fall at hogwarts

Chapter 229
A long time ago, the wizarding world did not celebrate Christmas.After all, why would other wizards celebrate the birthday of someone who didn't know whether he was a wizard or a Muggle?

However, because Hogwarts has many Muggle-born students, they have been asking the school to go home for Christmas a long time ago.Through the hard work of generations of students, this short holiday was won for future generations.

When the students of Hogwarts gradually grew up and gradually replaced the old wizards in the wizarding world, Christmas began to become popular in the wizarding world.

On the Hogwarts Express, Nan Wan flew to the dining table, and Ed took Elizabeth's luggage pushed by the conductor, and put it on the luggage rack with a little difficulty.

This year's suitcase is almost twice as heavy as last year's. According to this multiple, Ed is thinking about whether he should bring Bant with him next year.

If he was carrying luggage for a girl, he would have to cast a powerful spell on himself.How is that different from going to a hotel with your girlfriend and then treating her like a guest?
It's better to bring a coolie and command it to work leisurely, so that you can show yourself a gentleman without risking making a fool of yourself.

"Ah~"

Elizabeth jumped on the soft seat, leaned hard on the back of the chair, closed her eyes and breathed lightly, as if she could smell the air in the manor this way.

Ed flicked Elizabeth's forehead, she pouted, and looked at Ed with watery peach blossom eyes aggrieved.

"Don't put your feet on my side, your shoes will fall off."

Elizabeth's back heels sneaked out of the beige lady's shoes because she was lying flat and her slender legs were stretched out and her toes were hooked up.

After a boy saw her ankle and let him speak out, the blush surged up like a tide, filling Elizabeth's neck and face.

Feeling her face getting hot, Elizabeth lowered her head, not daring to look at Ed.

"What's wrong? Are you shy?"

Elizabeth heard Ed's words, glanced at Ed, and continued to lower her head, looking at the feet that were about to get together.

Ed smiled at the corner of his mouth. In fact, Elizabeth is a very shy person, unlike Hermione. If he teased Hermione like this and became angry from embarrassment, he would have punched her a long time ago.

After that, Ed didn't bother Elizabeth, who was shy, and stood up to see if there were new brands of candy or other snacks in the conductor's trolley.

"Cut, scumbag!" Nan Wan came out to show her presence again.

With the sound of "woo" from the front of the train, the train began to rub against the rails, making a regular "papa"... Bah, it was a "boom".

By the time Elizabeth raised her head again, the scenery outside the window had already begun to change.

There are three glasses of juice-like drinks on the table, two of which have straws inserted in them, and the other one does not.

"The story of the crow drinking water is false, the crow can't drink the water in the bottle at all." Ed was holding a straw in his hand, and he and Nan Wan were debating the story of the crow drinking water.

Nan Wan retorted: "You are talking nonsense! The story of the crow drinking water is well known in China, how can it be false?"

The story of the crow drinking water comes from the ancient Greek prophecy story "Aesop's Fables", which teaches people the principle of persistence to succeed.

Elizabeth has also heard of it, how can this story be false?

"Come, come, come, we can use your cup for experiments, and I have prepared all the stones for you."

Elizabeth saw Ed grab a handful of candies from her pocket, and then felt that it was not enough, so she took out a handful of golden beans and threw them on the table.

However, Nan Wan stood motionless on the table, just staring at Ed.

"Don't! That's what crows do, I won't be fooled by you!" As one of the proud five phoenixes, Nan Wan didn't give Ed any chance to humiliate herself.

Nan Wan turned her head away from looking at Ed, and then saw that Elizabeth had woken up and looked at herself.

"What are you looking at? If you don't believe me, you can try it!"

Elizabeth, who can often see Nan Wan, naturally knows that Nan Wan, like her mother, is actually a proud swan.

She raised her eyebrows to look at Ed, then grabbed the candy on the table and threw it into the half glass of juice.

Then...the water level in the glass barely rose, and Elizabeth grabbed another handful and threw it in. The candy piled up above the water level, and there was no way to drink the juice without moving the glass.

"Wow! This..."

This scene shocked Elizabeth a little. After all, in the story, the crow was able to drink water.

Ed glanced at Nanwan, didn't deliberately tease it, and said slowly: "Reasonable common sense, sometimes put together, is unreasonable.

And some things that seem unreasonable, put together, are extremely reasonable things. "

"Uh-huh!"

Ed successfully showed off a wave, and the trust level in Elizabeth's heart was instantly raised. No matter what Ed said at this time, Elizabeth Decathlon would believe it.

However, Nan Wan is not. She pushed the obtrusive cup aside, folded her wings and said, "For example? Give me a chestnut?"

"Eh..." Ed was a little embarrassed.

Nan Wan secretly rejoiced, and urged: "Say it quickly."

Elizabeth on the side also pricked up her ears, ready to listen carefully.

"Eh...let's just say goodbye."

"Say it!"

At this time, the conductor came over, and the trolley was full of Santa Claus dolls.

"Yes! Santa Claus knows, in fact, Santa Claus is a wizard. Why does Santa Claus enter the house through the chimney in the story?"

Ed looked at Elizabeth.

Elizabeth frowned and shook her head. Although it was not surprising that Santa Claus was a wizard, she couldn't figure it out.

Nan Wan didn't know either, because it was not a phoenix from the west, but from the east, and Ed's family never had that alchemy item.

"Because in the wizarding world there is a kind of magical magic powder - Floo powder. It can go into other people's chimneys in the blink of an eye, so Santa Claus uses Floo powder to enter your house and distribute gifts to the whole world."

Hearing Ed's words, Nan Wan suddenly realized, have you never eaten pork or heard the name of a pig?Elizabeth, on the other hand, continued to wonder.

Ed went on to ask the next question: "How many people will secretly hide at night to see what gifts Santa Claus sends, but why don't everyone have an impression of him?"

Nan Wan and Elizabeth shook their heads together.

"Because of the curse of forgetting everything~"

Ed told them that they could fly and pull sleighs and that Rudolph, the only reindeer in the world with a big red nose, might be the patron saint of Santa Claus.

And who is the helper who helps Santa Claus?A house elf, of course.

"Forget it, let me ask you a simple question. Why can Santa's red package hold so many things?"

It seems impossible for Santa Claus to deliver Christmas gifts to the whole world in one night, and across continents.But what about holding a tiny shiny gold timepiece with a long, delicate gold chain in your hand?
