Alice's Travels

Regrettably, Alice's source of happiness still did not last a year before withdrawing from the Hogwarts stage again.It's just that this time it was Lockhart who finally got stuck on himself after bouncing around for so long.

That day was the Defense Against the Dark Arts class between Gryffindor and Slytherin. As usual, Lockhart was describing the story of his book to everyone, and occasionally he would find students—usually Harry came to the hall to cooperate with him to act out the interesting scenes in it-usually his heroic moments, such as how he subdued a fierce werewolf, how to save a poor villager-of course, the final ending is undoubtedly the village Once again remember and often think of him as a hero.

Alice looked at Harry who was brought up to play the vampire again and thought silently, this should be the reason why Harry annoyed him the most.

Harry stood in front of Lockhart like a little idiot, baring his teeth and grinning - matching his performance.Ron tried to laugh and to stare at Lockhart - blushing.Hermione always couldn't bear to cover her face at this time - she didn't want to see Harry's stupid look.Malfoy and the Slytherins were rocking their seats with laughter.

"That's it—Harry—it's so like, believe it or not, that's when I pulled out my wand and pointed it at his throat like this—and—yes, Harry, just stay still— He was so frightened that he stopped in place and didn't dare to move - then I immediately cast a very complicated confinement spell - fixed him on the ground at once..."

Lockhart was speaking while waving his wand to demonstrate the scene in front of everyone. Who would have thought that when he was raising his wand high and muttering that complicated spell quickly, a magic wand actually came out from his wand? Curse, quickly shot towards the ceiling. It hit the crystal chandelier, and the crystal chandelier fell from the top.

Harry hurriedly dodged far away with his head in his arms, and the surrounding students also dodged - Lockhart even jumped aside at the first moment, but what was unexpected - the wand in his hand exploded again There was a flash of fire and he hit himself - Lockhart's body flew out and hit the wall hard before falling to the ground and passing out.

Alice watched the scene dumbfounded.Before everyone could react, things seemed to have happened to a very surprising point.

There was an uproar in the classroom, and Hermione let out a shriek and said tremblingly, "Is he going to be all right?"

Harry ran over and returned to his seat, "I don't know - I just passed out."

"What do we do now?" Ron asked, meeting Harry's eyes.

"Be quiet, everyone," Alice stood up. "I'm going to call the professor over now, Malfoy—you watch Slytherin. Harry, Hermione, Ron—you watch Gryffindor .”

After she finished speaking, she quickly walked out, and went directly downstairs to the staff lounge. There were only three people in it now, and both McGonagall and Snape were there.

"Oh, Miss Altman—" said Professor McGonagall, looking at her in surprise, "what's the matter with you?"

Snape also turned to stare at Alice, as if waiting for her explanation.

"I'd like you to go and see Professor Lockhart," said Alice. "He passed out in Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom - while he was doing drills for the students, things may not be going well right now."

Professor McGonagall stared, looking a little surprised.Snape curled his lips coldly, as if he didn't care, but he still walked over with Professor McGonagall and Alice.

They checked the crystal chandelier on the ground and Lockhart's wand, and found that he might have accidentally cast a mirror image attack spell, which caused the wand to bounce and hit him - Snape curled his lips contemptuously.

Professor McGonagall and Snape ended up getting Lockhart out together, and the rest of the class was spent in study sessions.

Later, Professor McGonagall soon brought an echo to the students-Lockhart's memory was a bit confused because of the impact on his brain, he couldn't use the spell, and he needed to go to St. Mungo's Hospital for long-term treatment-they This semester's Defense Against the Dark Arts class is temporarily cancelled, and the teacher will change next semester.

Students welcomed the news with enthusiasm - save for a handful of Lockhart's little fans.

Although one class is missing, it will be less fun, but it will undoubtedly give Alice a little more spare time.She didn't expect Lockhart to turn from a funny comparison to a fool. She felt that the Defense Against the Dark Arts course was poisonous—whoever got involved would be unlucky—and in just two years, it had reached the level of one dead and one stupid. Achievement.And Snape was still thinking about teaching this class, I really don't know what he thinks - and I don't know if he will succeed next semester.

Hermione seemed depressed until the end of the term, probably because Lockhart was gone - and she would never see her first male god again.

Harry and Ron looked very happy, especially Harry, God knows how happy he was when he finally didn't have to act like a fool playing those stupid characters in the classroom-it really was the most wonderful time of the year. something happened.

As the temperature rises, the hot summer is finally here.

And with the end of a series of final exams, summer vacation followed.

This year's House Cup is still jointly crowned by Slytherin and Gryffindor - everyone is very happy.

Hermione and Alice still took first and second place in their grades.To Alice's surprise, Malfoy jumped from the tenth place in the grade to the third in the grade, and his score was closely following her - it seems that this kid has worked hard this year, Alice thought to herself.

"I wish I could stay at school for the summer like you," said Harry, as they were about to take the Hogwarts Express home. For two whole months, I felt unbearable..."

"It's because I have nowhere to go," Alice said, looking at Harry. "You can go out for a walk more, instead of staying in the house all the time. In fact, you can also go to Hermione's house. You are in the same city. It should be quite convenient…”

When she noticed Harry's eyes widen, she suddenly remembered and said, "Well, I forgot that your aunt's family seems to restrict your movements, or—Hermione, can you come and play with Harry?"

"Maybe," said Hermione, "I don't have any plans for this summer, so I'll call you first, Harry."

"That would be great!" Harry laughed happily, quickly wrote the number on the parchment, tore it into two and handed it to Hermione and Ron, "You must remember to call me, okay? Otherwise, I will definitely not be able to bear it."

"Okay, I'll ask Dad how he uses the phone," Ron said, scratching his chin, "but you can come to my house during the summer vacation. And Alice, you didn't come over last year."

"Okay, I will keep in touch with you." Alice said with a smile, "See you at the beginning of school."

Overall, Harry had a good time this summer—it was the first time someone had a birthday with him.His good friend Hermione really went to see him at the Dursleys' house. They had a fun day out and ate cake together, and Harry received gifts from her, Ron, Alice and Hagrid. Come birthday present.It made it seem as though the rest of his stay at the Dursleys' house had become less unbearable.

Hermione went to a museum with him later, and Harry realized for the first time those technological weapons that Alice had mentioned, as well as the rapid development of Muggles over the past few decades, which made him very interested in the Dursley family—Ferrell. Uncle Nong and Aunt Petunia were even more puzzled and annoyed that magic still had the same hostile and fearful attitude towards witches as people in the Middle Ages had towards witches.

Hermione reassured him that it might be their fear of the unknown or their ignorance - but everything would be fine in the future.

Yes, everything will be fine.Harry lay in bed and thought that he could go back to school tomorrow, see you tomorrow.

Alice's vacation time is still very dull.She is now 13 years old and has grown a bit taller, but she is still a bit thin compared to her peers, perhaps because of malnutrition when she was a child.However, as she gets older, she can do more and more things. Although she is not yet independent, she thinks that it is almost time.

Trying to suppress the desire to go home, she began to plan the next thing in her mind - returning to the country and traveling back.

She wanted to go back to China, but she didn't dare to go back - would her family be there?Parents should not know each other now, right?what are they doingAnd now I am just a little foreign girl, even if I see them, what can I do?

The mood was ups and downs between all the unknowns, mysteries and worries, but fortunately Alice also got good news during the summer vacation-Hagrid will be teaching the protection of magical animals next semester.

Hagrid shared the news with Alice at the first time. He looked very happy, and Alice was also happy for him.You know this class is really suitable for him - he has always liked those fantastic animals best.
