Chapter 125 The Diamond-Encrusted Nose Tip

Because of Severus' rare "complaint", Qiubai and Severus got tired of being together for a long time.If it wasn't for the Disillusionment Curse, Qiubai and Severus might have become conjoined twins in the eyes of others.

As the time approached Christmas, Hogwarts was wrapped in strong wind and sleet.A blazing fireplace has become a standard feature in the cellar, and Qiubai is just like Xiao Bai in the biological ring, sleepy all day long, looking particularly lazy.

However, it is also possible that it was smoked by the smell of alcohol.Hagrid kept supplying Madame Maxime's steeds with their favorite single malt whiskey.The smell of alcohol wafted from the feeding trough in the corner of the temporary stable, and the students who had only been in class for a few hours were fainted from the smell, not to mention Qiubai who had to stay there all day.

In this class, Hagrid miscalculated the form, and he introduced his latest researched new species—fried-tailed snails.He told Qiubai about this before, but Qiubai didn't pay attention to it at the time, so this was also the first time Qiubai saw this new species.

Qiubai tried very hard to restrain her disgusted expression. She had seen so many magical creatures, but she had never felt so disgusted by any magical creature: they looked like deformed and shelled lobsters. It was gray and slimy, and had a terrible appearance, with many feet sticking out in all directions, and it was impossible to see where the head was.

There were about a hundred of them in each box, each about six inches long, crawling on top of each other, bumping dazedly against the walls of the box.They also had a very strong smell of rotten fish and shrimp.Every now and then a few sparks would shoot off the tail of a snail, and with a soft snap the snail would be pushed forward a few inches.

The combination of this smell and the smell of wine is like knocking over the Qiwei bottle in Qiu Bai's stomach, making her stomach churn continuously.No way, she could only set up a magic circle around her nose to isolate the smell, which made her look like her nose was glowing.

But Hagrid was very excited. He said proudly: "You can raise them yourself! We can do a big project!"

"Oh! No!" The students made painful and resisting voices.

"Hagrid, why don't you introduce yourself?" Qiubai tugged at Hagrid's sleeve, hoping that he could get through this class as much as possible, and then she would try her best to change Hagrid's mind.To hell with those snails!

"Yes, yes. The snails are actually a new species, and we are all ignorant about them. But don't be afraid, as long as we study them well, we can open up a new field." Hagrid said proudly, "Okay , you just feed them today, I haven’t raised them before, and I’m not sure what they like to eat—I prepared ant eggs, frog livers, and green snakes—try a little of each to see if they eat it eat."

Qiubai didn't think that such a violent-looking creature would like to be fed by others, especially since they didn't even seem to have mouths.This new species of Qiubai has never been seen before, but if you look closely, you can still see the shadow of a fire crab.

The fire crab is already irritable enough, and she will not treat Qiubai any special because of her status as a natural sympathetic person. She still remembers feeding the fire crab back then.

"Hagrid . . . they don't look friendly," said Qiubai.

"No, I don't think so, Blast-end snails are cute creatures that are too much fun to watch and it's a real source of pride to watch them grow."

Hagrid's thinking was very different from that of ordinary people. Qiubai sighed helplessly, and could only cheer up desperately to prevent any students from being injured by the snail.

The students endured disgust and threw feeding materials into the snail boxes.A few minutes later, there was indeed an injury incident. The tail of the snail exploded and burned the student's hand. Qiubai had no time to react.

"It's too dangerous! Hagrid!" Qiubai gave the injured student the simplest treatment.

"Ah, yeah, that's what can happen when they blow up." Hagrid said, nodding his head. "Ah, some of them have thorns on them. I guess the ones with thorns are the males... the females' bellies. There are sucker-like things...I think they probably suck blood."

Qiubai suddenly felt a burst of exhaustion. This kind of unknown and dangerous thing is really not suitable for teaching students!In order not to cause students to be injured again, Qiubai could only put protective magic shields on the students one by one.Under such exhausting circumstances, he was watched by a person as if he was watching a play.

Rita Skeeter leaned against the fence in Hagrid's vegetable garden and watched the drama.She was wearing a thick magenta gown today with a purple suede collar, and the crocodile handbag dangled from her arm.

"Who are you?" Hagrid asked.

"My name is Rita Skeeter, reporter for the Daily Prophet," replied Rita, looking at Hagrid with a wide smile, her gold teeth gleaming.

"It seems that Dumbledore said that you are not allowed to enter the school again." Hagrid said with a slight frown, and he pulled off the snail that almost stabbed the student and threw it back into the box.

Rita didn't seem to hear Hagrid at all. "What are these fascinating animals called?" she asked, her smile widening.

"Skreck," Hagrid replied gruffly.

"Really?" Rita said, interested. "I've never heard of it before . . . Where did you get them?"

The face behind Hagrid's shaggy black beard was flushed, and Qiubai knew without thinking that this snail was definitely bred by crossing two kinds of organisms, and it definitely did not comply with the "Prohibition of Animal Breeding Experiments" law.

"I don't think it has anything to do with our lessons, miss." Chomber caught Hagrid and dragged him back.

"Oh, you are?" Rita looked around Qiubai for a while, and then concentrated on the tip of Qiubai's nose.

"No comment, miss. Please don't disturb our class. Hogwarts does not stipulate that we need to be interviewed by reporters during class." Qiubai said to Rita with an impeccable smirk on his face.

"No, no, the interview is not today. Mr. Hyde, we have a zoology column in the Daily Prophet every Wednesday, and I think you must know that. Would you like to be interviewed, eh? Put your experience in protecting magical creatures Share with readers? We can introduce these -- um -- rattle wolves."

Qiubai's heart sank, but Hagrid was so excited that he didn't even notice that the reporter lady even called him wrong, "Blast-tailed snail," Hagrid explained affectionately and eagerly, "I... "

Qiubai gave Hagrid a twist behind his back, thanking her for her strength, making Hagrid really feel her reminder.Hagrid grinned at Qiubai, but Qiubai ignored him and smiled and said to Rita: "We will also do research on this kind of creature, and we will submit a paper to "Weekly Magazine of Fantastic Creatures" when the time comes." Contribute."

"Okay...Okay." Rita's face was about to fall off in embarrassment. A professional magazine like "Magic Creatures Weekly" was a field she hadn't touched yet.

Perhaps Qiubai's expression on seeing off the guests was too obvious, so Rita grabbed her crocodile handbag and walked away step by step.Qiubai glared at Hagrid only when there was no one in sight, and said, "Oh, Hagrid, I guarantee that if you accept her interview, you will be discovered by the Ministry of Magic and arrested immediately."

"You... how do you know. I managed to get a manticore and a fire crab, and then bred a fried-tailed snail. I dare say that this will definitely be recorded in the annals of history." Hagrid was mysterious Xi said.

"Oh, no. Hagrid, I don't know if it will be recorded in the history books, but I know you may be imprisoned in Azkaban." Hagrid trembled immediately when he heard the word, and Qiubai continued to work hard. Persuaded, "We should apply for approval from the Ministry of Magic before conducting research. I promise, Hagrid, I can assist you in your research, but this is not suitable for teaching in class."

"Don't the students like it?" Hagrid's disappointment temporarily defeated his fear of Azkaban.

Of course I don’t like it, Qiubai thought to himself, she said: “Look, so many people were almost burned today, this is not suitable for them. And we still have some biology that will be tested in the exam that we didn’t teach, didn’t we?”

Hagrid's tears were about to fall again, and he said in a muffled voice: "You are right, Charles. Then I will do the research myself." Qiubai heaved a sigh of relief, and the students finally Ended the class with a horrible feeding.

Although the snails were uncomfortable, they didn't spread among the students. At least the magic gloves that Qiubai "put" on them attracted their attention better.

Rita Skeeter is worthy of being Qiubai's "novelist".On the first weekend after being kicked out of class, Qiubai's deeds appeared in the "Daily Prophet", such as a mysterious girl who didn't teach well in class, and specially set a diamond on the tip of her nose to attract students attention...

Qiubai was amused by the inlaid diamond.

This sensational report could not cause any waves, because Qiubai's image among the students was still difficult to be affected.Some people even questioned the reports of the "Daily Prophet" because of this incident, because these reports were completely different from what they saw.

Harry has also been mentioned many times because of this incident, and everyone is speculating that the reports about Harry may not be true.Coupled with his heroic performance in the face of the fire dragon, other colleges no longer have the hatred and resistance towards Harry.

But Harry can't feel this for the time being. He has two worries. One is that he has no idea about his golden egg, and the other is the bolt from the blue that he just learned that the Christmas banquet includes a dance. According to the traditional practice of the game, the ball is opened by the warriors and their dance partners.

And he's a warrior, which means he has to find a dance partner...

"What are you worrying about?" Qiubai was very surprised to see Harry in a corner of Hogwarts, he was holding the golden egg alone in a daze, and the two little friends who were inseparable were not by his side.

"Mother Charles." Harry's watery green eyes showed a confused look, "Professor McGonagall said that I must find a partner to dance with, but...but I can't dance."

"There are still a few days, you can learn." Qiubai said.

"I don't need a practice partner," said Harry, frowning.

"I think there are many people who are willing to dance with the warrior." Qiubai raised his eyebrows and said.

Ever since the deans told the students these things, the girls have been waiting for the boys to invite them, or excitedly exchanging ideas about what to wear on Christmas night...

"Did a girl invite you?" Qiu Bai asked.

"Yes..." Harry was invited by three girls, but he refused them all, because they were not the ones he wanted, and he never found a chance to invite the ones he wanted.Thinking of this, Harry sighed and said, "Why are they all moving in groups? How can I wait for them to move alone and catch one to make a request?"

"Trap one with a noose?" Qiubai said with a smile.

"Oh, Mum Charles, why did you say the same thing as Ron!" said Harry angrily.

"You have someone you want to invite." Qiubai said with certainty, and Harry looked at Qiubai in surprise.Qiubai pretended to think for a while before saying, "Qiu Zhang? She is indeed a beautiful girl."

"You, you, how do you know?" Harry stammered.

"Obviously, Harry," sighed Qiubai. "As far as I know, she already has a partner."

"How come?" Harry stood up suddenly, his face was full of anxiety, as if something precious had been snatched away.

"Hmm, you have to take the initiative now. If you don't invite, you will definitely be invited to leave." Qiubai said.

Suddenly, Harry's face became distraught, "Who is her dancing partner?"

"After all, it's not you, Harry." Qiubai patted Harry's shoulder, "It's better to hurry up and find your own dance partner. You see, there are actually quite a few people around you worthy of invitation."

Qiubai was referring to Hermione and Ginny, who were really nice girls.If it wasn't that Harry didn't know her, she would actually like to introduce Ravenclaw's Lovegood, who is also a lovely girl who always has unique insights on magical creatures.

But Harry didn't seem to hear, Qiubai helplessly patted Harry again, "Cheer up, my son. You have to take the initiative!"

"Okay... okay." Harry replied dazedly.

"How about your second competition?" Qiubai decided to change the subject.

"Not good." Harry's trance turned into worry, and he raised the golden egg in his hand and said, "No clue at all. Neville said it was the Cruciatus Curse, but that's impossible. George said he was going to Assaulting Percy in the shower...that's bullshit anyway."

As expected of twins, Qiubai chuckled inwardly.Qiubai looked at the golden egg in Harry's hand, and she was actually a little curious.For the second competition, what Qiubai learned was that the warriors were going to the bottom of the black lake to rescue their treasures from the hands of the mermaid.But what the treasure is, she still doesn't know.

"Have you opened the golden egg?" Qiu Bai asked.

"It's been opened." Harry's expression was a bit painful, and it seemed that the memory of opening the golden egg was not good, but then he suddenly thought of something, and his eyes lit up, "Mother Charles, you can't understand biology." Language? This should work too!"

Before Qiubai could answer, Harry deftly dug his fingernails into a circle of grooves on the golden egg and pried it open.A terrifying, shrill scream filled Qiu Bai's ears.She quickly raised her hand and placed a silencer spell around the golden egg, and the piercing sound stopped abruptly.

Qiubai gasped and said, "Oh, I don't understand."

"Even you can't understand, so what could it be?" Harry said despondently.

"I can understand not all the languages ​​of creatures." Qiubai helped Harry close the golden egg again, "Maybe this is one of them."

"Is there anything you don't understand?" Harry asked curiously.

"Let me think about it." Qiubai propped his chin and carefully reviewed the scenes in his life that he was not friendly with magical creatures or animals, "Mouse..." Qiubai said disgustedly, "I can't do mice. Of course, there are creatures smaller than mice, and I can't understand them. The words of magical creatures are like elves, and it's hard for me to understand what they are saying..."

"It's not a mouse anyway." Harry put on the same disgusted face as his godmother.

"It can't be an elf..." Qiubai patted his head suddenly, and Qiubai had a flash of inspiration. How could she forget the mermaid in the second project? "I remembered," she said excitedly, "and A type of creature!"

"What is it?" Harry asked.

"In the water." Qiu Bai said, "As long as it's in the water, I basically can't do it."

"Water..." Harry murmured.

"Yes, water." Qiubai thought she had hinted enough, creatures in the water naturally had to listen in the water.

But Harry obviously didn't receive the signal, "Water...Could it be...does it really have to raid Percy's bathroom like George said?"

"Oh my god..." Qiubai patted his forehead with one hand, "You better think about it, Harry." Qiubai turned around and left. She really didn't dare to think that her godson might be a fool. After walking a step away, she turned back and said, "Hurry up and find a dance partner. If you don't know how to dance, come to me. I'll teach you."

Leaving behind Harry, who was looking down again, Qiubai walked slowly in the corridor.From time to time, the laughter of the girls and the self-satisfaction of the boys can be heard in my ears. Indeed, many boys have already found their dance partners.

She caught a glimpse of Qiu Zhang among the girls, and the girl nodded excitedly and shyly at her. Qiu Bai suddenly remembered that when he was in Huaxia Magic School, the transfer student Edward once said that his great-great-grandmother was very adore Shire... so to speak...

What a wonderful fate, right?Feel sorry for Harry for three seconds.

Skipping these youthful people, Qiubai finally came to the foyer. When she was about to find a place to use the Disillusionment Charm, she suddenly saw Ron walking up the marble stairs with Hermione who was covering her mouth. Behind her were two weeping girls with boils all over their faces.

"Miss Shire," Ron called.

"What's wrong with you guys?" Qiubai saw with sharp eyes that something white was protruding from under Hermione's hand.

Hermione's exposed face turned red quickly, and the tears in her eyes seemed to be falling. She broke free from Ron's hand, and flew up the stairs by herself.

"Oh, what's wrong..." said Ron unhappy.

The girls in the back saw Hermione running away, and ran away covering their faces. One of them bumped Ron's shoulder, which made Ron even more unhappy. He might think the girls are very unreasonable now. It certainly did not include his idol, Miss Charles.

"I don't know what's wrong, it's the first time I saw Hermione fighting with people directly, throwing curses at each other... I really can't believe it. I also saw it when they were about to end, I don't know why , one of them used a front tooth stick on Hermione." Ron said, rubbing his shoulders.

Qiubai immediately understood what she saw before, she shrugged, "Actually, there may be a possibility of a blessing in disguise." She had long wanted to say that the front teeth can actually be reduced in size by magic spells. But Hermione never felt sad because of this matter, and Qiubai didn't mention it on purpose.

"How could it be a blessing in disguise?" Ron didn't know why.

"I'll find out soon." Qiubai didn't say directly, and wanted Ron to see it by himself. After all, Qiubai caught the faint youthful atmosphere between him and Hermione, "By the way, you Have you found a partner yet?"

"No." Ron said Harry's despondent face.

"I said this to Harry, and I will also give it to you." Qiubai looked at the confused Ron and said, "Look at the girls around you, take the initiative!"

The author has something to say:

Harry and Ron are both little fools, pity Harry's first love that died without a cause.The snails still couldn't escape, but Hagrid wouldn't let Harry and the others walk the snails anymore. After all, this thing was too dangerous, and they would be burned at any time. Even if the wizards wouldn't die, they would still hurt! ! !

As for the Daily Prophet, Qiubai: How much does it matter...

In addition, pretending to be a tree hole, so many days of hard work did not achieve the desired result, it is a bit uncomfortable, 5555555... But if you fail, you have to continue to work hard, don’t you have to continue living this day, I sent a Weibo this morning to let alan and Si teach Wish me, but unfortunately I didn’t wish success, alas╯﹏╰
