Chapter five hundred and thirty second unknown sign
Hogwarts, Gryffindor girls' dormitory.
After not seeing each other for a holiday, the girls seemed quite excited when they got together again.
After placing their luggage and clothes a little bit, and placing their small ornaments, small alarm clocks, and small dolls next to the bed, Hermione, Hannah and others sat on Elena's bed, eating snacks and chatting.
As for the Gryffindor common room downstairs, not to mention that there are so many senior students, and it is the time when people have just returned from school, it is already extremely crowded, and it is not a suitable place for chatting.
Good place.
After skillfully kicking off her shoes and climbing onto Elena's big bed, Hannah glanced at the unopened box of handmade chocolates on the bedside, her cheeks bulged up quickly, she crossed her arms slightly displeased, and started to work
Question the way of guilt.
"Wow! Elena, you haven't even eaten one bite of the chocolate I made by myself!"
"Well, I've been a little busy these days..."
Elena stuck out her tongue, quickly took the box of chocolates from the bedside, opened the box with a flattering look, and stuffed one in the mouths of Hannah, Hermione, Luna and herself, while chewing
While explaining.
"...and I don't want to wait until everyone comes back from vacation to share it together."
"Humph, it's all quibbles!"
"So, it seems like you didn't even open the book I gave you and read it?"
Before Elena could comfort Hannah, Hermione glanced thoughtfully at the neatly unopened copies of Gilderoy's Gilderoy stuffed under the pile of gifts.
Lockhart series", he said softly.
Elena blinked, showing a playful smile, her eyes twinkling.
"Well, well...how should I put it, Mr. Lockhart..."
"Sister Elena, have you received all the photos I gave you?"
"Photos, uh-huh, of course... I'll think about where to put them..."
"As expected! I knew it, Elena, you forgot about us as soon as you had a holiday?!"
"It's just that, for so many days, except for Christmas gifts, I haven't received a letter, and there has been no reply to the letter I wrote to you. I almost thought that the owl that sent the letter was captured by some monster."
"Acridine...I was wrong, I was wrong, don't tickle me! I'm going to fight back!"
"Let's all come together. There is no need to talk about fairness and justice in dealing with this white-haired dumpling!"
"Hermione?! Were you filming me on purpose just now? You traitor!"
Facing the torture from the three little wings, Elena covered the shivering little fur on top of her head while playing and playing with the three little wings. She couldn't help but feel a trace of happiness in her heart - luckily there was Old Carrot.
He and Lao Dodou helped give her a gift, otherwise she might be out of luck tonight.
Of course, as one of the culprits, a certain well-known writer was silently noted in Elena's mind.
"The dead and missing people are always the hardest to defeat... It seems that if you want to reverse Hermione's incorrect star-chasing values, the step of becoming disillusioned with the real idol must be arranged."
In short, Hogwarts became lively again after the Christmas holiday.
For Elena, with the company of Hermione, Luna, Hannah and others, this castle can be regarded as a paradise without any competition from the world. The waves of the outside world are amidst the noise of the girls.
, disappear without trace.
All the arrangements and chess pieces in the distance were in place, and everything was developing in the direction she expected.
Many outcomes are often determined before the event begins.
…
As Gilderoy Lockhart, one of the most outstanding liars in the history of the wizarding world, joined the reception of the "Ulyanovsk", the last shortcoming in secrecy and adaptability was revealed
It has finally been added.
Over the years, he has been able to become a celebrity step by step without ever falling over. Lockhart's talent as a field agent is quite worthy of recognition - Elena needs more than just a loyal and strong old man.
Saints, she needs a liar like Lockhart who is well versed in human relations.
From now on, the Nikolayev Shipyard will enter a half-year-long silent period. Potato supply depots located throughout the former Soviet Union are still "recruiting" "salespeople" with doctorates or above.
Big movement.
Professor Dumbledore has been in contact with Newt Scamander these days, working hard to authorize space for portable large-scale farms, and to perfect preparations for large-scale magical cultivation.
But at present, it seems that there is still quite a long way to go before the final result is achieved.
At least in the current discussion, most of the free land folded in portable large-scale farms can only be found from the former Soviet Union. However, the situation in the Russian magic world at this time is particularly chaotic - according to feedback from the International Magic Association, they can't even basic
The magical government framework is about to collapse, so it may directly bypass the local Ministry of Magic, and the International Magical Association will temporarily take over the secrecy and magical maintenance of that area.
In addition, with the cooperation of Elena and Dumbledore, Hogwarts seems to be extremely peaceful, and the school mortgage crisis that occurred in the past few months seems to have subsided - the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore
The double statement is still extremely useful. Even if there are some discordant voices, they will not come out for the time being, but will watch silently in the dark.
As for the Ministry of Magic, which originally planned to sign a strategic binding agreement with the Gringotts Goblins, it temporarily shelved the previous issue due to the unexpected disintegration of the Soviet Union. Cornelius Fudge is not stupid. As a mediocre magician,
The minister, his biggest shortcoming and also his greatest strength is that he will never make decisions that affect stability.
Looking at the entire wizarding world, what wizards talk about the most on a daily basis is the interesting and novel "The New Quibbler" and "A Bite of Hogwarts" which was just split from this publication into an independent publication.
As for the recent drastic changes in the distant Muggle country, it is not even qualified to become the main topic of conversation among wizards. At best, it is just a few words of lamentation about the stupid Muggles, and the impact of this on Gringotts Wizarding Bank's exchange of foreign exchange and various currencies.
The processes and restrictions are becoming more and more complicated.
Time is the most powerful magic of forgetfulness.
More than three months have been enough for most people to forget about the huge loan that mysteriously disappeared after Hogwarts was mortgaged. The Auror Office gradually began to give up on pursuing this incident and began to focus on those trivial matters again.
When it comes to small things, some things that have been written down for a long time finally begin to show their fangs to the world.
In mid-January 1992, people of Orthodox faith had just begun their Christmas vacation, while other regions in Europe had just come out of the happy atmosphere of Christmas and were ready to welcome the new year in a relaxed mood.
In the past few months, although many major and far-reaching events have occurred in both the magical and non-magical worlds, in everyone's hearts everything is actually moving towards a better future.
Until one day, without any warning, the whole situation suddenly became weird.
If we put it thousands of years ago, it would be like the sun rising from the horizon one day as usual, rising to the top of noon along its established trajectory, when everyone was bathed in the sun...
The sky suddenly darkened without warning.
The dazzling fireball disappeared little by little, and the boundless darkness swallowed the entire world. All people and animals living in this world fell into a state of confusion. No living thing knew what happened and the reasons behind it.
Only when many, many years later, as human sight gradually extends to the sky, a few smart people will gradually come to understand the fact after various signs and observations - that person who seemed to suddenly appear in the sky, swallowing up all the warmth and light
The mysterious black shadow is actually the moonlight that guides people to move forward in the darkness every night...
