Professor of Pharmacy at Hogwarts

Something has been wrong with Alexis lately.

This is how Christie feels.

Although there is no evidence to support it, Christie stubbornly believes that there is nothing wrong with her feelings.

Something just wasn't right with Alexis.

He always hides from himself.

Even if they had to meet, they would only say a few words, as if rushing to heaven, finish the conversation in a hurry, and leave in a hurry.

He didn't dare to look at himself seriously.

Thinking of the abnormality at home that day, Christie vaguely understood why Alexis was so abnormal.

……

Halloween is over and Christmas is coming.

Hogwarts is busy again.

Those who apply to go home, those who apply to stay in school, those who apply to go out for fun...

Professors and students have endless applications to fill out and endless expectations.

Alexis has been busy lately.

On the one hand, the small animals bought by Mundungus have been used up, and he needs to contact Mundungus to purchase some more. On the other hand, with the help of Hermione and the others, the ordinary animals part of "Magic, Potions, and Zoology" It was nearly finished and he could start thinking about publishing.

Of course, what kept him busiest was the party he had promised.

Not many people were invited to this party.

Lupine and the energetic girl Tonks, Black, Christie, Lucius and Narcissa, Arthur and Molly, Randolph, including him, there were nine people in total.

These nine people can be regarded as his team and an important part of his future plans - of course, Tonks, Narcissa and Molly are not included in this list.

But he couldn't leave the family alone on Christmas night, right?

Lupine was reasonable, but Arthur and Lucius were not. After all, they had been married for more than ten years.

This was the first time Alexis had hosted a party as a party promoter - and of course, he hadn't been to many parties.This made him unusually nervous.

This tension was relieved after Christie extended a helping hand, but what followed was another kind of tension...

…………

The intruder werewolves have been eliminated, Hagrid can put the ball into the Forbidden Forest again, and Alexis no longer has to face the risk of being roasted every time he comes to Hagrid.

The centaurs tribe to which Firenze belonged asked the question, and they seemed content to drive the werewolves out of the centaurs' territory.

It is said that divination professor Sybill Trelawney made another shocking prediction - something terrible will happen on Christmas Eve.

However, Ron didn't care about this at all. He held the book and complained to his good friend Harry, "I can't figure it out, Harry, I really can't figure it out, God, why is this?"

Because Hermione went to Alexis' office for "further study", they had not spoken much so far this semester. Ron and Harry were like two left-behind children, having to join the group to keep warm.

"Mum wrote. Yes, she wrote to me. It's amazing. She actually told me that Ginny, George, Fred, and Percy didn't have to go back this Christmas!"

"What kind of mother kicks her kids out of the house! It's Christmas night!"

Harry walked into the classroom, chose a seat in the middle and sat down, and whispered, "Mr. Alexis also has something to do this Christmas -"

Just as he was talking, he saw a familiar figure walking in the door, and he waved.

"What happened?" Ron became interested. "It won't be like last year, right?"

Last Christmas, Alexis said she had something to do and couldn't take Harry to Nurmengard for Christmas. As a result, he roasted Voldemort that night.

Harry shook his head and turned to look at the person sitting next to him.

"Malfoy, what about you? Are you going home for Christmas?"

Valley</span>Malfoy seemed to have just ran over from a very far away place. He was panting heavily at this time and shook his head when he heard this.

"My mother wrote and said that I should spend Christmas at school this year."

Malfoy said after he had regained his breath.

However, unlike Ron and Harry, Malfoy was not dissatisfied with spending Christmas at school. He was even looking forward to it.

Spreading the book open, turning to a random page, and pretending to be listening carefully, Malfoy asked enthusiastically

"what about you?"

Ron and Harry looked at each other and whispered what happened to them.

"Great!" Malfoy clapped his hands excitedly. "We can spend Christmas together! In school!"

"Maybe we could sneak out and steal a drink."

"We're not old enough to drink yet."

"It doesn't matter. I heard that Mr. Alexis sneaked out and drank alcohol when he was in first grade."

"really?"

"It must be true"

……

Malfoy was very interested in the topic of celebrating Christmas at school. He didn't have much 'work' here with Alexis, especially as Christmas was approaching and Alexis focused more on preparing for the Christmas party. After finishing the last bit of work, he simply put the three of them back.

So when Hermione happily ran back to the Gryffindor common room to find Harry and Ron to tell them the good news, she only found Ginny.

On the other side, Harry, Ron and Malfoy were gathering in the corner of the Quidditch pitch, discussing quietly how to spend Christmas.

……

When Alexis learns of Trelawney's prophecy, there are only three days left until Christmas.He hurried into the loft and found the crazy lady.

In the eyes of many people, Trelawney was just a poor liar who luckily got the position of Professor of Divination at Hogwarts because of a few nonsense words.

But Alexis didn't think so. He believed Trelawny really had the ability to predict.

"Ms. Trelawney, what exactly happens on Christmas night?"

Alexis asked.

When he came, Trelawney was drinking. When she heard Alexis' question, she hid the bottle and said mysteriously

"Professor Alexis, that is a terrible thing, terrible."

Even though she had hidden the bottle, there was still a smell of sherry cooking wine in the air, which Alexis easily recognized.

But Alexis didn't ask any further questions.

He was not here to manage Trelawney's private life, and besides, there was no rule in Hogwarts that professors were not allowed to drink alcohol.

She repeated incoherently, taking out a worn-out deck of playing cards from under the table and shuffling them. The deck of playing cards was really worn, and many of the cards had rough edges.

"Alexis, draw one."

Trelawney spread the cards on the table and gestured with his hands, just like the con men on the streets of London.

By this time, Alexis was also a little doubtful.

Lady Sybill Trelawney claims to be a descendant of the famous soothsayer Cassandra Trelawney.According to legend, Cassandra Trelawney was a famous priestess in Greek mythology. Because she offended Apollo, her predictions were always accurate, but no one believed them to be true.

This seems to be very similar to the situation of Lady Sybill Trelawney.

Otherwise, how could a fortune-teller end up in such a predicament?You know, Sybill Trelawney was hired by Dumbledore as the Divination professor at Hogwarts when she was desperate.
