Chapter 43: Christmas is coming

On the way back from Hagrid's Cabin, Hermione and Brandi walked behind. Ron looked a little embarrassed, as what he had just said to Brandi was clearly serious, and he pulled Harry far ahead. However, Brandi, who is very nervous about his own affairs, did not think about it so much at all.

"Hermione, does Professor Quirrell like Harry?" Brandi chatted casually.

"Like Harry?" Hermione didn't expect him to ask such a question, "Why would you ask that?" Professor Quirrell...... I can't say it, he seems to be very polite to everyone, but it doesn't seem to be the feeling between teachers and students. He didn't seem to have any special care for Harry during class, did he? Then again, why are you asking this? ”

"Because Parvati was making so much noise today, it felt like the whole world was looking at us, but Professor Quirrell and Snape were still watching Harry. I couldn't hold my back at that moment...... That's what knocked him headlong to the ground, and if he had the energy to look back, he should be able to easily dodge it. ”

"Huh? And this thing? I didn't even notice that! Hermione's eyes widened. Oh my God! Is it because of this Harry's broomstick that it sways from side to side? Oh! That's right! Now it all makes sense! ”

"Not? What are you talking about...... What makes sense. ”

Hermione looked at Brandi like she was looking at a hopeless fool.

"Snape probably wasn't the only one casting the spell on Harry at the time! There's also the possibility of a Quirrell! Hermione looked a little excited, "One was planning to kill Harry, and the other was trying to save him by chanting a protective charm, so Harry's broom twitched!" If Quirrell hadn't been chanting a protective charm, I guess Harry's broomstick would have swooped straight to the ground and killed Harry......"

"Hmm...... But does Professor Quirrell really have that strength? I mean, he's never shown even the slightest bit of magic in front of us, and I've never even seen him use a wand! How could you suddenly have such a profound skill as casting spells without a wand? ”

“…… Uh, if that's what you say...... Hermione tried to defend Professor Quirrell, but she was embarrassed to find that she really couldn't get any real evidence. If she had to choose a professor she didn't like the most among all the professors in the school, Hermione probably wouldn't choose Snape but Quirrell, because you really couldn't learn anything from his class. It's a complete waste of time.

………………

The days that followed didn't turn out to be Brandy's expectations, and the days after the game became a nightmare for him and Hermione. As long as they walked together, they could hear the whispers of their first-year compatriots passing by, and everyone looked at the two of them with the eyes of CP, Rao is a brazen person like Brandi who has to retreat under the scorching gaze, not to mention Hermione, who is thin-skinned and a little more serious.

Even more melancholy are the teachers with strong curiosity...... Professor Flitwick wasn't in the teacher's chair that day, he sat on the high platform of Ravenclaw, but he didn't know which Ravenclaw girl heard the exciting news, because his impression of Hermione was beyond imagination, he was now obviously standing with Hermione and Brandi's CP, and after several classes in a row, he would put Brandi and Hermione in a group, and then look at them with meaningful eyes and blushing and practicing spells, as if he was looking at his own granddaughter and grandson-in-law.

Ms. Sprout, who teaches the herbal medicine class, also took special care of the two of them, and during one class, she had to smile and let the two of them work together to demonstrate how to deworm the rhizomes of Asian and Tilian...... On the other hand, he was also embarrassed to talk about the understanding of the Chinese side and related allusions.

I said, Professor, can you be reliable! Is it really okay to teach students early in love?! Look at Professor McGonagall! People don't have so much, and they don't deliberately put the two of them in a group......

Well, she actually got Parvati and Brandi together...... He looked at Parvati as if to say, 'Come on, kid, I can only help you so much......

The only way Brandi and Hermione feel about this is that people's hearts are not ancient and the world is cold...... The number of embarrassments between the two in the past few days is estimated to be more than the sum of the previous eleven years.

Ah, of course, Parvati in this situation is naturally even more uncomfortable.

It's not that I'm being ridiculed, Parvati has always been shameless and doesn't know what shyness is...... Here is the condemnation that Parvati himself received on his conscience.

Almost every day, Parvati would be grinding and chirping in the library until Mrs. Pince was the last to return to the common room, first she would lie down at the entrance of the cave and look inside to see if Hermione was sitting in the common room waiting to clean her up, and usually there were only a few people left in the room at that point who were trying to catch up on their homework because they had overplayed in the afternoon. Then she would look over with watery eyes and make sure to the few of them if Hermione had gone back to sleep in the dorm...... Otherwise, she wouldn't dare to go upstairs to kill her.

Ron once prankfully told Parvati Hermione to be beaten up in the dorm room, so the next day everyone walked into the break room to find Parvati sleeping pitifully in an armchair near the fire. I didn't dare to enter the door all night...... As a result, the three people who saw this scene were no longer embarrassed to bully her, but treated her super well in those days, which made Parvati frightened for a day, as if he felt that he had entered a big conspiracy.

Of course, in order to teach her a lesson, everyone tacitly did not tell Parvati Hermione that she had actually forgiven her. After about a week or so, Parvati, who finally couldn't hold back her apology to Hermione, cocked her little tail again and returned to her original heartless appearance. It's just that Hermione is still much more well-behaved than before.

One December morning, Brandi woke up to find that Hogwarts had become a silvery white world, and that the small lake outside the school had become a thick layer of ice. This is certainly a good sign for these teenagers, so Hogwarts can be seen with ice sculptures made of magic and snowball fights by younger schoolers during recess and lunch breaks.

The Weasley brothers were beaten up for this, as they cast spells on snowballs, causing them to run after Quirrell and end up under his large scarf. Brandi, who heard the news, said that he couldn't understand that the magic resistance of the big scarf had obviously been tested in the Defence Against the Dark Arts class...... At least ordinary curses don't work. But why just smash the snowball is not a.

Brandi is always elusive these days, grabbing his schoolbag and running out of the classroom every time he gets out of class, and he doesn't study in the lounge at night, Harry and Ron once maliciously guessed that Brandi found a new little girlfriend in Ravenclaw, because Brandi and Ravenclaw girls have always had a good relationship before, and they will even joke with Hermione, saying that Brandi has two boats. But this is how to tease him, Brandi doesn't explain where he is, and even when Hermione asks him, he just makes all kinds of excuses to prevaricate, just says "You'll find out later". Hermione, who was angry, didn't talk to him in those days. If she had to say Brandi's name, she would call Brandi "that idiot...... Thankfully, Brandi's disappearance lasted only a week.

Every Wednesday and Friday in the middle of the night, Brandi always sneaks out of the break room and goes to classroom thirteen to continue practicing his magic, but I don't know if he has reached the limit of his potential, Brandi is a little frustrated to find that his magic recovery speed is basically not increasing, and the control of magic can only maintain the point of quickly cutting off the link. Unable to spell spells like the Transfiguration Charm, he had to come up with all sorts of excuses to fool the fat woman at the door. Thankfully, Fat Madame's temper was the best of the four House Common Room gatekeepers, and Brandi never caused Gryffindor any trouble. Eventually, the fat woman stopped asking Brandi where she was, and simply told him to come back early and be careful of Peeves.

Christmas is just around the corner, and everyone can't wait for the holidays, but the classes before the holidays are always the most unbearable...... Especially...... Potions lesson! Not to mention that as the holidays approached, Snape was finding fault with them more often, and even more so because they were taking classes with the 'noble' Slytherins.

"I really feel sorry for those people," said Draco during a Potions class. "They had to stay at Hogwarts for Christmas because the family didn't want them. ”

Brandi thought that he had spoken out of his denunciation of Harry purely because Gryffindor had won the tournament, and that Malfoy had become even more gloomy than before since Quidditch. He was outraged by the Slytherin defeat, saying that the next match would be a large-mouthed frog replacing Harry as the Seeker. He wanted to make everyone laugh, but no one found his words ridiculous, as everyone admired Harry for being able to stay firmly on his rampage broomstick. Jealous and angry, Malfoy turned around and laughed at Harry for not having a decent family.

Harry himself didn't have any particular idea of not going home for Christmas, especially when Professor McGonagall came over to register the list of students who stayed on campus for the holidays, and Harry signed it almost immediately. At the time, he said to Brandi in such a serious way, "I don't expect to go back to that damn place, you guys are here!" It has to be the best Christmas I've ever had in my life! ”

Hey, it moved Brandi to tears at the time, and decided to stay with Harry for the holidays...... As a result, he regretted it shortly after signing his name... Because Shirley's mother sent a reply letter from Hedwig, saying that Daddy Kozmo was going to take her to Hawaii for Christmas... Oh my God, that's Hawaii!

Sunlight! Sand beach! There is also a young and beautiful young lady......

Hey? Wait, so Daddy Kozmo is also ill-intentioned~

The scheming Brandi smirked and tied a reply to Mom to Hedwig's feet, secretly looking forward to Papa Kozmo's 'blissful' vacation in Hawaii.

Ron and his two twin brothers are also going to stay, as the Weasleys appear to be going to Romania to see their Charlie... Well, it's the first brother to come; Parvati was going to stay, but she was sneaky and didn't say why, except that Hermione was going home for Christmas, but she promised to give everyone the gift she liked on Christmas Day.

Of course, this doesn't seem to include Brandy......
