It was exactly a quarter of an hour later when the Malfoys arrived.

Harry happened to be stuffing the turkey at the time, Gerald held it in place and Sirius helped pull the turkey's legs apart.On the table next to them were large and small plates, which were piled up in a very Gryffindor-style mess, and Harry directed his godfather while stuffing ingredients into the turkey: "Pull the legs apart a little more, Otherwise, it’s not easy to stuff it in, and the turkey won’t taste good.”

"Okay, wait a minute," Professor Black followed Harry's order very faithfully. In terms of cooking, he really couldn't disobey a person who had been in the kitchen since he was a child. "Up or sideways?" Professor Black was concentrating on it, while Gerald also looked at the huge turkey on the plate with a serious face. He was responsible for fixing the big guy that had been shaved and coated with honey.

Gerald lowered his eyes, with no emotion in his eyes, as serious and error-free as he was looking at a dead body or an experimental product in front of him - he fixed the two wings of this big guy, ensuring that it like a statue.

Therefore, when the Malfoy family came out of the fireplace and saw the miserable state of the poor turkey, Draco's expression turned pale immediately. Big Malfoy not only saw the miserable state of the turkey, but even took care of it. The unaesthetic food piled up on the large and small plates next to the counter was also in his eyes, and he began to wonder why this Christmas came to Black's old house.

The only lady, Narcissa, kept the smile on her face. She took off her robe gracefully, and said naturally under the bewildered eyes of Black and others: "Merry Christmas, everyone, the next job is to Let me, the lady, take over, as men, you should have some tea and relax." Then she didn't ask why Kreacher, the only elf in Black's family, did not make the Christmas dinner at all, and walked to the cooking counter calmly , and drove away three men, big and small.

That calm and domineering look made all the men in the room silently obey her words.

Sirius breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, God knows how nervous he was just now, for fear that he might accidentally tear off the turkey leg.Gerald also wiped his sweat in his heart. He almost broke the turkey's wings. He is really not suitable for the kitchen!On the contrary, Harry felt a little regretful that this was the first time he wasn't in charge of the Christmas dinner at home.

After the three of Sirius washed off the greasy hands, men big and small sat down on the sofa and formed a circle.Kreacher also appeared with a snap. It was obviously very excited to see the Malfoy family, and in the midst of constant thoughts, he quickly made a few snacks and brought them up. table.

"Iced Coke!" Harry cheered, he had a busy day today, and a glass of iced Coke just woke him up, "I didn't expect you to order an iced Coke, Gerald, you are so considerate."

Both Lucius and Sirius cautiously looked at the glass of black liquid that was bubbling with ice cubes, and felt that it was more like a poisonous potion. Draco's eyes lit up, but he looked at himself His father glanced at him, and he was still obediently guarding the pumpkin juice in front of him, but how could he hide his eager eyes from his father, Lucius glanced at Draco, and sat still, because he really doubted Is that drink okay?

"Not only that, Harry, I also ordered pizza and burgers. The pizza is Italian seafood and curry beef, and the burger is the most classic fried chicken. Well, they are all small portions. Professor Black, Mr. Malfoy, you can all try it Taste." Gerald gestured to the food on the table, and there were two large plates containing the hamburger and pizza he ordered.The pizza is a special small portion, a three-inch portion, and it has been carefully cut. There is a lot of cheese. It is tied with a stick, and two different kinds of salad are used inside. The specially grilled beef slices and fried chicken pieces are separated by a slice of tomato and melted cheese. It looks delicious.

Sirius looked at his eyes brightly, and he said very dedicatedly: "Give me an iced Coke too." Then he picked up a piece of pizza and started to eat, and after taking the first bite, his face unconsciously appeared Smiling, Harry and Draco, who were used to pizza and hamburgers during the summer vacation, were not polite. When Draco looked at the pizza and hamburgers, he no longer cared about his father sitting on the side. He reached out and picked up the pizza skillfully. , in Lucius' speechless eyes, directly stuffed it into his mouth, then grabbed Harry's Harry, took a big gulp, and then exhaled refreshingly.

Lucius sat silently on the side, seeing that Draco didn't have the usual polite and elegant appearance at home, but was like those Gryffindors grabbing food with his hands and gulping some Coca-Cola, he accepted it a little. cannot.

"Is this pizza? It's really good, and this burger is also delicious, Gerald, give me the name of the restaurant, I want to order." Sirius couldn't stop eating at all, it makes sense that junk food can quickly sweep the world Yes, and, even though it is called junk food, it is the favorite of many Europeans, and they can't stop their hands from reaching out!

"Hmm - is this Coke?! It's really good!!" Sirius seemed to have opened the door to a new world, "Is this food from the Muggle world? It's really delicious, and this drink is also good, Lucius, don't be silly, come and order - often this burger is absolutely delicious!"

Lucius was forced to stuff a hamburger in his hand, and then he slowly stuffed it into his mouth under the eyes of others... Mmm... It's really good, the beef is grilled just right, the gravy and cheese are perfect The combination of the crispy skin of the fried chicken nuggets mixed with the smooth and tender meat of the gravy inside, plus the seasoning of lettuce and tomato... Lucius picked up another burger...

Then, Draco thoughtfully replaced the pumpkin juice in front of Lucius with iced Coke.

In the following time, the five men got along very well.Harry talked about some school things from time to time, Draco added, and Sirius also laughed and talked about interesting things about other Hogwarts professors-he didn't talk about Professor Snape, at this Christmas, He obviously didn't want to mention this irritating guy—Lucius also recalled the professors and the courses he taught during his school days.

"The last Potions professor was called Slughorn?" Gerald kept grabbing the content of their conversation, especially the professor's.Because the Hogwarts professors are not very volatile, just like Professor McGonagall, Professor Dumbledore, etc. are basically tenured, and death in office is their final fate.

Therefore, it is actually very easy to speculate on the tenure of the professor. Although "A Piece of Hogwarts History" does not clearly state the reason and where the professor is handed over, it also makes a detailed analysis of Voldemort's time at school. The introduction was vague, so it was a bit difficult to find the information and whereabouts of the professors who were in school at the time.

"Yes, that bald head like a big pumpkin," Sirius said with a smile, "He also created a snot club, which recruited a lot of students he was optimistic about, and then opened the back door for those students. To the hypocrite!"

"It's the Slug Club, Sirius." Lucius corrected unbearably. He glanced at Gerald, his eyes full of scrutiny. After Locke Holmes, he was full of wariness towards this family, because no one would be willing to have all his privacy seen at a glance, and he knew it well...even better than himself.

"Okay, okay, I see, anyway, that old pumpkin is searching for little wizards everywhere, just like searching for special products in the window, um, it's disgusting." Sirius shrugged, "That old guy is also a shrewd , disappeared quickly after the rise of the unnamed person, and no one has found his trace until now."

"Really, he seems to be a very cautious person." Gerald nodded, and wrote it down in his heart, because the potions professor's behavior was so strange, why did he escape, and he was from Hogwarts? .You know, even when Voldemort was ravaging the whole of England, Hogwarts was considered the safest place, because Dumbledore was in charge there, and it could be said that he was the only person Voldemort didn't dare to provoke.

If you are an ordinary person, in order to protect your own life, shouldn't you stay in a safe place... But this potions professor disappeared from the school, completely erasing his traces in the entire wizarding world...

Gerald numbered the professor in his mind, and when he was about to go back, he began to check around the professor. He must have important information about Voldemort hidden in him, and Dumbledore also understood this. Obviously, this Slughorn also Knowing that if he stayed at Hogwarts, maybe Dumbledore would follow him, so he disappeared immediately for his own life and not to choose between Dumbledore and Voldemort.

The time passed slowly in the chat. After Lucius took a sip of Coke, he also accepted the taste of Coke and felt that the drink tasted good.

And Narcissa also finished the Christmas dinner with the help of Kreacher. After everything was put on the table, the lady asked the gentlemen to come to the table. The time was just right, and the Christmas dinner began.

At this time, the surrounding portraits also changed. The heavy snow fell from the sky, the fireplace was burning, and the Christmas tree was shining under the firelight. It was covered with various small gifts and decorative ribbons. Floating in the room.The six wizards sat at the dining table, smiling unconsciously on their faces.

Kreacher hid in the corner and watched this scene, as if he saw the Black couple and her children in this room... At that time, Regulus was not born yet, and he was still in Mrs. Black's belly. A child sat on a chair and asked his mother curiously. Even Sirius, who was always rebellious, was honest. Smiling, a fire was burning in the fireplace next to them, and the Christmas tree was also beautifully decorated...

Kreacher's big eyes slowly filled with tears, and the next moment, he was gone.

His poor little master will never come back.
