The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 254 The McDougal Family

In the morning, the snow outside the house stopped.Isobel just woke up, feeling a bit cold in the room, so he retracted his head under the blanket.In the kitchen downstairs, there were faint and chaotic sounds.The girl sighed softly, got up quickly, got dressed, and went downstairs to help make breakfast.

"Mom, don't you have to go to work at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries today?" The red-haired girl in home clothes walked into the kitchen and asked Mrs. McDougal who was busy preparing breakfast.

"Honey, today is your birthday." Mrs. McDougall signaled her daughter to wait for a while, "So, I took half a day off to cook you a hearty breakfast."

"The beef is going to be burnt!" When Katrina went downstairs, she smelled a faint smell of burning, and quickly reminded her aloud.

"Let me do it!" Isobel sighed lightly, pulled out his wand, and took over Mrs. McDougal's cooking work.

Perhaps, there is a saying that is right, everyone has their own good places.And their mother, besides being highly talented in healing, always makes a mess of other things, even the cooking magic that took a long time to practice, still can't skillfully cook delicious food.

Who would have thought that the director of the well-known Magic Injury Department at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries would be in a mess except for treatment!

"Oh, okay!" Mrs. McDougal was a little disappointed, but she soon regained her composure. "By the way, I just counted the number of gifts. You received fifteen birthday presents this year."

"Okay Mom, I think we can wait until after breakfast to unwrap those birthday presents." Isobel directed the beef in the pan with a magic wand, skillfully arranged them, and Katrina used cooking magic to fry them. Eggs and fried sausages, and by the way, making tomato and other vegetables into vegetable salad, her cooking magic is not as skilled as Isobel, and she needs to pay attention when cooking.

"Good morning, Dad." Isobel looked at the photo of the young man beside him and greeted softly.The man in the photo is smiling at them.

"Katrina's family magic has grown a lot!" Mrs. McDougall was not stingy with her praise, and she has almost no talent in cooking.

"I practice all the time," Katrina said.In fact, she helped with housework at home, and the mother of the two was a long-term busy at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries.

At breakfast, the McDougals ate and chatted about some interesting things that happened in school.In fact, the two sisters have always put Mrs. McDougal at ease.

After breakfast together, it was time to unwrap Isobel's birthday presents. Most of them were ordinary small gifts from Ravenclaw students. If you want to say whose gift is the most special, it is Uncle Mog's gift. The latest version of the magic text book.

"I don't think many people in Hogwarts can understand this book!" Katrina took the magic script, turned a few pages, and couldn't help complaining.

Although she has learned some, ancient rune is not Katrina's strong point.

"There will always be someone who can understand it." Isobel put away the magic document with a calm face.

"Robert Hilliard, are you pursuing you?" Katrina asked, looking at the sender of the package and tilting her head at Isobel.

"Why do you say that?" Isobel asked back.

"Intuition." Katrina looked at the pair of beautiful white gloves, raised her eyebrows and said, "His vision is not bad."

"What kind of child is that?" Mrs. McDougal asked curiously.

"I didn't notice, what's wrong?" Isobel handed the unpacked package to Katrina, "If you like it, I will give it to you."

"Forget it." Katrina didn't intend to ask.After all, it was Robert's wish. If he used it, the poor guy would probably faint in the toilet.

"Thank you, the hat is beautiful!" Isobel put on the black wizard hat on his head, and there was a gorgeous tail feather on the hat, which looked elegant and suitable for wearing at banquets.

"You're welcome." Katrina smiled, "Anyway, I didn't pay for it."

Mrs. McDougall looked at her two daughters and felt that they were hiding something from her.

"Hey, Albert will also give you a birthday present." Katrina was quite surprised when she saw the signature on the package.

"Last time, I used a spell to exchange things with him." Isobel opened the package and was stunned when he saw what was inside.

"What is this, a wooden carving?" Katrina asked puzzled, "However, it looks very small."

"Amulet?" Mrs. McDougall looked at the unicorn wood carving, a little surprised to see such a finely crafted amulet.

"Amulet? By the way, there is a card inside." Katrina reached out to pick up the card, and handed it to Isobel.

Isobel glanced at the card and handed it to Katrina again.

"Can I read it?"

"Well, read it!"

"Hope it will help you through the impending doom - Albert Anderson."

"Bad luck, what bad luck?" Katrina was even more puzzled, did something happen between them?
Isobel briefly talked about the runestone divination last time.

"Although I don't want to speak ill of Professor Trelawney in private, many people say she is a liar. You know, divination requires talent, and Professor Trelawney obviously has no talent." Katrina obviously didn't Trust Professor Trelawney's divination.

"There seems to be something engraved on it." Mrs. McDougall took the amulet, looked it over carefully, and commented, "I dare say, this kind of amulet must be very expensive, as you know, the ones sold on the market are all Liar."

"Is this thing effective?" Katrina was dubious.

"It should work. By the way, it's actually carved out of Mandrakes."

As a healer, Mrs. McDougal was also very good at configuring potions, and she quickly recognized the wood used to carve the amulets.

"Is that the Mandrake?" Katrina suddenly remembered something. Someone seemed to have stolen a Mandrake from the Hogwarts greenhouse. Could it be...

"This thing needs to be carved with mature mandrakes, and the mandrakes at the school are still immature." Isobel reminded aloud as if he had seen through his sister's thoughts.

"Also, this amulet is probably made by Anderson himself. He is very good at runes and alchemy." Isobel pointed to the ancient runes engraved on it, and explained, "As for the price, it must not be as expensive as your hat .”

"Albert Anderson? I seem to have seen this man's name in "The Master of Practical Potions" a while ago." Mrs. McDougal suddenly remembered where she had heard the name, "It is said that Anderson is a potion genius , the improved potion is admired by Mr Dagworth."

"That guy is indeed a genius." Isobel admitted straightforwardly, "However, you may have to ask Katrina to know the specific situation. They are students of the same class."

"That Mr. Anderson is in the same class as Katrina?" Mrs. McDougall's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Well, he is in the same class as me, and he is recognized as a genius wizard in the school. Many people think that he will be the next headmaster Dumbledore." Katrina hesitated for a moment, and said, "In fact, he has been in many academic circles." Papers have been published in journals."
