Chapter 245: The Secret of the Golden Egg

"Merry Christmas, though it's still a little early," Penelope said to Darren before parting ways, "now you're all right, and you can have some fun these two days." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Merry Christmas!" Darren said hurriedly, "It's a shame you can't attend the school prom, but don't worry, I'll let Fred and George take pictures of the prom and the show for you, you know the ......"

"Magic camera, Hermione told me, thank you. “

"It's been a hard time, so you can rest well, ah, by the way," Darren pulled a check from his pocket, "thank you." ”

"No," Penelope didn't answer, "Didn't you give me a sum of money last time?"

"That's a check from Gringotts, it's from the bank, now that you're working, you should buy some gifts for your family for Christmas, maybe the things in Diagon Alley don't have the same taste as your family, you don't have to exchange money with this." ”

Listening to Darren's words, Penelope paused for a moment and finally took the check from Darren's hand, "Thank you." ”

"Alright, goodbye!"

"Goodbye!" Darren put on his invisibility cloak and ran towards Hogwarts.

When Darren returned to the Gryffindor common room, he saw Harry playing wizarding chess with Ron, Harry was in a bad situation, and in a few steps, Ron checkmate Harry with a pair of rampaging pawns and a ruthless bishop.

"Ahh ”

"Oh, I'm here, preparing for the Triwizard Tournament, that, you know there's a lot to practice," Darren said perfunctorily, "You go on, I'm going back to rest, I'm too tired today." ”

However, when Darren returned to his bedroom, he saw Neville in a circle with a chair in his room, apparently practicing dancing as well, when he was startled to see someone come in.

"Ah," Neville blushed as he placed the chair in his arms on the floor, "I, I'm here, I didn't hear you. ”

"It's okay, you go on," Darren sat down on his bed, "good jumping, why don't you go outside to practice, it's a bigger place there." ”

"......" Neville snorted, looking at his appearance, Darren knew he was embarrassed, "It's good, I can just listen to the music," by the way, he can also see Neville's dance steps, which is more or less a learning.

The next day, Darren was finally able to get some rest, and by this time everyone's attention was on the Santa Ball, and by this time, everyone who attended the ball had found their own dance partner, either busy preparing dresses and accessories, or hurrying to make the final run-in, and finally no one bothered him because of his status as a warrior.

Experiencing the rare purity, Darren and Hermione came to the library together, there are almost only the two of them here, too, except for Hermione, who will come to read books during the holidays, but Darren, who has just experienced a busy time, also likes this kind of relaxation, lying on the table and watching Hermione flip through the books, of course, there is a tablet word next to him, this period of time is too busy, he has no time to copy the books in the library.

"It's not easy," Hermione lifted her head from the book as she seemed to finish a paragraph, "and no one bothered." ”

"Huh?" said Darren, lying on his stomach, "is there still anyone making noise in the library?" Mrs. Pince is not a good talker. ”

"Yes, Mrs. Pince can stop the noise, but not let people in, that Krum, he comes here a lot, and every time he's there, there's a crowd of girls hiding behind the bookshelves to spy on him, it's so annoying. ”

"Krum comes to the library often?"

"Yes, I've run into him many times. “

Darren propped himself up from the table, touched his chin, and thought, so Krum is not as single-celled as he looks, and think about it, if he is just simple-minded and has developed limbs, then the best Seeker who plays Quedic should be a gorilla!

"Speaking of Krum, you're going to be in the Triwizard Tournament, you really should look at that golden egg and figure out what it means......"

Hearing Hermione's words, Darren thought about it, the following competition didn't seem to be dangerous, and it shouldn't make Hermione nervous, "I already know what the golden egg means." “

"What!" Hermione cried out, her voice drawing an emaciated old woman, looking like a malnourished vulture, muttering to herself beside a bookshelf.

"Mrs. Pince, I'm sorry. Hermione whispered an apology to her, and the other party left.

After looking around nervously, Hermione said in a voice that Darren could barely hear, "You shouldn't say it so easily, maybe someone will overhear and tell the other players." “

"It's okay, if someone eavesdropped on it from here, then I knew it earlier, didn't I, and conversely, if they already knew the secret of the golden egg, I wouldn't have to worry about anything. “

Hermione frowned and stared at Darren before asking in the same voice as before, "So, what's the voice in the golden egg?"

"Inside is the singing of a mermaid. “

"The mermaid's song?"

"Yes, the song means I'm looking for something in the Black Lake, my most beloved baby!" As for what this treasure was, Darren didn't think he needed to tell Hermione.

"In the Black Lake?" Hermione muttered, "what kind of test is this?"

"That meant I had to be in the water for a long time and swim a long distance to find something. ”

"In the water, God, you're going to drown, unless ......," Hermione said hurriedly.

"I've found the spell to breathe underwater," Darren took the tablet, "You see, the bubble head spell is a spell that covers the head with a large bubble that fills the air, ensuring that I am supplied with fresh air. ”

"Oh," Hermione looked at the bubble head spell and how to cast the spell on the tablet, "this spell is perfect and will keep you underwater for a long time. ”

"Well, I said don't worry, I'm the champion chosen by the Goblet of Fire!"

"Hmph!" Hermione replied to Darren with her nose, but then added, "But you're still looking for 'baby', and it's not enough to breathe in the water." ”

"Cut, for a wizard, this shouldn't be a problem, it's like digging tunnels underground with a Transfiguration Charm. ”

"Then, you also have to be familiar with the topography of the Black Lake, the lake is so big, it's bad to get lost. “

"Well, that's right, wait, you don't want me to go swimming in the lake now, it's still snowing outside!"

"Of course not now, it's almost Christmas. “

"Oh, huh?"

"After the festival, you go again. “
