Chapter Seventy-Eight: Christmas Gifts
Christmas is coming,
Rov was woken up early in the morning when he opened his eyes to find the "delivery driver" Fox standing by the bed, pecking at his hair.
"Hey, you can't do it there! Fox, stop your mouth and don't ......"
Rove hurriedly pulled the quilt and wrapped himself all over, he was only eleven years old, and he didn't want to experience the feeling of being bald too soon.
Fawkes was really angry, and he found that there were piles of things next to the nest in the morning, and he thought they were all gifts for himself.
After being reminded by Dumbledore, Fawkes realized that none of them were gifts from it, and all of them were for Rove to pass on.
Fawkes didn't care if he didn't receive gifts, but suddenly received a lot of them, and they all shared the joy with the Sorting Hat...... I turned my head and found that it wasn't for it.
Fox's mood can be imagined!
"Don't be angry, didn't I send you a gift?" Rove wrapped himself in the quilt, revealing only one pair of eyes.
It was a nest of birds he had carefully selected, and the dazzling birds were greedy when they looked at it.
Speaking of this, Fox was even more angry, and the second-hand nest used by the birds was also given to it, right?
It's a noble phoenix!
It's a stormy offensive!
Rove had no choice but to sign an unequal treaty, promising free food, but after not killing Fawkes's phoenix tail feathers, he finally calmed his anger and turned into a flame to find Newt.
Wrapped in the quilt like a caterpillar, Rolf jumped out of bed and checked the Christmas present from Fawkes.
Aside from some chocolates, a lot of them are books about veterinarians, and Hogwarts students know that Rove has a Celia Magical Beasts Shop, and the gifts he gives are more practical.
But many girls sent books on gynecology, which made it a little difficult for Rove...... He is a veterinarian, how can he become bigger and stronger in the field of gynecology?
Hagrid's gift was a big bag of herbs, and Rove loved this "unpretentiousness"!
He gave Hagrid a dragon egg, but it was only an unfertilized egg, and it didn't hatch a dragon at all, so it tasted good as a boiled egg.
Professor McGonagall gave Rove a detailed explanation of Quidditch moves; Rove gave her a small broomstick for animals.
When McGonagall transforms into a tabby, she can also ride a broomstick and play Quidditch in her room.
Rove also gave Professor Snape a bottle of Potter's shampoo, although the patent for the Potter's shampoo had long been sold by Freemont Potter and had nothing to do with Harry.
But the brand hasn't changed, it's still a familiar taste and recipe.
Professor Snape gave Rove a bottle of fresh air from Hogwarts in return, apparently with care.
Dumbledore also sent him a gift, a string of magical wind chimes that could predict the weather; What Rove gave the principal was a dozen thick woolen socks, enough for him to use until next Christmas.
As for the gift of her sister Margaery, this time it was unexpectedly normal, it was actually a precious two-way mirror, but unfortunately there was only one side, and the other side was probably in Margaery's hands.
Neville delivered a broomstick repair kit that included a large Fleetwood quick-clean handle brightener, a silver broomtail trimmer, and a brass clip-on compass.
Hermione was given a medical first aid kit that allowed her to treat her wounds urgently after being injured by a magical beast. She also carefully gave small toys to the tree guards and the evil women's birds.
Opening Shirley's present, Rove discovers a sweater, seemingly hand-knitted by the maiden, with a Hufflepuff badger on the front and a beautiful Ravenclaw eagle on the back.
……
……
In the room,
Neville lifted the covers, stepped out of bed, crouched in the corner, and checked his Christmas presents.
Reefer was a little cold, and he burrowed into the quilt in the distance.
Neville opened a small bag full of seeds of magical plants that Rove had given him, and he was a little happy, looking out the window, wondering where to plant.
early morning
Hermione sat down at her desk early and began to read, humming an English ditty and clutching a bright red, flame-like quill pen where she was happily writing.
The girl looked at the quill made of phoenix tail feathers, and couldn't put it down.
Hogsmeade Village,
Shirley came to Professor McGonagall's house as agreed.
The girl stood at the table and inserted two or three daffodils she had picked into a vase filled with water.
Shirley was dressed thinly, but not cold, because there was a set of unicorn fur clothes inside the robe.
The girl washed her clothes early and gave them back to Rove, and was given to her as a Christmas present by the boy.
It's warm!
For some reason, Shirley remembered Rove in Albania, and if she wasn't there, she didn't know how the animals in the box were.
Professor McGonagall, who had just finished her test flight in the room, walked over with a small broomstick...... The performance of the broom is not bad.
Professor McGonagall looked at Shirley, who was a little absent-minded, lightly tapped the girl's forehead, pursed her lips and smiled, "Who do you want?" ”
The ponytail girl was a little weak-hearted, so she blushed.
……
……
Rove was standing outside the bunker, building snow dragons, like the Romanian long-horned dragon Waghar.
However, his skills are not very good, and he looks more like a chicken cub than a fire dragon.
Rove was a little dissatisfied with the work he had created, and was about to tear down the pile in line with high standards, when he turned his head and saw the ghost guy again.
Ms. Gray...... Or Helena Ravenclaw, who was floating under an old locust tree, staring blankly at him, as if feeling her mother's breath.
Rove crouched down, twisted a snowball with his fingers, rubbed it gently, and threw it towards the tree, and the snow was scattered like a goddess scattering flowers.
He took the initiative to say hello and said:
"Merry Christmas, Ms. Gray, forgot to prepare a present for you...... By all means next time! ”
Lady Gray looked at the boy, and she suddenly said, "Want to see where I was killed?" ”
“……”
Rove wanted to refuse, but remembering Newt's words, he wanted to ask for some information about silverfish, so he coughed and said, "If it's convenient......"
Miss Gray floated off into the distance.
Rove also wanted to ask if he would like to help burn some paper, but gave up considering that there was no such custom here.
He pulled out his broomstick and followed Ms. Gray into the depths of the forest.
Rove flew for a full twenty minutes before he came to a stop in an open area where there was only a towering tree, long since it died.
"That's where I was stabbed!"
Lady Gray lifted her cloak suddenly, revealing a large hidden chest with a black wound on it.
Rove squinted his eyes and took a closer look...... Ahh
This wound is indeed fierce...... Narrow pass.
