Chapter 55 of Halloween in another year
Jo dragged Luna to the Forbidden Forest. It's the first time he's here. After all, in the first grade, Quirrell (Voldemort) often went for walks, caught a unicorn, sucked blood or something. Joe didn't want to have a wonderful encounter with them. It is not in line with Joe's character to say that the precious herbs that grow in the Forbidden Forest and the resources on the magical creatures can basically be bought in Bogin Bock, and why do you have to risk your life if you can solve the problem with money.
The sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves, on the trees, on the grass, and on the ground, and they walked forward with brisk steps, as if this was not the Forbidden Forest that the Hogwarts students talked about, but the back garden of their own home.
After passing through the heavy trees, and after maneuvering with a few unfriendly animals, they came to a clearing, surrounded by trees, lush and lush, and they overlapped each other, like countless huge umbrella covers, which shaded the clearing.
Looking at this, Luna suddenly showed a childlike smile, she gently pulled Joe to the center of the clearing, and then she reached out and stroked in the air, as if stroking something!
The inquisitive Joe also stretched out his hand and gently groped forward, and after a while, he felt a smooth touch, as if he were touching silk. He understood something, took out the opaque sunglasses from his pocket and put them on his face, under the power of magic, he felt his vision expand all of a sudden, and in front of him appeared a magical and familiar creature - Thestrals.
"They're still so beautiful, so magical!" exclaimed Joe.
"You can see them too?" Luna asked softly, staring at Thestrals.
"The power of magic. Joe gestured to the glasses.
"It's magical. Although Luna had been staring at Thestrals, she seemed to understand what Joe meant, "Magical glasses! magical eyes!" her tone rose slightly, "Daddy has been happy since he met you." In fact, since his mother left, almost no one has been able to understand him. ”
She turned her head and stared into Joe's eyes, her tone calm again, "He's just as kind as these Thestrals, but people avoid them because they ・・・・・・"
"Different!" replied Joe, then, "but that doesn't change the quality of their objective existence, does it?"
"That's right!" the girl smiled, "Actually, you're very different!"
"Me?" Joe was a little surprised, "I might be a little more mature!"
"Not really. The girl directly denied him, "What are you afraid of, and you are enjoying your own world, or trying to fight for it." ”
Joe froze for a moment, and then he said weakly, "I thought I hid it well!"
The girl didn't answer him directly, she turned around and beckoned to Thestrals, who seemed to have an unbelievable natural affinity in her. Under the ultrasound detection, Joe saw the Thestrals approaching one after another, meekly lowered his head, accepted her touch, and rubbed her hair affectionately.
Seeing Luna, who seemed to be the daughter of nature, Joe sighed and said, "It's too early! You'll find out in two years." ”
The girl rarely ruined her expression, which had always been a little stiff, and smiled softly, revealing 8 snow-white teeth.
At that moment, the sunshine, the shade of the trees, the Thestrals and the smiling girl were like a picture!
Where the treasure is, there the heart is!
Joe smiled as well and said softly, "Next time we can bring some raw meat and try feeding them!"
"Do they like raw meat?" said the girl, cheerfully, "I've always wanted to feed them, but I couldn't figure out what they liked, and I was going to bring a little bit of everything over and try it!"
"By the way, they don't seem to like Gordigan (old Lovegood likes to make tea out of it)!"
Luna gave him a very "humane" look.
October is here, and the wet chill permeates the grounds and seeps into the castle. A sudden flu broke out among the staff and students, leaving Madam Pomfrey the head nurse scrambling. Ginny Weasley had been ill lately, and Joe had finally recovered after filling her with a bottle of cold medicine she had made herself. Given the amazing effect of Joe's cold potion, Fred and George took the opportunity to offer to sell it in large quantities, and the trio ended up making another profit.
The rain of bullets crackled on the windows of the castle and did not stop for several days. The lake was rising, the flower beds were filled with mud, and the pumpkins that Hagrid had planted were swollen to the size of a trellis.
Nick, who almost lost his head, invited Harry to his 500-year-old death party on Halloween, only to buy one get two free, and the Iron Triangle, who had no idea about this kind of party, was directly pitted. Thinking about the description in the book, the rotten to the point of stinking dishes, and the night of ghost crying wolf, Joe shuddered to think about it. It's a shame to say that Hermione missed the Halloween dinner last year because of hermione. So, in the end, Joe politely declined Harry's invitation. Hermione and Ron still seem to be sorry for Joe missing such an unusual evening!
O innocent child!
Halloween had arrived, and Harry seemed to regret that he shouldn't have agreed to the death party so hastily. As a result, Harry was angrily reminded that "once the word is spoken, the horse is hard to chase." You said you were going to the death party. So the trio ran to find Nick.
This year's Halloween banquet was a great event, and the trio was at a loss. The entire campus is decorated with live bats. Hagrid's huge pumpkin was carved into a lantern large enough for three people to sit in. The whole auditorium was lit up with candles, and the tables were filled with gold plates, which was very tempting! And this year, Dumbledore even booked a skeleton dance troupe to cheer everyone up.
Joe even ran to the Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff tables and sang indulgently with the eaglets and badgers. Everyone partyed together until late at night.
In the end, everyone happily ended the Halloween banquet, everyone hugged each other, talked and laughed loudly, and began to walk to the bedroom.
The sudden movement of the crowd stopped, and the noise stopped, and Joe heard Neville beside him gasp, "What the hell is going on?" he said in surprise.
Joe followed his gaze,
Below the hallway, between the two windows, on the wall a foot above the ground, there was some scribbling, shimmering in the light of the burning torches.
The Chamber of Secrets was opened.
Those who are enemies of the heirs, be wary.
Underneath it hung Lady Loris, Filch's cat, its tail hanging from the torch holder, its body stiff as a plank, its eyes wide open, staring straight at it.
The Golden Triangle stood by in a daze, and the students crowded forward to watch the terrible scene.
In the silence, someone spoke loudly.
"Enemies of the heirs, be on the lookout! Next is you, Mudblood!"
It's Draco Malfoy. He had already crowded to the front of the crowd, his cold eyes were alive, and his normally bloodless face was flushed.
He looked at the still, stiff cat hanging there, and a grim smile appeared on his face.
