"What did you just say?" Wendy turned her gaze back from a distance.

Tom ground his molars: "I say, Hogsmeade."

Wendy looked up again: "It's going to be winter soon, and Ralph said that he needs to urgently make a batch of warm equipment."

Tom put his hands on Wendy's temples, forcing her to face herself. "Fuck his Ralph, 'Sea-Gull II' itself has a constant temperature function, what else does he want? If the development of 'Sea-Gull III' and 'Sea-Gull IV' continues, he will make the army king .”

Wendy moved uneasily: "He, probably, wanted to sell 'Seagull' to the Soviet Union. I heard that the Soviet Union suffered heavy casualties on the battlefield."

"Go, Ho, G, Mo, De."

Wendy blinked her blue eyes with clear whites, but didn't resist. "Ok."

Tom breathed a sigh of relief, Alphard was right, he needed to occupy Wendy's attention more, let all the Eastern students and handsome Gryffindors go to hell.

Oh, you asked what is the allusion to the handsome Gryffindor.In fact, it was nothing serious, but when the trick-or-treating duo passed by the Ravenclaw dining table this morning, they casually invited Wendy to participate in the weekend Hogsmeade Halloween event.Who is Tom?Tom is the head of the "Tree of Wisdom", and his ears and eyes are all over the colleges, and the news reached his ears in less than 3 minutes.

Gryffindor's trick-or-treating combination was once an iron triangle: Bruce Scarman, Harold Prewett, and Jost Weasley.But since the beginning of the third-year war, Yost has gradually faded out of this small circle.He was originally the one who provided small props behind the back of the trio, and now that the Riddle Factory project involved his energy, he naturally didn't care so much about mischief.In fact, as they grow older, Scarman and Prewett have gradually matured. Although they are still committed to bringing joy to everyone, they also have work to do-Scamman is Gryffindor Prefect of the boys, and Prewett was the captain and Seeker of the Quidditch team.

Cheerful personality, coupled with the appearance above the horizontal line, made the once annoying little boys the welcome target of girls, and the object of Tom's intermittent convulsions hostility.

Jost, who was angered, was about to cry: "They really don't necessarily mean that? Have you ever seen two people invite a girl on a date together?"

Alphard, who knew Tom better, managed to change the subject: "Hogsmeade's Halloween event? It sounds interesting, why don't you invite Wendy to go with you?"

Tom:! ! !

Alphard continued his efforts: "She's been too tense recently. Didn't Mrs. Farrell also say that Wendy needs to relax more?"

"That's a good idea." Tom said, "I've thought of that too." "We should give ourselves a vacation!"

The matter was so happily decided.Without notifying Wendy.

Saturday, September 1942, 10.

Alphard made up and turned into a mummy.When he wrapped his handsome face with a cloth strip stained with red paint, he almost cried for the friendship between him and Tom.

"Alphad, what kind of ugly outfit are you wearing? Is the aesthetics of the Black family so distorted?" Abraxas laughed at him.

Alphard maintained a plastic brotherly smile on his face: "Then you wear a suit that can highlight Malfoy's handsomeness." Then let Tom, who has intermittent convulsions, cut you to death.

Abu happily picked out clothes.Tuxedo, riding boots, pure white lining, and luxurious and precious gem decorations, it is better to say that Abu is going to a beauty pageant than participating in Halloween.Alphard finally couldn't bear it anymore, and picked out a fluffy dog ​​jumpsuit from the costume and put it on over his tuxedo.

"Hey!" Abu protested.

Alphard: "Be obedient, don't die."

As for today's protagonist, Mr. Tom Riddle, he ran to Ravenclaw Tower to inquire about the enemy without makeup. "Don't you dress up as a ghost or something?" He asked, looking at Wendy who was no different from usual.

Wendy straightened the pointed hat on her head, and lit up the broom in her hand: "I'm dressed as a witch today."

Tom turned and went downstairs.

"Tom?"

"I'm going to change into traditional robes and get a broom. I decided to dress up as a wizard."

"Are you following me? You can dress up as I do?" Wendy shouted behind him.

Tom didn't look back: "Yes, that's it! If you are lazy, I will be lazy too!"

Tom and Wendy, who are gradually approaching the threshold of adulthood, are occasionally childish, such as when they hold a small basket and yell "trick or treat" to the candy store owner.Hogsmeade seemed to be overwhelmed by pumpkins and candies, brightly lit like a fragrant kitchen.Wizards dressed as ghosts and vampires make faces at an enchanted jack-o'-lantern, scaring it into roasted pumpkins.The younger children held hands in groups and screamed from time to time, some were frightened and some were excited.

The Joke Shop has launched their new version - Jack who tells bad jokes.In fact, it is a row of pumpkin heads of different sizes. The amazing thing is that they communicate with people as if they have self-awareness.Although this kind of function is limited to Halloween night, it is already an amazing artificial intelligence in Wendy's opinion.Hogsmeade even held a "Joke Contest", in which people, magical creatures, and magic items can all participate. In the end, the pumpkin head made a cold joke and won the runner-up. The champion was a dancing ghoul, who didn't know it was real. The ghoul was still a wizard in disguise.

Wendy was tired from shopping, and sat with Tom on a round stool carved from pumpkins in the center of the town.The colorful lights twinkling on the numbers on the side of the street flickered.She peeled a toffee and stuffed it into her mouth, and immediately felt the magical taste of the magic candy melting in her mouth.The bonfire outside the town in the distance has already been lit, and a large masquerade party is about to begin.

Just as they were about to go to dance, discordant voices appeared around them.

"...Madman... really crazy... Art..." came a hoarse male voice.

Tom's hearing is the most sensitive, and he was the first to recognize the direction of the sound. By the time he tried to pretend he didn't hear it, Wendy was already staring at him curiously, waiting for the answer.

"Someone's arguing," said Tom.

"Go and have a look." Wendy decided.

Tom secretly made a note in the small notebook in his heart, and then reluctantly led Wendy towards the source of the sound.As they got closer, they finally heard the sentence clearly. It was actually the speaker—a skinny old man with white hair and ragged clothes. Once Tees is opened, the entire wizarding world will be destroyed."

The one who dragged the old man seemed to be the owner of a hotel: "Please, uncle. Come back with me."

"The wizarding world is going to be destroyed!" the old man shouted recklessly, and he added a "loud voice" to his throat, and then continued to shout, shouting so that the whole of Hogsmeade could hear, "Atlantic Teece opens, and the whole wizarding world will be destroyed. Crazy, really crazy."

Scarman and Prewett dressed as werewolves also came to find out. They haven't figured out the situation yet, they just think it's part of the Halloween event.The two big boys smiled and talked to the crazy old man: "Uncle, what's crazy?"

The old man's eyes were wide open, and his canthus was about to crack, as if two eyeballs would fall out of their sockets in a second.He almost said with trembling lips: "Who else? Grindelwald! That lunatic! He wants to reopen Atlantis!"

Grindelwald's name made the lively crowd fall into dead silence instantly, and even the dancers outside the town could hear "Grindelwald" clearly under the effect of "loud voice".

"I'm sorry. My uncle just came back from Germany, and he's a little irritated. I'll take him back right away." The innkeeper used "fainting" to take away the crazy old man who was like a hyperthyroid patient.

But word has spread.

There were close to [-] people in the town at that time, except for adults from all over the UK who came to the carnival, they were Hogwarts seniors.

For a while, "Atlantis" became the hottest topic on campus.

Even in Muggle tales, Atlantis is a powerful legend.The lost continent, the big city-state that sank at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, where black technology prevailed, almost pushed the whole world flat, and finally disappeared in the great flood.

The children were very curious about this, but Dumbledore did not expect that the first person to openly ask him about Atlantis in class would be Wendy. "Sir, can you tell us about Atlantis?"

Dumbledore didn't object. He knew that with children's curiosity, it was impossible to hide it. "Atlantis is an ancient city of wizards. One day more than 1 years ago, it suddenly disappeared from the earth. The magic of the people of Atlantis is very powerful. Legend has it that they can fly into the sky, dive into the deep sea, Create life, prevent death..."

A little wizard couldn't wait to interject: "If Grindelwald finds Atlantis, he can gain great power, then what shall we do?"

Dumbledore narrowed his eyes: "Of course he might look for it... But Atlantis has its own flaws, otherwise it wouldn't be destroyed suddenly."

The children wanted to ask again, but Dumbledore clearly didn't want to talk about the subject anymore. "You are facing this year's ordinary wizard level exam. Compared with Atlantis, I hope you can concentrate on the Transfiguration textbook."

Wendy pursed her lips in thought, she seemed to suddenly understand that Atlantis was the missing link in logic she was looking for.
