Every day, the Harry trio watched the fragrant Buddha jumping over the wall, the pot chicken, the cured claypot rice, the charcoal-grilled pork belly, the steamed pork ribs with soy sauce, the sweet and sour tenderloin, the pan-fried bacon enoki mushroom fat beef roll, and ...... in the cold cell, recalling the two meals without a trace of oil and water in the morning and evening, they first let out a weak cry, and then faced Zhang and Mu who were feasting in front of them, they gradually became numb, and no longer struggled in vain for this.

They numbly copied the school rules, and each day they could only judge whether it was day or night when the house-elves came to deliver food.

When the iron door of the cell creaked open, the three of them didn't react for a while, thinking that someone had come to bring them food.

"It's time, you three come out."

Moody's voice echoed through the dungeon, and after Harry pinched himself to make sure he wasn't dreaming, he got up from behind his desk and staggered out the cell door.

After stepping out of the cell, Harry turned his head to look next door, and saw that Ron was also turning his head to look at him.

Moody looked at the three people who were hugging each other and crying, and after a while, he said to them, "Let's go, there are people waiting for you outside." ”

Freed, Harry's trio wiped away their tears and strode out of the dungeon.

When Harry and Ron pushed open the dungeon door from the inside, Hermione behind them let out a scream.

Immediately after, after seeing clearly the people waiting for them outside the door, Ron also exclaimed, "Mom! ”

Harry squeezed himself hard again, but the pain told him he wasn't dreaming. It seemed as if he had pinched himself a little harder, and tears were pouring out of his eyes.

In the dungeon, Moody sat in the same chair he had been here to protect Harry for the past few days, pulled a cigar out of his pocket, lit it to the shouts of Mrs. Weasley coming from outside the dungeon, and smoked beautifully.

After he had eaten Zhang's mutton pot that day, Zhang prepared an extra torture instrument to torture Harry the next day, and gave him a large box of cigars. From now on, even if Zhang came late, he would not eat those torture instruments in advance.

Today is the first day of the Christmas break, and Professor McGonagall has released the Harry trio early so that they can be reunited with their families as soon as possible.

This made Moody's job easier, and he finally had time to get his newly purchased prosthetic leg fitted.

On the second day of the fair, Blake and Lupin went to the dungeon, and then Lupin gave him a shift, and Blake pulled him to a booth full of hands and feet inside the fair.

Blake tells him that Hogwarts has decided to pay for a prosthetic leg that is almost identical to his real leg. And whether his prosthetic eyes should be replaced or not is up to him.

It's just that the custom-made prosthetic leg had been made and shipped to the UK last weekend, and he didn't have time to put it on.

After smoking a cigar, Mrs. Weasley's scolding outside the dungeon had stopped. Moody's original fake eyes turned out the door, and through the thick stone of the castle, he saw Mrs. Weasley hugging the three young men tightly.

Moody didn't bother their reunion, pulling another cigar out of his pocket and lighting it.

Today is the day the students at Hogwarts go home for the holidays, and the students leave the school after breakfast. Some students take the Hogsmeade train home, while others reunite with their families waiting for them in Hogsmeade, where they will make their last big purchase before Christmas.

Just as the Harry trio and Mrs. Weasley were heading to the Headmaster's office to head to 12 Grimmauld Place through the fireplace there, Gabrielle grabbed Zhang Xu's hand on the central street of Hogsmeade and ran towards Duke Honey's candy store.

In the past two years, Gabrielle has grown a lot taller, and likewise, her strength has also increased a lot.

Gabrielle pulled like this, which touched the wound on Zhang Xu's hand, and the pain made him grin behind Gabrielle.

He suffered a little arm injury during the operation a few days ago, and it is not a big problem in daily life, but it will have to wait a day or two to heal. In the past few days, in order not to worry his family, he has been looking for excuses to recuperate in Hogwarts, and he did not appear until today after the Delacul family came to England.

Since this year's rare Zhang family is in the United Kingdom, the Delacour decided to spend this Christmas in the United Kingdom together, and by the way, discuss the wedding of Zhang Xu and Fleur in France next summer.

This is the scene where Zhang Xu took his sister-in-law shopping at Hogmodri today.

Today's Honey Duke Confectionery is no longer the bleak look of the beginning of the month, with sweets from all over the world filling every inch of counters and shelves.

Gabrielle, who got the guarantee that Zhang Xu could buy as much as he wanted, carried the basket in the candy store, and shuttled through the shelves like a fairy in the flowers, choosing his favorite candy.

At this time, the three Harry emerged from the fireplace at 12 Grimmauld Place, and Mrs. Weasley was the last to come out.

With the fireplace in the background, Harry was keenly aware that Mrs. Weasley had lost a lot of weight than before. But from the smile on her face as always, there was no trace of suffering.

Maybe it was because she didn't want Harry to see them.

"You guys wait here for a while, eat something first, I know you're starving all these days." In the dining room, Mrs. Weasley said to the Harry trio.

"Mom." Ron stood up and stopped his mother, apparently trying to ask her something.

But Mrs. Weasley smiled at him and said, "My dear, what you need most now is to fill your belly, and what will happen later, this holiday is still very long." ”

At that moment, a bowl of oatmeal, a small piece of cake, and a glass of milk flew over and landed on the table in front of each of Harry.

"You guys eat something first, you've been hungry for so long, you can't eat too much at once."

Waving her wand, Ginny stepped out of the kitchen next to the dining room. She knew what life the three had been doing during this time, and knew that their highest priority now was to get their emptied stomachs back to normal.

"Ginny!" Ron shouted, "Hurry up and tell us, how did Mommy get back?" ”

Ginny walked over to Harry and sat down, next to Harry's shoulder. She sighed and said, "Well, we don't know either. ”

"What?" ×3

Faced with questions from the three people, Ginny said: "Last week, my mother, who was unconscious, was taken to St. Mungo, and after being diagnosed by a medical professional, she was only very weak. ”

"Who rescued her?" Harry asked.

Ginny shook her head, "I don't know, St. Mungol's has no record, and no one has a memory of how my mother was admitted to the hospital, and by the time the medical doctors reacted, my mother was already lying in the hospital bed." Later, my father went to ask the minister, and when my father returned, he said that the minister had pretended not to know about it. ”

At this time, Hermione, who had not spoken, asked, "Ginny, is there a Daily Prophet here?" From that day to today. ”

"Yes, you wait." After Ginny finished speaking, she summoned a large stack of bundled newspapers with a flying spell, and the thick newspaper slammed on the table with a "bang", causing the plate of cakes on the table to jump.

"These are the newspapers you want." Ginny said to Hermione with a bitter face, "You cost me a galleon. ”

"Kreacher, are you there?" Shouting into the air this year.

With a snap, Kreacher appeared in front of Ginny.

Reluctantly, Ginny took out a gold coin from her pocket and handed it to Kreacher, saying, "Please give this gold coin to Hogsmeade Zhang Xu." ”

Kreacher muttered unsure of what to say, and as he took the coin, it disappeared with a snap.

"This morning, he made a bet with me that you would definitely ask for the newspaper during this period of time first, rather than trying to find a way to make up for the homework you missed during this time." Ginny shrugged her shoulders and said, "And I think the first thing that comes to your mind is how to make up for your missing homework." ”

Then Ginny waved her wand again, and a moment later a large stack of tied parchment flew in and landed in the center of the table.

"Well, that's the homework you've been owing all this time." Ginny pointed to the pile of parchment on the table and said, "Professor McGonagall and I'll tell you that you have to turn it in when the holidays are over. ”

Hermione's hand holding up the newspaper stopped, then trembled.
