HP's Adagio Minor

Chapter 58 [58]

??

During the weekend, when Lola was looking for paper materials in the library, Vichy rushed in suddenly and said out of breath, "Lola, your room is leaking!"

"what?!"

She was fine when she left the room this morning, so how could it be leaking?

When Lola followed Vichy to the student tower, she saw that the steps of the stairs were full of water stains, and the more they went up, the damper they went.On the seventh floor, a group of boys were gathering outside the girls' dormitory, and water gushed out from the gap at the bottom of the door, looking like a small waterfall.

"The ceiling of our room is full of seeping water, like it's raining... What's going on here?" The first-year students on the sixth floor were very puzzled.

"I don't know." Another student knocked on the wooden door, "The sound inside is not quite right."

"Everyone, give way!" Vichy squeezed into the crowd with Lola, "Huh, hurry up, Lola."

"The Dementor's Kiss."

The girl read the password, and when the small door opened, the rushing water seemed to have found a vent and rushed out.Everyone hurried to the side to dodge - the water wave swung around in the lobby on the seventh floor, and went along the stairs, chilling the students who were looking down.

Laura retracted her wand, her water-repellent charm was used just right, and she and Vichy were the only ones in the group who didn't get splashed.

"..."

Vichy hadn't recovered from the 'flood attack' yet, seeing the girl's expression suddenly darkened, she took a look into the dormitory, dumbfounded.

"Merlin's beard, who cast the spell privately?"

Several senior seniors rushed over after hearing the news, and everyone in the student tower was startled. The boys walked into the girls' lounge in curiosity and shock. Neither is too much:

The wallpaper, door frames, and even the ceiling are full of water stains and smudged paint stains, the window screens are torn and torn, the brocade suede sofas on the walls, and the carpets have been scratched several times. , The discolored lining was exposed, and the floor of the entire room was softened by water, not to mention the smashed and cracked vases, tables, chairs and bookshelves with broken limbs.

Lola felt distressed and sad at the same time. Is this unrecognizable place really her room? !

All the clothes and blankets in the bedroom were soaked, and the deformed owl cage was hanging on the bed frame. She quickly released the red-tailed vulture inside, and the bird's shriek was full of accusations and anger— —From then on, it never wanted to enter the cage again.

Seeing the girl's eyes turned red, everyone felt sympathetic. Except for the one who was sent to find the teacher on duty, the rest of the people helped to move the 'not so bad' furniture and boxes out. The algae and seaweed in the house can't get rid of the graffiti.

"It looks like someone did it with a 'magic oil paintbrush'."

"Strange, the water pipe is also broken."

The faucet in the bathroom was still spraying water continuously. The fourth grade prefect Bruno Dinklage tied the faucet with a magic spell, which slightly eased the water.

"Hurry up, what is this?"

Someone pointed at the wall on the other side of the bedroom and yelled, and saw that it was covered with pieces of white and soft stuff--sucked 'Muggle supplies' with heavy edges drooping.

"Looks like it's attached with a permanent adhesive charm."

The boys who had never seen such a thing were very curious, and one of them couldn't help but reached out and touched it.

"Stop—" the girl screamed, "Get out, get out!"

"No offense, it's just..." The boys wanted to say something, but they were swept up by an inexplicable gust of wind and thrown out of the bedroom door.

"Ouch!"

"How is this going?"

Vichy fell down with several boys, and finally struggled to stand up from the slippery floor. The professor and the student council officer came in a hurry.

"What happened?" Professor Scott looked around the room, "Can anyone tell me?"

Everyone shook their heads silently, including the owner of the room who was holding the bedroom door tightly and blushing to the point of bleeding.

??

That afternoon, the second-year boys, finishing up a Quidditch match, were dismayed to find an extra door off the hall of the common room.

"'Girls' dormitory'...???" Pierre was speechless as he read the house number on it.At this moment, the door opened suddenly, causing him to instinctively jump to the side—"Lola?"

"good afternoon!"

The girl greeted him, then glanced at the crowd behind, and froze, while a bunch of hot, shirtless boys frantically began to put their naked clothes back on.

"—That's my vest!!"

"Wait, don't pull my pants!"

"...I'm going to tidy things up, excuse me!" The girl ran away in despair.

After closing the door, Lola finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Before the seventh floor is refurbished, she will temporarily live here—compared to the one that used to have the entire floor to itself, this place is indeed pitifully small.However, this room is clean and tidy, with good lighting and ventilation, and a separate bathroom, which can be regarded as the treatment of a prefect.

"As the only girl in the school, I really enjoyed preferential treatment before!"

Lola put the new textbooks, paper and pens into the book bag with a self-deprecating look. Her original textbooks, picture books, and even school uniforms were all soaked in water—the nasty permanent charm prevented any method of drying and drying, and those The damp and dirty water ruined most things, including her unfinished painting class homework.

Fortunately, some valuable jewelry and clothing (such as the cloak from grandpa, the ribbon from Anos) were put in the suitcase (with waterproof function) by her and survived.The precious books sent by the father have already been brought into the secret study room, and put on the bookshelf under the direction of the portrait.

The elf Cary carefully sorted out the remaining items from the ruins (potion bottles, telescopes, water glasses, etc.), and sent them over after repairing them.

"Not too bad, huh!"

Lola comforted herself, and arranged these miscellaneous things neatly. The only thing she regretted was the letter from Sally Ann—the ink inside was so smudged that it was difficult to distinguish the handwriting, and it could not be repaired.

Wrap the envelope with a handkerchief, and put the notes given by Anos (fortunately, the cover is waterproof), and shreds of the roaring letter into the cardboard box. The girl waved the magic spell and cast a water-avoiding spell. Fireproof spell.

"...What am I thinking about!"

She shook her head, feeling that she was too extreme, waterproof and fireproof, could it be that her life was really so troubled?Just when she was thinking about divination, a small glass bottle rolled to the ground, and when she picked it up, there was very little of the transparent 'super-heavy water' inside.

Lola stared at the glass vial thoughtfully, and then chanted a windproof spell at the carton—after a while, the liquid in the 'super-heavy water' was slightly cloudy, and a thin, almost invisible white Smoke came out of the gap in the rubber cork and drifted out of the window, but the 'super-heavy water' in the vial didn't change much.

Lola put the vial on the desk, and looked at the scroll of papers, on which was written a line of title - "On the Resonance of Magnetic Crystals and Magic Power".

During dinner, all the students in the school knew about the flooding of the dormitory. Under the discussion and concentrated attention of everyone, Lola ate the food on the plate in silence.Andos and the others didn't know how to comfort them, so they had to push the girl's favorite food towards her. After a while, all kinds of stews and desserts were piled up in front of Lola.

Lola looked up, saw the worried expressions of her companions, and forced a smile, "Don't worry, I'm fine. The student union has notified me that it will give me some subsidies based on the loss, and will redecorate the seventh floor to my liking. look, so..."

"This is outrageous!" Pierre was indignant, the good room turned into a ghost, and no one would be happy if it was changed, "It completely violated the students' independent right to privacy."

"My brother said that the student union decided it was a nasty prank." Tully said of his first-hand knowledge. "Someone connected the water pipe in the bathroom on the seventh floor to the frozen lake, and then the lake water poured into the room."

"But the girls' dormitory has a password, and only Lola knows it. How did those guys get in?" Vichy looked puzzled. He had seen the girl read the password with his own eyes.

Lola was also very puzzled. She had just changed the password a few days ago, so no one should know about it.

"If you don't know the password, it doesn't mean you can't get in. You can think of other ways."

"……window!"

"That's right, it's the window." Tully took a gulp of apple juice proudly. "According to the person in charge of the investigation, there is a mud footprint on the window sill of the side hall, which is the same as the mud on the river beach."

"Then how did they get there?" Dai asked curiously, and Pierre answered first, "It's not easy, you can just go in with a broomstick."

"Did no one find out?"

"Obviously not, not even the elf noticed."

"Anyway, this is too much!" Vichy frowned, "I really don't understand why they would do this."

"Probably because I don't like it." Lola thought of the walls full of 'get out of school', 'mudblood' and other vicious and rude words, "but obviously, I won't be deterred by that."

"Of course you don't need to transfer schools, I'm here!" Pierre blurted out, then glanced at Anos restrainedly, "I mean, the few of us!"

All the boys nodded.

"That's right, you are safe now." Adrian said seriously, "The prefect's room is just across from you, you can find me if you need anything."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, this is my duty."

"So," Anos, who had been keeping quiet all this time, suddenly said, "Who did it?"

"Could it be Morphy and Eisen?" Pierre expressed his doubts, "The two of them always find opportunities to laugh at Lola, which is very annoying."

"Probably not," Adrienne shook his head. "Their IQs can't cast the permanent retention spell, and someone saw them staying in the room today, and Eisen even asked the elf to bring lunch into the room."

"Then who else?" Pierre scratched his head in distress.

"Lola?" Anos looked at the girl.

Seeing everyone looking at her, Lola pursed her lips, "There is someone, but I have no proof."

"Wolf Ram?"

The girl looked at Anos in surprise.

"Except for that ball game, we didn't have any contact with the third grade." Adri didn't agree. "Besides, he didn't need it. Lola didn't have anything to offend him."

"It seems so, but he was too hostile in the confrontation match - he hit the ball to Lola several times, even though she was not the goalkeeper." Anos saw that his words made everyone ponder, and turned to Looking at Lola, "Maybe it's not him, but we can't let our guard down."

At this moment, Alexei came over, "Hey, Lola, are you okay?"

Seeing the girl nodding, the boy breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't hold back if you have anything to do, if there is anyone suspicious, just tell me—" As he spoke, he looked around the audience, and the volume suddenly increased, "I am here Issue a warning, if anyone dares to play tricks again, don't blame me for being rude!"

The originally bustling restaurant quieted down, and Lola stared blankly at Alexei's words to defend herself, feeling warm in her heart.

"That's right, if you have any dissatisfaction, just say it clearly, what kind of skill is it to sneak into the girl's room and make trouble!" Pierre howled, and then Adri gave him a sharp look, "Senior Romanov, on behalf of me The whole second year is very grateful to you, but this matter is best handled through the Student Council."

"I know," Alexei blinked at Lola, "Matvey felt that he was careless and negligent at this time, so under his agitation, the whole thing will be thoroughly investigated again—Wofford thought It's not that easy to call it a farce."

"Are you reconciled?"

"He and I are brothers, what's good or bad?" Alexey smiled, and then said to Pierre, "Tomorrow's flight training will be harder, so don't be late."

"Yes, deputy team."

"Also," Alexei looked at the others, "I heard that Lola lives in the second-year dormitory now, you can't harass her!"

"Senior, don't worry, I will always protect her!"

Andos answered very smoothly, making Lola's face slowly turn red - she quickly picked up the cranberry juice, but because she drank it too quickly, she kept coughing.

"Don't be nervous, since the 'Princess of the North' already has its own 'Knight Order'." Alexei showed his trademark sunny smile, "Then I can be considered a Knight Commander anyway."

"???" Lola and the boys had question marks all over their faces.

??

After evening self-study, Lola came to the porch of the library alone. The "overweight water" in the fountain pool was colorless and transparent. She stood by the water and carefully looked at the dark stones, then locked her eyes on the center of the pool—a A rhombus-shaped stone is emitting a faint purple light.

Then she took off her shoes and socks and dived into the water. Her white and tender feet felt a slight pain from stepping on the irregular gravel, but she still identified and walked slowly towards the center of the pool until she bent down and held the stone in her hand.Then the other hand inserted the wand into the water and stirred it, and soon the water surface became cloudy, flocculent magical energy surged in one direction as if self-conscious, and then a red light flashed at the other end of the pool.

[it is as expected. ]

Lola looked down at the ore still shining with faint purple light in her hand, and as she was clumsily moving towards the shore step by step, someone behind her suddenly spoke:

"Haven't you learned the Flying Curse?"

Lola was startled, and saw Quese Helk looking at her contemptuously—as a seventh grade student, she was free to leave the campus on weekends, but when she came back, she saw the stupid junior stuck in the pool , it's really hard to ignore - especially since the curfew has started at this point.

"I have learned, but I can't get it." Lola lowered her head. She has never dared to look at the boss of the beast riding club. His eyes are too cold and sharp, even though he saved her, and more than once , "As soon as the spell comes into contact with 'super-heavy water', it will be absorbed."

"'Super heavy water'?" Helk looked suspiciously at the pool, raised his hand, and the glowing red ore jumped to the shore by itself, "Read more books, don't lose face of the Beast Riding Society. "

After throwing down such a sentence, the 'Black Boss' left on his own.

Lola was very inexplicable about the reason why she was despised—why didn’t I love reading? !I spend every day in the library!

After finally getting ashore, Lola looked at the soles of her feet, and saw dense blood spots oozing through the skin, causing her to gasp in pain.After a simple hemostatic spell, she put back her shoes and socks, put two magic ores in her pocket, and disappeared into the corridor with the night.

-------------------------------------------------- -----------

Note 1? "On the Resonance of Magnetic Crystals and Magic Power" - one of the subjects of Charms, refers to the fact that most crystals have the property of absorbing and storing magic power. Because they are passive attributes, the magic power in them is very weak .

Note 2? "Superheavy water"/(magic storage liquid) - a colorless, transparent, high-quality, insoluble liquid that can absorb mana and transform it into ore storage.

The author has something to say:

Questions about kailiwq

"Why don't you go fishing with your shoes on? You should be able to use a waterproof spell or something."

答:

"Super-heavy water" is not water. When it comes into contact with any spell, it will absorb the magic power in it, so the waterproof spell is ineffective for it.

Because Lola’s dormitory was flooded, she only had one pair of shoes left. After being stained with “overweight water”, she had to rinse it with clean water. The next day, she had to wear damp shoes to class (the quick-drying spell can only dry leather boots surface water).

Of course, she can also recite the spell on the shoes covered with "super-heavy water" to make it evaporate into white smoke, but the imprint of magic will also be reflected on the ore again, making her have to go fishing again.

Another extended explanation-after the boots are covered with "overweight water", if nothing is dealt with, then a string of footprints will be left on the ground, which is easy for the patrolling prefect to notice.

In addition, the second chanting of the spell may cause the mana to be introduced into the same ore through "super-heavy water" (for example, if Lola goes ashore, puts her own red ore into the water again, and then puts her red ore into the water against the "Super heavy water" spell), but this depends on the size of a wizard's mana and its purity. When the ore reaches the saturation value, it will no longer absorb excess mana - this is also the case in the boys' competition , some people are three stars, some people are three and a half stars (see Chapter 24 for details).

Finally, I would like to add, why is Quesai Helk able to cast spells in "super-heavy water"?

In the upper grade courses, you can learn the magic spell similar to 'air barrier'. Helk's trick actually includes no staff spell + silent spell + flying spell + floating spell + moving spell... In short, The seventh grade is not for nothing
