Chapter 4 Hermione and Her Two Useless Men, Part 1
"Merlin! You are reading at home again. I dare say you will be sorted into Ravenclaw. My mother said the same thing. She always hopes that I can be like you."
Ron looked exaggerated, but then realized that it was not right to say so, and changed his words: "I am not saying that you are not good, I am saying - we are not in school yet, right?"
From Ron's tone, it seems that he will study hard after he goes to school.
Although Andy has not seen the subsequent movies of "Harry Potter", he has heard a friend mention that the real content of this movie is actually "Hermione and Her Two Useless Men".
Just like "Little Fish and Flower" is actually "The Survivor List".
"I prefer reading."
Andy explained casually, invited Ron to sit on the sofa, and asked: "What to drink, orange juice?"
"Of course!"
Ron said excitedly: "How about playing Quidditch later? I brought a broom and wrote to Charlie to learn a lot of secrets."
"You said the same thing last time." Andy shrugged.
Andy can actually understand Ron.
Ron, who was born in the magic world, has few friends of the same age, and cannot go to the Muggle village to play. Although his life is leisurely, it is actually very boring.
But Andy likes the life in the magic world very much.
Here, you are close to nature, life is stress-free, and you can do whatever you like.
Most importantly, there is magical magic here.
Think about your past life again.
The technology in the past life was very advanced, and life was actually very comfortable. But Andy has a busy job every day, and overtime has become the norm. He often feels heavy pressure in life.
Well, maybe it was his childhood life that gave Andy this illusion.
"Last time it was an accident!"
Making excuses for one's failure is what most people would do, and Ron is the best among them. "Just watch, I won't let you score another goal this time."
"Isabelle!"
Andy shouted, and the little girl ran over in slippers, puffing her face and angrily said: "Stinky Andy, where did you hide my snacks?"
"You have to find it yourself, this is a great adventure."
Andy responded with a sentence, and then said: "Ron and I are going to play Quidditch, are you going?"
"Of course!" The little girl was immediately diverted.
Ron looked at Andy with admiration: "You are really amazing, if I do this, I will be killed by my mother."
Andy rolled his eyes, that's because Ginny is the only girl in your family.
To be honest, the magic world is actually a bit patriarchal. Of course, this is because the society of the magic world is still relatively backward.
After drinking orange juice, Andy said, "Let's go."
Although Ron's arrival disturbed Andy's reading time, as a psychologically mature adult, Andy rarely lost patience with children.
Unless the child made a big mistake.
And Andy didn't want to be too different.
Having a friend can at least reassure Kyle and Helen.
The Quidditch field was built by adult wizards nearby. It's not high, but it's enough for young wizards to play.
And the result of the game was no surprise. Ron was defeated by Andy again.
Ron's skills are actually okay, especially since Andy doesn't play Quidditch at all. The two of them are about the same.
But Ron has a fatal weakness. His psychological endurance is too fragile. As long as he is at a disadvantage, he will easily lose confidence and collapse at any time.
Although he understands this, Andy did not comfort Ron's thoughts.
What children hate most is the preaching of their peers, especially when their peers point out their shortcomings-even if you are well-intentioned.
The reason why Hermione was isolated in the original book was also because of this. Andy would naturally not knowingly commit a crime.
"Ron, it's almost noon, come to my house for lunch!"
"Thank you, but my mother told me to go back at noon."
"Okay then! I'll take Isabel to your house to visit Mrs. Weasley in a few days."
"Hey! My mother will be so happy. I mean, she likes you very much."
Saying goodbye to Ron, Andy gave a thumbs up to his words.
Look, just a few words can prevent Ron from coming to see him again in the next few days, and he is very happy.
Flying home with the little girl, Helen is already preparing lunch.
"Mom, how is the potion brewing?"
"It will take a month."
"Big business!"
Ordinary potions can usually be made in a few hours, but the price is also very cheap, while potions like this that take many days to brew are usually ridiculously expensive.
"Keep it confidential." Helen knew that Andy was always very smart and mature, but she still carefully reminded him.
"Is it the Polyjuice Potion?" Andy asked in a low voice.
Helen gave Andy a knowing look.
Andy decided to pay close attention to the Daily Prophet in a month, because the guy who bought the Polyjuice Potion might make a big news.
After lunch, Helen, who had already handled the preliminary work of the potion, was free, which meant that poor Isabel would lose an afternoon of freedom.
The little girl looked at Andy expectantly.
Perhaps for the little girl, finding the snacks hidden by her brother would be the most interesting game in her entire childhood.
Andy ignored the little girl's call for help. He didn't want to get himself involved.
Arriving in the study, Andy looked through the bookshelf, looking for the magic books he could read at the moment.
"I really hope I can get my wand soon."
Having read almost all the books he could read, Andy took out the book "Research and Development of Ancient Witchcraft" that he had read in the morning and turned to the chapter introducing Obscurus again.
According to Andy's understanding, the difference in strength between adult wizards is not too big. Just like when Muggles fight with bare hands, there will be a gap, but it will never be as outrageous as the gap between ordinary people and supermen.
Maybe Voldemort and Dumbledore are exceptions?
"But how did this gap come about?"
This is not the first time Andy has thought about this question. It is obviously not in the books, otherwise those ancient magic masters would have long been separated from ordinary wizards.
However, the fact is that the gap between wizards is actually the same as that between Muggles. It is not based on strength, but on money.
"Maybe... there are records in the books about how to improve strength, but... it's very hidden?"
"Just like the records about Obscurus."
A normal wizard would definitely think that this thing is very scary when seeing the records about Obscurus, and would also think, "Fortunately I didn't become an Obscurus."
But the existence of Obscurus undoubtedly proves the possibility of the fusion of mental power and magic power.
"Maybe I should read these magic books again and look for those small details that have been mentioned but ignored."
