A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 73 Christmas Dinner
Felix did not expect that there would be unexpected gains.

Combined with Malfoy's words, he realizes that Malfoy didn't bring the diary to school - he was just unlucky enough to pick it up after the second attack.

Now, he can finally be sure.

Felix nodded and turned to leave. He suddenly heard Luna's ethereal voice behind him——

"Christmas gift."

He turned and looked at her, "What?"

Luna said solemnly, "I suddenly realized that I haven't prepared a Christmas gift for you, and I met you too hastily." She unhurriedly checked her pockets, and under Felix's slightly weird eyes, took out A bunch of weird-looking bracelets.

She said rather regretfully, "I made it myself. I was going to make a pair." She held out her hand and offered it to Felix.

Felix didn't know why he reached for it, but he did.

Luna bounced away.

When Felix returned to the office, he still had the bracelet in his hand. He leaned back in his chair and thought carefully about how he should return the gift.

I always feel that ordinary gifts are not very suitable for her temperament...

In the end, he dug out a "Selected Collection of World Jokes" from his collection of books, and somehow he felt that it was a good match for the little witch named Luna.Watching the disappearing figure of the owl, he refocused on the new information.

Gryffindor, flaming hair, first-year freshman, these characteristics combined, he almost concluded that he was a child of the Weasley family, whose red hair was quite famous.

And he also heard his assistant mention that the youngest member of the Weasley family - Ron's sister will be enrolled this year.

So, this matter went round and round, how did it get involved with the trio again?

He recalled that he had indeed encountered a few red-haired little witches in the early days, and the locations were quite sensitive—either near Hagrid's hut, or the abandoned girls' bathroom.

Felix was thoughtful, this is another direction of investigation.He wondered who brought the diary, and whether he had any similar, redundant stock - the younger version of the Dark Lord was wary of saying a word about his relationship with Slytherin, which made his Some ideas got stuck.

It was getting dark, and Felix came to the auditorium.From a long distance, he saw the colorful and beautifully decorated venue. In addition to the ones he saw in the morning, there were more than a dozen floating lanterns near the ceiling, constantly throwing colorful lanterns from the gap that looked like a mouth. fireworks.

He saw the figure of the trio, one of which was Ron waving excitedly at him - Felix guessed it might be the reason for the gift he had given him, but before he could think about it, Dumbledore was greeting him and he walked over .

The Headmaster is dressed very formally tonight and it's fun.His long beard was tied with purple and red ribbons in the shape of a gourd. "Happy holidays, Felix."

"You too, Headmaster Dumbledore."

Dumbledore blinked and said in a low voice, "I received your gift. It's very unique. I haven't had time to read that book, but I know it's worth reading just from the name."

"Glad you like it."

With a burst of "crackling" Filipard fireworks resounding through the auditorium, the banquet officially began.

As the principal, Dumbledore led the crowd to sing a few cheerful Christmas carols, and then announced with a smile, "Eat as much as you want, and fill your stomachs."

Various shapes of delicacies appeared suddenly, including roast turkey, small sausages, gravy, pork chops, kidney pie, peas with butter, baked bread, etc., which were extremely rich.

The little wizards huddled together, and the forks passed across the dining table, bringing out afterimages.

Felix also put aside all kinds of troubles and ate happily.

Hagrid recommended him a special eggnog made by Hogwarts. Felix tasted it. It was sweet and sour, but not very alcoholic. He drank a few more glasses.

Lockhart on the side shook his head, his wavy curly hair trembling.

Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore were talking in a low voice, laughing "giggle" from time to time.

After eating seventy percent full, everyone finally had time to chat, and the sound of "buzzing" echoed in the auditorium.Felix picked up a piece of raisin pudding with a fork and stuffed it into his mouth. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw his assistant leading the two little wizards tiptoe out of the auditorium.

Interesting, are they going to do something?

On the other end, Hermione held up two chocolate cakes and announced her plan, "I've put ordinary stun potions in here, you just have to make sure Crabbe and Goyle find them - they'll eat them, wait When they fall asleep, you pull out a few hairs of both of them, and hide them in the broom cupboard."

Ron and Harry looked at each other, they felt that there were various loopholes in this plan.Ron asked her, "What about you, Hermione?"

"I've got mine! Remember the Dueling Club? Millicent wrestled me and I fought back... Anyway, I got her hair."

Hermione left to see what was going on with the Polyjuice Potion, leaving Harry and Ron to complete the task.

"Honestly, I don't think it's going to happen," said Ron sullenly.

Harry didn't hold out much hope either.

But they could only shrink in the shadows, staring intently at the door of the auditorium.

After a while, the bored Harry asked Ron in a low voice, "When are you going to ask Professor McGonagall for leave?"

"The sooner the better," said Ron without hesitation. "I can't wait to get a new wand. Professor Happe is so sweet!"

Felix simply and rudely sent him seven Galleons and a note that briefly read "Noticing that your wand is damaged, I suggest you buy a new one, otherwise you will not be able to attend the dueling class next semester Already. Another: count it as a reward for your courage."

What Harry got was a copy of "Duel Book", which was one of the reference books that Felix used to write dueling class textbooks.

Therefore, the two also knew that Professor Heppe had taken over Lockhart's dueling club, they had discussed it privately, and they both looked forward to his courses.

"I just hope the new dueling class doesn't have Snape in it," said Harry hopefully.

The dinner has lasted for more than an hour, and the little wizards left one after another. Felix is ​​still talking to Professor Flitwick about the magic manuscript he sent, "That ancient magic is very interesting, it's a bit like the combination of the reduction spell and the enlargement spell. body."

Professor Flitwick said, "It is said that these two curses evolved from it. I did see some similarities, but it may also be a coincidence."

The two decided on a time, and they planned to wait for Felix to study for a period of time before conducting detailed academic discussions.

In the noisy atmosphere, Felix's first Christmas dinner at Hogwarts as a professor came to an end.
