Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 237 "Peak July, Audiovisual Feast"
If anyone can let Hermione, who still has a grievance in her heart, completely wipe out her unhappiness, it is undoubtedly Maca.
This time, both the editor of the Daily Prophet and the gossip writer Rita Skeeter put aside all previous remarks against Hogwarts and Dumbledore.
Today’s front page headline is an extremely exaggerated full-page advertising!
"The 1995 personal audiovisual show of the mysterious actor in the British magical world!"
"At the peak of July, the king of heaven reappears!"
"The first audio-visual feast in the history of magic, an unprecedented carnival for you!"
"Use my curse (charm)① to lock your heart!"
Behind the adverts that kept shaking and jumping, was a magical photo that occupied the entire first edition.But what is amazing is that in this huge, costly and even costly photo, there is only a mysterious figure wearing a hooded cloak.
That black cloak hunted and danced in the wind, matched with the ruins of the battlefield around it, it looked really cool!
And at the bottom of this page, there is a line printed that is not very conspicuous, but it is not so easy to miss:
"This concert is provided by Mr. Maca McLean with exclusive technical and financial support. Lock your heart, and lock this newspaper’s second grand promotion on June 23!"
"What's the matter?" Harry and Ron asked, staring at Hermione squirting pumpkin juice.
"... Look for yourself."
Hermione drew out her magic wand to clean up the pumpkin juice from the newspaper, then handed it to Harry who was sitting across from her.
Harry stretched out his hand to take it, and was immediately surprised by this extremely rare oversized advertisement, but when he looked at it a few more times, he found that there seemed to be nothing that would make Hermione squirt pumpkin juice.
Ron leaned close to Harry, and was scanning the newspaper in wonder.
"Next, look at the bottom!" Hermione was wiping her mouth. Seeing that Harry and Ron were confused, she immediately waved her hand.
"Uh...Ma Kekekeke..."
Ron was obviously choked by his saliva.
In Hogwarts, many students have the habit of subscribing to newspapers and reading newspapers-after all, in the magic world, there are too few entertainment activities, so newspapers and publications have become one of the first choices for entertainment and relaxation. .
It didn't take long for some attentive students to spread the news. For a while, there was a lot of buzzing in the auditorium, and everyone began to discuss each other.
"What is Maca doing?" Harry asked blankly.
"Who knows?" Hermione flatly said, "I guess he is planning something messy again!"
"I dare say, no matter what Maca is planning, but this concert will definitely be wonderful!" Ron eagerly said, "In July, we have already had a holiday... I think we can go and watch it together!"
"I don't think that's a good idea..." Hermione murmured.
But in fact, many students have similar ideas to Ron. This is a rare large-scale entertainment event, and it sounds quite new!
What is "the actor"?It sounds like a person, but who is the handsome "mysterious actor"?
To publish a full-page advertisement on the first page of the influential "Daily Prophet", the consumption of Jin Jialong is not a small figure.
What's more, Maca's personal assets are actually somewhat stretched, and he must not be able to spend so much money.
But he can't take it out himself, but there are so many people who have nowhere to spend!
For Maca, this is a typical empty-glove white wolf-style financing method.
For this amount of money, the Werther family didn't even blink their eyes—for them, as long as the "Sorcerer's Stone" could be obtained, wouldn't it be like playing with some gold coins?
Compared with the plan that was abandoned before, his plan this time was much more cautious and the scope of his consideration was much larger.
"What is this kid doing?"
On the faculty bench, Mad-Eye Moody saw Dumbledore's smile, so he leaned over and took a look.Worthy of being an experienced old Auror, he quickly noticed the name of the bottom Maca.
"No matter what he wants to do, at least it must be a stable activity." Dumbledore said with a smile, "It's a pity, I guess I can't go to the scene to take a look..."
As Dumbledore said, the fragmentary cases are frequent, and the hearts of the British magical community are already a little unstable.At this time, as long as the event can be successfully completed, it will definitely make most wizards relax and gradually tighten their mood.
According to Dumbledore's guess, Macca probably wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to win people's hearts, and if he went, he would definitely affect the effectiveness of his successor as his successor.
However, how could Maca leave his such a powerful labor force aside?
This propaganda has been raged in Hogwarts and even the magical world of England, and everyone is talking about this rare and mysterious activity.
But the instigator of this event, at this moment, shut himself up in the responsive room with his head covered and worked hard.
This plan is equivalent to setting a time limit for himself. During this time, he must continue to in-depth research on the rule rune-he already has a preliminary concept of the so-called "rule power" Up.
Rule runes can be roughly divided into three levels, and what Maca is currently trying to understand is the largest number of first-level rule runes.
The first-level rule rune is the material rule, which contains the laws of various material motions and the basic structure of matter. Maca’s most proficient "cooling rune" is one of them.
But even if he could study and understand slowly, the time consumed for each initial understanding of the first-level rule rune would be calculated in years, which is obviously not something that can be used in a short while.
Therefore, what Maca needs to do now is to selectively master one or two of them, and approach the state of complete mastery infinitely.
When the time comes with the power displayed by the rule rune, it can be called "the power of the first level rule".
Maca was in a state of dedicating himself to research, and every day returned to the usual routine of work and rest at Hogwarts.
Of course, it was impossible to go to class, and that part of the time was also included in the research period by him, leaving only a small part to maintain an understanding of the outside world.
During this period of time, Luna was the only one who saw him every day and even accompanied him.
However, please don't think that only Maca can work so hard for research.
...
"Miss Blois, they have just eaten their stomachs and are sleeping... Please don't poke them with a branch... Oh! That doesn't seem to be the head, the head is on the other side—"
Behind Hagrid's hunting lodge, there are several wooden shelves, each with a large flat-bottomed basket.
In the shallow flat-bottomed baskets lined with a layer of soft and tender lettuce leaves, the round and fat bugs lie lazily in them, seeming to be sleeping.
Willie squatted beside those wooden shelves, and gently stabbed the insects' heads with a turquoise branch. It is inevitable that there would be times when they stumbled, right?
"Saliva, thickener." Wei Li said concisely.
And the tall Hagrid was squatting beside her with a frown, telling her that she should come again later.But he found that he and this little girl seemed completely unable to communicate.
A fat bug in the basket seemed a little uncomfortable to be stabbed by Willie, twisted and changed positions, and then continued to fall asleep.
In fact, Willie has been dealing with Hagrid for some time, since she wanted Hagrid to help her raise such a group of Flobber caterpillars.
But how did Hagrid know that Willie seemed to care about these baby bugs very much.
From that day on, she had come here every day to squat, and from time to time she would poke one by one with branches, no matter what Hagrid said, it didn't work.
What made Hagrid even more shocked was that although the little girl looked cute, she had no expression at all.
Just watching her holding a branch with no expression on her face and stabbing a strip of Flobber caterpillars, the scene made people feel uncomfortable.
Just like today, Wei Li was also very persistent and stabbed them one by one. Then she stood up, turned calmly and left, leaving only Hagrid who could not "get used to it" at all, squatting there with a blank face to watch her. Leaving.
"...Could it be that this is fun?"
Hagrid picked up the branch hesitantly and couldn't help reaching into the basket and stabbing it.
"Oh, sorry……"
His hand shrank quickly because he realized that he seemed to have also stabbed the wrong side.
"Damn it, the heads of these little guys are so hard to distinguish from P shares!" Hager said angrily.
On the other hand, after class, Wei Li ran to the observatory again and started a new round of potions practice.No one knows what she is doing, but at least, she seems to live a very fulfilling day.
"……that's it?"
Wei Li knocked the cauldron with her magic wand, looked at the orange liquid medicine inside, and hesitated to mutter to herself.
But after a while, she shook her head and cleaned all the liquid medicine in the pot.
"Effect, not enough."
She pursed her mouth, lowered her head, and wrote down a few lines of matching data and effect evaluation in her notebook.
If someone could take a closer look, they would find that the thick notebook she lay on the ground had already been densely memorized.
And the most of them are "red crosses" one after another.
Wei Li is indeed very bad at the knowledge of potions, but that doesn't seem to affect her perseverance in the research of opponents.Even if she failed again and again, she never thought about giving up.
In silence, she put down the feather pen in her hand and started a new matching attempt.
