Daily Life at Hogwarts

Chapter 562 New Discovery (2)

After parting from Hetok, Albert and Isobel went to the Three Broomsticks.Now that we're all in Hogsmeade, why would we miss a drink at the Three Broomsticks?
The bar was noisy and crowded, but it was also warm, with a fire burning brightly in the fireplace.

Albert inadvertently caught a glimpse of Fred, George, and Lee Jordan who were drinking in the corner. They were whispering together, and they didn't seem to notice him and Isobel.

Albert found a vacant seat and went to the counter to ask Ms. Rosmerta for two butterbeers.Although this is a bar, minors are not served alcoholic beverages other than butter beer.

Albert felt that the bar could actually sell some low-alcohol rum, which would definitely be very popular with girls. As we all know, girls' Galleons are far more profitable than boys'.

However, most liqueurs in Europe are wines, and Ms Rosmerta is clearly not selling wine to students.

Speaking of sweet wine, Albert thought of the glutinous rice wine from his previous life. It was one of the few wines he liked. It tasted like a drink, but it was not easy to store.

"What are you thinking about?"

Isobel noticed that Albert was actually distracted while chatting with him, so he couldn't help but raised his eyebrows slightly and asked.

"There is a very good liqueur among Muggles, maybe we can let the house elves try to brew some." Albert said suddenly.

Anyway, the house elf didn't have much to do when he was staying in the manor. Finding something to do for him could better mobilize his enthusiasm, and he also believed that the house elf would be happy to master another skill.

"Is the rum delicious?" Isobel was very interested in the rum that Albert said.

"Well, it's a bit like a drink, you'll like it." Albert had already figured out how to get the glutinous rice, and I believe Mundungus would be willing to help him get it.

After the two finished drinking, they walked around Hogsmeade again and bought Nia a birthday present before returning to Hogwarts Castle.

Before leaving, Albert did not forget to remind, "There may be an accident in the castle today, remember not to run around."

"Understood, you should be careful yourself."

Isobel felt very strange, but he didn't intend to run away. There must be some reason for Albert to say that, maybe he predicted something again.

If it was a student of Gryffindor, hearing what he said, he would probably be ready to die long ago.

As soon as they returned to the common room, Fred, George and Lee Jordan appeared without warning.

"Failed!"

Fred said straight to the point: "However, Mr. Zuko is very interested in the wizard card, and it seems that he intends to cooperate with us."

"That's a pity." Albert was not at all interested in this unequal cooperation.

"You seem to have guessed it a long time ago?" George raised his eyebrows and looked at Albert a little depressed.

When they went to Zoko, they were completely ignored. That guy was extremely arrogant in some ways.

At least, all three think so.

"If you don't have any money, who will help you?" Albert gave Li Qiaodan a blank look, without shy away from this.

Most people are profit-seeking, not to mention Zuko himself is a businessman, and it is strange how many people he would pay attention to if he asks him for advice and does not give him any benefits.

"Okay, don't worry about it." Albert said with a smile, "Zoko won't want a similar store to compete with him, so it's normal to have a bad impression of you. If your store becomes popular in the future, maybe His shop is going out of business."

"So it is."

The three of them were still a little depressed, and felt that if Albert went, the situation would be better.

"Okay, be happy. I'm going to attend the Halloween banquet later, isn't there a skeleton dance troupe?" Albert took out candy from his pocket and stuffed it into the hands of several people.

The Halloween dinner started at seven o'clock, and Albert planned to take the time to write a letter to the thief Mundungus.

Of course, Albert didn't expect Mundungus to find the right thing in one go, but with enough Garen, he believed that Mr. Thief would be willing to help.

After all, money can turn ghosts around, not to mention getting someone to help find something?
So, before seven o'clock, Albert and his roommates went directly to the auditorium. On the way, they met the Harry Potter trio. They left the crowd and walked towards the underground classroom.

"Where are they going?"

Looking at the backs of the three leaving, Lee Jordan asked suspiciously.

"Of course to attend the ghost banquet." Albert ignored the three of Harry and walked straight towards the crowded auditorium.

There is a huge pumpkin lantern in the corner of the auditorium, and a large group of bats are flying around the enchanted ceiling. The most eye-catching thing is probably the stage in front, where a large area has been vacated. The hazy fog blocked everyone's sight,
Many people looked over there, and they knew that the Skeleton Dance Company was behind the mist.

Not long after, the banquet opened under the auspices of Dumbledore, with the singing of the Skeleton Dance Troupe, and the audience burst into thunderous applause.

Albert looked up towards the stage, and saw a bunch of musical instruments on the stage, and a wizard in heavy metal-style costumes began to speak to adjust the atmosphere, surrounded by a large group of students like fanatical groupies.

It really was heavy metal music, and the sound echoed in Albert's ears. It's a pity that he just doesn't have the ability to appreciate it. When everyone was shouting wildly, he slowly cut the steak and stuffed it into his mouth.

"I don't know why they're so famous," murmured Shanna, one of the few Gryffindors who didn't come forward to watch.

"Maybe it's the charm of music!" Albert glanced at the parchment in his hand. Ginny Weasley had disappeared from the map and had apparently entered the secret room.

"Do you believe this?" Shanna looked at Albert with a strange expression.

The singing lasted for more than a quarter of an hour. The Skeleton Dance Troupe sang three songs to the students before leaving the stage under everyone's reluctant eyes.

Everyone else returned to their respective places to enjoy the exquisite banquet.

Probably the skeleton dance troupe attracted everyone's attention, but no one noticed that the savior Potter was missing.

The food at the dinner party was exquisite. After Albert was full, he began to think about a question.

The basilisk incident insisted that no one died from the beginning to the end. Is it an accident or intentional?
Does Tom Riddle really not know?
There are many things that really cannot stand scrutiny!
So many coincidences put together, it can't be a coincidence.

Moreover, Albert suspects that Tom Riddle must also have the human footprint spell, otherwise how could the other party accurately attack the target without being noticed by others?
"Damn."

Thinking of this, Albert was in a bad mood. He felt that he needed to master the advanced shielding spell as soon as possible, so that he could disappear directly from the map of the human trace spell. Only in this way could he ensure that he would not be specifically targeted.

If he uses a high-level shielding spell to block his own existence, it will be difficult for the owl to find him, and he has a lot of owl letters, so it is impossible for him to give up contact with other people, so he must find another way.
