Chapter 352 352. Complete Opinion Discovery
Listening to the Weasley twins and Eddie laughing for a while, Scott said to Eddie; "We can make a promotional film for Ravenclaw College first."
"Good idea!" Eddie's eyes lit up.
Fred and George were unhappy when they heard it. Although they didn't understand what the promotional video was, it didn't stop them from protesting.
Fred asked aloud, "Why Ravenclaw?"
"Why not make the promotional video of Gryffindor College first?" George also asked.
Scott lowered his head, the busy editing in his hands kept moving, and he replied calmly, "Because I'm a Ravenclaw."
"It's not fair!" Fred and George protested loudly.
Scott nodded, "It's not fair, but it's normal to be unfair."
"Oh, Fred, listen to what he has to say!"
"I hear you, George, he's talking so irritatingly!"
"Seriously, why doesn't he make a Hogwarts promotional film?"
"Too narrow! This is narrow thinking! This is school discrimination!"
Fred and George sang together and said some weird words.
"Making a promotional video for Hogwarts?" Scott said with a smile, "Of course, you two are in charge of the Slytherin house?"
"No need." Fred immediately refused, "We don't know those guys in Slytherin very well."
George also said: "It's good to rank Gryffindor's promotional film second. Making Ravenclaw's promotional film should be regarded as gaining experience."
Scott smiled, stopped what he was doing, and took out a roll of parchment from the shapeshifting lizard pouch and handed it to George.
"This is the rune circuit obtained from cracking the panoramic telescope." He said, "Try it too and see if you can make something interesting."
He didn't directly give the twins the set of improved rune circuits that he made [magic mirror].
According to common sense in the magic world, this kind of self-improved knowledge can generally only be traded at equal value, and cannot be gifted.
Of course, Fred and George also knew this kind of common sense. Although they had joked before, they were not even ashamed to accept the original rune circuit that Scott handed them.
Seeing the hesitation on their faces, Scott threw the parchment roll in front of them.
"As long as you don't make telescopes or anything like that, you should know the rules," he said.
Although they cracked the magic text circuit in the panoramic telescope, they couldn't directly grab other people's business.
It would be fine if they just use this set of magic text circuits to make some other products, but if they directly counterfeit the panoramic telescope, they will face a lot of trouble.
George was still hesitating, but Fred simply picked up the roll of parchment that recorded the rune circuit and unfolded it.
He smiled and said, "Of course, we know the rules."
George also said: "Even though we have cracked many Joko Joke Shop products, we have never copied them."
After saying this, he said to Fred: "This is the knowledge Scott deciphered, we need to exchange the same knowledge."
Fred nodded in agreement, "Just make up your mind."
"No need." Scott shook his head, "Bill has shared a lot of valuable knowledge with me."
"Bill is Bill, we are us." George dug out an old-looking notebook from an old desk.
Fred glanced at the notebook and said to Scott, "Here's our record of cracking Zoko's Joke Shop product, and it should be of interest to you."
George flipped through his notebook and made a quick decision.
"That's it?" he said to Fred.
"Okay." Fred nodded.
George handed the notebook directly to Scott.
"Although the value may not be as good as the set of rune circuits you cracked, there are many interesting ideas and tricks in it," he said.
His hands for those notebooks were held up for a while, but Scott had no choice but to take them.
George looked relieved and began to study the parchment scroll with Fred.
"Maybe you can make a magic camera." Eddie suggested to the two, "After all, the panoramic telescope is not a product specially designed for shooting."
Fred and George looked interested.
Eddie explained to them the function of the Muggle camera and drew a schematic diagram.
The three of them murmured together.
Scott withdrew his gaze and continued to indulge in video editing.
The images extracted from the seven panoramic telescopes take a long time and have different angles. For Scott, who has little experience, the workload of editing is still very large.
Although he doesn't have such high demands on himself, and he doesn't plan to edit a blockbuster film, he still needs to integrate images from different perspectives so that people can see what happened and try to sort out the events as clearly as possible.
By the time the curfew came, Scott had only completed a small half.
Fred and George were going to stay up all night in the studio to study the set of rune circuits, and Scott and Eddie returned to the dormitory together.
After washing up, he sat on the bed and continued editing with the [Magic Mirror].
The [Magic Mirror] in his hand attracted the attention of Roger and Milton.
At this time, Eddie couldn't wait to tell what they had done with a bit of complacency.
Roger had lived in the Muggle world since he was a child, and Milton, who had lived in London for a while, quickly understood what Eddie said.
"So, you took a picture of Dumbledore leading the Aurors to fight the Witch and the Death Eaters?" Roger moved to Scott's side and looked at the picture on the [Magic Mirror] in his hand.
"Oh, is this the strength of Dumbledore?" He couldn't help but marvel, "It's really unimaginable that a wizard's spell can have such power."
"Dumbledore is not an ordinary wizard." Milton couldn't help but squeezed curiously to Roger's side to look at the constantly switching screens.
"Milton, choose some pieces of music that represent the style of Ravenclaw House from your previous compositions."
Scott spoke while operating.
"I'm going to make a promotional video for Ravenclaw College after I finish this thing."
Milton was a little confused when he heard that, but there was no need for Scott to speak next, Eddie had already talked about the plan to make a college promotional video.
"It's a pity that I have lost my talent for composing music." Milton said with some frustration, "Otherwise I could compose and perform for the promotional video of Ravenclaw College."
"Your previous works are enough. We have all heard them, and they are all very good." Roger said to him.
"Don't worry about me." Milton smiled. "I'm glad they can be used."
After speaking, he walked to his bookshelf and took out a folder that was stuffed to the brim.
"Maybe I need some of your opinions." He flipped through the pages of parchment in the folder that recorded the staves.
"Don't worry, you can pick out some as a backup." Scott said, "When the time comes, we will select the songs based on the materials we have shot."
Eddie said: "We can think about it first, what kind of content will be better to shoot at that time, and what kind of content can better show the style of Ravenclaw College?"
Both Roger and Milton were interested in this topic, so they discussed it with him.
Scott tried to speed up the motion in his hands as much as possible, and it was not until around 2:00 in the morning that he finally completed the preliminary cut.
The other three didn't sleep either. Roger and Milton had learned the details of what happened in Little Hangleton Village by watching Scott's clips from time to time.
"As much as you think," Roger said, "you probably won't be allowed to sell this video for money."
Scott shrugged his shoulders. Except for Eddie, he and the Weasley twins didn't do this for making money. They were more for satisfying their own curiosity.
After lunch at noon the next day, Scott brought the [Magic Mirror] to Professor Trevor's office.
"What's the matter, Scott." Professor Flitwick was grading students' papers at this time.
Speaking of which, the professors at Hogwarts are very hardworking.
Professors are often responsible for teaching seven grades of a subject alone, which leads them to attend classes almost all day long, and even need to correct students' homework during breaks.
"I want to show you something."
Scott went to Professor Flitwick's desk and put the [Magic Mirror] in front of him.
"This is?" Professor Flitwick looked at the square mirror curiously.
Scott took out his wand and tapped on the mirror, and a picture appeared on the mirror immediately.
"Oh, this is..."
Professor Flitwick watched the screen play with great interest at first, and when the green-robed Medea appeared, his voice immediately became shrill.
"Could it be that this is Gaunt's old house? Why do you have such a picture?" He asked Scott in surprise.
Scott briefly explained the source of these images.
Professor Flitwick gave him a surprised look, "I didn't expect..."
He didn't expect Scott and his students to do such an operation.
At this moment, the image in the mirror switched to the perspective of the interior of Gaunt's old house.
Medea led several men in green robes into the broken house, took out a golden cup and put it on the ground.
Afterwards, a magical ceremony that had obviously been arranged long ago was activated, and the screen was filled with dazzling bloody light.
"Hufflepuff's golden cup?" Professor Flitwick stared closely at the golden cup in the picture.
"You-Know-Who always makes Horcruxes out of iconic magical items," Scott said.
"indeed."
Professor Flitwick obviously thought of Ravenclaw's diadem, which was also made into a Horcrux by Voldemort.
"He really only does meaningless destruction!" the professor said angrily.
The uncomfortable red light flickered in the mirror, and the camera switched again.
This time it was the picture of the Riddle Mansion.
With the appearance of the two Death Eaters, Professor Flitwick's eyes widened again.
"This is……"
He was obviously also eyeing that weird "baby".
It's just that due to the lack of light in the picture, the "baby" never showed his true face.
Suddenly, the camera cuts back to Gaunt's old house again, the Aurors appear, and the battle begins.
In the next period of time, Dumbledore also began to appear on stage, and the images in the mirror switched back and forth from different perspectives, fully showing the scuffle scene that took place in Little Hangleton Village that night.
It was not until the Death Eaters stole the gold cup, Medea retreated under Dumbledore's attack, and the Aurors arrested the downed Death Eater and the green man, that the picture finally freezes.
"I didn't expect Dumbledore's magic to reach such a level." Professor Flitwick said.
As expected of the Charms professor, the first thing he noticed was Dumbledore's spell.
He said with emotion: "Speaking of which, although I have worked with him for many years, I have not seen him make a move with my own eyes."
"You just said..." He remembered Scott's words just now, and looked up at him, "Your whimsical idea...do you want to make money from this video?"
Having said that, he took a few sips from the teacup on the table, and it took him a while to calm down.
Scott said honestly, "This is a huge business opportunity. Because of Medea's previous interview, everyone is very curious about what happened that day."
Professor Flitwick nodded, "Of course, no one is not curious about what happened the night before yesterday."
Scott smiled, "What I didn't expect is that until now, there are still no newspapers reporting this incident."
"So you came to me."
Professor Flitwick laughed too.
"If you want to ask my opinion, then I will say to you, you better not sell this video, or even let too many people know about your actions."
At this point, he asked Scott, "Do you know why?"
Scott looked down at [the mirror] and said, "It's a complicated thing, it involves a lot of people, and publishing the repercussions might cause some confusion."
"No, that's not the main reason."
Professor Flitwick said he looked at Scott and sighed.
"If this video is spread, you will be feared."
he explained.
"Because you announced a secret event that happened in the dark, without even Lady Slytherin and Dumbledore being aware of it, people will worry that you will expose their privacy in this way."
Scott froze for a moment, he didn't expect Professor Flitwick to look at this matter from such a perspective.
But Professor Flitwick's words are very reasonable.
If this video is spread, Scott and the others will become the most unpopular people in the wizarding world, just like those entertainment reporters in the Muggle world who are good at secretly photographing stars.
Professor Flitwick added: "It seems that you are no longer ready to sell this film."
Scott nodded.
Indeed, although he hadn't thought of the layer Professor Flitwick was talking about, he certainly wasn't prepared to let the image spread.
For those who are interested, it is not difficult to find someone who sells images. Scott is trying to stay away from Medea's "sight" now, so there is no need to jump in front of her like this.
So Scott told Professor Flitwick about the plan to make a promotional film for Ravenclaw College.
This project, of course, has the strong support of Professor Flitwick.
"That's a good idea." He jumped off the chair, "Come to me if you need help."
While speaking, he held the [Magic Mirror] in his hand, motioned for Scott to follow behind him, and the two walked out of the office.
Scott understood that this was probably to take him to the headmaster's office to find Dumbledore.
The two walked through several winding corridors, and Professor Flitwick knocked on a hidden door.
The door opened quickly, and Dumbledore's voice came from inside, "Please come in."
Professor Flitwick opened the door and walked in, Scott following behind him.
The old principal sitting behind the desk smiled and said, "Good afternoon, Felius, oh, and Scott."
Professor Flitwick returned the [Magic Mirror] to Scott, walked to the desk by himself, climbed onto the stool nimbly and sat down.
"Scott, show Albus yourself," he said to Scott.
Scott nodded, walked to the desk, put the [Magic Mirror] in front of Dumbledore, and started to play the edited video again.
On the mirror, a "silent movie" began.
Dumbledore looked down at the image played on the mirror.
He was not as surprised as Professor Flitwick, but watched till the end with a smile on his face.
"I didn't expect to see this battle in this way, so I don't look too old." He said cheerfully.
After finishing speaking, he looked up at Scott, "I have to thank you, Scott, in this way I discovered some details that I didn't notice."
He lowered his head again, squinted his eyes for a while, and unexpectedly learned how to use the [Magic Mirror] without a teacher.
He stretched out a slender finger and slid on the mirror, causing the image to continuously recede until it reached the scene before the two Death Eaters hiding in Riddle's mansion left, and then re-freeze.
"You may not know one thing." He pointed at the house that was only faintly visible in the dark picture, "This is the Riddle mansion, and it is also the home of Voldemort's father, Tom Riddle."
"Oh!" Professor Flitwick exclaimed, "V... You-Know-Who's father? According to Ms. Slytherin, a Muggle?"
"That's right." Dumbledore said softly, "It was because of the close distance between the two families that Voldemort's mother, Melot Gaunt, fell in love with Tom Riddle, captured him with a love potion, and the two eloped together. "
Professor Flitwick frowned tightly when he heard this, obviously disgusted with this kind of behavior of using love potion to get love.
Dumbledore pointed again to the "baby" held in the arms of the Death Eaters.
"I suspect that this is Voldemort." He said, "Have you seen that although he is no longer a remnant soul, he is still very weak, otherwise, he would not be hiding here so carefully."
It is not difficult to think of this answer, after all, Harry once told Dumbledore about his dream.
"Oh!" Professor Flitwick exclaimed again, "Merlin, his body... is in a disabled state?"
Dumbledore said: "It seems that his current strength is not enough to fully resurrect him, and he still needs to find opportunities..."
"That cup, Hufflepuff's cup!" said Professor Flitwick. "Is that one of his Horcruxes? When he gets that Horcrux back, will it bring him anything?"
Dumbledore shook his head, "I suspect that Horcrux is fake, Ms. Slytherin will not give Voldemort a chance."
He made the same judgment as Scott.
Next, Dumbledore slid his finger on the mirror again, deliberately repeating several small details.
He returned the [magic mirror] to Scott, "It's an interesting alchemy product, isn't it, and it's amazing to do this when Hogwarts doesn't offer alchemy courses."
"Thank you." Scott said softly.
He knew that he only used the simplest method to make [magic mirror]. Strictly speaking, it cannot be called alchemy, but it can only be said to be the successful use of the rune circuit.
And, with his frequent trips to the Room of Requirement, he couldn't believe that the old headmaster didn't have a rough idea of what he had been taught by the Ravenclaw portrait.
"Then can you tell me about it? I'm curious how you got these images." Dumbledore asked Scott with great interest.
Scott glanced at the portraits on the wall next to him, and had to explain his approach again.
Dumbledore showed a suddenly realized expression after listening.
"Panoramic telescope? I know that little toy," he said with a smile. "Everyone uses it as a special telescope. Only you have discovered a new use."
Scott smiled "shyly" again.
At this moment, Professor Flitwick spoke his mind.
He hoped that this matter could be kept secret, and he didn't want Scott and his students to get into a sad situation because of this matter.
Dumbledore, of course, had no objection to that.
He seemed to have something to say to Professor Flitwick, so Scott left the principal's office alone.
After leaving the principal's office, Scott came to the stairs on the eighth floor and saw the Weasley twins and Eddie waiting there.
"How about it, Scott, what did Professor Flitwick say?" Eddie asked him curiously after seeing Scott.
"Professor Flitwick suggested that we keep this matter a secret." Scott whispered Professor Flitwick's concerns about them.
Eddie nodded again and again, "So you still think this way? It seems that we should really keep this matter a secret."
Fred and George were standing with their backs against the wall, nodding their heads as if to echo Eddie's words, but Scott noticed that the two guys were dozing off.
"Did those two guys stay up last night?" he asked Eddie in a low voice.
Eddie shrugged. "Obviously."
"Oh..." George suddenly half-opened his eyes.
He shook his head to clear himself up a little.
"Professor Flitwick is right," he said. "We can't become persona non grata like Rita Skeeter..."
"We did not sleep last night, and the group of rune circuits researched some..."
At this moment, Fred also spoke, and he and George began to say two different things at the same time.
"I think you two might as well skip class and go to sleep." Scott said with a smile, "What's your class in the afternoon?"
"Oh……"
"Yes……"
It took Fred and George a while to remember.
"It's Potions class."
"..."
Scott looked at the two sympathetically.
With their current muddled state, they might blow up the cauldron in Potions class.
"Oh, you two just wait for points to be deducted." Eddie smiled gloatingly, "But it's okay, anyway, Gryffindor has no house points to deduct."
(End of this chapter)
Listening to the Weasley twins and Eddie laughing for a while, Scott said to Eddie; "We can make a promotional film for Ravenclaw College first."
"Good idea!" Eddie's eyes lit up.
Fred and George were unhappy when they heard it. Although they didn't understand what the promotional video was, it didn't stop them from protesting.
Fred asked aloud, "Why Ravenclaw?"
"Why not make the promotional video of Gryffindor College first?" George also asked.
Scott lowered his head, the busy editing in his hands kept moving, and he replied calmly, "Because I'm a Ravenclaw."
"It's not fair!" Fred and George protested loudly.
Scott nodded, "It's not fair, but it's normal to be unfair."
"Oh, Fred, listen to what he has to say!"
"I hear you, George, he's talking so irritatingly!"
"Seriously, why doesn't he make a Hogwarts promotional film?"
"Too narrow! This is narrow thinking! This is school discrimination!"
Fred and George sang together and said some weird words.
"Making a promotional video for Hogwarts?" Scott said with a smile, "Of course, you two are in charge of the Slytherin house?"
"No need." Fred immediately refused, "We don't know those guys in Slytherin very well."
George also said: "It's good to rank Gryffindor's promotional film second. Making Ravenclaw's promotional film should be regarded as gaining experience."
Scott smiled, stopped what he was doing, and took out a roll of parchment from the shapeshifting lizard pouch and handed it to George.
"This is the rune circuit obtained from cracking the panoramic telescope." He said, "Try it too and see if you can make something interesting."
He didn't directly give the twins the set of improved rune circuits that he made [magic mirror].
According to common sense in the magic world, this kind of self-improved knowledge can generally only be traded at equal value, and cannot be gifted.
Of course, Fred and George also knew this kind of common sense. Although they had joked before, they were not even ashamed to accept the original rune circuit that Scott handed them.
Seeing the hesitation on their faces, Scott threw the parchment roll in front of them.
"As long as you don't make telescopes or anything like that, you should know the rules," he said.
Although they cracked the magic text circuit in the panoramic telescope, they couldn't directly grab other people's business.
It would be fine if they just use this set of magic text circuits to make some other products, but if they directly counterfeit the panoramic telescope, they will face a lot of trouble.
George was still hesitating, but Fred simply picked up the roll of parchment that recorded the rune circuit and unfolded it.
He smiled and said, "Of course, we know the rules."
George also said: "Even though we have cracked many Joko Joke Shop products, we have never copied them."
After saying this, he said to Fred: "This is the knowledge Scott deciphered, we need to exchange the same knowledge."
Fred nodded in agreement, "Just make up your mind."
"No need." Scott shook his head, "Bill has shared a lot of valuable knowledge with me."
"Bill is Bill, we are us." George dug out an old-looking notebook from an old desk.
Fred glanced at the notebook and said to Scott, "Here's our record of cracking Zoko's Joke Shop product, and it should be of interest to you."
George flipped through his notebook and made a quick decision.
"That's it?" he said to Fred.
"Okay." Fred nodded.
George handed the notebook directly to Scott.
"Although the value may not be as good as the set of rune circuits you cracked, there are many interesting ideas and tricks in it," he said.
His hands for those notebooks were held up for a while, but Scott had no choice but to take them.
George looked relieved and began to study the parchment scroll with Fred.
"Maybe you can make a magic camera." Eddie suggested to the two, "After all, the panoramic telescope is not a product specially designed for shooting."
Fred and George looked interested.
Eddie explained to them the function of the Muggle camera and drew a schematic diagram.
The three of them murmured together.
Scott withdrew his gaze and continued to indulge in video editing.

By the time the curfew came, Scott had only completed a small half.
Fred and George were going to stay up all night in the studio to study the set of rune circuits, and Scott and Eddie returned to the dormitory together.
After washing up, he sat on the bed and continued editing with the [Magic Mirror].
The [Magic Mirror] in his hand attracted the attention of Roger and Milton.
At this time, Eddie couldn't wait to tell what they had done with a bit of complacency.
Roger had lived in the Muggle world since he was a child, and Milton, who had lived in London for a while, quickly understood what Eddie said.
"So, you took a picture of Dumbledore leading the Aurors to fight the Witch and the Death Eaters?" Roger moved to Scott's side and looked at the picture on the [Magic Mirror] in his hand.
"Oh, is this the strength of Dumbledore?" He couldn't help but marvel, "It's really unimaginable that a wizard's spell can have such power."
"Dumbledore is not an ordinary wizard." Milton couldn't help but squeezed curiously to Roger's side to look at the constantly switching screens.
"Milton, choose some pieces of music that represent the style of Ravenclaw House from your previous compositions."
Scott spoke while operating.
"I'm going to make a promotional video for Ravenclaw College after I finish this thing."
Milton was a little confused when he heard that, but there was no need for Scott to speak next, Eddie had already talked about the plan to make a college promotional video.
"It's a pity that I have lost my talent for composing music." Milton said with some frustration, "Otherwise I could compose and perform for the promotional video of Ravenclaw College."
"Your previous works are enough. We have all heard them, and they are all very good." Roger said to him.
"Don't worry about me." Milton smiled. "I'm glad they can be used."

He didn't expect Scott and his students to do such an operation.
At this moment, the image in the mirror switched to the perspective of the interior of Gaunt's old house.
Medea led several men in green robes into the broken house, took out a golden cup and put it on the ground.
Afterwards, a magical ceremony that had obviously been arranged long ago was activated, and the screen was filled with dazzling bloody light.
"Hufflepuff's golden cup?" Professor Flitwick stared closely at the golden cup in the picture.
"You-Know-Who always makes Horcruxes out of iconic magical items," Scott said.
"indeed."
Professor Flitwick obviously thought of Ravenclaw's diadem, which was also made into a Horcrux by Voldemort.
"He really only does meaningless destruction!" the professor said angrily.
The uncomfortable red light flickered in the mirror, and the camera switched again.
This time it was the picture of the Riddle Mansion.
With the appearance of the two Death Eaters, Professor Flitwick's eyes widened again.
"This is……"
He was obviously also eyeing that weird "baby".
It's just that due to the lack of light in the picture, the "baby" never showed his true face.
Suddenly, the camera cuts back to Gaunt's old house again, the Aurors appear, and the battle begins.
In the next period of time, Dumbledore also began to appear on stage, and the images in the mirror switched back and forth from different perspectives, fully showing the scuffle scene that took place in Little Hangleton Village that night.

Professor Flitwick laughed too.

Professor Flitwick opened the door and walked in, Scott following behind him.

"Scott, show Albus yourself," he said to Scott.
Scott nodded, walked to the desk, put the [Magic Mirror] in front of Dumbledore, and started to play the edited video again.
On the mirror, a "silent movie" began.
Dumbledore looked down at the image played on the mirror.
He was not as surprised as Professor Flitwick, but watched till the end with a smile on his face.
"I didn't expect to see this battle in this way, so I don't look too old." He said cheerfully.
After finishing speaking, he looked up at Scott, "I have to thank you, Scott, in this way I discovered some details that I didn't notice."
He lowered his head again, squinted his eyes for a while, and unexpectedly learned how to use the [Magic Mirror] without a teacher.
He stretched out a slender finger and slid on the mirror, causing the image to continuously recede until it reached the scene before the two Death Eaters hiding in Riddle's mansion left, and then re-freeze.
"You may not know one thing." He pointed at the house that was only faintly visible in the dark picture, "This is the Riddle mansion, and it is also the home of Voldemort's father, Tom Riddle."
"Oh!" Professor Flitwick exclaimed, "V... You-Know-Who's father? According to Ms. Slytherin, a Muggle?"
"That's right." Dumbledore said softly, "It was because of the close distance between the two families that Voldemort's mother, Melot Gaunt, fell in love with Tom Riddle, captured him with a love potion, and the two eloped together. "
Professor Flitwick frowned tightly when he heard this, obviously disgusted with this kind of behavior of using love potion to get love.
Dumbledore pointed again to the "baby" held in the arms of the Death Eaters.
"I suspect that this is Voldemort." He said, "Have you seen that although he is no longer a remnant soul, he is still very weak, otherwise, he would not be hiding here so carefully."
It is not difficult to think of this answer, after all, Harry once told Dumbledore about his dream.
"Oh!" Professor Flitwick exclaimed again, "Merlin, his body... is in a disabled state?"
Dumbledore said: "It seems that his current strength is not enough to fully resurrect him, and he still needs to find opportunities..."
"That cup, Hufflepuff's cup!" said Professor Flitwick. "Is that one of his Horcruxes? When he gets that Horcrux back, will it bring him anything?"
Dumbledore shook his head, "I suspect that Horcrux is fake, Ms. Slytherin will not give Voldemort a chance."
He made the same judgment as Scott.
Next, Dumbledore slid his finger on the mirror again, deliberately repeating several small details.
He returned the [magic mirror] to Scott, "It's an interesting alchemy product, isn't it, and it's amazing to do this when Hogwarts doesn't offer alchemy courses."
"Thank you." Scott said softly.
He knew that he only used the simplest method to make [magic mirror]. Strictly speaking, it cannot be called alchemy, but it can only be said to be the successful use of the rune circuit.
And, with his frequent trips to the Room of Requirement, he couldn't believe that the old headmaster didn't have a rough idea of what he had been taught by the Ravenclaw portrait.
"Then can you tell me about it? I'm curious how you got these images." Dumbledore asked Scott with great interest.
Scott glanced at the portraits on the wall next to him, and had to explain his approach again.
Dumbledore showed a suddenly realized expression after listening.
"Panoramic telescope? I know that little toy," he said with a smile. "Everyone uses it as a special telescope. Only you have discovered a new use."
Scott smiled "shyly" again.
At this moment, Professor Flitwick spoke his mind.
He hoped that this matter could be kept secret, and he didn't want Scott and his students to get into a sad situation because of this matter.
Dumbledore, of course, had no objection to that.
He seemed to have something to say to Professor Flitwick, so Scott left the principal's office alone.
After leaving the principal's office, Scott came to the stairs on the eighth floor and saw the Weasley twins and Eddie waiting there.
"How about it, Scott, what did Professor Flitwick say?" Eddie asked him curiously after seeing Scott.
"Professor Flitwick suggested that we keep this matter a secret." Scott whispered Professor Flitwick's concerns about them.
Eddie nodded again and again, "So you still think this way? It seems that we should really keep this matter a secret."
Fred and George were standing with their backs against the wall, nodding their heads as if to echo Eddie's words, but Scott noticed that the two guys were dozing off.
"Did those two guys stay up last night?" he asked Eddie in a low voice.
Eddie shrugged. "Obviously."
"Oh..." George suddenly half-opened his eyes.
He shook his head to clear himself up a little.
"Professor Flitwick is right," he said. "We can't become persona non grata like Rita Skeeter..."
"We did not sleep last night, and the group of rune circuits researched some..."
At this moment, Fred also spoke, and he and George began to say two different things at the same time.
"I think you two might as well skip class and go to sleep." Scott said with a smile, "What's your class in the afternoon?"
"Oh……"
"Yes……"
It took Fred and George a while to remember.
"It's Potions class."
"..."
Scott looked at the two sympathetically.
With their current muddled state, they might blow up the cauldron in Potions class.
"Oh, you two just wait for points to be deducted." Eddie smiled gloatingly, "But it's okay, anyway, Gryffindor has no house points to deduct."
