A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 252: gift
The next morning, Christmas finally came.
Felix got up early, and when he came out of the bedroom, the small Christmas tree in the office was already filled with all kinds of Christmas presents.
He opened the box happily, "A book, not bad." He put "Forgotten Ancient Magic and Spells" aside, "Unfortunately, I have already read it."
"Huh, Trelawney actually gave me a gift?" Felix thought he was dazzled, and he took another look at the signature on the note. That's right, it was Sybill Trelawney, and opened the package Paper, inside is a long bead chain, this thing can fit three him.
He read the content on the sticky note, as usual, it was a sentence of gods and gods-"Provide protection in the dark." Felix shrugged, "You really have you, I have quit your class, and I can still Find an opportunity to prophesy to me."
He is going to send a barrel of honey sherry from the Three Broomsticks as a gift in return, um...write it down first, and we will deal with it together after the gift is unwrapped.
He opened another package, which was the "Batter's Bible" given to him by Professor McGonagall. He randomly flipped through a page, and on it was written "First Principle: Kill the Seeker". Overjoyed, he grinned.
Felix kept opening gift boxes, most of which were books, and he had read quite a few of them. He suddenly realized Dumbledore's troubles.
He said to himself: "Many people think that they should give me books, and they also think that I will like books."
Fortunately, Dumbledore gave Felix a homemade small silverware, similar to the ornaments he placed on the principal's desk, as long as it is lightly touched, it will spray clusters of water mist ;Hagrid gave him a large bottle of acromantula venom, he didn't know how to use it, maybe he could transfer it to Professor Snape next year? Snape sent a small bottle of powerful antidote, "just enough to cooperate with the powerful Veritaserum that I sent last year."
Professor Flitwick gave a certain top hat, and even Lupine also sent some magical creature materials. Judging from the processing method, Felix guessed that he might have "made" it himself.
Among these presents, he found an unsigned gift box, which had just arrived this morning. When opened, there is a clay doll inside.
Felix recognized the puppet as "his" from the black hair and blue eyes.
Although there is no signature, Felix is no stranger to this unique earthy smell. He picked it up and played with it for a while before putting the doll away.
The process of unwrapping the presents lasted for an hour, and he also wrote down a string of names on the parchment next to him, all of which required gifts in return.
"Well, Christmas requires work too."
…
At the same time, the three of Harry came to Hagrid's cabin.
"Hagrid, open the door, it's us—" Harry knocked on the door vigorously, while pushing the excited Fang away, its tongue licked his hand, leaving a mouthful of saliva, which was immediately carried away by the cold wind The heat from your hands.
The door opened, revealing Hagrid's decadent bearded face, "You guys came early today, there's no need for it - the hearing is going to be almost summer, I, I have to cheer up too - hiccup!" Wine hiccup, sour breath sprayed Harry's face.
Harry hastily slipped in through the gap between his arms. The fireplace in the cabin was blazing, and a large bundle of firewood was piled up beside the fireplace. Buckbeak was lying in the corner, with a large iron bucket in front of him.
Ron came in right behind him, shaking the snow on his feet, "Hey, Buckbeak, hello." He glanced into the bucket, which was sticky, finger-thin white Worm, he was disgusted, "Hagrid, what is this! It looks like an enlarged maggot..."
Hagrid lifted Hermione up like a small animal or something—"Oh, thanks!" He said in a low voice: "That's the larva of the Flobber caterpillar. You will learn about it later. They are easy to live and eat all kinds of plants. I'm going to the cafeteria to see what's left and feed them."
Ron stammered, "Don't tell me, you're going to make us raise this thing in class?" His face was as pale as Draco's.
Hagrid blushed and said, "I may not be interested in class for a while, you know, because of Buckbeak. In fact, Flobber caterpillars are also very good, safe, full of treasures, slime can It can also be used as food for other animals.”
Hermione said worriedly: "Come on, Hagrid—we, we're here for Buckbeak's case."
Harry and Ron nodded together, trying to dispel Hagrid's thoughts, "Don't worry about it, Hagrid, you are quite popular now." Ron said, "Except for Slytherin."
Since the accident in the first class, Hagrid was worried that he would be expelled, but he was relieved after Felix dismissed him. Later, he followed Felix's advice and taught unicorns, swallowtails Dogs, Bowtruckles, Flower Fairies, Ball Dungeons and more.
Except for the lessons of Acromantus and Aurora, the feedback from most of the rest is quite good.
For example, unicorns, ball birds and flower fairies are very popular with junior wizards, especially witches, because they are so cute.
Young unicorns have golden fluff and are golden all over, like creatures out of the best fairy tales.
Ball escape birds are chubby, fluffy, flightless birds, but their bodies are extremely flexible, and they can suddenly appear from one place to another, although the distance they move each time is not counted. Far, but enough to keep them safe from most dangers.
As for the flower fairies, they have a similar appearance to humans, except that they have a pair of insect wings on their backs. They are generally not very intelligent, and they often quarrel over various trivial matters, but they accidentally poke a lot of little girls. cute point.
Hagrid looked at them suspiciously, and the three immediately talked about Felix's suggestion.
"Can it work?"
"Try it, Hagrid! It can't get any worse."
So Hagrid wrote a letter to Professor Kettleburn~IndoMTL.com~ The ink Hagrid put on the windowsill was about to solidify into a lump, and finally Hermione conjured up a bright blue flame, Melt the ink away.
When they came out of Hagrid's hut, Hermione said with great expectation: "I really hope that Professor Kettleburn can influence the Ministry of Magic."
Harry and Ron also had expressions of approval, but the next second, Hermione became serious: "Harry, I still want to discuss the Firebolt with you."
"Oh, don't spoil the fun, Hermione, it's Christmas," said Ron.
"What else? After you've tried the Firebolt? I need to remind you - it's unknown, unsigned, no note, nothing!" Hermione squealed.
"Really? You know what I think? I hope you take care of your cat and stop letting it try to sneak into the bedroom!" Ron also raised his voice. "Banban is already very pitiful!"
Harry looked helpless, the two had quarreled many times over Hermione's cat, Crookshanks. That cat was really weird. It always stared at Ron's pet, Spotted. Although it was common knowledge that cats eat mice, he sincerely hoped that it could be exchanged for food, even if it was a juicy spider.
