"You are finally willing to show up."

"Why do you always like to play missing?"

As soon as he returned to the common room, Albert saw that Fred, George and Lee Jordan all turned their heads and cast a resentful look at him. The Weasley brothers double-teamed, stretched out their hands to hold Albert's shoulders, and Li Jordan nudged Albert from behind, eventually pushing him into an armchair.

"What makes you so excited?" Albert asked with a smile, he felt that something happened 80% of the time.

"Bill sent a letter saying that he helped us walk around Diagon Alley and found some merchants who are willing to rent or sell storefronts." Fred took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Albert, which was Bill's extra time Collect and organize data.

Albert pulled out the parchment inside the envelope and found that there was a simple map of Diagon Alley tucked inside the bulging envelope. It simply marked the location of the shop he was willing to sell, the size of the shop, the selling price, the name and contact address of the shop owner. .

It seems that it is the right choice to give Bill some Galleons and let the other party help.

Of course Albert could ask Dobby the house elf to help collect information, but the information obtained could never be so detailed, and Dobby might expose his relationship with him.

Of course, there are other reasons.

Recently, Dobby has been busy, and if he leaves school to help Albert, a terrible disaster will happen to Gryffindor Tower.

This is actually about Hermione.

Since Hermione still did not intend to give up the idea of liberating the house-elves and put them into action, the house-elves hated the Gryffindor Tower and were unwilling to come here to help clean up, so the Gryffindor Tower Dobby's health depends on it.

"The price they want is a bit expensive!"

After reading it carefully, Albert put the parchment paper back into the envelope and returned it to Fred: "Well, now you can talk to each other first and show that you are willing to buy, but you have to show hesitation, after all we have There are a lot of choices, and after the summer vacation, the price of buying a store will be cheaper, so we don't have to rush to buy a store.

Fred and George looked at each other with expressions like they were.

They took out another notebook, which was full of new store design drawings. This was the store decoration after they inspected the Joko Joke Shop and other stores. It looked very trendy and incredible.

"Does it look great?" Lee Jordan asked with a smile.

"It's really great!" Albert looked at the design drawings in the notebook, nodded and said, "I'm sure our joke shop will be popular with everyone, so it's better to buy a larger store."

In the following period, Fred and George were still busy researching publicity and sales. The joke props they made were very popular at Hogwarts, especially the escaping candy, which was almost sold out, which greatly enhanced confidence of the two.

In the following period, a rather surprising thing happened.

The Quidditch match was canceled.

Although Umbridge was temporarily unable to interfere in the next game, the three Quidditch captains decided to cancel the next Quidditch game after consultation.

Whether it's this year's Academy Cup or the Quidditch trophy, Umbridge has ruined it, and it's no longer worth everyone's effort to fight for it. With its last cheap Slytherin team, it's better to cancel this year's trophy directly. Quidditch, let the Slytherins play by themselves, so that more time can be spent on DA training.

The process of getting stronger is always fascinating, sometimes even more exciting than sleeping with a girl.

Especially for those students who have made rapid progress in the DA meeting, the meeting always makes them feel that they are changing and growing.

With the popularity of the DA party, many Hogwarts students were very interested in Albert's "Guide to Self-Defense", and some even went to Albert to protest, complaining that he planned to wait until graduation before publishing the book .

As for whether DA gatherings are illegal?

Actually, this topic is not important anymore.

Before Umbridge recovers and returns to Hogwarts, DA parties are not illegal, even Filch, everyone is not afraid, the only regret is probably Peeves.

After losing Umbridge, a fun toy, Peeves focused most of his attention on Filch, his old rival.

The administrator no longer has the time and energy to use a whip to find trouble for the students.

Filch, the scapegoat, had to spend a lot of time and energy dealing with Peeves before Umbridge came back to suffer.

After entering late March, the atmosphere in the school suddenly became tense.

The looming Easter break has finally created a sense of urgency for fifth and seventh graders, as they all face the most important exams of their lives.

The library was full every day, making Albert too lazy to go to the library to grab a seat with others.

As for the original Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Professor McGonagall originally asked Albert to help in the class, but this proposal was directly rejected by Albert. He really didn't want to touch this unfortunate position, especially since he was planning to marry Isobel this year, God knows if the curse will be contagious.

Of course Albert knew that the curse would not be for no reason, but he wasn't interested in taking a substitute class either, he just had enough to eat. In the end, this good thing fell to Snape. The Potions Professor was happy to take a temporary substitute and teach everyone about Defence Against the Dark Arts. As we all know, Snape has been spying on the position of the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor. This matter is very important to Hogwarts. Students don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing.

But it was never a good thing for Harry, who had recently fallen out with Snape.

"You're right, I really don't have the talent to learn Occlumency." Harry said to Albert with a sad face. He'd been learning from Snape for months, and Occlumency was still a mess.

"You annoyed Snape?" Albert asked curiously.

"Some unpleasant things have happened," said Harry gloomily. "I'm surprised... Forget it, anyway, Snape messed up my brain, and those dreams not only didn't disappear, they became more and more obvious and more frequent. , I've been using potions lately."

"Even if you say that, I can't teach you. Sometimes it depends on your talent, or you work hard. Maybe you can succeed after a year or two, but time is running out."

Albert felt that Harry definitely didn't come to complain to him, probably because he hoped that he could continue teaching him Occlumency, but Albert didn't intend to agree, that would be troublesome, and there was no gain in sight.

Sometimes people are tough, and Harry himself has a very bad relationship with Snape, and it's normal to suspect that the other party is secretly playing tricks.

Maybe someone else will teach, he will soon learn it?

"I can't help you." Albert shook his head and asked, "Potter, have you ever thought about why you have repeated dreams?"

"What do you know?" Harry asked in a low voice, looking around.

"What did they say?" Albert didn't answer, but asked instead.

"what?"

Harry was confused, not only him, Hermione and Ron were confused.

"You have to understand that there are not so many coincidences in the world. It must not be coincidence that you have those dreams." Albert guided, "Why do you think you have the same dreams frequently."

"Snape, no, I sometimes suspect that I am Voldemort." Harry's face paled slightly, "Perhaps, I was possessed, so..."

Not only Harry, but Hermione and Ron's faces were ugly.

"I don't think you are attached. This should only be influenced by thinking. The connection between you and the mysterious man is very deep, and he is very good at this, so he left some traces." Albert glanced at Harry , continued, "If you want to know the truth, go to Headmaster Dumbledore, he should have a better idea of what's going on."

Harry's lips quivered slightly, but said nothing.

Honestly, he doubted that Dumbledore would be willing to tell him.

"You mean that You-Know-Who made Harry have repeated dreams?" Hermione already realized what Albert wanted to say.

"I think so." Albert nodded to guide the topic, "What do you think is the purpose of the mysterious man, or the purpose?"

"The purpose of the mysterious man?"

The three looked at each other, and after exchanging glances, Harry said, "Makes me curious about that corridor, in fact, I'm really curious about what's at the end of that corridor."

"You mean that the mysterious man is planning to lure Harry to find that corridor?" After Hermione finished speaking, she felt that there was something wrong with her words.

"Your thinking is wrong." Albert said softly.

"what?"

"No matter what the purpose is or what purpose it has, it is a trap, a trap prepared for you." Albert said calmly, "Otherwise, the mysterious person would not waste extra time and energy on you."

"What about you?" Albert didn't say right or wrong, but looked at the others.

"If this is really a trap, how should the mysterious man... let Harry take the bait?" Ron, who had been silent all the time, suddenly asked.

"Everyone has their own weaknesses." Albert looked at Harry and asked directly, "Potter, what are your weaknesses?"

"this"

Harry was a little embarrassed, and to be honest, he didn't actually know what his weakness was.

"You said." Albert looked at Hermione and Ron, "Think about it if you don't know, those weaknesses may be exploited."

"Is it related to weakness?" Ron asked in confusion.

"Related, think about the qualities that most Gryffindors have." Albert glanced at Ron and continued, "Now that you know this is a trap, what should you do?"

"Avoid?" Harry was even more confused. He felt that his brain was not enough, and he couldn't understand the meaning of Albert's words at all. After he took out the intellectual candy from his pocket and swallowed it, he shook his head and said, "Obviously, the mysterious man won't give up easily."

"But, you are not fighting alone." Albert reminded.

"You mean asking Sirius for help?" Harry shook his head again in denial, "He doesn't think even Sirius can help him.

"Why don't you tell Harry directly." Ron looked at Harry, who was thinking hard, and looked at Albert with a frown.

"If you can't think for yourself, then you can't grow up." Albert explained, "You can also help to think together. Flexible thinking can solve a lot of trouble."

"If it were me, if I knew there was a trap ahead and couldn't avoid it, I should prepare in advance to avoid being injured by the trap." Hermione said after thinking carefully.

"I see." Harry said suddenly.

"Know what?" Hermione and Ron looked at Harry together.

"Since it's a trap, why don't we use the trap?" Harry said excitedly, "If we know the trap, we can also use it to deal with those people in turn."

Ron opened his mouth, suddenly not knowing what to say, but Harry continued to speak.

"I know what to do. As long as I step on the trap, someone will definitely jump out of the other party, and then we can figure out what the other party has in mind, so why don't we find someone to come to the other party?" Harry felt himself. It is necessary to chat with Sirius, and it is best to pull the entire Order of the Phoenix into the water.

The most important thing is to reveal the fact that Voldemort is still alive and reverse the current bad situation.

Ron and Hermione were a little confused.

When the three were about to leave, Albert suddenly said, "By the way, Hermione, those things you hid have caused trouble for the house elves."

"What?" Hermione was even more confused.

"Dobby told me that you hide wool hats and socks all over the place, and the house-elves at Hogwarts feel insulted and refuse to clean Gryffindor towers." Albert looked To Hermione, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com reminded, "You will bring a lot of trouble to everyone by doing this."

Hermione was silent for a while, before saying, "So, those woolen hats and socks of mine..."

"...It was all taken by Dobby," Albert originally thought that Hermione would change, but he didn't expect it to change in the end.

A stubborn person like her will probably wake up with a bloodbath.

Albert didn't intend to continue to persuade, but just reminded the other party. After all, the house-elf Dobby will also leave the school together after he graduates. If the house-elf is no longer willing to step into Gryffindor, So the students here are probably in bad luck.

Hermione opened her mouth, suddenly not knowing what to say.

"Dobby will leave Hogwarts with me after this summer. If you can't change your behavior, maybe Gryffindor House will not have anyone to help you pack your clothes." Albert suggested. " Take the time to apologize to the house-elves, they'll forgive you."

Hermione turned pale, looking lost.

"Are you okay?" Harry and Ron exchanged glances, looking at Hermione uneasily.

"It's okay!" Hermione looked disappointed, and Albert's words obviously hit her hard. Once she apologized, it meant denying all her previous efforts.

Are you really wrong?
