Chapter 723: Strong desire to survive
Chapter 723: Strong desire to survive
"Look, Dumbledore, what have we brought you!"
Professor Slughorn pushed the door into the principal's office and said directly to Dumbledore sitting at the desk.
Albert and Isabel also followed into the principal's office.
"I received the news yesterday, Slughorn." Dumbledore said gently, looking at Albert who put the golden crucible symbolizing the championship on the desk. "Good job, Mr. Anderson. Since I started as Hogwarts principal, the school has never won the Potions Championship again."
"Thanks to Mr. Anderson, you don't even know Bernard's shameless old guy..." Professor Slughorn seemed to realize that his words were a bit out of date, coughed lightly, and changed his words: "That guy actually modified it. In accordance with the rules of this Potions Championship, I intend to directly let his grandson win the championship."
"He must be angry," Dumbledore said softly. "By the way, Mr. Anderson, the reporter from the Daily Prophet would like to give you an exclusive interview."
"Couldn't it be Rita Kist who was in charge of the interview?" Albert raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Yes, if you don't want to be interviewed, I can understand it."
"I don't really like Rita Skeeter either." Professor Slughorn shrugged and explained when everyone was looking at him. "Although sometimes her report is very interesting, but more often, you I don’t understand what is true and what is false."
"Well, I will accept the interview."
Albert agreed with him, believing that the woman who fears the world will not be chaotic will give Bernard an unexpected surprise.
The other three people in the principal's office were a bit surprised. Perhaps they didn't expect Albert to agree to accept the interview, thinking that he would simply refuse.
Albert noticed the flash of surprise on Isobel’s face, and explained with a smile: “If you don’t accept the interview, Rita Kist will definitely make a mess of reports again.”
"I think the Daily Prophet will definitely be very happy. I'll let someone inform you of the specific time." After Dumbledore finished speaking, he asked the two of them to go back to rest.
"You don't seem to be very happy?"
After leaving the principal's office and walking a certain distance forward, Isabel finally spoke.
"Nothing. I thought the principal would give some rewards after taking away the Golden Crucible." Albert said in a half-joking tone: "After all, we won back a championship for the school, at least give points, or prepare one for us. A sumptuous celebration banquet, there was nothing in the end."
"Didn't you already get a huge bonus?" Isobel stared at Aber Chartered for a long time.
"What's the matter?" Albert asked.
"I find you are getting more and more profitable."
"Well, it's always easy for people to live as people they hate." Albert said softly.
"You can always have a few plausible sayings in your mouth." Isabel looked at Albert with a scrutiny gaze: "They are right. You are more and more like Dumbledore. You must be able to carry countless. The dazzling halo graduated from school."
"I'm not Dumbledore, and I don't want to be a great person like him, and I'm not going to never marry a wife like the principal." Albert remembered a joke from his previous life: Dumbledore only loves Greenward.
"My goal in life is to be rich, marry a beautiful wife, have two children, and then spend the rest of my life freely." Albert remembered his life goal and nodded in satisfaction, "I feel thirty years old. It can all be realized before."
"You are not looking for two or three girlfriends now."
"It's been a long time ago. Don't use it to tease me." Albert changed the subject. "By the way, your previous boldness really surprised me."
"It's not to satisfy your vanity." Isobel was obviously not happy about Albert mentioning it.
"It's kind of you, that kiss really satisfied me more than that gold-plated cauldron." Albert said seriously.
Isabel asked with a smile, "What about your bag of Galleons?"
"Of course it is also suitable, gold always makes people happy."
"I found out that you are actually quite greedy and lustful."
"Yeah, men are like this." Albert did not deny. "This time, I have made a lot of money. I just grabbed your championship. If I didn't participate, the champion of this potions championship would be 80%. is yours."
"You look at me too high." Isabel shook his head and said: "I am not afraid of normal competition, but in this case, it is difficult to win the final championship by strength. I am not like you, and It’s very difficult to make the perfect Buffy Brain Rejuvenator. It’s hard to imagine that you would be willing to take risks.
"Adventure? No, I didn't take risks because I'm sure I will succeed."
"You cheated?"
Isobel seemed to realize something, and shook his head again, "But how do you ensure that you can make the perfect Buffy brain refresher?"
"It's a blessing agent."
Albert put his head to Isabel's ear and said softly, "It helps me to stimulate all my talents and naturally minimizes the probability of failure, so I dare to gamble."
"Anyway, everyone cheated?" Isabel looked strange.
"Yes, originally I didn't plan to use it, but they did too much. Aren't you curious about what I am working with with Kathleen?"
"Buffy Brain Rejuvenator, she provides you with the raw materials for practice, is that guy not afraid of losing money?"
"It turns out that she didn't lose money, she was a shrewd woman."
"What's the point of this kind of competition?"
"Let yourself have a good reputation, and give yourself the title of a genius pharmacist by the way. Do you think that in the future, I will endorse the Buffy Brain Refreshing Potion and sell it for a thousand gallons, not for blood?"
"You can see better than anyone else."
"Okay, don't think about it anymore." Albert stretched out his hand and held Isabel's hand, and suggested with a smile, "Let's go, go and celebrate, let Bit prepare a celebration dinner for us, and then look at this. How to spend the money."
Since the Hogwarts celebration banquet can't be counted on, it would be fine to open it yourself. Anyway, there are house elves, and it is more romantic for the two to eat and date together.
As soon as he entered the responsive room, Albert saw a dark figure rushing towards the two of them. Upon closer inspection, he found that Tom the Fat Cat was lining his ankle with excitement.
"Master, Bit has been giving Tom the weight weight according to your instructions." Seeing Albert's return, the house elf bowed slightly to the two of them.
"Thank you, Bit."
"This is what Bit should do. It is an honor of Bit." Bit said excitedly.
"Help us prepare a candlelight dinner. I plan to celebrate with Isobel here for winning this potion championship." Albert thought for a while and added: "If you can't help, you can let the school Other house elves help."
"This is my honour." The house elf bowed slightly, and then left quickly, obviously intending to share the good news with other friends.
As soon as he sat down on the sofa, Tom arched his head at Albert and stretched out his tongue to lick his face.
"It seems very sticky to you."
Isobel sat next to Albert, reached out and scratched Tom's chin.
"It should be the bit who tossed it hard enough." Albert turned Tom's weight upside down. "Being too fat is not a good thing after all, and it will easily affect your health."
"Valeria is also afraid of getting fat. She always says that after a woman has passed her thirty, she will quickly age into an old woman." Isabel looked at Albert's profile, "You are not curious that the three of us are there. What are you talking about?"
"Even if you are curious, you probably wouldn't tell me." Albert stopped giving Tom Shunmao, looked sideways at the girl next to him, and said, "After all, it's a secret that belongs to your girls."
"It's not a secret. We were talking about things after graduation. Catherine gave us some suggestions. She thinks she should find something meaningful for herself, so as not to become an old and worried housewife." Isabelle Sighed: "I think her words make sense. Mom looks very young, and your mother is the same. They are not housewives."
"That's because their actual age is still very young." Albert said the truth. "Most people are working for life after graduation. Only a few people with decent jobs can live like Kathleen said. That way, you can't help yourself, that's the normal state of life."
"Moreover, I think that people grow old and become ugly at the age of 30. It is completely caused by not knowing how to maintain the body." Albert reminded seriously: "Like Tom, he often overeats and becomes This little piggy cat. As long as you have a young mentality, self-discipline in life, regular exercise, a good diet, plus potions to maintain your skin, you will definitely be able to live younger than others."
"Your way of comforting people is still so crappy."
"I'm telling the truth." Albert shook his head. "If it were someone else, I would probably say that I would help her invent a potion that will keep her young, but to say that to you would be like a fool."
"Perhaps, we should control our diet from now on." Isabel would prefer to hear the previous sentence, although she also knows that it is to coax a girl.
"I think we still need to celebrate this hard-won victory."
"Did you know? Both Catherine and Valeria want to keep their face." Isobel leaned his head on Albert's shoulder. "Valeria always said that she was sixteen years old. Twenty-three years old is the most beautiful age for girls. said that he envied me very much and was able to find someone I like to marry me when I was the most beautiful."
"It seems that their family is not rich."
Isabel tilted his head and asked, "Why do you think so?"
"Young is the greatest wealth of girls."
"how about you?"
"I, I have money." Albert said without hesitation. "If there is no money, I don't expect to get married so early."
"If you don't have money, you won't marry me?"
"So, I have been desperately making money." Albert said seriously, "Fortunately, I also have this ability. Most Muggle wizards do not do well in the magic world."
"Did you know? I told Valeria that she can support herself with her potion talent. She said,'Young is my greatest wealth'."
"Very realistic girl, she must not be doing well." Albert commented.
"Actually, I can see that both Catherine and Valeria are a little bit interesting to you." Isabel said suddenly.
"But I can count the time I know them with my fingers." Albert dared not let the pot buckle on his head, and quickly said that he had no other thoughts.
"I know, but you are too easy to provoke those girls." Isobel couldn't help but sighed, "Valeria even mentioned things about development in the UK. If I am a man and fit Valeria's words, She is probably going to pester me directly!"
"You might marry her too, after all, it's obviously easier to chase after a beautiful girl." Albert said jokingly.
"Unfortunately, I am not a boy. If you are single, Valeria must be willing to have a passionate love with you."
"I already have a girlfriend."
