Holidays tend to be happy times. But too short or too long is not good for us.

Luke didn't have to worry about vacations being too long or too short. After all, the Christmas holiday is different from the winter vacation of the previous life. At the end of the day, it's a short vacation. It's more about getting the children home and their parents.

Not seeing people for years is not a good thing for either parents or children.

Hagrid stood on the platform, glanced at his pocket watch, then looked into the distance, and a big smile curled into his mouth when he saw the black pillar of smoke.

The whistle sounded, followed by the bell. One by one, the students got off the train and happily said this to each other.

Hagrid blew his whistle. The shrill whistle eased the students' excitement, and several of the students who were closer to him frowned.

A few of the other students who seemed to be older changed their expressions, and then they all began to move away from Hagrid. Hagrid, on the other hand, took a deep breath as he looked at the students, who were still noisy and disorderly on the whole.

"The old students make their own carriages. Freshmen come to me! ”

Hagrid's voice literally rattled the leaves on one side. Several of the students who were close to him covered their ears in pain.

It worked well, and the old students went in the other direction, while the new students gathered in Hagrid's direction. Hagrid nodded in satisfaction.

"What's the use of him asking for that whistle?"

Hermione said dissatisfiedly to Luke and Taylor beside her, "Obviously, all you need to do is shout." ”

Luke just smiled. Ignored Hermione's complaints.

Taylor shook his head, but didn't say anything.

"Is there any difference between the carriage from the castle to the station and the journey from the station to the castle?"

Hermione asked Luke as she followed the two of them, moving closer in Hagrid's direction.

Luke shook his head: "I don't know, there should be, otherwise why would you ask us to stay alone." ”

"There aren't enough wagons."

Taylor said in a calm tone, with a deep voice and a smile.

Both Luke and Hermione were silenced.

After a long time, waiting for them to stand not far from Hagrid, Hermione seemed to finally come to her senses.

"Probably not." Her tone was very ...... Tangled. If it was the first time, on the day of the new school, she would scoff at such remarks and disdain them as nonsense. This is the oldest and most powerful magic school in the UK! How could it be that even a few carriages were not enough.

But after more than 3 months of school, she really couldn't say such things in a strict manner.

It will be regarded as yin and yang.

There is no exaggeration of the school's prefix. It's just that there is only one school of magic in the whole of England.

Among the Hogwarts student body, this is also a Hogwarts joke. Of course, it's pure self-deprecation, and if you really let others say it, they will turn their faces.

"We can make the carriage ourselves! I heard my brother tell me all about the carriage ride when I went back to the castle. ”

A Gryffindor student suddenly spoke to Hagrid. He was one of the last few students in Lihaig, and there was a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

After listening to him, the students gave Hagrid another attention. Seeing the reaction of his classmates, the child seemed to be encouraged, straightened his back, and his eyes turned into questions and suggestions.

Hagrid's expression remained calm under everyone's gaze.

"We don't have enough wagons." Hagrid explained to the students, "They don't always have enough. Because freshmen are generally on a boat. ”

The students, who were still making some noise and pushing, fell completely silent.

The entire student team fell silent in an instant.

The students' faces went back and forth between 'I see' and 'I can't believe it', and finally they merged into one and became a rather complex expression.

Hermione opened her mouth, but didn't say anything, just looked at Taylor beside her. Taylor just smiled.

"But we didn't think we didn't have enough cars when we got from the castle to the station."

"Cong Castle arrived at the station earlier, it was free to get on the train, we didn't queue, it doesn't mean that other people didn't queue. And now the carriage may still be rich, even enough for one or even several colleges to go together. But which college remains? That's all there is to it. ”

Luke gave Hermione a simple explanation, and he had just reacted to the reason. Of course, this is not something to be doubted about. It's just a trifle.

"You guessed?" Luke asked as he looked at Taylor with a serious expression.

Taylor winked at Luke and smiled, "Not exactly. ”

This answer caused Luke to raise an eyebrow, and then a big smile: "Good thing. ”

"I'll tell you later."

Taylor said to Luke.

Luke, on the other hand, nodded, understanding why. There are many people around him, and this kind of thing involving Taylor's own secrets really can't be said casually here.

Hermione looked at the two dumb riddle guys with a helpless expression. But preference can't be asked here why these two people.

There was nothing the students could do, so they had to wait here honestly.

The sun gradually moved overhead. The students' actions ranged from composure, to impetuousness, to impatience.

But fortunately, they didn't wait.

"Alright, it's time to get in the car."

Hagrid led the students toward where the carriage was parked.

The students unanimously raised their voices. Seamus Finigan pushed his brand-new wizard pawns into his trouser pocket very roughly, despite the objections of his brand-new wizard pieces. The chessboard was only carried in his hand and was not put back in his box.

Neville beside him shouted in frustration, "I'm finally about to win!" ”

"Give up, Neville, you'll never win against me in wizarding chess!"

Seamus looked smug. But the cold sweat on his forehead betrayed him. He was really on the verge of losing. Losing to Ron is a good thing. Losing to Neville was a bit unacceptable to him.

Although he had been winning against Neville, he was pretty sure he didn't want to lose, not even once.

What a shame!

Luke's expression was calm, but he still breathed a long sigh of relief. Waiting for not knowing when the end is always the most torturous.

Fortunately, it's just waiting for the carriage.

The students moved so quickly that they sat down in the carriage quickly and orderly, almost without Hagrid's urging.

Seeing this, Luke suddenly wondered if the teachers at the school had done it on purpose.

Although the students waited here for a little longer, it really made these eleven or twelve-year-old children a lot more controllable. Compared with the previous messy scene, isn't this kind of work efficiency a little bit higher?

"What are you doing in a daze? Get on the bus first. ”

Hermione nudged Luke, and then glanced around the car where she had parked. Then he took out a pen and paper from the pouch at his side.

"There are a few cars in total...... You don't even have to squeeze two more people into each car. ”

After Luke got into the car, Hermione, who was sitting in the carriage and put down the pen and paper, said angrily: "Strictly speaking, we don't have to wait anywhere at all!" ”

Clearly, Hermione was furious. Luke suspects that he and Taylor have a lot to do with this, but he really doesn't dare to say anything more now.

"Okay, they did it on purpose, but if we really squeeze it, I guess there are still many people who are not happy. For the sake of convenience, it's really better to let us wait. On the contrary, the efficiency is much higher. ”

Luke shook his head and said to Hermione.

"It must have been Professor Snape's idea!" Hermione said with her hands on her chest.

Luke just shook his head, and from what he knew about the professors, it wasn't unusual for any of them to make such a decision. There is really no need to fight wits and courage with such a group of students.

"Your arithmetic is much better." Taylor glanced at Hermione's notebook, glanced at the concise and straightforward formula, and complimented.

Hermione had a slight smug on her face.

"It was Luke's Christmas present that made a difference. Those mathematical writings are really simple and clear, although there are a little flaws in the derivation of principles, but they are really one in terms of practicality. ”

Hermione sighed, and she could clearly see the strengths and weaknesses of those books. Those formulas, knowing what they are, not knowing why, are completely practical and have no problems. But there are some shortcomings as to how these formulas came to be and why they are the way they are.

But for students, it's too much friendliness.

"The derivation of the principle cannot be put down, and most of the next few books for you will focus on this aspect." Lu Kexiaozhe nodded: "It seems that the gift you and I gave me is quite satisfied." ”

Hermione nodded heavily, "Very satisfied." ”

"Are you giving 'knowledge' to everyone?"

Taylor said with a somewhat strange expression. Without waiting for Hermione to look confused, she preemptively explained to Hermione, "He gave me some precious herbs. There are a few more prescriptions that I haven't seen before, but they are very powerful. ”

So the two of them looked at Luke together. Judging from the two current gifts, knowledge is indeed the key word of Luke's gift.

"Not exactly." Luke shook his head at the gaze of the two and said, "There are always people who are not interested in knowledge. It's the same in any form. It doesn't matter if you don't like it, or if you don't have to. ”

"So for these people, it's a demand. Some people need interests, and some people need feelings. ”

The smile on Luke's face was a little more smug: "Anyway, I'm quite happy with the gifts I gave me. ”

So I switched to two white eyes.

Soon, the three of them began to laugh again. Children at this age always have endless words to say when facing each other. Topics come and go, and they can even have the luxury of discarding topics that they can continue to talk about, but don't like that much.

And after just a dozen years, they have to face a state of being speechless and silent. If there's a topic you can talk about, don't let the scene fall into an awkward silence.

It wasn't long before they were back at the castle, and the students who hadn't gone home for Christmas were looking forward to their return.

The older students are fine, but the younger students can suffocate. They were already holding back their words and wanted to talk to their friends.

So the scene was once again in chaos.

Luke and Taylor didn't join in the excitement in the small square. The two of them took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and left the crowd.

"Can you prophesy?"

Luke didn't delay, and after finding a remote abandoned classroom, he asked straight to the point.

"It's just a little bit, with the help of my grandmother, I forcibly opened it a little."

Then Taylor saw Luke's frowning brow. She smiled.

"Don't worry, there's no damage, in fact, it's time to turn it on, not so much to force it as to guide."

Taylor's relief did not completely reassure Luke, but now he could only keep this matter in his heart secretly, and said, "What effect? ”

"It's simpler and doesn't make much of a difference. You can see the revelation of a short-term, point-related model lake. But the timing of the initiation is uncertain, nor is the location and time of the revelation. Some work, some don't. ”

Taylor said in a helpless tone: "Grandma said that my early ability is too weak. Her pre-existing ability at that time was to be able to activate the anticipation of three seconds in a critical moment. ”

Luke's words of comfort were all stuck in his mouth.

Well, there's really not much more to say.

"If you compare it like this, your ability is indeed a bit unsuitable."

Luke nodded.

Taylor looked at the reluctance, his face getting bulging more and more.

But Luke was unmoved.

"Is there any progress in your abilities?" Not to be outdone, Taylor said.

"Heh, there's a ......," Luke sneered, "I can't even find any new ways to develop the ability at the moment. I can feel quite a lot of emotional energy, but a lot of times I don't know how to call it. ”

"For example, the overall mood in school right now is excitement. I could feel that my abilities could affect the overall mood, but it was like a grasshopper shaking a tree, and it was useless. Unlike before, I used to achieve this effect by driving the emotions of several people. ”

"Devouring the Starry Sky: Signing in to Become a God"

Luke was distressed, he couldn't find any ideas for development, he didn't think he was a stupid person, but if he didn't find a way, he didn't find a way.

"Any ideas for a solution?"

Taylor could see the self-deprecation under the sneer, and asked with concern.

"It's simple, too...... Just find Gryffindor's legacy. ”

Luke let out a long sigh of relief.

Taylor stopped talking. It's not something that can be used as a simple adjective.

So the two of them fell silent together.

The holiday is over. But more troubles are just beginning.
