Hoffa's brow furrowed.

He instinctively felt that something was wrong.

But I can't say what the problem is.

Seeing him frowning, the nurse on the side thought it hurt him, and comforted: "Bear with it, it will be fine soon." ”

They unfastened Hoffa's clothes in twos and applied medicine to the smashed area of his body, saying as they returned.

"Headmaster, this friend of yours is really strong. With such an injury, now I'm actually healed. ”

The nurse's hand kept pinching Hoffa's arm and back, and she said in amazement: "It's hard like iron, I really don't know how to practice it." ”

Ossivia crossed her arms, half teasing and half teasing: "That's how it is when you get beaten too much." ”

As he spoke, suddenly, the door to the infirmary was pushed open. A young man with blond hair walked in briskly through the door, his face pale and a somewhat uneasy smile on his face.

Oosivia said in front of Osivia with some slurred words: "The ships are ready, where are we going?"

"Gulf of Aden, Black Sea tour, such a trivial matter does not need to be specially asked me. ”

Ossivia said lightly.

"Okay."

The blonde man got the order but didn't leave, he looked at the muscular and smooth Hoffa on the bed with some uneasiness and hesitation, and what he wanted to say in his mouth was a little difficult to say.

"If you have something to say, say it! ”

Ossivia said impatiently.

"Oosevia, no, don't you want to introduce me?"

The man stammered and Ossivia said.

Osivia's brow furrowed, but she said, "This is the Hoffa I mentioned to you, Hoffa Bach. The legendary student of Hogwarts, the glory of Ravenclaw, is also a rare master of transfiguration. ”

She did not hesitate to introduce Hoffa with beautiful words.

As in Beauxbatons, Hoffa was ashamed to hear these titles, but he could not show them, so he could only accept them silently.

Ossivia then pointed at the blonde man.

"Here Vladimir Urigin is the head of logistics at the school. ”

Ossivia said, "My fiancé too. ”

Huo Fa was stunned for a moment, quickly stood up, and quickly stretched out his hand to the man in front of him, and the man immediately held his hand very enthusiastically after preparing for a long time, and stammered loudly: "Oh, yes, no, don't stand up, don't stand up, you, you're injured!"

He pressed him down on the shoulder, and said, "I, I've heard Romanova say about you, I, I thought you were the same age as me, no, I didn't expect it to look unexpectedly small, almost, almost like a freshly graduated student from our school."

Hoffa looked at this senior sister's fiancé carefully, and found that he seemed to have a bit of a stutter, his head was a little bald, and his appearance was not so outstanding. Urigin, that's not ... Headmaster Dumbledore's name on the letter?

He thought so in his heart, but he still held Vladimir's hand tightly and said, "Sister Osivia is like my sister, so I have to call you brother-in-law." ”

When the man heard this, he burst out laughing, and he kept stroking the back of Hoffa's hand: "That's too polite, I don't have any, I don't have any gifts, oh yes, I, I treasure two bottles of vodka."

He was so happy, but Osivyanche on the side looked very cold, and she coughed twice.

The cough made the fiancé's smile fade away, and he scratched his head curtly, and said, "I heard that Brother Bar Bach was the backbone of the hunting trap and held out for a full ten minutes before he was caught.

Hofa was a little embarrassed, and he said, "Indeed, that trap is very powerful. However, I recovered quickly and shouldn't have any major problems. ”

"It's so powerful, it's too powerful, I'm in it for ten, ten seconds, I can't hold it out, you, you can rest assured, I'll go get the vodka." This, this is the best liquor that Moscow has shipped, and we will have a drink tonight."

"Oh, you're welcome, I can't drink. ”

Hoffa hurriedly said. The Beauxbatons table had scared him before, and he really didn't want to repeat the same experience.

"Man, how can you not drink!?

Vladimir slapped Hoffa on the shoulder: "Legend, how can a legendary wizard be, no, there is no legendary amount of alcohol!"

Hoffa didn't know what to answer, so he could only look at Osivia.

"Alright, Vladimir, keep your hobbies to yourself. ”

Ossivia said coldly and strongly: "Go, check if everyone has boarded the ship, and leave immediately after checking, we can't stay in one place for too long." ”

Osivia's tone made Vladimir feel excited, he stood up like a scoop of cold water poured on his head, and said in a smooth and silky tone: "I know this, I have already asked someone to arrange it, but about dinner"

He pointed at Hoffa, his tone pleading.

Osiva looked at Vladimir with a somewhat complicated expression, hesitated for a moment, and sighed: "Go, I'll call you at dinner."

"Hah! Then it's decided!"

Vladimir immediately rejoiced again, pointed at Hoffa with both hands at the same time, made a gesture of drinking, and then left happily.

Looking at the back of Vladimir leaving, Hofa said: "He is very cute, enthusiastic and cheerful, and you are a good match for you." ”

"Huh, what do you little boy know?"

Osivia said dissatisfiedly, as if she had returned to the appearance of locking Hoffa in the hotel and not letting him go out.

"But, Mr. Urigin, aren't you the Headmaster, and why do they call you Headmaster Romanova? Hoffa asked.

"Hmph" Osivia pursed his lips disdainfully and said, "Two years ago, when the famous plague of lethargy appeared, and Principal Urigen died in a coma, leaving a mess left unattended, Durmstrang's people approached me, hoping that I could play for Durmstrang. It just so happened that I had my own hunting ideas, so I accepted Durmstrang's request. It's just that they also have some small conditions attached. Until that condition is fulfilled, I can only be the acting principal. ”

As she spoke, Ossivia showed Hoffa the wedding ring on her index finger. Hoffa immediately understood what the conditions were.

"I see, that Vladimir."

Hoffa asked tentatively.

"He's the only son of the headmaster, and you don't have to expect him to help you in your quest to destroy the Centaur King. Ossivia said, "Maybe you will be given two bottles of vodka before the war? Perhaps, if you really want vodka to give you courage." ”

Osivia's cold joke was colder than the Siberian winter, and the corners of Hoffa's mouth twitched a few times, but he didn't say a word.

If so, it makes sense.

It's just that he somehow sympathized with that Vladimir, and the senior sister of the Snake Academy didn't even change her surname, so she took the position of headmaster, which shows the tough and domineering style of Slytherin House.

Thinking about it, he suddenly felt a little confused. I couldn't help but shake my body.

"With some medicine, it has some sedative effect, and it may make you want to sleep, but it's okay. It's safe here. The nurse said beside him.

When Hoffa saw Ossivia pull up a chair and sit down beside him, he relaxed his mind and body, leaned back on the pillow, and as soon as his head touched the pillow, he fell into a deep sleep.

(In a daze, he sees himself strolling through an open field under the dark night sky, and hears someone calling his name.)

Hoffa turned his head to look, and behind him, he saw Miranda's thin figure. She was waving at him, trudging through it. He kept shouting something.

Hoffa stopped, also beckoning to Miranda, trying to get her to come to him, but the girl accidentally fell to the ground, Hoffa quickly turned around and ran towards Miranda's location, but when he came to the place where Miranda fell, it was empty. ）

A simple dream woke him up from his slumber in an instant, and he didn't know whether he was frightened by the sight in the dream or by the dream itself.

At this moment, the black ship was gliding silently on the deep bottom of the sea, and by the light on the mast, he could see some small deep-sea fish slowly following the ship.

Ossivia sat in a chair, reading a newspaper with Erlang's legs crossed, and said casually as she flipped through it: "Hofa, you're okay, I hear whose name you seem to have been calling." ”

"It's okay"

Hoffa covered his head and shook it vigorously, banishing the uneasiness from his brain.

"Are you going to dinner? It's almost time. ”

Ossivia said.

"Not too many people, just give me two loaves of bread. ”

Hoffa closed his eyes and said, he really didn't have the energy to deal with it now.

"You're sweet, Hoffa, and I don't have anything good to entertain you right now. Ossivia stood up and sighed helplessly: "It's just me and Vladimir, you know, he is my fiancé after all, a fiancé who doesn't have much security." ”

Hoffa quickly put on his black hunting suit and inserted the crosssword back into his back. He left the infirmary after Osivia. Along the way, he saw many of Durmstrang's students practicing duels in the cabin with their wands.

"It's the best way to keep yourself from being corrupted. ”

"Always on the way to battle," Ossivia said. ”

"It's amazing. Hoffa exclaimed.

Ossivia led Hoffa to the top cabin, through thick iron doors and cloaked guard wizards, and Ossivia led Hoffa to an office where the blonde-haired Vladimir was cleaning up a desk. Seeing Hoffa coming, he happily waved at Hoffa.

"I usually eat in the office, do you mind?"

Ossivia asked Hoffa.

"Of course not. Hoffa said.

Ossivia took Hoffa to sit at a small table that had been cleaned up improvised.

Vladimir served them several plates of thick sliced bread, some dry-cured fish, and some berries and caviar. Of course, he happily took out a bottle of dusty vodka and prepared to get drunk with Hoffa, but was glared back by Ossivia.

Compared to Beauxbatons's abundance, Durmstrang's environment was more relaxing for Hoffa, who broke a loaf of bread and slowly stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.

Ossivia asked, "Hoffa, I haven't seen you for so long, why did you suddenly come to Durmstrand?"

Seeing that he was finally able to get down to business, Hoffa straightened up and said, "Senior sister, Beauxbatons was destroyed, do you know?"

"Of course I know that the remaining wizards of Beauxbatons have now been placed in England. Are you worried that something will happen to us, so you came to warn us?"

"Exactly. Hoffa said, "If I could, I would like to stop the Centaur King here and kill him." ”

Ossivia shook his head, "Hoffa, we're not the pampered guys of Beauxbatons. Pierre's guy thinks he'll be able to escape the loss of mana by hiding in the school, but we don't think so, we know that this loss of mana will never stop until the half-human king dies, and until the mysteries and illusions of the wizarding world are restored.

For this reason, we have already set up a net on the Durmstrang campus, just waiting for him to come to us in person. Don't worry, as long as he goes in, he won't be able to get out. ”

At this time, Vladimir, who had no choice but to replace vodka with apple juice, also sat down at the table and said: "You have also experienced the power of that trap, it is Osivia's careful arrangement over the years, I and I were frightened by her at the time, but it will definitely succeed, let go, no matter who comes, you can't run away, haha..."

"Vladimir. ”

Ossivia coldly called out her fiancé's name.

The fiancé immediately looked straight, put away his hippie smile, and said solemnly: "We will not be destroyed." ”

But Hoffa was still not at ease, and he asked, "What about this ship? What if he is not looking for Durmstrang, but comes to find this ship?"

Ossivia shook his head: "Impossible, this ship is constantly passing through the Black Sea, he has no coordinates, it is impossible to find this ship." Even if there are coordinates, those coordinates are constantly changing. ”

Humpha, reassured.

But it was only a little reassuring, the encounter between Hogwarts and Beauxbatons had already made Hoffa know the destructive power of Sylby's terror, and Fatil's death made him understand that everything that was carefully prepared could be used all the time. In the face of that man, he did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

"So what's the worst possible outcome?"

Hoffa asked again.

"Worst outcome?" Ossivia was stunned.

Hoffa: "Yes, the worst possible outcome. Have you ever thought about it?"

"This"

Vladimir cut a piece of salted fish and stammered: "This is a bit unlucky, Brother Bach, we have been preparing for so many years, no matter what, we will not come up and talk about the worst outcome."

"Vladimir. ”

Ossivia screamed again.

The fiancé lowered his head again and remained silent.

"The worst outcome, I think, is that the living spirit is out of control. Ossivia said.

"What does that mean?"

Hoffa asked.

Ossivia put down his knife and fork and said: "Durmstrang's school has lived a patron saint since ancient times, we also call it a living spirit, within the scope of the living spirit, everything in Durmstrang will become a trap, it has been secretly guarding this school, which is why you were captured, that school, in a sense, is alive." ”

Hoffa thought of those terrible traps and nodded slowly.

"Are you saying that there is a possibility that the living spirit can get out of control?"

"Basically not, the living spirit has been under the control of Durmstrang since its birth, and it has never been out of control in history, stable and abnormal. So at this point, I don't think there's any need to worry. ”

"Why don't you worry. ”

Hoffa then asked.

"Huh?" Vladimir was a little unhappy, he said: "Brother Babach, Ossivia said that nothing will happen, just, just nothing will happen, you, you are, this is not to believe in our Durmstrang history and ..... and...thick, thick heritage!"

"Vladimir. ”

Ossivia frowned.

"Ahh ”

Vladimir, who had been continuously blocked, stood up with some annoyance and wiped his mouth, "You eat slowly, I... I....I went to check the student dormitories. ”

Watching Vladimir leave sullenly, Ossivia sighed: "I'm sorry, Bach. He hadn't met the Centaur King, and he didn't know your concerns. But he wasn't bad in nature. ”

"I understand, senior sister, I'm not here to find fault. I just, I have to make sure it's safe. Hoffa said.

"What you said makes a lot of sense, let's eat first, and after eating, I'll take you to check the state of the living spirit, which can be regarded as a routine check. ”
