Chapter 64: Christmas Gifts

Hope looked at the Quidditch armor and made a slight change to make the bouncy ball a little larger.

Now it's perfect, and the next thing is to find a time to give it to Cedric.

Hope, who had been busy for more than a month, unconsciously stretched his body after getting up, looking at the secret base that had doubled in size from the original, Hope felt a little empty.

It's also strange to say, the Wizarding League has been established for more than a month, and the name of the club has also been recorded by the school, if there is anyone who wants to join the club, they can see their Wizarding League in the school club list, but so far there has been no application to join.

Isn't there something tempting about our tall club? The little wizard now has a really bad eyesight.

Hope shook his head and walked out of the alchemy workshop of the secret base, at this time George and Fred were still struggling for animals to speak human words in the joke shop, but Hope felt that there was a high probability that it would not succeed, which was not an order of magnitude with the difficulty of animal buttons.

Leaving the secret base, Hope returned to the dormitory, and shortly after lying down, he heard something knocking on the window, he got up and looked at the window, an owl was standing in the window with a letter.

Looking at the somewhat familiar owl, Hope opened the window and let it in, and the owl handed the letter to Hope and flew away.

Looking at the letter in his hand, the coat of arms of the Lorman family on the wax turned out to have been sent by his maternal grandfather, Wilson Lorman.

In general, his grandfather wished him a Merry Christmas in advance, and the green vine cooling down to nature was over, and he could now go in again, and hoped that Hope could go and spend the Christmas holiday with them.

Can Qingteng enter? Although he was a little miserable when he went in for the first time, he was still looking forward to entering again.

However, he didn't plan to enter during the Christmas holidays, the last time he stayed in for a day, and a day had passed outside, it was clear that the time inside and outside were synchronized, and Hope felt that there must be something good inside, so he decided to stay in it a little longer when he entered, and the holidays of Christmas were still forgotten.

Hope looked at the calendar, time was flying, there were still five days before Christmas, and he hadn't prepared any gifts for everyone, but Quidditch armor had a good chance to give Cedric.

Cedric, the Quidditch armor as a Christmas present, should be with him every game, right? Quidditch matches are so dangerous, if he accidentally falls off a flying broomstick, this set of armor will definitely protect him well, thinking about Hope, he unconsciously laughed.

Soon Christmas came, and Hope hurriedly prepared everyone's gifts, except for some very familiar others, Hope sent a greeting card, like family, club friends, and professor's gifts were all made by himself.

The next day, at dawn, Hope was woken up by a cold gust of wind, and he shivered, rubbed his eyes, and muttered, "I remember I closed the window." ”

His roommates, Matteo and Caleb, had been home yesterday and weren't going to Hogwarts for the Christmas party, and he had wanted to leave yesterday, so he wrote a letter to his dad first.

Joey said that he caught the clue again, and he was going to squat this holiday, but Hope was not optimistic, he didn't know how many times this was the case, and every time after their operation, the newspaper would report: The Ministry of Magic Auror cracked the smuggling of magical beasts xxx, I don't know how many times, people didn't catch it, and there were a lot more magical animals in Newt's house.

Later, he wrote to his mother.

Theresa has time, but she had a problem to solve yesterday, so if Hope is okay, wait at the school first, and she will pick it up in a few days.

So Hope stayed at school for the first time.

When he looked towards the window, he saw that the window was open, and Xue Ya was standing in front of it, her paws still supporting the window to prevent it from closing.

"Xueya, what are you doing?"

Hope angrily threw the pillow over, and Xueya let go of her claws and flew up. The angry Xue Ya flew over and pecked him on the head.

I was busy giving gifts to your friends this morning, and when I came back, I opened the window to help you open the window to receive gifts, and you did this to me? The more she thought about it, the more angry she became, and flew over and pecked Hope on the head again.

Hope rubbed his head, only to notice that there were several owls standing outside the window, and each owl was carrying a gift.

This made Hope sober up, quickly got up and opened the window again, looking at Xueya who was sulking on the side, Hope sincerely apologized, but Xueya didn't bird him, Hope understood what it meant, and hurriedly took out the senior owl that had prepared a Christmas gift for Xueya, and Xueya was angry.

After calming Xueya, Hope looked at the Christmas presents piled up on the ground and scratched his head, since he didn't come home, the owl sent all the presents here.

Opened the gift and looked at it, it is worth mentioning that Yulin gave him a notebook, Hope opened it and looked at it, it was a manuscript, it should have been transcribed by Yulin, "Slughorn's Potions Configuration Record" This should be her Potions Master Uncle's notes.

The Potions Master's private notes, this is very precious, and then think about the Ba Fay Brain Awakening Potion he gave her, he feels that he has given less, and he should send two more bottles, this is a good thing to replenish the brain, although it is a little difficult to configure, but it is not difficult for him.

Cedric's gift also included a letter from him, which said that he liked Hope's gift very much, that Hufflepuff was going to play Quidditch with Slytherin after Christmas, and that the Slytherin players were a bit dark, and that this suit was a bit of a bad time, and that he felt that it was much better than his original one, but it was too valuable, so he temporarily changed the prepared gift to his collection, and said that he would take Hufflepuff to defeat Slytherin after the Christmas break.

Open the gift box given to him by Cedric, and inside is a golden snitch with a signature on it, it should be a famous Quidditch player, it seems that it should be one of Cedric's favorite collections.

Hope looked at this gift inexplicably and felt a little weak, but this set of armor could indeed protect Cedric's safety, and he was inexplicably at ease.

After rummaging around, Hope didn't find a gift from Professor Snape, but he also made a strong de-oiling and moisturizing shampoo for him, and he didn't even return the favor, so it was okay to be perfunctory.

George and Fred gave them prank prop experiments, and Hope honestly let them lie in the box.

Matteo is a wand maintenance kit, Caleb is a fighting cheats book with illustrations, but he doesn't have the idea of being a melee mage, he just wants to be covered by firepower.

Finally Hope finds the gift that his father, Joey, has given him, a thin envelope, which he picks up and shakes.

'Rustle~'

There was something else inside, an envelope opened, a letter and a key.

The letter said I wish him a Merry Christmas, and there was an order from the Ministry of Magic, one hundred defense bracelets, 10 gold Galleons each, in addition to the Ministry of Magic also gave the material fee of 10 gold Galleons each, this key is to save money, you can go to Gringotts to get it, this is a deposit of 500 gold Galleons, another 1000 gold Galleons will be paid after delivery, and the tail gold will be paid 500 gold Galleons after ensuring that there are no problems with the protective bracelet, and the delivery date is seven days after the end of the Christmas holiday.

Time was a bit tight, he couldn't finish it himself, he decided to wait for George, Fred, and Matteo to come back and give them something to do, and see if he could also involve Yulin and Caleb, just as their club's first group activity.

Besides, Hope felt that this gift was really perfunctory, it was originally discussed, well, he had to ask his father for another gift.
