Hogwarts Staff Maker

Liu's backyard, basement.

"The instrument cannot detect any value! But the indicator light is being interfered with by some kind of energy! This is unscientific!"

"Of course this is not scientific! This is a magic dad! How can you say that magicians' affairs are scientific?"

"But science is about exploring the unknown! Finding the truth in chaos! Finding the rules will explain everything!"

The sound of the door opening interrupted the father and son who were concentrating on their research, "Xiao Sen! Guo Zhong! Do you want to eat?"

"coming!"

"immediately!"

They both returned at the same time.

Liu Guozhong opened the fully enclosed composite glass cover and retrieved Liu Sen's magic wand from among the various instruments.

After careful feeling, there was a slight tingling sensation in the palm of my hand, as if I was stroking a sweater full of static electricity. Liu Sen's mother also tried it and said in anger: "Is this thing leaking electricity? Is it broken?"

"The magic wand is very dangerous. You should start studying with simple things." Liu Sen said as he took back the magic wand.

Father Liu pushed up his glasses and said, "We Chinese don't use magic wands. I've never heard your grandfather mention that."

Then he set his sights on the other end of the basement: "I think these magic props will be enough for me to study for a long time! Can you leave your backpack behind when the time comes?"

"Dear Professor Liu! I had it custom-made for me! I need it when school starts, otherwise all that luggage would be a pain in the ass." He was referring to the backpack Liu Sen had specially customized, the space inside of which had been expanded by the Traceless Extension Spell!

At first, Liu Sen couldn't understand why everyone in the magic world was still pushing heavy luggage when there was a spell called the Traceless Stretch Spell. After Liu Sen looked around Diagon Alley and found that he couldn't buy a box or bag that could stretch without a trace, he asked someone and finally understood.

The Traceless Extension Charm is a relatively difficult spell. Most wizards who can cast the Traceless Extension Charm are not short of money, while wizards who are short of money usually do not have very high magical attainments.

This results in things modified by the Traceless Stretching Spell not being so popular that they can be bought in any store!

And the more crucial point is that this thing is time-limited!

It's okay to compress the space in your tent into three bedrooms and a living room when you go out temporarily, but after a day or two the space will return to its original state, and you will have to deal with your luggage all over again!

For people with low magical attainments, the Traceless Extension Spell may fail in the middle of use, causing the luggage to explode all over the floor!

And if you want to stabilize the expanded space for a long time, you have to use some special magic materials, which will be expensive.

Therefore, for the sake of both trouble and cost saving, most families do not own a suitcase modified with the Traceless Stretching Spell.

The magical world can be cleaned up with a wave of the hand, but there are still many dirty and messy shops and hotels. Some places in the magical world are really hard to understand! Liu Sen could only complain helplessly.

Fortunately, Liu Sen had plenty of money, so he spent a lot of money to customize a backpack. The internal space was about the size of two bedrooms, which was long-term stable! He put his luggage in it and was ready to go.

The father and son got up and went to the restaurant. The meal had already been heated up. Their enthusiasm for research had not diminished since Liu Sen came back from Diagon Alley with his purchases. They had been tinkering in the basement for three days!

Liu Guozhong was not jealous of all the magic props, such as the set of brass scales and tin-plated crucibles.

"It's too outdated! It can only be used as a toy. To be honest, the old gram scale I gave to interns is 700 times more accurate than your 'artwork'! And that set of crucibles! My God, are they really not afraid of interference from the ingredients? The melting point of tin is only 231.88 degrees Celsius! And it easily reacts chemically with hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and nitric acid! It's unscientific to use this kind of vessel to heat materials! We stopped using it more than 100 years ago!"

When the two men sat down at the dining table, Liu's father was still persuading Liu Sen to bring a precision electronic scale that could weigh a hair and a ceramic crucible that could withstand 1300 degrees of heat.

"Dad, I have to go to Diagon Alley again. You know, I can't practice magic at home." Liu Sen said while eating.

"Of course, let's go together! I want to buy a few more newspapers, as well as their cameras and films!" Liu Guozhong replied after a moment of thought.

"By the way! Remind me to buy a new pair of dragon leather gloves, the previous ones were burned by you!" Liu Sen said helplessly.

When Julie heard this, she glared at her husband.

Liu Guozhong hurriedly said, "Don't be angry, dear! I just want to know the heat resistance limit of dragon skin, and also want to measure the tensile strength and chemical stability! If we can study the structural characteristics of dragon skin, there will be so many places where it can be applied!"

"Super insulation layer!" Liu Sen interrupted.

Liu Guozhong praised: "Yes, there are also bulletproof vests and space suits! Even new energy materials! It's a pity that I don't have a talent for magic, and your grandfather passed away early, otherwise I would have been able to study these things a long time ago!"

The two of them finished their food in a few bites. "I'm done!" they said at the same time and stood up and ran straight to the garage.

"Wait for me, I have an appointment to go to Gringotts with your uncle!"

……

The Leaky Cauldron, room 3rd floor.

Liu Sen took out the experimental equipment from his backpack with great effort, while Professor Liu skillfully adjusted and arranged them.

Liu Sen took out his magic wand. Although it was black and ugly, he found that every magic had a cool special effect of lightning! And it was quite powerful!

But it's not all advantages. The lightning core brings special effects while also bringing the properties of lightning: sensitive and violent!

If you don't control the strength of many small magics, serious deviations will occur! For example, the repair spell that Liu Sen practices the most!

This kind of magic that can restore objects to their original state as if they were traveling back in time is very valuable for research! In order to verify whether the molecular structure and physical properties of the object have changed after being repaired, Professor Liu asked Liu Sen to perform it countless times!

During the practice, Liu Sen discovered that even with the repair spell, if there was a trace of distracting thoughts in his mind or if his power was not well controlled, it would cause terrible consequences!

For example, if he uses the repair spell on a torn piece of paper, and the magic power fluctuates too much during the casting process, he will get a compressed abstract ball of paper!

But if the magic power is output too quickly and imagines the process of paper production, then he will get a handful of wood chips!

Liu Sen was thinking wildly, if he used the repair spell on a diamond with all his strength, would he get a piece of carbon? Liu Sen didn't dare to tell his father, otherwise, with his scientific enthusiasm, he would definitely buy a big diamond immediately!

While Liu Sen was practicing the contents of the elementary magic textbook, Liu Guozhong was tirelessly debugging the instruments that were interfered with by magic.

When Liu Sen was practicing the lighting technique 'Fluorescent Flash' which couldn't be simpler, Liu's father stopped and said thoughtfully.

"You said, the light emitted from the tip of the magic wand is the result of the transformation of the internal magic power, or is it the magic power that oscillates the spectrum of invisible light to change the frequency and turn it into visible light?"

Liu Sen also has an exploratory spirit towards magic and his imagination runs wild. "I'll try to change the output of magic power. Can you help me with the instrument?"

……

On the other side, Julie and Liu Sen's uncle Bell walked into Gringotts together, followed by an elderly witch.

"Ahem! We need to exchange gold Galleons!" Julie said to the fairy who was concentrating on weighing gold Galleons.

"A property transfer contract is also needed!" Bell added.

Half an hour later, the brother and sister sent the witch away and found two more property deeds in their hands!

After a quiet conversation with Bell, Julie turned back to the cold and serious goblin and said, "We want to get a mortgage!"

An hour after leaving, they returned to Gringotts with a down-and-out middle-aged wizard.

“We want to transfer money!”

……

It was completely dark when Liu Sen and his family returned home.

The dining table was filled with packed meals and wizarding specialties purchased from Diagon Alley.

"Ah, I haven't had Butterbeer for many years! It still tastes like the one I remember!" Bell sighed after taking a sip of the beer with a rich malt aroma and smooth taste.

"Uncle, when I was a child you told me that you ate chocolate that moved and broad beans that could spit fire. Let's go to Diagon Alley to look for them next time!" Liu Sen said expectantly.

Bell ruffled Liu Sen's hair so hard that he quickly dodged it. He took a sip of wine and said, "Don't worry, little Liu Sen. There are so many delicious and fun things in the magic world! You two should save some cauldron cake for me!"

"I'm starving!" Julie.

"I'm so hungry!" Liu Guozhong.

The two men's answers were brief and vague, their mouths full of food.

Several people were starving. Liu Sen and his son conducted magic experiments in the hotel room for a whole day. Both of them gained a lot and were still not satisfied. They discussed going to the basement to conduct experiments that did not require magic.

Julie and Bell, a brother and sister, began to invest in the wizarding world in a professional manner.

So far, the two have bought 7 shops and 6 houses in Liu Sen's name! They also plan to invest in some magic companies after a period of investigation!

The two applied for a large loan from Gringotts and used the loan to reinvest! In fact, it was not that they did not have funds, but this was more challenging and more profitable!

The brother and sister who were abandoned by their wizard family have been working in the financial industry in the Muggle world for many years. Julie is an investment consultant for a large company, and Bell is even more powerful. He is an investment banker with a certain reputation in the industry!

Over the years, the two's desire for money has never been satisfied. They use making money to gain a sense of accomplishment and security!

Their resentment towards their family has never ceased, but they have no place to vent it. That magical world is like a mirage, and two people without magical talent cannot reach it at all.

Now that Liu Sen has obtained the qualifications to become a wizard, he has rekindled their deep-seated belief in resisting the injustice of fate!

The brother and sister then started by purchasing real estate, confident that they could replicate their success in the Muggle world in the wizarding world!

"Liu Sen, congratulations, you are a rich second-generation now!" Julie said as she brushed off the cake crumbs on her body.

"Haha, mom! Be low-key! Isn't that what I am?" Liu Sen said with a smile.

"No, Liu Sen, this time, you are the rich second generation of the magic world!" Uncle Bell took out a stack of contracts and slammed them on the table.

Liu Sen scanned them one by one, and expressed his approval of the two people's day's results. This was not the first time that his uncle and mother had done such a lavish act! Suddenly, he frowned and found a key point, "Wait! Why are all my names on it?"

"This is a reward from your mom! Do you think it's too much?" Julie.

"This is a gift from your uncle, don't you want it?" Bell said.

"Yes, yes, yes! I want as much as you can get! Thank you, both bosses!" Liu Sen was secretly happy, but it was not entirely because of the small amount of money, but because...

"Dad! Look! The house in Diagon Alley! We don't have to rent a hotel to do research!"

Professor Liu said happily, "Great! I can bring all the experimental equipment with me!"

…………

There were about two weeks left before school started. On this day, Liu Sen and his son did not go to Diagon Alley to do scientific research. Instead, they stayed at home to organize their research notes and looked up at the sky from time to time.

"When did uncle say we'll arrive?" Liu Sen couldn't help but ask.

"It should be soon." Liu Guozhong raised his hand to look at his watch.

The two men looked up again to make sure there were no messengers such as owls or pigeons flying towards their yard.

When the two men sat back in their chairs and began to discuss the use of the illumination spell, a small falling sound reached the ears of father and son.

The two turned around and saw a wooden sword stuck in the empty space in the backyard! A small package the size of a palm was tied to the hilt.
