The Alchemist of Harry Potter

"Recently, don't eat beef."

Albert stared at the evening news that was playing on the TV, frowned slightly, and said to Grandpa Luke, who was sitting across from him while reading the newspaper and teasing the cat.

"We haven't eaten beef for a long time, and no one dares to eat beef now."

Sansa put the sliced ​​fruit bowl on the table and watched the news on the TV as the announcer was struggling to talk about mad cow disease.

Since the outbreak of mad cow disease in the United Kingdom in May, the government has still not found the cause of mad cow disease, and the symptoms have a tendency to spread to other countries. "

"They must have found the reason, but they dare not tell the truth. 80% of the time is the problem with the cattle's feed." Albert put a piece of pineapple in his mouth, and the taste was not bad.

It is said that pineapples used to be very valuable in Europe, and only rich people could afford them, so many rich Europeans like to eat pineapples or candied pineapples.

Of course, they like to cook pineapple as a dish.

Under Albert's strong suggestion, the Anderson family has changed the way they eat pineapple. Instead of cooking pineapple as a dish, they will cut the pineapple and soak it in salt water for more than half an hour, then take it out and taste it as a fruit. There will be no sour taste.

"Feed?" Luke was surprised, didn't understand why Albert said that, did he know anything?

But... What can Albert know, he is now in the magic world most of the time.

"Cannibalism."

Albert remembered that the cause of mad cow disease was cannibalism. "I remember seeing it somewhere. It is said that the indigenous people of a certain island have the custom of eating the internal organs of the dead, and they have very serious similar symptoms."

"Don't be so scary, okay?"

Nia, with wet hair just after taking a shower, came out of the bathroom wearing a pale pink nightdress, wiping her wet hair with a dry towel, and took a piece of Poirot from the plate and put it in her mouth, asking, "Come on. That kind of beauty potion, do you still have it there?"

"Have you run out of those?" Albert was very surprised. He remembered that he had prepared a lot of those things for the family last time.

"It was taken away by my mother, she asked me to ask you for it." Nia sat next to Albert, rubbing her hair with a dry towel, her face flushed with a hint of helplessness, her beauty medicine It's almost used up, and the girls are very concerned about their appearance.

"I still have some, you can use them first, and I'll recreate them for you next time when you have time." Albert felt a faint rose scent coming from his face, which was the shampoo and shower gel on Nia's body scent.

Isobel's shampoo had a hint of cloves in her shampoo, which she liked the last time she was in France, for which Albert bought her a dozen.

Nia's body suddenly leaned forward and looked up and down in front of Albert.

"What's wrong?"

Albert reached out and gently pushed Nia's little face away.

"I'm just curious that you actually use this thing." Nia said and reached out to pull Albert's cheek, as if to see if someone was disguised as Albert.

"Of course I also care a little about my image. Since I can become a handsome guy, who wants to be ugly?"

Of course, Albert also uses beauty agents. He will apply it a little when washing his face, and the effect is not bad. At least, you don't have to worry about pimples anymore. Seventeen and eighteen-year-old young men and women are prone to this problem. No one likes their face full of pimples.

In a way, Albert is more like a little white face than Diggory, but no one dares to call him that.

"Don't you need a hair dryer?" Albert changed the topic. "Blow it, it's easier for your hair to dry, and you're going to sleep later."

"Aren't you going to take a shower first?" Nia asked back.

"Um."

Albert went to the bathroom, and he planned to simply rinse it so that the summer night would not be so sultry. While soaking in the bathtub, Nia and Sansa were talking outside. They were discussing the news on the TV, as if they were saying that beef is also prohibited in the food at the school.

"These times are scary.

"

Albert sighed softly, he remembered that mad cow disease was contagious to humans.

Although milk does not seem to be contagious, this incident directly caused him to lose his appetite for drinking milk in the morning.

When Albert came out of the bathroom after taking a bath, mad cow disease was still being reported on TV, and an expert was chatting with the broadcaster.

To be honest, Albert instinctively hates the term expert.

In a previous life, there was a saying that "experts are dogs", and most of the things that can appear on TV screens are this kind of stuff.

"Mad cow disease is contagious to humans." Albert moved Tom aside and said to the three who were watching TV, "Just listen to the next expert talk show, 99% of these guys are paid. , or it was thrown out by the government to quell the incident.”

"Really?" Nia couldn't help shivering, "Then we used to..."

"Don't worry, it's generally not that easy to get infected, just don't touch it in the future." Albert reached out and touched Nia's head, comforting softly.

"What's the reason?" Luke put down the newspaper and frowned and asked, "Why is there a large-scale outbreak of this symptom in the country?"

"It is said that the feed merchants mixed some crumbs containing cow viscera and body parts into the feed to provide protein for the veal cattle." Albert said, picking up a kitten from under his feet and playing with its ears. : "This is probably the source of this disaster."

"Those people really do anything for money." Luke looked angry, and today's ordinary people are very disturbed when they talk about this, and no one dares to eat beef anymore.

"It's useless for you to be angry here. The government obviously doesn't want ordinary people to know about this, so it asks experts to come forward to calm the turmoil." Shana said to the two: "You should rest early too."

"Um."

After the two old people returned to the master bedroom, Albert turned off the TV and said to Nia beside him, "Okay, you can go to bed too, staying up late is not good for your skin."

"Don't think I don't know what you want to do." Nia pouted, "Someone always sneaks out on dates at night."

"I lock the door at night," Albert said.

"Last time I looked for a cat, you weren't in the bedroom." Nia's eyes flashed with victory, "Actually, you can bring her directly to stay at home for a few days, Grandpa Luke and Grandma Sansa will probably be very happy. Glad you brought your girlfriend back."

"Isobel plans to publish a book, and I occasionally go over to give her some advice." Albert coughed lightly, "After all, I also have a copy of that book."

"I thought you would bite to death and refuse to admit it, thinking that your lovely sister was fooling you."

"You forgot, I can easily read other people's minds." Albert stretched out his hand to mess with Nia and said with a smile, "If you have anything, just say it directly."

"I saw a dress in a magazine, and I hope it will be my birthday present." Nia got a magazine from nowhere, and pointed to the beautiful dress on it and said to Albert.

"Your birthday is still a few months away," Albert reminded.

"It should be paid in advance." Nia said.

"Excessive consumption is not good." Albert reached out and picked up the "Daily Prophet" from the table, looked at Nia and asked, "Didn't Herb give you 10,000 pocket money, you have spent all of it?"

"I used it to buy some funds and stocks to test the water, and Uncle Charlie helped me get an account." Nia pouted and said, "So, I have no money to buy things now, so I can only ask you to advance my birthday present in advance. ."

"You're not afraid to lose all your money." Albert was speechless, because Nia didn't lie, she was really studying the economy, finance and how to make money in business recently, but most of the time she was making small losses.

"It always takes money to try and make mistakes, but not everyone can predict the future like you." Nia said confidently, "I need to accumulate experience and understand the situation."

"That's true, but if you want to try and make mistakes, you can go to the East with Herb, where the cost of trial and error is small, and it is relatively easy to make money, especially with start-up capital, it is easy to make money when you find the right direction, no matter what you do in the future. Even if you don’t understand, you can lie down and collect money.”

"No wonder Mom ran over." Nia suddenly understood why Daisy went to the East, if it was really like what Albert said.

"Okay, birthday present." Albert glanced at the price of the dress in the magazine and said to Nia, "It's been a long time since we went shopping together."

"Oh, I knew Albert was the best!" Nia said excitedly, and even hugged Albert and kissed his face, "I'll tell Grandpa Luke about going shopping tomorrow."

"I really like to take advantage of me." Albert shook his head.

After returning to the bedroom, Albert tried to get in touch with Isobel through the double-sided mirror. While waiting for a response, he picked up today's "Prophet Newspaper" and flipped through it, but was caught by an article in the newspaper. It attracted attention, and even Isobel's voice was temporarily blocked by him.

This is impossible!

Pettigrew Peter is actually dead?
