Hogwarts: What bad intentions could a little badger have?

The third picture shows a large desert with several clear springs bubbling out of it. Snakes are constantly coming out of the springs...

"Snakes again?" Blake picked up the attached letter and took a look.

In the letter, Dracula asked him in a tentative tone whether he had received the previous letter.

He also asked him if he could understand the alchemical knowledge contained in these patterns.

But Blake put the letter aside as usual and continued to study the pattern.

When it was over again, Blake realized that the owl that sent the letter had not left yet.

It seemed that Dracula had also learned his lesson and had to wait for Blake's reply.

Blake touched his chin, then pulled a piece of parchment and wrote a few lines in a hurry, and asked the owl to send it back.

…

The owl quickly returned to Dracula's temporary residence.

When he saw a piece of paper in the owl's mouth, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic.

This bastard finally replied!

Dracula quickly opened the note and read it.

Then he put it down again with a confused look on his face.

Because what was written on the note was not a reply, but two lines of alchemical formulas...

Dracula also studied alchemy, otherwise he would not use alchemy to lure Blake.

However, he still couldn't understand the meaning of the two formulas on the note.

"Tsk... If you don't want to reply, you don't have to reply. What do you mean by replying two formulas?" Dracula angrily crumpled the note into a ball and threw it on the ground.

But he thought about it, maybe... Blake was testing his alchemy level?

If his alchemy skills were not good enough, maybe he would not bother to communicate with him?

The more Dracula thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible, because humans are like this, especially those who have some skills, they all look high and mighty, and always have an inexplicable sense of superiority!

Thinking of this, Dracula had to spread out the parchment again, and then began to study it with a frown...

...

While Dracula was studying, Blake did not receive the next painting.

However, Blake remained calm, everything was under his control.

At least, before Dracula solved his two formulas, Dracula should not bother him.

And, Dracula guessed one thing right, if his alchemy skills were not good enough, Blake would not really be willing to pay attention to him...

If Brac wants to get something for free, then you have to give him something for free.

Black, who had some free time, finally had time to have a good chat with Mr. Weasley.

Mr. Weasley has been working in the "Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Department of the Ministry of Magic". This department is very small, and the person in charge is Mr. Weasley.

"I've actually always been curious,, to what extent is it considered abuse of Muggle items?" Black asked.

Mr. Weasley replied: "Generally speaking, wizards who cast magic on Muggle products are considered to be abusing Muggle items. Well... Generally speaking, this is also to protect Muggles."

"Well... So, you are responsible for writing the Muggle Protection Act?"

Mr. Weasley nodded and said, "Yes. You know, Muggles know nothing about wizards. If items modified by wizards flow into the Muggle world, the danger is very great. We have to protect these poor Muggles who accidentally receive things modified by magic."

"As far as I remember, I have dealt with several serious cases, such as a set of coffee cups that bite people's noses, and door handles that you can't let go of when you hold them..."

"I still remember those two poor Muggles... They were both scared and fainted. We had to rush out, and after healing their wounds, we also temporarily modified their memories..."

Blake thought about it and found that this did make sense. Some guys just like to cast all kinds of weird magic on Muggle products.

For the example just now, what is the use of a set of coffee cups that bite people's noses? Just to play tricks on people?

If the person who got the cups was a wizard, it might be a prank, but if it fell into the hands of Muggles... that would be a ghost story.

The Muggle Protection Act is indeed necessary.

"Then... brooms are also Muggle products, so why are flying brooms not considered abusing Muggle products?"

"Well, because flying brooms are products made by wizards themselves, not by wizards casting magic on Muggle-produced brooms."

"Then, what about flying carpets? Why are flying carpets banned in the UK? Aren't flying carpets also products made by wizards? ”

Mr. Weasley patiently explained, “Indeed, many people have this question. Flying carpets are more likely to fall into the Muggle world than flying brooms... Often, when a flying carpet is rolled up, even wizards can't tell whether it is an ordinary carpet or a flying carpet. There is a difference between a flying broom and a Muggle broom. After all, a Muggle broom doesn't have a footrest. Therefore, the British Ministry of Magic banned flying carpets for the sake of caution. ”

“Then... sir, you modified your Ford car..."

When Mr. Weasley heard about the Ford car, a hint of pride flashed across his face, "Speaking of this! I have to mention my Muggle Protection Act! It is forbidden to abuse Muggle products... The abuse is very flexible. It is divided into malicious modification and general modification. ”

“For example, as long as the magical modification is harmless to people, it is not considered malicious modification! If you are caught, you will be fined at most, which is not a big problem. For example, my car can fly and become invisible. I think this will not harm Muggles! So, this is not a malicious modification. But the biting cup is different.The cup really bites Muggles! Then, this is malicious modification! It should be thrown into Azkaban. ”

·· ·······Please give me flowers·· ·

·· ·······Please give me flowers·· ·

Black suddenly realized. The right to interpret the term "abuse" in the Muggle Protection Act lies entirely with Mr. Weasley himself... He believes that only malicious transformations require severe punishment, while general transformations are given lenient sentences, and sometimes even no fines are required.

Otherwise... What if a Muggle accidentally drives a flying car into the sky? How can you say there is no danger? But Mr. Weasley said there was no harm, which means it was non-malicious and can be forgiven...

No wonder Mr. Weasley was only fined a little money when the flying car was photographed by a Muggle before, instead of being thrown into Azkaban.

Moreover, the fine was more of a punishment for his violation of the International Statute of Secrecy, rather than abusing Muggle items.

........ 0 ...

........ 0 ...

"Black, you ask me these... Do you also want to modify something?" Mr. Weasley asked.

For this kind of idea of ​​wanting to modify but being a little worried, he is the most familiar with it, otherwise he would not often amend the provisions of the Muggle Protection Act.

"Yes, Mr. Weasley, in fact, many products in the Muggle world are very creative, but Muggle products are all powered by electricity, which cannot be used in the wizarding world, especially in places like Hogwarts. So, we can only make modifications. I want to find out whether this is illegal before making these products."

"What do you want to modify?" Mr. Weasley asked with interest.

"For example... air conditioning? In the hot summer, this thing can make the indoor temperature cooler... If it is installed in your car, you will not feel stuffy when driving in the summer."

"What? There is such a thing? "Mr. Weasley asked excitedly. He couldn't wait to install such a magical thing in his precious car.

After all, his car was good in every way, but it felt very stuffy when driving. Because the air conditioner of his car had been used for a long time and it was broken.

"Muggle products need to be modified if we want to use them..." Black looked at Mr. Weasley.

"It's not illegal! Modifying the air conditioner is not illegal at all!" Mr. Weasley immediately expressed his opinion. "The principle of the Muggle Protection Act is that no harmful modification is considered malicious modification, and of course it is not considered abuse of Muggle items!"

"Then...what if I transform a Transformer? Do I just need to make a Transformer, and thenIf it is transformed into a car, it is not considered abuse? Because there are no Transformers in the Muggle world! Is this just a transformation of an alchemical product? "Nai Nai.
