Chapter 239: Departure

"The other two-thirds should have been on Beauxbatons' Warriors and Gryffindor's jack-of-all-trades. Pansy counted them on her fingers, and finally sighed faintly, "You boys are such face-looking creatures. ”

It seems that Malfoy himself is blamed by the way.

"I'm not. Malfoy stared at Pansy, spreading his hands and giving an awkward smile.

Then the two of them left the long wooden table and turned sideways around the dance hall into the foyer. The front door was open, and as they descended the steps, the fairy light in the rose garden shimmered. It is surrounded by low bushes, richly decorated winding paths, and huge stone statues. The sound of splashing water can be heard, like a fountain, and people can occasionally be seen sitting on openwork benches. They followed a winding path and walked among the rose bushes.

"What are they both doing, and they have been dumped by their respective dance partners? Or are they a real couple in the truest sense of the word?" Pansy caught a glimpse of two figures not far away on another path, and by the moonlight, she could still distinguish the owner of the figures, and then speculated "maliciously".

It's Gryffindor's warrior Harry Potter and his good friend Ron Weasley, and the two are sneakily bent over, not knowing what they're doing.

Because Ron's old robe was so old-fashioned and funny enough to be remembered at a glance.

Aside from the malicious speculation in the second half, Pansy's guess didn't go awry.

Ron's dance partner Padma was not interested in him in the first place, and Ron's attention was not on her, but instead looked at Hermione and Krum with jealousy, which made her feel insulted, and no girl would want her prom partner to pay attention to other girls, so that she seemed very unattractive.

So in the process of the ball, the girl randomly found an excuse to leave and never came back.

Her sister Parvati seems to have been in the same situation, and Mr. Potter of Gryffindor doesn't seem to be interested in her, maybe just using her as a dance partner, so the girl from India decisively chooses to leave.

Harry sat alone on a chair with his cheeks propped up, staring at the dance floor as Mid-Autumn Zhang and Cedric danced from the beginning to the end, the girl's graceful and moving swan-like dancing and the seamless tacit understanding with his male partner disturbed him, but he didn't know what his psychology was, and he himself watched it so attentively that he didn't even notice that his dance partner was leaving angrily.

After a long time, he felt a little depressed, and was about to look for something to eat, and decided not to care about what was happening on the dance floor, only to realize that his dance partner had run away and was talking and laughing with some Beauxbatons boys.

Coincidentally, he met Ron, and the two "sympathetic" people decided to go for a walk outside to relieve their inner boredom.

"What are they doing, Draco?" Pansy asked, stabbing Malfoy in the back with her arm and whispering, before spotting two more figures not far from Harry and Ron.

"Professor Snape, who else is there?" Snape's greasy hair stood out in the moonlight, and seemed to reflect the light, and Pansy recognized it at a glance.

Before Malfoy could reply, Pansy said to herself, "They're eavesdropping!"

"Hello, Professor Snape!" Pansy shouted at once, and then Snape and the man next to him immediately hurriedly stopped their conversation, and each took a step back, separated by a wide distance.

"Potter, Weasley?" Snape's face turned ugly, and he now realized that someone was eavesdropping on their conversation, and Harry and Ron stood motionless on the path in front of them.

"We were on a walk. Ron said to Snape unceremoniously, "It's not illegal, is it?"

"Then go for a walk!" Snape exclaimed, and strode past them, long black robes fluttering behind them.

By this time, Pansy had also seen the appearance of another man by the moonlight, it was Durmstrang's headmaster, Igor Karkaroff, who was reaching for his goatee seemingly uneasily, and then wrapped his beard around his fingers, and followed Snape with some trembling.

"How's it going, Draco, I sabotaged their misdeeds, right?" Pansy said smugly to Malfoy, frowning quickly, "But why is Professor Snape with that goatee, did they know each other before?" Pansy then asked curiously.

"Maybe. Malfoy shrugged, not wanting to tell Pansy more about these things.

"I heard that Professor McGonagall originally introduced Professor Snape to a dance partner? it was said to be Professor Turney Lawney, but he refused, do you think he should be really..."

Malfoy slashed Pansy on the forehead with a knife, and said helplessly, "Use your head to think about something else." ”

"Let's go, it seems like a good location. Malfoy raised his hand and began to change the subject, pointing to a large stone carved reindeer.

Behind the reindeer there seemed to be a beautiful fountain, splashing and sparkling in the light of the moonlight, and on one side was a wide clearing, surrounded on all sides by bushes, leaving only a narrow path, and when you got closer, you found that there was a white pavilion made of marble, with a stone table and several stone benches around it.

Malfoy and Pansy sat down at their table.

"I still want to dance. Pansy put her hands on the table, her cheeks on her cheeks, and looked wistfully in the direction of the Great Hall, which was brightly lit and stood out in the night.

"How about watching other people dance?" Malfoy snapped his fingers.

"What's there to see?" Pansy said gloomily, "I'm tired of watching on the dance floor." ”

"Do me a favor, fairies hiding among the flowers?" Malfoy said softly, flipped the wand in his wrist.

Pansy was amazed to see that many starry and colorful little fairies suddenly came out of the flowers in front of her, and then a burst of light and pleasant music floated from nowhere, and a group of little fairies danced in the bright moonlight with the dance music.

"Thank you. Pansy whispered as she stared at the beautiful scenery in front of her, knowing that the boy next to her had done everything he could to compensate her.

The midnight bell rang at this time.

"Draco, let's go back, I'm really happy today. Pansy stretched, wrinkled her nose, and said, "Count the time, the ball should be over, I don't want to get into a crowd with them when we go back." ”

"It's fine. Malfoy nodded, flicked his wand, and the fairies faded back into the flowers.
