Homecoming from Hogwarts

The twists and turns of the night ended here. In the end, Dumbledore's shocking words were only regarded as a joke by Horn, and even Amosta didn't take them seriously. Even if one day we can really absorb these druids into the magical world, then at least It will be after they kill Voldemort.

When they parted, Horne obviously wanted to find out why Dumbledore and Brain both allowed Cliona to lurk in Hogwarts as Moody, but it was impossible for them to tell the centaurs the truth now. Even Dumbledore gave Horn a stern warning and did not allow Horn to tell them that they already knew her identity.

"In my opinion, Horn obviously still trusts the druids more -"

Entering the Hogwarts campus and walking towards the castle, Amosta, who was unusually silent, said abruptly.

"I wouldn't underestimate the risk of this, Amosta--"

Dumbledore said calmly,

"But you should learn to trust others. You have to rely on magic to get others to keep secrets for you. This is undoubtedly a very sad thing."

To some extent, Amosta was more cautious than himself. Dumbledore thought that it would take more words to persuade Amosta to accept his point of view, but to his surprise, Amosta He did not refute his point of view, but nodded silently.

"Amosta?"

In the dark hall, Dumbledore looked at Amosta who was silently going upstairs and suddenly called out. His blue eyes flashed with strange light and he said with a smile.
"Like I just said, you have to learn to trust other people. I mean, if you need some help from me, whether it's magic or life advice, you know, at least in terms of age, you're probably not beyond me. hope."

Amosta raised his eyebrows in surprise, then smiled.

"Thank you very much, Principal Dumbledore, but I am afraid that no one in this world can answer the confusion I am facing. Even if you can live to the next century--"

November ended quietly, and December came leisurely.

More than ten days have passed, and the atmosphere in the castle has quietly changed.People are no longer keen to discuss the first game of the Triwizard Tournament that has been published in newspapers for half a month, but are more looking forward to the coming of Christmas.

Tuesday night was the first night where stars could be seen in nearly half a month, so Professor Aurora Sinister issued an urgent notice. She temporarily changed the time of the class and asked Gryffindor and Hermione to The little wizard of Chipachi went to the astronomy tower to observe the stars.

And this notice undoubtedly made Hermione feel a little angry, because according to her plan, in addition to spending time in the library tonight to find some clues about the strange noise in the golden egg, she had other important things to go to. So, all the way up the tower, she complained to Harry and Ron about having her plans disrupted.

"Oh, come on, Hermione -"

Ron said nonchalantly,

"There are still three months until the next game, and there is a Christmas holiday in between. You have a lot of time to think about what the scary sound in the golden egg is--"

Ron looked at the schoolbag held in Hermione's arms,

"What's going on with the ding-dong-dong in your schoolbag? It must not be those letters from fans, right?"

Since the end of the competition, the few warriors who participated in the competition have become the darlings of the European magic community. Each of them has received countless letters, most of which expressed admiration for them, but many of the letters used The sharp words satirized their way of passing the fire dragon, and these letters did cause Hermione a certain amount of trouble at first, but after reading more, she became calmer.

"Oh, no."

Hermione clutched her schoolbag tightly and said hesitantly,
"This is. Well, I can't use my Christmas time, Ron. I plan to go home for Christmas and can't go to the library to look up information-"

"go home?"

Harry asked with some shock, but then he realized that he shouldn't express surprise at this, lest it reveal to Hermione that he hoped that both of them could stay with him to spend the holidays at Hogwarts. intention.

But to Harry's embarrassment, Hermione apparently discovered this. She looked at Harry apologetically, took a deep breath and said,
"Yeah, I plan to go home this Christmas. If anything happens to me in the second game. I mean, I spent the last Christmas with them——"

Hermione would never have been able to say something like this in such a calm tone before. Becoming a warrior has made Hermione change a lot - Harry and Ron, who were looking at each other uneasily, could see it. What the other person is thinking. "--Don't worry, Harry--"

Ron was the first to break the silence. He obviously saw the reason for Harry's surprise, "I plan to stay at Hogwarts for the holidays. Anyway, I am not the only one, and you have enough time to train me." , Harry, when school starts, maybe I can conduct the second training session. Oh, avoiding the big dung eggs, I really don’t know how you survived!"

"You're making rapid progress, Ron—"

Harry knew that Ron was trying to comfort himself by saying this, but a warm current arose in his heart, and he was once again grateful that Ron could be friends with him again.
"I think by the holidays, you can already try to practice dodging. There will be no one in the school during the holidays, and we can make full use of the gap in the physical education classroom."

Harry, Ron and Hermione climbed up to the observatory in the astronomy class one after another. In order to get the best view, the place was empty and had no walls. The remaining pillars obviously couldn't protect them from the cold wind. .

"I'm sorry, Amosta, I have to start class-"

The biting cold wind made the little wizards shiver. Harry wished he could wrap his head in a scarf like Quirrell who was studying the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in his first year. As he was shrinking his head, he suddenly heard the astronomy class. At the sound of Professor Sinistra's voice, he looked behind a stone pillar in shock, while Hermione, Ron, Neville and others around him all looked at that side in surprise.

Amosta, who was bending over and pressing his face against an astronomical telescope, suddenly came to his senses. He straightened up and looked back at the little wizards who were supporting him, and smiled apologetically.

"Oh, sorry, Aurora, I, um, got a little lost--"

"It's nothing, Amosta, the mysterious starry sky always fascinates people--"

Professor Sinistra said without mind at all. On the contrary, she looked very happy, with earnestness in her tone.
"You were not so interested in my classes when you were in Hogwarts. Amosta, maybe you finally realized the importance of astronomy. Oh, if you are willing, you can also listen on the side. I I’m sure these kids won’t mind—”

"Oh, thanks, but I have other things to do, so next time..."

Amosta nodded gratefully, and then walked quickly down the observatory under the confused gazes of many young wizards.

"Perhaps you have discovered-"

Professor Sinister said seriously,
"Even a great wizard like Professor Brain is very fascinated by the mysterious laws of planetary motion. I hope you can all feel the magic of astronomy. As I told you when you took your first astronomy class, astronomy is all magic. It is the most mysterious and impenetrable subject, and only diligence and dedication can help you feel the mystery of this magical subject!"

"I remember that old liar Trelawney said something similar-"

Ron said with a shrug, and his words aroused strong dissatisfaction from Patil and Lavender, who were the two most obsessed with Professor Trelawney among the Gryffindor students.

"But I have to say, this is weird--"

Hermione frowned and said,

"Perhaps you haven't noticed that Professor Blaine rarely goes down to the auditorium to eat during this period. Moreover, he didn't seem very attentive in last week's physical education class. He is usually not like this."

"Have it?"

Harry said in surprise. He recalled carefully and found that he found nothing.

Hermione rolled her eyes, and then faced the stairs where Professor Blaine disappeared with worry.

"Anyway, I hope he gets over his troubles as soon as possible--"
