School had just started, and what the professors handed over to the little wizards were basically theoretical things. Solim is already familiar with these, so he can spend a lot of time freely in the current very relaxed environment.

This morning, the owl had delivered what Solim was looking forward to. They only had classes in the morning all day on Friday, leaving Solim free to spend the afternoon and evening.

After lunch, Solim began to look for a person on campus - Argus Filch.

Filch is the caretaker of Hogwarts. He is a very bad-tempered, annoying person whose hobby is to antagonize students. Filch had a cat named Mrs. Norris, which was almost his entire spiritual sustenance. Like Filch, it also wanders in the various corridors of the castle all day long. As long as it finds that a student has made the slightest bit of trouble, Filch will quickly rush to the scene of the incident.

Filch is a squib, meaning he comes from a wizarding family but doesn't know magic. This situation also caused to a certain extent his terrible personality and hatred towards the little wizards. Hanging from the ceiling of his office are chains and handcuffs that he polished brightly, so that once he gets permission, he can use them to punish students who violate disciplines, which is his favorite thing to do.

Thorim came to Filch for one reason only: he was a squib.

Seriously, it's hard to find Filch when you're not causing trouble. Solim had already walked around, but still couldn't see any sign of Filch or Mrs. Norris. After asking about seven or eight portraits, Solim finally found Filch who was cleaning the graffiti on the wall.

Filch was already very old. He can't use magic and can only use brushes and cleaners to deal with dirt, not like a wizard:

"Cleaned up!"

Filch quickly turned around and stared at Solim. He thought this was a new trick.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Filch." Solim put away his wand.

"Get out of here, boy! Filch limped over with a brush with a long handle."Don't even think about laughing at me!""

"I didn't mean to laugh at you, Filch. I just want to talk to you"

"Get out of here before I hang you up! Filch yelled at Solim fiercely.

"Don't you want to use magic like a wizard? Solim said with a smile,"I'll get straight to the point. My sister is a squib like you, and I want to help her gain the ability to use magic." And at this point, you, who is also a squib, can help me. Solim looked at Filch who was motionless with the brush and said,"Why don't we have a good talk in your office?" You know, I don’t have classes this afternoon or evening. If I want to have fun, I won’t... Haha, what do you think?"

When Filch knew that he was a squib, he felt that the whole world had lost its color.

He was born pure blood, but he was a squib.

He could only watch others use magic, feel the disgust of his family, and feel the ridicule of others.

Filch It's not that Filch didn't think of a way, but no matter how hard he tried, or even abusing himself, he couldn't awaken his magic.

Slowly, Filch gave up and came to Hogwart with peace of mind under the arrangement of his family.

He worked as a janitor at Filch School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

No one had ever paid attention to Filch, no one had ever cared about him, and he had never had any friends in his more than fifty years of life.

But today there is a little wizard who is willing to help him, even if he has For the other party, he was just a test subject.

Filch did not want to give up this opportunity.

No matter how slim the chance was, Filch was willing to try.

He knew that if he were a wizard, his life would be completely different.

"If you let me know you are playing tricks on me……"

Filch's office was a small room with an oil lamp hanging from the ceiling and filled with the smell of grilled fish. There are filing cabinets for storing student disciplinary records. Looking at this room, you can tell what Filch's status is in Hogwarts. There are so many empty classrooms and empty rooms in the school, and the environment is much better than this small room, but the school only gave him this a small house

"Come on, Filch, time is precious." Solim took out the package he received this morning

""Before we begin, Mr. Filch," Solim explained to Filch while unpacking the package,"you must understand that there are two types of squibs."

People who come from a wizarding family and cannot use magic are called Squibs. The same thing about Muggles and Squibs is that they cannot use magic, but the difference is that Squibs have magic power. It is because of magic that Squibs can Seeing magical creatures like dementors that are invisible to Muggles.

But there is a difference between squibs and squibs.

Some squibs are unable to use magic because they are not talented enough, and the poor magic power in their bodies cannot produce magic riots; some are unable to use magic; The talent is too good, and a large amount of magic power has been accumulated in the body.

Without becoming an Obscurus, the riot of a large amount of magic power will cause irreversible damage to the body of the little wizard.

In this case, the body will subconsciously choose not to proceed.

The catharsis of magic power - that is, magic power riot.

The first thing Solim needs to confirm is which situation Filch falls into, whether he is a squib due to too little magic power, or whether there is no magic power riot in his childhood due to too much magic power.

"Come, drink this potion, Mr. Filch. This is a magic reaction potion. Solim explained to Filch,"Drink it and tell me how you feel.""

Magic reaction potion will reflect the amount of magic power of the object. It is generally used to test the magic power contained in potion materials or alchemical materials. Those that pass the test will be used as materials. But this kind of potion cannot be taken directly by wizards, Solim Even before he came to Hogwarts, he found a potion master through his grandfather who was willing to help him turn it into a potion that could be taken by wizards.

Filch drank the bottle without saying a word Magic reaction potion. In his opinion, no one would use poison to harm himself unless he was crazy. If something happened to him, the kid in front of him wouldn't be able to escape.

"How are you feeling now?"Solim took out a notebook and a quill from the pocket under his wizard robe."If you don't feel it now, wait until you feel it."

In the next two minutes, Solim and Filch stared at each other.

"No way? No matter how little magic power there is, there should still be some reaction. Could it be that Filch is not a squib but a Muggle?"Solim is a bit confused.

"Wait, I feel something. Filch's eyes suddenly widened,"My body feels like it's been soaked in hot water.""

Solim quickly stepped forward and rolled up Filch's sleeves. His skin was red and a little hot to the touch.

"Great, let me know if there are any changes."Solim started writing and drawing in his notebook.

Filch walked around his hut excitedly. Feeling is better than not feeling, right? In his opinion, this is what he can use The beginning of magic. However, at Solim's request, Filch still sat on the only chair in his hut.

"Mr. Selwyn, I feel like the temperature has dropped. Filch now completely lost the fierce attitude he had when he first met Solim.

Looking at the huge hourglass in the corner, Solim nodded:"Nearly thirty minutes, which is enough to explain the situation." Solim stopped writing and closed the notebook,"Congratulations, Mr. Filch, your situation is the best." In other words, it's possible to escape being a Squib. Ignoring the excited Filch, Solim continued:"I will come to visit you again when I have prepared something.""

"Mr. Filch, I suggest you get some exercise first."Solim packed his things and was about to leave."Even if you really succeed, your current body cannot withstand the riot of magic power."

Solim plans to contact his grandfather when he returns. Solim's grandfather has had nothing to do in the past six months. Unless there is an emergency, he will stay in the basement of Selwyn Castle. And once Sollim When Mu's grandfather started working and fulfilling his responsibilities, Solim couldn't contact him. So Solim was prepared to ask for help as much as possible when he could contact his grandfather - after all, this was also for a Serge A member of the Wen family.

Solim's request to his grandfather is simple: confirm Sirna's situation. If it is the worst case scenario, then find another way. If it is the same as Filch's situation, then let His grandfather tried his best to find squibs in the same condition to see if there were any differences between individuals.

The tome Solim read recently was copied by his grandfather from the family collection.

It is not so much a book.

The book is better said to be a combined volume of notes and research notes.

This book records various research and solutions to curses, deformation injuries, spell injuries, and difficult and complicated diseases.

Since this book does not have a table of contents , Solim can only read one by one.

Moreover, there is very little research on Squibs in the book, which increases his workload.

Solim is very sensible, and he does not do it because he is a"special person" He has no sense of superiority towards this familiar yet unfamiliar world. This is due to his origin, which allows him to know many secrets that ordinary wizards will never know. Also due to his origin, ordinary wizards only dream of Even unheard of magical knowledge opened the door to him.

Squibs are a social problem - a social problem of pure-blood wizards.

Strictly speaking, wizard families with more than five generations can be recognized as pure-blood wizards.

Pure-blood wizards are compared to mixed-blood wizards There are too many advantages over Muggle wizards.

Earlier magic riot means more magic power.

A long family history can accumulate a lot of wealth and connections.

But there are also many problems that plague pure-blood families, and Squib is one of them.

, and the so-called pure-blood curse.

Of course, Solim is not concerned about this issue at the moment.

Since the problem of squibs has existed since ancient times, there will naturally be wizards to study the causes of squibs, the solutions to squibs, and how to root out the squibs.

Eliminate the birth of squibs.

Solim has never thought of solving his sister's problem on his own.

As the saying goes, the predecessors planted trees and others will enjoy the shade.

Since someone has studied the problem of squibs for a long time, let's take a look at their research results first.

Looking at their research directions and ideas is also a way to solve the problem - after all,"research" costs a lot of time and money.

Fortunately, in this hodgepodge of various research manuscripts, Solim found what he wanted. A very detailed research manuscript on squibs, which included a plan to restore the use of magic power to squibs. However, this plan was noted by the researchers as having never been implemented.

This was the only thing that allowed Solim to What worries me is that squibs are usually caused by insufficient magic power - this is a congenital deficiency.

All the manuscripts that Solim can find indicate that there is no solution.

And congenital deficiencies are also the most common cause of squibs, like Fei It is a rare phenomenon for Erqi to have enough magic power but not have any magic power riot.

Solim needs to confirm the situation of his sister Sirna before deciding on the next action.

Solim didn't know how long it took for an owl to fly from Hogwarts to the Isle of Man and back, but now he knew. He picked the strongest owl from the Owl Tower to deliver the message, and it took less than an hour from just after lunch to the time when he was eating dinner. Solim received his grandfather's reply while having dinner in the auditorium - you must know that this also included time to confirm Sirna's condition.

Solim was very happy.

His grandfather's reply said that Sirna and Filch were in the same situation.

But Grandfather wasn't sure he could find a third Squib in this condition, and there were some problems with the potion.

The Potions Master that my grandfather had originally been looking for had gone to work.

It was impossible to contact him for at least half a year.

The potion masters who were in the rest stage had to wait until Solim's grandfather received a reply before he could confirm whether these masters had any tasks.

Solim knew what his grandfather's job was, and what the wizards his grandfather knew did. If the Potions Master his grandfather contacted had a job, then he would have to figure it out on his own.

But, doesn’t Hogwarts have a ready-made Potions Master?
