Chapter 2567 Cheese Trap (3)

In nature, there is a phenomenon called mimesis, which refers to the shape, color or stripes of some animals that are very similar to another, so as to deceive the enemy and protect themselves. For example, the Chinese coral snake carries highly poisonous, and its mimesis The multi-banded king snake is completely non-toxic. They are very similar in appearance. The original bright color is the warning color of the coral snake. The multi-banded king snake avoids injury by imitating the bright color of the coral snake.

   Mimicry includes three parties: the imitator, the imitated and the deceived, the deceived can be the predator or the prey. Among the magical plants is a delphinium, which is a mimic of the Devil's Web. The Devil's Web has two forms. In a semi-shady environment, it will disguise as a crab claw orchid, while in a dark and humid environment, it will return to the form of a vine. Light and warmth are its natural enemies, and it will actively stretch. Snake-like tendrils entangle those who approach it, causing casualties.

There are two ways to deal with it. One is the incendio. This flame magic will be learned in the fourth grade. Although the devil's net is powerful, it is resistant to many spells, but as long as you find its weakness a little Wizards can deal with it, the more they struggle, the tighter it gets.

  The other is the high-level lighting spell lumossolem. This spell is taught by Feiliwei in the seventh grade of conjuration, and it cannot be repelled by the lighting spell at the level of fluorescent flickering.

  Hermione has mastered it in first year, and despite being a Muggle-born and having no special "talents", she is still an excellent witch.

In contrast, Neville... Pomona sighed, she had to worry about how he got to the Scamander's, especially since Neville wasn't a student of her own house, and Minerva herself. If she doesn't pay attention, why doesn't she care about Cedric in her own academy? He is also about to enter the seventh grade, and is about to face the dual pressure of graduation and employment.

  This summer vacation is the busiest summer vacation she has ever had, especially when she thinks of being so busy after school starts, she is even more upset. And it's all Fudge's fault, not just for the Quidditch World Cup, but for the Triwizard Tournament.

   Every day feels like a holiday, and soon people will forget about Sirius Black's escape from Azkaban and the impact the Dementors have had on their lives. If the Minister for Magic was also elected by ballot, Pomona would never vote for him.

When    arrived at Graplan's office, she knocked on the door as usual, but Graplan was not at her desk.

   "Wilmina?" she shouted.

"Here!"

She walked over to the sound and found that Graplan was treating a pony in the medical room. Centaurs don't sleep like humans. Graplan spread a thick herb in the treatment room, and the pony's mother was hugging the pony. with him lying on the haystack.

   "What's the matter?" Pomona asked.

   "I was bitten by an eight-eyed spider. Fortunately, it was delivered in time." Graplan said.

  Pomona looked at the dying pony. The skin of the centaurs was different from that of humans, not so much pale as gray, a kind of death gray.

   Grapland said some centaurs to the centaurs' mother and left the treatment room.

   "What's the matter with you, Dean?"

   "I want some blue jays, and Sybil will use them for bird divination."

   "Go catch it yourself, and remember to close the door," Graplan said, returning to the treatment room.

   Pomona glanced at them and walked into the bird cage in the tropics.

  The blue jay is very similar to the soundless bird, the difference is that the blue jay is a chattering bird, and the soundless bird will only make all the sounds it hears before dying, and the rest of the time is silent.

  In this era when everyone is fighting for the right to speak, the silence bird that does not speak for itself will definitely live very badly. And the magic materials for making Veritaserum, especially the Silence Bird feathers, require a certain quality. Except for protecting the areas where animals live, it is hard to find them in nature.

  Pomona used the Summoning Charm to catch a few blue jays. After making sure that Graplan was not paying attention, she quickly walked to the next door, where the bushes with delphiniums below were the habitat of the Silence Birds.

The delphiniums are protected from harm by the ghost net that mimics the vines in the shadows, and the soundless birds hide in the canopy above the delphiniums. They are quiet, and even with bright feathers, it is difficult to hide in the bird's nest. Find.

  Pomona stepped directly on the cane of the delphinium, got close, grabbed a silence bird, and put it in the bird cage.

   Then she didn't say hello to Graplan, and left the "birdcage" with a birdcage full of blue jays.

===================================================== ===========

At the end of the 18th century and the beginning of the 19th century, there were no electric lights, but even if the light was not bright enough at first for Georgiana to see clearly, now she got closer and realized that although this Laila Brick looks very similar to Sirius Blake, he Pale skin, not as healthy as Sirius.

   Even Sirius turned pale after returning from Azkaban, unlike Brick, who had sunken eye sockets and a thin build.

   She quickly remembered the tapestries of the Blakes, the earliest one of Blakes, Lyculus, was born in 1808, and if Lyra Brick was his ancestor, then...

   "What are you thinking?" Brick asked with a smile.

   "Are you married?" asked Georgiana.

   "No." Brick still said with a smile, "and I'm not married to anyone."

   He clearly misunderstood, but she continued to ask "Why did you name Lyra, Lyra is more suitable for girls."

   "If it was a boy, what would you like to be named?" He followed her words.

   She became more and more certain that this person was not Sirius, and Sirius would not be so glib.

   "What magic did you get? Why does it look like a shadow?"

   "I was trapped, no one could see me, they either thought I was a shadow or a ghost," Brick said. "But if I were colored, people would think I was a moving mural."

   "That blood..."

   "It's a tonic, I've been stuck in it for a year." Brick said, "Thank you for saving my life."

   She suddenly remembered the Sage's Stone. In addition to turning stones into gold, that red stone can also live forever. The way to take it is to dissolve it with "water" and drink it.

   But she didn't know how to make the Sage's Stone, and she just left her lip print on the handkerchief and threw it on the ground.

   "That Yestral..."

   "You should focus on dancing and look around," Brick said as he led her around.

   She looked around at the crowd, who were all dressed up like the people at the Christmas ball, the celebration ball that Severus had nominated, or what girl wouldn't want to dance with Sirius Black?

  If the Triwizard Tournament had been held in their time, Sirius might have been one of the contestants, so...she'd have a dream come true.

  Pomona once thought that Ginny agreed to Neville's invitation because she wanted to go to the Christmas ball, but she was not old enough.

Tonks said that she liked Harry, but she thought that Harry could not like her, nor would he invite her, and Harry liked Qiu Zhang at the time, but the girl he wanted to invite the most was invited by Cedric. Now, he and Ron had to invite the Pelty sisters to "make it work".

Nash also used an example to explain game theory. If everyone invites the most beautiful girl at the dance, her female companions will not be willing to be "substitutes". If the boys invite them again, they will not agree. .

  If everyone gave up the most beautiful girl at the beginning and invited her female companions instead, then everyone would have a dance to dance, but the most beautiful girl would be alone.

   There will always be a lucky guy who can invite her, so everyone wants to be that "lucky one", even Ron wants to try if he can invite Fleur Delacour.

  Although Harry and Ron went to the prom with the beautiful school beauties, they had their own reasons, the flames in their hearts did not burn, and the four of them were not happy at that prom.

Instead, it was Hermione who danced with Victor Coolum, her fluffy curls, which she forgot to tuck because she was so busy with her studies, was so smooth that night, when she walked down the marble steps, it was amazing Stunning.

   Pomona envied her, although Hermione didn't know the old Dean had looked at her that way.

  Pomona clearly gave Severus three chances to invite her to dance, but he always thought of some weird reasons, even saying "don't waste it so much", why can't he ask Brick directly?

Everyone has regrets in their hearts. Some people regret not wearing the robe of a cardinal. Some people regret not inviting the most wanted dance partner to a dance. These regrets appear in our hearts from time to time, even if we die. Hard to let go.

   Spinning, spinning, she couldn't tell whether she was in the Hogwarts hall or the castle, in a dream or in a fantasy.

   If Sirius was knocking on her door that night, would it change?

   Maybe Albus is right, even the purest heart will be tempted by darkness, not to mention that she is not very pure at all.

   Sirius, although his surname was Black, was the brightest star in the night.

   If this is your regret, now satisfied, should you really go, Sirius?

   After all, darkness and **** are not where you belong, you belong to the light, and heaven is where you should go.
