Chapter 121: Christmas Gifts

Because of Helena, Rove missed lunch at Hogwarts without a doubt.

But it's not a big problem, Hufflepuff, one of the great Big Four, once said:

"I want the little badgers who are close to the kitchen to have a hot meal at any time."

This kind of benefit is the envy of other colleges!

Sitting by the fireplace in the Hufflepuff lounge, Rove lifted the lid of a delicate food box, and steaming smoke came out.

He picked up a piece of melt-in-your-mouth honey date cake, tore it in half, and handed it to Shirley beside him.

The ponytail girl looked at Rove with her hands on her cheeks, she shook her head and said with a bright smile, "I have eaten at noon." ”

"Try it, the house-elves say it's the newest flavor." Rove smiled: "Besides, you are so thin, there is no harm in eating more." ”

Shirley obediently took the date cake, took a bite gently, and chewed it slowly.

Speaking of which, she also felt that her body was too thin, and when she used to take a shower with Hermione, she felt that she was okay, and even had a slight advantage......

But since seeing the centaur Nemelia, especially seeing her undulating chest, the comparison shows that she is too slender.

As Rove ate, he talked about Helena and Barrow, not Snape's rhetoric, but the real process.

Shirley frowned after listening quietly, she had heard Rov mention Helena for a long time, and she also knew that this Ravenclaw daughter wanted Rove to resurrect her...... Then marry him.

Shirley whispered, "So, are you ready to resurrect Helena?" ”

Instead of answering, Rove asked rhetorically, "Do you want me to resurrect her?" ”

Shirley was silent, her cheeks held up and stared at the flames in the fireplace.

After a moment, the ponytail girl bit her lip, nodded and shook her head:

"I want Helena to come back to life, but I don't want you to resurrect her."

Rove couldn't help but almost want to laugh, but knowing that Shirley was thin-skinned, he didn't expose her careful thoughts, so he couldn't help but smile and said:

"Then the next time you see Helena in the Ravenclaw common room, tell her what you think."

"Good! Who's afraid of whom?! ”

Shirley straightened her waist violently, and soon bent down again, lying on the table, gently fiddling with her ponytail, a little lacking:

"Helena is the daughter of Ravenclaw, is she as smart as her mother? Can I handle it? ”

Rove stretched out his finger and tapped the ponytail girl's forehead, "Not as smart as you." ”

Shirley smiled.

He paused, and then said, "I'm not as pretty as you." ”

Shirley blushed.

The ponytail girl's gaze shifted slightly, she raised her head, looked out the window, and said in surprise: "It's snowing." ”

Rove turned his head, looked at the layer of snow mats that were quickly laid out outside the castle, and laughed softly:

"yes...... Merry Christmas! ”

……

……

Hogwarts had a heavy snowfall, covering the thousand-year-old castle with a thick white fox coat.

The heavy snow lasted until Christmas, when it finally became smaller.

After last year's gift bombardment, Rove has learned to be well-behaved this year, and when he sleeps at night, the windows are deliberately not closed, so that the owls can be unimpeded.

On the table, there is all kinds of food and water to treat them, and even the fireplace is filled with firewood, so that they can stop and warm up when they give gifts.

Rove only hopes that he will be able to sleep until he wakes up naturally this year, and that he will not be woken up by the owl giving him a gift.

But he still miscalculated, far underestimating the number of gifts this year.

Early in the morning, Rove felt a little out of breath, as if there was a heavy object on his body, he thought that the ghost had pressed the bed, but when he opened his eyes, he found that the quilt was full of various gifts.

Not only the quilt and bed, but the dormitory was also full of gift boxes, and in this way, there were owls standing at the window, stretching out their claws and stuffing them into the house, looking like a rookie station.

Rove obviously underestimated his current popularity and influence in the wizarding world, but this can't be helped, the newspaper headlines are you every day, and the minister has to mention you in two out of three sentences...... It's hard not to be famous.

Rove picks up a gift and discovers that there is a letter on it, and the sender is a witch named Gladys.

In the letter, she said that she was a big fan of Rove after reading the report that he had caught Peter, and then asked him to meet him at the Leaky Cauldron for Christmas.

She also booked a room where the two of them could talk in depth about the details of catching Peter!

Rove picked up another letter, this one looks like a liar...... Claiming that her husband was infertile and wanted a second child, she asked Rove to borrow some high-quality essence.

Reward 100,000 Galleons after the deed is completed!

Rove was pretty sure it was a liar, as the letter was signed by Narcissa Malfoy.

Even if it wasn't a scam, there was no way Rov would agree, after all, he and Draco were classmates, and if he really gave him a younger brother, wouldn't that generation be messed up?

In a large number of gift boxes, Rove fumbled for a long time before finding a Christmas gift from his friends.

Sirius still maintains the character of the local tyrant and gives Rove an expensive invisibility suit.

The cloak was made from the skin of the Invisibility Beast, and while it wasn't as good as Harry's Deathly Hallows, it was also very well concealed.

Rove gets the ability of the Invisibility Beast, and the invisibility cloak is a bit of a chicken for him.

But if you go to the Forbidden Forest in the future, you can wear it for Shirley, and it can be regarded as making the best use of it.

Professor McGonagall presented a small gift box, and when Rove opened it, he found it to be a golden snitch.

The Golden Snitch has a physical memory and can remember the first person who touched it with his hand in case of controversy when catching the ball.

So, until the snitch was released during the match, it was not touched by any bare skin, not even by the maker.

Rove touched the cowardly snitch, and it was the first time he got it.

Rove's gift to Professor McGonagall the year before last was a small broomstick suitable for cats to ride, and last year it was a cat climbing frame.

He's given cat litter with a catnip flavor this year, and he's been planning to hide from Professor McGonagall lately, for fear that she'll use Transfiguration to turn into a cat and stuff it into the litter.

Snape gave Rove a large cauldron, but the crucible had apparently been picked up from the warehouse, a thick layer of old dirt, at least twenty years old.

Snape could have sold it to the rags, but gave it to Rove as a Christmas present...... He cried to death.

Rove's gift to Snape was also "valuable", a magical plant endemic to the Far East...... Tai Sui.

Tai Sui, also known as meat lingzhi, is very rare and is an important ingredient for boiling many potions.

But the meat reishi given by Rove is made of silicone, and I don't know if the well-informed Professor Snape knows it.

Dumbledore knew that Rove had been studying alchemy recently, so he gave his youthful notes to the boy as a Christmas present.

Dumbledore was also a master of alchemy, having been awarded the Gold Medal for Pioneering Contributions at the Cairo International Alchemy Congress while he was still a student.

Dumbledore had a sweet tooth, and Rove's gift was a cake engraved in the shape of a Fawkes.

The cake was still baked by Jacob, and although it was sent from the United States, it still had a familiar taste with the protection of magic.

Hermione went skiing with her parents this Christmas holiday, and she gave her a set of ski equipment.

Rove's gift to Hermione was an expensive magic radio that could be used to listen to the wizard's show.

When he opened Shirley's gift box, Rove found a delicate sachet with a sniffing figure on it, beautifully embroidered.

The sachet itself exudes a wisp of fragrance, the fragrance is elegant, and there are dots of tender green brilliance oozing inside, fragrant and pleasant.

Rov put the sachet knitted by the ponytail girl on the tip of his nose and sniffed it vigorously, and then carefully tied it to his pillow.
