Chapitre 77: Chapter 77 Plan
"Eisen, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting!" Arthur said, looking a bit embarrassed when he saw Eisen sitting in the corner.
"Oh, it's no problem. I was just looking around Hogsmeade before coming here, so I didn't wait long." Eisen gestured for Arthur to sit down, not making much of it.
"By the way, in your letter, you mentioned an equipment issue. What's the situation?" Eisen asked directly, skipping any small talk.
Arthur looked slightly taken aback by Eisen's bluntness, but then nodded with a smile and began explaining his predicament.
After their conversation, Eisen understood Arthur's issue. It turned out to be a misunderstanding caused by Eisen's unclear instructions. Arthur, in his free time, had researched Muggle theaters and learned that they required film projectors and tapes to screen movies—equipment only available in the Muggle world. However, due to a previous incident where he had enchanted a Muggle car, Arthur was being watched by the Ministry of Magic, making it impossible for him to acquire the projector.
Realizing the root of the problem, Eisen sighed. All of this could be blamed on Ron and Harry. If they hadn't flown the enchanted car to Hogwarts, Arthur wouldn't have been fined 50 Galleons or caught tampering with Muggle objects. Now, because of that, he couldn't obtain a film projector.
Eisen thought about asking his father's company to purchase the equipment, but that seemed like too much trouble. Then an idea struck him, and he almost slapped himself for not thinking of it sooner.
He didn't need a full film setup to share Muggle movies. A simple VCR, some tapes, and a television would suffice. With these, he could still bring Muggle movies to the wizarding world, meeting the current needs without requiring complex equipment.
Eisen shared his idea with Arthur, confident it would work well.
"But wait," Arthur frowned, "Diagon Alley is filled with magic. The TV might not function with all that magical interference."
"Then let's keep the VCR and TV in the Muggle world and use a two-way mirror to transmit the screen into Diagon Alley," Eisen suggested. "For example, if we want to show a movie every night at a set time, I could have my father arrange a room where the movie starts at the same time each evening. We'd place a two-way mirror opposite the TV there, and a second one in the Diagon Alley shop. Then we could use magic to project the mirror's image onto a screen or wall in the shop."
This approach would allow them to achieve the desired result without complicated equipment.
After discussing this in detail, they agreed on the plan.
The two then split up to handle their respective tasks. Each took a two-way mirror; Arthur went to rent a shop in Diagon Alley, install his mirror, and apply protective enchantments. Meanwhile, Eisen returned to his family's film company, setting up a basement screening room where Muggle movies and documentaries would play nightly. He arranged for the two-way mirror and took additional security measures to prevent detection of the connection.
To safeguard against unexpected issues, Eisen left an "∞" magic mark on his mirror. If anyone attempted to travel from Diagon Alley through the mirror, he would sense it and could break the connection instantly.
With a clear plan, Eisen finished his tasks quickly and returned to Hogsmeade by six o'clock.
After reuniting with Arthur, they discussed details like the showtimes and ticket pricing for the movie screenings. Eisen, however, left these logistics to Arthur. The movies would play at seven each night, but Arthur could decide how often to broadcast them in Diagon Alley and set the ticket prices based on wizarding standards.
Only after finishing their tasks did Eisen remember that Hermione had agreed to work for him. But with the company's setup, it felt more like a placeholder than an actual business, with no role for Hermione as an employee. The whole situation struck Eisen as both amusing and slightly embarrassing, but he decided to leave it for later.

Time, as always, passed quickly.
Over a month had gone by since Eisen parted ways with Arthur and returned to Hogwarts. Hermione continued her studies diligently, which improved her spellcasting. Meanwhile, Harry's frequent Quidditch practices left him exhausted yet fulfilled, even as he occasionally heard the unsettling voice of the basilisk.
By October, a cold wave hit, and many staff and students at Hogwarts came down with the flu. Fortunately, Madam Pomfrey's refreshing potion worked well, though it caused smoke to stream from the drinker's ears for hours afterward.
Ginny had also been looking unwell, and Percy even gave her a dose of the potion. However, because the flu was so widespread, no one noticed that Ginny's problem wasn't actually an illness.
Eisen, of course, knew her symptoms were due to the influence of Voldemort's diary. Yet, his focus was elsewhere, as he had developed a new theory on advanced Apparition after studying human body transformation.
To make progress on this, Eisen temporarily reduced his study time in alchemy.
Finally, on the eve of Halloween, with the help of Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, and Professor Flitwick, Eisen cleared the last hurdles to creating his enhanced version of Apparition.
Later that night, after the students had returned to their common rooms, Eisen eagerly arrived at the Charms classroom.
Dumbledore and the others were already waiting. Even though the enhanced Apparition spell had been prepared, they wanted to oversee its first attempt, as Apparition required careful supervision to prevent potential accidents.
