Hogwarts, where the stars shine

On this day, another battle broke out in Room 16, the rear room of the Leaky Cauldron.

Early in the morning, the industrious little desk clock started working, firing its parts mercilessly.

The flying parts accurately hit Mesa's forehead, shattering his sleepiness and rudely waking him up from his sleep.

Furious, Mesa sat up and pointed his ebony wand directly at the small clock.A levitating spell was shot, and the small clock floated straight to the roof of the shed, unable to eject parts anymore.

Although he was still a little sleepy, Mesa was still very restrained and did not directly use the crushing spell to greet him.After all, if you break something, you have to pay for it. God knows whether the profiteer Old Tom will open his mouth like a lion.

In order to prevent himself from going bankrupt early, Mesa had to tolerate the small desk clock again and again, treating it as an annoying alarm clock.

Mesa got out of bed, washed briefly, and changed her clothes.According to normal circumstances, he should have walked out of the room to look for food at this time, but when Mesa held the door handle, he stopped in place as if under a restraining spell.

Something seems wrong. Did I just cast a spell with my wand?

Mesa looked up at the ceiling. The small clock was still floating on the ceiling, and he was struggling to recover the parts one by one in preparation for waking Mesa up again tomorrow morning.

According to the "Reasonable Restraint of Minor Wizards Act", minors are prohibited from using magic outside of school.This rule is enforced by the Office for the Prohibition of Misuse of Magic at the Ministry of Magic.

Last summer, although Mesa also cast spells outside school, he did not enter Hogwarts at that time and was a preschooler.Children under preschool age or without wands are not within the scope of the "Restraint Act".

This summer, even though no one else was watching, Mesa wasn't taking any chances.

In order to restrict minors from casting spells outside of school, the Ministry of Magic has set up tracking wires for monitoring. It is said that it can provide real-time feedback on whether the monitored person uses a wand to cast spells.

It is precisely because of the existence of disgusting things like traces that Mesa almost went crazy over the past few days.From time to time, he would cry out bitterly: What do I need this iron rod for?

But just now, the confused Mesa subconsciously used the wand, but he was not warned by the Ministry of Magic.Could it be that we let the warning letter fly for a while longer?

With all kinds of speculations in mind, Mesa went downstairs to have breakfast, but the owl from the Ministry of Magic did not come.After breakfast, Mesa walked onto the streets of Diagon Alley again, but the owl still didn't come.

The Ministry of Magic and the Leaky Cauldron are both in London, so this owl flies a little too slowly!

Mesa shrugged indifferently, walked into Flourishes and Blotts Bookstore with several blank stares, and began his day of study.It's just that today Mesa didn't read the magic book, but studied the laws of the magic world.

It wasn't until the sun turned west that Mesa left Flourishes and Blotts Bookstore with several blank stares.In a flash, he spent another day in the bookstore, but the owl carrying the warning letter still did not appear.

I feel that the warning letter will not come. I seem to have found the bug in Zongsi.Mesa thought as she ate her dinner.

Under Old Tom's astonished gaze, Mesa devoured everything on his plate, then ran up the stairs as if a monster was chasing him.

Back in Room 16 on the second floor, the small clock was still floating in the air. This was Mesa's "evidence" of casting spells outside the school.

Mesa paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, thinking about possible loopholes in Trace Silk and safe ways he could cast spells outside of school.

Through today's day-long study of the Restraint Act, Mesa believes that there are two main reasons for prohibiting minors from practicing law outside of school.

First, there is a certain danger in underage wizards practicing magic outside of school, especially without guidance; second, underage wizards are restricted from casting spells in front of Muggles to reduce the risk of exposure to the magical world.

Based on the two reasons summarized, no matter which one of them it is, Mesa feels that the "Restraint Act" is more restrictive to young wizards of Muggle origin.

Compared with pure-blood and mixed-blood wizards, Muggle-born students do not have magical elders in their families, and their parents cannot guide them when using magic spells.

Moreover, Muggle-born students live in Muggle communities and are surrounded by Muggles.When they cast spells outside of school, they are likely to be seen by Muggles and cause unnecessary trouble.

Based on this, Mesa found two possibilities for why he did not receive the warning.

The first possibility is that the casting location is different.Mesa was a floating spell cast in the Leaky Cauldron. This was the territory of the wizarding world, so there was no risk of exposure.

The second possibility is the casting location.Unlike the young wizards living in the Muggle community, Mesa was surrounded by wizards. Even if he used a spell, Trace couldn't tell who the caster was.

It is possible that Zong Si is not as smart as he thought.This was Mesa's idea after wandering around for a long time. He believed that Trace Silk should only have the function of recording and feedback.

When magic fluctuations occur around minors, Trace will record the time, location, and spells, and then feed the information back to the Ministry of Magic in real time.

The Misuse of Magic Office will use the recorded information to decide whether to issue a warning to an underage wizard.

If it is a pure-blood (mixed-blood) young wizard, since there are other wizards around them, there is a certain chance that traces will be falsely reported.That way, there's a good chance they won't be warned.

If they are young wizards of Muggle origin, there is a high probability that they live in a place where there is only one wizard, so there is no possibility of false alarms.Once you receive feedback from Tracer - warning, must be warned!

Thinking of this, Mesa immediately took out a pen and paper, sat at the table and started writing a letter.One was for Lilia and the other was for Shawn Hart.

Mesa needs two friends to help him conduct an experiment to determine whether underage wizards who cast spells will receive a warning from the Ministry of Magic when other wizards are nearby.

After writing two letters, Mesa walked out of the room with satisfaction and asked the bar owner Tom to borrow an owl.

After sending away the owl that carried his hope, Mesa walked onto the brightly lit Charing Cross Street.He is not just going to be a prowler on the street, but is preparing for his own street performance.

It is impossible to work part-time, and it is impossible to work part-time in this life.Since I have no capital to do business, I can only rely on a little bit of craftsmanship to survive.

Having said that, the Birmingham lockpicking king did not return to the arena. Mesa's performance was very serious - close-up magic.

On the first day of vacation, in addition to visiting Flourish and Blotts Bookstore, Mesa also went to the Jumping Magic Joke Shop.

In this joke shop, Mesa purchased gadgets such as magic playing cards.The prices of these small commodities are low, and their sales volume is far inferior to high-end products such as Dr. Libre's automatic ignition and magical fireworks that bloom when water appears, but they are enough to fool Muggles.

What could be simpler than performing magic tricks with magic playing cards?

But Mesa wasn't going to fool the Muggles with cards tonight, he wanted to play something big and die!

After several Muggles gathered around him and received some free gifts, Mesa's big show began immediately.I saw Mesa walking towards a lady who seemed to be generous, and put her empty left hand in front of her.

Mesa said softly: "Beautiful lady, I really want to give you a gift tonight, but there are still some necessary elements missing. So... can you blow a breath?"

It's a very corny opening statement, but Mesa has a very good appearance. No matter how corny it is, people will buy it.

The lady holding the book came forward, blew gently into the clasped hand, and then retreated to her companion with a shy look on her face.I don't know why she is so shy.

"Thank you very much for your generous help." Mesa said with a smile. With his smile, the lady holding the book became even more shy.

As he spoke, Mesa slowly opened his empty hand, and a flower suddenly bloomed in the originally empty palm.This flower seems to have just been pinched from the branch, and it is extremely delicate and beautiful.

The women surrounding Mesa suddenly felt their hearts swaying, and all of them took out their wallets...

Just when someone was performing tricks with his bare hands on the streets of Charing Cross to make a living, an owl flew into the window of Room 16 of the Leaky Cauldron.

This owl isn't from the Ministry of Magic, but it's disrupting summer vacation in Mesa.
