Study Days at Hogwarts

Chapter 269 An arrow hit the knee

"Well...Albert, I suddenly had a good idea."

At night, in the Gryffindor common room, Fred, who was immersed in his homework, suddenly raised his head and said.

"What's a good idea?" Albert asked without looking up.

"I got an idea from Fat Lip Seasoning."

"Fat lip seasoning?" Albert was a little stunned when he heard this title, frowned slightly and asked, "Aren't you working on a thesis on freezing spells?"

"Ahem, that... I mean Fat Tongue Candy." Fred picked up a multi-flavor bean and threw it into his mouth, his eyes shining.

"Nothing new." Lee Jordan commented.

""Shut up and hear me out. Fred couldn't help but glare at Li Jordan and continued to explain, "Since you can add a swelling agent, why can't it be a swelling agent or swelling magic?" "

"Expansion magic?"

Albert looked up at Fred. The simplest way is to add expanding agent to the candy. The effect is similar to expanding magic, but he is not sure if there is such a magic potion. As for expanding magic? He felt that with Fred and George's current level, they couldn't do this for the time being, and even he didn't have a good idea for a while.

"So, you want me to help you complete it?" Albert raised his eyebrows and asked.

Both of them felt a little embarrassed immediately, and that was obviously what they meant.

"You don't want to open a joke shop. If that's the case, just think of a way on your own and turn your ideas into reality. Otherwise, it will never be possible for you to have your own joke shop." Albert reminded, "After all, you need to create the interesting items in the joke shop yourself, right?"

"Oh, okay." Fred responded casually, a little discouraged.

"Tell me what you think." George was very interested.

A few minutes later, Albert said angrily, "Why don't you say that after eating candy, your whole body will expand into a balloon?"

"I think the tongue is more interesting." Fred opened his mouth wide, sticking out his tongue and gasping. "It's best if the tongue gets bigger and bigger."

"Are you the devil?"

"Don't drool all over the place," complained Lee Jordan angrily.

"I think it would be more interesting to become a balloon."

"It's easier to cast a spell directly, but to turn it into candy, I'm afraid I can only rely on magic potions or other methods." Albert said, "Also, have you considered the dangers of these joke props?"

"Dangerous, is it dangerous?" George obviously didn't think so. "Most adult wizards can easily remove the expansion magic."

"Yes, this is just a fun joke prop. As long as it doesn't flow into the Muggle world, there will be no other problems." Fred agreed.

Magic is undoubtedly dangerous to ordinary people. Even an ordinary prank may bring disaster to them, such as the expansion spell. Once a person is inflated, without the help of magic, his life is probably over. But for For a wizard who knows magic, it might just be a fun joke.

At this moment, Albert suddenly understood why the Ministry of Magic prohibited underage wizards from using magic outside of school.

Once something bad happens, people from the Ministry of Magic will come to help wipe the mess. Once there is too much noise, it will be even more troublesome. In a wizard's family, the children's parents will naturally solve these problems themselves.

"You couldn't have made that thing, right?" Angelina stared at the guys in front of her suspiciously. Listening to the topic they just discussed, it was really possible. Moreover, that guy is the most suspicious.

Angelina looked at Albert with suspicion, who was still flipping through the Brick book in his hand.

"By the way, did you know? The price of anti-swelling agents on the black market has increased again." Shanna suddenly changed the subject.

"Black market, damn it, why didn't I think of that!" Fred heard Shanna talk about the anti-swelling agent, and was quite annoyed that he didn't think of this way of making money.

"Come on, I dare say no one dares to drink the anti-swelling agent you brewed." Shanna couldn't help rolling her eyes at Fred when she heard this, "If it's Albert, forget it, but you're sure no one will drink it." If you dare to buy and drink, what should you do if you get poisoned after drinking it?"

"My potion is pretty good," Fred said immediately.

"How do I remember that you failed the potions homework last time and were sent to solitary confinement by Professor Snape?" Angelina, who was playing wizard cards with Zannah, unceremoniously exposed Fred's lies.

"Will someone really be poisoned by using an anti-swelling agent?" Angelina was curious about what level of skill it would take to turn an anti-swelling agent into poison.

"Once the preparation method of potions is wrong, it may indeed turn into a pot of poison, and the anti-swelling agent is no exception, otherwise the anti-swelling agent on the black market of Hogwarts would not be a big hit." Albert was not very surprised, " Maybe some unlucky guy will be poisoned after drinking the magic potion he prepared!"

"Shut up, don't talk nonsense!" George said.

"Ah, it's too late." Li Jordan covered his face with his hands, looking completely finished.

"What's wrong with you?" Aaliya looked at the three of them in confusion.

"Don't you know, Albert's words are more accurate than his predictions." Fred explained, "Especially those bad things, they are always accurate."

It turns out that Albert's words are really poisonous.

The next day, a third-year Hufflepuff student developed symptoms of mild poisoning after using a self-prepared anti-swelling agent and was sent directly to the school hospital.

When Snape heard this, his nose was almost crooked with anger. When he saw that his student was poisoned by drinking the potion he brewed, he threatened to put him in confinement for a month after he recovered.

That idiot had totally disgraced him.

"What I said is right!" Fred said to the stunned Angelina helplessly after hearing this. Then, he was ready to continue researching the formula of the anti-swelling agent. He had not given up the idea of ​​selling the anti-swelling agent to make money.

"I think you should say Golan Findo must win every day now." Angelina said to Albert seriously.

"I don't think you can win!"

"Shut up, bastard, don't say such nonsense!" George reached out and covered Albert's mouth, trying to make him swallow his words again.

"If we really lose, it will definitely be Albert's fault." Fred looked sad.

"Okay, stop making trouble." Albert interrupted a few people who wanted to say something, "Give up, there is no shortage of anti-swelling agents in the black market, and even if you can really succeed, there is nothing you can do about it. No matter how much money you make, stop messing around.

"How much does a bottle of anti-swelling agent cost?" Li Jordan asked curiously.

"3 siko per bottle." It was Alia who answered them. She took out a glass bottle containing anti-swelling agent from her pocket, "This stuff was very popular in the black market a while ago."

Ever since Madam Pomfrey told everyone the secret of swollen sausage lips, many people will carry a bottle of anti-swelling potion with them to prevent themselves from being accidentally infected. No one wants others to laugh at it.

"Why is this mark so familiar?" Lee Jordan looked at the A.A mark on the bottle.

"A.A."

Everyone looked at Albert.

"Well, I cooked a big pot last time, kept one bottle for myself, gave some to others, and sold the rest." Albert didn't hide anything. In fact, he had no intention of selling anti-swelling agents. Later, one time he was also tricked. After taking out the medicine to eliminate the swelling, someone asked him where he got it from, and then... Albert casually set a price and sold the anti-swelling medicine to them.

Of course, the glass bottle used in the potion comes from the transfiguration spell and the copying spell.

"Wow, by the way, you didn't tell us about the black market?"

Hogwarts has a black market, and some students occasionally trade contraband with each other through the black market, such as some items from Zuko's shop, or some illegal potions, or gadgets used to inflict harm.

Of course, there are also books on black magic, and occasionally someone will ask for help in preparing some intelligence-enhancing agents.

However, this potion can be easily detected during exams, and there are several such unlucky people in Hogwarts every year.
