Chapter 54: The Headmaster's Proposal
"Neville?" Brandi closed her mouth in surprise. "Professor, didn't he stay well in the school hospital? Could something have happened to him! ”
"Ah, if you're talking about his physical condition, it should be considered healthy, but it's just that he is a little malnourished because of the lack of food." Dumbledore frowned in annoyance, as if he was worried about Neville's weight. "Obviously, the food in the kitchen is not bad, but I have already instructed the little ones to change their tricks......"
"Professor!"
"Oh, okay. I just wanted to give you a word of advice, Longbottom is in desperate need of your help right now. Dumbledore laughed, "I think he needs more psychological counseling than the sleeping potions Pomfrey gave him that left him delirious and confused—it's a shame, old man, I'm not very good at that." ”
Brandi was stunned.
"But the professor ...... Didn't Neville refuse to allow everyone to visit him? When I first went to the ward, he yelled at me, how could he need my help? ”
Dumbledore stroked his white beard like withered grass slowly, and after a while, he opened the drawer of his desk, took out two pumpkin pies, and stuffed them into Brandy's hands.
"That's something you should think about, Brandi. Remember what I said, you still need to get some stuff in Room 13. During Christmas, professors visit the wards once in the morning and once in the afternoon, at irregular times, and Pomfrey prepares sleeping potions for him two hours after dinner in the evening. So I suggest you take the time and ask everything you want to ask – be careful, the information is likely to be helpful. ”
With that, he waved his hand and impatiently drove Brandi out of the house.
"Really, can't you explain it a little bit! You have to ...... me here," Brandi walked out of the office and walked towards the break room. "Two pumpkin pies just want to buy me, where does he get his confidence!"
He sullenly grabbed the snack in his hand and took a hard bite, and after a few bites, he suddenly realized that there was a strange taste in his mouth. He hurriedly found a nearby bathroom and rushed in, spitting out all the contents in his mouth in the sink.
"Phew! What is this? Brandi spat out the slender thing in his mouth in disgust, and the next moment, his eyes widened in confusion. He stretched out his hand to grasp the pumpkin pie, which was wrapped with a few white filaments, which would look familiar. Thinking of Dumbledore's previous actions -
Ahhh Dumbledore's beard! It's disgusting to eat it yourself!
He subconsciously wanted to throw away those mustaches, but his half-outstretched hand suddenly froze.
Wait a minute...... He told me to go find Neville, who was obviously unwilling to see me, and then ...... Gave me a beard again?
Brandi stared thoughtfully at the beard on his hand.
……………………
The news of the attack on Justin and Nick, who was almost headless, had spread throughout the school almost before night. This turned the already tense atmosphere into a real panic...... People care more about Nick being hurt than about Justin who turns to stone, and you know, what kind of evil magic can hurt a disembodied ghost? What's more, people are still people who have died once. The students were really panicked and scrambled to book their seats on the Hogwarts Christmas Express, hoping to go home for Christmas.
Professor McGonagall was right...... Luna's fan fanning Nick to the Astronomy Tower was seen by many people, reminiscent of Brandi and Salph, whom she usually plays. If most people were skeptical that Sorf was the heir, now they are almost certain - Brandi and Luna are described as powerful and ruthless minions, specializing in stealing chickens and dogs or cleaning up the scene for the heir. The rumors spread so fast that even if Professor McGonagall was the first to come forward and clarify that Luna's actions at the time were approved by her, everyone would still shy away when they met the three of them. All sorts of amulets and metaphysical items are being hyped up in the school's underground black market, and Seamus buys a fang, supposedly vampire, and two bat ears — living directly in the same dorm room with Brandy, which worries him a lot.
"My mom is a real wizard in one percent! Brandy, even if you want to get rid of Muggles, don't come to me~" He said this to Brandi in a trembling voice, and then the next day, he went to the other dormitories to sleep with the other classmates.
Of course, there will still be people who scoff at the idea of what the heir is. In addition to the four members of Brandy's daily team, Fred and George would also be happy to wait in the hallway until Brandi passes by and then bow to him. Mouth shouted: "Salute to the heir of Slytherin ~ the most evil Dark Lord comparable to the mysterious man ~"
To be reasonable, even though Hermione has always been concerned about this, Brandi will still be happy. At least they're really making it a joke...... Especially when Fred pretended to be panicked and shivered in front of him with garlic and a cross, he would laugh with them unbridled - however, this antics seemed to infuriate Malfoy, who would look ugly every time he saw them do so.
"He almost wrote 'I am the heir' on his face." Ron said disdainfully, "See that distorted expression of his, jealousy has made him unrecognizable." Tsk......"
"Look, we'll have a way to get him to speak when it's time for the holidays."
In the bathroom, Hermione looked at the steaming silver mist of the crucible and nodded vigorously.
………………
Finally, the semester is over. The students hurriedly dragged the boxes and left the castle. Parvati had already signed the application to stay at the school, but it was unknown if her parents learned about the attack at the school through Padma, and with a yelling letter with a hometown accent, Parvati had to say goodbye to the four of them pitifully. The thought that she couldn't turn into another person to do something in Slytherin made her little face shrink into a ball of grievance, not to mention how sad it was.
"Hermione, leave me a small bottle of compound potion... I'm coming back to Ravenclaw to poison my sister! Love you~"
So Hermione gave her a hard look. "You obviously just want to keep a bottle for yourself! To poison Padma, do you still need to transform? Have the kung fu to deceive the eagle head knocker to ......"
Before Salf left, Brandi seriously explained to her about the family, he had already sent a letter to the family with an owl in advance, and mentioned to Shirley's mother that Sorf was going home for Christmas, but he was still very uneasy.
Salph carefully placed Fat Yale in Brandy's arms, looking at it with pitiful eyes. "Are you really going to make it lose weight? Actually, I think it's cute to be a little fatter. ”
Brandi looked at her expressionlessly, so Salph could only scream, silently pinching a cold sweat for Yale, who did not know his future miserable life.
"But don't say anything, Sharf, if my mother hears you shouting for your mother...... It is estimated that she can pull out a forty-meter-long knife and cut all the way up to South Africa - she was not as virtuous and virtuous as she seems when she was younger. Brandi muttered in horror, and Luna next to her was already carrying the box, which was crooked on Brandi's body, and she was almost about to fall asleep.
"Brandy, I'll take care of it~"
Finally, after Sharph's repeated reassurances, the two of them were able to escape, and Luna staggered behind Sharf with her suitcase and woke up like a dream, boarding the train, and the two of them waved softly at him from the window.
Brandi wrapped that grotesque stupid scarf around and held Yale in his hands, crying and laughing on the platform.
Take care of ...... What kind of answer is that?
As a result, the inside of Gryffindor's tower was emptied at once. With the exception of Percy, who swore that he was a full honor student and had a responsibility to support the teacher's work during this tumultuous time, both the Weasley brothers and Ginny chose to go to Egypt with their parents to see Bill. So the next morning, Brandi looked at the empty common room contentedly, and let out a long sigh of relief—the entire Gryffindor student could be counted on two hands, including the three in the ward. He was overjoyed at the thought that he was finally free to roam the castle at will.
I don't know if it's the Slytherin heir who also has to spend Christmas. After a few days of vacation, the castle was calm, which also gave them enough time to spend with myrtle. And when the dawn of Christmas came, Hermione appeared in their bedroom with a smile on her face, loudly announcing the good news that the Polyjuice Potion was complete.
"Wake up, stupid." She sat at Brandy's bedside with a wicked grin, touching his cheek with the cold brass spoon of the winter, and Brandi was awakened almost instantly.
"Hey! Hermione, people are scared to death! Too! Why are you in the boys' dormitory? He sat up from the bed in shock and looked at her in horror.
"Of course this is a girl's prerogative~" Hermione struggled to move Yale aside from him and threw a delicate little box to him. "Hurry up, the compound decoction is ready!"
Brandi looked at the sky that wasn't fully lit up, and then at Hermione, her face still faintly tired. Suddenly I felt both moved and guilty...... It was supposed to be his turn to go with Hermione today......
"When did you wake up......
"Five o'clock?" Hermione frowned and pondered, "No way, the last process will be carried out at that time...... Hmm, what do you think of me like that! Perverted! ”
Being stared at by Brandy's straight eyes, Hermione's face quickly turned crimson. She lifted the covers in shame and threw the medicine spoon into the collar of Brandi's pajamas......
"Yikes!" So with a scream like a pig, the other two lazy insects in the dormitory also had to get up.
