Chapter 139: Harry's Arrival
"Sounds really bad," Betty had to admit
Before they knew it, they were walking to the end of the village.
"That's a screaming shack~" Ron pointed to a dilapidated house in the distance, "Listen to Fred, they say, the house is haunted, so no one has been in it." And there doesn't seem to be an entrance to the house. ”
"Fred, they haven't been there?" Ivey wondered
"Nope. They tried, but didn't get in. ”
"What's so nice about a shabby house, go buy something to eat" Hermione has never been too interested in such rumors
"Okay, let's go to Duke Honey"
....
"Jelly slug, what kind of candy is this?" Hermione looked at the wriggling jelly in the glass jar with disgust
"It actually tastes good," Ron smacked his lips, as if reminiscing.
"They always like to make candy weird," Hermione complained
"Wizards~ always have to be more high-end than Muggles" As a chef, Ivy understands this approach.
"Yo~ a few people are secretly dating," George's voice suddenly came from behind him
"You two dare to come here!"
When the enemy meets, he is very red-eyed. Previously, because of the Quidditch tournament and the honor of the house, Ron temporarily put aside his hatred. But he always remembered it in his heart.
"We don't have any money" Facing the angry Ron, George did not panic at all.
"The money has long been spent in the joke house," Fred said
"A brother is a brother"
"Thought we would be unprepared"
The two of them said one by one, and Ron's face was blue and purple for a while.
"You didn't come here just to ridicule Ron" Ivy was also quite speechless to these two unscrupulous brothers.
"How is that possible?"
"We're here for Harry"
"Harry can't come, you know." Hermione said
"Who said he couldn't come," Freddie said mysteriously
"You're not trying to help him sneak over, are you? There are Dementors on the road."
"Can this stump us?" George said triumphantly
"What did you do?" Ivy asked knowingly
"Hey-hee-" Fred smirked, "when he arrives, ask him yourself, we're leaving." ”
"Let's go?" A cold and piercing voice burst out. Following the prestige, Ron's body exuded a black aura like substance, and his entire face was shrouded in shadows, and he couldn't see his expression clearly.
"Harry!" Fred suddenly pointed behind Ron and shouted in surprise. 's solid acting skills, if it weren't for Ivey's more developed five senses, he would definitely be fooled.
"Huh?" Ron in blackening was stunned. Turning around, there was nothing
By the time he turned around, the twins were gone.
"You're too tender compared to them," Ivy patted Ron, who was frozen in place, "yes, they let me tell you - just bought two more bottles of Butterbeer at the bar." Keep it on your books. ”
Hearing this, Ron cried. Tears of humiliation slipped from the corners of his eyes
"Poor child~" Betty sighed. How much sin did he do in his previous life to spread these two brothers.
"What's wrong with you?" It was Harry's voice this time
He was cloaked in invisibility, and he leaked out.
"Harry! It's really you, how did you get here! Hermione screamed. She didn't take the Twins' words seriously
"Shhhhh One of them leads here. “
Because the Living Point Map had a mind of its own, Harry didn't say it in detail, for fear that they would worry. Besides, the twins had used it many times, and Harry believed it should be fine.
"Well, it's a good thing," said Ivey, "that with this map, it's easier for you to break the school rules in the future." ”
"Ivey ——!" Hermione sneered. She is sensitive to school rules
"Just kidding~ just kidding. But—I've known the Twins for so long, and they haven't told me about it. ”
"My own brother doesn't know anything either" Ron deliberately accentuated his tone when he said 'his own brother'.
"Hey! Guys~ I'm finally here, you don't want to tell me this, do you? Harry said with an exaggerated expression
"Tsk-" Ron smacked his lips twice in confusion, then patted Harry on the shoulder, "Of course not!" Brothers. Let's go, don't say anything, go to the bar for a drink or two. ”
"Come on Harry. We'll show you around," Ivy pushed the door and left Duke Honey
————
"What the hell weather! It's just fine," Ron wrapped around his neck again
No way, the wind is blowing. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, it will be greatly reduced by strong winds. The two ladies wore gloves, scarves, and hats upright, and their eyes were exposed.
"Don't turn around. How about having Ron treat us to Butterbeer? Such weather decisively dissuaded everyone to retreat
"Consent"
"That's the best"
"I can't ask for it"
Ivey's suggestion was well received by everyone
"Why!" and a bad review
"One of you is richer than the other, and you don't think I owe enough, don't you?" There are also good reasons for the bad review
"Ron, you don't know. The wine invited by others will taste better. Ivey said earnestly
"Fart! Want to fool me? I'm as fine as a monkey," Ron doesn't eat this
"Look at it~ I misunderstood me again, I can be sincere. If you don't believe it, next time I'll ask you, and you'll taste it again. ”
"Really?" Ron asked, suspiciously
"Mm-hmm," Ivy nodded frequently
"Na~ I believe you once," Ron reluctantly agreed
A few people quickly crossed the street and just arrived at the bar. A prominent notification catches your eye
Decree of the Ministry of Magic
Everyone, please be careful. Unless otherwise notified, Dementors patrol the streets of Hogsmeade every day at sunset. This measure is to ensure the safety of the inhabitants of Hogsmeade and will not be lifted until Sirius Black is caught. Therefore, all customers are asked to finish their shopping before the end of sunset. At night, it is not necessary not to go out. The Ministry of Magic apologizes for the inconvenience.
Finally, Merry Christmas to all.
"I didn't expect even Hogsmeade Village to be controlled," Hemin sighed
"It didn't work. If the Dementors had really caught Blake, they would have caught it," Ivy disagreed
Entering the bar, it was very noisy, and the sudden weather drove everyone here.
"Harry, you'd better put on your cloak. There are a lot of people here, and several professors often come over for fun. Ivey reminded
"Good," Harry immediately put on his cloak of invisibility
After he hid, the others came to the bar. The proprietress was dealing with a couple of drunken wizards with an impatient face
"Ma'am, long time no see," Ivy said hello
"Yo, a few children are here again," Ms. Rosmerta replied with a smile, "Do you want to drink or miss me~"
Ron blushed as he asked, and Hermione looked at her angrily.
"I'm sure there must be a lot more people who miss you than they think about wine." Ivy said without hesitation
"Giggle~" The lady smiled happily, "What would a few of our distinguished guests want to drink?" Minerva's prohibition has been lifted, so drink whatever you want. ”
"Five glasses of butterbeer, on my account!" Ron immediately said arrogantly
"No way!" Ms. Rosmerta made a face: "Fred and George have already taken your account"
"It's not fair!" Ron excitedly shouted, "Everyone else can keep my account, but I can't!" ”
"It's useless to shout" The lady was unmoved, "You can only remember the account after you settle the account"
"I'll do it anyway. Ladies with five glasses of butterbeer, large glasses. Ivy placed two gold Galleons on the table
"Okay! Find a place to sit, and I'll send it to you later. Seeing the money, the lady regained her smile.
To make it easier for Harry, they sat down in a place that was shaded by the Christmas tree
A few minutes later, Ms. Rosmerta came up with five beers.
"Enjoy it slowly. You can go to my free renew after drinking"
"Thank you very much"
When the lady left, Harry lifted his cloak.
"Come on, Merry Christmas to you guys" Ivy raised his glass
"Merry Christmas!"
Everyone grabbed their glasses and took a big sip. In an instant, the warm liquor dispelled the chill and the body seemed to be reactivated.
"Hiccup!" Harry put down his glass and couldn't help but scream.
Ron also drank half a glass in one go, and his face was full of aftertaste. I couldn't help but take another sip, and then said to Ivy in surprise, "You're right. The wine invited by others tastes really better! ”
Ivy rolled his eyes speechlessly
Just as a few people were enjoying their drinks, a cold wind blew through and the door of the bar was pushed open. Several people looked over and saw the first two, so frightened that they shrank back again.
"Quick, put on! Put it on! ”
Harry scrambled to put on his cloak of invisibility. After being determined, they observed curiously.
"What bad luck! Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitsch couldn't have come at the right time," Ron sighed. The first two are exactly them.
"Hagrid is here, too," Hermione added, "who's that guy in the back?" ”
Behind them were Hagrid and a fat man in a top hat and cloak.
"Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge," Ivey said
————
"Rosmerta, old as usual," Professor McGonagall casually sat down at the bar
"Me too," Professor Flitwick followed
"Okay"
"Please, bring me a cup of demead," Hagrid thought for a moment
"No problem," the lady replied, "Then you're still redcurrant rum, Minister."
"That's right, dear Rosmerta," Fudge smiled, "I must say, it's a great pleasure to see you again. Why don't you have a drink with us? ”
"Thank you for the invitation, I'm honored."
The level of business of the hostess needless to say. Soon, the drinks they asked for came up.
"Your Rum"
"Thank you"
"Minister, what's the wind blowing you here?" Ms. Rosmerta asked curiously
Hearing this, Fudge twisted his body and looked around. After feeling that no one was eavesdropping, he sighed, "What else could it be, Sirius Black." You should have heard about what happened at Hogwarts on Halloween, right? ”
"I've heard a little rumor," the lady nodded
"Hagrid! You're not drunk and told the whole bar to the people! Professor McGonagall was annoyed
"I didn't!" Hagrid immediately retorted, and he said justifiably, "I don't remember when I was drunk!" Anyway, I didn't when I was sober! ”
