Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

At this moment, Maca was staring at a beautiful envelope that had been opened and looked around.He feels that the most recent letter seems to be more gorgeous than one, and the content is probably correspondingly less simple.

This letter was just handed to him by Professor McGonagall.

Since he and Professor McGonagall mentioned the little Delphi's matter before, Maca could clearly feel the shock in the other party's heart.But apart from that, Professor McGonagall agreed more with his treatment. Obviously, giving a baby who doesn’t understand anything a better life is what every Hogwarts should do. The act of choice.

But immediately, Professor McGonagall did not continue to ask Scrimgeour whether he planned to promote a Hogwarts-led event, but first put an envelope with a ribbon and a Pegasus pattern on the Maca. In front of.

On the seal of the letter, the bright red lacquer seal was quite conspicuous. He just glanced at it and knew that the letter came from the Boothbat School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in France.

"Can I open it?"

Although Professor McGonagall had already handed it to him, he naturally wanted to take a look at it.But the envelope clearly read "To Ms. Minerva McGonagall" in a small line. It was a personal letter, and he should reconfirm it if it was polite.

"Of course, you are also mentioned in the letter-Mrs. Maxim thinks that maybe it would be better for you to take a look. After all, you are also one of the original parties." Professor McGonagall motioned to him to open it.

"Participant? Me?" Maca thought for a while, but did not recall anything related to Boothbarton and Mrs. Maxim. "Then it would be rude..."

As he said, he gently picked up the envelope that had been torn open, and pulled out a piece of letter paper from it.The letter paper was neatly folded, and the material of the paper was quite flexible, as if every inconspicuous corner was showing Bussbarton's wealth and taste.

And when he unfolded the letter paper for a brief look, the key words on the letter paper immediately revived some of his memories that had faded over time.He remembered that before, he had really tried to mix up a big meddling that said small is also small, and said big can become very big.

"Nick LeMay's legacy?" Maca said suddenly, "Oh, I almost forgot it!"

Yes, when he went to Paris with Lovegood and his daughter, he did meet the old butler of Nannick Leme in Boothbaton, and happened to be involved in the conversation between the other party and Mrs. Maxim in.

It's just that he wasn't as famous as he is now, so he just served as a neutral witness in the entire conversation.

But in the letter before him, Mrs. Maxime made it very clear, maybe he could be invited to join in and be one of the main candidates to explore the Nick Lemay Alchemy Laboratory.

From this point, it can be seen that the current Maca, at least in terms of magical strength, is quite convincing.It can even be said that in Mrs. Maxim's heart, he was afraid that he would be enough to complete the things that Dumbledore should have done in this event.

"Let me say yes, I don't actually have much research on alchemy." Maca put down the letter paper and took a sip from the tea cup at hand.

In the modern magic world, alchemy is no longer the mainstream magic discipline.Although it is actually quite simple to get started in this subject, there are quite fundamental obstacles-loss of inheritance if you want to study in depth.

With the exception of Nick Lemay, a particularly prominent great alchemist, it is difficult to find another qualified alchemist.

And for some reason, that great alchemist rarely had academic exchanges with others, and even the students had confiscated even one.Only Dumbledore, a good friend, had discussed some magical knowledge with him.

By now, Nick Lemay, who has lived 665 years old, has also passed away. A relatively complete alchemy inheritance in the entire magical world.

Oh, just like the Werther family, maybe there are some ancient alchemy families that are also hidden in the world playing mystery?Who knows?

"For alchemy, there are not many people who know...what do you think of this matter?" Professor McGonagall shook his head slightly, and asked about the opinion of Maca who was one of the parties involved.

"Mr. Nick LeMay is to present his life's research results to the world of magic to share. Since Mrs. Maxim, who has a good relationship with Mr. Le May, wants to avoid suspicion, then only let you and our Hogwarts host This is something." Maca analyzed it a little, but then he spread his hands again. "For us at Hogwarts, this is almost the same as Mr. Scrimgeour's proposal to hold an event. "

"Yes." Professor McGonagall put down the teacup, a little embarrassed, "And, I am afraid we can only choose one of them, can't we? If we take these two things into our own arms, it will be detrimental to the impact."

It seems that sometimes too many good things can become a difficult problem to choose.

"As far as the result is concerned, it must be that Nick Lemay’s legacy is much more important," Maca also felt that it was really difficult to choose. "But correspondingly, higher returns usually come with higher risks. If the inheritance is not handled well..."

"Not only that... Maca, Mr. Scrimgeour's side?" Professor McGonagall gave him a questioning look, as if he was worried that he would not be able to refuse.

"No, you don't have to worry about it," Macka said. "The minister is astute! He will definitely support everything that is beneficial to him-multi-school joint activities and Nick Lemay's legacy. I think he will enthusiastically facilitate it no matter what it is."

Hearing what Maca said, Professor McGonagall couldn't help nodding, obviously agreeing with his views.But in this case, the problem seems to have returned to the dilemma again.

Maca constantly weighs these two things. One has advantages and disadvantages that have a great impact, and the other only has benefits but has a general impact. Moving forward or seeking stability will always make people hesitant.

After all, who would be willing to vomit out the fat that is almost to the mouth again?

After a while, when Maca found that he had drunk all the black tea in the cup, he finally put the tea cup on the coaster and made a decision.

"Professor McGonagall, I think... maybe we can combine these two things?" He thought carefully, "Mr. Scrimgeour originally proposed to reopen the Potions Championship, but I just thought about it. We Why not change to a competition based on alchemy?"

Although the inheritance has been lost in large quantities, it only means that it is difficult to have an alchemy master like Mr. Nick Lemay.If we only talk about the relatively ordinary alchemy knowledge, there are still many fragments left in this world. For example, the tools in the hands of the Auror of the Ministry of Magic are mostly small and practical alchemy products.

Even if it is no longer a mainstream subject, but because of its small part of daily practicality, some things even Fred and George can use in some of their prank inventions.

"A competition in alchemy?" Professor McGonagall pondered in his heart, the more he thought about it, the more feasible he felt. "This will also help restart everyone's interest in alchemy, and maybe it can attract some people who don't. Alchemists who know... well, it is indeed an idea worth trying!"

She already understood what Maca meant.

Perhaps at that time, at the moment when the championship is decided, they will also usher in the best time to disclose Nick Lemay's alchemy legacy.

"But in this case, letting students from the magic school participate in this competition, is it a little too..." Professor McGonagall said suddenly, "you know, after all, the current alchemy is not in the teaching category of most schools. Within."

"I think..." Maca thoughtfully said, "Maybe we should discuss this topic with Mr. Minister! Anyway, it is related to the public issue of Nick Lemay’s legacy, and the international wizard cannot be avoided anyway. From the Federation, isn't it?"

Nick Lemay’s original intention was to use his own research results to improve the alchemy level of the entire magical world. This is such a good thing that the International Wizarding Federation will definitely pay considerable attention.And what they have to do now is to gain a firm foothold amidst such major events and win more benefits for Hogwarts.

Maca’s proposal is quite bold. If it succeeds, Hogwarts will take this opportunity to go further and stand higher even if it is only one of the dominant players.But in the end, the center of the event will inevitably be the International Federation of Wizards, so if there is any mistake that leads to failure, it will also be the International Federation of Wizards that assumes the main responsibility.

As long as you are careful when negotiating, don't let the burden be thrown on your head by others. This originally high risk will be greatly reduced.

"You can try," Professor McGonagall finally nodded after thinking for a long time. "But things are not in a hurry. We can invite Mr. Scrimgeour to have a chat with him another day."

"Well," Maca also nodded, "I believe he will be very interested."

Operating Hogwarts is by no means easy, and things like these with great influence need to be handled with care.But Professor McGonagall is now the principal of Hogwarts, and she will consider the future of Hogwarts. If she can further develop the school that once took care of herself, then Dumbledore did not believe in vain. She was.

After making this decision, Professor McGonagall and Maca couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.The two picked up their tea cups again to take a sip to moisturize their throats, only to find that their respective cups were already empty.
