The Wizard of Hogwarts is Unscientific.

Chapter 287 An Unattainable Dream

Andy: "..."

Hermione looked at Andy with a strange expression. "Andy, you've driven her away."

"You asked too." Andy didn't want to take the blame.

Hermione proudly raised her chin. "But she answered my question. We now know that the creator of the Room of Requirement was Ms. Ravenclaw."

Andy raised his hands in surrender.

"Actually, I already have the answer to my question."

Andy analyzed, "The four founders should all have secrets passed down, but these secrets are not necessarily all in one room."

Hermione asked curiously, "Andy, are you planning to investigate these secrets?"

"Investigate if there are any leads, otherwise forget it." Andy's schedule is already full for the foreseeable future, and he has no interest in adding any new work to his resume.

Learning magic is the most important thing, and Andy doesn't want to put the cart before the horse.

Moreover, there are no clues whatsoever about the secrets of Gryffindor and Hufflepuff, and even investigations have yielded no results.

……

After reading in the library for a while, and waiting until late at night, Andy and Hermione quietly left the Ravenclaw common room.

In front of the wall of the House of Response.

Hermione raised an eyebrow and asked, "Shall we do it, or should we?"

"I'll do it!" Andy said.

Hermione nodded, then stepped aside to avoid interfering with the Room of Requirement's intake of information from the outside world.

"I want to enter the very first room of the House of Requirement!"

Andy walked back and forth in the corridor three times before the door of the Room of Requirement slowly appeared.

"It's here!" Hermione exclaimed, her little face full of excitement.

They are about to uncover the true secret of the Room of Requirement.

Andy pushed open the door to the Room of Requirement and went inside with Hermione.

"Is this what the Room of Requirement originally looked like?" Hermione looked around, her tone a mix of surprise and disappointment.

This place looks like a combination of a study and an office, with several bookshelves, a chair, a desk, and the room is decorated very ornately with many exquisite ornaments.

But these things have absolutely nothing to do with the so-called "big secret".

"I think this is probably what the Ravenclaw lady's place for studying magic should be like."

Andy touched the bookshelves built along the wall and said calmly, "Actually, you can tell from the staircase in the castle and the way the Room of Requirement appeared that Mrs. Ravenclaw's personality seems a bit... mischievous?"

"She might be a very playful person, but when she's alone, what she craves most is probably peace and quiet!"

Hermione rolled her eyes at Andy after hearing that.

Naughty?

Hermione would never admit that this was part of Ravenclaw's personality.

How could such a great witch be a mischievous person?

"I think this might be a test that Lady Ravenclaw has left for us, like the castle stairs and the Room of Requirement. We need to use our wisdom to discover the truth," Hermione said firmly.

Andy glanced at the books on the bookshelf, then casually picked one up and started flipping through it.

"Did you know? Mrs. Ravenclaw died of illness," Andy said, flipping through the book.

"Yes! I've seen it in a book." Hermione nodded, then looked at Andy with a puzzled expression.

Andy handed the book to Hermione, gesturing for her to take a look.

Hermione took the book with a curious look, flipped through a few pages, and asked doubtfully, "Is this a book of poetry and prose?"

Andy nodded. "Too much intelligence leads to a short life!"

The general public's impression of Ravenclaw is almost always that of a beautiful, intelligent, and wise woman.

The book also describes her as having a faint, mocking smile on her face; beautiful, yet somewhat intimidating.

Ridicule is not a good word.

"Haven't you noticed? There are some contradictions between what we know about Ms. Ravenclaw and some of her practices," Andy said, his tone somewhat complicated.

Hermione thought about it and it seemed to be true.

It seems unlikely that a beautiful, intelligent, proud, and even somewhat intimidating woman would design the castle staircase like that.

The book never uses the word "amiable" to describe Lady Ravenclaw.

Of course, the records in the book are not necessarily accurate.

"What did you find out?" Hermione asked, looking at Andy.

Andy shrugged and said, "I think...Ms. Ravenclaw might have depression."

Hermione: "..."

"Andy, you're going too far!" Hermione looked at Andy with a serious expression.

As a Ravenclaw student, Hermione held the house's founder in high esteem.

"Lady Ravenclaw has an extremely high pursuit of magic."

Andy said calmly, "But she's too clever. She tried to achieve her dream through shortcuts, but a lie is still a lie."

"She can't accept this reality!"

Without a doubt, what Ms. Ravenclaw pursued was the state of having her wishes fulfilled.

However, in a state of stable magic, the ability to make one's wishes come true is just a distant dream; no one can achieve this.

So Ms. Ravenclaw took a different approach; she wanted to achieve the same goal through other means.

That is, combination magic!

But smart people think a lot, know a lot, want to pursue many things, and have extremely high requirements for quality.

This is a mental torment.

In addition, her fanatical pursuit of magic caused Lady Ravenclaw to neglect her daughter. When her daughter stole her tiara, it became the final straw for Lady Ravenclaw.

We spend our whole lives chasing a fleeting dream, only to find, upon looking back, that we have neglected the most important family members around us.

This is undoubtedly a tragedy.

After hearing Andy's explanation, Hermione fell silent.

Although these were all just Andy's guesses, and the so-called evidence was all far-fetched, Hermione inexplicably felt that this might be the truth about Madam Ravenclaw.

Otherwise, Ms. Ravenclaw would not have died young.

"And what about you, Andy?"

Hermione suddenly asked, "In my opinion, the dream you want to pursue is even more unattainable than Lady Ravenclaw's dream."

"Me?"

Andy laughed heartily, "I'm cheating!"

Although Andy's cheat system isn't particularly powerful, ranking among the lowest of all transmigrators, the five attributes on the right side of the system can definitely change Andy's future.

Magic, soul, mind, thought, will!

These five attributes are definitely much more important than the five talents on the left side of the system.

This is the core of cheating!

Instead of continuing the topic, Andy said, "Let's check this room! See if there are any rare or out-of-print spellbooks or manuscripts."
