Chapter 605: The Source of Strength (Asking for a Monthly Pass!)

As we approach June, the days become clear and cloudless, and the temperature becomes warmer.

The grounds outside Hogwarts Castle glistened in the sun as if they had just been painted, the breeze swept through the silky smooth grass, and the tempting summer breeze drifted through the windows into the castle, making you want to slip outside in the shade with a few pints of chilled freshly squeezed juice, play wizarding chess all day, or watch the giant squid swim dreamily on the lake.

Unfortunately, with the final exams approaching, the students had to stay in the castle, forcing themselves to concentrate on the mountain of homework and books to prepare for the final hurdle of the school year.

The common rooms of each college were remarkably quiet these days, except for the slightly different smell of food in the air, except for the turning of the pages and the scribbling of quills on parchment, and the prefects of each house seemed to be an unstable compound, and the slightest noise would become irritating.

I have to admit that Hogwarts did put a lot of thought into choosing prefects.

Traditionally, only the best students who enter Fifth Form are appointed Prefects, and Fifth Year happens to be the most critical year for young wizards at Hogwarts, as they will no longer face the school assessment, but the assessment from the Ministry of Magic's Wizarding Examinations Authority. LS (Ordinary Wizard Rank Exam).

To use an analogy, it's roughly the equivalent of having a struggling senior in charge of maintaining student discipline on a mixed schoolyard — the Weasley twins were severely punished by Percy for disturbing the quiet of the common room for fighting over a piece of chicken wing.

In fact, compared to these fifth graders, there is another person who is more nervous, and that is Hermione.

Perhaps stimulated by a Quidditch match, the little chocobo, who could not soar in the sky, seemed to turn all her anger and frustration into motivation to study, and like Elena, she applied to Professor McGonagall for her senior exams.

However, due to her own learning pace, Hermione only chose to take the second year written test.

And with Hermione's official declaration of war, the battle between Elena and Hermione on King Mountain has also become one of the focuses of attention of the little wizards, and Fred, George and others even secretly opened a gambling game in private, guessing who would be the one on it.

On the other hand, students in other grades are also working harder than before, especially second-year students.

The top students hope to teach the two arrogant girls a lesson with better grades, while the bastards pray that they won't be pulled too many points away from being criticized at the next parent-teacher conference.

As for Hannah and Luna, who are sandwiched between Hermione and Elena, these days are even more worrying about each day.

Although the four of them were still tired of studying and eating together all day as usual, the chilling feeling that lingered between Elena and Hermione often gave them the illusion that the two could fight at any time.

In fact, if "Minna" is just fighting a cold war, it's okay, it's a big deal to enter the state of autism and review, and wait until the end of the exam, the most important thing is that Elena also likes Hermione who takes the initiative to tease.

Especially when several people were eating in the school hall or gathering in the common room to review, Elena would always stuff Hermione with all kinds of food and snacks, trying to make the little beaver's body react......

Of course, from the perspective of a bystander, this can't be blamed entirely on Elena.

After all, every time Hermione eats these days, she always suddenly puts down her knife and fork from time to time, burrows under the table to get her school bag, and takes out one or two books to check a certain number or knowledge point, and whenever this time, only Elena dares to directly reach out and pull Hermione's school bag and books, forcing her to focus on the food in front of her.

With this school year, the tastes and preferences of the girls have long been imprinted with Elena's imprint, and in the face of the extremely targeted food temptation of the white-haired dumplings, it is difficult for Hermione to resist too much, on the one hand, she will be angry because she is disturbed, but on the other hand, her body is very honestly waving the white flag to announce her surrender.

This shameful contrast almost made Hermione cry in anger more than once.

And Luna and Hannah, who were watching on the side, were even more nervous, for fear that one day Hermione would suddenly lose it and slap the raspberry cake, blueberry pie, strawberry cheese, mung bean smoothie, mango ice cream, balsamic vinegar chocolate custard, golden potato mashed tart, pumpkin custard pudding, maple walnut crisp, caramel apple cheese pie......

All these devilish gifts that will tempt people to gain weight are all pasted on the face of the white-haired dumpling that is the root of all evil.

You must know that affected by the "Minna" war, the two of them have also gained a lot of weight recently.

Thankfully, this sinful day will soon be over.

............

Exam week has finally begun, and the castle is unusually silent.

In order to give the follow-up .ls and .. There is plenty of time and space for exams, and the exams for younger students start slightly earlier, so their results are usually released at the same time as the school leaving ceremony.

The first exam for Year 1 at Hogwarts, Charms Theory, was scheduled for Monday morning.

Although she had made complete preparations before this, as the exam approached, Elena gradually began to become nervous, and the test paper of the first exam will determine whether her original reasoning is true or not, as well as the completion rate of the follow-up plan.

Unlike Hermione's neurotic sensitivity, when Elena was nervous, she was more likely to be hungry.

"I'm so hungry......"

Hogwarts Great Hall, 8 a.m.

Elena glanced at the long table in front of her, and in a very rare way, grabbed a knife and tapped the plate.

As Dumbledore announced the start of breakfast as usual, it didn't take long for the empty table to be filled with all kinds of food, and since Elena didn't have much energy to come up with new dishes these days, it was all some daily breakfast.

In addition to the new additions to Hogwarts' breakfast list, such as eggs benedict, cheese hash browns, chocolate brownies, and maple muffins, there are also classic breakfast snacks such as fries, mashed potatoes, creamed corn, stewed beans, vegetable salad, fried eggs, grilled sausages, smoked bacon, and ......

It's just that although it sounds like there's a lot of everything, it's not the breakfast that Elena wants to eat the most at this time.

It wasn't until the day of the exam that she suddenly remembered the morning delicacies that she hadn't eaten for a long time and were far away in the East, although they were not as exquisite and expensive as Western breakfast, but they could give people a sense of confidence and peace of mind.

For example, the steaming tomato gnocchi soup only needs to be chopped and stir-fried a few times in the pot to turn into a rich and fragrant tomato juice......

Another example is the fried bun with crispy skin and filling, which is hot with juice in one bite, while tasting the fragrant, tender and fresh of the fried bun, while feeling the soft and chewy meat filling and the brown crispy bottom skin colliding between the lips and teeth......

And the spicy soup she had been obsessed with some time ago, which she hadn't eaten since she left Newmondgard Castle.

And in addition to this, there are Elena's favorite soy milk and fritters.

The fermented dough is intertwined with the hot oil, and the two bodies kneaded from flour are intertwined with each other, gradually expanding in the tumbling oil pan, showing a golden crispy aroma, loose, crispy, yellow, fragrant, rich in layered taste, and with a bowl of steaming, sweet and mellow freshly ground soy milk, it is simply the most perfect breakfast.

Of course, there is also the hometown of the soul, which is lively in the streets and alleys every morning, twist oil tea, pig blood soup, beef powder, oily noodles, puff pastry cake, pine nut roasted wheat, tofu brain, pancake fruit, leek box, hot and sour noodles, crab roe buns, duck blood vermicelli soup, chicken soup dumplings, preserved egg and lean pork porridge, Tie Xie mutton soup, sesame roast cakes......

Elena swallowed, and as the thought flashed, the tension in her heart had completely dissipated, all turned into a strong appetite, and she only felt that her stomach was chirping empty, like a black hole, able to stuff an infinite amount of food.

These are definitely much more fragrant than the oatmeal and bread in front of me.

Coming back to her senses slightly, Elena glanced at the Western-style breakfast in front of her and swallowed hard again.

The pressure of the exam has completely disappeared, and she suddenly has infinite motivation, and her thoughts have already flown to the moment when after the exam, with her efforts, how to turn all the breakfast in her mind into reality little by little.

Of course, this breakfast is still full, and she will not have any picky thoughts when she is already hungry.

With a wave of the knife and fork in her hand, Elena slice a slice of well-baked white toast, picked a large piece of soft and sweet butter with a dinner knife and spread it on the top layer, the creamy thick layer of butter adhered to the pores of the toast, and it was full of satisfying calories at first glance, enough to relieve her almost crazy stomach a little.

And just lubricating the sweet butter is certainly not enough, in the frightened eyes of Luna and Hannah, Elena directly scooped up a large spoonful of strawberry jam with a spoon and spread it on the bread slices, Hogwarts strawberry jam is freshly squeezed a little bit, and you can clearly see the strawberry particles distributed in it, exuding a slightly acidic fresh strawberry aroma.

After carefully spreading the strawberry jam on the top layer of butter, Elena sandwiched two slices of white toast together and took a look at them expectantly.

Crisp yellow butter and bright red strawberry jam spilled out of the cracks on the edge of the toast, clinging to Elena's fingers little by little, and a layer of satisfaction instantly welled up on the girl's face.

Although this is not one of those street breakfasts that haunts her, fluffy, hot toast, paired with mellow butter and sweet and sour jam, can still bring the purest happiness to a foodie.

Elena narrowed her eyes and gently licked the jam and butter off her fingers in satisfaction.

Sweet and calorie, this is the easiest thing to give strength.

Today's exam, she won!

I'm hungry, I'm hungry, I'm hungry......

As I wrote this chapter, my stomach kept growling, very loudly, and I wanted to go out for breakfast......
