The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 749 The Insider

"The o.w.Ls exam seems to be scary. I heard that some people couldn't bear the pressure of the exam and broke down emotionally."

Hermione and Albert had just come out of the library and walked side by side in the corridor leading to the Gryffindor common room, chatting casually about recent events.

Actually, Hermione wanted to find out from Albert about o. w． Ls exam thing.The twelve courses put a lot of pressure on her, and she was a little worried that she would not be able to bear it o. w． Ls the stress of exams and finally an emotional breakdown like everyone else.

"The difficulty of the o.w.ls exam is not high, and it is not difficult to get excellent results." Albert said to Hermione, "As long as you can thoroughly grasp the key points mentioned by the professors in class, I think you Should be able to easily pass the written and practical tests of the o.w.Ls."

In fact, Albert was not casually perfunctory, he had read the history of o. w． In the Ls exam, I found that most of the exam content is very similar, that is to say, as long as you master this part of knowledge, you can pass the exam easily.

"Perhaps, this is the biggest difference between geniuses and ordinary people!" Hermione was a little depressed, "I don't think you need to study for exams that are difficult for others, and you still have a lot of time to study other things. "

"You are also very smart, so you don't need to belittle yourself. Even a genius needs hard work, not to mention you are also a genius." Albert took out a few candies and handed them to Hermione, comforting softly, "You just haven't gotten used to it yet, Maybe Percy can give you some good advice, and his way suits you better."

"Percy suggested I come to you for help," Hermione whispered.She had approached Percy, hoping that the other party could give her some advice, but Percy's suggestion to her was to ask Albert directly for knowledge she didn't understand, to ask the other party for advice, master it first, and then think about it.

The corner of Albert's mouth twitched, he was really busy, he had a lot of things to do every day, and he didn't have much time to help Hermione.

Hermione knew that Albert was busy, so she didn't bother him.

Of course, there were other reasons, but Hermione didn't want to get herself and Albert into trouble.

Both were silent until they reached the entrance to the Gryffindor common room and found that Neville Longbottom seemed to be in some trouble.

Ser Cadogan would not let him into the common room.

"What's going on?" Albert stepped forward and asked.

"He kept changing passwords, and those passwords confuse me!" Neville said miserably with tears in his eyes, "Afterwards, I had to write all those passwords down, but I lost that piece of paper! "

"It's so true!" Sir Cadogan said to Albert and Hermione after yelling at Neville, "You should chain this fool into the dungeon for he's going to force his way in." s room!"

"Strange body." Albert said to Sir Cadogan, "I suggest you change your password to something more normal, and your password is changed too often. Many people have come to me to protest this matter."

"Longbottom is not the first person to be driven crazy by passwords." Albert said to Hermione beside him.

"The door can only be opened by saying the password. This is the rule for entering the Gryffindor common room. You can't expect Sir Cadogan to open the door for you. And don't beg for a painting. Weakness will only get someone else's favor." contempt and ridicule."

Albert turned back to Neville and said, "If you often forget something, I suggest you prepare a small notebook and tie it to your belt with a chain. Write down something in the notebook. If you forget, just write it down. Get out your notes and look through them. I remember some kind of quill that refills ink automatically, or you could use a Muggle charcoal, fountain pen or ballpoint."

After speaking, Albert took out a notebook from his pocket and shook it in front of Neville Longbottom, "This is much more practical than a memory ball, don't you think, Longbottom?"

"Thank you, thank you!"

Neville was sincerely grateful to Albert, he felt that he was really stupid to use memory balls before, and Albert provided him with a good solution to forgetfulness.

As long as there is something to write down, and take the notes with him, he doesn't need to worry about forgetting things.

"I didn't expect you to carry this kind of thing with you." Hermione was very surprised. She knew that although Albert could not achieve a photographic memory, his memory was better than most people.

"You can't remember everything, especially when you're busy, sometimes notes are more reliable than memory." Albert said with a smile: "Fred and George also carry such a note, When they occasionally have an idea, they will write it down immediately, but the quill is a bit difficult to use, so they all use Muggle ballpoint pens now."

"Are you going in or not?" Sir Cadogan couldn't help complaining.

After the two entered the common room, they separated. Albert first greeted the three roommates who were whispering together, and then planned to go back to the dormitory and bring Tom down for a briefing.

As soon as he went upstairs, Albert heard a rush of footsteps upstairs, getting louder and louder, as if a furious person was running up the stairs.

A few seconds later, someone rushed down the stairs with a sheet covering him, and he immediately turned sideways to make way for him.

"Looks like Ron?"

After Albert saw the man's face clearly, he recalled it carefully. He couldn't remember which famous scene it was for the time being. He continued to walk towards the dormitory, but Ron's angry roar came from below: "Look, look... Look what this is!"

After Albert went downstairs with Tom in his arms, he found out from Lee Jordan what happened just now.

Hermione's cat ate Ron's mouse?
So, the two fell out.

"I think the mouse named Scabbers has special meaning to Ron, that's why he was so angry." Albert could understand Ron's thoughts.

"Special significance, his pet?"

"Still a girlfriend?"

Fred and George looked at each other and couldn't help giggling. They obviously didn't understand what the so-called special meaning meant.

"It's family."

Albert looked at the twins who were teasing Ron quite speechlessly, and explained: "For some people, pets are also members of the family."

If someone ate his Tom, or killed him, Albert would probably be mad.

"Family?" Fred and George fell silent for a moment.

"So, Ron regards Banban as his family? So we are just like Banban in Ron's heart." Fred sighed heavily, showing a heartbroken look.

"I think it's just a metaphor, which means being as important as family." Lee Jordan said rather speechlessly.

"However, we didn't expect Ron to value that mouse so much. I thought he would care more about his friends." George understood, but he couldn't understand why Ron had a falling out with his friends.

"That's Percy's mouse!" Fred muttered, "It seems to have lived for a long time, five years or even longer. I think that mouse should be dying soon. Pets like mice usually don't live long. .Actually, I think it would be better for it to die earlier, at least it doesn’t have to suffer the pain of dying slowly.”

Lee Jordan suddenly understood why Albert didn't let them go to trouble with Filch's cat. He thought it was Albert who liked cats before, and it turned out to be the reason.

"To Filch, that cat is his family?" Lee Jordan said suddenly.

"what?"

The three of them didn't react for a while.

"I suddenly understood why you didn't let us touch Filch's cat." Lee Jordan couldn't help but sighed.

Fred and George were a little silent, and it was not difficult for them to see Filch's situation from Ron.

"That cat is family and spiritual sustenance to Filch. If you kill or hurt Mrs. Norris, I bet Filch will keep staring at you and keep looking for it. You're in trouble. Remember what Filch looked like last year after Mrs. Norris was petrified?"

"That's like a mad dog."
