Chapter 31: Christmas Eve
[[[CP|W:365|H:437|A:L]]] Am a Q! Our favorite magical girl, the embodiment of knowledge.
***********************************************************************
Draco's calculations had finally begun.
In the name of Chief Sephiroth, Draco gathered a number of Slytherin elites to "discuss the plan", and the little snakes expressed their willingness to contribute. Thus, a proper and thorough surveillance jihua was born.
Accurate and timely information is essential if you want to catch stolen goods.
However, if Draco were to spy on Harry and the others, no matter how careless the Gryffindors were, they would find out over time. What's more, Gryffindor is not a lot of smart people.
Surveillance in batches, in different places, at different times, and by different people, is the most basic response method for monitors.
After all, it's only a mere first-grader, and a group of children under the age of 12.3 can do this, which is commendable.
At least the emperor admitted that when he was really 11.2 years old, he definitely didn't have such a calculating mind.
However, after all, this matter cannot be found overnight, and it can only be taken when it is fully grasped. In normal times, the people of Slytherin are still mainly studying. As a member of Slytherin, a score of E (good) or lower on the exam will be despised by all the students of the Snake House.
For students, learning is more important than anything else. Especially in the case of wizards, which is about strength, the better you learn, the stronger your strength is, although it is not inevitable, but if you don't learn from others, your strength will definitely not be strong, that's for sure.
Slytherin House, where strength is paramount, will not allow this kind of waste material to appear among students who can't even pass the exam.
Learning now is equal to the strength of the future, and no one will do such unwise things when fishing in troubled waters in learning.
Learning is important intellectually, but emotional carnival and entertainment are the most desired pleasures of human beings.
Christmas, the long-awaited Christmas has finally advanced with the date on the calendar, and finally ushered in this highly anticipated holiday.
On Christmas Day, not only were the students looking forward to the evening, but even the normally serious professors were much more relaxed than usual, and Professor McGonagall, who was considered the most serious, made an exception to smile a little during the class.
For Slytherin students, Christmas parties are undoubtedly their chance to perform.
Educated as an elite child, they are all the protagonists who have often appeared at balls since childhood, and they are skilled dancers compared to the laymen of Gryffindor and Hufflepuff who can't even dance.
At the Christmas party, show the elegant and noble side of Slytherin House in front of everyone. Sephiroth, as the principal, thought so, and he gathered all the first-year freshmen and prepared the necessary dresses for the ball in advance.
Not only that, but even Slytherin will still have a few half-blood wizards who have joined due to philosophical issues, and although the number is only very small, it is undeniable that they are also part of Slytherin.
The little snake who was born as a pure-blood wizard is naturally very familiar with dance, but these half-bloods are not necessarily. In order not to make them lose face in Slytherin at the ball, the necessary guidance is needed.
"I'll just say it once, and everyone will honestly answer, who are the ones who can't dance ballroom dance? Take the initiative to stand up. ”
Glancing at the small snakes standing in front of him, Sephiroth asked them.
The Purebloods stood in front of Sephiroth, who had been selected by Sephiroth to coach others. Sephiroth, of course, would not do these strenuous things.
The little snakes looked at each other, and after a while, the two first-year freshmen walked out with some shame.
"Is it just two? It's good, much better than I expected. The two of you have been learning ballroom dancing with Draco and Shabini for the past few days, so be sure to learn it before the party. Also, if there is anything else that won't, it's best to stand up now, it's not a shame to be in the break room. But if someone doesn't stand up and disgraces Slytherin at the party, then be prepared to be 'taken care of' by your classmates. ”
After waiting for a while, but no third person came forward, Sephiroth nodded in satisfaction and left.
"Then, you two stay, and the rest of the people disperse first."
Draco, who was appointed temporarily, took on the responsibility of coaching, and there were only three short days left before the party, and if he worked hard, he could still achieve basic mastery.
Let's hope these two guys don't have dull brains like trolls.
Whether it's Slytherin, Gryffindor, Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff, every house is gearing up for a Christmas party.
Unfortunately, apart from Slytherin, the so-called "aristocratic house", there are not many people who can ballroom dance in the other three houses, except for Ravenclaw and many purebloods, the other two houses can be described as miserable.
The Hufflepuffs, in particular, are few of them who dare to stand up and dance in the halls every year.
People are practical, and at this time Slytherin students will become particularly sought-after, not only Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff students come to Slytherin friends for guidance, but even Gryffindor, who has always looked at Slytherin unpleasantly, has pulled down his face and asked for advice.
Perhaps only at this time are the students of the four colleges who are most harmonious.
At this time, Sephiroth also received a long-lost gift from his parents at home, a gorgeous evening dress.
"Brother, have you found a dance partner for the party? Do you need my sister to introduce you to one? ”
Her sister, who rarely shows up, also came from the lounge of the senior year, but her worries were destined to be unnecessary, and Sephiroth, a boy with a perfect temperament, did not have the boring worry of not being able to find a female companion.
He wasn't as pitiful as Harry and Ron.
"Sister, are you still worried that my brother can't find a female companion? Isn't it a little underestimating your brother's charm? ”
Sephiroth chuckled and invited his sister into the room, half a month ago, many girls took the initiative to invite him to be their male companion, and he just chose the most haode among them.
Sephiroth's good deeds are widely spread among pure-blood wizards, and after coming to Hogwarts, there is no need for Sephiroth to take the initiative to promote himself, other pure-blood wizards will mention a few words in their daily lives, intentionally or unintentionally, and his genius name has long spread throughout Hogwarts.
Proud of his good reputation since childhood, Sephiroth is secretly admired by many Hogwarts girls. The West is different from the East in terms of subtlety, and there is not much need for them to worry too much about inviting a dance partner.
"Oh? Which lucky girl actually got my genius brother? My sister laughed and shouted, "I still have a few good friends who have asked me to ask for information, and it seems that they are hopeless." ”
"A third-year student in Ravenclaw, you know, is Miss Pache Noregi, who is known for her literary fame."
had no intention of hiding it, and was teased by his sister, Sephiroth behaved quite calmly. He was methodically doing his homework that he hadn't finished before, a four-inch long history of magic assignment.
"Ahh It's that Miss Vanilla, it seems that my brother's charm is really not small, even such an elegant senior sister has hooked up. ”
My sister's mind instantly appeared with the appearance of this Miss Hugh Dafeldt, with long purple hair draped smoothly behind her, two braids tied up with bows and hung on her chest, and a white and delicate face always with a faint smile. Holding a book in his hand at all times, he sees it as a part of himself, and claims that he can't live without it.
Although she looks a little sickly, silent, and a little gloomy, her level of magic is surprisingly high, and her talent in alchemy is even praised by professors, and it is said that there are many teenagers in Hogwarts who admire her, from Slytherin to Gryffindor, in each grade.
I didn't expect my younger brother to be so capable.
Sephiroth's sister looked him up and down as if she had known her brother for the first time. Don't look at Sephiroth coming to school and soaking in the library every day, looking like he didn't do anything, and he hooked up with this Ravenclaw yard girl without saying a word.
I don't know how many adoring teenagers' fragile hearts will be shattered to the ground at the Christmas party.
"Looks like I'm really worrying about it for nothing......"
Disappointed, she threw herself on Sephiroth's bed and rolled around, and her sister seemed very sad.
"Don't talk about me, but was my sister invited by the boy?"
It's not a good thing to always burn the fire on yourself, and sometimes it's time to move the conversation back to the other person, Sephiroth thinks.
"Who do you think your sister is, if you need to be worried about your younger brother, wouldn't it be too faceless! Early, it was done easily. This kind of trivial matter, casually, just hook your fingers and it's over. ”
My sister blew up all of a sudden, doesn't asking this say that she is not attractive? Even if it's true, what girl would admit it in front of a boy.
"Well, I won't tell you, I'm going back. Prepare for it! Oh yes! I almost forgot, listen up, because Slytherin students have always been well-groomed, so the lead dancer of the Hogwarts ball has always been done by the Slytherin principals, so you better be prepared. ”
Dropping such a sentence, my sister had to run away.
Lead dancer?
It seems that it is another good time to raise awareness.
However, in this case, we will have to consult with Miss Norreki first.
In his heart, Sephiroth was still very satisfied that he could receive this invitation from Noreji Senpai. After all, men, even if they don't like it, they will still be happy if they are invited by beautiful women.
I didn't expect that just reading books together in the library and chatting about magic together, I could get such a big surprise.
Those seniors who gave flowers, gave gifts, and tried their best to confess were really in vain.
