The Admiral of Hogwarts
#244 - Meet
"Why are there still books like this this year?" Hugo asked, puzzled, looking at a green book bound with a belt, because the cover of the book had the title 'The Monster Book of Monsters' written in gold letters.
If he remembered correctly, Veneto should have communicated with Hagrid about this, so Hugo was a little strange as to why Hagrid still chose this book this year.
"I communicated with Hagrid, but the other party still firmly believes that this book is the most suitable textbook now." After receiving Hugo's inquiry, Veneto said somewhat helplessly through the admiral network.
"However, after I told him that this book is not easier to deal with than a cat, and it may be more troublesome for some Muggle-born students, he agreed to tell the students through the bookstore how to deal with this book."
"Actually, the content of this book is not bad, which at least shows from the side that Hagrid's professional level is not bad." Hermione also commented on the book to Hugo at this time.
"And touching the spine of the book before reading it to calm the book down is also a very good practice, fully reminding us of the uncontrollable side of magical creatures and that as long as we master the corresponding technology, then we can also coexist harmoniously with them."
Obviously, under the premise that she was not suddenly attacked by this book, Hermione would still carefully read the book and then give a relatively fair evaluation.
"So, you're saying that the content of this book is good?" Hugo asked curiously, looking at the trembling book.
Because his impression of 'The Monster Book of Monsters' was that it would attack people like a beast, and touching the spine would calm it down. But he didn't know much about the content of the book.
"Indeed, it's not bad." Hermione nodded and said. "This book has a very complete description of the habits of various magical creatures, and it involves a lot of knowledge that standard textbook-style books such as 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them' would not involve."
The next morning, Hugo met Harry at Hood's shop. Since moving into Hood's house, Harry has come here almost every day to do homework or practice magic.
"This is your birthday present." After exchanging a few pleasantries with Harry, "Hugo took out a small package from his body and handed it over.
"Sorry it's a little late, because I've been busy visiting several alchemy masters, so after buying the gift at the beginning, I haven't had time to send it out."
"It's okay." Harry shook his head with a smile, because Hermione had also complained that Hugo hadn't written to his family, so Harry knew that Hugo had been very busy recently.
"This is—" After opening the package, Harry unexpectedly found that it contained a Quidditch magazine from half a year ago, with some Japanese he didn't recognize written on it.
"This is a Japanese Quidditch monthly magazine from half a year ago, 'Today's Quidditch'." Hugo pointed to the book and said.
"However, unlike ordinary magazines, this magazine has the signatures of all the members and coaches of the current Wind Bridge Tengu team on the title page, and it is one of the 50 signed special editions."
"Ah, thank you so much." Harry opened the title page and glanced at the rows of signatures above, revealing a look of surprise. "This year's Wind Bridge Tengu team is very powerful, and if there are no accidents, they are likely to win the International Quidditch Club Cup."
"I'm glad you like it." A smile appeared on Hugo's face. This magazine was prepared with the help of Enterprise and came from the spoils auction seized by the White Robe Society.
People who participated in the auction basically were not interested in this kind of thing, so Enterprise, disguised as Hugo's California, bought a lot of this kind of thing at the reserve price.
Things like magazines that cost three to five Galleons can be given to friends as important gifts, while more expensive things like a Quidditch star's used jersey or even a flying broomstick are sold in Insubordinate's shop.
Of course, some selected souvenirs will be placed in the restaurant opened by Retort and Unicorn in Hogsmeade, and used as decorations for some themed boxes to attract guests.
"How was your summer vacation?" After everyone was sitting in the attic, Hugo asked Harry. "After I came back, I heard that something happened to you, and you accidentally blew up your aunt."
"It's not Harry's fault." Hermione, who had learned about the details in advance, said before Harry could answer. "What his aunt said at the time was too much, and Harry didn't use his wand."
"If that's the case, then the other party has indeed gone too far." Hearing this, Hugo nodded in agreement. For wizards who have not undergone wandless magic training, they can only cast their spells in extremely emotional situations.
And the fact that Harry was able to blow up his aunt in this situation can only mean that his aunt's words were really terrible at the time, so that Harry's emotions were completely out of control.
"Now that I think about it, I should have been calmer at the time." Hearing Hugo say this, Harry scratched his hair embarrassedly. "After all, it's not a good idea to cause trouble for everyone like this."
"So, in other words, the signature on your Hogsmeade permission slip is gone, right?" After the few people laughed, Hugo said.
"Yes, that's what I regret the most." Harry shrugged helplessly.
"As far as I know, this only pure wizard village in the British wizarding world has a lot of interesting things. For example, the maid at Hood's house opened a small restaurant in Hogsmeade."
"Don't worry, that restaurant has a delivery service. After adding a warming charm, the food brought back will be the same as freshly made." Hermione comforted at this time, "If you want to buy anything by then, Hugo and I can help you bring it."
"Or ask the Weasley twins for help." Before Hermione could finish her words, Hugo added from the side. "I've heard several upperclassmen say that they saw them in Hogsmeade when the twins were in the first grade."
This information was not fabricated by Hugo. It is indeed difficult for ordinary people to attract attention when they enter Hogsmeade among the large group of students on Hogsmeade Day, but the twins are too conspicuous.
"Hugo!" Before Hugo could finish speaking, Hermione turned her head and glared at her brother, "You shouldn't encourage Harry to break the school rules, especially in the current situation—"
"Okay, okay, I was wrong." After being yelled at by his sister, Hugo quickly admitted his mistake, and then changed the topic and said, "Why do you have two schoolbags?"
"Oh, don't I have more elective courses than you?" Hermione said, "Those are the textbooks and reference books for Arithmancy, Care of Magical Creatures, and Ancient Runes—"
"Seriously, there are not many valuable reference books on Ancient Runes on the market now, and the valuable ones are often regarded as treasures by those pure-blood families and are not taken out." After hearing Hermione's book list, Hugo subconsciously complained.
"But this is already the best book written on the market." Hermione shrugged somewhat helplessly and said, "I don't know where to find the ones you mentioned."
"This is easy to handle." Hugo said, taking out a handwritten notebook from his bag.
"This was shared with me by Veneto. His sister has a friend who is an expert in this field, so she has a lot of research in this area. And she doesn't mind sharing this knowledge with others."
