HP's Platinum Temptation

The spacious classroom is long and located on the third floor of the Southwest Teaching Building. One wall is a continuous glass window. The Black Lake can be seen directly from the outside, but it is blocked by heavy curtains.The dark gray curtains felt dirty.The chandeliers for indoor lighting were also covered in thick dust.In addition to the desks and chairs in the center of the classroom that were obviously used for class, there are also many bookcases scattered around.

"I'm a little curious about what kind of classroom this used to be, and it actually needed so many bookcases." Clarence used a clean one on a bookcase beside him.Then I touched it with my hand: "I feel that the workmanship is quite good, and it should have a bit of history. I think we should use these."

"Can we ask the house elves to help? If we only rely on us, one seventh grader and four first graders, how can we clean it up?" Daphne said a little annoyed, "It will definitely be too late to start recruiting new members tomorrow!"

"Oh, that's right!" Theodore took out a small crumpled note from his pocket with a sudden realization: "The principal said that when cleaning the old classroom, you can ask an elf to help. Here is the name, Shaq."

With a snap, a house elf with a gray and white pillowcase on his body appeared in front of everyone.

"Mr. Lambert, Mr. Principal has already ordered Shaq! I am glad to serve you!" The elf stood on tiptoe happily and looked at Theodore with expectant eyes.

"Uh, help us clean this classroom. Clean up the dust first." Theodore raised his eyebrows at the other four people who looked at him in surprise, and put the small note back into his pocket, commanding very skillfully The house-elf set to work.

"Okay, Mr. Lambert." Shaq flashed to the window, and saw that the windows began to open one after another, and a strong wind blew into the classroom.The dust was kicked up, and everyone covered their mouths and noses with school robes.

"Who is it! Interrupted my sleep!" A harsh scream came from the scattered furniture.At the same time, Shaq hid behind several people with a snap.The furniture that had been in a commotion just now fell to the ground and became quiet again.

A fat and white figure floated out from the highest pile of furniture.He rubbed his sleepy eyes, and drifted slowly towards a few students.

"Ahem, Mr. Phantom, I'm sorry to disturb you." Clarence raised his hand and waved away the dust that was still floating in front of him, and coughed twice.I deeply sigh, although the house elf is efficient, but the movement is really loud.

"What Mr. Ghost? It's so rude! I'm Abelson! Why do you bother me to sleep?" The white, fat and short Mr. Ghost waved his fleshy fists angrily: "Students nowadays are really less and less Be polite!"

"Yes, Mr. Abelson, I'm very sorry. We got the principal's permission to use this old classroom." Clarence changed his address very calmly and continued: "We didn't know you were here beforehand, really I am so sorry."

"What? Do you want to use this classroom? Well then, alas, I have to change places again. Fortunately, there are quite a lot of classrooms now. I'm leaving, you continue." The fist waving in the air hangs down limply as if its strength was taken away : "Oh, my favorite classroom, I'm finally going to lose you!" After speaking, the ghost was about to leave through the wall.

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Abelson. Can I ask you a few questions?" Clarence said hurriedly, "Do you know what class this classroom used to be for?"

"Of course I know! This is the classroom of ancient runes about 50 years ago. Oh, my dear Professor Horney! Why did you leave us and leave the school without saying a word?" The fat Mr. In mid-air, there was an exaggerated sniffling sound.

"Are there many empty classrooms in the school? Uh, I mean, sir, do you have any other classrooms that can be used as bedroom options?" Clarence looked at the exaggeratedly sad ghost and couldn't bear to ask.

"Of course, there are more empty classrooms. The number of students in the past is not as small as it is now." The ghost put away his exaggerated expression, squinted at Clarence who was about to ask a question: "I'm leaving." After speaking, he quickly passed through The wall disappeared.

"Is there any secret about this? He doesn't seem to want to answer my questions anymore. Shaq, you continue to tidy up. Let's go outside the door first, and let us come in when we are done."

"Ah, I didn't expect that we really established this club. In fact, it was just a joke at first." Clarence, who was waiting in the corridor, looked at the four partners who seemed to be in deep thought with a smile on his face.

"What, am I serious?" Daphne retorted angrily to Clarence.

"Hahaha, I actually thought it was a joke at the beginning, I didn't expect the professor would really agree to my application." Theodore laughed a little bit awkwardly, but found that Jeffrey and Cindy were the same expression.

"What! Am I the only one taking it seriously?" Daphne put her hands on her hips angrily: "No, no, no! You all have to be serious! Just work hard at the beginning!"

The four looked at Daphne with a serious expression and all laughed.No one expected that one day in the future, the Violet Society they established like a game would leave a strong mark in the history of the wizarding world.

In the early morning, the Slytherin lounge, which should have been quiet in the past, heard the buzz of many people talking.

"They didn't come back last night! The portrait said, they came once and left when they found the password was incorrect."

"Hmph, I must have gone to sleep with Hufflepuff. They won't last a few days." Lorenzo's tone was very unpleasant.

"Could they be planning to come back this morning? If everyone is going in and out, it won't stop them from going in and out."

"What are you afraid of? As long as no one tells them the password, can someone always open the door by chance?"

Clarence and Jeffrey heard this conversation from the lounge as they came downstairs, yawning with their Monday textbooks in their hands.

On the stairs of the girl's lounge facing the front, the girl who happened to be downstairs couldn't hold back her surprised look when she saw the two indifferent faces.

Jeffrey held back his smile very seriously, pretending to be as casual as Clarence, and calmly walked through all the sculptured people in the lounge because of their appearance.After saying good morning gracefully, she walked out of the lounge.

The moment before the cellar door closed, louder discussions than before squeezed out from the crack in the door.

Last night, Clarence led Jeffrey and opened a room full of landscape paintings in the Room of Requirement.Behind the only movable landscape is the secret passage leading to the corridors of the Slytherin dorms.The exit is also a landscape painting.And the location is very lucky to be very close to their dormitory.So their return did not alarm anyone.Lorenzo's first difficulty was overcome without any effect.

A new day began with a member recruitment announcement that caused discussion outside the auditorium.

By the time Clarence and the others reached the auditorium, the announcement had already sparked discussion.Many people crowded in front of the bulletin board to watch.Walking into the auditorium, you can hear Theodore's excited voice from Hufflepuff's most crowded crowd.

Everyone paid a lot of attention to this new association. On the one hand, it was because the name of the association was rather strange, and the goal of the association could not be seen. On the other hand, it was——

"Mr. Lambert, what is the grammar class for all first and second year students that the Violet Club bulletin said?" asked the first year Slytherin at the breakfast table on Clarence's right hand in a low voice.

"Oh, this." Clarence put down the tableware calmly, and turned to the people beside him with a smile: "Mr. Baker, this grammar class is an open class we prepared, no matter which college it is, or whether it is a member of our club, you can Go and listen. It is specially aimed at the newly enrolled students, teaching you how to better complete thesis assignments. We will prepare several homework assignments for students with different grades, as well as suggestions from several professors, and analyze them for everyone to help Everyone avoids some common mistakes, so that everyone can complete their homework more smoothly."

"Really?" Baker's eyes lit up instantly. For him who often failed his homework, this was very tempting: "Why do you want to prepare such an event?"

"The first is to be able to help those who come to attend the class. Second, after the class, we will briefly introduce what our Violet Club does and what activities it usually has. If you are interested, you can join our club and participate in more There are many activities. Are you interested? This is the address and time. This Saturday, if you want to go, you are welcome at any time, without any restrictions." Clarence tore a long-written note from the sticky note: "We have more than 100 seats. I don't know if there will be a lot of people. You can consider going there earlier."

"Oh! Okay!" Baker quickly reached out to take the sticky note, and carefully put it in his textbook.

At the same time, Daphne and Cindy were surrounded by many Ravenclaw students.The two girls were distributing the same sticky notes with address and time as Clarence.There is a copy of such a note in the hands of five members.

Baker stopped talking after collecting the note, and the Slytherin table resumed a quiet dining atmosphere.Except for Lorenzo's resentful look at Beck.

Baker also remained silent in the matter of isolating Clarence and Jeffrey a while ago. Although he did not take the initiative to cooperate with Lorenzo's actions, nor did he get close to Clarence, he was a typical neutral faction.But the move at this time undoubtedly has the effect of breaking the ice.

There is no obvious leader in the neutral faction. Everyone follows the trend and acts according to the situation.

Every student in Slytherin is not simple.Everyone has their own code of conduct.Lorenzo's difficulty last night can also be regarded as a kind of temptation for the neutral faction.As Jeffrey said, pure blood theory is not the truth, strength is the last word.Apparently no one has figured out how Clarence and Jeffrey got back to the dormitory last night.For Baker, this is already an effective argument in support of his change of position.

Regarding Baker's behavior, Clarence and Jeffrey exchanged a tacit look.

The atmosphere in the auditorium continued to be heated, and the only Slytherin table that maintained order began to brew more violent undercurrents.
