Phoenix grabbed Hermione as she raced. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"I-" Hermione panted, her face turned pale, and she seemed to have run some distance.

"Don't worry, it's nothing. Slytherin and Gryffindor clash daily. ”

"I heard in the bathroom that a Slytherin student was covered in blood and was driven to the hospital by Professor Snape. It's a boy—" Hermione gasped, but her expression had returned to normal, even a little embarrassed.

Phoenix stared at her a little speechlessly.

"You think it's me?"

"Oh, I'm overreacting—" Hermione brushed her hair nonchalantly, "what the hell is going on?"

Walking down a secluded hallway, Phoenix told her one by one, including the source of the spell.

"That's right, it's no surprise that Snape, who was a Death Eater in his early years, invented those magics. Hermione said smugly.

This proves that she has long been right about the book, a would-be Death Eater who has a hobby of inventing dark arts. He didn't think it would be wise to remind Hermione that Snape had only invented one dark magic.

"yes, but don't forget, we need Slughorn to keep his interest in Harry. "So that wicked book needs to continue to do its job until we - until we - finish - until we can think of a better word, and for the greater good, let Harry continue to read it carefully." ”

Hermione was deflated. She is very resistant to cheating, and the situation forces her to give in.

In mid-October, on the morning of going to Hogsmeade, there was a strong wind outside, accompanied by scattered light snow. Phoenix woke up early, and he had an emergency meeting that he had to attend.

A considerable number of students choose to stay in the warm and safe school, drinking hot cocoa and chatting and having fun with friends. Only the activists wore heavy winter cloaks and stepped out of the school gate.

Filch stood at the oak gate as usual, checking the names of the classmates who had been allowed to go to Hogsmeade. It was longer than ever, as Filch used his probe to test everyone over and over again.

The walk to Hogsmeade was uncomfortable. Phoenix wrapped a scarf around the lower part of his face, and the exposed part was quickly frozen to the point of pain, and then it was numb. There was also a blue-winged flying object hovering above his head, it was Phoenix's Curling Winged Demon.

A few days ago, he found some information about this creature in A Thousand Strange and Strange Creatures.

They hatch only when they are soaked in the human brain, and it takes about two weeks for them to mature and have the ability to secrete venom. Undiluted venom is deadly, and when diluted, it becomes an excellent amnestic liquid, even spreading it on targets the size of the city, washing away the memories of the entire city.

It is highly intelligent and can understand human language. However, they are dangerous to any outsider except their owners. The Winged Demon likes to eat human brains - it can also eat the brains of other animals, preferably magical creatures.

The author suspects that the Winged Demon is a new magical animal that was illegally created in recent times by someone in violation of the "Prohibition of Feeding for Experimental Purposes". For there is no record of this creature in the ancient sources of any region - not even a resemblance.

They popped up suddenly in the mid-nineteenth century and were in very small numbers. It can occasionally be purchased on the black market, but there is too little information for the International Confederation of Wizards to debate what to do with the creature.

Phoenix stretched out his palm, and the winged demon flew back deftly, and as soon as it touched the palm of his hand, it immediately turned into a small cocoon. Because it hatched so fast -- it hatched immediately when Phoenix put it in a glass bottle that showed it a human brain -- before it could be named.

On the road leading to the entrance of the village, students can be seen bending over and heading forward against the wind. When he passed by Jokowi's joke shop, he found that it had been boarded up.

When he arrives at the meditation teahouse, his hood is covered with snowflakes, like a tall snowman. The teahouse was empty, with a warm fire blazing and tables of buttersugar, chocolate, a little spirit, and a few bunches of butterbeer.

On the seat was a normal wizard's hat.

This is a new product that was launched just yesterday: the Floo Cap. You can sit in a chair and let your head talk to people from afar through the Floo network. After the purchase, you should register at the Floo office, as it is tied to your fireplace. That is, if you can't just light a fire and put your hat on, or just outside the house. Otherwise, you won't be able to reach your destination, and falling into darkness is the best consequence.

Phoenix felt a particularly hot scarf around his neck, and his head was in a closed room with no doors or windows. The rooms are triangular in shape, with no furniture or decoration other than a fireplace on the walls.

Suddenly, a large green flame erupted from the fireplaces on either side of Phoenix. The heads of Bilow and Gustav appeared in this way, and they were divided into left and right.

"I must have bad news. Phoenix grabbed a few milk candy from his still Hogsmeade hand and passed it through the flames into his mouth.

"Bad news, eighteen hours ago, Russia collapsed, and now Russian Muggles are in anarchy. Gustav said dryly. The expression looked tired.

"What does it mean to collapse? Muggles don't feel the need for government anymore?" said Phoenix, mutteringly. Lactose stuck to his upper and lower teeth.

"No, I'm confused too. They suddenly announced the dissolution of the government, and then the provisional government was overthrown by the army - in short, Russia was in disarray, and individual regions declared their secession from Russia. "A lot of Russian wizards are worried about whether a new Ministry of Magic will be created and they will be excluded from Durmstram's priority admissions." ”

"The Minister of Magic of Russia has made a public statement to refute the rumors. Billo said.

"Is their history of magic in vain! We don't make adjustments to Muggle territory or regime changes. Phoenix said irritably.

"You know, wizards know a lot about secrecy, but not many remember the International Wizarding Convention. Gustav immediately added, "And there was a very serious conflict, in which two wizards were involved, as if their adoptive father had been killed by the army and had been arrested." ”

"Seriously?"

"Fortunately, a few Muggle soldiers died, and it didn't go unnoticed. ”

"So what is the name of Yenov in Russia now, or is the Muggle leader dead now?" Phoenix didn't remember the name of the Muggle leader for a moment.

"Yanayev is dead, but he has an heir and an army. Demand that the independent areas come back, or go to war. Gustav sighed, "It's terrible, if they were to go to civil war - in case Muggle-born wizards were caught up - the Ministry of Magic would be busy to death anyway." ”

"The President of the Magical Congress of the United States informed the Muggle President, who assured him that World War III would not break out. "This is the action that our Muggle research experts have advised us to do." ”
