"He's ...... Originally, he didn't get the news that night, but ......"

"Just what?"

"That guy Alcatel seems to have some understanding of the kind of abilities I got not long ago......"

"So you invited that guy?"

"Yes, I can't invite the godfather, is he's a school teacher, and a student inviting a teacher or a teacher inviting a student, whatever the case may be, is always a troublesome problem, and I don't think the godfather has the energy to pay attention to the Yule Ball lately.

"What's the gossip you've got? I guess...... Is it related to Alastor Moody?"

"Moody? I didn't pay attention to this situation, but Karkaroff had been looking for him many times, and if it wasn't for the chance encounter, I wouldn't have paid attention to this situation, you know, Moody's prosthetic eye, at least the students at the school can't deceive him for the time being. ”

"Well, what can Karkaroff do with Professor Snape?" Aren't you going to ......?" Erinka thought of a possibility, but didn't say it.

"Maybe. Holly saw that Erinka had guessed what she had speculated, and she didn't know how to continue.

"But in that case, Dumbledore will definitely do something about it. ”

"That's right. But damn it, with Moody's here, it's not convenient for us to move......"

Gryffindor, as more and more students in Year 4 and above accept invitations from others or their own invitations are accepted by others, Harry Potter and Ron Weasley are sadly found that fewer and fewer people can choose, even Gryffindor, more and more students find their partners......

"Okay, Ron, I think we should change our ways, or there's a good chance we'll show up at the prom alone on Christmas Day......"

"Yes, Harry. But ......"

"Hey, Parvati, can you come with me to the prom?" Harry said as he saw the girl walking in from outside, standing up and inviting.

"No, I've already made an appointment. But ......"

"Yes? That's a shame. Harry Potter didn't wait for Parvati Patil to finish, and returned to his seat with a red face.

"Wow, Harry, you've just behaved ......," Ron commented, not knowing what words to use to describe his mood, but soon, he stood up, hesitating, not knowing if he should step forward and find a girl to make an invitation. But soon, his embarrassment was broken, seeing that Harry Potter had just invited Parvati to act, the surrounding girls quickly learned the fact that Harry Potter did not have a female companion, so several girls who had not yet received the invitation or pretended to be reserved and refused others, rushed up and directly surrounded Potter and Weasley.

After a struggle, Romilda Venn was the first to win, taking Harry Potter's hand and squeezing it out of the crowd, and then, centered on Ron Weasley, the crowd became even crazier...... Seconds later, the crowd exploded again, leaving only Ron Weasley, who was in a jumbled mess from top to bottom, and Lavender Brown, who was at a loss.

As a result, the final suspense of the Santa Ball is only Victor Krum's female companion...... However, everyone doesn't pay much attention to this for the time being, because the most important thing at the moment is to save their lives and not spend Christmas in the school hospital.

Time flies, and as it turns out, Snape's threat didn't materialize, and Dumbledore's intervention prevented Professor Snape's plan to artificially create a quieter Christmas. However, there was also interesting news that the Weasley twins had developed a new cream capable of turning people into canaries, and Hogwarts received a large number of feathers in a short period of time...... The Weasley brothers proved with their performance that Helly's investment in the two of them was fruitful and promising, but the increasingly long and large bills sent by the supplier through the owl forced the two to turn to Helly again, and at Hawley's suggestion, agreed to put their work into production as soon as possible after applying for a patent...... Oh, and the OEM is Alcatel Corporation, the largest candy and toy company in the wizarding world, and the deal Holly negotiated with her prom boy Vlad Alcatel one day.

The weather is getting colder and colder, snowflakes are falling, appearing in every corner of the castle, and in the girls' dormitory, the atmosphere is getting hotter and hotter, everyone is carefully preparing their own dresses and eating in moderation, in order to ensure that on Christmas night, they can "stuff" themselves into their own dresses. Of course, at a time when most people are struggling with how to adjust themselves to fit their dress, Holly doesn't have so many considerations, even if it doesn't fit, it would be good to find a designer to modify it again.

On Christmas Day, Holly received a variety of gifts as always, of course, the official level of people who have met is the big deal, the gifts from real friends, are still only a few, but inevitably, Holly's gift pile once again covered the Christmas tree in the Ravenclaw common room; 。

Almost all of the students spent at least a morning unpacking the gifts and sharing the nice things they had gotten with each other, which made it a little less difficult for Holly to explain where the gifts came from, but ...... When the time came in the afternoon, the girls left the common room one by one and began to make some preparations for the evening dance, which was not so troublesome for the boys, but they did not delay until the dance was about to begin.

At the entrance of the auditorium hall, it was crowded with people, girls wore all kinds of evening dresses to compete for beauty, and the boys were not willing to be left behind, one by one around the girls, showing their gentlemanly demeanor.

Fleur Delacour wore a silver-gray dress with Roger Davis by her side, and after a while, Draco Malfoy in a black velvet turtleneck gown and Pansy Parkinson in a pink robe also appeared in the hall, and of course, behind him were Kleber and Goyle, two "bodyguards" in green.

In a burst of cheers, Victor Krum walked from outside with Hermione in a blue dress and dress, of course, Hermione, whose image had changed a lot, did not let too many people notice her.

As more and more people appeared in the foyer, the already modest venue gradually became crowded.
