[HP] I was the scroll king at Hogwarts

"When was the last time you saw such a spectacular scene?"

Looking at the owl covered by crows, Alice swallowed the milk in her mouth and couldn't help sighing.

"It should be the last time."

A newspaper was thrown down, Carrie nimbly avoided the splashing soup, picked up the newspaper unhurriedly, browsed the content, and then cursed slowly and unhurriedly.

"What does the Ministry of Magic do with Merlin's socks?"

"How much did they charge?"

"Is there someone above her?"

Listening to the cursing one after another, Alice tilted her head in doubt, and waited and waited until her own owl slowly delivered the Daily Prophet.

"It's been so long, and you've gained weight, why are you delivering it so slowly?" She complained as she took the newspaper, and as expected, she got a disgusted look from her own owl.

"Come on, don't bully your owl, and read the headlines." Carrie urged, with anger still on her face.

Alice had no choice but to watch her "rebel" owl fly away.

After such a long time, it has long been raised fat and white by the elves of Hogwarts, but it pretends to be weak every time it sends a letter.

Withdrawing her gaze, she cast her gaze on the newspaper that caused public outrage.

["Daily Prophet"

Today's headline: Rita Skeeter released from prison!Claiming to have been framed, or going to court with the Ministry of Magic? 】

Below the report is a photo of Rita Skeeter. Her face is haggard and she has lost a lot of weight, but she is laughing and waving her hands energetically, with complacency and sarcasm in her eyes.

"really weird."

"That's right, you also find it strange." Carrie patted the table again, venting her dissatisfaction, "The Ministry of Magic is getting more and more over the top, it was the same with the pink worms before, and now it's the same with Rita Skeeter .”

When Rita Skeeter was arrested, the Ministry of Magic made extremely exaggerated reports in most newspapers, including the Daily Prophet.

Well now suddenly become framed?Anyone with a brain knows something is wrong.

"What I'm curious about is who is behind Rita Skeeter." Alice was rather calm. After all, Rita is one of the most influential reporters. After all these years, she still has connections.

"I always thought she had people from the Ministry of Magic behind her," she mused.

Originally, Rita had completely offended the Ministry of Magic this time, and because of the illegal Animagus being arrested, Alice still thought that her backer was a small person, but now it seems that is not the case.

But who else is older than Officer Fudge?Minister of Magic?

But if Rita had been backed by the Minister of Magic, she would never have been caught, and she would not have stayed in Azkaban for so long.

Alice narrowed her eyes. In fact, there is another possibility, that is, the very capable reporter Rita found a new backer while she was in prison.

But what backing can Azkaban have?Or did she know something in Azkaban, or got in touch with someone outside in Azkaban?

"What should I do? Will she retaliate against you?" Carrie asked worriedly when she saw Alice was in a daze.

After all, even though it was all blamed on Gilderoy Lockhart, if Rita really wanted to investigate, she would be able to find out who was behind Alice.

Rita's original sentence was five years, enough for her to graduate from Hogwarts and explore and research around the world.Alice pursed her lips, but the plan couldn't keep up with the changes.

Anxiously turning the pages of the newspaper, she couldn't help but froze when she saw the title on the next page.

"I don't think we need to worry."

"What?" Carrie didn't know why, "This kind of people who have squatted in Azkaban will more or less have some mental problems, we can't take it lightly..."

As she spoke, she turned to the next page with her hand. Seeing the title and signature, her eyes widened.

["Daily Prophet"

"Hogwarts may not be the best wizarding school, but Dumbledore is definitely the best headmaster." - Rita Skeeter]

"Understood." Alice read the article carefully and made sure that it was not a new type of ironic article.Rita Skeeter is indeed sincerely praising Principal Dumbledore.

"The person above Rita is Principal Dumbledore?" This was Carrie's first thought, but as soon as she said the words, seeing Alice's unbelievable gaze, she knew that she had made a mistake again.

"First of all, Principal Dumbledore should not help such a person of low quality." Alice expressed her respect for the principal. "Secondly, haven't you noticed that the principal has been consciously avoiding political influence?"

"is it?"

"Yes."

In Alice's view, as the most powerful white wizard in this century who once defeated the Dark Lord, as long as Principal Dumbledore wants to, becoming the Minister of Magic is just a matter of words.

Now that he is the headmaster of Hogwarts, he does not engage in political activities. On the one hand, it is because of his love for teaching, and on the other hand, he may have deliberately avoided it for some reason.

"However, this is not something we need to worry about." Seeing Carrie's confused face, Alice changed the subject thoughtfully, "Don't you have class in the first period of the morning? If you don't go, it will be too late."

"Merlin!" Carrie jumped up from the chair like a spring, "It's the dean's class, I can't be late!"

……

Although Rita's incident caused quite a stir among the students, after venting their emotions during the day, at night, everyone seemed to forget about this topic with the same mind.

Like both Alice and Carrie, they both had more important things to do.

What is the effect of the new magic beauty cream?

Carrie Jones of Ravenclaw can answer that question.

The answer is that the effect is good, and the cost performance is not high.

What was it like to get the potions master's notes?

Ravenclaw's Alice Hall can answer that question.

The answer is painful.

"Isn't the problem solved?" Carrie lay on the bed, in order to ensure the effect of the newly released magic beauty cream, she restrained her questions from between her teeth.

"The problem of the experiment is indeed solved." Sitting by the desk, Alice couldn't help scratching her hair. "Since the professor gave me the notes, it must be for me to make good use of them."

Make good use of it, of course, not only to solve experimental problems, but also to use notes to learn and improve.

"Then you learn." Carrie followed the instructions and massaged her face meticulously and gently, "It's not me who learned it anyway."

"It's too painful." Alice abruptly pulled out a hair, "It's the first time I feel that potions are so difficult."

It turns out that experiments and experiments are not the same thing. It turns out that getting high scores in exams does not mean talent. It turns out that there is a difference between talent and talent.

At the same time, Alice once again clearly realized how correct it was to choose to study herbal medicine.

Not to boast, after a few years, her exploration and research in herbal medicine is enough to write a similar notebook.

But when it comes to Potions, she can't even understand it!

"This is the first time for me. The first time I have encountered such a situation that I can't understand at all."

Judging from the cover and handwriting, this notebook is very old.From the content point of view, the improvement of the potion brewing method and the improvement of the effect of the potion are more like inspirational essays than experimental notes.

But combined with the "Potion Research Notebook" emphasized on the title page, she had reason to believe that this was indeed an experimental notebook.It's just that this is the professor's experimental notes before the junior grades, or at least the senior grades.

"But the blow will be even greater this way." Alice lay down on the table with her face pressed against the notes, trying in vain to let knowledge flow directly into her mind.

The previous content, including the principle of the advanced transformation potion needed to solve the ratfish problem, is understandable.But when it came to the second half, when it came to the deeper theoretical exploration of Potions, she felt that she was not reading English.

"Naive, really naive!" Carrie had already washed off the beauty cream on her face, and she stood on the bed with her hips akimbo excitedly, "Is this the first time you don't understand? I do it every day. I can't understand the class."

After saying these words inexplicably with a hint of pride, she calmed down again, and said earnestly: "Do you know what I have learned during the five years in Hogwarts and Ravenclaw? "

"what?"

"Make peace with yourself."

Alice sat up straight, completely shocked. She hadn't expected Carrie to speak so philosophically.

"I know that I will definitely not be able to learn such advanced subjects as Potions." Carrie began her speech, "Even if it is extremely painful and barely learns the knowledge in textbooks, it is doomed that there will be nothing on this road. Big achievement."

"Since painful study can't be exchanged for any achievements, why don't I choose a happy seven years?"

Alice was stunned. Although she thought this statement was weird, she couldn't find anything to refute for a while.

"Of course I'm a waste with no ambitions." Carrie jumped off the bed and patted Alice on the shoulder, "Although you are a genius in many ways, you have to accept that you are not talented enough in potions .”

Alice looked at Carrie, who seemed to be emitting holy light under the light, and at the potion notes spread out on the table, and felt that she was convinced!

"What are you doing? Didn't you say you won't study?"

Alice withdrew her wand, looked at the two potion notes in front of her, and nodded with satisfaction: "I accept the fact that I don't have the ability to read through the notes now, but maybe in the future?"

"...Is this the point?" Carrie was furious, "The point I want to express is to reconcile with myself!"

"It's really a reconciliation with myself. Didn't I accept the fact?"

"No, no, that's not the point, don't take it for granted!"

"That's right! I almost forgot!" Alice put away the two notebooks carefully, "I also want to ask the professor if this notebook can be copied, and if there is any confidentiality requirement."
