"I can't believe you're spending your Christmas break reading a book?"
On the Hogwarts Express, Fred and George looked at Albert as if he were a monster. Lee Jordan, who was standing next to him, had quietly covered his face with his hands, pretending to be very shocked.
"What are you looking at?" Albert couldn't help but rolled his eyes at the three people in the car, "As if you don't have to do homework during the holidays."
"Ah, don't mention that." Lee Jordan was the first to whine. He hadn't finished his holiday homework yet.
"Oh, dear Albert, I don't think you would be so cruel as to watch us being put in solitary confinement!" Fred changed his previous attitude.
There was no way, he hadn't finished it yet, and needed to refer to Albert's homework.
"I don't need to take Transfiguration, Charms or Potions." Albert said a cruel fact. "I don't need to take Transfiguration, Charms or Potions."
"This is not fair. How can this be?" Fred couldn't help but scream out, "How could Snape allow you not to do your homework?"
“I didn’t expect him to be such an old bat,” George continued.
"Would Professor McGonagall really allow this to happen? You are not lying to us." Lee Jordan's face was full of disbelief.
"Because I have other papers to write." Albert shook the book in his hand towards the three wailing people, "Besides, those homework assignments are not difficult for me. They will only waste my time."
"Is that something a student would say?" Lee Jordan put his hand to his chest, reached out and grabbed the beans and threw them into his mouth.
"I suddenly feel that Percy is really lame." George said unhappily, "That guy now thinks he will definitely become the head of Gryffindor next semester."
"He would really say that." Albert had a strange expression on his face. He didn't think Percy would say that, otherwise it would be too stupid.
"No." George shook his head.
"That's what he meant." Fred curled his lips and said, "It's written on his face anyway. It doesn't matter whether he says it or not."
"Percy should become the Gryffindor prefect." Albert did not deny this, "He also has a good chance of becoming the student union president."
"Oh my God, this is a disaster." Fred and George couldn't help but scream.
Both Albert and Lee Jordan were a bit baffling.
"We don't like people bossing us around. You know Percy, that guy is really..."
"Okay, I admit that you may not like him very much, but Percy is actually not bad and very ambitious." Albert's initial impression of Percy was actually very average, but after actually getting to know him, he felt that some of Percy's ideas were actually not wrong and that he was a very capable and ambitious person.
"Wow, traitor, you actually agree with that guy." The twins immediately criticized Albert to protest their dissatisfaction.
Li Qiaodan was so frightened by the indignant twins that he ate an extra multi-flavored bean to calm his nerves.
Well, actually he was so frightened by Fred and George's reactions that he swallowed the beans he had just thrown into his mouth.
"It's a good thing to be ambitious. It means he has goals, just like us now." Albert stuffed the book back into his backpack and patted Lee Jordan on the back. The guy seemed to be choked by the beans.
"In fact, our situation is similar. After graduation, our family is destined not to be able to provide us with much support." Albert briefly described their current situation, "If you don't have money, you can't even open a joke shop."
"Percy's situation is similar to ours. He is also accumulating capital for himself so that he can make further progress after graduation."
After a long silence, the twins said nothing more.
"You just don't like Percy's personality." Albert shook his head. He remembered that Percy seemed to have a bad relationship with his family for some reason.
"What is that, an owl?" Li Jordan heard a noise outside the window. When he turned his head, he was startled by a group of owls outside the window.
"Yes, it's an owl, but why at this time..." Albert noticed the letter in the owl's claws at a glance.
"Who sent it? Could it be your old friends?" Fred changed the subject. He really didn't want to continue talking about Percy. Maybe it was just like Albert said, they just didn't like Percy's personality.
George had opened the window to let in the owl.
"Mundungus Fletcher." Albert glanced at the sender, opened the envelope casually, and quickly read the contents of the letter. "It seems that he is not too stupid."
"Mundungus Fletcher?" All three of them were a little confused. "Are you going to buy something from that guy?"
"Well, the fur of the Swamp Digger, he first asked me for 20 Galleons..."
"Twenty Galleons. Is that guy crazy?" Lee Jordan's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Do you know what a swamp digger is?" Albert asked suddenly.
Lee Jordan's face froze instantly. Fred and George beside him had already covered their cheeks and turned their heads away to prevent themselves from laughing out loud.
"I'm sure you two don't know either." Lee Jordan glanced at the snickering Fred and George.
"I wrote to him to ask him to set a more sincere price." Albert coughed and said, "He agreed and said we can discuss this matter next time we meet."
"That guy can't be trusted," Fred muttered. "Dad deals with him all the time."
"I know."
"By the way, what do you want that fur for?" Lee Jordan looked at Albert in confusion.
"Make magic items." Albert did not hide anything, but he did not tell the three what kind of magic items he was going to make.
Speaking of magic items, Albert took out four wizard cards from his pocket and handed them to the three people, "My new gadget."
"What is this?" The three of them looked at the wizard card with curiosity.
"Fire spell and conversion spell." Albert picked up his card and used magic to change the contents on the card. The three of them found that some changes had taken place on the wizard card in their hands.
"Wow, you can actually do this." Fred asked curiously, "Can we do it too?"
"Yes, but there is a prerequisite." Albert explained, "The user must be able to use the transformation spell. Of course, I can't make more complex changes at present."
"By the way, this is a Christmas present for you, although it's a little late!" Fred and George handed a box of sandwich cookies to Albert.
Lee Jordan's Christmas gift was a big box of Beebe Every Flavour Beans.
"We wanted to give it to you on Christmas Day, but Percy took Errol away," Fred complained. "Percy was acting mysterious all day, as if he was writing a letter to someone."
"Errol is my family's owl. He's very old, so I don't ask him to bring you anything anymore," George explained.
"Maybe he has a girlfriend." Albert winked and said jokingly.
"What!"
"Impossible, he's Percy, how could he have a girlfriend?" Fred said in shock.
"I was just saying it casually." Albert shrugged and said, "After all, only when you have a girlfriend do you need to keep in touch with her through letters, unless Percy has a bunch of old friends like me."
"Percy has a girlfriend. I never thought in my dreams." After George and Fred looked at each other, they showed happy expressions on their faces, as if they had encountered something interesting.
"By the way, why are you like this? You don't have a girlfriend, do you?" Lee Jordan said in a strange tone.
