Hogwarts Crawler

"Even so..."

Eugene wanted to say something, but Adam grabbed his wrist:

"I want this credit to make the Ravenclaw wizards have a better impression of me. It has no meaning except to attract a few more customers, but I don't lack that little money."

Looking into Eugene's eyes, Adam said sincerely:

"Comparatively, you can help me more by becoming the Minister of Magic. Eugene, take this credit, and then work hard to be a good Minister of Magic!"

Although Adam has full confidence that he can push Eugene to the position of Minister of Magic at that time, it depends on Eugene himself to what he can do in the position.

"...I will."

Eugene nodded firmly.

Hufflepuffs have many characteristics, but stubbornness is not one of them. Professor Scamander, who illegally smuggled magical animals all the way on the global tour, has fully demonstrated the flexible side of Hufflepuffs.

The matter of revealing the crown should be done slowly, and the main focus is on being inadvertent, so Christmas will come as scheduled before that.

After spending two Christmases together, everyone decided not to spend this year's Christmas holiday at Hogwarts.

Cologne planned to talk to his parents and Kelly about future plans, Bernard wanted to talk to his parents about going to the safe house, Eugene wanted to go home to see his parents whom he had never met, and Adam went home just because everyone had gone home.

As for Uther...

"Adam, you won't leave me alone in the cold dormitory, right?"

Well, not to mention that it is not certain whether the rats have been solved yet, even if Uther could, it is impossible for him to go back to Egypt during these few days of vacation.

Adam had no choice but to take Uther back to the safe house, but fortunately he prepared the key to the safe house.

After the Christmas dinner, they went their separate ways. When they met again, Adam couldn't help but pay attention to Eugene's condition.

Well, it looks good. It seems that Mrs. Lauren's efforts during this period have been fruitful, and Eugene's parents haven't made any trouble.

"How was your Christmas?"

Uther was full of energy. He had eaten better these days than at Christmas dinner!

There was no other way. Hogwarts' dinner had to cater to everyone's tastes, and there were many dishes that were not convenient to put on a Western-style banquet.

For example, hot pot, grilled skewers, iron pot stewed pancakes...

Thinking back to the delicious food he had eaten during this holiday, Uther couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

Seeing his expression, Cologne knew what he was thinking. His face turned green and his lips moved a few times.

"Hmm?"

Adam noticed this and couldn't help but say:

"Didn't you all bring the pre-prepared dishes I prepared for you before you went back this time? Even if they don't taste that good after heating, they won't be that bad. Why do you look like that?"

"Don't mention it--"

Cologne couldn't help but blush:

"Kelly said that I can eat delicious food every day at Hogwarts. Keep the pre-prepared dishes for them. I've only eaten bread and jam these days. Woohoo~~~QAQ"

The last cry was so blood-curdling.

"Hiss--"

Adam couldn't help but take a breath, hugged Cologne and patted him:

"Look at how greedy you are, you've suffered so much, I'll grill you an eight-eyed giant spider later... Don't go to the auditorium for dinner, eat grilled fish in the dormitory?"

Uther and the others certainly had no objection.

Eat grilled fish first, then add soup and water to boil the grilled fish, and then add hot pot ingredients after eating the grilled fish. It is simple and delicious, and it is also a common meal in the dormitory.

That night, in the principal's office, in addition to Professor Dumbledore and Fox, a third creature who will live here permanently arrived.

"Albus, I don't seem to see the student you mentioned."

The man who spoke had gray hair and wrinkles on his skin. He was obviously old, but at this time, his hands and feet were shackled. While talking, he moved his legs, as if he wanted to cross his legs, but he couldn't do it because of the shackles.

"Adam will probably eat in the dormitory tonight, and his roommates are not here."

Professor Dumbledore sighed with some regret.

Even if he is the principal, there is no reason to eat at the students' own small kitchen in the dormitory.

"Oh? It sounds like you like him very much?"

Professor Dumbledore nodded without hesitation and showed a loving smile:

"Yes!"

"You really prefer Hufflepuff."

"This is not a preference. I like every student who respects teachers, is friendly to classmates, and is full of enthusiasm and hope for life. What's more,..."

"What's more?"

The man narrowed his eyes.

"What's more, his cooking skills are really good! Whether it's making desserts or cooking."

Professor Dumbledore smacked his lips with some nostalgia:"The dinner we had that day was from his chef's Christmas dinner."

Thinking of the dinner he had with the man in front of him on Christmas, Grindelwald raised his eyebrows and felt inexplicably better.

After chatting for a few words, Professor Dumbledore looked at Grindelwald, and the loving smile on his face disappeared, replaced by a rare coldness:

"You stay here during this time."

"I know, you said before that I will not leave you or... this little bird's sight."

Grindelwald turned his head and reached out to try to tease Fox.

However, Fox burst into fire and disappeared before being touched.

Grindelwald was stunned, remembering that he had killed a unicorn before, and it might be that this breath attracted the repulsion of the phoenix.

Although he found the reason, Grindelwald still sighed:

"It's impolite."

Professor Dumbledore, who watched Fawkes openly run to Adam to eat and drink:...

"It would be even better if I could sleep with you."

Grindelwald turned back and looked at Professor Dumbledore expectantly, but only got a cold stare as a reply.

"Okay."

Grindelwald shrugged, avoiding Professor Dumbledore's cold eyes, and leaned on the back of the chair:

"Why don't you loosen the shackles on me a little? It's really uncomfortable to sit like this. I'm just a poor old man who doesn't even have a wand. There's no need to be so vigilant against me..."

In response, Professor Dumbledore just sneered.

Even without a wand, Grindelwald is one of the most dangerous wizards in the world. Without a wand, he just needs to spend more effort when casting spells.

Not to mention that it is not difficult for Grindelwald to get a wand.

Hearing this sneer, Grindelwald lowered his eyes:

"Then at least tell me why you suddenly came to me and brought me under your nose to monitor me... It can't be that you miss the past and miss me, right?"

Professor Dumbledore fell silent.

He couldn't tell him about the Sky Garden. Besides... Although he has completely lost trust in him now, that past is indeed a beautiful memory in his life.

"... I'm dying."

Grindelwald's eyes widened slightly, and his pupils shrank to the point of a needle.
