Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 254: McDoug 1


In the early morning, the snow stopped outside the house. As soon as Isobel woke up, feeling a little cold in the room, she tucked her head into the bed. From the kitchen downstairs, there was a faint noise. The girl sighed lightly, got up quickly, got dressed, and went downstairs to help make breakfast.

“Mom, don’t you have to go to work at St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries today?” asked the red-haired girl in home clothes as she walked into the kitchen and looked at Mrs. McDougall, who was busy preparing breakfast.

“My dear, today is your birthday.” Mrs. McDougall motioned to her daughter to wait a moment. “So, I took a half-day vacation and made you a hearty breakfast.”

“The beef is about to be charred!” Katrina hurriedly warned when she smelled a faint burnt smell when she went downstairs.

“I’ll do it!” Isobel sighed, pulled out her wand, and took over Mrs. McDoug’s cooking.

Perhaps, there is a saying that is right, everyone has something they are good at. And their mothers, in addition to being very talented in healing, always messed up other things, even the cooking magic that took a long time to practice, still can’t cook delicious food proficiently.

Who would have thought that the director of the famous Spells and Injuries at St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries is a mess except in terms of treatment!

“Oh, okay!” Mrs. McDougall was a little lost, but quickly regained her composure. “By the way, I just counted the gifts. You received fifteen birthday gifts this year.”

“Okay mom, I think we can wait until after breakfast before unpacking those birthday presents.” Isobel directed the beef in the pan with her wand, plattering them deftly, while Katrina used Cooking magic omelets and fried sausages, and making vegetables salad with tomatoes and other vegetables by the way, her cooking magic is not as skilled as Isobel, and she needs to pay attention to cooking.

“Good morning, Dad.” Isobel looked at the photo of the young man next to her and greeted softly. The man in the photo is smiling at them.

“Katrina’s family magic has come a long way!” Mrs. McDougall complimented herself, with little talent for cooking.

“I’ve been practicing,” Katrina said. In fact, she is helping with housework at home, and the mother of the two has been busy at St. Mungo’s Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries for a long time.

At breakfast, the McDoug family ate and chatted about some interesting things happening at school. In fact, the two sisters have been reassuring Mrs. McDougall.

After breakfast together, it’s time to unpack Isobel’s birthday gifts. Most of them are ordinary little gifts from Ravenclaw students. If you want to say who’s gift is the most special, it’s Mog. The latest version of the rune book presented by my uncle.

“I don’t think many people at Hogwarts can understand this book!” Katrina took the magic book, turned a few pages, and couldn’t help complaining.

Although she has learned some, ancient runes are not Katrina’s strong suit.

“There will always be someone who can understand.” Isobel put away the magic book with a calm expression.

“Robert Hilliard, are you after you?” Katrina asked, looking at the sender of the package and tilting her head to look at Isobel.

“Why do you say that?” Isobel asked rhetorically.

“Intuitive.” Katrina looked at the pair of beautiful white gloves, raised her eyebrows and said, “His eyesight is not bad.”

“What kind of child is that?” asked Mrs. McDougall curiously.

“I didn’t notice, what’s wrong?” Isobel handed Katrina the unpacked package. “If you like it, I’ll give it to you.”

“Never mind.” Katrina didn’t intend to. After all, that was Robert’s intention. If he used it himself, the poor guy would probably cry and faint in the toilet.

“Thank you, the hat is beautiful!” Isobel put on a black wizard hat on her head, with a gorgeous wicked tail feather on the hat, which looked elegant and was very suitable for banquets. wore.

“You’re welcome.” Katrina laughed. “Anyway, I didn’t pay for it.”

Mrs. McDougall looked at her two daughters, feeling that they had something to hide from her.

“Hey, Albert actually gave you a birthday present.” Katrina was surprised when she saw the signature on the package.

“Last time, I used a magic spell to exchange things with him.” Isobel opened the package and was stunned when he saw the contents inside.

“What is this, a wood carving?” Katrina asked in confusion. “It looks very small, though.”

“Amulet?” Mrs. McDoug looked at the unicorn woodcarving, a little surprised to see such a finely crafted amulet.

“Amulet? By the way, there’s a card inside.” Katrina reached for the card and handed it to Isobel.

Isobel glanced at the card and handed it to Katrina again.

“Can I read it?”

“Well, read it!”

“Hopefully it will help you through your impending doom – Albert Anderson.”

“Doom, what doom?” Katrina was even more puzzled, what happened between them?

Isobel briefly explained the last runes divination.

“Although I don’t want to speak ill of Professor Trelawney in private, a lot of people say she’s a liar, you know, something like divination takes talent, and Professor Trelawney clearly doesn’t.” Catri Na clearly didn’t believe Professor Trelawney’s divination.

“It looks like something is engraved on it.” Mrs. McDougall took the amulet, looked at it carefully, and commented, “I dare say, this kind of amulet must be very expensive, you know, the one sold in the market. It’s all a lie~IndoMTL.com~ This thing works?” Katrina was dubious.

“Should work. By the way, this is actually carved from mandrake.”

As a healer, Mrs. McDougall was also very good at concocting potions and quickly recognized the wood from which the amulet was carved.

“Is that the mandrake?” Katrina suddenly remembered something. It seemed that someone had stolen a mandrake from the Hogwarts greenhouse. Could it be…

“This thing needs to be carved with mature mandrakes, and the mandrakes at the school are still immature.” Isobel reminded him aloud as if he saw through his sister’s thoughts.

“Also, this amulet is probably made by Anderson himself. He is very good at rune and alchemy.” Isobel pointed to the ancient rune carved on it and explained, “As for the price, it’s definitely not yours. The hat is expensive.”

“Albert Anderson? I seem to have seen this person’s name on ‘The Practical Potions Master’ a while back.” Mrs. McDougall suddenly remembered where she had heard the name, “It is said that Anderson is a Potions genius, improved potions admired by Mr. Dagworth.”

“That guy is indeed a genius.” Isobel admitted it simply, “However, you may have to ask Katrina about the specific situation to be clearer. They are students of the same class.”

“That Mr. Anderson is in the same class as Katrina?” Mrs. McDougall’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“Well, he is the same class as me. He is a recognized genius wizard in the school. Many people think that he will be the next Dumbledore Headmaster.” Katrina hesitated for a moment, but said, “In fact, he is already in the Papers have been published in many academic journals.”
