[HP] Blast! Word Small Universe

"What did Dumbledore say, Hagrid?" Harry asked.

"He's done enough for me," said Hagrid, shaking his head. "Just keeping those dementors out of the castle is hard enough for him, and Sirius Black hanging around."

Harry reached out and patted Hagrid's shoulder, and Jane found that Harry seemed to have given up coming to Hagrid to verify the question about Black, perhaps because Hagrid's tears touched him: "Listen, Hagrid, you can't give up. Jane and Hermione are right, you have to prepare your defense. You can call us as witnesses."

"I must have read about a hippogriff baiting case where the hippogriff was fine," said Hermione thoughtfully, "I'll do it for you, Hagrid. Take a good look at what's going on."

In the end Harry didn't ask anything, and they left Hagrid's place.In the next period of time, they were all immersed in various books to help Hagrid find a way to save Barcobeak.Until Christmas came, Harry received a torch, and the originally gloomy atmosphere finally improved.It's just that Hermione thought that the origin of the fire was unknown and should be handed over to Professor McGonagall, and they had a conflict over this.

Jane thought that Hermione's concerns were necessary, so she said to the two people who were arguing: "Harry, don't worry, if there is no problem with this broom, I think Professor McGonagall will return it to you, because I think McGonagall The Professor also wants you to win the Quidditch Cup for Gryffindor. There's no harm in letting them check it out, they'll fix it if there's a problem, and it's better than losing your life."

Facing Jane's remarks, Harry remained silent.Although what Jane says is correct most of the time, and he also likes to seek Jane's advice on many issues, he is still reluctant to part with this broomstick—this fire is so perfect!

At noon, they went to the hall together.All the tables in the hall had been removed when Jane got there, except for one long table that could seat thirteen people.At this moment Snape was already sitting there, he glanced at Jane, and moved away again.Jane wanted to sit next to Snape, but Professor McGonagall and Sprout were already sitting beside him.Without saying a word, Jane walked directly opposite Snape, pulled out the chair and sat down.

Hermione sat next to Jane, and Ron and Harry sat back in turn.Hermione sat opposite Professor Sprout, Ron opposite Professor Flitwick, and Harry opposite Filch.

"Why did you choose this seat?" Hermione felt that she didn't like sitting across from the professors for dinner at all.

Jane casually made an excuse: "Because it's empty here."

"Merry Christmas! There are not many of us, and it would be a little silly to use those tables in the houses," said Dumbledore enthusiastically, handing Snape the tail end of a large silver firecracker.

Reluctantly, Snape took it and pulled it, and the firecrackers exploded with a bang, revealing a large, pointed witch's hat with stuffed mountain eagles on top.He handed the hat to Dumbledore, who put it on his own head.

"Eat!" Dumbledore looked at everyone present, but as soon as he finished speaking, the door of the hall opened.In came Professor Trelawney, dressed for Christmas in a green dress trimmed with tinsel to make her look even more like a shiny oversized dragonfly.Dumbledore stood up and said, "Sybyl, it's a pleasure to have you!"

"Headmaster, I've been looking into the crystal ball, and to my surprise, I saw myself abandoning my lunch alone to join your dinner party," said Professor Trelawney in her faintest, most distant voice. : "Who am I, how can I refuse the urging of fate? I walked out of my building immediately, and I sincerely ask you to forgive me for being late..."

"Of course, of course," said Dumbledore, his eyes sparkling. "Let me get you a chair—"

Dumbledore added Professor Trelawney's chair to the position between Snape and Professor McGonagall. Fortunately, there is still a big gap between each person's position, otherwise Jane would not be able to sit in Snape. Instead of sitting opposite Pu, she had to sit opposite Trelawney, so she would be depressed to the point of internal injury.

Suddenly, Professor Trelawney whispered: "There is nothing more unlucky than thirteen in a seat for thirteen people! Never forget that if thirteen people eat together, they will be the first to stand up after the meal." the first to die! I think I've come just in time, for there are now fourteen in no time. Surely I should follow the crystal ball."

"We're willing to take the risk, Sybil," said Professor McGonagall impatiently. "Sit down, the turkey is going to be as cold as a rock."

Jane took a small piece of steak and cut it.She saw Snape, who was sitting across from her, take a spoonful of mashed potatoes, and then cut some turkey.After the meal, Jane spent most of the time secretly looking at Snape. Fortunately, Snape was sitting opposite her, and her peeping was hard to detect.Because most of the time, she raised her head with a calm expression and looked at the Potions professor sitting opposite her.

Just as Jane took a sip of creamy mushroom soup, Dumbledore suddenly asked Jane, "Jane, I remember you are going to Australia this holiday."

"Oh, yes." Jane put down the spoon, looked up and said to Dumbledore with a smile: "But I think traveling alone is always too boring, so I canceled the trip. Of course, more importantly, the travel agency There was a problem with that too. I think I've spoken to Professor McGonagall about it."

"That's right." Professor McGonagall nodded.

"I think you can find someone to go with you when you travel next time." Dumbledore said with a smile, "Australia is a nice country, and I have been there when I was young."

"I was planning to go to the Great Barrier Reef. It is said that the coral there is very beautiful." Jane said: "Of course I will definitely invite others to go with me next time, if the other party is free."

Snape, who was sitting across from Jane, stuffed a piece of steak into his mouth expressionlessly, not feeling that this conversation had anything to do with him.

"If possible, I want to go too." Ron looked at Jane expectantly, and stopped the fork in hand.

Jane turned her head to look at Ron, froze for a moment, then laughed: "I thought you would prefer to go to Egypt."

"That's because Charlie works there," said Ron. "Of course, it's really nice there."

During the next meal time, what they talked about most was the tourist scenery of various countries. It was not until later that they knew that Jane had traveled to many countries.She has been to France, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Egypt, Libya, Algeria, Spain, countries around the Mediterranean Sea.There are also Venice, Hawaii, these famous places, and she has played in all of them.This made Ron extremely envious.

They finished their Christmas dinner two hours later, and Harry had a private visit with Professor McGonagall before leaving.He talked about the problem with the torch, and finally he begged Professor McGonagall that if there was no problem with the torch, he hoped to get it back.Professor McGonagall nodded in agreement with Harry's request.
