Chapter 279 International Wizards Guild
"The reason is very simple, because the process is too complicated, and there is no condition for those magical animals to carry out it, not to mention that transformation requires a wand! The wand can only be used by wizards, and magical animals cannot use wands..." Mag The professor explained to Tom the characteristics of the Animagus.
Finally, she said: "I would rather believe that some little wizards are born animagus than believe that there are cats or other animals that can turn into human forms. If a cat can turn into a human, then it must be Some unknown magical animal.”
What Professor McGonagall didn't expect was that this conversation would be her only interaction with the students in this Transfiguration class. Later, no matter what she said, the students in the audience had no reaction: no one took the initiative to answer the questions, and there was no longer any interaction. Even if she told a joke - Professor McGonagall thought it was a joke - but Nothing happened.
Professor McGonagall felt like she was giving lessons to the walls of a classroom. The students in the class were sitting in the classroom, and their souls were drifting away. Oh, Professor McGonagall could see that everyone's souls seemed to have been taken away by Harry Potter.
"Okay, let me show you how." She turned into a tabby cat in front of the whole class, but the students in the audience were still absent-minded.
Professor McGonagall reluctantly changed back to her original form.
"What's going on? Are you the first students who didn't applaud after seeing me transform?"
Hermione raised her hand.
"Last divination class..."
Professor McGonagall suddenly understood, "Okay, Miss Granger, which classmate will die this year?"
Harry raised his hand.
Professor McGonagall stared at Harry with her bright eyes, "Potter, Sybill Trelawney has predicted the death of a student every year since she came to this school - Ron sitting next to you. My brother Fred received such a prophecy, but he is still alive and kicking now."
It was obvious that Professor McGonagall, like Hermione, had no patience for divination. Tom was convinced that Hermione still took Divination lessons out of a student's instinct.
"Well, Mr. Potter, this is no reason for you not to do your homework tonight. I guarantee you that if you die, you will not have to turn in your homework again."
This joke successfully made the students laugh, and the atmosphere in the classroom became more relaxed. Amidst the laughter, Tom added: "What if Harry becomes a ghost? Like Professor Binns?"
Professor McGonagall thought for a while and clicked her tongue, "Then Yodel will do Harry's part. You have a lot of time anyway." She looked at Tom with a meaningful look.
"Oh, by the way," Professor McGonagall remembered something when the bell rang. "For the next class exam, I have to see if your level of deformation has decreased after a holiday. Don't say I haven't. Let me tell you in advance.”
After leaving such a bombshell, Professor McGonagall left happily, leaving only a room full of students frozen in place.
Trelawney's prophecy shocked the students of Gryffindor House, but Hermione paid no attention to it. To her, it was not as important as the new stew served in the kitchen. After enjoying a sumptuous lunch, Hermione walked out of the auditorium, touched her slightly swollen belly, and said to Tom: "The stew just now was very exotic, with pork slices, vegetables and strange white chunks. Stewed together, it has a unique flavor - but I hesitated for a long time before eating it. The white thing tastes very strange..."
The two of them walked back to the Ravenclaw common room while chatting. After giving each other a wink, they returned to their respective dormitories, placed the crystal ball under the pillow and began to take a nap.
Tom was very curious about this so-called "International Guild of Wizards". She really couldn't wait any longer. If she didn't go in at noon, she would have to wait until night.
Tom attended four classes in the morning, which made him fall asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
When he opened his eyes, he found that he was lying in a cabin-like room. There was nothing in the room, only a bed, a chair and a bedside table. Bright light shone in from the skylight on the roof, and through the window, Tom saw a clear, blue sky outside. Somewhat strangely, Tom felt that the ground seemed to be shaking slightly.
There is a book on the nightstand next to the bed.
Tom opened the book, flipped through a few pages, and found that lines of words were popping up quickly, like a shared document being edited.
Tom opened a page at random and started reading.
[Unidentified disappearance of personnel on the transcontinental railway
Mission rating: B level, it is recommended that an Auror team be led to investigate
Task description: Insufficient permissions to view.
Mission reward: 8000 points]
Tom raised his eyebrows. This thing made by Nico Flamel is quite interesting! Maybe it's because this is a dream, so some operations that are difficult to achieve are easier to achieve.
Tom walked out of the room and found himself in a small boat. The ship was not big, only seven or eight meters long and five or six meters wide. It had almost nothing except the cabin: no rudder, no sails, and no cables or anything like that.
In front of the boat is an endless ocean, but the shape of the water is a bit strange. It is not blue or black, but pure white. The boat is more like drifting on the clouds.
Tom saw a staircase in the wall of the cabin and went up it. Once on the roof, the view became wider, and Tom also saw Hermione's boat next to his own boat, and Hermione was also standing on the roof.
Both of them had the same reaction when they saw each other and couldn't help laughing.
"So what should we do?" Tom asked loudly to Hermione from the rooftop, "Didn't Dumbledore say he entered the guild after falling asleep?"
Hermione spread her hands, indicating that she didn't know. But as soon as they finished speaking, the boat started to move and moved forward quickly.
"This is too outrageous," Tom was a little dissatisfied. Do he and Hermione have to shout out every word they say? As soon as the thought occurred to him, the two ships came together, becoming one, and he could stand next to Hermione.
"What a guy! He's quite humane." Tom praised.
"It's a dream after all." Hermione thought this was quite normal.
Tom glanced at the "sea water" under the boat and found that in the depths of these "clouds", there seemed to be all kinds of strange scenes flashing quickly.
"I think it seems to be someone else's dream," Tom surmised based on the few images he saw. Hermione also came closer and looked carefully at the afterimage deep in the clouds.
After a while, the boat stopped.

Fried chicken experience (2)
The processing method of fried chicken is also very simple. It must be marinated for a day before frying! This is the key!
Some girls fry the meat without marinating it, or just sprinkle some spices before frying. These are wrong methods of frying chicken. The fried chicken is completely tasteless and terrible.
Generally speaking, we will wash the chicken first, and then wash it again after removing the bones. I don't have the habit of wiping the water. After the meat is cut, start adding seasonings.
Fried chicken relies heavily on the initial taste, so you need to work hard to add seasonings - you have to add seasonings like an Indian.
Salt, pepper, cumin, allspice, chili powder, and the mystery seasoning from the local supermarket (it's really called "mystery seasoning" and should be something like allspice) can be added to it. As for liquids such as soy sauce, This should be done in moderation.
You can even add curry powder!
The key is large quantities! Be sure to add more ingredients.
Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for one day.
Then you can start frying.
Before frying, you should also add various seasonings to the flour: salt, five-spice powder, etc. Pepper will darken the color of the dough, so be careful about this.
Coat it with flour first - the liquid on the surface of the chicken will absorb the flour, and then coat it in egg liquid. After coating it in egg liquid, coat it in flour again.
Flour seems to be particular about it - Baidu recommends this. Of course, if you have fried chicken powder, just pretend I didn't mention it.
