Drinking black tea calmly at Hogwarts

╰°°;へ333

Near noon, a sudden heavy rain stormed Hogwarts accompanied by lightning and thunder.

Like the other students playing by the lake, Zhang Xu randomly found something around him and turned it into an umbrella, then ran towards the castle holding the umbrella.

At this time, it was time to prepare for lunch, so a group of students simply went to the cafeteria and waited to prepare lunch.

While eating lunch, Zhang Xu found that Xiao Ma did not appear in the cafeteria.

After a quick lunch, Zhang Xu left the cafeteria, cast a disillusionment spell on himself in the empty corridor, and walked towards Myrtle's washroom.

While in the corridor, Zhang Xu had already looked at the Marauder's Map when there was no one there, and found that Xiao Ma was alone in the girls' bathroom.

￣￣;

Zhang Xu, who leaned his ear against the bathroom door, vaguely heard a boy's voice crying inside. After listening carefully, the crying person inside was definitely Malfoy.

At this moment, Zhang Xu's heart suddenly moved, and he immediately raised his wand and pointed to his side.

Zhang Xu didn't expect that there would be someone next to him using the illusion spell to eavesdrop on the movement in the girl's bathroom like him. If he didn't feel the breeze brought by the other party walking, Zhang Xu really couldn't find the other party.

And he didn't expect that the other party used the silent manifestation spell on the other party like himself.

When the two people in front of the door saw each other clearly, the scene fell into extreme embarrassment.

Zhang Xu: After being invisible, what should I do if the principal finds me outside the girl's bathroom? Wait online, urgently.

After Zhang Xu and Lao Deng stared at each other for a while, they unanimously chose to cast the Illusion Curse on themselves again to become invisible.

As for classmate Xiao Ma in the bathroom, he didn't know that he was being watched secretly.

With Lao Deng around, sneaking into the bathroom without a sound was a piece of cake.

The current situation in the bathroom is very suitable for reading comprehension test questions in Chinese class test papers.

The rain was blown into the bathroom through the window by the storm, and fell on Malfoy who was curled up on the ground. Malfoy's sobs seemed so small under the accompaniment of thunder.

According to the problem-solving idea of ​​reading comprehension, this scene describes Malfoy's inner weakness and helplessness.

And the actual situation is the same now, and now Malfoy is only one step away from crying and fainting in the bathroom.

Although Zhang Xu was not sure whether Malfoy had received Voldemort's mission to assassinate Dumbledore, or even his own mission, after all, Lucius Malfoy hadn't been captured this time, and Voldemort had no reason to let the pony take action.

But judging from his current situation of being overwhelmed by pressure, Voldemort's mission is [-]% similar to the one in the "plot".

When you think about it, it's not surprising that he was overwhelmed by such a series of major events such as the basically impossible task of assassinating Dumbledore, followed by a burning home and missing parents.

And what surprised Zhang Xu the most was why Malfoy would stay at Hogwarts at this time.

In the past few years at Hogwarts, Zhang Xu knew that when students had accidents at home or relatives passed away, the school would give students vacations to go home to deal with family affairs.

And now that Malfoy didn't go home to have a look, and the pony's identity was very special, and it was a tacit secret that his father was one of the Death Eaters, so his actions could not help but arouse suspicion.

Perhaps Lao Deng was puzzled by this point, so he came to follow Xiao Ma.

It's just that the harvest of this follow-up operation is almost zero, and student Xiao Ma didn't do much other than almost crying and fainting.

Resisting the idea of ​​taking the opportunity to send Legilimency to Xiao Ma, Zhang Xu left the bathroom.

If Pony has passed out from crying, then there is nothing wrong with using Legilimency on him. If you use it on him when he is still a little sane, he might be discovered.

After leaving Myrtle's territory, Zhang Xu went back to his dormitory to freshen up and prepare for the honor ceremony held at the Ministry of Magic tonight.

As a man, Zhang Xu's dressing up is the same thing. After washing his head and face, combing his hair, and changing into decent clothes, he is basically done.

Today Zhang Xu is wearing the same blue robe that he wore at the Christmas dinner of the Triwizard Tournament two years ago.

Looking at the time, it was still a long time before arriving at the principal's office, so Zhang Xu began to take care of the flowers and plants in the dormitory.

After Professor Bubaji came back, Zhang Xu immediately moved all the flowers and plants in the Muggle Studies office back to the dormitory, except for a few pots on the balcony where Professor Sprout failed to cultivate and could only bring them to the dormitory. Except for the ornamental peas, other non-aggressive plants are arranged in the living room.

When there was still a quarter of an hour before the meeting time, someone directly pushed open the door of Zhang Xu's dormitory, and looked at Zhang Xu who was watering the flowers and plants like a retired veteran cadre.

After seeing the person coming, Zhang Xu realized that it was almost time to set off.

"Are you going to fly away by yourself?"

Scarlet said speechlessly to Zhang Xu who was holding a small shovel to loosen the soil from the marigolds on the windowsill.

"Uh, I forgot to set the alarm clock, let's go now." Zhang Xu said to Scarlet somewhat embarrassedly.

According to the agreed plan, Zhang Xu should find her in her dormitory 15 minutes before, and then go to Lao Deng's office together.

Zhang Xu put the shovel in his hand to the side of the marigold pot, drained the soil from his hands, and left with Scarlett.

After two or three days of Zhang Xu's hard work, Scarlet finally declined the invitation to attend the Merlin Medal Awards Gala together as his partner.

Only that day did Zhang Xu know that she had also received an invitation letter, so she was going to attend the awards ceremony as a family representative.

And according to information obtained from other channels, Scrimgeour added a deeper meaning to this awards show.

So Scarlet must first consider this matter from the standpoint of the family.

According to Zhang Xu's analysis, Scrimgeour's biggest problem is to hold this awards show as a party for all parties to take sides.At that time, those who support him will stand aside, and those who support Voldemort will be "sent out of the country" first, and finally everyone will see the real chapter under their hands.

Zhang Xu knew that Scarlett's family had been planning to return to England for the past few years, so he let her go.

As for a partner or something, if you don’t have one, you don’t have one, anyway, don’t force it.If it weren't for the restrictions imposed by the Ministry of Magic, Zhang would really like to imitate the behavior of the 1999 Nobel Prize winner in Medicine, Gut Blober, who brought 49 people to the Nobel Prize Gala at once.

Although the two are not partners, they are also an all-round strategic partnership at the award show, so sometimes they have to make some moves in step to show others.

This is the case with a social evening party, where you need to express your position between words and manners.

Sometimes under the communication of the middleman, the representatives of the two families clink glasses and drink wine, which means that the two families give the middleman face and start to ease the relationship.Sometimes a few words of ridicule by a person to others means that he tells everyone that the war between them is preparing to start, and everyone quickly chooses a position.Sometimes people from two factions stand together and talk and laugh happily. When talking with others, they advance and retreat together, which is to tell others that we have joined forces, and everyone who wants to make a fortune come over for a drink.

And various evening parties are a platform for these people to express and hint various information to the outside world.

From this, it can be foreseen that tonight's party is another place where everyone drinks and negotiates together.

It's just that I don't know what kind of message Scrimgeour will release on such an occasion.

As for the protagonists in online novels who feel that such a party is hypocritical and useless, it's just that their level has not reached the level of understanding the function of such a party.
