[HP] Zizi Honey Candy

Chapter 16 Eight Hexagrams

"Do you know who I saw in Hogsmeade yesterday?"

Marietta came over with a mysterious look on her face, and I knew she must have learned some shocking gossip again.

"It's Digory! There's a girl beside him!"

I was so shocked that the book I was flipping through in my hand almost fell and hit my foot.

"Girl!" Qiu exclaimed, "Who, exactly who received Merlin's favor?"

"I don't know, but she should belong to Hufflepuff, she's wearing a Hufflepuff scarf! I can only see a back."

I was relieved that they didn't seem to know that it was actually me.

After I came back from Hogsmeade and separated from Cedric, I realized that I forgot to return the scarf when I walked to the door of the lounge. I hurriedly took off the scarf and hid it in my bosom, and put it in my closet when Qiu was not in the bedroom.

While Cho and Marietta were lamenting that Cedric had started dating girls, my eyes involuntarily glanced at the paper bag next to the bed—Cedric had slipped it to me before he left, and it was full of Zizi honey candy.

He really pushed it to me half-forcibly, because before I could react, he just said "goodbye" and then ran away, leaving me standing there alone.

"I think it will taste better than coconut sorbet."

That's what he told me, and I tasted one after he left, and just like its name, the taste of honey spread in my mouth.

"I can't believe it!" Marietta was still wailing.

"What's the matter—it's not the first time he's dating a girl. Before that, there will always be other girls around him, and he's so popular." I interjected pretending to be casual.

"No, according to the information I have, Digory has never, never, gone out alone with other girls. Even if there are girls, it is a large group. Of course, they are all unilaterally trying to surround him." Marie Ta crossed his arms in front of his chest, and specially emphasized the pronunciation of a few words.

there has never been…

"Tilly, are you hot? Why is your face so red?"

"I think so...it's a bit too hot in here." I stood up. "I guess I'd better go to the kitchen. Seriously, I-I'm kind of hungry."

Before the two of them could say anything, I put down the book and left the place.

"Hey! Just remembered, that girl's hair color and hairstyle are exactly the same as Tilly's."

"Impossible, didn't Tilly go with Luo Jie?"

"Oh! We haven't asked her about Roger yet!"

...

When I came to the kitchen, I saw Morgan sitting in the corner writing and drawing with a notebook. I walked behind her curiously, and there were some patterns I had never seen on it.

"Tilly? You really surprised me. When did you come?" Sensing my breath, Morgan turned to look at me.

"Hey Morgan, I see you seem to be busy, it says...Weasley Specially Developed...?"

"Yes, Fred and George are going to promote their new product at school, and I'm helping them think of some slogans."

"New product?"

"It's still in the research and development stage, but the effect is still very good." Morgan took out a candy in her pocket for a while, and a candy lay in her palm. Effect."

I took the candy, it looked like a normal candy.

"Don't confuse it with other candies. Eating this can make you have a high fever instantly. Even Madam Pomfrey can't find out why, but the solution is very simple. You just need to take the candy wrapper Just eat it."

"Wow, that sounds great, but why are you skipping class?"

"...Sure enough, I shouldn't say this in front of the first grader." Morgan felt a little helpless, I put the candy back in her hand, I can't guarantee that I will confuse it with other candies one day, but Every time I finished eating candy, I would throw away the candy wrapper, but she still insisted on giving it to me, saying that I could give it to others and promote it by the way.

Although I don't think it's particularly good to do so, I can't say no to Morgan, especially when she said that they are developing a candy that only needs one to experience different tastes.

"By the way, let me tell you something that may interest you." Morgan opened a small book, which was packed with various expenditures, "Let me look for it... Yes, not long ago Digory also asked me for this sugar."

"Cedric? Is he interested in such things, too?"

"Maybe, but I don't think he wanted to use it for himself. He also took Fredella to the corner and said something secretly. In the end, he paid twice the normal price."

"That's strange, is he trying to escape Quidditch training?"

Just wondering, the house elf on the side had packed the food I wanted and handed it to me.

"Thank you." I smiled at him. He seemed very excited, with tears in his big eyes. "I'm going first, Morgan. I still have a paper on Potions."

Morgan waved to me, and resumed writing.

When I was halfway towards the exit, I suddenly thought of what to write and asked back.

"By the way, Cedric... which one did he choose?"

"I remember...it's the candy that can make people's stomach grow up in an instant."

...

When I returned to the dormitory, I still hadn't put down the basket, and two figures surrounded me.

"Mary, are you still going back?" I looked at the smiles on the faces of the two of them, and I had a bad feeling in my heart.

"Put the dessert aside for now, have you forgotten something that you haven't reported to us?" Marietta took my basket and put it aside.

"Hey, my cake!" Even Qiu didn't stand by my side this time, she showed the same "want to know" aura like Marietta from all over her body, which made me shrink back in fear .

"Now, tell us, how was your date with Roger?"

"What about..."

Well, it's time to come.

"Progress! Are you holding hands? Has he confessed to you?"

"Or did you say no to him? My God, he must be very upset!"

"Hey! Not what you think!" I retorted. "Roger...he wasn't here that day, he wasn't feeling well."

The mouths of the two of them opened wider than the other, so I couldn't help but want to stuff the cake into their mouths separately, and plug their mouths by the way.

"Oh Tilly, you must be very sad." Cho gave me a comforting hug before returning the basket to me. "Eat quickly, I hope this makes you feel better."

"Well, thank you..." Should I be glad they didn't ask further?

Qiu and Marietta obviously thought that I was very sad after being let go, and started chatting about other gossips without asking too much.

...

The last attack seemed to have caused some sort of panic for everyone, during which time everyone chattered and exchanged amulets, exorcisms, and other things to protect themselves, without telling the teacher.

There are also some people in Ravencrow secretly trading in private, especially those Muggle-born wizards. Even Morgan has become a little nervous recently. She has been hiding in the dormitory recently, and I rarely have the opportunity to see her. .

This atmosphere lasted until the second week of December, and I didn't say yes to other people's requests to ask me out on a date.Roger ran over to me a few days ago to apologize, and said that he wanted to make up for me next time, but I vaguely declined. Since the last time, I have been a little... I don’t want to go out alone with other boys. The scarf arrived It's still under my closet. I can't find a chance to return it to Cedric alone. I haven't seen him much recently. I hope he still has extra scarves to help him survive this severe winter.

As usual, I decided to go home for Christmas, although the school Christmas dinner was really tempting, but I was feeling a little homesick anyway.

Mom said that this Christmas they would welcome me home by cooking me a big meal, which made me pray that Christmas would come soon, and I couldn't wait to see their faces.

A week later, a freshly stapled parchment appeared on the bulletin board, and everyone flocked to see what was on it.

"Duel Club? What's that?"

"It may be that recent events have caused panic, so they decided to teach us some practical dueling techniques to protect ourselves."

"Tilly, are you going?" Qiu asked me while standing aside.

"It's okay to go and have a look." I nodded, "I heard that Professor Flitwick was a duel champion when he was young, maybe he came to teach us."

Or any other professor will do, as long as it's not that useless idiot who only knows how to brag about himself.

After a few lessons, I finally realized how blind I was, Lockhart was useless, I don't know why he had those experiences - they were really exciting and useful, but I was still in front of him Pretending to be very interested in his teaching, because that's the only way I might get his autograph one day and go read the books in the restricted section, he's the only one who won't ask me What are you going to do in the restricted area? If other professors know that I am just interested, they will definitely not agree.

At eight o'clock in the evening, we came to the auditorium.The long dining table disappeared, and along one wall appeared a gilded stage, lit by hundreds of candles floating overhead.The ceiling was once again as black as velvet, and almost all the students from the school came, crowded together, each holding his own wand, and his face was full of excitement.

But when I saw the figure appearing on the stage, the anticipation on my face disappeared in an instant.

I should have thought of that, Merlin's stinky socks.
