MTL - 94 Diagon Alley-Chapter 17 Festival
"We can't do it all at once, and I guess the Aurors don't have such strong protective equipment. Maybe we can start from the first layer, like how can we not look into Medusa's eyes."
"Like a pair of glasses?" George took over, and by the way helped his brother pat Gwen's shoulder vigorously, um, a little awkward.
"Then we have to figure out whether the sight of her eyes will be petrified, or this is actually a kind of magic, but we use wands, and Medusa needs to use eyes as a medium. Goblins and house-elves don't need a wand to use magic. The petrified magic shoots out of her eyes..." Gwen felt the twins look at her half-smile, a little dejected. "Okay, I know you want to laugh. I also think this legendary monster might not exist at all. Are we really going to make this prop?"
"You're mistaken, Gwen." Fred twirled his wand between his fingers, "No one knows what happened to the Chamber of Secrets or what attacked the students. So we The more you do, the more you earn. Of course, if these props happen to be really useful, our three names will appear in the trophy room on the third floor next year. Sorry, my name (F) will appear in your and Before George (G)."
Gwen was speechless. After a while she turned to George and said, "You know George, sometimes I really want to punch your brother."
George rolled his eyes, "Don't forget to call me then."
Here, Gwen is still searching for materials in the library. She vowed to understand the principle of petrification of Medusa, and even went to Professor Keitelborn who protects magical creatures for advice, although The old man looked at her suspiciously, and reiterated that there was no such thing as a magical creature called Medusa.
On the other hand, the Weasley twins were staring at the sophomore trio in addition to training night tours, and Fred complained that Ron smelled of old sewer potion. Gwen was secretly glad that she didn't have time to chat with a few little wizards recently, and she couldn't stand the smell of sewers.
After the Duel Club announced its event, the Gwens and Weasleys introduced their first magical protection product - a tie clip that deflects petrification spells. Sales were so good that within a week, more than half of the Hogwarts students were wearing that red tie clip, and the rest were almost all Slytherin students. On the one hand, they are not afraid of the threat of the secret room. On the other hand, because of the twins' bad taste, they only produced red tie clips, which really did not match the green tie of Slytherin.
, but that would be too time-consuming and dangerous. Fortunately, the students were really frightened by the appearance of petrochemicals. The twins who could do business run around several colleges with a box of tie clips every day. Even if the price increased by 100 million points, these gadgets were sold out.
"The quality of this batch of tie clips is average, and can only block three attacks. We can make another batch. I see that a few students have wasted a few rebounds when they tried it out, and they can make money again. Money It makes me happy." Gwen happily counted Yinxi Ke, who was about to distribute dividends to her partner, when George pressed it down.
"Gwen, we've got you a new business." George laughed so hard that his molars couldn't hide, "You can forget about Medusa and glasses..."
"...Now more people have heard about the battle of the century between Harry and Malfoy, and those fools say that Harry is the heir of Slytherin." Fred also issued an undisguised statement. Laughing, "So we can earn the gold Galleon of these fools, at a higher price!"
"That's funny, the heir of Slytherin is in Gryffindor, Merlin can jump out of the coffin three times. But what do we do? Stay away from Harry's badge? I disagree..."
"Of course, of course." George reassured her. "We don't want to lose a friend either, especially since he's the best Seeker in our college."
"Just a little change of the spell, maybe a little more..." Fred and George high-five insidiously.
"You two look like bad guys now." Gwen pulled out his wand.
The so-called new product is nothing more than a duel spell against Mr. Potter and Mr. Malfoy, the idol of the public - or now the enemy of the people. Because just a few days later, the Weasley twins' cries became "rebound grins and hula la badges," "rebound tarantella cufflinks," and most importantly, "they're still snake-repelling badges. and cufflinks".
Things go back to a few days ago, in an empty classroom, Gwen looked at a pile of orange granular solid and was speechless.
"What is this? Stone?"
The Weasley brothers with their shoulders clasped on their backs were flushed, waiting to be complimented: "That's cockscomb, the Orientals call it realgar." The kind-hearted George looked at the confused Gwen reluctantly He explained: "This is a potion ingredient that can drive away snakes and worms. Harry had a conversation with a snake at the dueling club a few days ago, and everyone said he was Parseltongue..." "Stupid Hufflepuff is still afraid of him. Send snakes to attack the students." Fred again showed that look of contempt for the mentally retarded.
"If I remember correctly, that Hufflepuff student was petrified the next day."
"Are you doubting Harry? Gwen." Fred asked in disbelief.
"Of course not, well, I'll grind these cockscombs and add them."
"That's right, man." Fred nodded in satisfaction, "but we won't sell it to Harry. He can drive the snake away with a single word, cool!"
"But where did this cockscomb come from?" Gwen frowned and didn't dare to reach out.
Fred said cheerfully, "Professor Snape's personal collection, of course. He recently lost several expensive medicinal herbs - we suspect little brothers Ron and Harry did - since So, it's not our style to not hitch a ride and steal two things..."
"...And Ron will be willing to help us take the blame, he's used to it." George also smiled and made up for it.
Gwen thanked her parents for having only one child, and cheered her up to cast spells on the badges one by one. She had just been terrified of stealing something from the potions professor, and she remembered how much she earned this semester When Jin Galleon arrived, he was immediately satisfied like a greedy dragon. In the end, he said to the overwhelmed twins with a clear conscience:
"Ginny is still not right lately, she looks weak. I even suspect she doesn't sleep at all at night, maybe she's frightened too. I could make her a bigger badge. It's her My good brothers, you should go talk to her and care more about her..."
The two redheads shrugged helplessly, "She's been hiding from us recently..."
"She also avoids me, but if you go to 'comfort' her with scabies all over, it will be strange that Ginny doesn't hide. Please give her some 'normal' care."
Merry Christmas, Gwen
Gwen was not able to come home to accompany Mr. Ollivander at Christmas as planned, because Fred and George had inquired about Harry and their little plan somewhere.
"It's the perfect time. If you want to do something bad, Christmas Eve is the time when people let their guard down the most." George pushed the non-existent glasses and said cogently.
Gwen was a little frustrated, "I haven't had time to buy a gift yet, I may have to rely on mail order this year." Then he signed his name on the detention list and added pitifully, "This is It's the first time I've been away from home for Christmas, and old Garrick will miss me."
Fred looked at Gwen pouting in shock, "Sober up, don't act like a girl," he said.
Gwen's face changed immediately, "Your eyesight is so good!" After Yan Bi, she looked down at her chest, feeling that it would not cause any misunderstanding of gender, "I'm so sorry, I never left the house. The little girl who is going to write a letter to grandpa, and then cry herself." After saying that, she picked up the book and ran away.
"Brother, you can catch up and comfort Miss Myrtle." Fred reached for a drumstick and patted George's thigh with his oily hand.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" George twisted in his seat, looking unnatural.
However, Gwen is indeed an extraordinary witch. Under the routine of the twins, they were reconciled the next day. Or even if she can bear the two brothers who jump out of various secret passages at any time, she can't bear their enthusiasm for always wanting to give herself a toilet seat.
"Why do you always find me?" Gwen put Katie behind him suspiciously.
"It's a man's secret, shh."
Christmas dawn came, and the weather was cold and white. Only Harry, Ron and the two Weasley twins were left in the dorm. Gwen had just tiptoed to see Hermione, who was neatly dressed, holding a gift, entered Harry's dormitory, and turned around to get the package he prepared.
After the three of Ron left the dormitory, Gwen first dropped the package on the bedside of the two sophomore boys. She gave Harry a bottle of conditioner, which happened to be a Potter product. Gwen felt that since they had an invention to smoothen their hair, there was no reason to allow their children to wear a messy haircut. Both Hermione and Ginny received a beautiful error-correcting quill. Ron's wand has always made Gwen very entangled. She feels that a wizard's wand is not enough, but although the Weasley family is not very wealthy, they will not be willing to accept charity from outsiders. After thinking for a long time, she gave Ron a golden draw after getting permission from Mr. Ollivander
