The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

"The key to Transfiguration is to understand the actual composition of the object you are casting the spell on and the object you want to transform. I think you all know this very well after entering the second year."

Professor McGonagall looked at the Slytherins and Hufflepuffs who were hanging their heads, and slowly walked past them.

Each of them had a crawling little beetle on their desk, which was the exercise content of this class.

"Now, please try to transform the insect on the table into a button. Please be careful before waving your wand. The most important thing about Transfiguration is accuracy. The slightest error will be considered a failure."

Sun Zhu held the wand and stared at the little red and black ladybug, trying to see it more clearly.

If the transformation fails and she can never change back, the ladybug will be killed by her.

That's why Professor McGonagall repeatedly stressed the precision and caution of Transfiguration. Although the transformation between dead objects is also difficult, it is not dangerous. As for living things...

The most difficult thing is not to turn living things into inanimate objects, nor to turn people into animals, but to turn the same dull and dead things into living things with "souls", and that is the content for high school students.

She remembered that when she went to the secret room on Christmas Eve, she had to transform a Xumi bead into a chicken to lure the basilisk. This was a big test for her at the moment, and she failed to do it that night, but only conjured a fake outline.

She thought the basilisk bit her first because it was not attracted to the "chicken".

According to Gamp's Law of Transfiguration, turning something that is not food into something that stimulates appetite is doomed to fail. Her plan was risky from the beginning, but she didn't realize it until now.

It turns out that I still need to read more books and study more, otherwise I might suffer losses next time because of my lack of skills.

Why can't she learn some difficult skills across levels like the genius protagonists in novels?

Sun Zhu shook his head regretfully and simply closed his eyes, imagining the appearance of a button in his mind: round or square, with a hole for threading the needle, and the color... it would be nice if it was still red and black.

She chanted a spell softly and waved her wand. When she felt the spell take effect, she opened her eyes and saw that the little bug running around had turned into a round, flat button.

There are two small holes in the middle, which look like the ladybug's eyes have been dug out. The only drawback is that the red and black colors are unevenly distributed, which makes it look a bit ugly.

A soft sigh came from the side, and Sun Zhu turned his head to see Fina supporting her head, staring at the flat thing crawling around on her desk.

The shape and other things are almost the same, but it is still moving, and it is still a bug with only hands and feet.

Fina looked at Sun Zhu's results with a bitter face, and pursed her lips slightly in frustration: "Mr. Lupin said before that the most important subjects for becoming an Animagus are Transfiguration and Charms, but I... am not very good at either."

"Your Potions class is already great. If you can reach new heights in Transfiguration and Charms, do you still want the rest of us to live?" Sun Zhu raised his eyebrows exaggeratedly.

"Yeah, not everyone is called Cedric, right." Fina picked up the wand again and continued her attempt.

The leader of the Badger Courtyard who was named in the front row immediately turned around and glanced at Sun Zhu.

"Why? Can't I call out your name?" Sun Zhu stretched out his hand to him, "Show us your results for reference."

Cedric turned his head obediently, then quickly turned back and placed something in her palm.

His fingertips brushed across her palm, and then he immediately resumed his normal sitting position, looking extremely well-behaved.

Professor McGonagall glanced at them at this moment, seemingly not noticing their actions at all, and just gently straightened the wizard hat on her head.

Sun Zhu glanced at the back of the head of the classmate in front of him, but noticed that his ears had turned red.

"What? It's just whispering during class. Are you so afraid of Professor McGonagall?"

Sun Zhu laughed at her mercilessly, and Fina also looked away. This time her "buttons" were no longer crawling around, but had a strange shape and no holes.

Sun Zhu glanced at the palm of his hand, was stunned for a moment, then quickly clenched it, looked at Fina guiltily, and said nothing.

Fina raised her eyebrows curiously and leaned closer to ask, "What has changed about the top student? Let me learn from him too?"

"Well, it's just average. I feel..." Sun Zhu rolled his eyes and stammered, his acting was poor.

Fina grabbed Sun Zhu's hand and pried it apart without much effort while she wasn't paying attention.

"Well... well, I'm sorry, I really can't learn it." She only took a look and then covered her face with her hands and lay on her desk.

Sun Zhu kicked the chair leg of the person in front of him expressionlessly, wanting to cry but without the tears.

The red button in her hand had an even color and a hole of just the right size. It could be said to be the most perfect button in the world - it would be even more perfect if it wasn't a standard heart shape.

This person...what is he thinking about day by day?

Can you focus on studying?

With that in mind, she simply picked up her wand, turned the oddly shaped button back into a bug, and placed it on his hood.

"Your transformation spell lasts too short a time. It's all changed back... Try harder." She lied with her eyes open, speaking in a very bossy tone.

"Okay." He didn't turn around, but used his white and slender hands to pull the hat of his hospital robe behind his shoulders, took the innocent insects off it and put them back on the table.

Sun Zhu used his elbow to gently poke Fina, who was still lying on the table: "Stop laughing, hurry up and practice!"

Cedric's originally upright sitting posture suddenly changed, and he leaned against the back of the chair. He tilted his head slightly, and looked at someone with a slightly awkward expression with a smile in his eyes. His short black hair set off his fair but slightly red cheeks, making him look innocent and cunning.

"I promise, I'll work hard. I'll make it last longer next time - much, much longer."

Fina, who had just raised her head, glanced at them, then lay down again, picking up the "Beginner's Guide to Transformation" to cover her face.

Sun Zhu looked at the person who almost put his head on his desk, resisted the urge to put the button on his face, and simply leaned closer and whispered: "Really? Then I will time you. See how long you can last - it is said that the stronger the magic power, the longer it can last. Student Said will definitely not let me down, right?"

He looked at the smiling black eyes so close to him and was stunned for a moment.

"Well...of course." He blinked awkwardly.

Professor McGonagall approached quietly, glanced at the bugs crawling all over Cedric's desk, and frowned.
