Days wandering around Hogwarts

Chapter 514: Who was it given to?

It rains heavily during Valentine's Day, and the owls in the sky are heartbroken.

If asked who received the most gifts, Moody pointed to Charles.

As breakfast was coming to an end, a large group of owls flapped their wings and flew into the cafeteria, shaking off the rain on their feathers. It seemed as if it was raining, and the students near the gate had to conjure up an umbrella and hold it up.

A large group of owls formed a long flying formation, circled gracefully under the ceiling, between the candles, aimed at Charles, and threw.

The colorful gift boxes clattered onto Charles, and the students sitting nearby dodged away.

In the blink of an eye, Charles was buried under a mountain of gift boxes.

Hermione picked up a gift box and read the words on it: "To my dearest boss - Marilyn Monroe."

Dean Thomas asked in surprise, "Who sent it?"

He felt like he heard a remarkable name.

"Wow!"

A hand stretched out from the pile of gifts, which was scary.

Charles emerged from the pile of presents.

"An elf who works for us," he said to Dean. "If you want to meet her, I can arrange a date with her during next Hogsmeade week."

Dean immediately shook his head.

Hermione put the gift box back and asked nervously, "Why did she give you a gift?"

She had a deep understanding of Charles's aesthetic issues, but was a little worried that she might have gone too far.

Charles picked up a few gift boxes and looked at them. He said unhappily, "The employees in the company are joking with me. Look, Penelope has also come to join in the fun. If I had known, I would have arranged for Percy to work overtime today."

He handed the box to Hermione and saw that it bore the name Penelope Clearwater.

The people around were immediately disappointed, as they thought there was something big to eat.

Charles put all the gifts into the bag, and when he looked up, he saw an owl landed in front of Fleur. He thought that the gifts Dobby had bought had arrived.

Furong unwrapped the gift, and it was a piece of rose syrup chocolate from Erica.

She looked at Charles expectantly and found that Charles just turned his head away.

"Wow!"

The students were in an uproar. Three phoenixes flew side by side, pulling a golden carriage, and stopped in front of Professor McGonagall.

Harry exclaimed, "Why is there another phoenix?!"

People were used to having two phoenixes at Hogwarts, but they didn't expect a third one to appear.

Charles shrugged and said, "That's Sparks, the mascot of the New Zealand Quidditch team, the Mottola Macaws. Grandpa asked me to contact them and borrow the ruby ​​for today."

Many people suddenly realized that it was no wonder that they hadn't seen Ruby for a long time. It turned out that he had gone to work.

It is not easy to hire Sparks, Charles also has to treat it to a meal. Fortunately, it likes to eat oysters and the like, which is easy.

Ruby knew how to get to the Dancing Grass restaurant to eat, so she asked it to take Fox and Sparkle to eat by themselves.

Many professors looked at Professor McGonagall with envy. Today's scene was quite big, and not everyone could easily find three phoenixes.

On the way to class, many classmates came over to tease Charles, asking if they would have to give him gifts every Valentine's Day if they worked in his company in the future.

In the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, Moody said to the students: "Today, we will start learning the Shield Charm."

"This is a very useful spell to prevent you from being overwhelmed by too many gifts on Valentine's Day."

When he finished speaking, his evil eye turned to Charles.

The students naturally knew who he was talking about and burst into laughter.

Moody added seriously, "The Shield Charm is a very difficult spell. Many adult wizards are unable to master it."

"I have to say that the professor who compiled the textbook was very far-sighted. He started teaching it in the fourth grade. It doesn't matter if you don't learn it this year. You will learn this important spell every year in the future."

Upon hearing this, Charles couldn't help but wonder whether Voldemort planned the teaching content according to his own success when he wrote the teaching outline.

"But," Moody's voice became a little higher, "Don't take it lightly just because there are still classes next year. According to my suggestion, the Armor Charm will be one of the required subjects!"

The students immediately opened their textbooks and notebooks and prepared to take notes. The learning process that followed was not easy.

Moody got a lot of Bludgers from somewhere, one for each person. If they couldn't cast the Shield Charm, they would be knocked down.

The students dispersed, and soon they were falling to the ground, screaming in agony.

Charles sat on the ground in a daze. The Bludger kept hitting and then bouncing to other places, such as the back of Neville's head, Ron's shin bone, and Harry's crown.

In a few minutes, everyone stayed away from him.

Moody gave Gryffindor one point as a token of his appreciation.

After class, many students supported each other as they left.

During lunch, Charles suddenly noticed that Furong was looking at him with some resentment.

He wondered in his heart, could it be that the cup he gave her was too ordinary on that day and not what the girl liked, so she was angry?

This is a bit troublesome, but I can't just change it.

During lunch break, Charles continued to work in the greenhouse. After almost two years of cultivation with Muggle fertilizers, many perennial herbs had become increasingly different in size.

It seems that I can still write a paper during this summer vacation.

In the castle, Erica asked Fleur in surprise: "Charles hasn't given you a gift yet?"

Furong said hypocritically: "It's okay, he has been very busy recently, so he might have forgotten."

Erica suddenly laughed evilly: "Maybe he wants to ask you out tonight, and take the opportunity of giving you a gift to give you... hehehe..."

Furong's face suddenly turned red, and she said nervously, "No...no way...!"

"This is a school. Doing things like this in school is not good."

Erica said, "Have you forgotten Farbaton Castle? He has to work overtime every night."

"If he invites you there tonight, hehehehe..."

Now Furong became nervous, wondering what she would do if Charles really did that.

While eating dinner, Charles suddenly noticed that Fleur was glancing at him from time to time and seemed particularly nervous.

Before he could thank me, something happened.

"Someone got into a fight at the Dancing Grass Restaurant?!"

Dumbledore's hand holding the bread stopped in front of his mouth.

Charles said gloomily, "He is a senior official of the Ministry of Magic from a foreign country."

He just came to ask for leave to go out. When Dumbledore heard that he was a foreigner, he said, "I will go with you. The identity of the President of the International Confederation of Wizards is still useful."

The two quickly arrived at the first floor of the Dancing Grass Restaurant. There were four people confronting each other in the open space in the middle. There was a pile of broken chairs, tableware and crystal chandeliers that should have been on the ceiling on the ground. There were also several humanoids holding weapons on guard. Dobby was acting as a peacemaker. The guests around him were eating leisurely, as if they were watching a show.

Dumbledore knew the wizard who was causing the trouble, and went over to chat with him.

Charles was listening with a frown on his face.

The official said he was on a business trip these days and brought his lover to the Dancing Grass Restaurant for dinner today.

Unexpectedly, when his wife saw that he was not at home, she also went on a cross-border date with her lover.

So, we met here.

Dumbledore's face still worked. The four men paid the money and walked out of the restaurant with glares at each other.

Now that he was out, Charles went straight to Farbatten Castle after finishing his business.

Before leaving, Dobby said to him, "Boss, the gift for Miss Delacour has been delivered."

Charles nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Dobby said, "It's not hard. It's just a trip to France."

Charles:? ? ?
