The summer in the UK is not very hot, but the temperature difference between day and night is very large. This is especially true in the Scottish plateau where Hogwarts is located. Even if there is a huge lake next to it, the temperature difference between day and night cannot be adjusted, but the humidity in the air becomes very high. night. Walking in the corridors of the castle feels cold and clammy. Fortunately, the house elves lit the fireplace early, which made the temperature in the common room pleasant.

"Isn't there an exam tomorrow? I remember that almost all the seventh graders in Gryffindor have signed up. Why are you making such a fuss tonight?" Hermione originally planned to read the book again after returning from the library, but it was a pity that everyone around The noise prevented her from looking in at all.

"Because most people just sign up to check their level, and don't think they can pass the exam." Ryan shrugged, and over Hermione's shoulder he saw Harry and Ron playing "Look, this is Ma The flying chess attached to the back of Melon magazine.

"It's not for passing, so why do they take the exam?" Hermione didn't understand the mentality of those people. "Shouldn't you go all out for every exam?"

"That's just what you think, Hermione." Ryan said helplessly. Although Hermione has changed a lot, there is one thing that hasn't changed. That is the realism on many issues. But Ryan didn't think it was a bad thing, at least in his eyes, if even this changed, then Hermione wouldn't be her anymore.

"At least the students can pass this exam to get a general idea of ​​their own level." Ryan said. "I think Hogwarts is not as good as those Muggle schools in this regard. There are various tests in Muggle schools. Mock tests let students know what their current level is, but There are no such things in the world of wizards. That is to say, all the students basically go to the exam in a daze after the review is over."

"And this test is actually an opportunity for everyone to detect where their problems are so that they can get good grades in the next test. This is why so many people still take the test knowing that they will not pass the test. "Speaking of which Ryan spread his hands. "Besides, it doesn't cost money anyway. Wouldn't it be a good idea to take one more test to gain some experience?"

"Well, you can always come up with a reason. And I think you're right, Hogwarts is indeed behind in the way of learning." Hermione closed the book, and actually passed the past few days. She has done all the preparations for the exam. It's just that out of a certain habit, she still hopes to review until the last moment.

After chatting, the two went back to the dormitory to sleep. After breakfast the next morning, Ryan waited in the foyer with a large group of Gryffindors. Soon they saw the old witch Professor Marchban and Dumbledore walking into the castle side by side.

"Albus, you look older, too. I still remember how radiant you were when you were young, and how amazing you were when you took the Transfiguration and Charms practical exams for the s exam. Performance--"

"It is indeed a memorable youth, please go this way to Professor March class." Dumbledore stretched out a hand to guide the witch in front of him. "We can go to the teacher's lounge to have a cup of tea first. The students have just finished breakfast, and it will take a little time to tidy up the auditorium."

Watching the two old men leave, many people seemed a little nervous. However, because the vast majority of people did not plan to pass the exam directly, the overall atmosphere was much more relaxed than that of the O.W.Ls exam more than a year ago.

After scanning the foyer, Lane noticed that almost all the seventh graders had come to take the exam this time.

Of course, this is expected, after all, when Voldemort announced the establishment of another Hogwarts school, the students who chose to stay here were actually equivalent to choosing a camp.

Malfoy, for example, is standing in the foyer right now, preparing to take his exams. For the Malfoy family, more than anyone now, they wanted Voldemort's defeat. Because if Voldemort does not fail, then they are absolutely dead as traitors on Voldemort's side.

Pansy Parkinson, who used to hang around Voldemort before he often went, did not stand by his side. The Parkinson family is now Voldemort's core supporter, so Pansy boarded the Hogwarts Express when he chose last time Returned to London. For the same reason, the usual Slytherin students such as Crabbe, Goyle, and Zabini did not appear in the hall. To be precise, Malfoy was the only Slytherin student who came to take the exam today.

"It was unexpected," Hermione said softly. "I always thought that Malfoy wouldn't come to school this year, but I didn't expect him to be the only seventh-year Slytherin left at Hogwarts."

"What's unexpected about this?" Ryan glanced at Malfoy, who was still pale, but looked much more energetic than last year. "I don't think there is any place in England that is safer at this time than Hogwarts Castle where Principal Dumbledore sits. Besides, as a family that puts the survival of the family first, in order to ensure the safety of the family inheritance , they will not let the current Patriarch stay with the future Patriarch."

"It's the same reason why the President and Vice President of the United States are not allowed to appear in the same place, right?" Hermione asked.

"That's why." Ryan said. "Of course it is also because of this that I can believe that the Malfoy family is now on the side of the mysterious man's resisters. This is not because they have a bright heart or are willing to fight for justice, but because they are calculated from the perspective of pure interests. Last time After our actions, in order to ensure the family inheritance, the Malfoy family has no other choice."

"We should be thankful that the mysterious man is a lunatic, or he became a lunatic after slicing his own soul. Let us now distinguish between enemies and friends is much simpler than in the records of the last war." Hermione raised her lips. Forced a smile. "Okay, time is up. I think it's time for us to enter the test."

Ryan turned his head to look at the door of the auditorium, which slowly opened inward. Like the last exam, the auditorium was filled with small tables for one person. However, different from the O.W.Ls exam more than a year ago, this time because it is a special exam for emergency situations, and there are far fewer people taking the O.W.Ls exam than the O.W.Ls exam. So the exam, which was originally a week, was compressed into three days this time.

Therefore, at 8 o'clock in the morning, take the written test of the first Charms class first, and then take the written test of the second Transfiguration class after a 15-minute break. This kind of exam arrangement gave Ryan a subtle sense of familiarity. In his previous life, the mock exams in the third year of high school were basically arranged so intensively.

After opening the test paper, Ryan found that the first question was to answer the spell for summoning water, and at the same time briefly explain the principle of the spell. This is not difficult, especially when Flitwick taught Seamus to copy the sentence "I am a wizard, not a baboon wielding a stick." This incident is still fresh in Ryan's memory. Thinking of this, he smiled slightly, bent down and began to write on the test paper. By this time Hermione was already writing furiously on her paper.

But not everyone answers questions as smoothly as they do, and it can even be said that there are only a few people who answer questions as smoothly as they do. Most people in the examination room were scratching their heads or flipping the papers back and forth, making clattering noises.

But on the whole, the students of Slytherin and Ravenclaw are better, and some Hufflepuff students can also answer the questions seriously. Gryffindor students and Hufflepuff students were the main ones who couldn't write a word after turning over the paper for a long time.

Finally, after more than four hours, the exam this morning is finally over.
