Chapter 25 Bernard: I'm terrified

The sofas and chairs in the common room are obviously not available to the entire Hufflepuff House.

Therefore, in line with the principle that a few people have less power than everyone has none, they were turned into small round tables for serving food, so that all Hufflepuffs had to stand to eat the entire meal.

But the little badgers wiped their mouths and said that this was nothing. They couldn't eat all kinds of food at one table. They had to move back and forth between different tables.

And you eat more standing up!

The dinner that night was a carnival within Hufflepuff, and somehow several professors seemed to have heard about it later. Professor Sprout even talked about it when he took Adam to take care of the poisonous tentacles one day.

"You did a great job. Food has the power to soothe people, and sweets can make people feel happy, right?"

Professor Sprout gave Adam a box of Honeydukes assorted candies. At the same time, he asked when Adam opened the store and said that he would come to visit sometimes. She also wanted to try the pumpkin pie and candies that so many Hufflepuffs were raving about. .

Hearing what his dean said, Adam felt a little bit subtle at the time——

Why does he have the inexplicable feeling that he is playing a business game, his reputation is up to standard, and he is a special customer?

Soon after, Adam discovered that the special customer unlocked this time seemed to be more than just Professor Sprout.

"Adam, Cedric came to see you just now..."

Uther walked into the dormitory with some confusion and passed Cedric.

"Come and place orders for Professors McGonagall and Dumbledore."

Adam's expression was also a little complicated, but he quickly refocused on the chess game in front of him:

"Queen, eat the bishop opposite."

After this period of progress, the chess pieces had enough confidence in Adam's current chess ability. The white queen waved her scepter and smashed the black bishop to pieces.

"The chariot retreats."

Cologne gave the order to the chess pieces, looked at Bernard who came back with Uther, and looked curious:

"Owl package? What did you buy?"

"I didn't buy it, it was my parents. I wrote to them before about the troll, and they sent me something for self-defense."

Bernard opened the package and revealed its contents: two pistols, ten boxes of ammunition, and five grenades.

Adam took one look and his eyes widened:

"Oh my god, Bernard, does your family still do this kind of business?"

"I said my parents are lawyers, but they are very familiar with the seller. After all, sometimes there are some troublesome cases..."

Bernard picked up a revolver under Adam's complicated eyes, operated it skillfully, and loaded the bullet.

"What's that?"

Colon was no longer in the mood to play chess. He looked curiously at what was in Bernard's hand and picked up the round thing from the package.

"A Muggle weapon is probably similar to a wizard's Death Curse."

Bernard said nonchalantly, and after looking at Cologne, he reminded:

"Don't touch the tab on it, it's a white phosphorus grenade."

"What?!" x4

Cologne and Uther looked at Bernard in horror at the same time, and even Eugene jumped out of bed.

Adam looked at Cologne's hand in horror, and quickly and carefully snatched the white phosphorus grenade from Cologne's hand.

Forget about guns, they can get such things. What kind of ruthless people did Bernard's parents know?

The dormitory was so quiet for a while that Bernard raised his head and looked at everyone suspiciously:

"What's wrong?"

"Ahem, Bernard, your metaphor is not quite right. Although these weapons can be deadly, they are still different from the Death Curse..."

Adam saw everyone's reaction and thought about it for a while to understand what the problem was, but then he realized something was wrong:

"By the way, how do you know the Death Curse?"

"I saw it in the book."

Bernard still didn't realize the problem.

"Book? Where can I find a book with a death curse written on it?"

Uther looked at him suspiciously.

"Uh...books in the library."

Bernard felt guilty.

"Which book is in the library?"

Eugene pressed.

"...Okay, I sneaked into the forbidden book area and saw it."

Bernard broke the jar and said.

"Restricted Book Zone? How did you get in?"

Cologne's eyes gleamed, and Uther gave him an elbow.

The point is wrong!

Cologne thought about it and discovered another important point:

"Adam, how do you know the Death Curse?!"

"Ah this..."

"Mrs. Pince wouldn't let me in at first, and then I taught myself the lock-picking spell and the disillusionment spell..."

Bernard also noticed that everyone's attitude was a bit subtle, so he told the truth.

"hiss--"

Adam, who knew the difficulty of these two spells, especially the Disillusionment Curse, took a breath of air. Isn't Bernard's talent a bit unsuitable for Hufflepuff?

However, for safety reasons, Adam kindly reminded:

"Bernard, there are many books in the restricted area with vicious curses on them. You must pay attention to your safety."

As soon as he finished speaking, Adam noticed that the other three people began to look at him with strange expressions.

"It seems that we should educate you two about the seriousness of the Unforgivable Curse. I don't want to wake up one day and find that you are not in the bed in the dormitory but in Azkaban."

Uther looked serious.

Eugene and Cologne nodded in agreement:

"There is also a restricted book area! How can you go to such a dangerous place!"

Adam, who had not had time to do anything bad but was still being treated as an educational target: "No, that, wait, you listen to my explanation..."

After some popular science, Bernard touched his chin and suddenly realized:

"I see... But I can understand that the Soul-stealing Curse and the Cruciatus Curse are unforgivable curses. Why is the Death Curse also an unforgivable curse? There should be many curses that can kill people, right?"

"There are indeed many curses that can kill people, but the Death Curse can only kill people, and the Death Curse must have a very firm and clear intention to kill a person in order to be successful."

After Adam finished speaking, he noticed that Uther and the others looked at him even more strangely.

"No, I actually..."

Uther patted Adam on the shoulder before Adam could explain and sighed:

"Go and apply for Egyptian citizenship. If you are going to be imprisoned in Azkaban in the future, I can ask my father to find a way to extradite you to Egypt."

Adam was speechless: "Thank you, but I don't think I can use it."

As he said, there are too many curses that can kill people. In comparison, the Death Curse is not even efficient enough.

"Don't look at me. Look at Bernard. I'm just rich in theoretical knowledge. His bag of things is more punishable and handcuffed than mine, okay?"

Especially white phosphorus grenades!

Adam gave his three roommates a lesson in white phosphorus bombs. The three roommates looked at Bernard and then at Adam.

"Are you Muggles so scary?"

"What does it have to do with me?"

Adam screamed innocently.

"My parents also wanted me to be safer in school."

Bernard was a little guilty at first, but then he straightened up:

"The fact that the troll entered Hogwarts has not yet been investigated. What if we are in danger again later? A pistol may not be able to cause harm to the troll, but white phosphorus bullets should be able to!"

"I am a freshman who just entered Hogwarts. In my first semester at Hogwarts, I encountered something like a troll invasion. I was extremely scared. Can't I find some means of self-defense?"

That's not so full of martial virtue, right? !

Adam's hand slapped Bernard on the back:

"Brother, help me introduce your parents' friend!"
