Azkaban: The Fifth House of Hogwarts

There is only one day left until the Christmas holiday, and the atmosphere in the usually serious classes can't help but become much more cheerful. The professors don't want to embarrass this group of eager students, and even assign less homework than usual.

Usually at this time, the little wizards will go on a happy Christmas trip with their families after celebrating Christmas. They cannot be forced to scratch their heads and solve a mountain of homework halfway through the trip. Such a holiday is soulless.

"Before we part ways for a short time, let's go to Hagrid's to get together?"

When the last class in the afternoon ended, Harry met Draco waiting for him at the door on his way to the Great Hall.

"Rollo said he has prepared a barbecue party. Come on, let's go together."

"Okay!" Harry nodded repeatedly, "Hermione, are you coming too?"

"Of course we have to go together. You won't gain weight by having a barbecue once in a while, am I right, Hermione?"

"But I want to put my schoolbag in the lounge first..."

Before Hermione could finish speaking, Draco picked up her bag. Then he was staggered by the large school bag stuffed with at least six dictionaries. He suddenly exerted force and made his There was a slight color on his face.

"Oh, it's really heavy."

Draco bared his teeth, "I remember you only had two Charms classes today, why did you bring so many things?"

"Extracurricular readings."

Hermione, with her hands empty, walked lightly in front, "I think Rollo is right. I need to read something other than textbooks. However, I can't take library books home to read. I can only borrow them." Leigh’s Hedwig went to the bookstore and ordered a few copies.”

"I really hope Harry, you've prepared some snacks for Hedwig, it's quite a long flight."

"I just said why Hedwig is a little unhappy recently, what should I prepare to make up for it?"

Harry nodded thoughtfully and then asked Draco.

"Maybe buy it some mouse flakes? Owls seem to like this, including the one I have."

While chatting about the Christmas gifts for Hedwig, several people passed through the gate of the castle and moved along a smooth road pressed by a sleigh.

Hesitantly, Hagrid had been delivering things to the castle from time to time in the past few days. The road to his house was not too difficult.

Not long after, the three of them approached Hagrid's hut and saw the smoke rising against the wind and snow. A strong aroma penetrated their noses continuously, causing them to speed up and move forward.

"It's Fred and George! Why are they here too?"

After walking closer, Harry saw several people busy in front. Rollo invited not only the three of them, but also several new faces they didn't recognize.

"How can we help, Rollo?"

Draco, who had unloaded his heavy schoolbag in one step, asked Rollo, and Harry and Hermione also stepped forward.

"It's almost done. Just wait until Hagrid comes back from the forest. He felt that there was too little meat, so he planned to catch some fresh ones. Now that winter has just arrived, the long-tailed bears in the Forbidden Forest are full of fat, and There is also a lot of phantom honey hidden, the same one I gave you last time."

"If you roast the bear meat until it sizzles and then brush it with honey, it will taste really good. I went to the centaurs to get some spices to make sure there is no trace of the meaty smell."

"By the way, I almost forgot to introduce you. You should all know Fred and George. The handsome guy next to them is Cedric Diggory, the Seeker of the Hufflepuff team, and you are in the same company. Here we are, Harry."

Hearing Rollo call his name, Cedric turned around and waved, showing a sunny smile.

"The person who is building the shed is Germa Farley, the student union president of Slytherin. I plan to ask him to help me manage the foundation. I have set up many reward mechanisms in Slytherin. I can't just leave it after I graduate." Cancel it, right?”

"This is my honor and Slytherin's honor. Thank you for your trust."

How could Germa have any inappropriate arrogance when facing his sponsor? Whether he can take off depends on whether he can get things done next.

"The last one is Rolf Scamander, my good colleague in the research project. He is also a Hufflepuff student. He is a first-year student like us, but he is extraordinary. In the study of magical creatures, he You can be regarded as half of my teacher."

"Just make fun of me, Rollo, I still have a lot to learn." A somewhat embarrassed Rolf smiled shyly, walked up and shook hands with the three of them.

After they set up the camp for the barbecue party, there were rustling sounds in the woods.

Carrying a huge bear leg, Hagrid came out of the forest against the falling snow.

"Sorry, I'm late."

He laughed and raised his hand to show everyone the fresh prey.

"I caught a particularly big long-tailed bear, which weighed almost six tons, so I dragged it to the centaurs. But one leg was almost enough for us to eat. I also left the heart, which can be used as brute force. Each of you will eat a small piece of the main ingredients of the potion later, the mere cold wind is nothing!"

Hagrid patted his chest, making a loud and dull sound, which shook a lot of snow from the treetops.

"Then can you wrestle shirtless in the snow? Hagrid, give me an extra piece. Today I want to have an old grudge with Fred!"

George, who was showing off his toned body, lifted up his thick cloak, but when the cold wind blew, he instantly retracted into the cloak like a turtle.

"I would really like to see George turn into a hot-blooded muscular baboon and take you home to work. One of you will definitely be worth ten."

Fred, who was holding his hands aside, smiled mischievously. As long as they didn't deceive others, the twins really liked to have some fun for each other.

"It won't be a problem if you eat too much. It's just that it's easy to accidentally crush the cup and cut your hand. Just take a small piece per person, and don't eat good food randomly."

Hagrid, who had not been harassed by the twins for a long time, also had a better attitude towards them. Although these two troublemakers sometimes gave him a headache, as long as they were willing to behave, they were good children.

The meat is cut into large pieces and marinated, and the meat is cut into large pieces and slowly roasted in a simmering oven. The meat is cut into small pieces and is brushed with seasonings and skewered together with bell pepper and garlic to become an incomparably delicious large meat skewer.

The atmosphere quickly became lively, and everyone was chatting about Christmas arrangements. Fred, George, and Cedric also showed off the prank props they had just begun to research, which were a group of pranksters that could play tricks on people. Fake wand.

"But the transformation magic is not very stable yet. We are choosing the right materials to make it, otherwise the prop will not be so effective if we change it a few times. Ced has been a big help. The two of us are not as good at transformation as he is, although we can barely Strong enough is enough, but we are really afraid of Professor McGonagall, after all, we dare not say what those weird ideas are for."

"But Ced is a good student, and professors always prefer good kids like him. Am I right, sweet baby Ced?"

George, who was smiling playfully, moved closer to Seid.

"Why don't you stop your mouth with a Category [-] gust, George? Let you see what a good baby can do!"

Cedric strangled George's neck and unleashed a secret technique on his waist and ribs: dragon claw hands enchanted by ice and snow. George, who had no resistance to the tickling, had a twisted smile on his face. He stuck out his tongue and reached out to Fred for help. , but what he got was Fred's persecution even worse.

In less than half a minute, the two of them let go of George's game. George crawled to the side and took out the snowballs with a grin on his face. Fred, the bad guy, made two snowballs as big as volleyballs and threw them at him. He was stuffed under his clothes, and his current bust size was such that a girl would have to cover her eyes just looking at it.

"Suffer death, you bastards! I hope my body fragrance can give you a good dream!"

A snowball fight with a strong sense of revenge began. After being affected many times, people who were watching the fun were forced to join the fight, and the lively atmosphere around the campfire became high again.

After being noisy for a long time, the few people gathered around the fire and lifted their cloaks to warm themselves up all had white steam coming out of their heads.

"so good."

Harry, who was a little out of breath from playing, said with envy, "Are you all going home for Christmas?"

"We would have stayed," Fred said.

"Mom and dad are going to take Ginny to Romania to see Charlie. He has just graduated this year and is engaged in such a dangerous job. We are all very worried." George also started chatting.

"However, Charlie changed his job and can come back for Christmas this year, so the plan to stay in school has been cancelled. However, we have prepared a gift for you, and my mother has also prepared one for you."

"Really!" Harry, who was suddenly surprised, looked at Fred.

"Of course, Mom mentioned you several times in her letter, but that idiot Ron..."

In the middle of his words, Fred was given an elbow by George.

"Ron is an idiot though, but me and Fred, and even Percy."

"That guy is shyer than us."

"Stupid mouth."

"My mind is full of student body president."

The twins who had scolded Percy no longer had the playful smiles they had just now.

"As that idiot's brother, we apologize to you, Harry. I will take good care of our idiot brother after Christmas."

"Although he did something stupid, I believe it was because he was stupid and not intentional. Malfoy is indeed not a good guy to our family."

Fred opened his hands to Draco, "Your dad always makes trouble for my dad, almost every time we meet."

"This is a fact. The relationship between our two families is indeed very bad and has lasted for a long time." George told the truth. The twins never denied this.

"But you're okay, Draco. You're better than your dad."

"We have watched for a long time. Slytherins are not necessarily bad guys, and you are also a different Malfoy."

Rollo didn't actually change Draco much. He just corrected and taught Draco one thing, that is, to explain everything with facts. Whether it is glory, pride or anything else, it is useless to say it with words. What others see is how you appear.

Meeting Hagrid allowed Draco to break the stereotype that non-pure bloods were inferior for the first time. No wizard could do what Hagrid could do.

Meeting Hermione through Harry's hand strengthened this concept. As a young wizard of Muggle origin, Hermione's efforts were scary to him, not to mention that although Hermione's talent was not top-notch, But it is also higher than myself.

The idea that purebloods should be naturally superior was denied by Draco himself. He had seen genius non-purebloods and stupid purebloods. He couldn't tell the difference between the two.

Maybe Draco has changed for the better, but it should be said that Draco has seen all this clearly and is no longer under the indoctrination and influence of his parents.

"Thank you."

Draco lowered his head slightly. The kindness shown by the twins to him was somewhat beyond his expectation. This reasonable change made Draco feel warm in his heart. He seemed to have accomplished something that even his father could not do.

Yes, the Malfoy family and the Weasley family have always been sworn enemies, but what could be more proud than being recognized by the enemy?

Draco asked himself, he had never shown kindness to his twin brothers, but in the end he got recognition from them. This was something that neither his father nor the predecessors of the Malfoy family had ever done.

"I am Draco Malfoy. This surname is destined, but I am Draco. I don't understand the hatred of adults, so here, in this school, and even in other places later, I just want to be myself.”

"Thank you, and thank you Rollo."

Draco turned to look at the smiling Rollo and said seriously: "Thank you for telling me what glory is. It is not only the glory of Slytherin, but also the glory that belongs to each of us."

"Perhaps we should drink to friendship?"

Draco raised his own glass and filled it with hot butterbeer.

"cheers!"

The slightly heavy atmosphere just now dissipated immediately, and everyone's face was filled with smiles. It was a pity that Harry had already submitted his application to stay in school, otherwise the people present would have been willing to let Harry go over and spend a lively Christmas with them.

The braised long-tailed bear meat has a beautiful amber sheen. After eating the bear heart skewers, they don't have to worry about the cold wind blowing from time to time. People who are full of strength can vent their strong energy to their heart's content today. After the night, some people set off on their way home to reunite, while others are looking forward to the promised Christmas together next year.

(It’s too long and I haven’t finished it yet. This section has about 4 sections, which is considered an important branching point of the plot. I apologize to everyone. I will try my best to write out the remaining three sections tomorrow. I will update it tomorrow.)

(In the second semester of the first grade, I almost started to enter the serious sad wind line. The previous ones were all small things, and the necessary things were already prepared, such as the dragon training farm, fire dragons, research on cross-species reproduction, and Ani. Magus transforms, everything is ready, the fun has just begun.)
