December 25, 1993.

Elsewhere in the castle, colorful Christmas decorations are laid out as in previous years.

These costumes are the work of Professor Flitwick and Hagrid.

Thick ribbons of holly and mistletoe were drawn up in the hallway, and mysterious lights flashed in each suit of armor.

As usual, the auditorium was filled with twelve Christmas trees that Hagrid had just cut down and had snow on them, with golden stars shining on them. A rich and enticing culinary aroma permeates the campus.

The scent reached Harry's Cottage, to someone who was still asleep.

So on this Christmas morning, Harry took that Zhang Qiu, Hermione...... There is also a lovely Astoria, but the key parts are floating white clouds, and the body is full of delicious food to wake up in a heavenly dream.

Harry sat on the bed, staring blankly.

He wiped his saliva away and cursed secretly: "It's just a little bit, I'm going to blow that damn cloud away from Zhang Qiu." ”

"Meow...... Meow ......" the cutie looked at his master with concern. (Level 10 cat language: Master, why are you drooling, your eyes are so terrible...... ）

Harry did what he did when he got up: he picked up the cutie and shook it vigorously: "Change for Lao Tzu!"

The cutie didn't give him any response.

In the living room, Hermione was making her final sprint, and the phrase of grinding her gun applied everywhere.

It can be seen that Hermione is very unstable and her mind is not invested in the book at all.

Seeing Harry come out, Hermione said, "Harry, I know it's impossible for you to let this happen now, but that 10,000 gold Galleons is not too ......"

Harry said, "I don't take it personally, and you don't have to be stressed." Take 10,000 steps back, and if you really lose, you can give it back to me. ”

Hearing this, Hermione was relieved.

It turned out that what she had been worried about was because of Harry's trust and self-blame for failure, and the more Harry said that she only needed to compete, the more she thought about the result of failure.

"Whew. Hermione breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, but let's say it first, I can't get out 10,000 gold Galleons right away, you have to wait for me to join the work and slowly ......pay it back."

Harry picked up a glass of warm water and gulped it off.

casually said, "It's okay, it's okay to use other methods." ”

"How?" said Hermione, looking at Harry.

Harry gave a shy smile, "Flesh pays." ”

"I'll count you as a bronze nat at a time, only 10,000 gold galleons, not much. ”

Hermione subconsciously used her little head to do the math, and then ignored Harry's beastly words, but stared wide-eyed, and said, "One gold galleon is equal to 493 nat, nearly five million times!"

Hermione's focus is truly peculiar.

Harry smiled: "I'm not a devil either, how about giving you a membership price, a 20% discount, 0.8 nat a time?"

Hermione immediately lowered her head and refocused her energy on the book, this time with all her heart.

Because she told herself: you must not lose!

Harry looked at this scene regretfully, "I thought it would distract you more, but in fact, losing is the best for me." ”

Hermione: "......"

......

At noon, Harry, Hermione, and Zhang Qiu went downstairs and came to the auditorium.

The four long dining tables of the academy had been moved to either side of the wall, and the auditorium seemed so large and empty.

A dining table for twelve people sits in the center of the auditorium.

Professor Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape, Professor Sprout, Professor Flitwick, Hagrid, Professor Lupin, Professor Victor, Miss Hodge, Professor of Ancient Magicxxx......

History of Magic class, Professor Binns, groggily walked through the wall and sat down at the end of his seat.

When he saw the dozens of students coming in one after another, Dumbledore stood up and said happily, "Merry Christmas! ”

It is true that in previous years, only two or three were left in school for Christmas, but this year some students felt that the Christmas competition was very interesting, so they chose to stay in school and wanted to see the show.

With a wave of his wand, Professor Dumbledore immediately placed two more tables for twelve in the center.

Tablecloths, candlesticks, flowers, cutlery, wine glasses are all available.

The students sat down and looked around excitedly and nervously.

They barely ever spent Christmas at school, and it was extra fun, with students from the four faculties sitting together and professors so close to them.

"Let's start with something celebratory. Dumbledore said with a smile.

On the next three dining tables, there was a huge colorful firework in front of everyone.

The students laughed and laughed and burst firecrackers, fireworks burst, and various scenery and characters appeared all the way up the auditorium, shining brightly. At the same time, there are many gifts falling from the sky.

The students were slightly interested in unpacking their gift boxes.

At the professor's place, Dumbledore took the lead in pulling off a firecracker, and boom, the salute exploded, and in the sky of salutes, a long brand new wizard's hat appeared.

Professor Dumbledore happily replaced his previous hat.

Even Professor McGonagall, who was always serious, pulled a smile at the corner of her mouth and pulled off a firecracker.

Snape's face darkened, letting the flowers fall on his face.

"Severus, what about yours?" Dumbledore greeted Snape with a smile on his face.

"Childish!" Snape whispered two words.

Then he pushed the cannon to Hagrid next to him with a look of disgust.

Hagrid gladly accepted, smiling like a six-hundred-pound child.

Dumbledore looked at the student and said, "I'm sure you all know what's going to happen later, and I dare say I've never experienced it in all my years of teaching at Hogwarts. ”

The students stared at Professor Dumbledore with shiny eyes.

"But before we do that, let's enjoy a big Christmas dinner. ”

Professor Dumbledore waved his wand, and the smell of food that had been permeating the campus since the morning appeared in front of everyone, filling the table like a hill.

"In addition, Professor Sinista of astronomy class is unable to attend today because of something. ”

"Professor, what about Trelawney teaching others?" said one of the students.

Professor Dumbledore said, "Rest assured, Professor Trelawney will definitely show up." ”

So the people in the auditorium began to eat formally.

As Harry was sipping on an unknown fruit drink with a sweet and sour taste, the Great Hall door opened again and someone entered.

It's Professor Trelawney.

The long clothes dragged on the ground, and the feet were not visible. As a result, she walked like a ghost.

Maybe it was because of Christmas, she wore a very festive dress, a green dress embellished with metallic sequins, and if she could stand a little farther away, the people who saw her might think of her as a giant mutated dragonfly.

"Sybil, I thought you'd be here after we'd finished eating. Professor Dumbledore stood up and welcomed Professor Trelawney.

"Are you insinuating that I'm too weak to come?" Professor Trelawney said in an impulsive tone.

"Of course not. Professor Dumbledore was embarrassed. Because Trelawney never speaks straight, only in the clouds, I didn't expect to be so grumpy today.

"Since you're here, let's sit down together, and I'll add a seat for you. ”

An armchair was conjured up and placed beside Hagrid.

Professor Trelawney said in disgust, "I don't want to sit with a monster with giant blood. ”

Hagrid's eyes turned red.

"Then sit next to Severus. Professor Dumbledore moved his chair to another place.

Professor Trelawney said lightly, "The smell of medicine on Snape is really unacceptable to me. ”

Snape's eyes narrowed, and the knife in his hand clicked, severing a bone.

Dumbledore said, "What about Professor Binns at the very edge?"

Trelawney said, "A ghost that has been dead for an unknown number of years will defile my heavenly eyes. ”

Professor Binns, who was forever dazed, came to his senses, his eyes wide open, as if he was not sure what he had just heard.

"Today, there seems to be something wrong with Professor Trelawney, very different from her usual behavior. Hermione said.

Zhang Qiu said: "Maybe it's the last madness, she is finally going to expose her true character." ”

Harry gave Professor Trelawney a cold look and said, "I thought Trelawney was a liar, but I didn't expect me to think too highly of her." It's stupid as a pig. I really thought everyone else was on the first floor, and she was on the fifth floor. In fact, she was buried in an underground coffin. ”

Hermione, Zhang Qiu was confused, not understanding what Harry meant.
