Things went even more smoothly than Albert had expected.

However, Albert was surprised that there was no panel task this time. In the past, when encountering such a thing, the panel task would usually appear first. Why did he feel a little... uncomfortable

Albert stopped in front of the Fat Lady's portrait and checked the task panel. Sure enough, there was only that damn task of returning lost property.

"Do you want to come in?" The fat lady, who was waiting impatiently, couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, sorry. The password is: singer."

After Albert spoke the command, the Fat Lady's portrait swung open, revealing a passage hidden behind it.

As Albert entered the common room, he heard someone calling him.

It's George.

He was watching Fred and Lee Jordan play wizard cards at the table.

"How is it?" Albert asked.

"George and I will be the beaters, Angelina will also be the pursuer, Wood will be the goalkeeper, and Charlie will be the seeker." George said, "The other two seekers are Danny and Paris."

"As expected." Albert nodded.

"Aliya Spinnet was selected as the candidate for Seeker, and there is also first-year Katie Bell, and Cormac McLaggen is considered as the candidate for Keeper. Of course, you, the unreliable candidate for Seeker, must also be counted." George couldn't help asking, "How are you doing? What does Dumbledore want you for?"

"That incident last time. However, Mr. Hertok agreed to help me solve the problem." Albert explained casually, and turned his head to the girl next to him and said, "Congratulations on getting what you wanted, Angelina."

"Thank you." Angelina said with a smile, "But I didn't expect you didn't go."

"There are other things to do." Albert said.

"Alia flies well." Angelina pulled her friend aside and said, "It's a pity. If she had practiced with us last semester, she would definitely have become a regular player this year."

"If you practice more this year, you will be able to play next year." Albert paused, then continued, "I remember Katie Bell seemed to be a girl. It seems that the Gryffindor Chasers will be girls playing for a long time. I dare say that this is definitely an extremely rare situation."

"Indeed." George nodded in agreement, "Don't wait until everyone else is on the court and you're the only one left on the bench."

"Isn't this great? We can be lazy." Albert joked, "But I know some people will probably have to be on the bench for a long time."

"Who?" George demanded.

"Cormac McLaggen."

Albert noticed that when he mentioned this name, some eyes were cast in his direction. Albert turned his head and saw that it was Cormac McLaggen.

"Why?" George asked puzzled.

"Stupid!" Albert reminded speechlessly, "Wood will be the captain of the next Quidditch class, and his position as goalkeeper will probably continue until graduation, so there is actually no need to choose a backup. However, Charlie probably wants to keep a backup just in case, to prevent the bad things that happened last year from happening again."

"That makes sense." Fred suddenly said, "Would you like to have a plate?"

"Okay!" Albert said, "But my cards are in the dormitory."

"I'm not talking to you. You stay here." Fred waved his hand at Albert with disdain on his face and said, "No one wants to play cards with you now. Go and develop more cards. There are still too few cards now."

"I'll make a deck of my own some other day." Angelina took the cards handed over by Lee Jordan, "This game is much more interesting than Gobstone, but the cards are a bit rough."

"Well, it's still in its infancy." Albert asked, "Do you want to join the Wizard Card Club?"

"What is that?" Angelina was a little surprised.

"Well, it's just like the name says, a loose club," Albert raised his hand and pointed at the people around him and said, "At present, there are only four of us."

"What is this club for?" Angelina asked curiously, "Playing wizard cards together?"

"Well, how should I put it?" Albert thought for a while before answering her question: "It should be said that the Wizard Card Enthusiasts Club will gather once a month on the last weekend. We will update our card library and announce more complete Wizard Card game rules, that's it."

"Did you just decide?" Li Jordan asked.

"No, it was decided on the train?" Albert shook his head.

"How come I don't know?" George didn't believe it.

"I didn't say at that time that I wanted to promote this game. This is an inevitable process." Albert started talking nonsense again.

"Don't listen to his nonsense. Albert must be fooling you again." Fred played his card and said to Angelina, "It's your turn."

"It's like this again." Li Qiaodan showed an expression that said, "I knew it would be like this."

"You guys continue. I have other things to do. If you have any suggestions about the game, please write them down." Albert looked at Alia who was watching the two of them playing cards and asked, "Do you want some too?"

"What do you want?" Alia didn't understand what Albert said.

"My own cards." Albert explained.

Alia was surprised and asked, "Is it possible?"

"Of course, wait a moment." Albert returned to the dormitory and filled out a card for Alia.

The effect is alternate: Every time a Quidditch player card is sent to the graveyard, health +1.

"Why not attack?" Fred couldn't help but complain.

"The game needs to be balanced. Okay, you guys play by yourselves, I still have to go to the Transformation Club." Albert did not forget about the Transformation Club. Although he was late, he still had to go.

"See you later. When you come back, stop by the kitchen for some midnight snack." Fred suddenly called to Albert.

"Not on the way." Albert rolled his eyes and walked out towards the entrance of the common room.

By the time he reached the sixth floor of the castle and came to the door of classroom 21 through the witch's portrait, the Transfiguration Club had already started for more than half an hour.

Albert hesitated for a moment, raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door, then pushed it open and walked in.

The Transfiguration Club has one less chair and some of its members have been replaced.

In addition to Katrina, Diggory also joins the Transfiguration Club.

"Please sit down, Mr. Anderson. We are only halfway through our talk." Professor McGonagall turned her head to look at Albert and motioned for him to take a seat.

Albert walked towards Field and sat in the vacant armchair, looking at Katrina and Diggory, the former using a simple small wooden chair and the latter using a three-legged stool.

Compared with others, it's really shabby.

However, considering their level of transformation, it is already very good.

Professor McGonagall was explaining the Transfiguration trick and she turned a chair into a dachshund and made it run in circles.

This is a very advanced transformation magic, which is a bit difficult for the newcomers. Katrina and Diggory were both a bit confused.
