HP's Adagio Minor

Chapter 59 [59]

Even though you can't walk around the school during the curfew, the second grade common room is still brightly lit, and the boys are chatting and playing together - Lola saw such a scene as soon as she entered the door. This kind of noisy atmosphere was something she had never felt before. been there.The boys were a little shy about her arrival, and after a brief moment of embarrassment, a few funny things changed the topic.

Lola couldn't help laughing secretly at the boys' extra neat outfits.

After talking and joking for a while, everyone went back to their rooms and went to bed. Lola lay on an unfamiliar bed, tossing and turning. It took an unknown amount of time before she fell asleep in a daze.

The next day, it was still a noisy morning.

"Get up, get up!"

As soon as the alarm clock rang, various strange sounds came from dozens of rooms. When everyone finished washing and put on their school uniforms to go to breakfast, someone suddenly stopped in their tracks—after a while, outside the door of the girls' dormitory A bunch of people gathered.

"Has anyone seen Lola?"

Vichy looked suspiciously at the boys who got up early and drank morning tea on the sofa, "Have you ever seen her come out?"

"No." The boys shook their heads.

"Do you want to knock on the door?" Dai said, "If you don't get up, it will be too late. Today is the morning meeting..."

Boys, look at me and I look at you. After pushing and yelling, Vichy was pushed to the front, "You should have a better relationship with her. Aren't you two partners in herbal medicine class?"

"But..." Vichy looked around hesitantly, but couldn't see the figures of Anos and others.

"Knock quickly, hurry up!"

Amid the urging voices of the crowd, Vichy resolutely slammed the door knocker, and the door opened after two knocks—the girl appeared in everyone's sight with slightly wet hair, her eyes widened in surprise:

"Good morning, Vichy! What's the matter?"

"Um, it's time for us to go to the restaurant, there is a school meeting today..." Vichy explained in a murmur.

"Okay!" Lola grabbed the coat and book bag on the hanger, "I took a shower just now, and I almost forgot the time."

Vichy turned sideways, and the girl's loose hair drew a beautiful golden arc in front of him. The fresh water vapor and the faint fragrance of flowers made him a little dazed for a moment.

"Good morning, Lola!" Tully put down his teacup and straightened his school uniform. "How did you sleep last night?"

"It's not bad, I found that I don't recognize the bed so much." Lola replied with a smile, her rose-pink cheeks made the boys feel that having such a new resident was simply a blessing to get up every day.

"You have a single room all to yourself, Your Highness!" Dai teased, "The feeling of sharing a room with other people may not be so pleasant!"

"What are you talking about! No girl snores!" Vichy followed up, "Besides, no one can fight Lola for the time being."

Several people walked out while talking, Lola was curious, "Why are you alone?"

"Pierre trained early in the morning, and Adrienne is a prefect, so he has to maintain order in the restaurant. By the way, he can also grab a good seat for us, so we can eat ready-made ones later."

"So that's how it is!" Lola suddenly realized, no wonder every time she went to the restaurant, there were all kinds of food on the table, and she didn't have to fight with others.

"As for Anos, he seems to have received an approval slip from Professor Sean this semester, and he will go to the library for morning reading every day."

"Morning?"

"Yeah, with such good grades and working so hard, it really makes us feel ashamed!"

Tully, Dai, Vichy, and Lola all sighed in unison.

"When will our school become a coeducational school!"

Watching the girl walk out of the lounge, someone suddenly sighed, and everyone else stared at him in unison.

"Why, didn't I say it right?!" The boy asked back, but suffered several "friendly blows"——

"No, George, you speak too well!"

"We should jointly sign a letter and ask the school to recruit more girls!"

"Girls who transfer schools are also welcome!"

"That's right!"

??

Since there was no change of clothes, Lola had to wear the only velvet dress in the suitcase, which looked more striking in a black, gray and brown school uniform, and the boys couldn't help but look at it wherever they went A few glances.

The goose-yellow belt made her waist extremely slender, and this breakfast Lola only ate one-third of her usual amount.

"Oh, I'm full!"

Facing the mouth-watering blueberry pie, she resentfully put down her knife and fork.

"What? Don't you have an appetite?" Anos asked with concern, but the girl shook her head, "Just think I'm losing weight—don't you boys like white and thin girls?"

That's what Lola overheard yesterday, when the boys were talking about the type of girl they liked.

"Whoever said that, I like the stronger ones, er..." Pierre's voice slowly trailed off, "Maybe Muggles' aesthetics are not very good."

"Health is the most important thing!" Adrian's answer was quite satisfactory, but Pierre's face was almost buried in the plate.

(I was wrong, I never dare to look at Muggle photos again!)

At the school meeting, Professor Sean made a simple "one-week review" instead of Principal Karkaroff who went out, and then emphasized the school's discipline rules and regulations, and ordered a thorough investigation.

After the school assembly, Mrs. Khametova found Lola,

"During lunch break today, I will accompany you to the town to re-customize school uniforms."

"Thank you very much, ma'am."

If Mrs. Khametova hadn't sent her old clothes from her youth, Lola wouldn't even have pajamas for bed.

"Oh, I wish you could live with me. Unfortunately, the Teacher's Tower has magical restrictions, and only adults are allowed to enter."

"The current room is also very good, and everyone takes good care of me."

The girl's answer made Mrs. Khametova even more distressed, "If you need anything, remember to come to the medical room to find me, or let the elf come to me..."

Lola blushed when she heard the words. She knew what Mrs. Khametova was referring to.

The school uniform is available, but other missing items still have to be mailed.In the letter sent to her family, Lola did not truthfully tell her parents that she was tortured, but only said that it was because a student cast a spell in the air, which just happened to bounce into her room-the reason for such nonsense, the parents They actually took it seriously!

Not only did Sunderland resend a lot of clothes, snacks, and ladies' items, but also the original sheets and bedding of the same style.

[You must not wrong yourself, what else do you need? ]

She repeatedly emphasized in the letter.

And Edgar told his daughter not to take it lightly in the letter, and improved the rebound spell by the way, requiring it to be cast on every window, plus the original door-sealing curse, now let alone people, not even a fly can fly in. .

Only in this way, the owls who delivered the letter could not come in. After being bounced off many times, these clever birds flew directly into the common room from the window at the other end.As a result, a spectacular sight can often be seen in the second-grade lounge—several owls of different fur colors are parked on the crystal chandelier, and there are hills of packages and letters piled up on the carpet below.

In addition to re-plumbing, almost the entire seventh floor had to be torn down and re-done due to the Permabonding and Perpetual Preservation Charms, so Lola had to spend a few extra weeks in the second-year lounge.The boys readily accepted the news. After all, who doesn't like bragging and chatting to the opposite sex? !

Although compared to when I was alone on the seventh floor, I had less free space, but overall, it was not so interesting.Especially when everyone played wildly before going to bed together, scrambled for supper, drank fruit wine secretly, and complained about the eccentricities of the professors——gradually, she became acquainted with the boys in the same grade.

??

In this day's black magic class, due to the request of most of the students, Professor Sean carried out an additional topic.

"...The Patronus Charm is a kind of advanced magic that requires a strong foundation of magic. This is originally a supplementary course for the third grade, but since everyone is interested in it, it doesn't matter if it is done in advance."

When she heard what she was interested in, Lola squeezed her wand excitedly, she couldn't wait!

Just listen to Professor Sean continue to say:

"The Patronus Charm is mostly used to ward off dementors. It is a symbol of the heart, a positive force—hope, happiness, the desire to live, etc.—where the magician needs to concentrate and do his best to recall the soul. The happiest thing is that you can summon your own patron saint... The patron saint acts as a shield between the caster and the dementor, and bears the spiritual attack of the dementor instead—but it cannot act like a real person Feel hopeless, so the dementors can't hurt it."

"Each Patronus is unique, because each person's personality and inner world are different, and the emotions expressed are also different... In addition, the Patronus Charm is also the only known spell that can expel Voldebat... and the body Those in darkness cannot cast this spell."

"We are now learning the rudimentary Patronus Charm. Generally speaking, the form of the rudimentary Patronus will be a silver-white translucent animal. The shape varies from person to person. This is related to the personality and physique of the wizard."

Professor Sean waved his wand to demonstrate, a stream of silver gas spread out from the top of his wand, and finally formed a lynx covered in mist, proudly and vigilantly scanning the children who were looking down at him stupidly , then jumped to the edge of the pillar and disappeared.

"So, professor!" a boy asked, "Are the advanced patron saints also animals? How is it different from the junior ones?"

"A high-level patron saint can not only resist the attacks of dementors, but can also be used for transmission and communication, but only wizards with high mana can cast it... This spell was invented by Albus Dumbledore."

"Wow!"

Everyone exclaimed, and everyone couldn't help being in awe of the most famous and greatest white wizard in modern times.

"The spell of the patron saint is a foreign word, remember, everyone's pronunciation must be standard!"

Under Professor Sean's repeated reminders, everyone held their wands and made gestures on the practice field.

"Calling God Guard—Calling God Guard—"

Lola read it several times, but the wand did not respond. There are not a few people who are as troubled as she is.

"Concentrate on the happiest thing, try again...concentrate on..." Professor Scott said while inspecting.

So, Lola recalled her happiest thing among the noisy crowd-swimming in the sea water full of sunshine temperature?Is it after eating a piece of sweet and delicious puff cake?Or riding a dragon horse and soaring in the sky?

……

"Call God Guardian—"

A dazzling silvery luster flashed from the tip of Lola's wand, and turned into a light, formless mist, which was swallowed and exhaled in the air for a few times, and then slowly disappeared.

The small breakthrough made Lola very happy. She looked around and found that there were a few people around her who were a little bit silvery like her, but even Adrian and Anos, who did the best, didn't mess up. The mist gathers.

"...Everyone can practice more in their spare time, as a bonus item for the practical exam this semester, this spell will affect everyone's evaluation score."

Professor Sean smiled lightly.

??

"That's the way it is..."

Lola nestled on the sofa, and told the portrait everything about today's class, "Although I tried my best to think of some happy things, the fog was still a little—oh, Ruddy, do you have any ideas? Can this spell be improved?"

"There is no shortcut, Lola." The portrait shook his head, "The Patronus Charm is a spell that reflects the heart, you can only practice more on your own, or you can learn some meditation from your divination professor Kind of, to strengthen your concentration."

"I'd like to, too, but I'm running out of time—I have an art homework due this Friday, but I haven't drawn anything, and the original one was almost finished."

"It's finished, but I can't escape the fate of being flooded!" The aria of the portrait is particularly teasing. Under the girl's glaring gaze, it smiled apologetically, "Actually, painting can also exercise one's concentration...you Why not try to magnify your senses, focus on something happy, and paint a picture?"

"Amplify the senses...to experience in more detail..."

Lola silently read a few suggestions from the portrait, and decided to find a chance to give it a try.

Stepping on the curfew, the girl walked into the common room of the second grade, but found that there was no one in the common room - the noisy boys, because the prefect's night watch ended early, all went to bed obediently.

"call……"

Lola breathed a sigh of relief, she just thought of many reasons for coming back late!

Just after she flashed into the room, a carved door at the opposite corner was gently closed.

"What's the matter?" Vichy was awakened by a glimmer of light, and asked in a daze.

On the side, Dai was covered under the blanket, muttering a few words and turning over.

"It's nothing." Anos picked up the book on the floor and put it back on Tully's bedside table, then turned off the fluorescent lights, "Go to sleep."

Afterwards, the room was silent.
