The revelry of Christmas is not without a price, and alcohol is fair and doesn't work just because you're a wizard.

On the contrary, because these wizards are all stream-of-consciousness, their drunkenness is far deeper than that of ordinary people, and the discomfort after a hangover is even greater.

Fortunately, they had potions, and several extremely experienced ladies had already prepared things for decanting in advance, which saved Li Qingshu, who was planning to boil a pot of decanting soup, some effort.

It is a cold cure similar to Madam Pomfrey's concoction, which warms the whole body when drunk, and then spews out two plumes of water vapor visible to the naked eye from the ears, and the air gushes with a sound as sharp as a train whistle.

Zhang Chengdao didn't need to drink this kind of thing, after all, his golden light spell had reached an extremely advanced realm, after all, it was a method of dual cultivation of life, even if he was drunk at the time, but now it is the same as not drinking.

So the family of three sat in a row, watching curiously as Sirius, Lucius, Arthur, and Mr. Granger drank a bottle of dusty potion with a bitter face, and kept spitting gas out of their ears like a locomotive.

For a while, the whole room was filled with smoke, just like following the fairyland, but everyone's originally sallow faces quickly became rosy again, and even with the original sluggish spirit, it was much better.

The other little wizards had already gone out to play, and it wasn't too far from the lively city centre, and Mr. Granger had brought a lot of pounds, but it was Lucius who carried more pounds.

When Draco Malfoy came to him with his friends and looked at him expectantly, could Lucius hold back?

Emptied his purse and gave thousands of pounds to his children, which was not a small amount, so the little wizard with the money immediately cheered and went to play in the Muggle streets, and even Bill and Charlie did not resist the temptation.

I went with everyone with interest.

Percy was among them, and last night's Oblivion Charm was so successful that Percy, who had already drunk the fragments, couldn't remember that he had revealed his true thoughts last night.

Otherwise, the Weasleys are talented, and Percy's character is too good.

Zhang Xiao recalled several details about Percy in her previous life, such as when he was in the first grade, he excitedly shouted for Ron: "That's my brother!" Pass Professor McGonagall's giant chessboard! ”

There is also the protection of her brother's corpse during Armageddon, and Penello, the beautiful prefect of Ravenclaw, but the dream girl of countless young wizards, who has a crush on Percy.

Sure enough, there are many things worth pondering in the original book, and the reason for the limited space and perspective in the book can only show a small part of the world, that is, Zhang Xiao herself, so far she has felt a more real and vivid magical world than in the original book.

Seeing that Arthur and his wife were free, Zhang Xiao walked over:

"Mr. Arthur, Lady Molly, can you talk?"

"Zhang, you're saying you want to set up a house-elf service company?"

After listening to Zhang Xiao's intentions and ideas, Mrs. Molly was a little surprised, because in the concept of wizards, house-elves represent wealth and status, and only those famous and long-established families will have house-elves.

"But aren't house-elves all for life? They get paid. I mean, it's okay to get paid for your services, but elves are very scared of getting paid and stuff."

Molly was a little moved: "If I had a lot of money, I really wanted a little elf's helper, I remember when I was a child, those elves were good at housekeeping." ”

Arthur and Molly are both from pure-blood families, although they are now separated, but their ancestors are also broad, and they still know a lot about house-elves.

Zhang Xiao shook his head and said in a low voice: "Actually, house-elves should be divided into domesticated and wandering, which can also be said to be wild, these two races.

House-elves are familiar to everyone, just like Mr. Arthur said, but there are also elves in the wild, and their lives are not very good, but they would rather wander than never hope in a wizard's house.

There are not many of them, and while they resist allegiance to wizarding families, they don't averse to trading their labor for pay—yes, because of custom, they're still afraid of things like pay, but at least they're willing to try. ”

These things are not really secret, and even a house-elf can be inquired about, but no one in the wizarding world has ever bent down to talk to these little ones about their people, their lives.

Mr. and Mrs. Arthur looked at each other in surprise and asked curiously, "Is that so?" How many pokemon have you found? ”

"There are about eighty in number, and the number of elves is not much, and they are used to hiding in inaccessible places."

Zhang Xiao paused and said his intention directly: "Mrs. Mo Li, I want to invite you to manage this company, I don't know if you are willing?" ”

I? Management company?

Molly was really surprised, and after thinking about it, she was still a little excited, the children were all older, the youngest Ginny was now in the second year, Hogwarts was a boarding school, and during the school day, Lady Molly was very idle now, and there was nothing to do.

She has even turned over the garden and pond three times in the past two years, and if she can do something, it seems to be really good.

Mo Li didn't even think about whether she could do it well, because only those who came here knew what kind of person she was like to be a mother who could arrange 7 children.

Arthur also looked at her with encouraging eyes, because the wife has nothing to do, and it is really a torture for the husband!

Because she'll spend all her unreleased energy figuring out how to toss you, it's just terrible!

It's just that Mo Li opened her mouth, suddenly thought of something, and sighed softly: "No, Zhang, there is a kind of pre-storm tranquility in the wizarding world now."

I believe that the mysterious man is hiding in the shadows and planning to return again, and by that time, Arthur and I will be on the front lines against him, just as we were ten years ago.

Oh - Order of the Phoenix, I remember, Dumbledore said I don't need to keep it a secret from you, you should know about the Order of the Phoenix, right? At that point, I'm afraid I won't have time to worry about these things.

And I have a hunch that the mysterious man will return at any time. ”

But she didn't expect Mrs. Molly to think about this issue, Zhang Xiao thought for a while, but then thought of the cave carefully arranged by Voldemort, which can be called thoughtful, but the only loophole is that Kreacher is not dead.

So it's not an exaggeration to say that Voldemort fell big on the elf.

"There are some things that I can't say, but madam, I suggest you ask Dumbledore for advice, these little loyal friends are far better than we think."

Molly nodded, "I'll write to Dumbledore for his opinion, but thank you very much anyway, Zhang." ”

Christmas at Hogwarts is peaceful and quiet, and this year's students who choose to stay for Christmas are exceptionally rare, which also makes the professors at the school much more relaxed.

In the room, the glove lady looked at the huge cardboard box in front of her, which was a Christmas gift from Zhang Xiao and the elf.

The 'Magic House', which Tom said was only accessible to the Chosen One, was an open secret to the Hogwarts elf community.

They always throw unclaimed clutter there, and maybe the elves don't know the mystery of the Room of Requirement, but at least they know it's a big warehouse.

The glove lady picked up the note left by Zhang Xiao:

"In addition to movies, it occurred to me that Muggles have a really good form of entertainment, so I bought some in the hope that they would bring you some joy.

The instructions for use are as follows – "

The Lady of the Glove opened the huge cardboard box, revealing several grotesque objects inside.

There are some glove ladies who know because they have been seen many times in movies, such as television, but the strange-looking machine that resembles a television, with a screen and a few small round bars and buttons, doesn't know what it is.

There is also a dusty box with two elongated oval-shaped things linked to it, with a cross-shaped black button on the left and four buttons on the right.

What is it? A faint curiosity suddenly rose up in the glove lady.

"Arcade machines, and SFC – Super Nintendo, one of the greatest inventions in the history of human entertainment!"

The greatest invention in the history of entertainment?

The glove lady became more and more curious, at the moment she was not so innocent of electricity, and with the help of magic, she was successfully connected to the arcade and the TV.

According to the link diagram similar to the GIF picture, the SFC was connected, and the glove lady clumsily picked up a handle, inserted the cassette, and operated it carefully.

A pleasant electronic sound sounds, a simple overly long animation, a princess almost like a mosaic is captured, and a small man with a red hat and beard and wearing bib pants appears on the screen.

The Lady of the Glove looked at it for a moment, tentatively began to press on the handle, and the villain immediately made a series of incomprehensible movements.

It can only be said that smart people can play everything fast, and after a few experiments, the glove lady quickly figured out what a few buttons were for.

As she walked forward with the plumber in her novelty, a chestnut boy ran from the right side of the screen, and the glove lady had no idea what a chestnut boy was, and Mario rushed over enthusiastically with interest.

After a long time, the glove lady lowered the handle without getting enough of it, and her heart was filled with a feeling that she had never felt before.

The glove lady was stunned suddenly, and she felt the strange feeling carefully.

It's happiness, pure happiness, happiness that you haven't felt when you've watched a movie.

It turns out that I haven't been happy for a long, long time

The white lady's gloves trembled softly in the air, and then she turned in a different direction to look at the arcade.

Professor Flitwick opened the gift from Zhang Xiao, it was a cotton-like auspicious cloud, which seemed to be a little more delicate than the one he was sitting on now.

He took out the note left by Zhang Xiao, hey, you can freely choose the theme according to your mood? When angry, you can turn this cloud into lightning and thunder.

Can it turn into a dark cloud when you're in a bad mood?

Flitwick immediately jumped on the new auspicious cloud (children's version) and immediately mastered how to use it after a simple fumbling of the auspicious cloud, adjusting it to a happy mode with Phnom Penh and happily wandering around the campus, and when he met a colleague, he would show him his new auspicious cloud.

Zhang's gift was amazing!

Snape held a large box full of Chinese materials that were no longer available on the market, and for the first time felt that Zhang's gift was not bad, at least better than something with a plug.

With nothing to do, he immediately set the cauldron on fire with a wave of his wand, and took the materials to the experiment, just before he had a new idea

7 colors of wool socks, candy gift box. And "Actual Combat Attack and Killing Swordsmanship"?

Dumbledore laughed heartily, as if his last improvisation had startled Zhang.

He glanced at the Gryffindor sword lying quietly in the cupboard, picked up the attack sword book again, and looked at it with interest.

It's just that there is a faint regret in Dumbledore's heart - Zhang, in fact, you know what I want most for Christmas

However, this complicated and useless emotion was quickly expelled from his heart, and it was just an undeserved thought that he was attracted to by the resurrection stone.

Well. It's more interesting to give Tom some little swordsmanship shock the next time we meet.

Professor McGonagall never imagined that she would receive such a Christmas present.

Honestly, when the elves brought the gift in, McGonagall felt like she should be aware.

The little wizard didn't know what strange idea he had come up with.

But I never thought that when I opened the package, I would actually find a flamboyant and domineering motorcycle - ?

The bike has high handlebars, huge exhaust pipes, shiny bodywork, and cat heads painted on both sides of the fuel tank that resemble itself.

The resemblance doesn't mean that it's a tabby cat, but that the two cats look serious and serious, like staring sternly at a student who has made a mistake.

McGonagall seemed to fall in love with the two cats' avatars at once.

The dean of Gryffindor looked at the locomotive, driven by the courage buried deep in his blood and soul, and rode it on the way, it should be okay, right?

Anyway, there's no one on campus right now.

According to the instruction manual given by Zhang Xiao, he twisted the accelerator, and with the roar of the motorcycle, two lines of words with special effects suddenly appeared on the silver exhaust pipe:

"Hoburg is the fastest, the loudest is the best"

The massive windows of the office suddenly opened, and the exhaust pipe of the motorcycle spewed flames into the sky with a 'whoosh' from Professor McGonagall.

All that was heard was Professor McGonagall's shouts of surprise or surprise.

Well, all in all, this Zhang Xiao bought, Sirius made a modification, and combined with the vortex of the strange flying motorcycle, which was very popular with Professor McGonagall.

Should?
