Hogwarts starts with stealing power

There are no classes in the afternoon.

Lin Xia and Draco decided to go to the laboratory they applied for.

If possible, they will make preparations for the experiment today and start the project as soon as possible.

They have been waiting for the laboratory for a long time.

The laboratory is located in another corridor on the second floor, one on the left and one on the right of the corridor where classes are held.

Unless the little wizard gets lost, he will basically not walk to this corridor.

Lin Xia was also brought to this corridor by the movable staircase when she was exploring Hogwarts on the weekend, and then she discovered the abnormality of this empty classroom.

Draco and Lin Xia opened it with the key given by the professor, walked in, and couldn't help but exclaimed.

This empty classroom is much larger than expected, it is actually the size of four football fields!

Draco's serious expression revealed a smile, "This space must have used the traceless extension spell, otherwise it is hard to explain that it looks like an ordinary classroom from the outside, but there is such a large space inside."

I don't know what he thought of, he said: "I think we can open a zoo here!"

Lin Xia also smiled: "There is no need to open a zoo, that is too troublesome, but I can set aside a special area to raise some magical creatures as our raw materials."

"Raw materials?"

Lin Xia reminded him: "You forgot that I applied for this laboratory under the name of magnetic wands, so the external statement is to study magic wands, but don't I have to prepare some animal hair to make magic wands?"

That said, but Lin Xia thought of the three wand-making schemes given in the Zhiming Compass.

Really, none of them requires the hair of magical creatures, but all require magical plants.

Draco cheered up and said, "I'll go measure the size now and make a plan."

Lin Xia said in an orderly manner, "Don't worry, what did your father say in the letter? You were absent-minded when you were eating. You were distracted when Toure and Robin talked to you."

Draco had a bitter smile on his face, "I can't hide it from you."

"Tell me, maybe I can help you."

The Malfoy family has helped her a lot, and coupled with the friendship between her parents, Lin Xia called Lucius "uncle", which was sincere.

However, facing Draco, who was born a month earlier than her, she couldn't call him "brother".

There was no way, she couldn't accept being the youngest.

From childhood to adulthood, from the past to the present, she has always been the eldest.

Seeing this, Draco said it directly: "I received a letter from my father. The letter seemed to be ordinary family matters, but my father used the family code."

Code?

Lin Xia looked a little more serious.

"Did something happen to the Malfoy family?" she asked.

Draco shook his head: "The family is fine, but my father wants me to strive to become an excellent student as soon as possible. If possible, ask for your help if necessary.

I can feel that he was very anxious when he wrote this letter, and he made a few mistakes in the words. It is not elegant at all, which is very unusual."

It is okay to make him an excellent student.

But it is a problem to make him an excellent student as soon as possible.

It is okay to ask him to seek Lin Xia's help.

But it is definitely a problem to use the wrong words in an anxious tone.

In Draco's impression, his father is always unhurried and slow, and his speech is full of aristocratic cultivation.

Before Draco really admired Lin Xia, all his actions were imitating his father.

So this letter is not written like Lucius.

Lin Xia asked, "Did he tell you anything?"

Draco shook his head, "No, that's why I'm a little anxious."

Lin Xia thought for a while and said, "Calm down first. If something really happened, your father would definitely tell you.

Now that he hasn't come to you, it proves that things are not irreversible yet and he can solve it."

Her parents are exploring in the Amazon forest, and even if she writes to ask, it's too far away.

"So, what you can do now is to follow his requirements as much as possible and become an excellent student as quickly as possible."

Lin Xia doesn't reject Draco becoming an excellent student.

As her chosen partner, the better Draco is, the more he can help her with many things.

She is willing to give away her skills, and she won't care about an excellent student quota.

Besides, Hogwarts' excellent student training system is not without loopholes.

For example, the school stipulates that research talents must have an experimental result a year.

But the school does not require the level of this experimental result to be achieved, whether it can be pushed out and sold, or it is better than the previous results.

In addition, the school does not require students to produce any research records, and does not even require students to write papers.

So, here comes the question.

How do you know whether the experimental results are the students' own or bought from somewhere else?

There are poor people in the wizarding world.

Some wizards are obsessed with studying magic, and they spend all their money on magic, which leads to disasters and they cannot avoid danger. It is not surprising that they have to sell the experimental results.

Even in the process of selecting outstanding students at Hogwarts, there are many loopholes to be exploited.

If the ability to publish papers in professional journals is used as the standard for selecting research talents, then if this paper is purchased by students through other channels, it is not impossible for the owner to publish it.

After all, not every paper needs to hold a press conference.

In short, there are too many loopholes to be exploited.

She believed that Hogwarts was not short of smart people with plans.

Draco was enlightened by Lin Xia, and he was relieved. He immediately measured the area of ​​the empty classroom and drew a floor plan.

He planned to hand over the layout plan to professionals for design.

As for the construction, he could ask the professor for help when necessary.

Draco was suddenly very glad that he was assigned to Hufflepuff. The professors of their college were very easy to talk to and willing to help them.

If it was Professor Snape...

Draco shook his head and forgot it.

On the other side, Lin Xia found a secret door in the empty classroom and went in to check.

There was nothing inside, about half the size of an ordinary classroom.

She asked Draco to help her keep an eye out, closed the door, and planned to activate the secret key here.

The secret key was not in the shape of a key, but a black card.

One side was blank, and the other side had silver stars and moons, a golden sun, and many unknown celestial bodies flying around the sun and moon.

The activation ceremony was not complicated. Professor Sprout gave her a small note.

The handwriting on the note was very sloppy, as if the professor had written it casually.

[Align the Hogwarts Outstanding Student Badge to a certain position on the secret key card and embed it into it. The secret key will be automatically activated, and the badge can be used to browse related information]

Lin Xia turned the card over, and she didn't see any uneven spots.

But when she touched it, she felt an uneven spot.
