Chapter 100 The Banquet of the Dead

After Nick knelt down, the atmosphere in the Room of Requirement seemed strange, and Hermione covered her mouth with her hand in surprise.

Ryan felt chills stand on end at this moment. After all, according to Eastern sayings, asking someone older than you to kneel down will shorten your lifespan. How much lifespan should someone like Nick, who is 500 years older, lose?

Not to mention that this is a rotten country, Nick's action is too much like courtship, and Hermione may have already thought wrong.

In order to save his image, Ryan quickly said to Nick: "Sir, if you need my help if you need anything, please just say it. Don't be like this. I can't bear such courtesy."

Nick also seemed to be excited just now, but now he woke up as soon as Ryan said it. He stood up and said: "I'm sorry, I scared you just now because of my excitement. But I really need your help with something very important."

."

After speaking, Nick pulled his ears and popped off his head. At this moment, Ryan heard Hermione's inhalation behind him, and he himself felt a little uncomfortable in his stomach.

At this time Nick said: "Look, I was hit 44 times with a blunt ax on my neck. I wanted it to be clean and clean than anyone else. But it is a pity that because there is only a little bit of skin attached, I am dying."

They will still be ostracized after they die. Do they suffer more than me when they lose their heads?"

Ryan saw Nick's face light up, probably feeling very angry.

"They didn't suffer as much as me, but they pushed me away because their heads were completely moved. So" at this point, Nick took a breath to calm down and said, "Ryan, I just saw that your gun caused wounds on our ghosts."

Ability, so I would like to ask you to help me cut off the remaining skin."

Ryan felt a little confused after hearing Nick's request. After all, cutting off a person's neck, even a ghost's neck, was a bit too exciting for him.

So he said to Nick: "You must know that in the East, the complete separation of the head and the body is a very unlucky symbol. In ancient times, even if beheading, the executioner would try to leave a little bit of skin. So you should think about it again."

"I have been thinking about it for almost 500 years." Nick said in a suppressed voice. "You don't have to worry about those things. After all, this is the UK and the situation is different in different places. Just do a small favor to help a friend."

"This." Ryan looked back at Hermione in panic, hoping to get a suggestion from her. Hermione was also frightened by this strange request. She wrung her hands together in front of her chest and stared down at her shoes, not knowing what to say.

What.

After a long silence, Hermione finally raised her head and said: "I think the adjective "almost headless" is really bad for a ghost, and Nick has endured this kind of humiliation for almost five hundred years. Ryan, if you can help

If he gets it, try to help him as much as possible. After all, he is our Gryffindor ghost."

Well, it seems that Hermione put forward a relatively strong reason. After listening to it, Ryan thought about it and finally made up his mind. He raised his head and looked at Nick who was staring at him with uneasy eyes and said:

"Okay, I can help you. But you can't tell anyone about this."

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone. I swear it in the name of Lord Porpington."

Ryan nodded and asked Nick to hold his head in his hands and lift it up. Then he took a deep breath and muttered that he was a dead man. Then he raised the calamus sword and swung it hard at the connection between flesh and skin.

The skin and flesh were broken instantly, and Nick threw his head to the ceiling because he used too much force with his hands.

Perhaps because Nick had just become completely headless, Sir Nick looked a little clumsy when operating his body. It took him a lot of time to adjust and successfully put his head on his neck.

But Ryan could tell that Nick was in a very good mood now, and the brightness of his entire spirit body was much brighter than before.

After dancing in the air for a long time, Nick finally thought of Ryan. He floated in front of Ryan and said excitedly: "Thank you for helping me fulfill my wish for hundreds of years. I will remember your kindness. You will always be mine."

friends."

When Ryan finished his work for the day and Hermione prepared the Room of Requirement, Nick asked Ryan to help him keep this secret temporarily because he wanted to make a splash at his party.

On the way to leave the Room of Requirement and go to the library, Hermione asked Ryan curiously: "Are ghosts very different from us in many ways? At least I don't think normal humans would make such strange requests."

"The book I read states that most ghosts are the same as they were in life, but it does not rule out that some ghosts have their own obsessions after death. Obviously Nick's obsession is its neck, so he would come up with such a strange idea.

request." Ryan replied with a shrug.

The days passed quickly, and Halloween came. The auditorium was decorated with bats and carved jack-o-lanterns. Everyone was rumored that Dumbledore had invited the Skeleton Cabaret to perform.

"Ha, I really don't understand why you want to go to that cold and humid place. You must know that the food at the Halloween banquet is much richer than usual." In front of the auditorium door, Ryan and Hermione were preparing to go to the underground classroom. Standing beside Harry

Ron next to them said to them both.

"You only know how to eat, you don't understand the beauty of gaining knowledge." Hermione replied, and then pulled Ryan towards the underground classroom.

On the way, Ryan took out the pre-drawn talisman and handed it to Hermione: "It's not good for the living and the undead to be together for a long time. If you take this with you, you won't be affected."

"Is this the magic script of the Celestial Empire? It looks completely different from our ancient magic script." Hermione said as she stuffed the talisman into her pocket.

There were small black candles lit in the corridor, which glowed with blue light. Ryan felt that the atmosphere created by Nick here was closer to the feeling of Halloween than in the auditorium.

With every step they took to the underground classroom, they could feel the temperature getting a little cooler. Fortunately, the talisman was also activated at this time, blocking the cold atmosphere from the body.

The corridor echoed with the sound of fingernails scratching the blackboard, maybe this was the music of the dead.

When they arrived at the classroom door, they saw Nick dressed up and standing at the door to greet the guests.

"Welcome, my dearest friend." Nick took off his hat and bowed. "Come in quickly. Thank you for your help. I think today's banquet will be the largest banquet in Britain in the past three hundred years."

The temperature in the basement is even lower, and Ryan and Hermione can breathe out even when they open their mouths. On the temporary dance floor in the open space of the classroom, hundreds of ghosts are crowded together and dancing waltz. On the stage, there are a group of ghosts.

Making noise with a musical saw. The blue light from a thousand candles in the chandelier on the ceiling illuminated everything clearly.

"This is more like a real Halloween in the wizarding world than a banquet in the auditorium." Ryan heard Hermione say excitedly next to her,
