Hogwarts Wizard of the Deep

Chapter 43 Gifts
Early in the morning, Linde woke up.The first thing he did when he got back to Knott on Christmas Eve last night was to visit Mrs. Evelyn in the cemetery, where he stayed until very late.

Although he slept late, Linde got up in the morning.He used his feet to pull away the gift beside him, it was a gift from someone he knew in the magic world, although he didn't know who would give him a gift.

Due to the Chinese habits of his previous life, he is not the kind of person who unwraps presents in a hurry.

Although the house was very old, it still had basic heating, so Linde went downstairs in his thin pajamas.

Open the door, cold air rushed in.Linde hurried out and closed the door again.

There is a breath of mist in the mouth, the snow in the garden is much less than that in Hogwarts, and the sound of the waves can be heard here.

Boom boom boom——

I saw Felix's car driving over from afar, and then parked under this building.Felix came down in his buckskin coat and patted him on the pine tree tied to the roof.

Because they were playing in London yesterday, he asked others to help him get a pine, and he went to get it today.

This foreign pine is about the height of Felix, and it is very suitable for indoors.

Linde hurried over, and Felix was not surprised that Linde got up so early.After the two chatted, Linde hurriedly urged him to move the tree, after all, he was too cold to be outside.

Felix didn't say "Can't you use your magic?" At first Linde was worried that he would ask such a question, but later learned that after he left, Felix studied the card several times. A brochure for the Wizarding Law of Secrecy obtained from the Leaky Cauldron.

Linde said he was helping, but in fact he just helped Felix out of a pile of Christmas tree decorations that Felix had put in the back of the car.

Felix was alone, so of course they spent Christmas in Lynd's house.

They had just installed the Christmas tree when there was a knock on the door, and they knew who it was. They heard the choir members visiting from house to house from a long distance away.

Then frequent people began to visit them.Compared with other Augustus family members, Linde and Felix, who were not adopted, are undoubtedly the direct descendants. In addition, Linde still lives in Mrs. Evelyn's former residence.

So at this time of year, basically many people would come here to visit the two of them, and many of them had already worked hard in other places and made a special trip back to Knott Town.

This also made the two of them have to stay in the room exclusively to wait for waves of guests.

But this is still good for Linde, at least most people will bring him Christmas gifts.

At this time, Linde could only open some gifts in person according to the custom here.

These things include game consoles, books, various interesting trinkets, etc...

After Linde thanked these brothers and sisters one by one, he put them aside.

In the evening, Felix and Linde went to the best restaurant in town for dinner.

It wasn't until he returned to the house at night that he looked at the gifts from the wizarding world.

Linde himself sent it to the three professors McGonagall, Flitwick, and Dumbledore this time, and the only students who spoke were Cedric, Jane, and a senior wizard.

He felt a little unnecessary for others.

Similarly, Cedric and Jane also sent gifts to him, and two senior wizards also sent gifts to themselves, one of them was a witch who liked children very much, especially Linde This one looks good.This person, Lin De, did not expect that the other party would send a gift, so he didn't send a gift at first, but just wrote a greeting card.

The other is the head of the club. Now Professor Flitwick's favorite student in Hogwarts, a boy who is obsessed with magic research, has published many papers in many professional journals, and the response has been good.He appreciated Linde's talent very much, and he also answered Linde's questions many times.This person, Linde, sent him a gift.

For the rest, no other wizard gave him gifts.

On the contrary, most of the people whose relationship with him is between average and good have sent greeting cards, which can be regarded as a kind gesture.For example, the Harry Potter trio and his roommates, as well as some other senior wizards from the Charms Club.

Professor Flitwick and Dumbledore also sent gifts, and there was an unsigned gift, and he didn't know who sent it after thinking about it.

He first opened two gifts from the Charms Club, one of which contained various snacks, and was given by the witch who liked children.

And then another, a gift box containing several books bundled together, some of which had lost their paper.

Linde opened it and found that it was all the notes of the magic class from the first to sixth grades of the seventh-grade magic lunatic, which was a big gift for him.This is not to be underestimated for his future development.

After putting these notes carefully, he opened the gift from Jane.

A small blue-ringed octopus pendant, not sure what it's made of, but probably some kind of mineral.There is nothing special about it either.It also comes with a greeting card that reads:
Do you dare to eat octopus!
Maybe she thought the octopus was a disgusting and terrifying creature, Linde thought.

However, he didn't have the habit of hanging things on his body, so he put it aside, although the pendant was quite pretty.

Cedric sent him a very new copy of "Practical Charms I". Linde also knows now that the series of books on practical magic have stopped printing and publishing. Such a new book is quite rare.

So Cedric gave this gift with special care. In addition to the "Practical Charms III" I got in the Room of Requirement, there are two books in this series.

Professor Flitwick sent himself a packet.On this, the professor himself cast a traceless stretching spell and a curing spell.The function of the curing spell is to stabilize a certain spell, which is a spell that is engraved on many magic items, including flying broomsticks, robes with self-cleaning ability, and so on.

Here it is used to stabilize the No Trace Stretching Curse for a long time, and he has not learned these two spells yet.

Linde took a look, and the space inside was about the size of three suitcases.It is really a must-have item for traveling at home, murdering people, and dumping corpses in the wilderness.

Afterwards, he opened the gift that Professor Dumbledore gave him. It should be a book from the outside, so he looked forward to it.

But when he opened it, it was not a book inside, but a flat rectangular box like a book, which indeed looked like a book in appearance.

There is also a note on it, which reads: There is a good thing inside.But you'll have to figure out how to open it yourself.

This old bee likes to play this kind of tune.

Linde cursed secretly.Then put that thing aside.Now it's time to open the presents. To study this box, he has to finish opening all the presents.

Then he reached for the unsigned box.

　Sorry
