Looking at Crookshanks leaving, Hermione complained: "I didn't expect that even Crookshanks could receive a Christmas gift."
"Please, Crookshanks helped Sirius a lot." Tom shrugged, "But speaking of gifts, apart from what I gave you, what else did you receive?"
Hermione's eyes wandered for a moment, and she hesitated to express that she hadn't received anything.
This is a lie. Of course He received Christmas gifts from other people. Needless to say, the Grangers gave their daughter a dental care set of the same style as Tom. Except for the different colors of the toothbrushes inside, there was nothing.
the difference.
But this set of gifts is not the point. The point is the things given by Hermione's roommates, each of which is more and more inappropriate. Sue Li gave a bottle of perfume, and the name is very inappropriate: Kill the Man. It is said that
Once sprayed on, it will make a man fascinated.
Hermione stuffed this thing at the bottom of the box without thinking - she was good at potions and knew exactly what a perfume with this effect meant.
Padma gave her a book, a best-seller in her hometown: "Kama Sutra", an ancient Indian book on philosophy and psychology. It talks about many postures, secret tricks and tips.
Shi. However, it would be a bit one-sided to think that there are only such colorful things in it. Because the purpose of writing this book is actually to prevent divorce.
The logic of the whole book is to 'let happy lovers achieve happier marriages'. In its description, sex is sacred and requires lovers to be completely united physically and mentally. In addition to some dazzling postures and acrobatic movements, "Love"
The Sutra is mainly a manual that presents the entire relationship between men and women. It touches on the social relationship, emotional harmony, and finally physical pleasure of both men and women.
Padma had explained this in the gift package, so Hermione didn't stuff the book and the bottle of perfume together, but put it in her school bag.
Tom knew Hermione well, and he could tell at a glance that this girl wasn't telling the truth. But since she didn't want to tell, there was always a reason, and he didn't have to force her. He would know after watching over it in the future. Anyway, the list of gift givers was also
Just those few, it's not hard to guess.
After the two of them disposed of the Firebolts and cat food, they continued to do their homework - the episode just made them waste a lot of time, and they had to race against time to get it back.
Soon, it was lunch time. While combing her hair, Mrs. Granger came down from upstairs and went to the kitchen to make lunch for the family.
Tom saw Mrs. Granger taking out yesterday's leftover turkey and bread from the refrigerator, so he decided to go see Huck today without further ado.
"I have something else to do, so I'll excuse you." He said it as he said, and before Hermione could react, Tom had already walked to the door.
"After lunch -" Hermione stretched out her hand, trying to retain her - this was such a new force, how could they just run away? Unfortunately, it was too late, Tom didn't hear her words, or maybe he heard Hermione's words clearly.
Snap!
After a loud bang, Tom disappeared.
Hermione:......
She covered her forehead helplessly: Why don't you take me with you!
Huck was standing on the windowsill, smoking his pipe one after another. He frowned, as if something was bothering him.
"Should I support Duncan or Eric?" Huck was in a dilemma. Duncan was the finance minister and Eric was the foreign minister. Both of them were strong contenders for the new prime minister.
The resignation of the old prime minister is already a certainty - since he gave his Christmas speech, everything has been irreversible. Unless a large-scale war suddenly breaks out, no one can prevent him from leaving office.
For Huck, the most important thing is to gain a firm foothold in the new round of reshuffles, not to mention seeking benefits, but at least not to lose his current status.
If you want to reap benefits, you must seek refuge with one of Duncan or Eric, and then support him to become the new prime minister. This is the easiest way, and it is also the most difficult way. Because in this two-choice game,
If you make a mistake, you will lose all your capital.
What's more, both of them extended an olive branch to Huck. But here's the problem, Huck actually expressed support for both of them...
When he came back to his senses, he realized that he seemed to have done something stupid, so he became distressed.
"Dear, lunch is ready." The voice of Huck's wife Anne came from the house.
"I know, wait until I finish smoking this pipe." Huck replied, and then took a strong puff on the pipe. At this time, there was a popping sound, which scared Huck and almost dropped the pipe to the ground.
Huck's first reaction was that someone was shooting! Someone was shooting at him! The moment he heard the explosion, Huck felt as if the flow of time had slowed down. Although he could not move his body, his mind turned around.
Thousands of thoughts.
I was so stupid, really, I only knew that I shouldn't go for a drive in a convertible, but I didn't know that smoking on the balcony was just as risky.
What should Anne do after I die?
I don’t know if those two guys, Humphrey and Bernard, will be sad for me... My funeral will definitely promote the implementation of countless policies. Only at funerals can bureaucrats work at their highest efficiency.
A few days ago, I was thinking that a high-ranking official should hold a funeral, but I didn’t expect that the protagonist of the funeral would be me...
If I hide behind the flowerpot, I should be able to dodge this bullet, right?
Wait, why am I not dead yet?
Huck came back to his senses and found that he was safe and sound, but there was a handsome young man in front of him. He stood quietly on the other side of the balcony and looked at him, like a marble statue. His eyes were extremely calm and profound.
It's like what he should have at his age. Looking into his eyes is like seeing a deep lake.
The wind blew a strand of hair hanging down from his forehead, and the boy said in a nice voice: "Good afternoon, Mr. Huck."
Huck tried hard to search for the image of this young man in his mind, but found that he did not know such a person at all.
"I'm Lockhart, or Tom Yoder. We met in the embassy area before."
When Tom said this, memories flooded into Huck's mind. He suddenly recalled the experience of that night.
"Won't you invite me to come in and sit down?"
"Oh, please come in." Huck woke up from a dream and quickly invited Tom into his home.
At this time, Annie came to the two of them with a plate of turkey sandwiches.
Tom:……

Behind the scenes: Tom didn't apparate to Huck's balcony all at once. In fact, he couldn't teleport that far at once. He first left Granger's house, then took a taxi to the vicinity of Huck's house, and finally teleported there.
