At this moment, Snape's face was extremely gloomy, as if someone had just punched him head-on, blackening his face.
His eyes were fixed on the package in front of him, as if the package contained not Valentine's Day chocolates, but a countdown time bomb.
A strange atmosphere suddenly filled the hall, and the surroundings were eerily quiet. Even Lockhart, who had been smiling just now, froze. The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor also noticed the dangerous aura emanating from his colleagues.
The silence only lasted for a while, and sporadic whispers began to appear in the hall, and the sounds became denser like rain falling from the sky.
Everyone was curious as to who gave Snape the Valentine's Day chocolates.
This matter will probably become one of the rare unsolved mysteries at Hogwarts.
"I remember that Snape received Valentine's Day chocolates every year!" Hearing several people nearby discussing this matter in low voices, Albert suddenly said, "Maybe Snape has a girlfriend."
"No one knows who sent Valentine's Day chocolates to Snape." Fred and George both suppressed laughter.
yes!
No one knows who sent the Valentine's Day gift. It is said that there is no signature on the package.
Did Snape ever eat the chocolate inside the package?
All right!
At least, Albert didn't care.
After the depressing atmosphere disappeared, Lockhart quickly returned to normal. Just when he was about to open his mouth to continue saying something, another owl flew towards the teacher's chair and threw a package in front of him.
There was also a greeting card attached to the package, which was densely packed with unfamiliar words.
"A gift from a foreign friend?"
Lockhart couldn't read Italian, but with his experience he quickly found the right words.
"Ahem, okay, I took it upon myself to prepare some little surprises for everyone!" Lockhart clapped his hands.
The teachers and students in the hall soon saw Lockhart's so-called surprise.
From several doors leading to the foyer, twelve dwarfs with gloomy faces strode into the hall. These guys all had golden wings on their backs and carried a harp on their backs.
"This is definitely the ugliest Cupid I have ever seen." Albert looked at the ugly and rude dwarf and suddenly lost his appetite.
"They should carry bows and arrows instead of harps." Zannah complained, obviously agreeing with Albert's point of view. "What is this, a dwarf?"
"Well, they are dwarfs, similar to goblins and house elves. Gnomes are usually very strong and can also use magic." When Lee Jordan explained dwarfs to Shanna, he couldn't help complaining, "I think Ai should be
Bert's broken mouth is blocked, his last prediction is probably going to come true, I have a feeling that Lockhart will make Valentine's Day a mess."
However, Lockhart didn't seem to hear the students' complaints and taunts, and said happily: "Our friendly little Cupid with greeting cards will be wandering around the school today delivering Valentine's Day cards to you, so don't
Shy, you should actively participate in this event!"
When Lockhart said this, several of Albert's roommates looked at him with pity. They all thought that Albert would probably receive a bunch of Valentine's Day cards.
After all, this is really a rare opportunity.
"Of course, if you are interested, you can also ask the professors for their tips. I dare say that no one is more proficient in the charm magic of enchanting people than Professor Flitwick." Lockhart winked at the students present.
He showed his signature smile and said, "Of course, you can also ask Professor Snape to teach you how to prepare a love potion. I believe that my colleagues are willing to... enthusiastically..."
Lockhart suddenly shut up. The students who heard the sound turned their heads and saw a large group of owls swarming into the hall.
This scene gave several professors a bad premonition, thinking it was Lockhart's trick again, and sent a large group of owls to give them Valentine's Day gifts.
It's no wonder that professors have such thoughts, Lockhart has had similar cases before.
Well, in fact, Lockhart also thought that these owls were here to give him Valentine's Day chocolates. His face was already full of smiles, and he was even ready to open his arms to hug them, but soon his face
The smile froze.
One owl landed and dropped the package in front of Albert. The second, third, fourth, and fifth owl flapped its wings and landed next to him, squeezing around on the table.
Not only did he crush the butter on the plate, knock over the salt shaker on the table, and drop a feather in the pumpkin porridge, all of them wanted to hand over the package to him.
There was a large wave of owls, most of which delivered packages to Albert. Lockhart only received a few sporadic packages, and his cheeks couldn't help but twitch.
Well, he had already received a wave of greeting cards, but seeing this scene, he still couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
"You're still so popular!"
Fred looked at the piled packages and couldn't help but sigh.
"I'm going to get out of the way first. You can help me sort out the packages and unpack whatever you want to eat." Albert noticed Lockhart walking towards this direction, whispered a few instructions to Fred beside him, and stood up.
Dodged people.
"He's so popular!" Ron's tone was sour, "Even Harry doesn't get such treatment."
"Forget it, I don't want to be so popular!" Harry noticed Lockhart's actions just now, and now he wanted to laugh, and his mood was extremely happy.
"By the way Hermione, haven't you given him a gift too?" Ron cast a searching look at Hermione. He knew that Hermione had sent a Valentine's Day card to Albert.
Hermione didn't answer, and suddenly looked at her class schedule with interest.
Lockhart regretted that he could not catch Albert and take the opportunity to gain a sense of presence. He returned to his teacher's seat and looked through the Valentine's Day chocolates he had received.
"Does anyone know this kind of writing?" Lockhart asked several colleagues around him.
"It's a bit like Italian." Professor McGonagall had traveled to many countries before and knew a lot of languages.
"It should be a gift from a fan."
Lockhart smiled and opened the package in front of several professors, and found that it was not Valentine's Day chocolate, but a whole block of cheese.
At this moment, Lockhart was a little confused. He couldn't understand why someone would give him cheese on Valentine's Day.
Could it be that they just happened to bump into each other? If it is a coincidence, then it is really such a coincidence.
"This thing looks good. It should be cheese produced in Italy. Would you like some?"
In order to cover up his embarrassment, Lockhart had already picked up the knife and fork next to him and was about to cut a piece of cheese to taste it.
However, he soon discovered that the table knife could not cut the cheese very well, so he had to pull out his wand and use the cutting spell to cut off a piece of cheese from the whole block.
When Lockhart picked up the piece of cheese and was about to taste it, his eyes were immediately drawn to the milky white, translucent worms on the Casumazu cheese!
Especially when the moving maggot jumped out of the cheese and almost jumped into Lockhart's face, he was so frightened that he threw the piece of cheese away and couldn't help but scream.
ah!
The hall suddenly became eerily silent. All attention was drawn to Lockhart who screamed. The students looked towards the teacher's seat, trying to figure out what happened.
Why did Professor Lockhart suddenly scream?
A muscle on Professor McGonagall's cheek bulged out, as if she wanted to smile. What was even more amazing was that most of the gloom on Snape's face had disappeared. He was looking at Lockhart's cheese curiously, with an extremely strange expression.
Professor Flitwick poked the maggots on the cheese with a knife and said to Lockhart, "Maybe this cheese is a specialty of Italy."
Lockhart, who finally calmed down, looked unhappy. He realized that he had just lost his composure. After hearing Professor Flitwick's words, he said loudly, "I didn't expect that people in Italy like to eat cheese with worms like this.
