Study Days at Hogwarts

"I think so." Albert couldn't help but smile, glanced sideways at the passing ghost, raised his hand and said hello: "Good morning, Sir Nicholas."

"Good morning kid, what's up?"

"Sir, are you free to let me take a photo?" Albert asked, raising his camera.

"Oh, okay!" Nick thought for a moment and asked, "Do you need to pose?"

"No, come on, look here." Albert adjusted an angle and clicked at Nick.

"Is it okay?"

"That's all. Thank you Sir Nicholas."

"You're welcome, I'll leave first!" Nick floated away quickly.

Angelina came closer to see what Albert's photos had taken, but there was nothing in the photos.

"It seems that ghosts cannot be captured with a Muggle camera. Perhaps a wizard's camera can." Albert wrote Sir Nicholas de Mimsy Porpington behind the photo.

"Thank you for remembering his name." Angelina admired Albert's memory, at least she herself would not be able to remember this string of names.

"It's not the camera's problem." A voice said.

Albert turned his head and saw a beautiful red-haired girl who had just walked into the auditorium. She noticed that several people were looking at her and explained, "The photos need to use the correct developing potion so that the people inside can move. Also, ghosts are spirits and they cannot be caught on camera.”

After saying that, the girl walked towards the Ravenclaw table.

"Wow, you really deserve to be a Ravenclaw student, you know so much." George said exaggeratedly.

"It's indeed amazing." Albert sighed, looked at Angelina and extended an invitation, "After you finish eating, don't you want to go to other places in the school with us?"

"Forget it." Angelina hesitated for a moment, but still refused, "I have an appointment with someone else."

"That's a shame." Albert picked up a piece of fruit and ate it while thinking about how to get the developing potion.

The number of students in the auditorium gradually increased, and most of them were freshmen. Perhaps because of the weekend, the senior students slept late, but the freshmen could not wait to visit the school.

After bidding farewell to Angelina, the four of them walked out of the auditorium chatting. As they passed the foyer, they all noticed Filch holding the cat and staring at the four of them.

Albert stopped and found an additional task prompt on his panel:

Malice from administrators.

You have been targeted by Filch, the administrator of Hogwarts. It’s time to fight back. During the night tour, escape from the pursuit of administrator Filch and let him understand that even if he targets you, he can’t catch you. Any clues.

Reward: 1000 experience.

After reading the mission, Albert couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He found that after arriving at Hogwarts, triggering panel missions seemed to become a little more frequent.

"What's wrong?" Fred turned around and asked in confusion.

"Nothing." Albert walked a few steps quickly to keep up with the team. The four of them crossed the damp viaduct, and he suddenly asked, "Do you know the spell of the Disguise Curse?"

"What is that?" George asked doubtfully.

"It is said to be a kind of invisibility magic." Albert explained, "I read in a book that this invisibility spell can make the person or object being disguised become like a chameleon."

"Sounds cool." George was interested in the magic spell. "If you can master it, you won't have to worry about being caught when you go out at night."

"I think so too, at least I don't have to worry about Filch." Albert nodded, and he planned to master the Disguise Spell before traveling at night.

"But how do we get the spell?" Fred was a little depressed. "Dad may know, but he will definitely not tell us."

"How about asking the professor?" Li suggested.

"For the time being, we can only go to the library to find it." Albert said, "Of course, if you can't find it, you can ask the Charms Professor, but I'm a little doubtful whether he is willing to teach us this spell. After all, he may associate it with night travel. "

Several people looked at each other and sighed helplessly. If they could master this magic, it would be much easier to do many things in the future.

Albert stopped by the viaduct, put his hands on the railings and looked down. He still remembered the end of the novel, where Harry Potter broke the Elder Wand and threw it off the bridge.

That prodigal son.

The Elder Wand is a good thing. Even if you don't use it, you can always find an unknown place to hide it.

That was the real artifact in the Harry Potter novels, and the other was the Philosopher's Stone. As a result, both good things were destroyed.

"Anyway, let's find the library first."

"Even if we find it, we probably won't be able to learn it for the time being?" Li said a little discouraged. He didn't forget that he didn't even master the simplest magic.

"Don't say such depressing words." Albert glanced at Li and said with contempt, "How do you think I master other magics?"

"How did you do it?" the twins asked curiously.

"Of course you have to spend a lot of time practicing, otherwise do you expect to learn it instantly?" Albert said angrily.

The four of them chatted about the Illusion Body Curse while walking. They wandered around the first floor of the castle for a long time and found several empty classrooms where debris was piled up, as well as places that seemed to be secret passages, but none of them opened the secret passages. All four were very depressed.

"Most of the secret passages require specific passwords or special rhythms to be opened." Albert explained to the three of them as they walked. "If you want to find it, you can only try your luck or ask other people who know the secret passages, but I I bet they won’t tell us easily.”

"Transfiguration classroom." George reminded, "I remember Professor McGonagall taught Transfiguration."

Li Qiaodan whispered: "I heard that this course is very difficult to learn."

"It is indeed a bit difficult." Albert also discovered this when he was studying on his own. It took him the most time to turn a match into a needle, but after learning it, most of the transformation techniques actually became not that difficult.

Of course, it may also be related to his panel skills.

The four of them found the History of Magic classroom on the second floor of the castle. Fortunately, the classrooms were marked, otherwise they would not have known where to look.

"There is a wooden door here. I think it should be a secret passage." Lee Jordan pointed excitedly at the entrance hidden behind the stone statue.

"It seems locked." Albert pulled out his wand and used Alajo to open the wooden door in front of him.

"Your spell has failed." Fred stretched out his hand and twisted it, but it still didn't open.

"I guess some password is needed to open it." Albert muttered.

"What do you think the password usually is?" Lee Jordan asked.

"How could I know?" Albert rolled his eyes at Li, then thought for a moment and said, "The most famous secret door command in the Muggle world is Open Sesame. This story comes from Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves."

At this point, Albert's wand happened to knock on the wooden door.

The next moment, the wooden board on the door was ripped off its hinges, and was about to shatter into a pile of firewood.

The four of them couldn't help but open their mouths, and their eyes almost protruded from their sockets. They had no idea what had just happened.
