Before the Christmas break, it snowed heavily at Hogwarts.

The goose feather snow is heavy, and the whole castle is covered with thick snow, turning into a world of glass, and even the surface of the black lake is covered with thick ice, becoming a ski resort for young wizards.

On weekdays, the giant squid, who likes to float on the surface of the water and spray water, has to dive underwater, lie on the ceiling of the Slytherin common room, and tap it with its tentacles, signaling them to help cut the ice open.

The young wizards of Slytherin were terrified when they saw the big squid, fearing that it had shattered the glass of the ceiling, causing the black lake to flood the entire common room.

The students of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw also have their own troubles, and the snow scene from the top of the tower is indeed beautiful, but it cannot be eaten.

They had to leave the warm lounge every day, endure the biting cold wind, walk from the eighth floor to the auditorium, and battle the moving stairs every day.

After breakfast, the chicks were frozen.

The Hufflepuff Lounge is a different story, with plenty of sunshine and close to the kitchen for a hot meal without leaving home.

What is the superiority of the common room?! (Tactical Fallback)

Hufflepuff House is usually low-key, but it's definitely how comfortable it is, and it doesn't get into bells and whistles.

What is the tower, the view is good, the scenery is good, and what is the black lake lake view room where you can watch the fish...... It's useless, it's close to the kitchen and you can beat all the colleges.

Therefore, a good college, just like choosing a university, is the first thing to consider is the dormitory...... That's where you'll spend the most time in the next few years!

The snow turned the earth white, and it still refused to stop, which also caused problems for commuting.

The stone steps were covered with a thick pile of snow, and Filch had no time to clear them, and the road was soon flooded again.

The Weasley twins and Peeves place traps under the snow and slip if they accidentally step on them.

Many students were recruited, even Professor Snape fell twice, Harry and Ron accidentally passed by, and Snape identified as a trap setter, and deducted Gryffindor seven points.

It's not that Snape doesn't want to deduct more, it's that thanks to his tireless efforts, Gryffindor's house score has bottomed out, with only eight points...... Saving a point is to save face for Professor McGonagall, after all, it is a school, and you can't see you when you look down.

As the semester drew to a close, the professors stopped lecturing much.

Professor Flitwick showed everyone the dueling championship trophy he had won when he was younger, and asked a few young wizards to use the magic they had learned this semester to compete with him.

Although it was only a performance, the students also found it interesting.

Professor McGonagall teaches young wizards how to make snowmen move, and she makes a bunch of snowmen to attack each other.

McGonagall, who doesn't have a "stone pier dispatch", can only have a good time with a snowman.

No one wanted to go to Snape's class, because he didn't even have a fireplace, and the classroom was as cold as a morgue, and the students had to huddle around the crucible and keep warm by the steaming hot soup.

In Professor Sprout's herb class, she teaches her students to pick a magical plant called fiery chili peppers, which warm their bodies when eaten.

But the sequelae are also obvious, the next day will become an anal fissure person, and the buttocks will be hot and painful, as if they have hemorrhoids.

With the last day of the semester, the decoration of the castle has also changed:

The walls of the auditorium are covered with ribbons of holly and mistletoe, and twelve towering Christmas trees are erected throughout the room, with shiny Xiaoice pillars and flickering candles.

All the students snuggled up in the warm lounge, waiting for the dinner to start before taking the train home the next day.

Hermione took a list and searched the library for the magic book, which was a small pastime when she came home from vacation, and after the Rove helped her find the book, she was also a little idle.

Rove proposes to go winter fishing in the Black Lake.

As the saying goes, fishing without nesting is equivalent to working in vain.

Rove rubbed the prepared bait in a basin, added a handful of snow water from time to time, and finally took out a bottle of potion with a strong smell and poured it into the bait.

Neville carried the ice chisel he had brought from the greenhouse, laboriously carved a large hole in the ice, and Rove poured all the bait into the lake.

Shirley and Hermione brought a pile of firewood from afar and lit a campfire on the thick ice, which could be used to keep warm and grill fish for a while.

After the nesting was over, Rove took out four fishing rods, and took out the bait made by the heartworm, hooked it, and began to cast the rod to fish.

The other three were all novices and had to learn from each other, and the last four sat around the big hole, fishing while baking the fire, and by the way...... Chat.

"Shirley, you go to my house for Christmas, you're the only one at the castle." Hermione invited.

Of the four of them, only Shirley did not return for the Christmas holidays and remained at Hogwarts.

"Hermione, let's go later, forget it this time." Shirley shook her head and politely declined, "I'm not alone on vacation, Professor McGonagall has a house in Hogsmeade Village, and she invited me to be a guest there." ”

Neville stared at the fishing rod, Riffford was hidden in his scarf, and he didn't know if it was too cold, or if ADHD was indeed cured by Rove, and he didn't like to move much.

Neville tossed the rod several times, but it was empty, and he scratched his hair and asked:

"Rove, I'm okay with this technique, is it a problem with the fishing rod?"

Here it is, the classic weird fishing rod...... As a veteran, Rove smiled and comforted: "A master has a rod, a novice sets up a stall, and fishing pays attention to patience." ”

Rove continued to teach Neville fishing lessons, and although he hadn't caught a single fish until now, he was so confident.

"Rove, are you going back to the Romanian Fire Dragon Sanctuary on vacation?" Hermione wondered.

"I'm going to Albania, and my grandfather is still there." Rove shook his head.

Newt had been in the Albanian forest for half a year, and Rove had to see what he was up to.

But this is also Newt's style, Rove heard from his grandmother Tina that just a week after they got married, Newt went to the Brazilian rainforest and stayed for most of the year before returning.

"And how will your Christmas present be sent to you?" Shirley looked up and asked softly. "I remember you said that you didn't get the acceptance letter."

"You can send it to Fawkes, and I'll have Fawkes send it to me." Rove was prepared, and he reminded: "By the way, make sure to write clearly that it is for me, otherwise Fawkes would have thought it was a gift." ”

“……”

"Alas, bait!" Rove suddenly felt the rod sink downward, and he said excitedly: "This time it must be a big fish, struggling very hard." Neville, stick ready! ”

Rov dragged back, Shirley and Hermione grabbed the corner of the boy's clothes, and the three of them dragged backwards together.

The fish is dragged to the surface, Hermione and Shirley fall backwards and fall into the snow, and Rove falls on top of the two little girls.

But it was not a big fish that took the bait, but a mermaid with long, unkempt dark green hair and pebbles strung with thick strings around his neck.

Neville knocked the merfolk unconscious with a single blow of his stick.

Several people looked at each other, and Rove checked that the mermaid was still breathing, and hurriedly threw it back to the Black Lake, shouting:

"Run!"
