Hogwarts and the Atypical Wizard

Chapter 433: The Limitations of the Pensieve

There is actually a certain logic behind Sampak's arrest. This person is somewhat of a show-off and boastful person.

Sainz didn't ride the Knight Bus very often after he became a conductor, but in those few times, Sampark left such an impression on Sainz.

I guess Sepak is talking nonsense again.

The Ministry of Magic is worried about the lack of performance, but you are walking right into their trap. Who else should we arrest?

Sainz didn't have much of a relationship with him, and after a brief sigh, his thoughts immediately turned to matters related to magic, and he remembered the limitations of the Pensieve.

The ticket collector of the Knight Bus was arrested as a Death Eater. This was mentioned in the original trajectory. Mr. Sai had some impression of it, but he couldn't remember the exact time.

Sainz once tried using a Pensieve to recall old memories, but found that it didn't help much.

This situation makes sense.

The Pensieve is not "memory tracing". The principles of the two are not the same. It allows Sai to repeatedly view the memories of his current life, but it cannot make his already vague memories of his "previous life" clear again.

To put it simply, it can save and play the memories input, but it cannot make the "non-existent" memories reappear.

For example, someone's memory has been tampered with, and a fragment of it has been deleted or modified, but the person himself is not aware of it. At this time, if this memory is extracted from his head and viewed in a meditation basin, what he will see will only be the tampered memory, not the original "real" memory.

The Pensieve is just a sophisticated and special storage-player that cannot identify the authenticity of memories, nor can it complete the memories input into it.

For example, if someone is given the number 8, but his senses are affected by the confusion spell and he sees it as 3, then when he uses the Pensieve to look at it, he can only see 3 instead of automatically correcting it to 8.

This makes sense.

Therefore, all of Sai's memories from his previous life can only be guaranteed not to fade, but he cannot "recall" everything that happened in his previous life in detail.

In the ability system he currently possesses, some things that happened before the meditation chip was made are forgotten.

Even after the meditation chip was made, it wasn't that he wouldn't forget it. It was just that he backed up his memory in time and looked through it occasionally to make sure he didn't forget it.

After all, he didn’t really master the “photographic memory”, he just got a few “personal processing terminals” that can record in real time and are easy to use. ”

Taking Sai’s current “library copying activity” as an example, he inputs 50 books per minute. Has he really acquired the knowledge in the books?

Shit!

He just turned into a tool, displaying the book in front of people's eyes so that their eyes could see the contents, but their brain had no idea what it saw.

These actions did not form knowledge in his mind, only fleeting images.

And he is just an image collector of the meditation chip.

If you want to truly understand the knowledge in it, you can only wait until you have time in the future, take out these memories and sort them out carefully. Only then can you truly understand what these books are talking about.

At that time, images were transformed into words, and words were truly transformed into knowledge.

This is a documentary. Before it is actually played, it is just a bunch of data. Only after it is played, the viewers will really know what it is about and form their own experience.

It’s just that people with poor receptive abilities need to play it at normal speed, or even in slow motion, while people with strong receptive abilities can play it at twice the speed or even higher.

Only when the "meditation chip" is built directly into the mind one day, perhaps we will be able to truly remember everything we see.

Of course, this might just be one of many ways to achieve it. Maybe one day he will develop abilities like "memory imprint" or even "memory recall". As for magic, who can say for sure?

As his thoughts were churning, the ticket seller reminded Sainz that they had arrived at Diagon Alley.

First, go to the twins' store.

"Hello, Mr. Autumn." The twin was not there, and he was greeted by a young witch wearing a magenta shop robe. She had short golden hair and an average appearance.

"Oh? Those two guys went home for Christmas, leaving you here alone to look after the store?"

This clerk has a completely different personality from the twins. Compared to them who are a bit silly, she is much more formal and she didn't even complain about the boss behind his back.

"This is my duty as a clerk, Mr. Autumn," the twins must have explained to her before, knowing that the man in front of her was also one of the bosses, "Do you have any instructions?"

Being used to the silly manners of wizards, especially the twins, Sai was a little uncomfortable with being respected so formally. "Uh... no... I mean you don't have to mind me. I'm just wandering around. Since those two are not here, I won't bother you."

"Okay, Mr. Autumn," the salesgirl said formally, "I'll tell the two Mr. Weasleys about your visit."

He was respected by Weasley, but when he came to Arya, he was inevitably criticized. He was accused of exploiting employees or something like that. Sai didn't take it to heart at all.

Instead, he ridiculed the other party for not taking a break, "Look at the twins, they are the boss, when it comes to holidays, they run faster than anyone else."

"They?" Alia looked down on the twins' attitude. "Abandoning customers so casually, what kind of work attitude is that?"

"Alia, I support them on this point," Sainz felt that she had obviously brought the Muggle way of thinking into the wizarding world. People in the wizarding world would never have any concept of professionalism. Everyone would prioritize their own comfort. "You have to work, but you also have to rest!"

Fortunately, she no longer insisted on doing everything herself, and hired two shop assistants. "Look at them."

"What's wrong?" Aaliyah was a little confused.

"Why, I guess they will most likely resign in the near future."

“No way,” Alia said, puzzled. “I pay them a lot of money.”

“Because I’m not happy.”

Sai didn't even need to use Legilimency, the unhappiness of the two shop assistants was visible to the naked eye. It was obvious that the money Alia gave them didn't make them feel happy about working overtime.

The cost of living for wizards is very low, which makes them have an "optimistic attitude towards life regardless of the occasion" and also gives them the confidence to make choices.

No matter how high your salary is, if I’m not happy with your work, I can fire you and I won’t serve you anymore!

Having said that Alia would be fully responsible, Sainz would naturally not give orders without her permission. He just explained the relationship to her.

"I suggest you learn from the twins. Running a business in the wizarding world is different from the Muggle world. There is not so much competition here, and there are no performance reviews waiting for us. There is no need to rush. Relax a little, both for yourself and for your employees."

Alia neither refuted nor agreed.

"You don't have to change anything right away. You can observe whether what I said is right or not, and then decide whether to adjust your approach. After all, I'm just talking nonsense, right?"

"Well, if they are as you say," Arya said a little dejectedly, "I will learn from the twins."
