Chapter 761: Easter Gift

~6 min read 1,158 words

Sean was going to start solving the old senior's curse.

This was a matter full of obstacles; facing the curse of senior Tom Riddle, no wizard could ensure it could be solved.

But more urgent than this was that he should rest.

From entering the Headmaster's office to destroying the Horcrux and returning to Hogwarts Castle, a whole day had passed.

After storing the Resurrection Stone with the curse, Sean went to sleep.

When he woke up, a small portion of wizards had already left Hogwarts Castle.

The Easter holiday had arrived, and students usually have a two-week break. Some young wizards can return home, and the Hogwarts Express will also be open at this time.

This train that travels between London King's Cross Station and Hogsmeade Station makes about six round trips a year.

There were also a small number of wizards who, of course, were going to Hogsmeade to play.

Now the Great Hall was full of such sounds, and everywhere people were happily discussing what to play in Hogsmeade today.

Sean was quietly unwrapping his Easter egg:

One of them was sent by Mrs. Weasley.

Beside him, the Easter eggs Harry and Luo En received were about the size of dragon eggs, filled with homemade toffee.

But Sean's Easter egg was even bigger than the table. As soon as Sean saw it, he widened his eyes slightly and looked at Bai Yi.

The snow-white owl was so tired it was motionless.

There were also some Easter eggs that seemed very interesting.

The Easter eggs from the farm hid gorgeous candy wrappers, hot pumpkin pies, and a cup of fully sealed milk.

Grandpa Ma Kusi had always been worried about the ingredients at Hogwarts.

He harbored an old idea: the ingredients raised on a large scale in Hogwarts Castle were not as good as those raised on the farm.

Grandpa Ma Kusi often boasted that the farm had the best milk in Scotland; surprisingly, the "Thames Daily" also thought so.

The farm had won competition championships, and Professor Marcus Marcus Maige said without looking up that this was because the old wizard had broken the rules and used magic.

Besides the farm's Easter eggs, Sean also received Easter eggs from the distant London suburbs, Easter eggs from Hogsmeade village... of course, the most Easter eggs came from Hogwarts Castle.

Just as Sean was unwrapping his gifts, owls poured into the Great Hall.

During the festival, there were naturally more letters.

But before long, the young wizards' discussion sounds were a bit too loud.

And it was divided into two simple factions.

The wizards about to go to Hogsmeade village were overjoyed, holding the "Daily Prophet" and running to tell everyone;

The wizards who couldn't go to Hogsmeade village were extremely disappointed, only able to look at the older students with envy.

"Sean, did you see? Merlin! Magic Hand Mirror, an epoch-making creation—"

Luo En muttered the description in the "Daily Prophet" and hurriedly handed the newspaper to Sean.

"Instant communication, covering the world, linking your life..."

Harry read those promotional slogans, having a strange sense of familiarity.

Sean took the newspaper and could clearly see that most of the "Daily Prophet" pages were occupied by a report.

【The latest masterpiece of the future greatest wizard, a miraculous creation that changes the way the Wizarding World communicates!】

【The most mysterious shop in Diagon Alley expands for the first time, entering five countries and Hogsmeade village simultaneously!】

【The best Easter gift, does your child not have a pair of Magic Hand Mirrors yet?】

The dazzling advertisements made people wonder if this was still the "Daily Prophet."

"My dad said the Ministry of Magic wants to purchase this creation extensively, but that mysterious alchemist is only willing to give the Ministry of Magic thirty copies, and claims that production capacity is limited, with only three hundred produced in the first batch—"

Luo En held the letter, marveling.

"Why do I feel..."

The more Harry looked at the photo in the newspaper, the more he felt it looked like the mirror in his hand.

"I've only heard of two-way mirrors before, but that thing is terribly expensive."

Luo En whispered.

"How expensive?"

Harry asked curiously.

"Hundreds of Galleons!"

Luo En spread his hands.

"That is indeed very expensive."

Harry and Sean expressed approval.

"I guess this must be a type of two-way mirror, at the very least it must be..."

Luo En frowned and pondered,

"Seven..."

Harry waited, and even Sean looked at him.

"Seven hundred... no, at least three hundred Galleons!"

Luo En said confidently.

"Three hundred!"

Harry was startled.

The Firebolt he dreamed of was only a few hundred Galleons.

"It might be even more! The production process and materials for two-way mirrors have been lost for a long time."

Luo En said seriously.

Harry stopped talking.

He sat down and took a mirror out of his bag.

He carefully compared the difference between the mirror and the advertisement photo in the newspaper, falling into deep thought.

"Harry?"

Luo En leaned over curiously.

"You bought one?!"

Luo En shouted.

"If I'm not mistaken, you have one too."

Harry said.

Luo En was confused, seeming to find it hard to understand whether what Harry said was English.

"Did you unwrap your Easter gift?"

Harry asked.

"Not yet, you mean..."

Luo En sensed something and hurriedly unwrapped his gift.

After a while, he incredulously picked up a mirror.

Ripples appeared on it, presenting several special figures:

Sean reading quietly, a much smaller Professor Marcus Marcus Maige, a friendly and kind badger, a chubby Neville, Luo En with two chicken legs stuffed in his mouth, and a smaller Harry.

"When could I stuff two such big chicken legs in my mouth?"

Luo En's face flushed red.

"In the Great Hall, do you remember?"

Harry tried to help him recall.

"Oh Harry, I don't want to remember."

Luo En said shamefully.

The Great Hall was in an uproar, and Sean had already left.

Professor Tela had just called him, and Sean knew it was about the Magic Hand Mirror.

His figure gradually became distant in the corridor, but after only a few minutes, he stopped and opened the Magic Hand Mirror.

Hermione's face, with pink-tipped ears, appeared on it:

"Sean!"

She said.

It seemed to be about the little Marcus Marcus Maige matter.

"Sean, Happy Easter."

The second face to appear was Jia Siting.

"Ah, Sean, God, unimaginable, it's really you! You invented the Magic Hand Mirror! And seven of them! The Ministry of Magic heard they couldn't even purchase one... oh, of course they couldn't purchase one, because it's with us."

The third and fourth were the shouting Luo En and the excited Harry.

Several people occupied a small part of the mirror surface, and then, a round face appeared, making everyone's faces smaller.

"Sean, Hermione, Jia Siting, Harry, Luo En..."

Neville greeted stammeringly, appearing very unaccustomed. ===== CHAPTER 762 =====
