essential oils even for passing specimens. Do you want to work part-time as a massage parlor?"

Elrohir discovered another item that he was very interested in. It was crystal white, about sixteen or seventeen inches in length, and its surface was covered with spiral magic patterns. A magic horn made of unicorn horn, which had an inspiring effect. Human heart, weak effect of dispelling darkness, each worth 21 galleons.

Gee

Elrohir looked at the magic horn carefully for a while. If he still had enough money in his pocket, he could buy this thing as a gift to his father. Such a magic prop does not require any magic power to activate, and the most important thing is that it is indeed very special. Suitable for collection.

Unfortunately, Elrohir is short of money and Elf can't afford it for the time being.

"I can't afford the suitable raw materials, and the affordable raw materials are not suitable. It's too difficult to choose Dean Snape's gift." Elrohir sighed and walked out of the magic pharmacy, "Or give Snape a gift." Dean Nepp has a bottle of shampoo, and he also gave Draco a can of hairspray anyway. Speaking of which, that boy Draco puts on a lot of hairspray. He is running all the way towards the boy's bald head. "

In the distant Hogwarts Castle, Dean Snape, who was setting up a logic level, suddenly sneezed loudly, almost causing the magic flame in front of him to go out of control.

On the other side of the Malfoy Manor, Draco, who was learning to fold origami cranes, also felt an inexplicable chill coming to his head, oh no, on his hair, and he couldn't help but shiver.

Speaking of hair, Elrohir remembered another thing, which was still a rumor.

It is rumored that the reason why Dean Snape has greasy shawl hair is because the Potter family once monopolized the shampoo market in the British wizarding world.

Well, considering Dean Snape's cold attitude towards Harry and his complicated emotions towards one of Harry's elders, Elrohir felt that this rumor was quite true.

Therefore, the object of Dean Snape's love when he was young married Harry's father Potter, which made Dean Snape hate Harry so much.

Elrohir felt that he had guessed the truth of the matter.

Shaking his head to throw away the irrelevant thoughts, Elrohir made up his mind and prepared to give Dean Snape another gift.

After going round and round, I finally have to give you the Potions Class Experimental Operating Code.

Elrohir has always felt that the magic experiment operations in the wizarding world are very simple and primitive. In the era hundreds of years ago, such rough operations may not have mattered, but now it is the 90s, and Muggles can even sit down. The spacecraft has gone up to the sky, but the operating instructions on board are still vague quantifiers such as "a little, a while, a few", and cannot even meet the minimum accuracy requirements.

Elrohir thinks that his potion skills are not yet high enough to modify textbooks, but he can still provide basic experimental operating rules. In this way, he can at least reduce the frequency of potion accidents.

At least Neville would no longer be able to burn through the crucible so easily. Neville might still have a little difficulty. The child's memory function seems to have been damaged to a certain extent, and his academic performance and operational ability are poor. This is not just due to his weak character and low self-esteem.

But no matter what, most other students can still correct themselves.

The reduction of accidents in Potions class also helps Elrohir to attend the class calmly. If nothing else, the occasional explosion is enough to make him feel better.

After deciding on the gift to give to Dean Snape, Elrohir began to think about what to give to Professor McGonagall.

Compared with the Potions class, which has an obvious era gap, Transfiguration has no reference in the ordinary world. Elrohir's Transfiguration level is also lower than that of Professor McGonagall. At least in terms of professional courses, he can't get it. What a good gift.

I don’t have the money to give away suitable magic items.

What should I give as a gift?

Elrohir just wandered around Diagon Alley, hoping to find some inspiration.

Give gifts, give gifts to women, give gifts to witches, give gifts to older cat ladies.

These four things look similar on the surface, but in fact they are very different.

Hey Owl Shop, Professor McGonagall doesn't seem to need the extra Owl Flourish and Blott Bookstore. The professor has studied the forefront of transfiguration. He must be well-read. He has probably read all the books in the restricted section of the library. Flourish and Blott Bookstore There probably won’t be any interesting books in it. Florin Fusco’s Ice Cream Parlor. Let’s just forget about it. Treating an old lady to ice cream in the middle of winter. What kind of hatred is this? Nina jumps and plays in the magic joke shop. The twins probably I would prefer a Quidditch boutique. Professor McGonagall is an avid fan. Maybe I can give you a Quidditch model.

Hey, wait, something seemed to have floated by just now

Like Hogwarts: The Wizard. Hogwarts: The Wizard.
