The Lonely Dragon of Hogwarts

The security level of the Potions Office is much higher than that of the Burrow.

No, it should be said that there is no security at all at the Burrow.

The installation team sent by John secretly used magic to build a large greenhouse outside the Burrow, and neither the Weasleys were able to discover it.

The Potions office was different.

The various anti-theft mechanisms and magic inside are enough to resist most thieves and naughty students.

And the closer to Snape's bedroom, the higher the security level.

The only person in Hogwarts who was willing to give Snape a Christmas gift and deliver it to Snape's office silently and to the door of Snape's bedroom was John, who also had full authority in the office.

"This kid is pretty good."

Snape spoke, picked up the gift box and opened it.

The whole movement was incredibly light and joyful.

However, after seeing clearly what was inside, the vague smile on Snape's face disappeared instantly.

Because what John sent was a book.

A book with a pink cover that teaches love skills - "The Notebook"!

Not yet giving up, Snape opened the book.

But on the first page inside, John’s congratulations were clearly written:

[To my respected Professor Severus Snape]

[I hope he can read more]

[Rely on this book to improve your self-cultivation and love ability]

【Wish you early success】

【John Shafiq; Michelle Shafiq】

"This stinky boy!"

Snape roared angrily and threw the book out.

He was really pissed off.

He had paid so much for John, but that brat was teasing him in this way!

And this is not the first time John has done this!

Snape clearly remembered that one Christmas before, John gave him a large bucket of shampoo and asked him to wash his hair more.

Take a deep breath.

Snape, whose blood pressure continued to rise, picked up his wand and prepared to go find John.

This time, he wants to settle old and new accounts together!

But at this moment, he saw a magic photo fall out of the "Notebook".

The background of the magic photo is in the Potions office.

There are only three characters in it.

John, Michelle and Snape.

In the picture, John and Michelle are sitting at the workbench, playing with a crucible.

Snape stood behind them, saying something serious and coldly.

It was like guiding them in refining a magic potion.

At the moment when a bright purple smoke erupted from the crucible, indicating the success of the refining, Michelle raised her arms and cheered, while John looked at the camera, smiled and winked.

As for Snape.

His eyes were always on John and Michelle.

At this moment, all the original seriousness and indifference on his face faded.

All that's left is relief and a faint smile.

This is the final scene of the magic photo.

The person who developed the photo deliberately freeze-framed this scene, and the picture would not start to play again until a full five seconds later.

There was hardly any hesitation.

Snape immediately bent down to pick up the photo and carefully wiped the non-existent dust on it.

Looking at the photo, Snape couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.

"This stinky boy!"

Snape couldn't help but say it again.

But compared to last time, there was a smile in his tone this time.

Snape put away his wand, quickly found a picture frame to put the photo in, and first placed it on the workbench.

But after thinking about it, he felt a little embarrassed to put it outside for others to see, so he placed it on the cabinet beside his bed.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Snape liked the picture more and more the more he looked at it.

Finally, he sighed with a smile:

"Oh - what a great photo! That Mag guy must not have it, right? If she sees this, she will definitely be jealous of her!"

It was as if he could sense Snape's muttering in the dark.

Professor McGonagall, who was in the Transfiguration Office, sneezed.

"It seems I should find time to go to the campus hospital for a checkup."

Professor McGonagall spoke and wiped her nose with a handkerchief.

Putting down the handkerchief, her eyes naturally turned to a photo frame on the desk.

The photos inside were also sent by John this morning.

But it was different from the photo Snape received.

There are even more people in the photo on Professor McGonagall's desk.

Except for John, Michelle and Professor McGonagall.

There are also Harry, Ron, Hermione, George, Fred, Ginny in the photo...

A large group of them gathered around Professor McGonagall, laughing constantly.

Professor McGonagall, with her hands folded in her hands, looked at them with a smile on her face with relief.

The picture is beautiful.

As soon as he took a look, Professor McGonagall's face was filled with a smile.

"This is a good group of kids."

Professor McGonagall sighed, stood up and went to the window to look down.

From her perspective, she could just see the students running out to play, take a walk, or have a snowball fight early in the morning.

But unlike in the past, this time, John actually appeared.

He just walked on the snow like this.

Behind him were a large group of Slytherins who gathered spontaneously.

Such a team appeared on the field and instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Normally, John would never do such a ostentatious thing.

But today John is here to show off!

At this moment.

Around his neck was a silver and green scarf embroidered with a Slytherin snake pattern - a gift from Mrs. Weasley.

There is also a silver cross pendant hanging outside the scarf - this was given by the nun.

On his chest was a silver shield-shaped brooch - a gift from Snape.

To top it off, he had a piece of cheesecake in his hand!

This was made by Michelle herself!

He has also eaten a lot of pastries and delicacies made by beautiful girls.

When Senior Taylor was still in school, her favorite thing to do was to feed John with her homemade pastries.

But maybe it’s because there’s more love in it. John always feels that the cheesecake made by Michelle is particularly delicious!

It was so delicious that he couldn't help but come out to show off to everyone!

He just led a group of Slytherins around the grounds and the castle until noon, when he returned to the Great Hall and began to enjoy a sumptuous meal.

At this time, Michelle, who had not been seen all morning, finally appeared.

"John! The dress and jewelry you gave me are amazing!"

Michelle shouted and came to John's side, followed by Hermione.

"The cake you gave me was also very delicious. I ate it all." John also smiled and said, "By the way, does the dress still fit?"

Michelle smiled sheepishly and said:

"That fits so well, so beautiful! I've been trying on that dress all morning! By the way, do you want to see how I look in it?"

John said with some anticipation:

"Of course!"

Michelle waved her hand to John and immediately rushed back to Gryffindor Tower.

But at this moment, Hermione grabbed her and said:

"Michelle, have you forgotten what we agreed before?"

Michelle also suddenly reacted and clapped her fist:

"Yeah, I almost forgot! John, why don't you bear with me a little longer. I made an agreement with Hermione to wear it for you when the dance starts!"

John felt a little pity.

But he could completely understand what Michelle and Hermione were thinking.

For these girls, it is quite meaningful to show the perfect side of themselves in front of the people they love most at the grandest moment.

Thinking so, John nodded.

"Great!"

Michelle cheered, "Then let's go back first! Hermione has learned a lot of makeup skills from books recently, and soon she said she would also put makeup on me!"

The two said goodbye to each other, and Michelle took Hermione's hand and left the auditorium with a smile.

John just watched their leaving figures.

"What kind of makeup skills does that Muggle-born girl have?" Draco sneered. "John, if you ask me, I'd rather ask the beautician from 'Mrs. Primpine's Beauty Potion Shop' to do Michelle's makeup." Bar."

John said without looking back:

"Michelle looks good regardless of whether she wears makeup or not."

Hearing this, Draco subconsciously glanced in the direction of Pansy, and then said proudly:

"Same goes for Pansy!"

Then throughout the afternoon, the atmosphere in Hogwarts became increasingly heated.

Everyone is getting ready for the Christmas ball in the evening.

As time passed, John felt a rare sense of nervousness in his heart.

This emotion was largely aroused by the words of Hermione and Michelle.

If Hermione hadn't told her, she would have to wait until the ball before letting Michelle wear a dress.

If Michelle didn't say Hermione was going to put makeup on her.

John might only have some expectations in his heart.

But now, John was a little nervous and a little panicked.

'Although the dress was carefully selected by the two of us, and the designers and tailors are of a very high standard, are there some unknown flaws? '

'How good is Hermione's makeup skills?Will she paint Michelle as a 'clown'? '

'Will there be any surprises today that will ruin this dance that I have prepared to officially announce my relationship with Michelle to everyone? '

……

John was distracted by thousands of thoughts.

"Snapped--"

The bedroom door was opened.

Draco rushed in and shouted anxiously:

"Hey! John, we have to hurry up!"

Hearing this, John stood up immediately.
