Chapter 162: Valentine's Day

.lā

Penelope happened to pass by the school hospital when she was discharged from the hospital, saw the huge box Hermione was holding in her arms, and kindly stepped forward to help.

"What is this, so heavy?" took the box, and Penelope was stunned by the weight of the box.

"Oh, thank you, Penelope, for this is Alan's Christmas present to me. Hermione got out of the box for a moment, feeling much lighter.

"Harry and Ron said they were going to pick me up, but I waited a long time and they didn't come. Hermione couldn't help but grumble.

But no one answered, and Hermione looked up to see Penelope staring down at the huge box she was holding in her arms.

"Is it too heavy, Penelope? Hermione was a little embarrassed, how could she let Penelope carry such a big, heavy box by herself, while she was just carrying some light salutes!

"Inside are books?" Penelope's voice was fluttering.

"Yes, it's all the textbooks for Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from the first to the sixth grade. ”

Hermione finished speaking, and wanted to take the huge bookcase in Penelope's hand. But Penelope preemptively placed the box on the ground.

Penelope waved his wand, and the box opened silently, and the textbooks inside flew out one by one.

"Let them fly back with us. Penelope spoke briskly, with a hint of excitement Hermione's incomprehensible.

Penelope leaned over and picked up the empty box on the ground. As she moved, a faint stream of light crossed her plain magical robes.

"It's beautiful!" Hermione couldn't help but admire.

"What?" Penelope knew when he saw Hermione's gaze lingering on her, "This robe is a Christmas present from Allen. It is the masterpiece of the famous design master Mrs. Crane. ”

Penelope stood up straight, and her graceful figure was even more enchanting against the backdrop of this robe.

"Well, I mean, Penelope, you've used your spell beautifully!" Hermione looked away.

Penelope smiled even brighter, "Thank you, like you, I'm also the first in my grade." She winked mischievously.

Penelope's words both elevated himself and complimented Hermione.

Hermione laughed too, she thought Penelope was cute, and the uncomfortable weird feeling she had had in her heart disappeared without a trace.

Although he likes to read, Penelope's beautiful robe is so beautiful, and it is normal for him to be excited.

If you can only choose one of the two gifts......

Hermione thought about it, but still thought the magic book was better!

Now, the sun is starting to shine faintly on Hogwarts again. In the castle, the mood of the people became optimistic.

Since Justin and Nick, who almost lost his head, were petrified, there have been no further attacks.

In the Forbidden Forest, when Allen gave Gaia some interesting toys for little unicorns that he had brought back from New York, Gaia also said that no birds had been killed in the Forbidden Forest for a long time.

Madam Pomfrey was pleased to report that the mandrakes had become moody and taciturn, that is, they were rapidly moving away from childhood.

"As soon as their acne is healed, they can be transplanted again. Then, it won't be long before we can cut them down and boil them over the fire. All those who were attacked will soon return. ”

Madam Pomfrey said this happily to everyone who cared about the attacked.

Peeves had forgotten his fears, but his fear of chaos led him to chant "Oh, Potter, you nasty ......" when he saw Harry, and now with a regular dance routine.

Alan also inadvertently saw Gilderoy Lockhart confidently introduce himself to Professor McGonagall, "You know, there is a need for morale boosting in schools right now. I can't talk about it now, but I think I'm confident ......."

Professor McGonagall's expression told Alan that she didn't trust Gilderoy at all.

But Alan believes!

The Oblivion Charm may be what Gilderoy does best! Erasing the memories of young wizards, Professor Lockhart is more than capable of it, and will do it better than anyone else.

Alan thought that if Professor Lockhart hadn't been too bad at spells in other areas, and had a penchant for vanity, perhaps he would have been able to do the work of the Ministry of Magic's Reversal of Contingencies.

It soon became clear to Allen that Professor Lockhart's talk of erasing bad memories was not at all what he had imagined.

On February 14, when Allen went to the auditorium for breakfast after training as usual, he was simply stunned by the layout of the auditorium!

All four walls are covered with large, dazzling pink flowers.

To make matters worse, there were also heart-shaped confetti falling from the light blue ceiling.

Alan looked at the confetti that had fallen into the porridge and lost his appetite completely.

Reluctantly, he picked up a sandwich, brushed it off, and put it in his mouth.

Girls clearly prefer this pink, romantic setting to boys with disgusted faces.

Breakfast is available every day, but Valentine's Day is only once a year!

When Professor Lockhart, dressed in a bright pink robe that matched the decorations, waved his hand to silence everyone, Alan couldn't help but pick up two cakes and quickly leave the auditorium.

However, this evasive behavior did not work.

In front of the doors leading to the foyer, Alan saw twelve dwarfs with gloomy faces.

They all had golden wings and harps on their backs. This is apparently Professor Lockhart's arrangement to deliver love letters and greeting cards to the "little Eros".

Throughout the day, Professor Lockhart's dwarfs kept barging into their classrooms, handing out Valentine's Day cards, much to the annoyance of the teachers.

In the afternoon, when Alan climbed to the fourth floor to attend a Charms class, he found a dwarf struggling to chase Penelope.

Penelope, on the other hand, walked in a hurry due to the rules that could not cast spells in the corridor, apparently not wanting the dwarfs to catch up.

Alan blinked, quietly stretched out his right leg, and tripped the dwarf.

Unexpectedly, after the dwarf was stunned for a moment, he gave up chasing Penelope and became entangled with him instead.

"Alan Harris, I have five soundtrack messages to convey to you personally!" said the dwarf, plucking the harp in an aggressive stance.

Seeing this, Penelope, who was in the distance, no longer fled, but came over.

A couple of first-year witches, pointing at Alan and the dwarfs, giggling.

Alan had a bad premonition, ignoring the rules of Hogwarts, and drew his wand and pointed it at the dwarfβ€”"silently"!

Alan succeeded in stopping the dwarf and didn't get him to sing....

Alan breathed a sigh of relief, and the dwarf looked gloomy, looked at Alan deeply, and turned to leave.
