Chapter 102 102. Christmas Gifts Daily Prophet
After breakfast, Scott sat cross-legged under the Christmas tree and began unwrapping this year's presents.
First of all, the most conspicuous wooden box. Scott picked up the greeting card pinned to the box and opened it. It was prepared by Michael and Emilia.
Opening the box with anticipation, Scott got a box of tattered books and manuscripts.
"..."
He casually picked up an old piece of parchment and looked at it, and found that it was actually a recipe written on it.
"It's a notebook of a medieval alchemist."
Michael stood behind him and said.
"I found these books and documents on purpose, and they all seem to be related to occultism. As for whether you can find something useful, it depends on you."
"Thank you."
Scott put the box aside and began unpacking the other presents.
Soon, more and more books began to pile up around him.
"..."
Scott doesn't understand why so many people send him books.
Most of these were sent by Ravenclaw students.
What kind of impression did he make on those people...
Ravenclaw's head of nerds?
Fortunately, a few good friends are not so boring.
Roger gave him a set of England Quidditch League All-Star toy figures. These little figures can walk and talk, and even fly on a small broom.
This is very useful for his research on transfiguration.
Eddie gave him what was said to be "the trendiest London teenage outfit", complete with clothes, shoes and jewellery.
Scott unfolded it to take a look, and tossed the overly punk exaggerated costume aside.
The Weasley twins delivered only one envelope.
Scott shook the envelope and opened it to find a piece of handwritten cardboard.
It says—[Weasley Joke Shop Lifetime VIP (20% off)].
"..."
Scott looked at the piece of cardboard and couldn't help admiring how fucking talented Fred and George were.
Their joke shop is giving out membership cards before it even has a shadow!
He took another note from the envelope and unfolded it.
[Dear Scott.
We were still at school at Christmas and Mom and Dad went to visit Bill in Egypt.
Because our money is a bit tight, we decided to overdraw the future and prepare a big gift for you, please remember to keep it well.
It will definitely be useful in the future.
Fred, George. ]
...Trust me.
Scott thought.
Don't think I don't know you've made a lot of money selling my Transfiguration notes.
But he also knew that those two guys might want to save money to use as funds to open a store.
He shook his head and continued to unwrap the presents.
Harry and his two friends also gave him presents.
Harry sent a box of Honeydukes candy that was exactly the same as Scott's gift to him--there was a perfunctory taste in each other.
Ron sent a card saying he was grateful for Scott's help with his sister.
It was worth less than Fred and George's gift.
However, Scott certainly knows that he is much poorer than his two twin brothers, and he is sensible enough to write a greeting card to thank him, and he cannot demand more.
Hermione's gift was an oral care kit and a letter thanking Scott for answering her Transfiguration questions.
Then came Cedric's gift.
Thanks to a father who works in the Department of Magical Creatures Regulation and Control of the Ministry of Magic, he sent a box of small crystal vials, each of which contained hair or nails that fell off a magical animal. body tissue.
Scott was pleased with the gift.
Luna sent a large empty glass bottle, which she said contained a molefly she had caught.
She felt that keeping this bottle with her would scare away other harassing horseflies and keep people's minds from being disturbed.
Scott thought, let it be.
He found out that Mrs. Weasley, Ginny, Bill, and Percy had all sent things too.
Mrs. Weasley and Ginny thanked him for his help in that matter, and their presents were a scarf and a small box of taffy.
Bill sent some of his handwritten research, and Percy sent him a greeting card.
Has he reached the Weasley family illustrated book?
Scott thought.
Well, it's just Mr. Weasley and Charlie who didn't meet each other.
Finally, there are gifts from the professors, all of which are notes.
Professor McGonagall gave him a Transfiguration Notebook and a book list, and Professor Flitwick gave him an Advanced Charms Notebook.
And the presents he gave these two professors were wizard hats bought at Fengya Wizard Clothing.
In addition to the two professors, he also sent Dumbledore a candy spree - similar to the one he gave Harry.
Dumbledore's return gift was a Transfiguration notebook from his own student days.
Of course, it's a copy.
Scott flipped through it casually and put it aside first.
He hadn't found Milton's gift yet.
However, when he opened all the presents, he still didn't find Milton's present.
This surprised him a little.
Thinking of his father's abnormal behavior the day before, Scott couldn't help but worry about him.
Scott got up and walked across the living room and called Roger and Eddie.
As expected, they did not receive a gift from Milton either.
After talking on the phone, all three of them began to worry.
Unfortunately, none of them knew exactly where the Milton family lived.
But fortunately, Scott sent Shay to give Milton a gift the night before, and Shay had already returned home in the morning, so it shouldn't be a big problem to come to Milton.
Thinking of this, Scott felt relieved, and began to slowly organize his presents and move some things upstairs to his room.
At the same time, he woke Shay, who was sleeping, and told him to go to Diagon Alley to buy himself a copy of the Daily Prophet.
Shay pecked Scott angrily, and reluctantly grabbed the money and flew away.
At noon, it flew home with today's "Daily Prophet".
But it was obviously very dissatisfied, and Scott handed it a plate full of beef, so it was able to get the newspaper to read quietly.
However, Scott's face darkened the moment he unfolded the newspaper.
I saw the headline on the front page written in huge black letters - "Unsupervised Girl Unruly Love - Obsessed with Muggle-born Boy, Genius Pure-blood Girl Kills Kent".
Below the caption are three photographs of Travers, Jacob, and Scott.
The background of these photos is Hogwarts. It is unknown who secretly took the photos and later sold them to reporters.
[This newspaper's special correspondent Rita Skeeter reports.
The day before Christmas, the Muggles of Maidstone, a Muggle town in Kent, discovered...
According to a Ministry of Magic investigation, the deceased was...
…After the Ministry of Magic received the notice, it immediately took an extremely correct course of action under the leadership of Minister Fudge, and calmed down in one night...

... Later, she fell in love with Scott Trollope, a 14-year-old Ravenclaw genius boy who was three years older than her... It is reported that Trollope is also a boy from a Muggle family...
According to Morgan Avery, a female classmate in Travert's ward, the girl left the hospital privately to go on a tryst with the boy she loved...
