Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 296: Quick-acting Skip Candy

Hermione was arguing with the Weasley twins when Nydia pushed aside the Fat Lady's picture frame and walked into the Gryffindor common room.

"You can't do this, what if they get seriously ill!" Hermione said to the twin brothers seriously.

"They will be fine. We have already used these candies on ourselves. Now we just want to see if they have the same effect on everyone!" George said.

Nidia found a group of first-year freshmen sitting next to them. Each of them was in a different state. Some were vomiting, some were slumped in their seats, and one of them had his tongue sticking out of his old age. long.

"What's wrong with them?" Nidia looked at the new students in surprise, "Are you sure you don't need to send them to the hospital? They look... very bad!"

"Don't worry, these effects will only last for a while, and they will recover later!" Fred said to Nidia easily.

"This is our latest product, a quick-acting truant candy! It's most suitable for students like you who are in the O.W.L year." George took out a purple candy and handed it to Nidia, "Would you like to have one! "

Nitya curiously reached out and took the candy from George's hand.

"Nitya, you can't eat this, it's nosebleed nougat!" Harry on the side said to her nervously when he saw this.

"What is nosebleed nougat? What are the effects of eating it?" Nitya asked George.

When George and Fred saw Nidia's interest, they both got in front of Nidia and happily explained to her.

"It's like this. You only need to eat half of the candy and you will have a lot of nosebleeds for no reason. It looks very serious, but as long as you eat the other half, the nosebleeds will stop immediately! but……"

"But your research is not perfect yet, and the bleeding cannot be stopped yet!" Harry looked at Nydia and shook her head, hoping that she would not keep the candy.

"This only happens occasionally, and we are now trying various methods to solve this problem!" George said.

"So the one I have in my hand can only be regarded as a semi-finished product, right?" Nidia looked at the candy in her hand, "Are you selling these candies?"

George and Fred looked at each other, and then said happily, "Of course, this one is considered a gift from us. After all, it is just a semi-finished product. But we also have other candies with different effects, but they are all It is a successful product that has been tested, and we can give you some discounts if you need it! ”

"Please! Nidia, please don't support them in doing such a thing!" Hermione looked at Nidia in disbelief.

"I think these are quite interesting! It's amazing that they can develop such candies by themselves. Why can't they support it?" Nydia looked at Hermione in confusion.

"Didn't you see they were doing experiments on first-year students?" Hermione said seriously.

"We paid them!" Fred immediately defended.

"Look, aren't they all fine now?" Nidia pointed to the new students beside her. The ones who were vomiting and comatose before are now fine, and the one whose tongue was stretched is now back to its original shape.

Fred and George immediately nodded proudly.

"You!" Hermione looked at Fred and George angrily, "I can't help you if you want to do experiments on yourself, but you can't do experiments on other people, otherwise..."

"Otherwise you're going to put us in confinement, right?" George said nonchalantly. They didn't believe that Hermione would really do this. "Or are you going to punish us for copying sentences?"

"No!" Hermione said angrily, "I'm going to write and tell your mother all this!"

"Are you kidding? You can't really write it!" George became frightened.

"I will write it! As long as I see you experimenting with freshmen again, I will definitely write it." Seeing that George and Fred were scared, Hermione felt satisfied.

Hermione's method obviously worked well for George and Fred. They were frightened, quickly packed their things and hurried towards the stairs leading to the boys' dormitory.

"Nitya, you'd better not try to eat this candy." Harry kept staring nervously at the candy in Nitya's hand, "Even George and Fred can't control its effects now. , if you eat it, your nose will probably stop bleeding! That’s no joke.”

"I didn't say I wanted to eat it myself!" Nidia put the small purple candy into her pocket. "I'm going to get some rest. Aren't you going to go to bed?"

"We are still writing the paper that Snape assigned, the one about the moonstone!" Hermione said, picking up her piece of parchment, which was still blank. She shook her head and said, "Forget it. , I’m going to bed too, I have no clue now, I should go to the library to borrow some information.”

Moonstone again! Nydia frowned and turned to look at Harry.

Harry was a little surprised when he suddenly received Nidia's gaze. He felt a hint of unpleasant emotion in Nidia's eyes, and this unpleasant emotion seemed to be related to himself.

"What's wrong?" Harry asked Nydia in confusion.

Nidia was stunned for a moment, then quickly shook her head and turned her gaze elsewhere. What on earth are you thinking about? Why are you still angry with Harry?

"Hermione, didn't you say you want to go back to the dormitory?" Nidia urged Hermione.

"Wait, it'll be ready soon!" Hermione was using several pieces of crumpled parchment to cover a strange-shaped woolen thing.

"What is that? What are you doing?" Ron, who had been silent when Hermione and the twin brothers argued, said. He looked at Hermione as if he suspected that she was not clear-headed.

"This is the hat I knitted for the house elves. I knitted too slowly without using magic, but now that I'm back at school, I should be able to knit a large batch." Hermione looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction. .

"You want to give hats to house elves and cover them with garbage. Do you want them to mistake it for garbage and take the hat away?" Ron looked a little surprised.

"Yes!" Hermione replied confidently.

"You can't do this. You give them freedom, but they may not want freedom." Ron said angrily.

"Of course they want to be free!" Hermione replied without thinking, and then warned Ron, "You must not touch these hats."

After Hermione finished speaking, she turned around and walked in the direction of the girls' dormitory, and Nydia immediately followed her.

"Ron is right. You force them to be free like this, but they may not want freedom. If they don't stay at Hogwarts, where should they go?" Nydia said after catching up with Hermione.

"Of course they can continue to stay at Hogwarts, but they will no longer be serving for free. They can be paid like Dobby." Hermione said to Nydia unhappily, "You have already helped George and Fred has spoken, I hope you will stop helping Ron now."

"I'm not helping Ron, I'm helping the house elves. You are forcing them to accept something they don't want." Nidia said, "After you graduate, you can consider working in the Ministry of Magic. To be responsible for the implementation of various laws and regulations, and to enforce them if negotiation fails, this job is suitable for you! "

Nidia's words actually had some sarcastic meaning, but Hermione started to think about it seriously.

"I should really consider your proposal!" Hermione opened the bedroom door and walked in.

Nydia stood at the door dumbfounded. She didn't expect Hermione to actually have such an idea. The future reform of the laws and regulations of the Ministry of Magic may have originated from one of her jokes.

"Why are you so surprised!" Hermione turned around and saw Nydia standing at the door and not coming in. "Using political power to promote the House Elf Rights Promotion Association will definitely be more effective than promoting it ourselves."

All right! If Maggie and Kira come to ask for wages one day, Nidia will never be surprised.
