Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

From Hermione's point of view, Aiwen is so outstanding, very talented in magic, and is always the focus of people's discussion. Many girls in the school also like him.

For example, Ravenclaw's Qiu Zhang, she is much more beautiful than herself.

Hermione was a little frustrated. She was just a nerd who only knew how to read books. She was average in appearance, loved to dig into corners, and had a bad temper.

Compared with Qiu, boys should all like girls like her.

Every time Qiu walked around them, the three of them, Ivan, Harry, and Ron, would look up at her.

Therefore, Hermione has always dared to be sure whether Ivan really likes herself.

After that, though, they went through a chain of events together.

Whether it was the terrifying werewolf attack, or the accusation of Professor Lupine by Ron, the conspiracy of Peter Pettigrew, the rescue of Sirius, the search for Regulus in the cave full of dangers, etc., these days have happened one after another. Things made Hermione feel like they had passed through centuries.

Many times, they have brushed shoulders with death.

While maintaining a high level of mental tension, the relationship between Hermione and Ivan is getting closer.

No matter when, Aiwen protects himself regardless of his life.

While Hermione was moved, her trust in Aiwen deep in her heart, as well as that trace of inexplicable other emotions became stronger and stronger.

Now she suddenly felt a little regretful, why didn't she take the opportunity to reveal her relationship at Madam Puddife's teahouse last time, maybe she should be more proactive...

It is indeed a pity to miss that opportunity, and one thing is certain, that is, she will never have the courage to go to that kind of place with Ivan again.

But I still have a chance, the Christmas party tonight.

They were in Diagon Alley, which was full of festive atmosphere. The atmosphere here was even better than that of Hogsmeade, and there would never be monsters like werewolves and ghosts to disturb them.

Hermione is looking forward to it more and more, tonight is the real date between him and Ivan.

She secretly glanced at Ivan, and if there was an opportunity like last time at Mrs. Puddiffe's teahouse, she must seize it.

In the small narrow courtyard behind the Leaky Cauldron, the atmosphere became a bit strange.

I don't know when it started, Ivan and Hermione suddenly became quiet, and they were talking about Regulus, and neither of them spoke.

Alvin scratched his head in embarrassment, his heart pounding.

With the light of the tiny milk in the bar, he saw that Hermione's face showed an attractive pink color, like a ripe apple, which made people couldn't help but go up and take a bite.

He subconsciously took half a step forward, getting closer and closer to Hermione.

The palms were covered with sweat, and the strange atmosphere became more and more intense.

Aiwen's eyes accidentally met Hermione's, and he found that there was a hint of fanaticism hidden in the girl's agile eyes, which looked particularly attractive.

He and Hermione exchanged glances, and the two moved away hastily.

Can't explain why, Ivan only feels that Hermione is very beautiful tonight.

Just when he mustered up his courage and was about to say something, the stone wall in front of him suddenly started to move, startling them.

Alvin and Hermione turned their heads in a hurry, and in front of them, a small hole appeared in the middle of the stone wall leading to Diagon Alley. A wide archway leads to a winding cobbled street with no end in sight.

"Merry Christmas, children!" A group of wizards in festive red and green costumes came out from inside and greeted Ivan and Hermione happily.

They hurried past the two of them on their way to Diagon Alley for a drink.

Ivan and Hermione looked at each other, slightly embarrassed, Ivan's movements were extremely clumsy, he didn't know what to do, and he didn't know where to put his hands.

Seeing his tense appearance, Hermione suddenly laughed, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and her smiling eyes were bent into a beautiful crescent shape.

She gritted her teeth, took the initiative to hold Ivan's right hand, and stepped forward into Diagon Alley.

Diagon Alley has a special charm tonight, almost all the shops are brightly lit.

The streets are filled with cheerful Christmas carols, and are lined with rows of Christmas trees, filled with all kinds of decorations and Christmas gifts, some with tiny shiny icicles, and others with hundreds of twinkling icicles Candle.Passing through the Christmas tree, you can see that the brick wall behind has also been magically cast, and it is covered with hanging ribbons of holly and mistletoe in changing colors.

There are also those grotesque mascots, each of which looks extraordinarily peculiar, some are dressed up by wizards, and some are transformed by transfiguration.

The sweet smell of food fills the streets, and the whole street is full of carnival people. Everyone dances and celebrates the arrival of Christmas.

"Look there, Alvin!" Hermione said happily, with a sweet smile on her face, and she looked very happy.

Following the direction of her finger, Aiwen saw a 20-inch paper dragon wearing a red Santa hat flying over the crowd in the small square in front of Gringotts. There was a goblin on the dragon, He kept throwing Christmas presents into the crowd below.

Those gifts were golden Galleons, and many wizards were grabbing these gold coins below, bursting into loud laughter from time to time.

Aiwen knew that those gold coins must be fake, otherwise he wouldn't do such a thing with the goblin's stinginess and greed.

Instead of joining the carnival crowd, they wandered aimlessly in the lively streets, chatting happily.

Every store has a celebration, and there are free Christmas gifts.

The sound of magic fireworks sounded above their heads from time to time, instead of a muffled bang like ordinary firecrackers, it made a bang like a cannon bombing, engulfing the crowd in smoke of various colors.

Inside the firecrackers are various Easter egg gifts.

Ivan picked up an admiral's hat, and it was very funny to wear it on top of his head.

Hermione wanted a straw hat that looked particularly cute in pink, and they ran around Diagon Alley with other wizards.

Follow the direction where the firecrackers landed, and collect the gifts that fell on the ground everywhere.

At the entrance of the Bouncing and Playing Magic Joke Store, a gift bag firecracker exploded with a bang, and a burst of green smoke drifted by. Ivan saw the pink hat fall into the alley not far away, and he hurriedly pulled He Min ran over.

In front of them was a remote and quiet alley with no one in it.Just like the outside, inside the alley there is a towering Christmas tree with mistletoe and a dozen candles that cast a faint, hazy light and look very romantic.

Chapter 220 The Instant Sweetness Under the Mistletoe

Mistletoe, as the name suggests, is a plant that parasitizes other plants.

It is evergreen all year round, representing hope and abundance.

There is a well-known saying in England, that is: no mistletoe, no happiness.

Even in the magic world, it is regarded as a traditional evil spirit, with strong magic power, and is often hung by wizards at the door to prevent bad luck or evil black magic from invading.In addition, there are many other uses.

For example, in divination, the green branches of mistletoe are used to predict dreams.

And the white or red berry juice it produces in winter is one of the essential raw materials for making Felicia, which can bring good luck to the user.

In Muggle traditional history and culture, mistletoe is also known as the "golden branch of life".

It is said that on Christmas Day, as long as a girl passes or stands where the mistletoe hangs, the man next to her can come up and kiss her.

Looking at the dimly glowing Christmas tree in front of her and the mistletoe hanging on it, for some reason, Hermione suddenly remembered this ancient custom.

She stared at Ai Wen in a daze, her eyes were both expectant and a little scared.

She seemed to hope that Aiwen would do something to her, but if Aiwen really came, she didn't know what to do.

"Look for it, Hermione, I saw that hat fell here..." Ivan panted, not noticing Hermione's strange reaction.

Holding up his wand, he whispered a sentence of fluorescent lights, and began to search in the dark alley, but there was nothing on the ground.Ivan thought for a while, when the hat fell, it might hang on the huge Christmas tree in front of him.

He raised his head and looked carefully at the branches of the Christmas tree from top to bottom.

"Ivan!" Hermione yelled softly, her heart beating violently.

She remembered the resolution she had just made at the patio, that she must take the initiative to attack tonight and seize the opportunity. There was an excellent opportunity in front of her.

"Have you found that hat?" Hearing Hermione's call, Ai Wen hurriedly lowered his head, and the words on his lips stopped suddenly.

Hermione was very close to him, and Ivan's eyes met Hermione's.

In the instant the eyes of the two people exchanged, he even stopped breathing.

At that moment, he was completely conquered by Hermione's beauty.

A strong strange emotion rose deep in Ivan's heart, maybe this is the feeling of being in love.He made up his mind that the girl in front of him was the one he liked, and he was willing to give everything to protect her, even including his life.

Hermione's face was reddish, and she looked back at Ivan with burning eyes.

"Forget about that hat, you know that custom?"

"What custom?" Ivan tried to concentrate.

"It's, it's the one about the mistletoe, you know, on Christmas Day, as long as there are girls standing under the mistletoe, then it's okay..." Hermione couldn't continue, her face turned red to the extreme, she lightly Biting her lips, her face was full of embarrassment.

She felt hot all over her body, very hot.

She couldn't believe it, what did she just say? !

Looking at it this way, it seems that she is actively asking Ivan to do that kind of thing to herself.

The candles on the Christmas tree glow dimly, and the atmosphere becomes charming.

Following Hermione's gaze, Ivan saw the large piece of mistletoe above their heads, and he instantly thought of the custom Hermione said: On Christmas Day, as long as boys and girls stand under the mistletoe at the same time, the boy will You can kiss each other, girls have no right to refuse.

The custom that Hermione just mentioned, does she hope that she...

Alvin began to think wildly. Under the dim candlelight on the Christmas tree, he felt that Hermione was very beautiful, much more beautiful than usual.

Deep in his heart, a sudden urge to kiss Hermione rose.

An invisible aura attracted Ivan, he took a deep breath, and involuntarily took a step forward, trying to hold Hermione's little hand.

An electric shock-like touch came from between her fingers, and Hermione trembled, but she didn't resist.

Alvin felt her breath, the sweet fragrance unique to girls.

His brain stopped functioning, and all his complicated thoughts turned into a blank.

He swallowed, leaning forward.

The short distance between the two was like an insurmountable gully, he felt so nervous that he even stopped breathing.

Ivan wrapped his right hand from bottom to top, hugging Hermione tightly.

In his arms, Hermione dodged back as much as possible, looking a little scared, and then seemed to remember something, stopped suddenly, and closed her eyes tightly.

The long eyelashes on the pupils trembled in the winter night wind, and cheerful Christmas tunes came slowly not far away, faintly visible, and Hermione's heart also trembled.

Her body was tense, expectant and nervous.

The distance between the two of them was getting closer and closer. Looking at Hermione in his arms, Ivan shook his heart and made up his mind. He also closed his eyes and touched Hermione lightly with his lips.

The girl's body trembled again, and she pushed Ivan hard in panic.

Ivan didn't flinch this time, he felt that he had kissed Hermione, a sweet, cold feeling, very soft, as if eating candy.

Clear and cool! ! !

Soon, he was immersed in this intoxicating feeling.

Hermione pushed Ivan, but she didn't push, and she also felt a strange feeling from her lips. She closed her eyes tightly, not daring to open them at all, feeling the coolness from her mouth with her heart, and It belongs to Alvin's taste.

The two of them maintained this movement, not even moving.

Only one second passed, but to the two of them, it seemed like a century had passed.

If in other people's eyes, their actions are not so much kissing, a more accurate description is more like a light touch between the lips.

But for Ivan and Hermione, this is already an extremely difficult challenge.

Ivan could feel Hermione's tension, she clenched her teeth tightly and did not let go.

He knew that at this moment, the boy must take the initiative, and Ivan was ready to move further, but at this moment, Hermione pushed him away suddenly.

She was short of breath, avoiding Ivan's eyes, lowered her head, her little face was slightly red...

"No, no, Ivan, we can't do this..." Hermione panted, her eyes moved to other places involuntarily, and she said in a panic, "I just saw that hat fell into it, I, I Go find it."

After she finished speaking, she turned her head and ran deep into the alley.

Ivan froze for a moment, Hermione must be extremely nervous now, and so was he. He didn't know whether he should chase Hermione, and he didn't know what to say if he caught up.

He started to think wildly again, since it has already started, it should be finished in a generous way.

This kind of behavior of giving up halfway, no matter how to describe it, it is really, really embarrassing!

Chapter 221 Strange Girl

Kissing or something, really can't be hasty.

The normal procedure should be to propose a relationship first, and then do this kind of thing.

Under the Christmas tree, Ivan's face was red and hot. He looked up at the dark night sky and took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.

Now that it has become an established fact and everyone has kissed each other, he should take the corresponding responsibility, and there is no point in continuing to entangle.
