days at Hogwarts

Chapter 22 Leisurely Sunday Time

The next morning, Harry's eye sockets were dark.

During breakfast, Loren sipped black tea leisurely. Hogwarts' food conditions were really good.

Harry looked at Loren several times, hesitated to speak, and almost couldn't even eat well.

Loren was a little helpless, he was really an honest child.When Harry glanced at Loren again, Loren couldn't help it, and put down his teacup, "Don't look, I teased you last night, I don't know how to read minds at all."

Harry relaxed a little when he heard that, not knowing how much he believed it.

"I'm going to visit the library, do you want to come together?" Loren wanted to make a study plan for himself.

Harry didn't really want to study, but Ron wasn't there and he had nothing else to do. "Well, well, I just haven't started my homework yet."

Loren reached out and wrapped a few egg tarts in paper and put them in his pocket: "Which subject?"

Harry was inexplicably proud: "Every subject!"

An egg tart was not held firmly and fell off the plate.

The Hogwarts library is on the second floor of the castle. The bookshelves are connected to the bookshelves, extending from one end to the other. The bookshelves are getting smaller and smaller, but there is no end in sight.

Loren felt that magic similar to the Untraceable Stretching Curse should have been used here. The area inside is much larger than the outside, and there are almost tens of thousands of books.

The library of Hogwarts has been handed down by generations of students and teachers. There are many orphans and books that the outside world has stopped printing.The school board will allocate a special fund every year to purchase new books.It can be said that apart from the Ministry of Magic, there is no richer collection of books than this.

There was no one around the bookshelf in a certain range. Loren saw several books with thick iron chains extending from the cover, and the other end of the iron chain was connected to the bookshelf, as if growing out of the bookshelf. In order to prevent someone from flipping through.

There were several other books, with lights of different colors in his eyes, and signs of magic evident in them.

That should be the restricted area.

It contains a lot of magic that Loren wants, Fiendfire, Legilimency.However, they all need the professor's authorization and proof to borrow them. No matter how talented a first-year freshman is, there is no reason to borrow books in the restricted area, unless he wants to be recorded on the priority list by Dumbledore.

Harry took out the accumulated homework and started to catch up.

Loren felt that this should be caused by Ron. There was not much homework in the first week, so Loren finished it in the time between classes.But fortunately, at least at this time Harry hadn't learned to copy his homework.

In fact, if Loren hadn't dragged Harry to the library, Harry would have started each class the day before homework was due, and he thought it would be more efficient that way.

Loren selected some needed books on the bookshelf, "Development from Gump's Basic Transformation Law", "The Properties of Potion's Basic Materials", "The Basic Principles of Simple Spells", these correspond to Transformation Spells, Potions, and the basics of magic spells. So the basic knowledge is like the relationship between Abelian groups and addition within ten.

Juanwang experience: After establishing a general knowledge system from the bottom, it will be easier to learn.

Loren and Harry were not surprised that Hermione came to the library soon after.But she didn't read the textbook, or any information, it seemed like a novel, with her head buried in the book, showing a little smile from time to time.

Loren gnawed on the tome until he was dazed. When he looked up, he saw Hermione staring at the book with bright eyes, occasionally smiling and showing her cute front teeth, and then she closed her mouth again.

"Wandering with werewolves?" Loren read directly from the book cover.

Hermione looked up, with a happy expression on her face: "Yes, I saw you bought this book when I was at Lihen Bookstore, and it's also available in the library, so I'll find it and have a look."

Loren was a little surprised: "I was hoping to find some werewolf-related books and look up some werewolf information. Later, I found out that this book has no content at all."

Hermione frowned. She liked this book very much, and she couldn't speak too loudly in the library. She leaned closer and asked, "Why do you say that? The stories here are very exciting, and they are adapted from the author's real experience."

Loren noticed that the little witch's eyebrows were thick, and pulled some distance away: "There is not much knowledge about werewolves in it, and most of them are describing or highlighting how wise and powerful the author is."

After a pause, he added: "If it weren't for the wonderful experience, this book would be terrible. The author's narcissism is about to emerge from the book."

Loren didn't say that even those wonderful experiences were all cheated and robbed by Lockhart.When he bought the book, he knew that Lockhart was a liar, but he still hoped to learn some useful werewolf knowledge from the book to help Grandpa Bates.It's a pity that I was almost blinded by the hot man's smile.

Hermione thought about it for a while, she didn't feel it when she was immersed in the story just now, but now she jumped out and looked at it, it really seemed that the author praised herself repeatedly, even the smiling illustrations in the book became dazzling.

Hermione was a little helpless to find that she couldn't refute it, as if that was the case.She memorized the book day and night, and finally found a way to relax. Now she can't read the book anymore, and she is even a little annoyed at Loren: "Then what are you reading?"

Loren spread out his hands to show it, and saw that the content was only learned in senior grades, and Hermione began to guide again: "These books are the content that we will come into contact with later, we should learn the things in the textbook first."

Loren also tried to reverse Hermione's concept: "It's not enough to rely on the back to read the dead books. It will be faster and easier to learn if you understand the principles and sort out the knowledge system."

This touches on the professor's authority in Hermione's mind. Do you know more about magic than the professor? Her voice was a bit sharp: "Then why didn't the professor teach this first!"

Mrs. Pince appeared behind the two in an instant, gave them a slap on the back of the head: "Get out! This is not a place for you to quarrel!" and drove them out of the library.

Harry said that fortunately, it was not a topic he could participate in. Why do we think about it so much? How does the teacher teach us how to learn.I don't get it, these people are really weird.

"Ah~" So sleepy, Harry yawned, he didn't sleep well last night.

Otherwise, I'd better go back to catch up on sleep first, and let's talk about homework. With this thought, homework can no longer be done.

The atmosphere of Loren and Hermione who were kicked out was still stiff.

Loren finds it very strange, if you don't agree with me, just say it out, why are you so angry.

Hermione also found it very strange, she obviously shouldn't be so excited, but she just couldn't help it.

The two separated at the stairway, and Hermione couldn't read the book for a while, and she wandered around the castle unconsciously.After walking to the third floor, she found that she had come to a room full of trophies, medals and the like.

Hermione looked all the way over, the Quidditch Cups and the House Cups, which were polished to a shine, were neatly placed in the display case... There were also group photos of players from the previous four college Quidditch teams.

Among the many unfamiliar faces, the figure of a girl caught her attention. The girl in the photo sensed Hermione's gaze, jumped up happily and waved to her.

Hermione knew that this was the reason why the developing potion was added to the photo, so she recorded the girl's movements at that time, but this was Professor McGonagall!

Although the girl in the photo was younger, with a kind of vitality that Professor McGonagall could not see now, she was still easily recognizable.

Hermione was very surprised. She didn't expect Professor McGonagall to be a Quidditch player when he was a student. He was so energetic and presumptuous, which was completely different from what he is now.

After stopping in front of the photo for a while, Hermione walked forward, and she soon discovered something new—it was a small gold-plated shield, inlaid on top of another large one, and the small shield read:
