Chapter 5 Photographic Memory (Revised, Typos Have Been Corrected)
After meeting Lun and Daisy, Owen took the whole family to say goodbye to the Weasleys formally.
"Alan, we need to keep in touch frequently, but my owl Errol is a bit old, please don't reply immediately, let him rest for a while." Ron was reluctant to part with the little friend he just made, this new friend It's so cool.
"Okay, Ron." Allen dealt with this over-enthusiastic new friend somewhat perfunctorily.
Alan, who seemed silent on the way back, was even more excited than when he went to Diagon Alley. Regarding the sudden appearance of the Xueba system, he felt like he had bought a new toy, and he couldn't help but want to play with it for a long time. This The Xueba system will definitely become the biggest boost to his current growth.
Back home, the first thing the couple Owen and Morgan Le Fay did was not to place the expensive broomstick, but to look at their young son with concern.
"Alan, I know you love to read books, but I didn't expect you to be so good at it quietly!" Mr. Owen tried hard to recall his son's usual habits on the road, but he obviously remembered the few times Alan read books. The wrong brain supplement has increased a lot of false times.
"Alan, I've never seen you so powerful. How did you know that knowledge before you even went to school? Did you know the answer in advance?" Lun was very surprised. He never felt that his younger brother He will have the talent to learn more than himself.
"Alan, how did you do it?" Morgan Le Fay stroked his youngest son's hair, and then carefully smoothed it out for him.
"Mom, Alan is usually smart, he just doesn't show it like Lun, usually only Alan can answer all my questions, even Lun can't, I already knew that no question can stump Alan! "This is Emily who believed in her brother unconditionally, but she was too young to think that other people were just annoyed by her questions and deliberately pretended not to be able to answer to avoid her continued pestering.
"I don't think Allen will know the answer in advance, after all, he can't go to Diagon Alley by himself, and the topic this time is not recorded in ordinary wizard books, but rather like the content taught in Muggle studies class , Alan, is this taught in a Muggle school?" Owen dragged Alan's face with both hands and looked at it for a while, then patted his face, "Daisy and the others have no chance, maybe Should Emily also be sent to school?"
"I don't want to go to a Muggle school!" Emily quickly vetoed her father's proposal, and then flirted with Owen, "Dad, I want to stay with you at home."
"Alan, when did you become so good? After school, you will surpass Lun, give him some color." Daisy, the eldest sister, was often teased by Lun about her grades, although she was born in Ravenclaw and her grades were not good. It's passable, but obviously there is still a certain gap with the top student Lun, and she focuses more on her own interests.
Allen has been silent all the time, because he just heard the beep from the University Bully system when he got home.
It was the female voice of the system who was so dazed that it made people feel a little unreliable: "Congratulations to the host, you have completed the novice trial task and successfully won the super prize. The system will reward you with a lucky draw and a copy of "Spell Application Strategy"."
"Excuse me, host, do you want to draw a lottery now?"
"Of course." Allen thinks that there are problems with these systems. What kind of people will keep the prizes and don't draw them. You must know that after obtaining these prizes, even some equipment and props will take time to use proficiently. Not to mention some intellectual abilities that may take a lot of effort to learn and master.
A giant roulette appeared in his mind, with seven colors of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, blue and purple on it. The areas corresponding to the seven colors decreased in order, and the bronze pointer was facing the middle of the top of the roulette.
"Start the lottery draw." The pointer rotated rapidly. "Stop!" The pointer stayed at the purple position with the smallest area.
"Luck!" Alan was actually a little surprised after jumping in his heart,
The purple area is the smallest, and it must represent the richest rewards, "...at least judging from this body, it is indeed a real European..."
A purple treasure chest popped out. "Open." A line of golden text slowly appeared above.
"Constant ability photographic memory!" Allen asked the system in surprise, "Do you remember everything you have seen?"
"The current state of the host can only bear the elementary memory. It allows you to remember any text you have read."
"Only for text? Including hieroglyphs?"
"As long as it meets the basic standard of writing, it's fine."
This is a very practical ability for Alan who is about to go to Hogwarts. Alan knows very well how much time this can save him in the learning process, and it will allow him to start ahead of others. The little wizard and well ahead of Neville Longbottom...
"Maybe we paid too little attention to you, and didn't know that my son is much better than we know!" Father Owen held Alan's hand, with a look of self-blame.
"Dad, I actually like reading books, because my memory is very good. I can remember the written text several times, although you may not have noticed, but in fact, I occasionally peek at the textbooks of my brother and sister. .” Alan followed his father’s wrong memory and expressed his explanation that he had been brewing for a long time.
"What?! You peeked at my textbook!" Daisy realized that she had yelled after yelling. She was a little worried that her second-year graffiti would be seen by her younger brother.
"Wow, it's incredible." Emily ran back to the room excitedly, and ran out again in a "thump, thump, thump".
"Alan, try this book and prove it to them." The petite Emily hugged the book with difficulty, although in fact this book was not thicker than the others.
""The Tales of Beedle the Poet"." Allen, who had heard of this storybook before, opened the cover with great interest.
"Just the "Legend of the Three Brothers"." Emily turned the book to a story that she didn't quite understand, because she had asked Alan to read many stories like "Fountain of Fortune" to her time.
Allen browsed the story quickly, feeling as if each word was being scanned into his mind.
After reading it only once, Allen was about to return the storybook to Emily, but before the little sister took it, he realized that it was a test and handed the book to the eldest sister Daisy, and then He began to recite: "Once upon a time, there were three brothers who were traveling on a secluded path. It was almost dusk, and they walked and came to a river. The water was too deep to wade through, and it was too dangerous to swim across. However, , the three brothers are proficient in magic. With a wave of their wands, a bridge appeared on the treacherous water. When they reached the middle of the bridge, a hooded figure blocked their way..."
Allen's relatives were stunned. From Daisy's excited and jumping expressions, it can be seen that although there are not many words in this article in this collection of stories, Allen must have read everything verbatim. up.
Unexpectedly, the most potential person in the family is Alan who usually has no sense of presence.
"The third child lived until he was very old, finally took off the cloak of invisibility and handed it to his son, then greeted death like an old friend, and happily left the world with him as an equal. "
Allen successfully recited the story, and the memory fused with the deity made him look at his excited mother Morgan Le Fay: "Mom, I'm thirsty."
"Oh, of course. Oh, dear, you've been talking for so long!" Morgan Le Fay waved his wand, and the kettle automatically flew to the sink, and the clear spring in the water pipe flowed into the kettle, and the kettle automatically flew to the stove , The raging flame burns automatically under the stove. Even when excited, she can skillfully cast silent spells with her wand-especially in these household magic.
"Praise Merlin, Alan, you really make mom proud." Morgan Le Fay stroked Alan's hair lovingly, messed it up, and combed it carefully again, "This is too slow, Alan, you Go get a few bottles of pumpkin juice yourself, don't drink too much and spoil your stomach."
"Okay, mom, let me get a bottle for Emily too." Allen jumped off the chair, recalling the mother in front of him with some amusement. He and Emily, the two youngest, would not have been allowed to drink in the past. Children's behavior of drinking beverages before meals.
"It's so late, you must be hungry. Daisy, come and help. I think we should make it richer, make a beef kidney pie, haggis pudding..." Morgan Le Fay walked to the kitchen and dragged away After Allen recited it, Daisy looked relished because she was holding the storybook in her hand.
And Owen and his second son, Lun, have already surrounded the broomstick "Neptune", talking endlessly about the maintenance methods of the broomstick.
What pure-blood wizard could resist the allure of a top-of-the-line broomstick? Even Allen, who has merged with memory, is passionate about this sport, especially after personally trying the comfort of the excellent cushion charm enchanted on this broom.
The little sister Emily, who has been favored by a bottle of pumpkin juice, still surrounds Ellen asking this and that. She thinks her brother is more magical than magic.
After eating and drinking enough, lying on the bed, before falling asleep, Alan couldn't help thinking: "What a beautiful day. Besides, it feels great that my sister is closest to me!"
