Chapter 67 Opening Sale! Only 998!

After experiencing the second attack by the basilisk, all the teachers and students in the school finally knew an important piece of information: somewhere in the Hogwarts castle, in the Slytherin's secret room, there is a very terrifying Basilisk! It recently came out at night to attack students! Therefore, Hogwarts implemented the strictest curfew from the day after Colin was attacked!

Just this morning, after the students finished their breakfast, Principal Dumbledore personally announced a new school rule: All students in the school must return to the lounge in advance before dark! All evening club activities or courses are cancelled! Courses are all adjusted to daytime hours! Any student who lingers outside the lounge after dark! Once found! All will be severely punished!

Some middle-aged professors in the school were also divided into several groups by Principal Dumbledore, and they were required to take turns on duty! At night, a group of these professors patrols the main castle! Be on guard against the basilisk that may appear at any time!

Because of the current situation in Hogwarts, the lounge of Gryffindor College after dinner today will be more lively than ever! Students of all grades who have nothing to do and don't want to go to bed too early are gathering together in twos and threes. Most of the people were talking about topics of interest to each other, some were burying their heads in catching up with the homework that could never be finished, and some were leisurely playing wizard chess that they could move by themselves.

It is now strictly forbidden to go out of the Gryffindor lounge! Headmaster Dumbledore's dog legs, the two male and female prefects are sitting on a chair each, with their legs crossed, guarding the exit of the lounge and waiting for them! They have just received an order that after this time of day, everyone in Gryffindor College is only allowed to enter! Don't come out!

So, now the students don't have much choice for them to go except the common room hall and their own dormitories! It's all about that damn basilisk and curfew! But for the sake of their own lives, although the students were a little dissatisfied, they were not stupid enough to do something like use a spell to hide from the prefect standing guard and sneak out!

"Harry, I want to ask you something! Are you really the heir of Slytherin?" Ron finally couldn't bear the loneliness after finishing half of his homework, and asked Harry in a low voice.

After Colin was attacked last night, some rumors began to spread in the school today: In fact, Harry Potter is the heir of Slytherin! He also said that it was the basilisk he released! The reason is because, at the Dueling Club last night, Harry actually spoke Parseltongue! He also wanted to direct the snake to attack Malfoy! And the Parseltongue is one of the signs of the heir of Slytherin!

"Of course not! Ron! Why do you have to doubt me? I could have been with Hermione and the others last night! And I never left halfway!!" Harry angrily refuted Ron's question ! He was fined by Snape to write ten pages of homework today, but now he is very annoying! Who would have thought that Ron would still bother him with such questions! Are they still friends?

"Ron! You! Hey...!" Hermione, who was reading a book quietly, sighed and shook her head! She was really anxious about Ron's IQ now!

Madam Pomfrey really shouldn't have let him come back early, she should have left him alone in the school infirmary at night, and let that Slytherin basilisk attack him! It's better to petrify him too, then no one will ask such stupid questions again!

"Don't you know the situation at that time? Harry and I walked back with me and a few other classmates after I finished dueling club lessons! He didn't leave halfway, and he didn't commit any crime at all. Time! There is no motive for committing the crime! You know, Harry and Colin have a pretty good relationship! They are friends!" Hermione couldn't understand,

With a lot of classmates who could testify, how could he still doubt Harry? This is really...! Forget it! Hermione suddenly didn't want to talk about Ron! Or continue to read her own book!

"But... that's what everyone else said." Ron shrank his neck, a little afraid to meet Hermione's eyes. He just asked curiously, why did she lose her temper so much? How dare you speak in such a harsh tone!

"Do you believe what other people say? Don't you believe what we say? Ha! This is really funny!" Hermione was so angry that she glared at Ron in disbelief! The meaning is obvious: what is your brain for? Display? Do you believe everything those Slytherins say? Now you not only don't help Harry, but you also boo along with him?

"Ah! I'm sorry, Harry! I really didn't mean that! I'm just... just curious that you can speak Parseltongue! That's right! That's right! It's Parseltongue after all! It is said that Slytherin back then That's right! So..." Seeing Harry on the side looking at him angrily, Ron quickly apologized and explained.

When Hermione, Harry and Ron were entangled in whether Harry was the heir, the Weasley twin brothers George and Fred suddenly took a large bag of things, opened the entrance, and He rushed to the middle of the lounge in a hurry, and climbed to the top of the public round table.

The actions of the twins startled the two prefects standing guard! They don't know what these two guys are doing? It's only now that I'm rushing back against the clock! If it wasn't for a little time before the official curfew, Fred and Fred would definitely be arrested by the prefect and handed over to Professor McGonagall for handling!

"Good news! Good news! Ladies and gentlemen! Look at us! We have good news for you tonight! Great news!" George and Fred ignored the angry eyes of the other students , After standing on the round table, George took his wand and cast a amplification spell on his throat, making his voice louder so that all the students in the lounge could hear his next speech.

"I think everyone should know, right? There is a huge danger in the Hogwarts school castle now! That's right! It's the damned basilisk! The basilisk in the Slytherin chamber!" George said in a low voice. said in a tone of voice.

"It is said! Anyone who sees its eyes directly will die immediately! Even if they only see it indirectly, they will be petrified! Think of Mrs. Norris! And that poor classmate Colin Go!" Just as George stopped, Fred hurriedly added from the side.

Seeing that most of the Gryffindor students were attracted by the words of the two of them and frightened by their success, the Veles twins nodded in satisfaction. Then, they finally picked up the two hemp sacks that had been lying at their feet since just now. The reason why the two of them came back so late tonight was to make these things in a hurry!

"In this regard, for the sake of everyone's safety, Fred and I worked hard all day and night! We finally invented two treasures with special effects that can target Basilisks! They definitely have special effects! We dare to honor Gryffindor Guaranteed!" Said George and shook the big bag in his hand.

"Look! Now these targeted treasures are here! As long as you have them, you will no longer be afraid of the threat of the basilisk! As long as you have them, you can walk boldly in the corridors of the school with peace of mind!"

"That's right! As long as you have them, the basilisk will never be able to take your life away! The terrifying threat and the haze that hangs over Hogwarts will never return!" Fred immediately picked up George's words, the two brothers just sang together and worked hard to promote it.

"Then, what exactly are these two things you invented? What are their functions?" Neville Longbottom, who had been so excited by the two people for a long time, finally couldn't help asking.

awesome! I've been waiting for your words! After hearing what Neville said, George and Fred immediately looked at each other and smiled! They originally considered whether to spend money to buy a prop or ask the familiar Harry and the others to help! It's just that today's time is too rushed, and they don't have time to prepare in advance! Well now! have a look! Immediately, someone rushed to the door to pawn! Neville really deserves to be the best supporting actor of the year!

"This student asked a good question!"

"Come and see! This thing is called: the magic crystal mirror away from the death gaze! As long as you wear it, you will be far away from the death gaze of the terrifying basilisk! Even if you directly see the eyes of the basilisk, you will not die! It only costs ten silver Sickles! How about it? Surprised or not?"

George took out a pair of uniquely shaped flat glasses from his hemp pocket, with a layer of coating with a faint magical color on it, which looked like sunglasses, but the color was slightly different! If it is combined with that long name, it will look very extraordinary!

In fact, George's words are not complete. After wearing these glasses and seeing the basilisk, he will definitely not die, but he will never escape the fate of being petrified! But at least he saved his life, didn't he?

In fact, it is basically a street stall worth less than one pound! Perhaps less than ten shillings a pair in bulk purchases! These are all cheap goods that they entrusted someone to buy from the Muggle world overnight, and then use the owl to send them urgently! Afterwards, the two brothers spent almost all their spare time during the day giving them a cool-looking magic color coating. What is the use of this coating? Ha ha! You are asking too much!

And now, for a pair of glasses that cost less than ten shillings, they were selling them for ten Sickles! You know, the current exchange rate of Gringotts to British pounds is that one Galleon equals about five pounds! But one gold Galleon can be exchanged for seventeen silver Sickles! Then, as long as they sell a pair of glasses, they can earn a huge profit of at least eight silver Sickles! These two guys really deserve to be unscrupulous profiteers!

"Come and see! This baby in my hand is called: Magic Rooster Crowing! It's so small and convenient that you can even put it in your pocket at any time! As long as you input magic power into it, it can make a rooster's crowing! If you look it up, you will know that it is clearly recorded in the book that the basilisk is most afraid of the crowing of the rooster! It can help you drive away the deadly basilisk! It only costs ten silver Sickles each! How is it? Is it unexpected?"

Fred reached into his own pocket and produced a strange little box. Hermione, who grew up in the Muggle world, recognized it at a glance! That thing is actually a simplified version of the pronunciation box! Toys for the little ones! A pound can buy several! The two of them didn't even have time to erase the factory marks and LOGO on it! Hermione almost burst out laughing when she saw it!

And now, instead of playing a certain piece of music, it can repeat the high-pitched loud crowing of a certain rooster over and over again! As for the need to use magic power to drive, it is estimated that the two brothers changed the battery into magic power to generate electricity, right? What an interesting idea! This creative invention alone is worth ten silver Sickles!

Hermione thought about it seriously, these two things might still be very useful, it's really a bit embarrassing for the two of them! Those glasses should really be able to avoid direct death, as evidenced by Mrs. Norris and Colin holding the camera! They all saw the eyes of the basilisk indirectly! It's just that one is through the reflection of stagnant water, and the other is through the camera lens!

For the music box, Hermione just thought it might be possible to drive away the basilisk! She's not so sure! So just think it is possible! After all, there is no example to prove this, she dare not jump to conclusions now! But overall, both things are superb! Hermione felt that these two were the real elite talents in the wizarding world! Thanks to them being able to come up with a solution against the basilisk so quickly!

"If you buy both at the same time! There is a discount! You can buy each separately for ten silver Sickles! No bargaining! And if you buy at the same time..."

"If you buy two at the same time, you only need one Galleon! Isn't it worth it? What are you waiting for now?"

The two twin brothers spoke clearly on stage, bluffing the student audience. After a while of silence, the Gryffindors finally came to their senses and began to swarm up, asking for money to buy.

From their point of view, these things all sound reasonable, and they seem to be quite reliable! Then buy it first! After all, this is related to his own life! Be quick! Slow hands! Grab one for yourself! Anyway, it's only the price of two snacks, and it's not very expensive!

"Give me! Give me! I want a pair of glasses!" A clever and cute first-year girl rushed to the front, took out ten silver Sickles from her pocket, and quickly snatched them from George. A pair of flat glasses enchanted with tints.

"Give it to me! I want it too! I want both! Here! Here's the money! This is a Galleon!" A fat boy squeezed hard, holding a golden Galleon in his chubby hand ! Immediately took away two things!

"Give it to me! Give it to me! I want it too! I'll just buy that box!"

"No! You go away! What a squeeze! I came first! I want both!"

"Hey! Don't squeeze! I can't breathe!"

"Why? What are you talking about? I don't want to mess with you! You will turn my face against me again!"

 …

"Bastard! How dare you touch my mother's ass while you're messing around? Are you looking for death!"

"I, I didn't mean it! You stepped on my foot first! I just wanted to push... ah!!!" Neville, who was glared at by the girl in front, hurriedly prepared to explain. He really didn't mean it just now. ! She stepped on his foot first! However, that hot-tempered senior girl didn't have time to listen to his explanation right now, so she just punched him in the eye socket!

...

"Okay! Okay! Please line up and come one by one! We have prepared a lot! Guaranteed everyone has a share! Ouch! Who are you? Don't grab it! Stop! You haven't paid yet! Where are you going? !Legs freeze to death!"

The Weasley twins, George and Fred, looked at each other proudly, and began to maintain order. By the way, they caught a cunning guy who wanted to fish in troubled waters, and regained the stolen goods! Want to grab something without giving money? Now these brats are really against the sky!

George and Fred had invested all their income from selling rings into this batch of goods. They were a little apprehensive before, fearing that this batch of goods would fall into their hands, and the bamboo basket would be empty in the end! But judging from the current situation, not only do they not need to worry at all, but they will soon make a fortune again! Might need restocking?

While selling the products, the two brothers thought: Look at the current momentum, if they go to the other three academies to sell for a round tomorrow, at least they can earn hundreds of Galleons, right? Looks like I'm going to get rich! They seemed to see countless Jin Gallons waving desperately at them!

After thinking about it for a while, Harry, who was standing behind the crowd, took out a Gallon and walked over to line up. At the same time, Hermione also walked over, and she also planned to buy a pair of plain glasses! As for that pronunciation box? She thinks it's okay! Don't spend that wronged money!

"Ron! Aren't you going to buy something?" Harry came back soon, playing with the pronunciation box and glasses in his hand. He already wears myopia glasses, and this magical glasses away from the death stare made him a little difficult. ! He didn't know how to wear it, he couldn't wear two glasses together, right? That would be too silly!

"Yeah, Ron! Why don't you buy one? These glasses are really useful! Before the professors solve the basilisk, you might be able to rely on them to save your life at some point!" Hermione put away her Glasses, this kind of life-saving thing is not expensive anyway, you can never go wrong with buying one!

But she doesn't plan to wear it now, the Gryffindor lounge is still very safe! As for the music box... She always thought it was a bit stupid to carry a pronunciation box that made a rooster crow, and it seemed unreliable! Can a recorded rooster crow as effectively as a live rooster? This is very doubtful! Pending verification! So she didn't plan to buy that thing.

"Ah? No! I don't have that much money! And George and Fred will definitely not give it to me for nothing! I'd better not give it up..." He only had less than five silver Sickles in his pocket ! Ever since he was rejected and ridiculed when he asked for the ring last time, Ron believed that the twin brothers would definitely not give him the things this time, so he didn't dare to go up to make people hate him.

"Oh? Do you think so? My dear brother Ron! We are not the cheapskates you imagined!" George and Fred had time to pack up after everyone had bought Things came over, but just heard Ron's words!

"That's right! Even if you don't ask, we'll give you a pair of glasses! Now, here you are! Take it well!" Fred stuffed a pair of glasses into Ron's jacket pocket.

"And, if Ron, you are accidentally petrified, we will definitely work together to bring you home! What do you think? Fred?" George was carrying a heavy purse. Fendo has already made them a fortune, and there will be three major academies after dawn tomorrow! That's another big fight! They need to rest early tonight to recharge their batteries!

"Yes! I think we still lack a decorative statue in our house! At Christmas, we can hang those decorative magical lights around his neck! Or just paint his nose as a clown?" Fred immediately understood George's idea, and they could play with this idiot brother a little bit.

"Ha! That's a really good idea! Maybe we can put a coat of gold paint on him?"

 …

"Look! Look! They've always been like this!!" Ron looked angrily at the departing twins!

"Come on! Ron! At least they gave you a pair of life-saving glasses for free! Didn't they?" Hermione smiled. She felt that the two twin brothers still cared about their little brother Ron!

After all, they gave him a pair of life-saving glasses! Instead of that flashy, unreliable pronunciation box! Their behavior is just a joke about the brotherhood of the twins! After all, these two twins have always looked like this!

Anyway, Hermione thinks this kind of scene is very good, it is full of warmth among family members! It's just that this dull Ron didn't feel it! She, Hermione, was the only daughter in the family, and she never had the chance to experience this unique friendship between brothers and sisters!

After packing up her textbooks, Hermione was going back to the girls' dormitory to rest first! Because a few days ago, when she visited Annie, little Annie inadvertently taught her a method of using meditation to improve magic power, as well as some basic applications of arcane spell models and magic structure analysis!

So, she decided to go back early, lie down on the bed, enter the sea of ​​meditation, and continue to study and practice these interesting ways of using magic power. These are rare knowledge that are not available in the library of Hogwarts school, or even in the entire wizarding world. Woolen cloth!

"Good night! Harry! And you! Ron! See you tomorrow!" After finishing speaking, Hermione walked straight up from the entrance of the girls' dormitory.

"Harry! Let's go back to the dormitory and go to bed!" After a while, Ron saw that many people had left, and there were not many people left in the common room.

"Have you finished your homework?" Harry knew that Ron would never have less homework than himself! He still wants to go to bed so early?

Although Ron was on sick leave because of the mandrake, the professors at Hogwarts don't recognize sick leave! Want to take sick leave? Can! For the right reasons! However, after the break, you must make up for the missing homework in full! And now, because Fred and George have been selling the goods for a long time, and they have been arguing and delaying a lot of time, Ron doesn't seem to have done much homework, right? It was only then that Harry felt very strange, he didn't finish his homework, so why sleep?

"Uh...at least half of it is left!" Looking at so many homework, Ron scratched his head a little bit.

"Then why don't you hurry up and write it! I'm still eight pages away from copying the potion formula!" Harry almost laughed angrily! It’s okay if you’re lazy and don’t want to write! Now you still want to drag me into the water to put you on your back? If I don't finish writing tonight, how can that dark wizard, Snape in Potions class, spare me lightly?
