Hogwarts in a parallel world

Chapter 98 Untitled Chapter

"Ginny, you're too slow" Ron yelled from the stands.

Because she had been flying at high speed, Ginny's hair was messy and she looked like a ball of fire from a distance.

Ginny shouted angrily: "Ron, there is no way I can fly over the Special Firebolt. This Silver Arrow is already very old."

After Harry made three sharp turns in a row, he stopped on the ground. His hair was as messy as a bird's nest.

Harry commented: "Ginny's flying is no worse than mine. She, like Aurora, is more flexible."

Ron chewed the chocolate frog again and again and said: "I'm sure Winters is not bad, but his wand is too weird."

Harry straightened his hair randomly and said, "Every gain must come with a loss, but the power of his wand is so powerful that the loss is far less than the gain."

Ginny shook her head at Ron and said: "Lavender Brown, it seems that you are a very busy man. You have to help Harry deal with those difficult reporters, and you also have to deal with your own fans."

Ron's face turned red and white in an instant: "She is not a fan of mine, but I am her fan. Haven't you seen her transformation technique?"

Ginny shrugged: "It's okay, it's relatively good."

Ron shouted in surprise: "What is considered outstanding, but few people can be like Winters."

Ginny laughed strangely: "You guess for yourself. Let's go, Harry. Let's continue practicing." After she said that, she patted Harry on the shoulder and got on the flying broomstick.

Ron worriedly shouted to Harry: "Look at my sister."

"Are you doubting my flying skills?"

Ron shouted as he backed away: "Whatever you think, don't let my sister get hurt anyway."

After Ron walked away, Ginny grinned: "That's just the way Ron is, he always thinks I'm a kid."

Harry felt strange: "He is your brother, does he have any problem caring about you?"

Ginny said depressedly: "I'm only one year younger than him, and my grades in third grade were much better than his."

Harry smiled and said: "If your magic level is at the same level as Winters, he shouldn't worry."

Ginny said jokingly: "Then he should worry about you."

Harry smiled and said: "Yes, there is no doubt that Winters' magic level is far superior to others."

As Harry and Ginny were flying around on the Quidditch pitch, Neville ran over, waving what appeared to be a letter in his hand.

"Harry! Harry! Letter from Winters - you...hello...Ginny" Neville was breathless.

"Hello, Neville, where's Marissa?" Ginny dived and landed on the ground, followed closely by Harry.

Ginny's question caught Neville off guard.

"She... she's angry... - Oh, Harry, here's your letter."

"Why, I saw you had quite a good time playing with her at the Christmas ball."

"She wanted to take me to Hogsmeade...but I wanted to review my homework and she ignored me."

Ginny opened her mouth, then coughed dryly and said: "Your herbal medicine is recognized as excellent, you will be fine."

"Ginny is right. I see that you have been reciting it every day today. I think you need to relax - Mr. Krall has recovered, Walter has recovered, and Merlin's beard..."

Harry shouted with joy after reading the letter.

"Are you invited to Elena's birthday party?"

"Yes, and the Kralls also want us to come - including you, Neville."

Neville seemed to wince.

"I didn't lie to you. If you don't believe it, just take a look."

Harry said and showed the letter to Neville. Neville seemed to become shorter after reading the letter.

"I...I'll tell Marissa...I want to go with her...anywhere." Neville seemed to know that he was going to duel with Winters, and the rules were that he had to win. Leave.

Ginny looked at Neville's retreating figure and said softly: "Why does it feel like Neville thinks he is going to fight some terrible monster?"

Harry sighed and said, "I don't know what made him like this."

Ginny asked absentmindedly: "When are you going to go find Winters and the others?"

Harry said depressedly: "Even if I want to go, I need permission from Professor McGonagall - I heard many people say that Voldemort is planning something, and he is coming for me."

Ginny was not afraid because Harry told the mysterious man's real name. She just said with some regret: "Then McGonagall may approve it, because Professor Dumbledore is not in Hogwarts now."

Harry looked at Ginny strangely: "You seem very unhappy... You can go too."

Ginny waved her hand and said, "I know - I'm just not used to grand displays."

Harry rejected Ginny's idea: "There is no such thing as a grand event. There is no other characteristic except rich food and a large number of people, and there is not even a band."

Ginny looked at Harry and said, "Okay, I'll go"

Harry felt that something was wrong with Ginny, that she seemed to be afraid of something.

Ginny immediately said: "I'm fine Harry, really... I'm just a little embarrassed when I'm suddenly faced with so many people."

Harry said happily: "Ha, I promise, you will like it"

Harry said and ran away, but his happy mood was soon ruined by Professor McGonagall.

Professor McGonagall was as serious as ever, "Sorry, Potter, I can't allow you to attend Elena's birthday party."

"But...Professor, Professor Dumbledore is also there." Harry's previous enthusiasm was almost gone.

"Professor Dumbledore will be back tomorrow afternoon. He almost regards Hogwarts as his home. I think you'd better use this time to relax, because your tasks will be very heavy after Christmas."

Harry said frustratedly, "But... Winters... how did he..."

Professor McGonagall nodded and said: "His task is easier than yours, because he has worked much harder than you in the past few years, and... and with all due respect, his talent is much higher than yours."

Harry said dejectedly: "I know, Professor."

Although Professor McGonagall still looked serious, she understood Harry's thoughts very well: "I am also very tired, everyone is tired.

You may think that Winters has it much easier than you, but this is the reward for the great efforts he has made in the past three years, and his life at Hogwarts can be said to be far less rich than yours.

Mr. and Mrs. Eisen told me that Winters plays like crazy when he is on vacation. He comes home dirty every day. If it is summer vacation, he will play like crazy for a month.

Harry felt a little better.

"So, do you have any more questions, Potter?"

"No more, Professor"

When Harry turned to leave, Professor McGonagall stopped him:

"Your transformation skills are improving very quickly. Your parents will be proud of this."

"Well... of course... I will continue to work hard." Harry never expected that Professor McGonagall would praise him.So much so that his cervical vertebrae made a sound when he turned his head.

When Harry came out of Professor McGonagall's office, he saw Ginny waiting for him.

Ginny looked at Harry and asked, "Are you approved?"

Harry shook his head slightly and said, "No... Professor Dumbledore will be back soon. Professor McGonagall said that my tasks are still very heavy. It's best to use this time to take a good rest."

Ginny comforted Harry and said, "After you get over the current difficulty, you will have the opportunity to attend Elena's birthday party."

Harry smiled bitterly and said: "This is the only way, ugh... If I had worked harder before, I wouldn't have been so tired."

Ginny laughed: "Oh, come on, no matter how hard you try, you will never reach Winters' level. We can only try our best to strive for a relatively good result. There are not so many days in the world. "Proud son"

Harry shook his head and forgot about attending Elena's birthday party, saying that instead of having trouble with himself, he might as well enjoy the peaceful life he had now.

"You're right, Ginny, it's... it's 3pm... want to play chess?"

"No, I want to go to Hogsmeade Village. You always tell me how great the Beehawk's Nest is, but you haven't taken me there yet."

"Oh...how could I forget?" Harry patted the back of his head.

They met Cho Chang and Cedric on their way to Hogsmeade.Not sure what Cedric said, Qiu Zhang smiled very happily.

Cedric jumped down from a stone platform: "Hey, Harry, where are you going?"

"Ginny and I are going to Hogsmeade"

"Let me guess, Beehawk's Nest?"

"Of course, who wouldn't want to go to this place?"

"Then I wish you a good time - well, I suggest you unwrap that golden egg quickly so that you can train accordingly." Cedric suddenly lowered his voice.

"But how to do it? I have tried many methods. As soon as I open the golden egg, I feel countless evil birds screaming in my ears."

"This golden egg is an alchemical item. You can ask Winters or Elena. I can only say this much - let's go, Qiu, do you want to see Godric's Hollow?"

"Well... why are you... I'm not doubting... I'm just..."

Cedric said seriously: "I can't watch innocent people in danger - at least I think you are innocent. As for Winters... According to my understanding of the rules of the Triwizard Tournament, for him It is said that the most dangerous stage has passed."

Looking at Cedric, Harry felt indescribably moved.

Harry coughed and said, "I hope you get the Goblet of Fire."

Cedric whispered: "You'd better figure out the secret of the golden egg before the Christmas holidays are over, otherwise Professor McGonagall will be angry."

"Of course I will"

Watching Cedric and Cho Chang walking away, Harry had an indescribable strange feeling, a very bitter feeling.

"Harry, what's wrong with you?" Ginny frowned and looked at Harry.

"Nothing...just a feeling...it feels inexplicable"

"Because Qiu Zhang? She is indeed the best seeker in Ravenclaw and has ever fought against you."

"Maybe, but...I can't tell."

Harry and Ginny arrived at the Beehawk's Nest at 4 pm, and the space inside expanded many times.

Harry and Ginny had just sat down when they heard an offensive voice:

"Oh, oh, oh, look, Potter and the little daughter of the Weasley family. It seems that Potter's vision is... very unique?" Malfoy and his followers smiled bitterly.

"Harry, ignore them" Ginny pulled Harry's arm hard.

Harry turned his head away angrily, not looking at Malfoy.But Malfoy's sarcastic tone became more and more harsh, and just when Harry couldn't bear it anymore——

"Draco, I remember that your comprehensive ability practical results last year were not particularly satisfactory. Why don't you read a book and think about what you didn't learn well?"

A tall and thin wizard wearing somewhat shabby clothes stood not far from Harry.

"Lupin...Professor Lupin...what did you..."

"It's Christmas break after all, and I'm a bit lazy - have you figured out what to have for afternoon tea?"

Malfoy was calmed by Lupin's words. He gave Harry and the others a cold look and sat down.

"And - come out, Sirius"

There was a slight sound, and Harry's godmother appeared next to Lupin.

"It seems that we shouldn't come here, because we will disturb the party between the two of you." Sirius smiled slyly.

Ginny seemed to be avoiding Sirius' gaze.

"Silis, when will you understand that Harry is more like Lily than James - let me look at the menu... um... what should I order?"

Harry was very embarrassed by Sirius's words: "She is Ron's sister... How can I... It's impossible... Ginny is really good at Quidditch, and she flies very smartly."

"You fly much faster than me," Ginny said out of nowhere.

"Okay... That's it, steak, cod, apple pie, and hot juice - has the secret of your golden egg been solved?" Lupine said and gave the menu to the waiter.

"Not yet - but I have an idea." Harry lowered his voice.

Sirius lowered his voice and said: "Then hurry up. Professor McGonagall definitely doesn't want the secret of your golden egg to be unsolved when the second round of special training begins."

Lupine's voice became even lower: "Harry, you have to work harder this year, at least this year. According to the intelligence, someone is very curious about your secret, and he will solve it at all costs."

"Yes...is he a mysterious person?"

Harry's voice turned into a dull hiss because it was too low.

Neither Lupine nor Sirius spoke, they just nodded silently.A chilly feeling enveloped Harry.The originally cheerful atmosphere was swept away.

"Harry...we have Professor Dumbledore." Ginny kept shaking Harry, as if to shake him out of the state of falling into an ice cellar.

"I know" Harry's tone was dull - "but he can't protect me all the time. I don't have the power like Winters -"

Ginny interrupted Harry: "Harry, listen to me, of course you are not as powerful as Winters, and we don't have as unfathomable magic power as him, but think about it, who killed the basilisk?" , protected the Sorcerer's Stone, Harry, you are very good, you can't do these things without courage and only magic power."

Lupine nodded seriously and said: "Yes Harry, you have to believe in yourself. The most important thing when facing challenges is courage. Without courage, there is no way to deal with challenges. I believe that after Professor McGonagall and Hogwart Thanks to the special training given to you by other professors, you will be fine."

While they were talking, the food was being served, and Sirius raised his cup and whispered: Merry Christmas, Harry.
