As the time entered October, the weather was getting colder and colder, and it was windy and rainy all day outside, with lightning and thunder.

People don't like this kind of weather very much, after all, when it's raining outside, it's best to lie in bed and sleep.

But they have to work hard to get up and go to the morning eight of all evils.

It's just torture!

And even more suffering than the average student is Wood.

Gryffindor's winning squad is still in place, so Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw's overall strategy is more inclined to join the title race after Wood graduates next year.

Cedric, the captain of Hufflepuff, would have tried to fight for it, but in bad weather, it was harder to convince a group of badgers to train than to convince them not to go into the kitchen.

As for Ravenclaw's captain Davis, he simply chose to swing it up.

Ravenclaw's lineup of chasers hasn't changed, and three people plus one can't stop Hallie, so what's the fight?

Do you just expect a Seeker with a year of playing for Qiu Chang?

Slytherin, the only Slytherin who has a certain competitiveness with Halo 2001, will not be able to do this season, and it is good enough that their team does not break out into civil unrest.

Marcus, the captain of the Slytherin team, has become a rare repeater at Hogwarts this year.

It was such a shame that the Slytherins themselves didn't want to admit him.

Therefore, Slytherin is still determining the command within the country, and it is impossible to organize training.

The situation was good on the outside, but the original team on the inside, and Wood had peace of mind.

As a result, he insisted on seeking the enemy in the void, frantically strengthening the opponent in his mind, and vainly trying to train with the Gryffindors in the torrential rain, and even wanted to pull a few substitutes.

Wood was once again suppressed with a neat crackdown, and was forced to make a promise that Gryffindor would only train at a low frequency once a week as long as the other teams did not train.

After making the pledge, Wood was overwhelmed with grief and longed to let the rain drown him.

Of course, the Weasley twins carried him back from the training ground.

Hallie actually doesn't care about training, after all, the physical fitness of the extraordinary is there, and playing against other teams is pure abuse.

She was more concerned about Ron's rats and Sirius and Professor Lupin's movements.

After finishing her first Charms Club event, Harley managed to find out more about Ron's mouse.

Unfortunately, according to what Hallie heard, the rat escaped early.

According to Ron, after the opening party, his poor rat blob vanished without a trace.

"It must have been eaten by that vicious cat raised by the damned Filch, that bastard Lady Loris!" At the mention of Spotted, Ron angrily told the others.

If it weren't for the lack of evidence, Ron would have been eager to go to Filch for compensation.

Upon receiving the news, Harley immediately realized that there was a high probability that the mouse was Peter Pettigrew.

He probably saw Professor Lupin, an old acquaintance, and maybe even learned about Sirius's existence, so he fled in fright.

Harley eventually managed to sneak into Ron's dormitory, where she found the tattered toy ball that the mouse had played with.

As long as Harley handles the toy with some special techniques, its connection with Pettigrew will be very obvious.

If Peter Pettigrew doesn't retaliate, Harley can curse the toy and determine his location.

Of course, if Sirius was lying, the mouse was just an ordinary mouse and wouldn't waste much time.

Unfortunately, if you want to wait until this solution can be used, you will have to wait until Christmas.

The technique of handling this toy is not complicated, but it takes a long time to soak it in a special material.

Of course, Hallie didn't get impatient because of this, and the ageless witch didn't lack time and patience.

……

In this hectic life, Halloween is coming before you know it.

And this time it was very coincidental that Halloween Eve happened to be Sunday, and it was also the day that the students of the school year went to Hogsmeade for the first time.

Students can spend the whole day in Hogsmeade and come back in the evening with a Halloween dinner, which is perfect.

Early on Sunday morning, the auditorium was filled with the enticing aroma of roasted pumpkin.

However, most of the third-graders struggled to restrain themselves.

They had already heard their older siblings or other seniors mention Hogsmeade many times, and they had been looking forward to it for a long time.

Many of them have enough pocket money and are ready to feast on a feast at Duke Honey's Candy Shop, followed by a delicious butterbeer at Three Broomsticks.

Hermione was also planning her route with great interest, and made a list of the items she needed to replenish, including quills and parchment.

Hallie held her chin and watched Hermione design the route.

In fact, she would rather go to the pig's head bar mentioned by Professor Slughorn and buy some high-strength spirits like flame whiskey, and see if there are any second-hand dealers.

Hagrid was able to get all kinds of good things that he couldn't see in the market in that kind of place, and Harley was so lucky, there was no reason why he couldn't see them.

It's a pity that Hermione has to follow her the whole time, and this plan will probably be postponed like the Forbidden Forest exploration plan and the Pettigrew hunt plan.

After a hurried breakfast, the third-year students rushed in the direction of the Hogwarts gates, forming a long line in the foyer.

Filch, the administrator, arrived quickly. He stood in the doorway, long parchment in hand, checking the list and keeping a watchful eye on every face, not letting a single person who shouldn't have gone out slip out of the door.

Those little wizards who didn't sign the application form, signed it themselves, or found someone to help, and tried to mess around, were all taken out of the team by Filch.

The deans seem to have applied a special magic on the application form, so it is useless to sign on their behalf.

Before leaving, Harley went to visit Sirius.

After all, during this time, Harley really snubbed Sirius, and only cared about Hagrid when she went to him.

Sirius wasn't too disappointed, though.

He spends most of his time digging into the Forbidden Forest with Lupin, helping Lupin find materials for class, and plotting how to catch Pettigrew by the way.

And through Sirius and Lupin's casual chats over the past few weeks, Hallie has learned a lot about her fathers.

Like Sirius's twelve years in Azkaban, like their shared memories of the First Wizarding War, or like the hard days before Professor Lupin became a professor.

Professor Lupin had been having a hard time after the end of the Wizarding Wars.

He refused Professor Dumbledore's assistance and was left alone in search of odd jobs in the wizarding world.

In the toughest times, Professor Lupin even went to Muggles to work as a clerk in a shop or as a casual worker in a restaurant.

When Professor Lupin laughed and told the story, Sirius choked up.

Of course, Professor Lupin's hard life and Sirius's painful imprisonment experience brought Harley a lot of feelings.

But what shocked Harley the most was the memories of their school days.

If Sirius and Lupin weren't talking nonsense, then according to Hallie's synthesis of all the information:

Professor Snape was my mother's childhood sweetheart, but my mother dumped him and chose my dad?

What green plums are invincible from the sky!
