Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Chapter 72 Activation Key

There are no classes in the afternoon.

Lin Xia and Draco decided to check out the laboratory they applied for.

If possible, they would make preparations for the experiment today and start the subject as soon as possible.

They have been waiting for a long time to wait for the laboratory to come down.

The laboratory is located in another corridor on the second floor, one to the left and one to the right of the class corridor.

Unless the little wizard gets lost, he will rarely go to this corridor.

Lin Xia also discovered the anomaly of this empty classroom when she was brought to this corridor by the movable staircase while exploring Hogwarts through the movable staircase on the weekend.

Opening it with the key given by the professor, Draco and Lin Xia walked in and couldn't help but exclaimed.

This empty classroom is much larger than expected, it is actually the size of four football fields!

Draco's serious expression revealed a smile, "This space must have used a traceless stretching spell, otherwise it would be difficult to explain that it looks like an ordinary classroom from the outside, but there is such a large space inside."

I don't know what he thought of, but he said: "I think we can open a zoo here!"

Lin Xia also smiled: "There is no need to open a zoo. It would be too troublesome, but I can set aside a special area and raise some magical creatures as our raw materials."

"Raw material object?"

Lin Xia reminded him: "You forgot, I applied for this laboratory based on the name of the magnetic wand, so the external statement is to research wands. Can't I prepare some animal hair to make wands?"

Having said that, Lin Xia thought of the three staff-making plans given in Zhiming Compass.

There is really no need to use the hair of magical creatures, but they all need magical plants.

Draco cheered up and said, "I'm going to take measurements now and make a plan."

Lin Xia said in an orderly manner: "Don't worry, what did your father say in the letter? You were absent-minded while eating. You were distracted when Toure and Robin talked to you."

A wry smile flashed across Draco's face, "I really can't hide it from you."

"Speak out and listen, maybe I can help you."

The Malfoy family had helped her a lot, and coupled with the friendship between her parents, Lin Xia called Lucius "uncle" sincerely.

However, facing Draco, who was born one month earlier than her, she couldn't call him "brother".

I have no choice but to accept being a kid.

From childhood to adulthood, from the past to the present, she has always been the boss.

Seeing this, Draco said it directly: "I received a letter from my father. The letter seemed to be ordinary, but my father used the family secret language."

code word?

Lin Xia looked a little more serious.

"What happened to the Malfoy family?" she asked.

Draco shook his head: "The family is fine, but my father wants me to strive to be a top student as soon as possible, and if possible, seek your help when necessary.

I could feel that he was in a hurry when he wrote this letter, and he made a few wrong words. It was not elegant at all, which is very unusual. "

It's okay to make him a top student.

But there are problems with getting him to become an honor student as quickly as possible.

It would be no problem for him to seek help from Lin Xia.

But there is definitely something wrong with using the wrong words in an eager tone.

In Draco's impression, his father was always unhurried and slow, and his manner of speaking had an aristocratic quality.

Before Draco truly admired Lin Xia, all his actions were imitating his father.

So this letter is very un-Lucius.

Lin Xia asked: "Did he reveal anything to you?"

Draco shook his head: "No, that's why I'm a little anxious." Lin Xia thought for a while and said: "Calm down first, if something really happens, your father will definitely tell you.

Now that he has not come to you, it proves that the matter has not reached the point of irreversibility and that he can solve it. "

Her parents were exploring the Amazon forest, and even if she wrote to ask, they were out of reach.

"So, what you can do now is to follow his requirements as much as possible and become an excellent student as quickly as possible."

Lin Xia does not exclude Draco from becoming an outstanding student.

As her chosen partner, the better Draco is, the more he can help her with many things.

She is even willing to give away her skills and doesn't care about a place for top students.

Moreover, Hogwarts' system for cultivating outstanding students is not without loopholes.

For example, the school stipulates that research talents must produce one experimental result a year.

However, the school does not require that the results of this experiment should reach a certain level, whether they can be sold outside or be improved compared to previous results.

Also, the school does not require students to produce any research records, or even to write a thesis.

Well, the problem is coming.

How do you know whether the experimental results were produced by the students themselves or purchased from somewhere else?

The wizarding world is not without its poor people.

It is not surprising that some wizards are obsessed with studying magic and spend all their money on magic. As a result, they are unable to avoid danger when encountering disasters and have to sell their experimental results.

Even in the process of selecting outstanding students at Hogwarts, there are many loopholes that can be exploited.

If the ability to publish papers in professional journals is used as the criterion for selecting research talents, then if the paper is purchased by a student through other channels and published as the owner, it is not impossible.

After all, not every paper requires a press conference.

All in all, there are too many loopholes to exploit.

She believed that Hogwarts had no shortage of clever people with scheming intentions.

Draco's thoughts were prompted by Lin Xia, and he made up his mind. He immediately measured the area of ​​the empty classroom and drew a floor plan.

He plans to leave the layout to professionals.

As for construction, you can ask professors for help when necessary.

Draco was suddenly glad that he was assigned to Hufflepuff. The professors in their college were very talkative and willing to help them.

If it were Professor Snape...

Draco shook his head, forget it.

On the other side, Lin Xia found a secret door in the empty classroom and walked in to check.

It was empty and about half the size of an ordinary classroom.

She asked Draco to let her out, closed the door, and planned to activate the secret key here.

The secret key is not in the shape of a key, but a black card.

One side is blank, and the other side has silver stars and the moon, a golden sun, and many unknown celestial bodies flying around the sun and moon.

The activation ritual was not complicated, and Professor Sprout gave her a small note.

The handwriting on the note was very sloppy, as if it was written casually by a professor.

[Insert the Hogwarts top student badge into a certain position on the secret key card, and the secret key will be automatically activated. You can use the badge to browse related information]

Lin Xia turned over the card, and she didn't see any unevenness.

But when she touched it, she found an uneven spot.
