Hogwarts, where the stars shine

The secret passage behind the toady Gregory can lead outside of Hogwarts. This is a happy thing for Mesa, because he can cash out the items in his hands as soon as possible.

But while walking in the dark secret passage, Mesa was thinking about the words of the Weasley twins.Although the two brothers asked Hagrid about the Forbidden Forest, they had never been to the Forbidden Forest.

In the words of the two of them, "There are still many interesting places in the castle, so we postponed going to the Forbidden Forest."

Lilia followed Mesa, holding the wand in her right hand and resting her left hand on Mesa's shoulder.Lilia looked at the back in front of her, and she suddenly discovered Mesa's cute side.

It turns out that Mesa is not omniscient and omnipotent. He also has things that he is not good at, and he also cares about face.Especially after knowing that the twins had found this secret passage in the first week of school, Mesa's pitiful look when she raised her eyes and looked at the ceiling was really rare to see.

After fussing and laughing, besides finding Mesa a little cute, Lilia also felt a little bit more heartbroken.Lilia could feel Mesa's faint sense of loss when she knew she was falling behind.

Lilia's feeling was pretty accurate. Mesa was indeed a little disappointed, but it wasn't for the reason she thought.Mesa was disappointed that he could not get more useful information from the twins.

The abnormality of the Acromantula and the nightmare that night have always weighed heavily on Mesa's heart.

In the first week of school, the Acromantulas in the Forbidden Forest were extremely irritable. They seemed to be stimulated by something.It has been a month now, nothing has happened in the school, and the spiders in the Forbidden Forest show no signs of going out.

After such a long time, the horse man's horoscope has not come true. Either the horse man is vain, or he has big plans.Mesa was more willing to believe the latter, and unknowingly he became a little worried.

Mesa is worried that something serious will happen to the school and that the school will be temporarily closed.Mesa didn't want to leave school. Although he didn't feel much warmth, Hogwarts was very important to him.

Following the slope all the way to the end, the two of them came to flat ground.They walked forward along the flat ground again. After walking for an unknown amount of time, the two of them found that there was no road in front of them, only the entrance of the cave sealed by huge rocks.

According to the Weasley twins, Mesa struck the boulders in sequence with her wand.In an instant, the boulders separated to the left and right, and bright sunlight poured into the dark secret passage.

When Mesa and Lilia walked out of the secret passage and bathed in the sunshine, the boulders behind them closed again, and it was completely impossible to see that this could lead to Hogwarts.

Looking around, the two of them were in a forest.The woods here are not too dense, and you can just see Hogsmeade not far away, as well as the towering Hogwarts Castle.

Mesa and Lilia looked at each other and began to dress up.

The two put on their knitted hats and pulled up their scarves before heading towards Hogsmeade, which was crowded with tourists.The school only allows third-year students and above to visit Hogsmeade. The two came out secretly, so it was better to keep a low profile.

Hogsmeade, the only village in Britain where all wizards live, is a picturesque little village composed of cottages and shops.

The village was founded about 1000 years ago by Hangis of Woodcroft.Hangis graduated from Hogwarts and founded this village to escape Muggle persecution.

Standing at the entrance of the village, I looked at the bustling flow of people on the street, the various shops on both sides of the street, and the huts with thatched roofs.

"Welcome to Hogsmeade, Miss Lilia Shafik." Mesa said with a smile.

"You too, welcome to Hogsmeade Village, Mr. Mesa Black." Lilia said, life always needs some sense of ritual.

The two of them did not go directly into a certain store, but first walked around the village to get familiar with the environment of Hogsmeade.

The post office full of owls, the familiar Hogsmeade station, Zuko's joke shop that boys like, Mrs. Padiff's teahouse that couples like, Fengya wizard clothing store that sells clothes, and De that sells and repairs magic equipment. Vis-Bans...

Of course, there is also the Honey Duke that Lilia longs for.

The two pushed the door open and entered. The store was crowded with Hogwarts students, and rows of shelves were filled with various products.

Lilia walked back and forth in front of the shelves, and in just a moment, her arms were filled with candies, including Mesa.Holding the pile of candies, Mesa couldn't even see the path under her feet.

Pink coconut sorbet, honey-colored toffee, sizzling honey candies, sorbet jelly balls, furry tooth mints... Looking at the posture, Lilia has great plans to evacuate Bee Duke.

When the two of them walked out of Honeydukes, Mesa had completely lost interest in Hogsmeade.

Mesa even felt that searching for the secret passage was a mistake from the beginning, and that he should have waited until the Christmas holidays.

Lilia, who was in high spirits, and Mesa, who was listless, crossed the road and walked into the famous Three Broomsticks Tavern.Almost every wizard who comes to Hogsmeade will go there to sit.

The tavern was extremely crowded, noisy, hot and smoky.A beautiful, curvaceous woman was greeting a group of noisy wizards at the bar.

That was Ms. Rosmerta, the owner of the tavern.Looking at this curvy and graceful lady, Mesa doubted the real purpose of these people coming to the tavern.

The group of wizards gathered in front of the bar most likely came not to drink, but to see the landlady!If Old Tom from the Leaky Cauldron looked like this, business would be even more prosperous!

Mesa pushed through the noisy wizards and said to Ms. Rosmerta: "A cup of hot cocoa and a cup of snail cherry syrup soda, thank you."

In fact, Mesa would rather order a glass of red currant rum, which is the Three Broomsticks' signature drink.

Not to mention whether Ms. Rosmerta will sell it to him, Lilia alone will not let him go.If Mesa dared to order a drink for herself, Lilia would dare to show her hair to him.

Wine is like a warm river. This kind of nonsense may work the first time, but it won’t work the second time.

Holding two drinks, Mesa once again squeezed through a group of old perverts and returned to Lilia's side.The two of us were seated right next to the window, so we could see the tourists coming and going outside.

After tasting the steaming cocoa and taking a look at the still-charming Ms. Rosmerta, Mesa suddenly felt that the boys in Mrs. Padiff's teahouse were pitiful.

When I was young, I didn't know how good my aunt was, and I mistakenly regarded the girl as a treasure.How can a girl as green as a flower bone compare to her mother's friends?

Lilia placed the cup heavily on the table. She didn't feel sorry for Mesa at all now.She said coldly: "Drink quickly. When you finish drinking, we will go to the Screaming Shack."

Mesa looked at Lilia in surprise and said, "Sister, what you have in your cup is soda water, and what I have in my cup is hot cocoa, it's very hot!"

Seeing Lilia's fierce look that said "If you don't drink it quickly, I'll pour it into your mouth", Mesa wisely shut up and sipped the hot cocoa in the cup one after another.

You see, she is still an aunt after all!Aunts are usually sensible, so they don't behave like girls.

When Mesa drank up the hot cocoa, Lilia hurriedly pulled him out of the Three Broomsticks, as if the Shrieking Shack had an infinite attraction for her.

The Shrieking Shack is an abandoned house.For years, villagers believed the place was haunted because of the screams coming from inside.Gradually, this abandoned old house became the most famous haunted house in the UK.

The shack looked old and dusty, with the doors and windows all boarded up.The yard was bare, with a few crooked dead trees standing alone, looking lifeless.

Mesa actually doesn't quite understand why wizards are afraid of ghosts.

Wizards have many more ways to get rid of ghosts than Muggles.No matter how scary the ghost is, it has a blood bar on it, so there is nothing to be afraid of, just do it.

But I don’t know why, wizards are afraid of ghosts.There have been rumors that the Shrieking Shack is haunted for many years, but no one has ever opened the door to take a look and see what the ghost inside looks like.

Mesa would love to do this, but before heading into the Screaming Shack, Mesa needs to be completely prepared.Moreover, the deal with Hope Edmond takes priority over the Screaming Shack.

But what Mesa was struggling with was whether to choose the Three Broomsticks or the Pig's Head Bar as the meeting place.
