[HP] I was the scroll king at Hogwarts

"Oh, welcome, Alice. Sit down now..." Professor Flitwick sat on a high chair, pointing to the dessert on the table, "I remember you like sweets?"

Employment counseling is a serious matter, which is related to the employment and future of students.The students had no pressure in the previous four years, but now they suddenly make life choices, and the mood can be imagined.

As the head of Ravenclaw, Flitwick had seen many students who were so nervous that they fainted.Therefore, it is particularly important to alleviate the anxiety of students before the formal talk.

Although Professor Flitwick did not think that Alice would be a student who would be anxious at the end of the day, but there are still necessary procedures.

"I think desserts, such as chocolate, can make people feel happy." Alice sat upright on the chair, picked up a scone, and solemnly spread cream on it.

Professor Flitwick nodded with a smile: "It seems that you and Principal Dumbledore will have a lot in common."

"In fact, there are many related studies by Muggle scientists to prove this." Alice explained, "Eating sweets can increase the level of serotonin."

"Serotonin?"

"Serotonin, a compound that nerve cells use to send messages to each other, can affect appetite, drive, and mood."

"Muggles have also developed potions like potions?" Professor Flitwick only understood the role of serotonin, but he didn't understand the so-called "nerve cells" at all.

But this did not affect his interest, as a Ravenclaw, he has always been willing to accept new things.

"No, in fact serotonin is a natural substance in the human brain. According to research, eating sweets can properly increase the serotonin content in the human brain, thereby reducing impatience and giving people a sense of pleasure and happiness."

Professor Flitwick quickly grasped the key point: "This is very similar to the effects of the wizard's euphoria and palliative. Is there any connection between the two?"

"I've always had this kind of conjecture." Alice's eyes lit up after being recognized, "The mechanism of action of some potions may be that they affect certain substances in the human brain. There are more than one of these substances, and one of them is serotonin." .”

"No, maybe it's not just potions." Dean Flitwick stood up excitedly, pacing the room, "Do you know about dementors?"

Although she hasn't studied it yet, as an interest expansion, Alice glanced at the relevant introductions in the library.As a magical creature, the dementor has no five senses, and there is a hole where the mouth should be opened, which can suck people's souls away.

But the dean’s point is definitely not this, she thought hard—the dementors lived by sucking positive emotions from humans, and whenever the dementors passed by, the humans there would be sucked into happiness, reminding people of the scariest things.

"You mean dementors suck happiness?"

Professor Flitwick gave Alice an approving look; "As a student who has just entered the fifth grade, it is already very good to know this."

"Do you know how to deal with dementors?" Professor Flitwick was very interested, thinking about the school exam.

Alice replied confidently: "Dementors cannot be killed from the ground, they can only be driven away temporarily with the Patronus Charm."

She was quite familiar with the Patronus Charm, in fact she only learned about Dementors when she was preparing to learn the Patronus Charm.

"Actually, not everyone can use the Patronus Charm." Professor Flitwick paused, as if trying to calm down his excitement, "Eating chocolate is the easiest and quickest way for people to encounter dementors. "

"Why didn't I think of it before?" Professor Flitwick was completely immersed in his own world, and began to talk to himself.

What Dean Flitwick said instantly opened Alice's mind.The knowledge of herbal medicine learned in the past and the extra knowledge came in handy at this time.

"Ariotte, lovage, scurvy, sneezeweed, valerian..." Without a pause, Alice announced the names of a series of herbs, all of which she knew could affect people's emotions.

No, this seemed to remind Dean Flitwick of something, he nodded, and sat back on the high chair under Alice's puzzled gaze.

"Yes, your idea is indeed very remarkable and has great research value." The dean blinked, "But we should not forget the purpose of your coming here today."

These words instantly extinguished Alice's enthusiasm and calmed down her restless heart.

There are priorities. After all, employment consultation is related to the future and is the most important thing at present.

"I've heard from Professor Sprout, do you want to engage in herbal medicine research in the future?"

Alice nodded, this is the best solution after careful consideration, taking into account both reality and interest.

What's more, she has been working hard in this direction for nearly two years since she made up her mind in the third grade, and she will never give up halfway.

Professor Flitwick didn't get entangled in the question of "why he chose this profession". He should have learned about the situation from Professor Sprout in detail before, but just lowered his head and wrote a few words on the parchment.

"Then there is only one most important question left." Professor Flitwick put away his smile, which made Alice sit up straight.

"You also know that the initial investment in research work is huge, and results may not necessarily be achieved. If you choose pure research work after graduation, how will your money problem be solved?"

There are only a few impoverished students in Hogwarts every year, and the professors are often well aware of the identities of these students, and they usually have more understanding and tolerance towards them.

Professor Flitwick knew about Alice's family the night she was sorted into Ravenclaw: orphaned, with only one house left by her grandmother, dropped out of Muggle school before receiving a Hogwarts bursary up.

"I've thought about this in advance." Alice thanked Professor Flitwick for considering her so carefully. "Professor, you also know the mock questions I made in the fourth grade."

"The "Three-Year Simulation at the End of the Five-Year Period"? Thanks to it, the learning atmosphere among students has improved a lot this year." Professor Flitwick said with emotion.

Regarding this point, he also did not understand the thinking of young people nowadays.The homework papers that are usually assigned are perfunctory, but they are full of enthusiasm for this kind of exercises that cost extra money.

Of course, not understanding is not understanding, and this does not prevent professors from using this to promote student learning.

"Dean, you should also know that this is a profitable business through the share you get." Alice gave herself a thumbs up in her heart. This idea is really great. While making money, you can also consolidate what you have learned. Knowledge.

"Last month, we conducted a market survey, and based on the feedback, people have great expectations for the follow-up test questions."

In fact, Alice has put it into the schedule, striving to launch the "Five-Year Final Three-Year Simulation-OWLs Special Edition" at the beginning of the second semester.

"In this way, when I graduate from the seventh grade, the money I earn can at least cover my living expenses and the most basic research expenses in the early stage."

Seeing that Professor Flitwick did not refute, Alice continued her efforts: "Actually, I think this business can continue to develop after graduation. Regarding this, I will provide the principal with a detailed plan before graduation."

Since the simulation questions have been able to make money in the past few years, it means that there is demand, and there is money to be made if there is demand. You can't let the good money just because you graduated.

What's more, Alice has other thoughts.

As an orphan, no one understands the difficulties of poor students in going to school better than her.The tuition fee is only a small amount, and the most difficult thing is actually the living expenses.

In addition to the fixed textbooks every year, the daily consumption of school supplies, seasonal clothing, and necessary communication gifts...these are all heavy mountains on the heads of poor students.

As the headmaster said, the seven years at Hogwarts are the most precious and beautiful time for wizards.No little wizard should have to worry about money during those seven years.

In addition, the simulation questions must not be static, and must be developed to create new ones.When she leaves Hogwarts, the editors of the simulation questions can be changed to those poor students who are both good in character and learning, and then she will pay the corresponding remuneration.

In this way, Alice herself only earns a little less, but those poor students get the most practical help.

"You've thought it all over, so I won't say more." After solving the most important thing, Professor Flitwick also relaxed and took a piece of scone, "The craftsmanship of house elves is still as good as ever, since I like it Just eat more."

……

In the evening, it was rare for Alice not to go to the library. Instead, she took a walk by the Black Lake to relax.

In the office, after talking about the future plans, Dean Flitwick discussed with her the relationship between magic and the special substances of the human body studied by Muggles.

The relationship between magic spells and human substances is too mysterious and there are too few research objects.There are too many research objects in herbal medicine, and it is difficult to find a breakthrough.

The suggestion given by the dean is to start researching from potions, after all, potions are similar to various potions of Muggles.Of course, all this has to wait for Alice to pass the OWLs exam.

However, there are some preparations to be made before that.

Since it is a potion, Professor Snape must be troubled.Alice wasn't worried that Professor Snape would be unhappy, after all, according to her understanding of the professor, he would just start experimenting without waiting.

The only difficulty was that Professor Snape knew absolutely nothing about Muggle chemistry and biology.

After thinking for a long time, Alice decided to take her time and give the professor a periodic table of elements for Christmas this year.

"It's so tiring." She couldn't help sighing.

"It's rare to hear you say you're tired."

The familiar male voice, Alice knew it was Bill without guessing.

"I'm not an iron man, how can I not feel tired." She retorted without thinking, but screamed the moment she raised her head, "How did you become like this?!"
