Hogwarts Dances with Dragons

The next day, early in the morning.

Alvin yawned and emerged from the tent.

Although the Grangers and Mr. Lovegood strongly opposed it, Alvin still set up a tent in the living room in the name of something new.

Hermione and Luna slept in his room, but unfortunately, no ambiguous stories happened, and there was no such thing as getting under the quilt in the middle of the night, which he expressed disdain for but was actually looking forward to in his heart.

Although both Hermione and Luna were strongly curious about Alvin's luxurious tent, out of the girl's reserve, the two returned to the room to sleep early.

Mrs. Granger's voice came from the kitchen. She seemed to have gotten up early to prepare the meal.

"Good morning, Alvin..." Hermione sat on the sofa in a daze, looking a little lackluster.

"Didn't you sleep well?" Ivan asked looking at Hermione's faint dark circles.

"It's okay..." Hermione muttered.

Hermione couldn't say anything about the fact that she was too excited to sleep in Alvin's bed and had insomnia.

"Hermione has been tossing and turning all night," Luna said gently.

"Is it because you recognize the bed?" Ai Wen said casually: "But my bed curtain is so thick, and there are three quilts on the bed, why shouldn't I recognize the bed?"

Is there any safer place in the world than my bed? !

Hermione blushed a little, because it was so reassuring that she always thought about strange things...

"No, I slept quite peacefully, but I was too excited yesterday and went to bed too late." Hermione said, glancing at Alvin: "Also, you actually put that photo on the table..."

Alvin: "The one you kissed me on?"

Hermione: "Shut up!"

Alvin smiled slyly, clapped his hands, and the tent folded up behind him, and Lal took him away.

"Good morning, children!" Xenophilius walked into the living room carrying a coffee cup.

"Good morning, Mr. Lovegood." Ivan greeted politely.

"What a wonderful Christmas." Xenophilius drank coffee and smiled gently: "It's a pity that I have to go home today. The first issue of the Quibbler of the new year needs to be printed early..."

"Aren't you going to stay for a few more days?" Ivan asked.

"Although I really want to do this, the readers are still waiting for me." Xenophilius raised his eyebrows and said somewhat proudly.

Ivan really wanted to say that normal people generally wouldn't read such imaginative magazines as The Quibbler, but it seemed impolite to say so.

"I'm relieved that Luna is here. You can have fun during the rest of the holiday." Xenophilius said: "Of course, I hope you won't run around. It's very dangerous outside recently. No matter what Either Sirius or Lockhart is absconding, they are probably hiding near Hogwarts."

"Don't worry, Mr. Lovegood, Dad will be watching over us," Hermione said.

"Oh~" Mr. Granger poked his head out of the kitchen and looked at Hermione apologetically: "I'm so sorry, honey, we have to go back to London later. The hospital had a lot of appointments scheduled a year ago. So we can’t stay too long, we will go to the hospital tomorrow.”

"Oh..." Hermione's shoulders slumped, a little disappointed.

But then she thought about it, it seemed that she could be closer to Alvin if her parents were not around, and she suddenly felt a little happy again.

It would be nice if Luna also followed Mr. Lovegood home, in that case...

Wait, what am I thinking!

After lunch, Mr. and Mrs. Granger and Mr. Lovegood left by the fireplace.

"The troubles of self-employed people." Ai Wen spread his hands.

The legal Christmas holiday in the UK is three days. Although Hogwarts has a half-month holiday, only students can enjoy this kind of treatment. For most people, especially those like the Grangers, For doctors in private hospitals with a full schedule of appointments, the Christmas holiday is still very short.

"I always feel that the house is a lot empty." Ivan said casually: "They are all gone. You can sleep on the second floor tonight. The room next to the study belongs to Hermione. Luna, you can live in the room opposite, which is Luo The room where Mr. Fugood stayed last night."

"Okay." Luna nodded obediently.

Although she liked sharing a room with Hermione, people always needed some privacy, especially for girls.

After getting along for such a long time, Luna has long seen the ambiguous relationship between Alvin and Hermione, so she often avoids them intentionally or unintentionally, giving them some time alone to avoid being annoyed by others.

The little girl is so smart!

call…

The flames in the fireplace gradually died down. Seeing that Mr. and Mrs. Granger and Mr. Lovegood were leaving, Alvin quickly said impatiently: "Let's go to the village to play? Buy some things and go to the school to see how Harry and the others are doing. Sample?"

"How childish..." Hermione rolled her eyes angrily.

Of course she knew what Alvin was planning.

During the Christmas vacation, this guy just wanted to show off to Harry and Ron and the others, to show off that he could play in Hogsmeade. Ivan didn't like other boys to show off in front of girls, but he liked to show off at certain times. Show off the gifts you bought for him, show off what fun things he bought...

Boys, how childish!

"I want to go to Honeydukes!" Luna said excitedly.

"I want to try the Butterbeer from the Three Broomsticks, and by the way, I never got around to seeing the Screaming Shack." Hermione said, "I heard it's the scariest haunted house in the UK."

"Okay, then get dressed quickly and we'll set off right now." Ivan smiled.

clang clang...

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a knock on the door, and Lal quickly went to open the door.

"Ah - good day, the great Professor Dumbledore." Lar's humble voice sounded from the entrance.

The three of them hurriedly came to the door and saw Dumbledore's tall figure standing at the door, using his wand to clean away the wind and snow on his body.

"Merry Christmas, old man." Ivan said hello and walked forward: "Come in quickly!"

"Merry Christmas, Mr. Darknight." Dumbledore glanced at the three of them and smiled gently: "But I still won't go into the house. In fact, if it's not really important, I don't want to It’s so unwise to interrupt the pleasant vacation time between you and two beautiful ladies.”

The old man said and winked in the direction of Hermione and Luna. Luna looked innocent and Hermione lowered her head in embarrassment.

"What? Did you find Voldemort?" Ivan asked.

"No, there is no news about Voldemort yet." Dumbledore looked at Ivan: "That's a good thing for you - the first version of the shuttle door has been tried out."

Alvin looked surprised: "So fast?"

"Of course, don't underestimate the ability of a master alchemist, Alvin." Dumbledore nodded: "But according to my old friend, so far, no matter how he conceives the design, the thing can only travel through this The time and space of the world, instead of being able to break through the barriers of the world like you..."

"That's amazing. This taboo-level alchemy creation is not that easy to make..." Ivan sighed: "But since you can't travel across the world, what's the point of coming to me?"

"That's the problem." Dumbledore said: "Evan, if I remember correctly, the Eclipse Gate you mentioned is not an alchemical creation that can travel through the world."

"What do you mean?" Ai Wen frowned.

"What Nico means is that you crossed into this world through the Eclipse Gate, but how did you cross over on the premise that the Eclipse Gate itself does not have the ability to cross the world?"

Dumbledore raised two index fingers, and then slowly pointed at Ivan.

"So he came up with the idea that the problem isn't the Eclipse Gate, it's you."
