Chapter 27 Christmas Gifts and the End of the Holidays

Just before Tang Ning fell asleep, he drowsily heard some rustling sounds coming from beside the bed. He reluctantly opened his eyes, and saw a pair of big eyes facing Tang Ning in the darkness.

Tangning's scalp felt numb and she jumped out of bed. He almost thought it was haunted.It wasn't until a beam of light appeared in the room that Tangning recognized Kreacher.

"Next time, don't show up like this, Kreacher." Tangning let out a long breath, his heart still not calming down.

"Okay, little master." Kreacher dissipated the fluorescent magic from his fingertips and turned on the light. He explained: "Kreacher knows that the little master is going on vacation. Kreacher has been coming every day recently to see if the little master is back. .”

"Thank you, Kreacher." As soon as she said the words, Tangning realized her mistake.really--

Kreacher, who was in tears, screamed: "Little master, there is no need to say thank you. Kreacher does not need it. This is an insult to Kreacher. Kreacher is just doing what he should do..."

Tangning was very experienced in facing a house elf with a twisted mind, "Stop, now tell me how have you been living in the Black family for the past three months?"

"Kreacher is very good. The portrait of the mistress will also talk to Kreacher. Kreacher has kept the house very clean. The young master can go there at any time..."

"Well, okay! It's very late now, you should go and rest first!"

"As you command, young master." Kreacher bowed slightly to Tangning and slowly retreated. The lights in the room also went out as he left.

……

Early the next morning, cousin Tonks knocked on Tangning's door. As soon as the sleepy Tangning opened the door, Tonks pulled her out, "Hold on, I'll teach you the Disguise Charm!"

Tangning was still wearing pajamas. He tried to break away from Tonks' hand, but failed. After all, there was an age gap, so he could only complain reluctantly: "Don't be so anxious, let me change clothes anyway." !”

"Do you think you are as talented as me and can easily learn the Disguise Charm? This is a very complicated spell, and you might not be able to use it until the holiday is over!"

In the end, Tonks asked Tangning to go back and change her clothes, but Tonks' words were still half true. After two days of study, Tangning understood that not to mention that the vacation was over, even if the entire school year was over, he might not be able to do it right. Free yourself successfully.

It's not that Tang Ning can't learn it. The main problem is that Tang Ning's magic power is not enough.

The Illusion Curse cannot make the user completely invisible like wearing an invisibility cloak. Its effect is more like a chameleon, but it is much stronger than a chameleon. It can achieve the purpose of invisibility by changing the light and shadow effects around the cursed person at all times. To achieve this, a continuous supply of magic power is required.

Learning the Illusion Curse requires a good foundation in transformation and magic control, and Tang Ning was good at both. On the afternoon of the second day, Tang Ning was able to successfully cast the spell on a cup.However, this speed is not as fast as Tonks. She is really talented at hiding traces.

But when the target of the spell was transferred to Tangning, focusing on one thing and neglecting the other was already a good adjective. When his upper body was in a phantom state, his lonely legs were particularly obvious, and vice versa.Overall, Tangning's Disguise Spell could do nothing but scare people.

This made Tangning feel depressed throughout dinner, until Mrs. Tonks smiled and agreed to give Tangning other spells, "But before that, I want to confirm how well the three spells I taught you before were released." Sample!"

This made Tangning wonder if his aunt had anticipated the outcome of learning the Transformation Curse.

The next day, Tangning came to Diagon Alley accompanied by Tonks. He had a sum of gold Galleons at his disposal. He wanted to choose some Christmas gifts here, but Tangning couldn't pick anything he liked for a long time.In fact, gifts between relatives don't have to be so complicated, and you can directly ask the other party what they want, but this was his first Christmas gift to the Tonks family, and he decided to choose carefully.Afterwards, he asked Tonks to accompany him to the Muggle shops to have a look. At least there were more types of goods there than in Diagon Alley.

By the afternoon, Tang Ning had already chosen the Christmas gift he wanted to give away: the gift he prepared for Aunt Anduo was a Chinese version of a cookbook that he and Tonks bought in London's Chinatown. Tang Ning planned to make it herself. During the translation work, the provincial Aunt Anduo cooked more nondescript Chinese and English delicacies according to the English version of Chinese recipes; a limited edition pocket watch was prepared for Uncle Ted; and Cousin Tonks, the Weasley brothers compensated last time I believe she will like the discharge gloves and escape smoke bombs given to Tangning.

Tang Ning, a few familiar classmates, decided to give each of them a box of chocolates and leave the others alone.Oh, by the way, Hermione can't give chocolates. Tangning plans to give her a book, which is the "The Story That Mr. and Mrs. Flamel Have to Tell" mentioned before. This book may be a bit thin. Well, Tangning plans to add another one. "Merlin".For this book, Tang Ning was most interested in the plot in the second half of the book after Vivian imprisoned Merlin. It felt like a romantic drama about a domineering queen falling in love with me.

"Perfect gift planning!" Tang Ning said to herself.

Soon, after Mrs. Tonks passed Tang Ning's exam, she refused to continue teaching Tang Ning new spells. She said that unless Tang Ning became instinctive to cast the disarming spell and armor spell, she would not teach Tang Ning any new spells. curse.

Her original words are: "In battle, you will find that no matter how many attack or defense spells you use, it will be useless, because your enemy will not give you the opportunity to use them slowly. Only cast faster, A more powerful spell can lead you to victory."

And Tangning needs to work harder to meet Mrs. Tonks's expectations.

"If you can do this, I will give you Bella's best magic spell!" At the end, Mrs. Tonks did not forget to draw a pie for Tangning.

……

In a blink of an eye, Christmas was coming. On Christmas Eve, Tangning sneaked into the room of Mr. and Mrs. Tonks and Tonks' cousin and placed gifts at the foot of their bed.Their doors were all ajar, and Tangning was sure that they were not asleep when she was delivering the gifts.

When Tangning woke up in the morning, she found several small packages at the foot of her bed.The gifts from Tangning's two roommates arrived the day before. They each gifted a book about Quidditch - luckily it was not the same book. During breakfast, Jinx brought Tangning a gift from Hermione. Also a book, but about magical beasts.

Do you think I love reading?Tangning was a little confused.

……

The Christmas holidays are gradually passing, and after bidding farewell to Mr. and Mrs. Tonks at the station, Tangning will start her journey to Hogwarts again, while Miss Tonks went back to continue her Auror training a few days ago.

Walking through the train, in the same compartment as before, Tangning saw the familiar Miss Granger again.
