The continuous cold rain lasted for nearly five days, and by the time it cleared, it was the middle of December, and Christmas was approaching.

The students of the three schools had apparently known about the Christmas Ball for a long time, and they were busy inviting others to the ball like butterflies in flowers, and the combination of men and women on the grass gradually increased.

Krum's appeal was huge, not only because he was a warrior, his tall stature, and tough appearance was quite popular, but also because of his perfect performance in the first event, which also greatly added points to him, although Durmstrang's students probably knew that he would invite Daphne to the ball, but the students of other schools did not know it.

During this period, an interesting incident happened, Ning An accidentally ran into Hibiscus on the grassland? Dracul, it may have been an accident, it might have been carefully arranged, but it didn't matter anymore, Fleur's blue eyes, long silver hair like a waterfall, and neat white teeth were enough to attract the whole mind.

Ning An didn't have much feeling for the appearance, but when Fleur spoke, she had a slightly hoarse guttural voice, which made people feel a little charming.

"You did a great job on the first project."

She spoke with a unique confidence, and now looked at Ning An with a sense of appreciation

"I can see why you're so calm in the waiting tent—"

The woman chuckled, and suddenly showed a variety of charms, like a palace flower blooming in a gorgeous garden, and for a moment, Ning An's breathing was stagnant for half a second.

"I'm sorry for the rudeness."

"No, that's nothing, I was stupefied when I first saw the dragons, oh my god - look at them so big, they breathe fire-"

Ning An waved his hand, making an exaggerated expression as he described the Chinese fireball he had encountered, causing Fleur to let out a burst of laughter like silver bells

"Giggles, yes, I'm terrified, too—I didn't expect Wales to have such ferocious dragons."

She blinked and looked at Ning An, Ning An also looked at her, Fleur was the oldest girl she had ever known, and she had a special royal sister temperament, especially the feeling of self-confidence, which was not lost to Hermione at all.

"You...... It's a little different from what is rumored. ”

There was silence for a few seconds, and something special was between the distance between the two of them, Fleur? Dracul silently spoke:

"If we had known you were such a person, maybe we could have been friends sooner."

"It's not too late, is it? Wizards can live for years. Ning An mo/mo nose said with a smile.

"Hahaha-"

This time, Fleur no longer covered her mouth like a big lady, but laughed happily, leaning back and forth, Ning An was also a little surprised, and then she was infected by this laughter and laughed.

He didn't think what he said was funny, but the smile was contagious, and he hadn't laughed uncontrollably for a long time, so venting like this also made him feel a lot more relaxed.

"Hey, Wicktore—" Fleur quietly called out Krum's name

"Huh?" Ning An raised her head, put away her smile, and was greeted by a pair of bright silver eyes, and the unique charm of Meiwa bloomed in her eyes.

"You said that if two warriors formed a dance partner for the Christmas party, would it make the professors and students drop their jaws?"

Two red glows flew up her snow-white cheeks, and she didn't look away after saying this, but stared at Ning An with those charming eyes, but the constant boo/nong fingers and undulating chest betrayed her apparent composure.

It must be very embarrassing to be rejected, and she should have asked Victor if he had a dance partner beforehand, but Fleur didn't do that, because she believed that her proposal was absolutely huge and no one could compete with it.

Think about it, two warriors will be married to a banquet, they will become the most high-profile stars, everyone will be frightened, even Madame Maxim will probably count her down afterwards, this is too controversial, but it is also exciting, isn't it?

Victor will figure it out, and Fleur is convinced that even if he has a dance partner, he should know who is the right one to choose.

What's more-

Hibiscus seemed to inadvertently liao/bo the silver hair next to her ear, and put the hair that was likely to shine behind her ear, like a beautiful thrilling picture.

Ning An smiled bitterly, he didn't plan to go to the Christmas Ball at all, Fleur's actions really flattered the blind man, although Fabian probably wouldn't refuse to have such a big beauty accompany him to the ball, and Daphne was also not interested in the ball without Ning An.

But he knows very well that he is not Krum, nor is Fabian, in order not to show his feet, for the sake of safety, he can only let two familiar people go together, so he will never agree to Fleur's invitation, even if the other party is indeed beautiful and temperamental.

And the two warriors attending the ball together is indeed an exciting gimmick.

"I'm sorry, but I have a dance partner."

Ning An still said something that surprised Fleur, she thought he would make a wise choice.

"Uh-well-uh-"

But soon Fleur regained her composure, and even though it was difficult to hide the disappointment and gloom on her face, she still took a deep breath and said calmly to Ning An:

"I was reckless in not asking—then, Merry Christmas to you—"

There was no need for her to stay any longer, Fleur turned around, her long silver hair like a waterfall sliding in the sun, and she walked away step by step, without looking back.

Ning An sighed and turned back to the cabin of the big ship Durmstrong, he had other things to think about.

Christmas is not only about the students having a prom, but also about preparing gifts for those around him, Daphne and Fabian say that Charlotte the Banshee is the first Christmas after many years, according to her, the Banshees in the Black Forest are not Christmas, and the bear she often holds is still the Christmas gift she received when she didn't live in the Black Forest.

Obviously, the little guy is very much looking forward to the festival and receiving gifts, and has asked Ning An what he has prepared for himself many days in advance, Ning An has no choice but to say that it is secret and confused, in fact, it is really difficult to find something that can be used as a gift at Hogwarts.

If there is only one place where you can buy gifts, it is probably Hogsmeade.

Ning An had to chou/chu for a day and went to Hogsmeade.

"Ning An, aren't you going to go with Furong to pick out gifts?"

Daphne stood in the doorway, holding her hand to the door frame and smiling and joking with him.

"I've turned her down, and besides, she's inviting Krum, and most likely because she thinks the combination of the two Warriors will be very eye-catching."

"But that's because you're not going, and if you're going to the ball, do you dare say you won't agree to Delacul's invitation?"

Daphne's tone was a little more serious, Fabian was pretending to be asleep on the couch, Charlotte was holding the bear puppet in her left hand, and the Chinese fireball model that Ning An had given her in her right hand, standing in the doorway and staring at the two of them blankly, as if she didn't understand what they were talking about.

Maybe she really didn't understand, the little banshee was still a child, very simple.

"If it's really me going, I won't agree, won't I invite you all-"

Ning An spread his hands helplessly, in the snake letter, he had no way to take Daphne

"And this is my room, well, why did you come here early in the morning to ask about this?"

"I heard that you were going out to see you off, okay." Daphne laughed again at this moment, shook her long golden hair and "snorted", but she went out before Ning An and went back to her cabin.

"Whew-"

Sighing, Ning An shook his head helplessly, and then was about to push the door and leave, but the trouser leg was grabbed by a small hand, and Charlotte asked timidly behind him:

"Where is my brother going?"

Ning An turned around and squatted down, patted Xiao Lori's shoulder, and tidied up her collar for her:

"My brother went buy Charlotte Christmas presents."

"Can Charlotte go along?"

"This ......"

Ning An hesitated, Hogsmeade was too eye-catching, maybe it was not a good idea to have Charlotte, not to mention that he had now become like Krum, and it was absolutely impossible to lead a strange little girl.

But on the other hand, he could see that Charlotte had been stuffed in the cabin during this time, although she was very obedient and didn't say anything, she definitely longed to go outside more, and Ning An couldn't bear to refuse her.

"Charlotte can be quiet, invisible, just like last time."

"Okay."

Ning An gritted his teeth and agreed, he gently knocked on Charlotte's head with his magic wand, and it was like mercury pouring on the ground, as if transparent cold water was pouring down from her head, painting the girl's whole person exactly the same color as the surroundings.

"Let's go."

He told Charlotte to tighten the corners of her clothes, and the two of them headed to Hogdmoth.

Fortunately, today is not a weekend, there are not many students who go to Hogdmo, most of them are students from Durmstrang and Beauxbatons who visit outside the school, and there are students who say hello to 'Krum' along the way.

When he entered the village, he changed his little finger to hook Charlotte's little hand, and his movements were hidden and no one could see it, so the two of them wandered around the magic village.

Charlotte really likes a lot of things, especially when she goes to a candy store or something, and when she sees the bubbles in Duke Honey that can make the bluebell-colored bubbles float in the room, she starts to shake Ning An's fingers desperately, and Ning An even feels that her little finger is about to be broken by the girl.

So he bought the bubble gum, and then Charlotte saw the small, black and very interesting black pepper naughty boy and the thin crispy feather candy made of sugar silk and the explosion of the sandwich gummies, and asked Ning An to buy them.

When he came out of Duke Honey, Ning An was already carrying several large bags of candy in his hand, fortunately it was Krum's money that was spent, and he didn't feel distressed, and the Quidditch player of the Bulgarian national team was not short of money, but the students who came to Hogsmeade to meet 'Krum' were greatly surprised.

I didn't expect Krum, who looked tall and cold-looking, to be so girly at heart and like sweets so much.

This makes Ning Ansheng embarrassed, but fortunately, everyone thinks they are Krum, so be it, it's a big deal not to hurt your life, just let you carry this, Krum.

Ning An muttered silently in his heart, not knowing whether Krum, who was controlled by the Imperius Curse and the Stuna Charm, would feel happy or sad to hear it.

Anyway, the shopping was not over yet, Ning An wandered around the magic equipment store of Devis and Bans for a long time, trying to find a gift for Daphne, but he didn't feel like it was to choose and choose, and finally had to buy a quill pen that would take the initiative to write a short story to you every day at the literati residence quill shop.

As for wanting to hear sad, bizarre, thrilling or even boring jokes, you can explain to this pen in advance, and Ning An bought it because she thought it was very interesting.

Then he chose a book for Fabian, as a half-blood giant, he seemed to have a special affection for those giant, magical creatures with sharp teeth and rough skin, and Ning An remembered that when he gave Charlotte the dragon model, the envious look on Fabian's bearded face was even stronger than Daphne's.

So he bought a copy of "The Man Who Dote on Dragons" and planned to give it to Fabian, as for whether this will prompt him to really make plans to buy a dragon and raise it back, it is not Ning'an's business, Germany is not Hogwarts, and with Fabian's status, this is probably not an impossible thing.

I bought a lot of the rest of the things, some of which were going to be given to Astoria and Eric, and Ning An also bought a pocket speculum for Malfoy, after all, this kid can be regarded as doing his best, in fact, Ning An wanted to see how long Malfoy couldn't help but throw this thing away, in fact, he almost smashed the speculum himself.

Because since I bought it, as long as I take it out, it will keep shining and spinning, and then Ning An woke up probably because he was a fake, so this thing would be noticed.

In this way, I also changed my prejudice, and I thought that the detection scope might be a good gift.

The two can be said to have returned with a full load, Charlotte hummed happily on the way back, and Ning An carefully hid the gift in her box and took it out before Christmas.

However, when she returned to the cabin, Ning An reacted, and turned around as if she had bought everything, but in the end she forgot to buy a gift for Charlotte, and now the little girl has not reacted, but it will not be easy if she notices herself.

At this moment, a flash of inspiration flashed in his head, and he thought of the most suitable gift for a little girl.

"Charlotte—"

Ning An squatted down and looked at the banshee holding the doll in her mouth and the banshee in her arms, she was almost unable to hold anything.

"Why don't I give you a Christmas present in advance?"

"Okay, okay—"

The Banshee ran over excitedly, her four-toed feet making a "snapping" sound on the cabin floor, she didn't care about Christmas or anything, as long as she could get a present.

Daphne came over again at some point, sitting on the sofa and looking at Ning An from afar with a smile, not knowing what he was going to do this time.

I saw Ning An holding his own ebony wand, pointing at Charlotte, the light in the room dimmed, as if it had been sucked away by the wand in an instant, and then the tip of the wand spewed out a stream of colorful light, shooting straight into Charlotte's arms bear puppet.

As if something had happened, as if nothing had happened, everyone was stunned and waited with bated breath, and then, in Charlotte's frightened eyes, the Muppet Bear broke free from her arms, jumped to the ground, and fell to the ground like a newborn baby, and stood up tremblingly, although he could not speak, but made distinct movements.

Daphne opened her mouth, speechless, she didn't expect Ning An's gift to give life to the bear, this is not a simple magic, she asked herself if she could use it, thinking of this, she sighed deeply.

"Well, it's not the same now, maybe you should give it a new name?"

Ning An said with a smile, Charlotte looked at the little bear who was walking step by step on the ground, trying to walk, and looked up happily and confusedly

"What's it called?"

"Why don't you call it Fudge?"

"Fudge?" Charlotte muttered, then smiled

"Fudge sounds good, let's call it Fudge!"

Charlotte and Fabian sat on the couch in the back, holding back their laughter, wondering how the British magic bu/zhang would feel when they heard the doll's name.
