I can enter Hogwarts in the last days

Chapter 99 The Invitation to Christmas

The severe cold and blizzard outside could not pass through the thick castle.

Compared with other colleges, Ravenclaw's eaglets always like to gather in the common room in this kind of weather, with a strong fire in the fireplace, and then meet to read and chat, or go in pairs A game of Wizard Chess.

In winter, while enjoying the warmth of the fire, listening to the white noise of firewood crackling in the flames, while watching the cold wind whistling and snow covered outside the window, staying in such an environment can effectively improve happiness index.

However, the hardest ones still belong to those owls, even if the wind and snow are blowing, they still need to work hard.In particular, Christmas is two days away, which makes many students hire a messenger owl in the owl shed, and the cost will be several times higher than in the past.

It is worth mentioning that the owls in the school are not completely free to use. Although they are free in theory, these clever little guys fully understand the way of doing business and the essence of starting a price on the ground.

They always ask the little wizard for extra payment, either a bag of owl nuts, or a few scattered copper Knuts, so that they can ask the administrator for extra food after delivering the letter.

And under this kind of weather, the price list in the past has been completely abolished, and now they hardly go out to pick up jobs, and they prefer to huddle together in the shed to keep each other warm, of course...unless you really give enough , otherwise they would not move.

In contrast, private owls have not been so lucky. They used to be the envy of public owls, but now...

Thinking of this, Ian turned his head and glanced at Lily who was squatting on the shelf and dozing off with half-closed eyes.

"You're almost growing into a round ball...you don't know how to fly around all day long."

Perhaps feeling that the master was talking to her, Lily opened her eyes a little lazily, looked at Ian with a naive and innocent look, spread out a wing at the same time, waved it symbolically twice, and then closed her eyes bunk.

"Uh... you can do whatever you want... anyway, I can afford it." Ian looked at the reaction of his own owl and reluctantly compromised.

Turning around and walking towards the door of the common room, he liked to sit quietly in the corner of the lounge by himself, and then watched the lively and cheerful scenes of the other eaglets.Although he has lived in Hogwarts for several months, this immersive feeling still fascinates him.

……

Ian was sitting on the single sofa in the corner, holding a copy of "Transformation Today" magazine in his hand, just sitting quietly like this.

"Should I buy a cat? I always feel that in this kind of atmosphere, reading a book while petting a cat is the most pleasant." He rested his chin on his hand and thought to himself.

"Do you like the feeling of being hidden in the sky but overlooking everything?"

Suddenly a voice came from his ear, which interrupted his thinking. He turned his head and looked, and found that it was Penello who hadn't talked for a long time, so he said easily:

"Dear prefect, I like excitement, but I don't like the excitement that belongs to me, so sitting here and watching without participating is the greatest enjoyment for me."

Penello didn't say much when he heard the words, he directly pulled the chair next to him, and sat beside Ian uninvited like this, and then he said:
"Your character...you don't know how many girls are sad because of this, especially these days, you are wandering around the castle with a camera all day long. I don't know about other colleges, but none of the girls in Ravenclaw don't want to Those who took a photo with you are only hindered by your indifferent and ruthless politeness...no one dared to speak."

Ian also laughed at himself when he heard the words: "When is politeness interpreted as indifference and ruthlessness?"

"Heh! Only you know what you think." Penello rarely had the emotions of a little girl. "Professor Flitwick asked me to count the Christmas holiday stayers. So, what about you?"

"I have my own arrangements during this period, so I don't choose to stay in school, but I will still attend the Christmas dinner."

Ian does have a lot of things to do for Christmas, not just the publishing house that he agreed with Ivy, he also plans to take advantage of the holidays to go to Diagon Alley to purchase a wave of potion materials.

"Okay! My mission is done. You don't make decisions. The Ravenclaw girls always push me around. Now that I have the answer, my job will be much easier."

Only then did Ian realize that he was surprised that such a small matter would not allow Penello to go there himself. It seemed that some people wanted to wait and see, and then make a choice after he had a result.

The Hogwarts Christmas holiday actually started on the afternoon of December 12rd and lasted until January 23th, but it happened to be on Friday, so the entire holiday this year lasted for 1 days. Apart from the summer vacation, it is the vacation we are most looking forward to.

It’s just that some students habitually spend the Christmas dinner at school, and will choose to leave school on December 12th, and Ian also chooses this way. After all, he is alone, and it’s better to stay at school for the dinner.

……

It's just that many things often fail to keep up with the changes in the plan. In the afternoon after Ian and Penello finished talking, Hermione stopped him in the auditorium.

"Come home with me for Christmas?" Hermione extended the invitation generously.

Just ignore her trembling ears, otherwise it's hard to see that the girl may not be as calm as she looks on the surface.

Ian, on the other hand, fell into thinking. The long-standing life pattern, or the difference between the East and the West, made him hesitate. After all, this is the day when the family reunite, and he, an outsider, suddenly gets involved... It always feels uncomfortable. suitable.

Seeing Ian who hesitated, Hermione decisively took out a letter and handed it to him.

"Here! Let's see, my dad also wants to invite you to our house for Christmas. I'm sorry Ian, I told them about your life experience..." Hermione lowered her head a little embarrassedly.

Looking at the content of the letter, the sincere invitation and the polite wording, Ian really couldn't refuse now.

For Hermione to tell his family about his life experience, in Ian's opinion, this is nothing at all, and it's not a shameful thing.Besides, after such a long time, his life experience has long been no secret.

Others don't know, but Old Tom at the Leaky Cauldron knows it, and if Old Tom knows it, it means the King of the Iron Hat——Hanna knows it... Calculated like this, almost half of Hogwarts knows it.

"Ha, it's nothing. It's something everyone knows anyway. You don't have to be sorry. On the contrary, I would like to thank you for your invitation. Otherwise, I would have to stay at school for the dinner." Ian said in a relaxed tone.

Maybe Hermione breathed a sigh of relief when she found that Ian really didn't care, and raised her head with some joy...
