Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Chapter 12 Scientific research is important

"I don't have classes this morning, so let's get started now."

Professor McGonagall waved her magic wand casually: "I first need a valuable paper. To put it simply, it means making your thoughts clear."

A quill and a piece of parchment fell on the table in front of Lu Ke.

Lu Ke nodded: "Wizards can cast magic spells, but dumb guns can't. To solve this problem, we must first know what caused this result."

"Two completely opposite appearances. To see the reason clearly, we must first eliminate the similarities between the two."

Professor McGonagall nodded: "But there are too many similarities between wizards and squibs."

Lu Ke smiled: "This is actually a good thing, because there are few differences, so there are fewer distractions that need to be eliminated."

Professor McGonagall shook her head: "So in your opinion, what are the differences between wizards and squibs?"

Lu Ke picked up the pen and began to write and draw on the paper.

"The most important point is whether the magic can be released, but this is just an appearance. What is important is the inner difference, and considering that both squibs and wizards are born, it is likely that the decisive factor is innate inheritance."

Professor McGonagall was stunned for a moment: "Heredity?"

Lu Ke nodded: "That is, something that is determined at birth, such as whether a boy is a boy or a girl."

A look of interest appeared on Professor McGonagall's face: "No one has ever made such a division, so it may be difficult for you to distinguish what is born like this."

Lu Ke smiled: "It's very simple. It's the body that's born this way, but it's the mind that can change as it grows."

Professor McGonagall returned to her serious expression: "I must remind you that many who study wizards' bodies are dark wizards."

Lu Ke shook his head: "Of course I don't know how to study black magic. I can just go to the hospital to study the wizard's body."

Professor McGonagall was stunned for a moment: "Are you sure?"

Lu Ke nodded: "No one can understand the body of a wizard better than a doctor, and in the final analysis, if the body is different from that of a normal wizard, resulting in bad consequences, it can be called a disease or disability, and I am like this now It can also be regarded as a special congenital disease.”

Professor McGonagall was silent for a moment, then nodded: "I can give you full marks for this class assignment. You found a feasible research plan in such a short time, which really surprised me."

Lu Ke smiled: "This is just the beginning."

Professor McGonagall nodded: "So I suggest you not to be too anxious or too happy."

"The school hospital at Hogwarts has never studied how to treat squibs, because it is meaningless and impractical. For the same reason, St. Mungo's Hospital has not done any relevant research. I'm afraid it will be very difficult for you to get help. Disaster."

Lu Ke was a little surprised, but he was not disappointed: "This is the difference between researchers and practitioners, the difference between science and technology."

Professor McGonagall was stunned for a moment: "Science? I remember this is a Muggle word."

Lu Ke nodded: "Science refers to understanding the truth of the world, and technology refers to the method of transforming the world. Thousands of years of Muggle experience have come to the conclusion that all technology is based on science, and only science has enough Development, technology can develop faster.”

Professor McGonagall was silent for a moment, and then looked at Lu Ke with a surprised look on his face: "Can I understand what you said to mean that only by doing useless things and seeing clearly why there is a certain disease can it be possible to cure this disease? A disease?"

Lu Ke smiled: "Isn't it like this?"

Professor McGonagall was silent.

Although it sounds like a natural thing, if you think about the reality carefully, you will know how unique this statement is.

All the medical techniques used to treat wizards now are magic and potions passed down from a long time ago. The hospital has always only cared about whether it can be cured, not where the disease comes from.

"In your opinion, most doctors are wrong, and St. Mungo's is wrong?"

Lu Ke shook his head: "Of course not. This is what I mean by the difference between researchers and practitioners. Doctors only need to cure patients, and they should only focus on this, in order to save energy. It is researchers who should figure out the cause of illness. "In Muggles, shi jie tong are usually employees of research institutions and professors in universities. In this wizarding world, I don't know if there is any institution that focuses on the study of magic. In the case of universities, it is Hogwarts."

Professor McGonagall looked at Lu Ke with emotion: "So you are accusing all the magic school professors of failing in their duties."

Lu Ke shook his head quickly: "How is it possible..."

Professor McGonagall raised her right hand to stop Lu Ke's explanation: "I think you are right. But I must explain to you that the fact that we have not done enough does not mean that we have not worked hard enough."

"Professor Dumbledore once collaborated with Nick Flamel to study the twelve uses of dragon's blood. This is also a very remarkable research. Many of our professors, including your Slytherin Dean, Professor Snape, have done their own research We have done a lot of in-depth research in familiar fields and achieved a lot of results, but after all, we have too few people.”

Professor McGonagall sighed: "There are not many wizards in the whole of Anglicis. There are only three wizard schools in the whole of Europe. There are very few wizards who are willing to spend time and energy studying the mysteries of magic."

Lu Ke smiled: "I really didn't mean that..."

Professor McGonagall nodded: "So, do you have any plans for studying the body of wizards?"

Lu Ke nodded: "There is an excellent sample here, and that is myself. Regarding body research, there are two directions that I think we can try. One is blood and the other is brain."

Professor McGonagall was silent for a moment.

"Many wizards believe that blood is where magical power condenses and resides. You can imagine that blood is normal, but the brain? What's the reason?"

Lu Ke thought for a while: "A miraculous power like a magic spell is unlikely to be brought about by differences in other parts. The brain is the most special part of the human body."

Professor McGonagall glanced at Lu Ke: "That's very dangerous. I suggest you not get involved in the brain first, and think about how to study blood first."

Lu Ke nodded: "Of course, easy first and then difficult."

Then he looked at Professor McGonagall curiously: "Do wizards have any research on blood?"

Professor McGonagall looked at Lu Ke seriously: "Most of the research on blood belongs to the category of black magic."

Lu Ke smiled helplessly: "But I'm a squib."

Professor McGonagall nodded helplessly.

Dark magic affects the mind of the wizard who casts it.
