From Karma Taj to Hogwarts

The Great Hall of Hogwarts is filled with a unique Halloween atmosphere - swarms of bats flying on the walls and ceiling; and low dark clouds transformed by weather spells hovering above the dining tables , as if there is really rain and thunder brewing in it.

The auditorium was surrounded by huge pumpkins, the largest of which was as high as half a floor. There is a bright candle in the belly of the hollowed pumpkin, and the candle flames flicker with the dark clouds above the dining table.

There is a band of skeletons on the stage in the auditorium, each wearing the same style of wide-brimmed Mexican sombrero hat. The musicians played guitars, vibraphones, trumpets and flutes, and the two lead singers sang beautiful songs.

"Please remember me, though I have to say goodbye... (Rememberme, though I have to say goodbye...)"

A folk ballad with excellent melody and flexibility brought joyful or sad emotions. The little wizards nearby listened to it intoxicatedly, and they all felt unusually light.

But Xiwen could hear the deep sadness. Not only because of the exhaustion of mental overuse, but also because this song reminded him of his past life and the teachers and friends of Kama Taj who separated the two worlds...

In his slightly blurred memory, he thought of his teacher. Master Yao has long said that he has lived too long and is too tired. He wants to find a successor to protect the world in his place. But he failed to live up to his expectations and fell into the arms of this world. Then who could the teacher find as his successor...

However, music always has an end. When the song finally came to an end, Xiwen pulled his thoughts back from the melodious singing.

Unconsciously, he burst into tears.

The audience burst into warm applause. Abraxas, who was sitting next to Xiwen, looked at him in disbelief and asked, "What's wrong with you? You're crying like this?"

Xiwen casually took out a napkin from the short wooden tube in front of him, wiped away his tears, and said calmly: "This song is so beautiful and touching."

Elsiona, who was not far away, obviously noticed Xiwen's abnormality. She came over and asked with concern: "Xiwen, are you okay?"

At the same time, she turned to Abu and said seriously: "Did you bully Xiven, Malfoy?"

"Me? Bullying him?" Abu said with a shocked face as he felt a bit toothache after hearing Elsiona's clearly distant address. "Don't you think about who in the first grade can bully him?"

Xiwen had also adjusted at this time. After listening to Abu's words, he felt a little happy, so he said to Elsiona: "Don't worry Al, I'm fine. As for whether Abu can bully me... …”

He glanced at Abu and said teasingly: "If he can study harder, there may still be some possibilities."

"I finally understand, you two are teaming up to bully me!" Abu's face was full of black lines, and he was dejectedly arguing with the food in front of him.

Xiwen smiled knowingly and accidentally glanced at the faculty seats on the stage.

Principal Dippet sat in the most luxurious chair in the middle. He was rarely wearing a bright red dress, which looked very festive, but it was incompatible with the scary atmosphere of Halloween.

The surrounding professors came up to him one by one to congratulate him, and most of them prepared gifts for him. The old principal also responded to these professors with joy.

According to Dumbledore, Principal Dippet just celebrated his 300th birthday a few days ago. However, he was always frugal and did not want to hold a separate birthday party to celebrate his birthday, so he decided to have an internal faculty member celebrate his birthday at a Halloween dinner.

At this time, Xiwen suddenly noticed that there were two empty seats on the faculty bench. In addition to Professor Kettleburn, who had recovered from health more than a month ago and gradually adapted to walking on wooden legs, who was standing next to the principal and chatting with him with a blushing face, there should be another faculty member who was not present. A dinner party.

"Abu." Xiven patted Abraxas on the shoulder and asked. "This banquet is not only a Halloween dinner, but also the principal's 300th birthday party. Which professor is so shameless that he dares not come to such an important occasion?"

When Abu heard this, he became curious and looked towards the staff table.

"There really is a professor who didn't come!" He said after looking around. "But how do I know who it is?"

Mobley heard their conversation, raised his head and wanted to have some fun, and said to Abu: "Anyway, we are almost done eating. How about we find out who didn't come to the banquet?"

"Good idea!" Abu nodded. "The one found first will have priority in copying Xiwen and Gomez's homework!"

"That's it!" After hearing Abu's suggestion, Mobley suddenly became more motivated and opened his eyes wide to count the professors on the faculty bench.

"You didn't even ask us for our opinions..." Xiwen and Gomez looked at the two people helplessly.

Gomez also added: "The problem is that they didn't recognize all the professors at all. If the ones who didn't come happen to be unknown, then how can they find out who didn't come?"

Xiwen nodded in agreement.

However, Abu was even more confident and said confidently: "Isn't it just a matter of personal connections? Then I will definitely win!"

Mobley didn't have the same connections as Abu, so he could only widen his eyes to an exaggerated degree and work harder to find the professor who didn't come.

Xiwen looked at the two of them boredly and yawned. Then, a flash of inspiration suddenly seemed to flash in his mind!

"Is Professor Luo Lei here?!" He stood up suddenly and asked eagerly.

Abramovich and Mobley were stunned when they heard what he said. They verified it at the staff table and found that it was indeed Professor Luo Lei who had not come.

Both of them were stunned and protested: "Xiwen, you can't do this, you are destroying the fairness of the game!"

Xiwen was in no mood to pay attention to the two of them at this time, and his mind was spinning rapidly. With his excellent memory, everything that has happened since the beginning of school is vividly remembered——

On the first night after the official start of school, in order to find the kitten, he violated the school rules and went on a night walk in the castle. On the way, he met Professor Luo Lei who was also on a night walk. It was only thanks to the cover of the ghost Xiwen that he was not exposed;

After the astronomy class on Thursday, he and a group of Slytherin wizards ran into Professor Lorre in the entrance courtyard, and Professor Lorre had just come up from the spiral staircase leading to the dungeon;

On the same night, Professor Luo Lei abnormally did not return to the office to rest. Instead, he walked around in a circle and returned to the entrance courtyard. At that time, Xiwen was curious about him and was followed by the ghost Xiwen. Unfortunately, he was accidentally encountered by the place. Maester Angulo interrupted;

Later, he and Professor Kettleburn were attacked in the Forbidden Forest. During the Defense Against the Dark Arts class the second week after the attack, I felt that Professor Lorre's eyes felt inexplicably familiar, but after that class I never had any doubts about it;

And then today, after communicating with Dumbledore, I discovered that I had been cast a confusion curse unknowingly. This confusion curse lasted for a long time, and even accumulated to the point that it affected my daily life...

One coincidence may be a coincidence, but so many coincidences are no longer coincidences, but real facts!

The truth is - the dark wizard wrapped in bandages in the Forbidden Forest is Professor Luo Lei, and the magic nodes of the castle were also destroyed by him!
