Hogwarts: Please graduate soon

Mr. Zhang was still angry when Wayne came to pick up Qiu three days later.

I never expected that this guy could reach so far that he could even influence his immediate boss.

Even though he knew he would be promoted soon, he still couldn't be grateful to Wayne.

Mrs. Zhang was very open-minded about this. Women's perspectives on problems are fundamentally different from men's.

She felt that Wayne had spent so much effort to spend Christmas with Qiu, which was enough to show his intentions. She just said a few words to Wayne and let the two go.

Standing on the side of the road, Qiu was also a little excited.

"How do we get there?".

"Have you ever taken a Knight Bus?" Wayne asked.

Qiu shook her head slightly: "I've only heard of it, but I never had the chance."

"Then let's try it today." Wayne took out his wand and shook it. Soon, a bus came to the two at an incredible speed.

With curiosity to explore, Qiu followed Wayne and walked up.

.....

Devon.

In a small village in West Devon, a bus suddenly appeared, then braked suddenly and stopped suddenly at the entrance of the village.

A boy got off the bus with a pale girl.

"Welcome to take the Knight Bus next time." The ticket seller said goodbye warmly, and then the car rushed away again.

"I regret it." Qiu resisted the urge to vomit: "This is just running rampant. I thought I was going to have a car accident several times."

"After riding it once, I won't think about it anymore." Wayne smiled and took Qiu to the side to rest for a while. After they adjusted themselves, they entered the village.

There is only one main road in the whole village. The two of them went to the end of the road and came to a small house.

The house was shabby, with a rusty lock hanging on the door.

Given the shabby state of the house, people were wondering if the lock was necessary.

"Is this Nicolae Flamel's home?"

Qiu couldn't believe that the greatest alchemist in history would live in such a place.

"This is just a transit station."

Wayne used magic to open the door. There was only one room in the house, without any functional areas, and it looked empty. The only thing in the whole room was an old wall clock hanging on the wall.

"Hold my hand." Wayne said to Qiu, and the girl held his arm tightly, and then he used his other free arm to turn the wall clock to 1:36.

One thousand three hundred and sixteen, exactly the year Nicole was born.

The wall clock suddenly spun at high speed, generating a strong suction force that sucked both of them in.

When Qiu came to his senses, the two of them were already in a corridor full of classical atmosphere.

A house elf suddenly flashed to their side.In front of him, he bowed deeply:

"Master Lawrence, hello."

"Nabi, long time no see." Wayne greeted with a smile, and then introduced: "This is Qiu Zhang, my girlfriend."

Nabi immediately saluted Qiu respectfully again: "Dear lady, my name is Nabi, I am the house elf responsible for the host's daily life and reception."

"Hello, Nabi." Qiu also greeted him.

"Where is Nico? Are Newt and the others here?" Wayne asked again.

"Mrs. Scamander is enjoying the opera with the hostess, and Mr. Scamander is chatting with the host on the terrace."

"Then take us there."

The house elf led the way in front, and the two soon came to the terrace on the east side of the third floor of the house and met Nico and Newt.

"You are finally here."

Seeing the boy, Nicole came over with a smile, "We were just talking about when you would arrive."

"This is Qiu Zhang, right?" Nicole stretched out his hand and smiled kindly, "Hello, kid."

"Hello, Mr. Flamel." Qiu stretched out her hand nervously and shook it carefully.

Before coming, Wayne had told her that she must be gentle when shaking hands with Nicole, otherwise, if she was not careful, she might break his bones.

"Just like Wayne, just call me Nicole." Nicole responded gently and asked the two to sit down.

Qiu had met Newt at the Hog's Head before, so there was no need to introduce him again.

"Where is Rolf, didn't you say you would bring him here?"

Wayne looked around and saw that Nabi only mentioned Newt and his wife just now, and it seemed that Rolf did not come.

"He was taken away by his parents to Liechtenstein." When Newt mentioned this, he seemed a little dissatisfied: "It was clearly agreed that Rolf would spend Christmas with us, but he changed his mind."

Well, it was a standard drama of grandfather and parents fighting for children. Wayne shrugged and didn't know how to comfort him.

But Newt adjusted himself quickly. He complained a few words and then shifted the topic to the nearest Hogwarts.

"It's just catching a fugitive. It's really a fuss to send out so many Dementors."

Nico commented: "There are actually many ways to avoid the pursuit of Dementors. Brain occlusion, Animagus, and many black magic can do this."

"It's just causing unnecessary trouble to others."

"Nico, only you can say it so easily." Newt smiled: "Facing Dementors, many people can't even use magic, how can they think of these methods."

They are all bigwigs in the magic world, so they can say things so easily.

After learning that the two had come here by Knight Bus, Nico chatted briefly and then asked Qiu and Wayne to rest first.

Nabi took them to the room, Qiu went to catch up on some sleep, and Wayne used this time to tour the manor.

This manorThe style is completely different from that of Paris. The Roman manor in Paris is more noble, like the palace of ancient nobles.

The style here is rural, with a stronger atmosphere of life.

Wayne found the pasture and released the unicorn, panda, and many other little guys.

A golden figure flashed by, and Newt, who was with him, said in surprise: "Golden Snitch?"

"Hagrid gave it to me."

Wayne looked at the golden silk thread that appeared because of the Golden Snitch across the sky: "How is it, I raised it well, right?"

"It's pretty good." Newt nodded involuntarily.

Whether the Golden Snitch is healthy or not depends purely on its flying speed. Wayne's one is so fast that he can't see it clearly.

"It's a pity that there is only this one." Wayne shook his head regretfully and hinted madly:

"It would be great if someone could give me another one to make a male and a female."

Even with Newt's good temper, he couldn't help rolling his eyes.

"I find your hobbies are quite unique. You raise very cruel animals..."

Thunderbirds, unicorns, iron-eating beasts, and golden snipes, each of which is extremely rare and listed in the protection regulations.

Wayne also complained: "Do you want to see your curled-winged demon and leopard before saying this?"

The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere fell into a strange silence.

The eldest brother should stop laughing at the second brother.

Soon, the old and the young reached a consensus.

As a Hufflepuff, it is understandable to have a few cute little animals...

......

When it was almost time for dinner, Wayne called Qiu up.

The girl had a good sleep and her complexion became much better.

Everyone sat down at the table and introduced themselves again. Qiu was a little nervous at first, but she soon relaxed under the care of Tina and Madam Perenal.

"Eat more, these are your favorites."

Madam Perenal smiled and pushed two plates of French baked snails and foie gras in front of Wayne. Wayne was not polite and accepted the kindness of the elders.

"It's been a long time since we had such a lively time." Perenal also sighed.

After living for more than 600 years, she and Nico had no interest in celebrating festivals. They even celebrated their birthdays with weird behaviors such as pretending to be dead.

But today, the two old people were able to experience the festive atmosphere.

The dinner ended with a classic Marseille fish soup, and everyone came to the living room to chat and kill time.

Because he knew Qiu was coming in advance, Nicole also prepared a gift for her.

"Broomstick stabilizer." Nicole took out something similar to a watch: "I heard that you like Quidditch. This little gadget can make your broom fly more smoothly and comply with the rules of the game."

"We are not as rich as Nico." Tina smiled and asked Newt to bring a box.

"This is a dragon scaleI made this jewelry box, I hope you like it. "

The appearance of the box is not matched, but there is space inside, which is divided into several categories for easy storage and organization.

When it comes to the traceless extension spell, the Scamander family is worthy of being an expert in this field.

With Wayne's approval, Qiu was flattered to put away the gift.

Whether it is the alchemical product made by Nicolas Flamel himself, or the box decorated with real dragon scales, it is an extremely precious thing in the outside world.

At this moment, Qiu felt that the elders of the two families really regarded Wayne as their close junior.

Love the house and the dog, so she was given such a valuable gift.

After a while, Madam Perenelle went to rest, and the Newt couple also left the living room.

Wayne asked Qiu to go back to the room first, and now there were only him and Nico in the living room.

Nicho asked first: "What can't you let Newt know? "

Just now, he received Wayne's gaze, but he was also curious when he saw that he was the only one left.

Wayne explained: "It's not that I want to hide it from the senior, but the fewer people know about it, the better, so don't cause trouble for him."

"Then aren't you afraid of bothering me?" Nico teased him.

"The more capable you are, the more work you will get." Wayne grinned, took out a dragon skin bag, controlled the crown to fly out, and put it on the table.

Seeing that he was so cautious, Nico's expression became much more serious, and he looked at the crown seriously.

Relying on more than 600 years of knowledge reserves and the line of handwriting on the bottom edge of the crown, he quickly guessed and said in shock: "It, it can't be Ravenclaw..."

·· ·······Please give me flowers 0 ····

"Yes, it's the crown of Ravenclaw..."

"Wayne nodded.

Nicole's eyes widened, and he stood up excitedly: "Where did you find it, are you sure?"

He is the greatest alchemist ever recorded in history.

But there are some things that he, or alchemy, cannot do.

For example, the crown is said to increase wisdom.

Through potions and alchemy, a person's memory and mental concentration can be enhanced, but a person's wisdom cannot be improved.

It is impossible to turn a fool like Gollcrab into Voldemort.

But the legendary Ravenclaw crown has such an effect.

Although it is not so exaggerated, the effect is indeed fundamentally different from alchemy.

"I found it at school. "Wayne understood Nico's excitement, but still stood between him and the crown.

"I can guarantee that this is real. If a fake is made into a Horcrux, then Voldemort is too shameless."

"Horcrux?" Nico's face changed and he trotted forward.

Without touching it, he carefully observed it for a long time, and then used his wand to emit a magic power to wrap around the crown, and finally confirmed it.Definitely...

What Wayne said is true.

"What a waste! What a waste!"

Nicole was rarely angry: "Such a treasure, he actually tainted it with the dirtiest black magic!"

"Who can understand a psychopath?"

Wayne shook his head slightly: "Perhaps, he thinks it is an honor to make the crown into a Horcrux."

"What a lunatic."

Originally, Nicole didn't have much feeling for Voldemort. He was just the Dark Lord. He had seen a lot in his life.

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

But now his opinion has changed.

Even among many evil dark wizards, Voldemort is the sickest one.

"I came to you just to see if you can destroy the soul fragments inside without damaging the crown."

Nico showed an embarrassment:

"It's very difficult..."

"This is one of the important reasons why Horcruxes are called the most evil black magic."

"The soul and the object are completely integrated together, indistinguishable from each other, you can regard them as a whole."

"If you want to destroy only the soul fragments inside without damaging the crown... I have to think about it carefully."

Nico sighed: "Many ordinary objects become indestructible after being made into Horcruxes, and can only be destroyed by a few means."

"Have you met other dark wizards who make Horcruxes?" Wayne asked curiously.

"There is no shortage of people pursuing immortality in the world, and I am one of them." Nico nodded slightly, "It's just that I am more fortunate and made the Philosopher's Stone."

"As for Horcruxes, I once destroyed one myself."

"What means did you use?"

"Lieffire." Nico said lightly: "But obviously, we can't use such methods on the crown. Even if you agree, I don't agree."

"It's up to you." Wayne shrugged, looking like a hands-off shopkeeper: "Anyway, I have handed the things to you."

"You just know how to cause trouble for me." Nico scolded with a smile, but looking at his wrinkles, you can tell that the old man actually doesn't dislike such trouble.

There is a chance to study the relics of legendary wizards, and the more troubles, the better.

But Nico naturally couldn't let Wayne be so relaxed: "You can be my assistant these days. Your alchemy has not improved for a long time."

Wayne smiled awkwardly.

"There is still some progress, but not in the traditional field. You will know it later."

After all, human energy is limited. Wayne admitted that when his strength reached the level of a great wizard, he did become a little slack.

There is nothing in this world that can threaten his life. With the Phoenix King, he can also live forever.

Living in an environment without any threats, it is normal for people to be slack.

But since Nico said so, he naturally had to cheer up and not let him down.

.......

In the next two days, the two first conducted a comprehensive test on the crown.

Sure enough, in addition to turning into a Horcrux, the despicable Voldemort also set a secret and vicious black magic on it.

If anyone wears the crown on his head, his mind will be disturbed, and he will have the desire for violence and killing, and turn into a human-shaped beast.

In order to break this spell, Nico specially prepared an ancient potion called cleansing potion, which can purify most of the black magic effects.

Unfortunately, it has no effect on the soul fragments in the Horcrux.

The crown needs to be soaked in the potion for two days and two nights.

When Nico prepared the potion, he placed the crown in a stone basin filled with the solution.

Time unknowingly came to Christmas Eve.

The old man said to Wayne: "Let's go, don't let Perenelle and the others wait too long, it will be my turn to talk about it later."

"Okay."

The two walked out of the laboratory and closed the door heavily.
