The happiness of HP

On Christmas Day, the snow that had been falling for a week stopped.

During the day, the professors of Hogwarts sent away a carload of students, all students under the third grade were sent away.For students above the third grade, some of their families who are not wizards have also left. After all, for Muggle families, Christmas is a very important festival, regardless of their beliefs. It is about reunion. For the students who have been away from home for nearly three months, Said, going home is a temptation.However, since wizards do not celebrate Christmas, Hogwarts' invitations to many wizards have been answered.So, tonight, Hogwarts was still very lively.

It was relatively close to the opening time when Harry and Severus arrived.After all, they didn't come out until Adina and Asteria were fed and put to sleep.Fortunately, Harry had the foresight to let the two children have fun during the day, so after feeding, they began to yawn from exhaustion.So it didn't take Harry and Severus much time to coax them together, otherwise there was a considerable risk of missing the opening.

Harry had designed Severus a very form-fitting black tuxedo dress with emeralds and bright silver magic thread in a beautiful intricate pattern that most wizards would not recognize, although some Academic masters who know the goods will recognize this as a very partial magic power gathering circle.This magic circle is useless to those with low magic power, because it requires a lot of magic power to activate it, and it is useless to those with high magic power, because the amount of magic power it can gather is pitifully small for those with high magic power, so, you can Said it was a chicken rib.However, now it seems that this magic circle is good for decorating clothes.And Harry's dark green dress robe is a more traditional retro style with the waist reaching to the ground. It is embellished with obsidian, and the hem is decorated with three layers, so that the wide hem will not be turbulent at will.The long hem and upper body use bright silver magic thread and obsidian to outline a pattern similar to the magic power gathering circle.However, this magic circle is even more eccentric and useless. It is called the Attraction-Repulsion Test Array, which is generally used in St. Mungo's special ward.Its function is also somewhat difficult to explain. Simply put, it is used to reflect the liveliness of the magic power of various attributes around it.However, the shape of this magic circle is also very suitable as a decorative pattern, and it looks very matching with the pattern on Severus' body.

Of course, the ability of this dress to defend against spells is also first-class, because around each gemstone there is a defensive array embroidered with magic thread of a similar color to the cloth, and these defensive arrays can also form a large protective array .But you can't see it unless you look closely.

The two came dressed up, and they naturally attracted everyone's attention. The dresses were naturally unique.Moreover, Severus wore a simple silver-gray shirt and a dark green bow tie. The color and material of the bow tie were the same as Harry's coat; He wears a vintage shirt with lotus leaf sleeves and a lotus leaf stand collar, and he wears a blooming black knight on the chest of the robe.This kind of color makes even people who don't know the relationship between the two people understand that the two people are a couple, let alone those friends who know the relationship between the two people?So when the two of them took a glass of champagne from the wine rack and stood outside looking for their children's position, some friends came over to tease them.

"Good evening, both of you." Langman brought his wife Yasmin to the side of the two of them, raised his eyebrows slightly, "Couple outfit? Are you so bold?"

"What? Is there a problem?" Harry raised his eyebrows slightly, "Welcome to Hogwarts, Yasmin, your beauty overshadows the stars."

"Hehe, Jeremy, you're always so nice, Severus won't be happy." Yasmin laughed.

"Not at all." Harry turned his head to look at Severus, full of affection, and then said.

"Tsk tsk, my dear, does it look like they've been married for 16 years?" Yasmin joked with a smile when she saw the way the two looked at each other.

"It's not like that at all. It looks like a couple who are still on their honeymoon. It's like honey." Langman could only agree with his wife's words.

"Okay, the two of you really hit it off, and Silver and I bow down." Harry smiled and took a sip of champagne. There were a lot of students today, so there was no spirits on the field, only champagne and fruit wine at most.

At this moment, someone from the organizing committee of the teaching competition came over and asked Severus to come over. Severus reluctantly exchanged cheek kisses with Harry, and then left with a little satisfaction.

"I said, is the dress on Severus your work?" Longman asked.

"Yes." Harry nodded.

"Let me just say, who else would have thought of using that side door magic circle as a decorative pattern?" Baikal brought his partner along. His partner is not in the academic circle, so he rarely appears In Baikal's laboratory, although his magic power is not very strong, he is a good hand in managing his family and business.In the entire French wizarding world and even in the entire European wizarding world, who doesn't know the commercial emperor of the French wizarding world, the head of the Gauguin family?However, this gentleman has always been low-key. Many people don’t know his appearance after hearing his name. Many people don’t know that Baikal’s partner is him. However, Baikal can afford his studio because Gauguin is behind him. .You must know that alchemists are not ordinary prodigals, and Baikal is the kind of passionate researcher who starts to experiment when he has an idea, and insists on experimenting to obtain true knowledge.However, Mr. Gauguin and Harry are very close friends, because they have a lot of cooperation in business.

"Augustus, it's really rare that he came with this guy? I don't know how many men and women will be sad because of this." Yasmin teased.

"I told the wizarding world very early on that I have lovers. If they are still sad, they deserve it." Gauguin said indifferently. His fluent English really makes people feel that this gentleman is a native British gentleman.

"Merry Christmas, Augustus," Harry said.

"Jerome, Merry Christmas. The last order was thanks to your help. I always feel that it is a pity that you are not a professional businessman." Gauguin's attitude surprised the Langmans, because this This character has always been indifferent, he is not ruthless, but he is indifferent to everything outside.He can answer and speak to what others say, but he can't hear emotion when he speaks.He wouldn't get involved unless it was Baikal talking to him.But what they said to Jeremy just now made them feel happy, grateful and regretful.My God, is this still Emperor Gauguin?

"Hehe, actually, my ears are covered with calluses." Harry said with a smile, "Sev said that as long as I can be discovered by someone, I will get such an evaluation. He said, in fact, I just like freedom."

"Never put yourself into a specific frame, so you are what you are now. That's good." Gauguin showed a rare smile.

"Ah, Jeremy, you are really amazing. My Ogg is very difficult to tease." Baikal said in surprise, but he was also very happy that her husband could become friends with his friend.

"Bei, you are the best, dear, I love your expression." Gauguin said happily, and kissed his partner's face, leaving a hickey on purpose.

"This side too, Ogg, pay attention to the symmetry." Baikal immediately handed over the other side of the face.

"Yes, my alchemist." Gauguin was very pleased with his partner's reaction.

"I said, it's outside now, so pay attention to the impact." Langman reminded.

"This is a sign of our love. Anyway, he kept it. It's fine if he doesn't get jealous. It's nothing. If you don't have a few hickeys in France, you can't go out." Baikal said.

As a German, Langman had studied in France, but he still couldn't understand the thinking circuit of some French friends.

"Hehe, you are here." At this moment, a voice full of laughter made everyone look over.

"Sharp, you're here too? It's been a long time." Seeing his friend, Harry immediately walked up happily, "I heard that you went to the East to find new varieties of magic plants. How about it?"

"I found several miraculous plants. When you come back to Italy, I will show you." Sharp said excitedly, and then planned to tell Harry about his adventure, "Jerome, Baikal, Longman, Let me tell you..."

"Ahem..." A man standing behind Sharp cleared his throat.

"Ah, let me introduce you. This is the one from my family. He has been very busy. You haven't seen him yet, have you? Luigian Baresi." After being reminded by the man, Sharp immediately said with some embarrassment.

This man is not tall, nor is he conspicuous. He is the kind of person who can't see anything special about him in the crowd. He has a very low sense of presence, but Harry looked at the light brown mid-length hair and Light green eyes, with a slight smile -- a person with such a low sense of existence is either a mediocre person, or a deliberate disguise.Yasmin's expression changed upon hearing his name, and Gauguin showed interest in his eyes.

On the contrary, Baikal and Langman greeted this friend's partner casually, and Jeremy greeted this man gently: "It's an honor to meet you, Consultant Baresi, I didn't expect to see you here your turn."

Baresi was taken aback when he heard the title "consultant", and then he smiled helplessly and said, "As expected of Mr. Ashaprite, the head of House Potter."

"I just said you don't want to fool him, Louis." Sharp also shrugged, "Jerome is neither of these two people."

"That's right, the master of the Potter family is the master of Anginnis." Baresi also had a new assessment of Harry, and took the initiative to say, "Please don't be so polite, just call me 'Luigian'."

"Okay, Luigian, please call me Jeremy." Harry also nodded.

"I never thought Mr. Baresi would be so close to me one day." Yasmin said, "Nice to meet you."

"Mrs. Stoke, you are indeed very handsome. Over the years, Patriarch Hefness has been telling me about her capable sister." Baresi praised in a gentlemanly manner.

"Ah, Mr. Baresi is indeed the best lobbyist in Europe." Yasmin laughed.

"I didn't expect that Baikal and Sharp have known each other for many years, but this is the first time we have met. Although I should express disgust at some actions led by you." Gauguin said indifferently.

"That's because Patriarch Gauguin made money too fast, and it was a last resort." Baresi shrugged, "I believe you will also find more new fun and challenges. Life is too easy, and it seems boring."

"You convinced me, Mr. Baresi. You can call me 'Augustus' like Jerome." Gauguin suddenly felt that with Jerome and this man, it was not in vain tonight.

"Ah, Augustus, please call me 'Luigian' too." Baresi had no ill feeling towards this business emperor who had always been indifferent to others, but he was more interested in Jeremy, and even Hogwarts. Headmaster Snape.

Baresi provided political consulting services to wizarding politicians and aristocrats in many countries around the world, and Britain had the least number of clients among his client base.He has always had a lot of curiosity about British wizards, and the most curious one is naturally his friend who his partner has been talking about-Jerome.Mr. Asaplet, he has an amazing and legendary life, from the savior to the academic master, to the current master, the mentor of the prince of the elves and the prince of the water clan.But he was willing to let the powerful Wizengamot chief not be a vice-principal at Hogwarts.In Baresi's view, this man is a very wise man, worthy of his heart-to-heart.

After a while, Severus finished his work and came over, bringing some children.A few children called uncle and aunt, making this small circle extremely lively.

"Teacher, Mr. Ashaprite's place is really lively." After Jefferson and his wife exchanged greetings with a potion master, a young apprentice beside him said specifically.

"Oh, it's them, then don't go there." Mrs. Jefferson glanced at it and said immediately.

"Wouldn't it be nice to just go and say hello?" the apprentice asked puzzled.

"Those people are difficult people. The past is just asking for trouble." Mrs. Jefferson said.

"Mary is right. Rika, the blond one is my senior. He is the partner of Master Morse, Augustus Gauguin, who is known as the commercial emperor of the European magic world. He is a terrible person. As for The one with the tawny hair is Mr. Baresi. I met him in the minister's office some years ago. According to the minister, he is the partner of Master Splendence and the most successful personal political adviser in the wizarding world. That woman It's Mrs. Stoke, who used to be the eldest lady of Hefness." Jefferson said to his apprentice, "Jerome and Severus are getting harder and harder to offend."

"Then don't be offended. I heard that the friendship between the three of them is very good." Mrs. Jefferson said.

"Of course. Oh, Merlin, even Mr. Inarius is here." At this moment, Jefferson saw Inarius walking over to say hello to Severus, and then blended into the small circle.

Merlin, that is probably the scariest coterie in the wizarding world in Europe.
