Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard

After making friends with the dog, Sainz took a long walk in the forbidden forest and saw many small animals, but he didn't see any of the rumored unicorns, werewolves, etc.

Not even the centaurs were seen.

At first he wanted to hide, and he didn't want to meet the centaur. Later he simply stopped hiding, and later he even looked for it consciously, but didn't see it.

As the sun rose higher, the morning passed by.

"Ah, forbidden forest, forbidden forest!

That's it?

There is nothing to ban about this!"

Sainz strolled around for the whole morning, but found it boring, so he determined the direction of the castle and made a quick return trip.

As he floated back, he thought again, "Actually, the name of this forest is not the Forbidden Forest. The official name is the Dark Forest or the Black Forest. It means that the forest is very dark even during the day and there are dangers hidden in it.

It is not unreasonable to extend it to the forbidden forest. Ha, it is another issue of language filtering. "

When I went to look for it inside first, I wasted time because I had to search everywhere. Now I went out, aimed at the castle and flew, and soon I reached the edge of the woods.

The forest gradually thinned out, landed on the ground, walked out, and strolled towards the castle.

"That was a bit of a mistake. I should have kept a broomstick ready."

He thought: "We can't be completely invisible nowadays. Flying in the air is a bit too conspicuous. It's better to ride a broomstick to be more in line with my identity."

After returning to the Room of Requirement, Sainz immediately asked Conte to help him go to Diagon Alley to buy an Oak Arrow 1987.

The Oak Arrow series is different from the Nimbus series commonly used in competitions. It is more like the old aristocrats among brooms.

Compared to other brooms, its wooden handle is much thicker, which is designed for longer-lasting flight and resistance to strong winds.

The appearance is very beautiful, like a vintage gun among firearms. It is more ergonomic and has more collection value than those boxy modular firearms.

Its advantages are safety and stability.

Of course, if you use this precious old broom to participate in a Quidditch game, you will definitely be beaten by other brooms.

It is undoubtedly unwise to drive a powerful heavy truck to compete with a small car in speed and agility.

But its reliability is worth affirming, as it is the earliest recorded broom used to fly across the Atlantic.

Of course, some people who value the sensitivity of a broom over safety do not welcome it very much. It does not perform well in making quick turns during high-speed flight.

With Quidditch booming today, weak brooms like the Oak Arrow are naturally at a disadvantage in the competition.

When it comes to racing brooms, many companies have been vying for the top spot, but today the Nimbus series is the clear winner.

Sainz's oak arrow was processed very perfectly, with a neat and smooth tail, uniform thickness and no impurities.

The round, smooth, straight and sturdy broom handle was engraved with beautiful patterns, and a few words were hidden in the patterns: Grimm.

That was the broom's identity proof. Just as Ollivander was a famous wand maker in the UK, Grimm was also from a family of broom makers in Portsmouth.

Because it is not a competition broom and the demand is small, each oak arrow is made as fine and comfortable as possible.

It doesn't mean that handmade items are necessarily better than mass-produced items, but it means that they are more unique and have greater collection value.

In fact, despite its extraordinary beauty, its market price is cheaper than the mass-produced light wheel series because it does not have an advantage in racing performance.

…………

On Sunday morning, Sainz was eating breakfast in the Room of Requirement and reading the day's newspaper.

"The Daily Prophet is really trashy, and there is really nothing new in the wizarding world!

These mischievous wizards are really not annoying, Conte, why do you think they tease Muggles every day?"

"Sir, house elves shouldn't make random comments about wizards."

"Okay, pretend I didn't ask."

"Sir, would you like me to add another bowl of your favorite peppery and spicy soup with a variety of additional ingredients?"

"No thanks, I'm full."

After dinner, Sainz picked up the newspaper to digest the food and flipped through it. He accidentally came across the reading notes exchange section that he had never paid attention to before.

This is equivalent to a magical version of a book review section, but because it is conducted in a newspaper, information exchange is relatively slow and delayed.

Another thing is that because of the official review of the Japanese server of Prophet, anything that can be released has been filtered, and the language is relatively official and boring.

Unlike the reading websites in the previous life, there are all kinds of people in the comment section.

Moreover, real academic exchanges have their own loose organizations, and most of the wizards who can come to this section exchange some novel contents with each other, which is inconsistent with his current busy work of improving his strength, so he usually doesn't pay much attention to it.

Today I suddenly saw the remarks of these bored "bored wizards" who write in newspapers every day, and I found them quite interesting.

I asked Conte to help me find the relevant sections of previous issues and take a look at them.

It really feels like ripping through the comment section.

This person says that if I were to write a certain novel, it would definitely be this and that.

The one who said that a certain novel was so watery that when you held a book in your hand, water would keep oozing out of it, and it wouldn't dry even if you put it in the sun. He used a fire spell to bake the book, and the tip of his wand turned yellow, but the book didn't dry at all.

After all, the wizarding world is simple and honest, and most of the insults are rather subtle, usually not involving previous generations or ancestors.

Of course, there are also people who seriously discuss the plot of a book, rather than just making random comments.

Not to mention, there are quite a few really interesting comments in these book friends' messages, and some of their insights were really helpful to him.

However, people who discuss academic matters are often not very welcome here and are always attacked by brainless fans of certain books.

For example, some people questioned the authenticity of Gilderoy Lockhart's books.

At first, the book friends were still able to discuss the book happily, but a week later, the book friend who raised the question was attacked crazily by Lockhart's fans.

Judging from subsequent developments, it seems that there was not only verbal attacks, but someone even tried to send him cursed items. However, the attempt failed because the book friend did not use his real name, which led to implicit curses in subsequent messages.

Sainz estimated that the newspaper might not have taken it seriously at first, but after they realized what was happening, they ignored the subsequent controversial comments.

It ended with the besieged book friend no longer appearing.

Fans, especially the brainless fans, are of this nature, and it is no surprise to Sainz.

“There are still discerning people here, maybe they can really help!

As the saying goes, if there are dates, try your best to get them. What if one falls off? "

He picked up a pen and wrote a short message without a beginning or an end, without a salutation or a signature.

"I have a question. If the protagonist of a book wants to observe a certain event, but because it appears for a very short time each time, he does not have time to observe it each time, what should he do?"

He also took out a piece of paper and wrote a letter to the editorial department, saying that he needed this sentence to appear in the newspaper as soon as possible and to be published for five consecutive days. For this purpose, he planned to attach five Galleons to the letter.

This section was originally for the readers, and all content published on it is free. Sometimes, in order to increase newspaper sales, small prizes are even distributed occasionally. I believe that someone who gives money to the readers like this should be welcomed.

"Conte, please use a public owl to send this letter to the Daily Prophet and post it in this reading notes exchange section. This is an extra five Galleons. They will know what to do.

Oh, and remember to give the messenger some snacks as a reward. I'll get some from Speed."

"Yes, sir!"
