Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard

Chapter 271 Exploring the Pensieve

The next day Sainz wrote back to his friends, telling them that he was fine, but just couldn't go to school for the time being, and that there would be a surprise waiting for them in a month.

In fact, except for the first week he was not in school, he was in school every day for the rest of the time, but he never stepped out of the Room of Requirement.

Unless it is necessary, Sai attaches great importance to his promises. He promised Old Deng that the Meditation Basin would not leave the school, and he has been following this very seriously.

After the holidays, he traveled between Hogsmeade and the Room of Requirement every day through the Vanishing Cabinet, and all his research projects were not affected much.

From a long-term perspective, the production of Space Cabinet No. 1 has the highest priority. From a short-term perspective, the research priority of the Meditation Basin is higher than the Space Cabinet.

As the saying goes, a book cannot be read unless it is borrowed!

The situation with the meditation basin is similar, it is also borrowed and needs to be returned, so it is better to figure it out quickly!

Although Old Deng did not specify a specific date for the return, if he continued to occupy the property for a long time without any self-awareness, he would ultimately be eroding his own credibility.

Except for some unusual ones, most people have a scale in their hearts, and there is a subconscious standard for interpersonal relationships. There is a dynamic balance in it. If one party only takes without adding, the favors will be like sand in an hourglass, and will leak out sooner or later.

When a favor is completely cleared, it is much more difficult to establish a connection again than the first time.

In his previous life, Sainz had a classmate who lent him 500 yuan before graduation and promised to pay it back in a few days, but he never came back to him again.

At this point, this classmate was put on his blacklist and they never contacted each other again.

They were all poor students, and his 500 yuan was saved by living frugally. He didn't know what the other party would use it for, but he lent it without much hesitation.

What the other party borrowed was not just 500 yuan, but the steamed buns and pickles that he used to eat in order to save up the 500 yuan.

Some sanctimonious bitches would say, it’s just a little money, why take it so seriously?

Sainz would say, as for!

Five hundred yuan is indeed not a lot, but no matter when, at that time period, it was 80% of his assets.

When a person is willing to use 80% of his assets to support another person, he'd better not let down this trust.

From a conspiracy theory perspective, if the other party chooses to borrow money at the time of graduation, does that mean he or she is planning on not paying the money back?

Did the other party only lend it to him?

Sainz doesn’t know and isn’t interested in knowing!

The money is not much, but it is a good deal to see a person's credibility.

Disappearing without a trace just for 500 bucks, it's hard to say who wins and who loses!

For various reasons, Sai has developed a character that values ​​promises. He never promises anything easily unless it is necessary. Once he makes a promise, he will do his best to fulfill it.

He had previously given a set of exam practice questions to several friends with the purpose of testing their credibility.

The things were not very precious, but he had put them together with great care and they were also gifts for his friends. He had agreed at the time that they could not be passed on to others, and his friends agreed.

If a friend leaks the information intentionally, it means that in the friend's mind, he is actually "not a good friend".

Since you are not good enough as friends, then there is no need to make close friends with you.

Fortunately, the few friends he chose were all very strong people, and none of them used that thing to make a profit, which also prompted him to further invest in the twins' business.

Among these people, there was one who touched him deeply, and that was Adam.

Adam's girlfriend Katie Bell will also be facing the Ordinary Wizarding Level Examination this school year. At the end of last semester, Adam would rather memorize the test content himself after each test than give her the question bank in his hand.

It was Sainz who discovered his behavior and took the initiative to tell him that there was no need to do so. As long as his girlfriend didn't use it to make a profit, there was no problem in sharing it with her.

Eighty percent of the world's problems are nothing more than human relationships and interests.

If you are strong enough in these two aspects, you will be a friend who is cherished by others.

Perhaps because of the general environment, Sainz found that most of the people around him were more willing to keep their promises, which made him very happy.

Sainz was very obedient and did not take the Pensieve out of Hogwarts. It was kept in the Room of Requirement.

After several months of careful study, I have now basically figured it out.

There are two key points about the Pensieve, and the inscription on the basin is of course a key point.

At first he was afraid that there was something special about the material of the stone basin, so he tested the material in every way he could think of. All the results showed that it was pure granite, nothing special except hardness.

The Pensieve inherits the consistent characteristics of all alchemical items in the Harry Potter world - the material of the item itself is not special.

This was good, and important, because it gave him the possibility of making his own improved Pensieve.

Apart from the issue of the basin material, another issue that needs to be analyzed is the runes on it.

Science found that he was lucky this time. Researching the Pensieve was easier than the Vanishing Cabinet because of its material.

Disappearing cabinets are made of wood, which is easier to process. They are also relatively new and more complex to process.

The meditation basin is made of hard stone, which is more difficult to process. It is also older and was processed more roughly.

The convenience brought by this situation is that the runes of the meditation basin are evenly engraved on the surface of the stone basin. They are flat and do not have the three-dimensional runes engraved deep into the stone texture as Sainz had previously imagined.

It's just a surface print, which is too friendly to the observer.

Solving the rune problem does not mean you can copy the Pensieve!

Many wizards may ignore the silvery-white substance in the basin that looks like water and smoke, but Sai will not.

You know, after the memory is extracted, it has to be stirred into "water" before it can be reproduced.

So what exactly is this substance?

Is it because the runes on the stone basin were automatically generated or gathered after being activated?

It turns out not to be!

After realizing that runes were the key, Sainz immediately made a "Pension Basin" one-to-one, even choosing the same granite as the one in Hogwarts.

He did his best to ensure that his homemade basin was identical to the original one, and no contents appeared in the basin.

Since the "water" was not automatically generated, was it added later?

If it was added later, what would it be?

Could it be a special kind of "natural treasure"?

Staring at the calm "water surface" in the shallow stone basin that looked like both water and smoke, Sainz's heart moved. He seemed to have seen similar things often!

The states are similar, and even their functions are more or less related.

He felt that he had found the direction!
