Chapter 129: A Sudden Change
"I miscalculated, I didn't expect him to have spell-solving equipment too!"
Rosie muttered sullenly, turning her gaze to the black wand that Lucius hadn't had time to pick up when he left.
A simple black wand with a silver snake head with an open mouth and emeralds in the place of its eyes.
"Expensive Wizard's Staff: Using the dragon's nerve as the core of the wand, using this wand is, magic attack +25%, quality, 115, levitation spell +2, flying spell +2, oolong dispatch +2, and the wand needs to reach more than 100 intelligence. The wand will be retrieved at 23 hours and 59 minutes. ”
Quality 115? The quality of Aber's dueling master wand is only 95, should it be said that it is worthy of being a wand used by a big dog?
Grumbling in his heart, Rosie casually threw the wand into the inventory.
It's only available for one day, but it's hard to tell what other useful.
"What are we going to do?" Grice, who had not spoken, asked.
"Go to Hogsmeade first and look for Claire's traces, then go back to Hogwarts and ask Percy to confirm Lucius's words."
……
The two return to Hogsmeade and go to the Slow Cake Shop again, only to find Claire sitting bored in the shop, with a delicate box and a tote bag next to her.
"Where have you two been?"
Seeing the two of them appear, Claire immediately ran forward with something and a grin, "I'm going to buy something, and you'll be gone when I come back." ”
"Shopping?"
Glancing at what she was holding in her hand, Rossi was speechless for a while.
Do you run to the back of the house to buy something?
You don't say hello to me when you buy something?
"Then you don't say hello to us."
She said helplessly, "Suddenly disappearing without saying a word, we are very worried!" ”
"I'm sorry!" Claire bowed her head and apologized, "I wanted to surprise you. ”
Surprise?
Rossi and Grice looked at each other and asked suspiciously, "Surprise?" ”
"Hmm!"
Nodding, Claire raised her eyes and said, "Because I have always been taken care of by you, I want to buy you a gift this time." ”
As she spoke, she first handed the bag in her hand to Rossi, and then picked up the delicate and sealed box in both hands and handed it to Grice.
When I opened the tote bag, I glanced at it, and inside was a dark green women's slim suit with silver trim on the cuffs.
Good thing it's not red.
The moment he saw that it was a suit, Rosie couldn't help but feel a little happy.
A red dress can still be worn, and a red suit can only be pressed to the bottom of the box.
"Thank you, Claire."
He thanked him softly, and asked casually, "Why did you think of giving me such a dress?" ”
Claire smiled, "Because you like green, and you're a professor, it's a good fit for formal wear." ”
At the same time as the words fell, she saw that Grice was also about to open the sealed box, and she hurriedly stopped:
"Don't, don't open it here, I'll see it when I get back."
"So mysterious? I can't wait to see what's inside. ”
Rosie looked at Claire suspiciously, "Isn't it better than a gift for me?" ”
At this point, she continued: "Let's go, let's go back to school now!" ”
"Back now? So early? Claire looked at the sun just overhead, confused.
"I've been to this village many times before, but it's the first time I've seen your gift, and I can't contain my curiosity anyway."
Because Claire was just a student and didn't want her to be involved in dangerous things because of herself, Rosie took advantage of the situation to find a reason to return to the castle early.
When the three of them walked up the stone steps to the castle gate, it was exactly one o'clock in the afternoon.
According to Rossi's past observations, most of the students, except for those who were out, spent their days off resting in the dormitories or common rooms, a small number of them playing in the courtyard, and some reading books in the library or practicing spells in the Charms classroom.
Walking through the courtyard and into the foyer, Harry was greeted by a broomstick walking down the marble staircase with Ron and Hermione.
Hermione: Is this reconciled with Ron? Hmm~ I didn't waste all my hard work.
Seeing this scene, Rossi suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart.
"Good afternoon, Professor Rossi, Assistant Coach Grice, and Claire."
Harry and the three of them greeted each other at the same time.
"Good afternoon!"
Rosie smiled in response, and Grice nodded, while Claire, who was next to her, looked at Harry and the three in a daze.
"Professor Rosie, I've finished my homework, should I go back and get it for you now?" Ron asked weakly.
"It's good to be done, huh...... Leave it to me at dinner time. ”
Smiling slightly, Rosie turned to ask, "Where are you going?" ”
"We're going to see Harry's Quidditch training."
Hermione picked up the topic, "I wanted to try it out and see if I could improve my broomstick riding ability." ”
Hearing this, Rosie nodded abruptly, looked at the Light Wheel 2000 in Harry's hand, and made a suggestion:
"Then don't try it with Harry's broom."
"Why?"
Hearing this, Hermione couldn't help but be stunned, her brown eyes were full of doubts, "Didn't you say that the Halo 2000 is the best broom in the school at the moment?" ”
It seems that she was originally planning to do that.
"Good is good, but not for beginners."
Rosie laughed and explained, "The speed of the Light Wheel 2000 is too fast for beginners to control. Hermione, not everyone has the talent to fly like Harry. For beginners, the broom used in flying lessons is already fast! ”
"Well......" The expression on Hermione's face became tangled when she said this, "but I feel a little unstable using the broom in flying lesson...... Could it be that I really don't have a talent for flying? ”
"Have confidence in yourself, my brothers said, fly, just fall a few more times!" Ron next to him took the broom from Harry's hand, "Look! ”
In the next second, he actually stepped on a broom and flew in the foyer.
"Practice more, isn't it easy?" As he spoke, he took the handle of the broom with one hand, and waved his other hand vigorously at the people on the ground.
"It's too dangerous! Come down! Rosie immediately stopped.
At the moment when her voice sounded, the broom beneath Ron seemed to lose control, and its speed instantly increased tenfold.
"Ahh
Ron let out a scream, and immediately grabbed the broom pole with both hands, and threw the out-of-control broom on his upper body, "knocking and knocking" around the hallway.
Just as Rosie drew his wand and was about to imprison him, his body bounced back from the ceiling, and he shot like an arrow in the direction of Grice on his broomstick.
Before he had time to think about it, Grice jumped up, grabbed him from his broom in an instant, and held him firmly in his arms.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The uncontrolled Light Wheel 2000 slammed into the wall three times in quick succession before falling to the ground.
Clang! Syllable!
Grice picked up the box, slammed it against the corners of the marble staircase, and then bounced off the ground and broke in half.
Bright red liquid like a red tide gushed out from the originally sealed box, and the heavy smell of blood suddenly inhaled into everyone's nostrils.
Blood?
While this thought flashed through Rosie's mind, Grice struggled with the last of his sanity and threw Ron out of his arms.
"Quick, run...... Hisss hiss! ”
Grice's voice changed from human language to snake language, and his body suddenly turned into a large gray-green snake.
