This Hogwarts isn't normal.

On Sunday, Vincent finally got away from his busy study routine. ✿.｡.:* ☆:**:. .:**:.☆*.:｡.✿

Ancient runes are complex, and each stroke can contain a wealth of information.

Court of Owls Room.

"Are you willing to show your face?" The twins raised their little heads high, as if to express their dissatisfaction.

"I've always shown my face, okay." Vincent walked up to the ring and flicked the spotless sandbag with his hand.

Percy really understands him, and it seems like he cleans it every day.

"Can that be called showing off?" George curled his lips, "Malfoy and the others have been very proud of themselves recently."

He jumped down and said, "Just let them have fun."

Across the aisle, you can feel the cheerful atmosphere in the activity room opposite.

Fred smiled evilly, "Are we going to take any action?"

"Are you stuffed up?"

Vincent looked at them carefully, "Forget it, Christmas vacation is coming soon, let's wait until next semester."

The twins' faces were full of envy and jealousy.

Nico Flamel's invitation was something that even the wealthy Malfoy family couldn't get.

"You didn't tell anyone everywhere, did you?"

"Of course not."

Fred and George were laughing and joking on the surface, but they still knew what to do at critical moments.

Voldemort is not the only dark wizard in the wizarding world who is interested in the Philosopher's Stone. They all know that the consequences of telling the truth will be serious.

"A hand of Gwent?"

"No, I have to look at Nico's notes.

"Didn't you just finish learning ancient runes?"

"I'm just getting started."

The twins went to play cards with their little lips raised.

Vincent sat down helplessly.

To get along with this pair of living treasures, you must always improve your mental endurance.

As long as you come back without any trouble.

Except for some introductions and suggestions on alchemy, the notes Dumbledore gave him were all just short paragraphs of unexplained text.

This writing habit is very similar to the code of a computer system, but it is much more complicated than binary.

Nico's era obviously did not use the binary digits of computers. It should be one of ancient Egypt, ancient China, ancient India, or all three.

Vincent closed the note decisively.

It's Christmas in one week, so just ask me in person then.

He took out a book called "Introduction to Alchemy" from the small cloth bag with the Invisible Stretching Charm on it and flipped through it.

A famous Muggle scientist was an alchemist during his lifetime.

If this great scientist were a wizard, it would really be possible to reach Nico's height.

Alchemy is also very similar to Transfiguration, except that its duration and effect are more exaggerated.

While Vincent was flipping through the book, Higgs, who had been waiting for more than half a month, finally saw the light of day.

He came closer gently, with only the gray-blond hair on his forehead in his eyes.

One stick, just one stick.

The right hand he stretched out could already touch the ends of his hair.

"What a waste of money..." Vincent suddenly leaned back in his chair and closed the book that he had only read a few pages.

"Introduction to Alchemy" really teaches you how to get started, and the whole article is full of basic conversion formulas.

If you want to carry out practical operations, you have to spend a lot of money to purchase relevant materials.

Sulfur and mercury are not too expensive, but almost all formulas require the use of these two substances.

Go out and buy it!

Higgs once again summoned up the courage to reach out his hand, and Vincent stood up very suddenly.

what to do?

Just follow me.

"Where are you going?" Hermione walked into the activity room holding a stack of books.

"Go outside and get some fresh air."

She piled the books on an empty table and said, "Come together, I want to tell you something by the way."

Vincent probably guessed what it was.

Over the past half month, some supernatural events have often occurred in the activity room.

At first, the tables and chairs moved inexplicably, but later even the heavy sandbags began to shake inexplicably.

"Qiu said yesterday that she and Marietta had chosen a strange place these days. It was so warm that it felt like there was a stove underneath."

Hermione stopped in front of the large mirror in the secret passage on the fourth floor. "They looked and there was nothing underneath."

"It's weird."

"Right, before those things could be explained by ghosts, but the place where they appeared would only feel cold."

Vincent held his chin with one hand, looked in the mirror and began to think deeply.

If it wasn't a ghost, it could only be a human being.

"It's the Illusion Curse!" He turned around suddenly and looked towards the empty corridor.

Hermione's little face became wary, "A pervert has been mixed into the activity room?"

"Probably."

Both of them strode back.

Higgs, who was leaning against the wall, broke into a cold sweat.

He really thought he had been discovered just now.

The only blame is that he kept running into Autumn and Marietta while sweeping the floor in the past few days.

Once it happens too many times, any fool will know there is something wrong.

…

…

After searching through the Owl Court activity room with the Appearance Charm, sure enough, shoe prints of almost the same shape were found in the middle of each table.

Judging from the size, it should be for a sixth or seventh grade student.

Percy immediately called over the two years, as well as the Gryffindor student with larger feet.

After comparing one by one, the little lions were all ruled out as suspects.

"The only ones left are Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff..."

Vincent turned and looked at the Black Swan members who were gathered outside to watch the excitement.

If they did it, it couldn't be as simple as "a great gentleman".

Percy had obviously thought of this too.

Especially when he saw Marcus, who was also a prefect opposite him, grinning ferociously at him.

If the bright one doesn't work, why not change it to the yin one?

This great gentleman of Hogwarts must be caught!

Higgs, who was still under the Disillusionment Curse, certainly knew the seriousness of the matter.

The Court of Owls has been alerted, and it is impossible to sneak in like before.

He quietly returned to the Black Swan activity room.

Gryffindor students can enter and leave Slytherin's dormitories.

Slytherin students also have access to Gryffindor dormitories.

"Let's disperse first." Vincent put away the parchment engraved with complete footprints.

"Don't worry, everyone, I promise I will catch him."

Although the girls were all uneasy, they managed to calm down.

The twins and Hermione waited until they were almost separated before getting together.

"It must be those people who did it!"

Fred pursed his lips to the other side of the door, "There will definitely be rumors spread this afternoon, and we can't just watch them ruin the club's reputation."

"Maybe it's just a coincidence." Vincent thought from the perspective of the black swan.

"The student they hate most is me, but they can't attack openly, and sneak attacks have proven to be unworkable."

Hermione blurted out: "To ruin your reputation, it's best to use your appearance!"

"Polyjuice Potion." Vincent nodded happily, "This way, if it is me in the end, both the Court of Owls and I will be discredited."

The Apparition Charm can reveal the true appearance of many things, but Polyjuice Potion is not one of them.

"insidious!"

"mean!"

Fred and George both understood.

But it is a pity that as long as this "gentleman" is caught in advance, Black Swan will not only be busy in vain, but will also be labeled with various negative labels.
