Chapter 38: The Tail Line

Time flies, and since the sudden blizzard that day, the snow has never stopped.

Soon, another Christmas arrived.

This is the second Christmas that Mu Yan has spent in this world.

Two years have left nothing on him except for a few centimeters taller.

The young face is still immature, and the thin body has not become strong because of frequent visits to the kitchen, but has become a little thinner because he often lies in the school doctor's room.

He wrapped himself in a thick blanket and shrunk into the couch by the fireplace, his face looking a little drowsy.

He didn't go back to the orphanage this Christmas, and the increasingly tight time didn't allow him to waste any more.

On this Christmas night, at the invitation of Harry's trio, he had been experimenting all night for two days, and after the dinner, he still dragged his tired body to the Gryffindor common room to participate in the trio's "Christmas unpacking activity".

"Oh my God, haven't you slept in three days, Mu Yan?" Hermione, who brought Mu Yan a blanket, exclaimed.

Seeing Mu Yan's undisguised distress and pale face, she reached over with some worry, as if she wanted to open Mu Yan's eyelids to examine him.

Born into a family of dentists, she has some experience in this area.

But her hand was caught by Mu Yan in mid-air.

In the surprised eyes of everyone, Mu Yan pulled that hand in front of him and sniffed it gently.

A warm snort poured on the back of the delicate hand, and a crispy tingling sensation came from the hand.

Hermione froze in place for a moment, her delicate little face flushed like a ripe red apple.

The people around the Christmas tree who were about to open the gifts were even more shocked and opened their mouths one by one.

This...... That's too bold! It's so sudden!

But...... It's exciting!

Hermione pulled her hand back with lightning speed, and jumped back a few steps like a frightened young beast.

Then he stood still, looking at Mu Yan with a panicked face, maybe even she didn't know what she was thinking now.

Mu Yan was still calm, even a little sluggish, and he raised his eyelids weakly and glanced at Hermione.

"Polyjuice decoction?" He asked faintly.

Harry and Ron didn't know what to say for a moment.

How can such an exciting thing be so pale after revealing the truth?

And...... You know such a secret thing!

Both of them had dog-like expressions, and the secrets they had been planning for several days were ruthlessly revealed.

Fortunately, Mu Yan is not an outsider!

Harry and Ron looked at each other.

The expression on Hermione's face gradually changed from bewilderment to surprise, but the blush on her face had not faded: "You...... How do you know? ”

"It stinks!" Mu Yan threw out this answer without thinking, and turned his body to the side, as if he wanted to find a comfortable angle to lean on.

Hermione's face turned pale in an instant, her fingers trembling at Mu Yan, and her mouth trembled and she didn't know what to say.

It stinks......

It stinks......

Too......

……

The three words of understatement were like the most powerful spiritual magic that ruthlessly destroyed her mind and instantly sent her from heaven to hell!

What girl can tolerate the smell of her body all day long?

She subconsciously raised her hand and sniffed it, it was okay not to smell it, but when she smelled it, there was a faint smell of urine coming from above.

Hermione only felt that in the short few minutes of talking to Mu Yan, her mood was like a roller coaster, rushing into the sky, and then suddenly diving to the end at a 90-degree right angle, and then rushing directly into hell without stopping......

Suddenly, her nose was sore, and suddenly an unstoppable grievance came to her heart.

Compound decoction is also relatively complex in high-grade potions, and it is almost impossible to succeed in boiling such a pot without a five- or six-day round-the-clock guard.

And it was clear that she was the only one in the trio who had the ability to make this potion.

In the past few days, she has been almost staying in the women's toilet boiling this pot of decoction, and it is really normal for her body to be stained with the stench of compound decoction.

But even if you know that this is normal, few girls can endure this kind of naked disgust in public!

Her eyes were red, and she almost wanted to turn away.

"Use mine next time, I've got a strawberry-flavored one." Mu Yan's voice came from the wrapped blanket again.

"Huh?" Hermione couldn't believe her ears.

"I said......" Mu Yan popped out of the blanket and half of his head, "I have a strawberry-flavored compound decoction recipe, although the time is a little shorter, but it tastes good, I can give it to you if you want it." ”

After using this foul-smelling potion last Christmas, Mu Yan vowed to make a good tasting potion, and after a few experiments, he actually made a strawberry-flavored compound potion.

Although the time to maintain the transformation is shorter than the original potion by half an hour, and the complexity has increased slightly, but a beauty covers a hundred ugliness, and Mu Yan's formula is destined to be loved by the majority of wizards just by virtue of the advantage of good taste, especially in the wizarding world of Harry Potter, where life is stable and there is not much crisis, this formula is destined to be loved by the majority of female wizards.

Hermione suddenly burst into tears.

So you're talking about this! Can we just get straight to the point when we talk in the future?

Soon the crowd was in a mess again.

Ron's sister, Ginny, laughed as she hugged her newly purchased clothes.

She didn't come home this year, and as Ron's sister was invited by Harry to join the party.

I have to say that Ginny is indeed a beautiful embryo, with long red hair blazing like fire, and a delicate and snow-white face under the long hair, she seems to be an enthusiastic and unrestrained girl, but she is actually a shy little sister.

Mu Yan was also amazed when he first saw him.

Except for Ron, who is genetically mutated in all aspects, the other Weasley family seems to be quite good-looking.

Mu Yan's gaze lingered on Jinni for a moment, and then she was once again in the blanket.

Half of the reason he came to this party was because of her.

It's not that Ginny is really beautiful enough to make Mu Yan fall in love with it, but according to the original plot, Tom Riddle's (Voldemort)'s diary should be on this girl now!

But so far, just looking at the surface, Ginny is still quite normal now, although she has caused three attacks, but on the surface, she still looks like a new student who has just entered the school and is ignorant, and there is nothing unusual.

"-Look what's inside!"

On the other side, Ron and Harry were already scrambling to tear open their Christmas presents.

"This is the milk gummy Hagrid sent me!"

Harry pulled a bag of gummies out of the box and screamed in surprise.

"Oh!"

Next to him, Ron dragged a red sock out of the box with two fingers, and said depressedly: "Why is mine a sock again!" ”

"This is what Mom knitted for you with leftover wool." Ginny interjected, "She thinks red brings us good luck!" ”

As she spoke, she took out a pair of red gloves from her box and shrugged helplessly.

Hahaha......

In the bustle, everyone opened the gifts they received one by one, and from time to time there were voices of cheers and chagrin.

Mu Yan shrunk on the sofa and continued to doze off, his gifts were all placed next to his bed, and Xiao Jelly Bean wasted a lot of energy to help him take them all in.

This time, I didn't bring it because I came here directly after dinner.

Everyone made a fuss for a while, and soon it was time to exchange gifts.

Mu Yan also stretched his head out of the blanket and cheered up.

Harry received a copy of the Quidditch bestseller Flying with the Artillery and a quill pen from Ron and Hermione.

Although Ginny had no money to sell, she wrote him a greeting card.

Putting away the three things, Harry looked up at Mu Yan.

Last semester, Mu Yan promised them that he would surprise each of them!

Mu Yan didn't look at him, but turned his head to look at Hermione, who was also a little expectant, and took out a package wrapped in colored paper and tied with a big bow from his pocket and handed it over.

Ladies are preferred.

Although I didn't say what it was, just looking at the appearance, several people had already guessed what it was.

Sure enough, Hermione opened it, and a brand new copy of the Latest Charms Revision Collection appeared in front of her.

Hermione grinned, revealing two small tiger teeth, and the previous unhappiness was swept away.

Turning to Ginny again, Mu Yan pulled out a beautifully made bookmark and gave it to her.

The bookmark features a ballerina that constantly spins, from front to back, back back and back again, and so on.

It seems that she didn't expect that she would have a gift, and when Ginny took the bookmark, she stumbled and thanked Mu Yan.

Mu Yan also answered two words such as unkind, and then took out the gifts of Ron and Harry that had been prepared earlier and gave them to the two.

Time always passed quickly in the laughter, and after an hour the sleepiness of several people gradually rose, and after saying goodbye to each other, they went back to their respective rooms to sleep.

Harry and Ron were in the same dormitory, so they walked straight back to the dormitory from the stairs in the common room, and Hermione left the dormitory through the other passage because she was in the same grade as them, and the dormitory could be reached quickly from the aisle on the other side.

Only Ginny and Mu Yan, one in the first year and the other in Ravenclaw College, walked out of the common room together and said goodbye at the staircase, Ginny walked down the spiral staircase, and Mu Yan walked in the direction of Ravenclaw.

The lights were dappled, and the two soon disappeared in the shadows.

In the hallway leading to the first-year Gryffindor dormitory, Ginny stopped, turned her head to look at Mu Yan's back that had long disappeared into the darkness, and turned to move on.

The dim light hit her face, reflecting a paleness and indifference!

Walking around the corner, she tossed a ball of paper into the trash can and walked into the dormitory at the end of the passageway.

The dormitory door closed slowly, and at this point in time, the girls in the dormitory had already returned, and there was silence in the passage.

The fat aunt in the portrait on the wall yawned and fell asleep.

She didn't notice at all, behind the frame, where she couldn't see, the shadows flickered, and a black robe stepped out of the shadows, suddenly appearing in the light.
