Chapter 5 - Chapter 145 Repairing the broomstick, Harry wants to learn something new

Yes, Lupin also sees Zicomo as a mysterious being from the East.

Ever since Zicomo showed off his giant shrieking guardian Patronus on the Quidditch pitch, the professors had been asking Snape for news.

They were all curious how Snape had taught such outstanding students, and whether he could teach them too.

Snape had no choice but to bring out Zicomo's life story, and said that it was Zicomo's own talent and had nothing to do with his teaching.

So now all the professors at Hogwarts know the identity Zicomo made up for him.

Not only that, but this matter was also passed on to the school board by a professor with a big mouth-because there were members of the school board watching the Quidditch match at the time, and they also saw Zicomo's spirited guard.

Out of curiosity, people on the school board naturally inquired about Zicomo. So things got out like this.

As for who Professor Big Mouth is, of course, it is our Professor of Conservation of Magical Creatures, Hagrid.

Of course all this Zicomo didn't know yet.

He was holding Harry's broom at the moment, trying to fix it.

Zicomo first carefully observed the damaged parts of the broom, for which Zicomo even used "zero zero three" mental power.

The flying broom is really a product of alchemy. The magic pattern related to flying is engraved on the special broom to achieve the effect of flying.

Zicomo used his mental power to detect the magic pattern on the broom, and he planned to repair it in the simplest and roughest way.

After the detection, Harry and the others saw Zicomo take out his wand and stare at Harry's broom with a serious expression.

Just when everyone thought that Zicomo was going to use some earth-shattering magic, Zicomo chanted a spell.

"Fixed as ever!"

Yep, that's how Zicomo fixed it.

Generally speaking, the magic of repairing the original can't work on the broom, because the magic pattern on the broom will interfere with the function of repairing the original.

Even if the flying broom is broken, the magic pattern on it does not work, and the best effect that can be achieved in repairing it is just repairing the flying broom, and its inner magic pattern is still broken.

But Zicomo's repair was different from the beginning. The vast spiritual power allowed him to perform micro-level operations, and he could even repair the runes in the broom.

As Zicomo's voice fell, the broken parts of the broom began to splice together on their own, and the cracks gradually disappeared.

Looking at the broom in his hand, Zicomo thought to himself, did he save Sirius some money?

In the original book, I heard that Harry's broom was broken, and Sirius bought Harry the latest Firebolt for a full 5,000 gold Galleons.

"Okay, try it."9

Zicomo threw the broom to Harry.

"Uh, Zicomo, are you sure?" Harry asked cautiously.

"I know what you're trying to say. Repair as usual can't work on magic items, but that depends on who's repairing spell. Try it, you won't be disappointed." Zicomo said.

Harry nodded, choosing to trust Zicomo.

He stepped on the broom, kicked his legs and ejected the whole person.

The familiar feeling made him feel like he was back when he first rode the broom,

Lupin looked at Harry flying into the sky, but asked Zicomo, "How did you do it?

"It's very simple, just repair the magic pattern on the broom together.

Zicomo's tone was light as if he was talking about what he had eaten for the evening.

However, Lupin knows that it is not easy at all, first you need to be familiar with the magic pattern arrangement on it, and secondly you need to use tools.

There is no concept of industrialization in the wizarding world. Every broomstick is handmade and carefully manufactured by masters in this field. If something goes wrong, it has to be repeated.

That's why broomsticks can sell for thousands of Galleons in the wizarding world.

Harry also came back from the test flight at this time, he looked at Zicomo and said gratefully: "Thank you, Zicomo!"

He is really grateful for Zicomo.

Not just because Zicomo fixed his broomstick, but because he was saved from the Dementors at a Quidditch match.

Zicomo waved his hand indifferently, and said, "It's you who cares about the little things, so let's play less Quidditch.

In the first year, the broom was cursed out of control, in the second year, the Quaffle was cursed out of control, and in the third year.

Nothing gets out of hand, and you end up with a Dementor.

I'm afraid you'll die on the Quidditch pitch someday."5

Lupin also didn't expect that Harry had so many accidents in Quidditch matches. As if he had inherited the talent of his father James, trouble would keep coming.

"Thank you for your concern Zicomo, but I still want to keep playing, at least during school I'm not going to quit the Quidditch team, after all, that's where my father was," Harry said.

Zicomo shrugged his shoulders, without much persuasion, he just said it casually.

"By the way, since you mentioned your father, I think there is something that should be returned to its original owner.

Zicomo took out a piece of parchment and handed it to Harry.

After Harry took it, he looked at the blank parchment in his hand and asked in confusion, "What is this?"

"Let's leave this question to our Mr. Moon Face to answer. 35 Zicomo looked at Lupin and said.

At the mention of the name, memories of the past flooded into Lupin's mind, and he also knew what the familiar parchment in Harry's hand was. It was the Marauder's Map that he and Harry's father made when he was a student and used for mischief.

It's been a long time since Zicomo had it in his hands, and he's already had a solid grasp of the technology on it. As long as he wants, he can make another copy at any time.

As for this Marauder map made by the James Potter group of four, Zicomo chose to return it to its original owner and let Harry play it.

"Professor, do you know what this is?"

Harry's voice brought Lupin back to his senses, and he took the Marauder's Map from Harry and said in a slightly nostalgic tone: "Of course I know what this is, after all, I was one of the makers of this item back then.95

After speaking, he took out his wand and tapped it on the parchment, saying, "I solemnly swear that I have no good intentions."

Ink marks on the parchment revealed a top-down view of Hogwarts, with names and footprints constantly moving on it.

Lupin showed Harry, "The Marauder's Map, a magic item I made with your father, Sirius, and... Peter Pettigrew, which records the entire Hogwarts terrain and the secret passages we found. .Did not expect you to know about it."5

That last sentence was clearly addressed to Zicomo.

Zicomo spread his hands and said, "Moon face, big feet, worm tail, prongs, obvious features, aren't they?"

Harry asked with some doubts: "What do these four nicknames mean?"

"Huh? Didn't Sirius tell you? Zicomo said, "These four nicknames are their own characteristics. The prong is your father, and his Animagus is a stag with a fork. corner.

Wormtail refers to Peter Pettigrew's mouse tail, and Bigfoot refers to Sirius. As for why Professor Lupin has the moon face, do you think Snape started with the werewolf when he gave Professor Lupin a substitute class?

Harry suddenly realized that he finally understood why Lupin always took a few days off each month, and he also understood why Boggart would turn into a moon when Lupin stood in his way.

Harry stared at Lupin and asked, "Professor are you... a werewolf?"

Lupin nodded with a wry smile, and told Harry his story.

In fact, there is nothing to say, roughly because his father offended the werewolf leader Fenrir Greyback, out of revenge Fenrir broke into Lupin's house and bit him when he was young.

Lupin obviously didn't want to talk about it too much, so he brought the conversation to the experience of how the foursome practiced Animagus.

Harry said excitedly after hearing this that he was going to learn this too.

F*ck Gus, who had met Professor McGonagall before, was simply amazed. Now learning that his father was an Animagus, plus witnessing the transformation of Hermione's Animagus. Harry was full of longing for this magic at this time.

"Hermione, can you teach me Animagus?" Harry asked.

Hermione spread her hands and said: "My Animagus was done with the help of my cousin, if you really want to learn 1.0, you can ask him. 99

Harry looked at Zicomo again, but Zicomo shook his head cruelly.

"Animagus, don't even think about it. This requires transfiguration to reach a certain level. Obviously, you are not qualified. What's more, your Soul Guard hasn't fully learned it yet."

Harry inherited the looks of his father James Potter, inherited his father's Quidditch talents, inherited his father's troublesome physique, but not his father's transfiguration talents.

His talent in this regard can only be regarded as mediocre, and there is still a long way to go before he can perform Animagus.

Just when Harry was disappointed, Zicomo added another sentence: "Of course if you really want to learn, you can ask Professor McGonagall, she is an expert in this field and knows how to quickly reach the standard of learning Animagos.

As for whether Professor McGonagall would help him, that was out of Zicomo's consideration.

He was Harry's friend, not Harry's nanny, so it was okay to help him, but it was impossible to help him solve everything.

Harry nodded and decided to ask Professor McGonagall later.

Hopefully he won't be deterred by Animagus' harsh conditions.
