Hermione also changed her outfit today, which was very different from usual.
The theme of Hogwarts tonight is Ghost Pirates. Even with the spooky elements, the theme still doesn't quite match Halloween. Unlike Hogwarts, the outfit Hermione is wearing is very Halloween.
Hermione wore a violet gothic style dress with black panels, like raven wings, hanging down at the base of her thighs and edged by two gold six-pointed stars. She tied a light purple collar at the neckline. There is a bow, and there is a black cross under the bow - in the atmosphere of Halloween, the cross does not have the holy feeling of the past at all, but gives people a sense of decadence.
If you look closely, you can easily see that this bow is hung on a leather collar. This detail alone is enough to instantly kill an innocent little boy like Tom.
Under the leather collar, there are two black ropes passing through. These two ropes around the neck are connected to the grid-shaped black silk top through two gold star buttons, which play a fixed role.
Hermione's top is a velvet tights she carefully selected. The tights are flat and close to the skin, faithfully outlining her beautiful figure. While the front is tightly covered, there is a cutoff on the back. The large deep V at the waist exposes the smooth and white back skin to the air.
Under the dress, where no one could see her, Hermione chose a pair of V-shaped bottoms made of the same material as her top - tonight, she was the carefully prepared hunter.
The dress was sleeveless, but it was impossible for Hermione to have two bare white arms. For this purpose, she chose two asymmetrical black silk sleeves with delicate rose lace on the top, and a blue and black color-blocked half palm on her left hand. Gloves, the right sleeve ends abruptly at the back of the hand, exposing the white and tender hands and black nails. There is also an irregularly cut blue sleeve hem on the right sleeve, making the asymmetrical feeling even stronger. It brings the beauty of asymmetry to the extreme.
Tom's eyes fell on Hermione's slender legs. She seemed to want to carry out the asymmetry to the end today. Even the socks on her legs were asymmetrical! The right leg was black stockings that went deep into the skirt, and the left leg was They were black lace stockings, fastened by two suspender buckles, and the ends of the socks were tied with the white rose leg rings that Tom gave her. This was the only white decoration on her clothes today.
Not only did she put a lot of effort into her clothes, she also took care of Hermione's hair. The originally messy brown hair became smooth and shiny, and was combed into two small twin tails on the back of her head, consisting of stars and bats. The headbands of the pattern are tied together. The remaining long hair is spread down to the back.
Tom also noticed that Hermione was wearing a black eyepatch over her left eye, giving off a chubby vibe.
"It is my pleasure to meet you here, my beautiful lady." After the song ended, Tom walked off the stage and came to Hermione. He took off the captain's hat on his head and gave her a hat-off salute.
Hermione's face blushed slightly and she said with some trepidation: "Obviously, I have become your prisoner, my Mr. Pirate."
Tom raised his eyebrows. Is this role-playing? It's interesting!
So he asked with a straight face: "Very good, then what do you know? I don't have idle people on my ship - if you don't know anything, I will sell you!"
Having said this, Tom glanced at Hermione without any trace and swallowed a mouthful of saliva - if someone really auctioned the girl in front of him, he would be willing to buy her with enough gold to fill the Hogwarts Great Hall!
"I can mix drinks, Captain... do you want to try it?" Hermione turned her hand, and a wine bottle appeared in her hand.
Since the young wizards at Hogwarts are generally underage, alcoholic beverages rarely appear in the young wizard's field of vision. The same goes for the wine barrels in the auditorium today. Although they exude the aroma of wine, they are all magical special effects.
.
Dumbledore was worried about the healthy growth of the little wizards.
But the one in Hermione's hands was obviously a real one, one that could be sentenced to solitary confinement if caught by Filch.
"This is contraband." Tom narrowed his eyes. He didn't expect Hermione to take the initiative to violate school rules.
"So you want to report me?" Hermione gave a somewhat awkward wink, "Or do you want to punish me severely?"
Tom moved his eyes: "First, let's mix the drinks -"
Hermione tilted her head and laughed.
"No problem~"
She took out a lime from a fruit bowl beside the long table, then cut it in half, and cut half of it into small pieces with a knife.
"Today I'm mixing a very classic Mojito cocktail for you. The most original Cuban Mojito cocktail uses spearmint or mint and lemon, which are common on the island of Cuba, as the left ingredients. The refreshing and bright taste of lime and mint
The fire of the rum complements each other very well." As Hermione prepared, she introduced the mojito cocktail she was going to make to Tom.
Hermione took a glass, put chopped lime in it, and lightly pounded it with a pestle from the Potions class. Then, she got a few mints from nowhere.
Gently apply it on the rim of the cup to add a mint fragrance to the rim of the cup.
The used mint was not wasted, Hermione also stuffed it into the cup, along with a small cup of sugar cane syrup.
"Mojito is a pirate's drink, a romantic and passionate drink." Hermione opened the bottle and poured some golden rum into it.
When the wine is mixed with syrup and lime juice, the color becomes darker and the texture becomes thicker.
Hermione took out her wand and touched the remaining half of a lime. The fresh and juicy lemon deflated, and a ball of lemon juice was drawn out and became part of the cocktail.
"Unfortunately, it's not summer now." Hermione was a little regretful. Mojito is the most suitable wine for summer and can give people a tropical beach feeling.
But now it's almost winter...
Hermione lamented that the timing was wrong as she added crushed ice and soda water to the glass.
At this time, the drink was almost complete. With a tap of Hermione's wand, the various components of the cocktail were mixed together to form a unique flavor.
During the stirring process, the gas in the soda water is excited, making the inside of the wine filled with small bubbles.
When the crushed ice melts, the wine is ready.
Hermione filled the rim of the glass with crushed ice and added a sprig of whipped mint as a garnish.
Finally, she inserted two straws into it.
"Hemingway and Marilyn Monroe both like this kind of wine. You should try it too." Hermione pushed the prepared cocktail in front of Tom and looked at him expectantly.
