"Here, this is the developing potion."
During a break after a meal, Albert handed a glass bottle of developing solution to Shanna and said, "You know how to use the developing solution, right?"
"I know how to use it, thank you." Shanna took the glass bottle and thanked Albert. "But I'm curious, when did you make the developing potion?"
"A few days ago." Albert did not hide it, "I used it on photos. The developing solution is indeed effective."
"Thank you." Shanna thanked Albert again.
With Shanna's current level of potion making, it was completely unrealistic for her to make the developing potion herself. If she wanted it, she could only buy it with her own money. However, even if Shanna had Galleons in her pocket, she didn't know where to buy the developing potion.
To be honest, Sana has never tried owl mail order. Her impression of the wizarding world is still limited to Diagon Alley and Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
The entire wizarding world is too unfamiliar to the Muggle wizards at Hogwarts.
"You're welcome." Albert didn't care much about these things. He had already reserved some developing potions for himself, and the small bottle he gave to Sana was considered as sharing some with the other party.
"Albert, Albert!" George and Fred hurried into the auditorium and ran towards Albert.
"Aren't you doing your History of Magic homework in the library?" Albert looked up and looked at the Weasley brothers puzzledly.
Before he could say a few words, Albert was grabbed by the twins, one on each side, and dragged out of the auditorium.
Lee Jordan, who was following behind the twins, smiled awkwardly at the others, helped pack up Albert's things, and quickly left with the three of them, leaving behind the students with faces full of curiosity.
"What's wrong with you guys?"
The four of them came to a secluded corner, and Albert was the first to speak and break the silence.
"Look, what did we find in the library?" the Weasley twins looked at each other and said in unison.
"What did you find?" Albert asked cooperatively.
"Thump, thump, thump!" George took out a piece of parchment from his pocket and handed it to Albert.
Albert took the parchment and glanced at the information on it, his face twitching slightly. He was really shocked by the "Gryffindor's Secret Treasure" on the parchment.
He turned the parchment over and saw a simple map on the other side, with a tree, the number 1, a campfire, and a fork.
Albert looked up at the three people and asked, "What the hell is this?"
"Gryffindor's secret treasure." Lee Jordan said excitedly.
"What treasure?" Albert asked again.
"Gryffindor's secret treasure." Lee Jordan said seriously.
"Okay." Albert said unhappily, "I admit... this is indeed interesting, but... it would be really stupid to take it seriously."
"We found this parchment inside a book," said Fred.
“The interlayer of the pages is very hidden, and we discovered it by accident,” George added.
"Accident?" Albert sneered. If he wanted to, he could create a hundred such coincidences.
"So... you guys are going to go treasure hunting?" Albert had already guessed what the three of them were thinking. These guys wanted to go treasure hunting and take risks. Perhaps, they didn't care whether this so-called secret treasure of Gryffindor was real or not.
They just want... adventure, treasure hunting
To some extent, adventure and treasure hunting are actually very interesting, but... the problem is the treasure. What if you find yourself being made a fool of in the end
I'm afraid my mood won't be so bad.
"Someone must have put this there on purpose?" Albert looked at the strange picture and said unhappily, "Besides, I don't think Gryffindor would put its secret treasure in the Forbidden Forest."
That’s right, the Forbidden Forest.
The tree in the portrait should refer to the Forbidden Forest next to Hogwarts.
"It's in the Forbidden Forest as expected." The three said in unison.
"The tree should refer to the Forbidden Forest. The number 1 should refer to the unicorn corresponding to the ancient magic number 1. The campfire refers to human habitation, that is, places where there are people. The only people in the Forbidden Forest that can be called "people" are centaurs. There is also a fork. That should be where the treasure is." Albert saw through the meaning of the map mark at a glance.
"Wow, you cracked the map just like that." Li Jordan opened his mouth in shock.
"What about the secret treasure?" The three of them looked at Albert.
"Maybe it's near the centaur camp." Albert suddenly sneered, "To be honest, even I don't believe what I just said."
Isn't this a clear joke? Otherwise, the so-called Gryffindor secret treasure should be hidden in Hogwarts School, not the Forbidden Forest.
"This..." The three of them were silent. They had actually guessed this.
"What are you doing here?" Filch had already been staring at the people whispering in the corner, and his tone was very unfriendly.
"Nothing." Albert said lightly.
"If you have nothing to do, don't gather here and whisper. Get out of here." Filch drove away the four mysterious-looking guys like he was shooing away flies.
"I'll say it again, don't believe this kind of shit." Albert looked at the three people. "It's like you borrowed a book from the library one day, and then deliberately wrote something in it to tell others that there was something precious hidden there. As a result, when the other party went through so much trouble to find the so-called treasure, what happened? The other party only found a few dung bombs that you put in the box that year."
Several people looked at each other, and they agreed with Albert's guess. Because they had similar thoughts at first, but after getting Albert's analysis, they were more certain that this was the real situation.
Are you kidding
It is really possible.
"By the way, there is one more thing." George raised his hand and scratched the back of his head.
"What's the matter?" Albert asked.
"This piece of parchment was originally hidden between two pages of a book, and then... you should have guessed it." George smiled helplessly.
"Don't you know how to use the repair spell?" Albert asked puzzled.
Two-thirds of the first grade has passed. During this half year, everyone has learned a lot of spells, including the repair spell.
"That..." George looked a little embarrassed, and said dejectedly, "We can't use spells to repair the book."
Fred took out "The Biography of Ulric" from his backpack. This was actually a homework assignment for the History of Magic. They all needed to write a paper about medieval wizards.
"It was hidden very secretly, and we almost didn't even notice it at first." Albert flipped through the pages of the book that were also damaged by Fred, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
"Put the book away first and study it in the dormitory at night." Albert reminded, don't let others notice what you have done, if Madam Pince knows about it.
"She'll kill us."
"Why us and not you?" Fred asked gruffly.
"Stupid, because we are twins!"
