Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Lin Xia picked up the diamond. The diamond reflected a gleam of light. Information about this strange object flashed through her mind, and she was a little surprised:

"Memory diamonds, as the name suggests, are special items for storing memories. The effect is not as powerful as the pensieve, but it is still rare."

As for the Pensieve, I’m sorry to say that not everyone can afford it.

Most wizards will only automatically forget less vivid memories.

Except for some powerful wizards, their experiences are too rich, and forgetting any part of them will be a loss, so they need a pensieve.

The Pensieve also has the function of deepening memory. The memories stored in the Pensieve can be fully displayed, making people immersed in it.

Lin Xia shook his head, "Unfortunately, this memory diamond is too small and has limited memory storage. I don't have a special container to trigger the memory."

Through the Balance of Destiny, she vaguely knew the use of memory diamonds. She had to collect the same memory diamonds until a certain number was reached before a memory would be automatically triggered.

It seems that Voldemort still has a lot of hair to lose.

Lin Xia was very curious. Voldemort had become such a ghost, and the memories that could still be stored in his mind were definitely very precious.

News that a group of students at the school had fainted over the weekend, the first day of school on Monday, has spread to all grade levels.

Several Hufflepuff first years also fainted.

Some young wizards speculated: "They all suffered from the same disease, so they fainted at the same time. There must be a brand new virus circulating in Hogwarts!"

"No, no, no, I think they are more like a curse, a curse that will make them fall asleep at a certain moment."

"You said this, touch your conscience, do you believe it? The curse will not only make them fall asleep at the same time, but also make them fall asleep in the same place?"

"Why do I feel so like a puppet? Are they controlled by someone?"

The little wizards accidentally bumped into each other and vaguely guessed the truth of the matter.

Suddenly, there was a tremor in the school, and the sales of the guardian talismans were extremely popular.

Many young wizards are worried about their own safety, so they are not stingy with the gold galleons in their hands, buying a guardian talisman and keeping it in their pockets at all times.

Some of them hang directly on the wrist, and the guardian charms are looming when you move around, which is quite cool.

There is no shop in Hogwarts, and all food is provided by the school. As for other items, you can write to your parents and ask the owl to deliver them to them.

But there are many shops in Hogsmeade village near the school, and many students like to go there during weekends.

Some clever people took advantage of the disturbing news to go to Hogsmeade Village through the school's secret passage early in the morning and bought a large number of guardian talismans.

I went to the fellow villagers to purchase goods, and then returned to school to sell to the fellow villagers.

Buy low, sell high, and make a huge profit from the price difference.

…

"Ron, I want to buy a few more guardian talismans. Can you ask your twin brother to give me the goods in advance?" Draco looked at Ron and asked.

It was another Potions class, with Hufflepuff and Gryffindor taking the class together.

Lin Xia and Draco arrived at the classroom early, and unexpectedly discovered that the four Gryffindors, who always liked to arrive late, arrived earlier than them.

Hermione believed that there was a potion in the world that could instantly restore all energy and vitality to people, but they just didn't know about it.

Just because she didn't know didn't mean she didn't have it, so she actively pulled everyone together and arrived at the Potions classroom early to see if she could find any clues from the collection of books at the back of the classroom.

What made Hermione a little disappointed was that the books in the classroom were all related to human body and animal anatomy.

Lin Xia quietly previewed the textbook. Draco sat next to Ron and couldn't help but ask.

He had already bought two guardian talismans and gave one to Lin Xia.

But he felt that one was not very safe. Hundreds of little wizards fainted in the same place at the same time, which was too scary. He wanted to buy a few more to put on his body, but he didn't have money.

Unfortunately, the guardian talisman is so popular that it has been sold out for a long time. If you still want it, you can only pre-order it.

Ron was stunned, widened his eyes and asked, "You said, my brother can get the goods?"

Draco asked strangely: "Yes, your twin brother is the largest supplier, don't you know?"

Ron said in disbelief: "I don't know. They said they were worried about me and gave me the Patronus Charm they bought. I only need to give three gold galleons. This is all my wealth!"

Lin Xia raised her head and looked at Ron curiously, "Three gold galleons, but Draco bought two gold galleons from them."

Hermione added: "You are all paying too much. They are selling them at the door of the girls' dormitory. They only cost one gold galleon."

Several people looked at each other, not knowing whether to be angry that the twins were sold at different prices by different people, or to feel sorry for their biological brother who was ripped off so cruelly by their own people.

Ron's face showed shame, anger, embarrassment, sadness...all kinds of emotions were mixed together, like a palette covered with paste.

"me……"

Snape's voice suddenly sounded from behind everyone——

"Let's take a look at the great and famous Harry Potter, his friends, and some Hufflepuff imps."

He glanced at them with a cold gaze, "They are all in class, and they are still chatting as if no one else is watching. They don't pay attention to the professor at all. Gryffindor and Hufflepuff will deduct 10 points each!"

The Gryffindor students were already immune, and they hadn't gotten any extra points in Potions since the beginning of the term.

As for Hufflepuff, to be honest, they are not as eager for the House Cup as other houses.

I am happy about the extra points, but the deduction?

It seems that I am not that sad.

This class continues to make scabies potion, which is the final lesson. In the next class, they will learn to mix new potions.

Lin Xia is still in the same group with Neville. With her timely reminder, Neville completed the preparation of scabies potion again and regained some confidence in himself.

Neville thought: He has some talent for potions.

As for Lin Xia, she finished the preparation of scabies potion in a few minutes, combining the extra herbs with sulfur to try new combinations.

She has tried several times in the laboratory in the golden wooden house, but still lacks a little inspiration.

At this point, she can only use the dumbest method, taking the amount of sulfur added as a variable, and repeating the experiment again and again until the best solution is selected.

It is quite like a blind cat encountering a dead mouse, gambling on luck.

Snape repeatedly passed by Lin Xia and wanted to say something several times, but was forced back by the perfect, impeccable scabies potion that Lin Xia placed on the table.

After the Potions class was over, the students fled like birds, and more than half of them left.

Those who did not leave were also packing up their things and rushing to leave.

Only Lin Xia and others stayed where they were.

Hermione did not dare to ask Professor Snape questions directly, and planned to ask him in a roundabout way if he could recommend some books about the effects of potions.

Lin Xia talked to Snape first and asked directly: "Professor, is there any item that can keep people energetic and break the curse?"
