Hogwarts Life Guide

Chapter 52 Can you still have a good Halloween?

A few days after Miss Granger's birthday, a cold wave swept through Hogwarts, bringing with it intermittent rain and a sharp drop in temperature.Tang Ning was a bit unlucky. While he was reading and practicing spells by the black lake, he happened to be soaked in a sudden rain. Then Tang Ning, who rarely got sick, suddenly caught a cold.

There were many students who had the same experience as Tang Ning. Madam Pomfrey immediately became busy. She prepared a lot of refreshing medicine for the students. This was a quick-acting medicine for treating colds, but the side effects were also obvious - Tang Ning finished drinking it. Then puffs of white smoke came out of the two ears like the chimneys of an old train, on and off for more than two hours.

In fact, Tang Ning refused the refreshing medicine at first, but when Hermione discovered that Tang Ning had a cold, she spent more than half an hour educating Tang Ning on the side effects of not taking medicine for a cold. Later, there were even death cases...

The impact of birthdays is still very far-reaching. The simplest and most obvious thing is that after that day, Tangning no longer needs to find a reason when she wants to refer to Hermione's homework. Miss Granger usually turns a blind eye, especially when it comes to dark magic. She will also give advice on defense homework.

The professors have more and more after-class homework as last year, and the weirdest one is Lockhart.Lockhart has not brought any living things into the classroom since the Cornish elf made trouble in his first class. He now likes to read highlights from his books in class, and will continue to do so when the mood strikes. Ask students to act.In Tangning's class, the actor's role was usually Harry. As of mid-October, for nearly a month and a half, Harry had starred in a character who was cast a bubble-blowing curse and later cured by Lockhart. Simple villagers; a Tibetan snowman suffering from a rhinorrhea; and a vampire who only eats carrots after meeting Lockhart.

There are only two kinds of homework for Lockhart. One is to write a poem about Lockhart's wonderful performance in the book; the other is to write an article based on a certain chapter in the book. Of course, these chapters are all about Lockhart. Hart's heroic deeds.

Although Miss Granger's original admiration for Lockhart has turned into a rational treatment, she can always complete Lockhart's homework well, and she also received two autographed copies of "Lockhart". "Magical Me".

Moreover, the revenge that Tangning expected from Lockhart did not appear, possibly because he did not believe Malfoy's words.This is good news for Tang Ning. No one wants to get into trouble.

A few days before Halloween, it rained heavily outside the castle. Raindrops hit the window of Tangning's dormitory, making him not even want to go to the library while he was lying in the dormitory.In the evening, a wet Harry broke into Tangning's dormitory and invited Tangning to attend the [-]th anniversary of Nearly Headless Nick's death on Halloween.Tangning naturally rejected Harry. The reason he gave was, "People and ghosts are in different paths and they cannot love each other!" Harry was speechless.

Tangning was not stupid. He would not skip the school's lively banquet and instead go celebrate his death anniversary with the ghosts.Tangning's refusal made Harry regret that he had agreed to Nick so hastily before. It was probably too late to regret now, right?Harry hesitated.

But Harry didn't regret it in the end, because Hermione showed special interest in the ghosts' death anniversary party. "I bet there are not many people alive who can say they have attended such a party - it must be wonderful! Halloween at school There are parties every year, but Nick’s [-]th death anniversary is just this one..."

This time, Tangning was unmoved by Hermione's lobbying - he said to Hermione, "Unless you promise to help me write Lockhart's homework every week..."

"make a deal!"

Immediately afterwards, Hermione strengthened Harry's determination with "A gentleman's words are hard to follow".

At seven o'clock on the day of the Halloween party, Tangning, Harry, Ron and Hermione walked straight through the crowded auditorium.The aisle leading to Nearly Headless Nick's party was already lit with candles, but they were all dark, thin candles that shone with blue light when burning, adding a hint of spookiness. atmosphere.With every step they took, they could feel the temperature dropping.

After getting closer, Tangning heard a sound, like many nails scraping against the blackboard.This sound made Tangning extremely uncomfortable. It was like a sharp claw gently scratching his fingers, skull, and even the flesh and blood all over his body. He tried to use "ear plugs" on himself, but it didn't work. As a result, although the sound was isolated, it still echoed in Tangning's mind, which made him feel even more uncomfortable.

After shaking her head, Tangning grabbed Hermione and shouted loudly, "I can't hear these sounds... I want to go back and take a rest. If you still insist on going to the death anniversary party, remember to come back early!"

Tangning's ears were still ringing, and the spell hadn't been lifted yet. He could only watch Hermione anxiously talking under the dim blue light. Tangning waved her hand and pointed at herself. ears, and continued to shout, "I cast a spell on myself and can't hear. Please help me explain it to Nick!"

Tangning walked to the entrance of the party aisle before canceling her spell. The buzzing in her ears immediately disappeared.He looked back, and Harry and the other three were still looking at him. Tangning waved her hands to them, and the three of them turned back.At this time, Nick had already greeted them.

Regardless of how Harry would explain to Nick, Tangning returned to the brightly decorated auditorium. There were many golden plates on the table with various foods on them, which looked particularly attractive under the red candlelight.The big pumpkins grown by Hagrid were also moved to the auditorium and turned into huge jack-o'-lanterns that could fit at least two or three people inside.Last year, Tangning didn't have much experience with the Halloween party because of the troll. The doors and walls of the auditorium were decorated with live bats that could be transformed using the Transfiguration spell. Later on, the Weasley brothers took out the magic bats that could transform into small animals. The white rabbit's dazzle pushed the banquet to a climax.

But until the end of the banquet, Tangning didn't see Hermione or the others. He could only leave some food for the three of them. Ghosts would definitely not prepare meals for living people.

Tangning left with the crowd, but not long after leaving, the little wizards suddenly stopped, and the happy laughter after having had enough wine and food gradually disappeared.Tangning tried to push her way to the front of the crowd, but she had been falling behind the group because she was worried about spoiling the food. As soon as he squeezed into the middle, he heard Malfoy's deliberately raised and mean voice, "The chamber of secrets has been opened, and the heir is an enemy." Sir, be careful! You will be next, Mudblood!"

Tangning managed to squeeze out of the crowd, and his attention was entirely on Malfoy.Malfoy was in front of the crowd, his usually bloodless face flushed red, with a hint of a sinister smile still on it.

"Draco, I warned you not to say that word!" Tangning said to Malfoy word by word.
