Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 585 Redundant

   "What are you guys doing?"

The door was suddenly opened, and a cold air poured into the warm yellow room from outside. Isobel walked in with a book, closed the door behind his back, looked up at the two people whispering together at the table, and looked towards the fireplace He walked to the small round table next to him, leaned his head over Albert's shoulder, and looked at the photo album on the table.

   "Tom's photo."

  Albert glanced sideways at Isobel, who rested his chin on his shoulder, and pointed to a few photos that had just been treated with the visible potion. The fat cat in the photos was being rubbed back and forth on the carpet.

   "Tom is getting fatter!"

   Isobel smiled and pressed his face against it, Albert couldn't help shivering from the cold.

"When I was young, Tom was actually very thin. Since I came to Hogwarts, no one took care of him, and his diet became unhealthy, so he became a little fat cat." Albert stretched out his left hand to Isobel Keeping warm, the right hand turned the photo album to the front. It was a photo taken by Albert who had just adopted Tom, a small British shorthair cat. It is hard to imagine how it will change when it grows up.

   "The change is really great." Isobel said softly: "It's hard to see that those photos are the same cat."

   As she spoke, she let go of Albert's left hand, took out the wand from her pocket, and flicked it lightly, refilling the copper pot by the fireplace with water, hanging it on the fireplace to boil.

  Hogwarts is very cold in winter, and the two of them used to drink a cup of hot tea to warm their bodies.

   "This year's Christmas holiday, are you going back?" Albert pushed the photo album to Katrina, and reached for the letter in his pocket.

   "That kind of thing happened this year, probably not many students are willing to stay in school for Christmas vacation." Isobel waved his magic wand again to conjure tea sets, preparing to make cups of instant milk tea for all three of them.

"Thanks."

Katrina closed the album, took the teacup from Isobel, took a sip of the hot milk tea and said, "Uncle Mogg sent us a letter a while ago, inviting us to his manor for the Christmas holiday. Are you going to the manor for Christmas holidays this year too?"

   "I haven't decided whether to go or not, but Mr. Mogg's invitation has been received before."

   "Actually, I don't understand one thing. Why does Uncle Mogg invite you to the manor for vacation every year? Is this really trying to match you and your sister?" Katrina looked at Albert up and down and muttered in confusion.

  She has never been able to understand why her uncle is so keen on doing this kind of thing.

  When she saw Albert in the manor, Katrina was really surprised.

  However, what Katrina didn't know was that the manor was almost named Anderson, and even the house elves had formally pledged their allegiance to Albert. Isobel was also an insider on this matter, only Katrina was kept in the dark.

   It's just that Albert and Isobel didn't tell the truth, so as not to embarrass Katrina when she found out.

  No way, who made her just incidental.

  Albert actually didn’t plan to go to the manor for the Christmas holiday. His family wrote to him telling him that the whole family would spend the winter abroad together during the Christmas holiday.

  Uncle Charlie’s pearl milk tea was very popular, and he made a lot of money. He generously gave Albert a large share. After consulting Albert, Daisy decided to use part of the pound to supplement his travel expenses.

  So, the whole family went to Italy to spend the Christmas holiday, and tasted authentic Italian food by the way.

  Many British people like to travel.

  Albert also wanted to invite Isobel to go with him, but considering that Katrina was still here, he planned to mention this matter another day.

   However, it is still unknown whether Isobel will agree to participate.

  Isobel saw that Albert had something to say to her, but it seemed that because Katrina was nearby, he didn't say it directly.

  However, even if Albert didn't plan to say it now, she still had a way to know what the other party was thinking in the first place.

  As a brilliant contemplation master, Isobel could see the other party's thoughts at a glance when Albert's mind was undefended.

   She was quite happy that Albert invited her to travel to the Muggle world together and planned to introduce her to his family, but the girl didn't immediately agree.

   She hesitated!

   It’s not that she’s worried about not being able to get along well with Albert’s family. As a master of memory, she can easily read other people’s thoughts, and she can easily find a way to get along with other people just by using her brain.

   However, she is still worried about her family.

  Mrs. McDougal has been very busy. Since the death of her husband, Mr. Blair, almost half of her energy has been devoted to treating patients, especially after both sisters went to Hogwarts to study.

  Christmas is a rare reunion, and Isobel doesn't want to miss it.

   Albert was a little disappointed by Isobel's polite refusal. He originally wanted to take Isobel to the Muggle world, but now he can only give up this idea temporarily.

  Looking at the two people looking at each other affectionately, Katrina felt that the atmosphere around her was inexplicably awkward, she quietly tidied up the books and parchments on the table, and quickly left the Room of Requirement, leaving it for the two of them.

   Unexpected things always happen from time to time.

That night, Albert received a tired gray owl, and Miss Louise from France actually sent him an invitation letter, or it should be said that Mr. Delacour's invitation, his son Hebrew To get married, invite Albert to that wedding.

To be honest, when Albert found out that this was a wedding invitation letter, he was actually a little confused. He had only met Mr. Delacour from France a few times. That's all, barely acquaintances, not even friends.

  The relationship with Louise is only a pen pal, and they have been busy with the basilisk recently, and Albert's contact with other wizards has also decreased.

   Moreover, it is not easy for an underage wizard to attend a wizard's wedding across the country alone. It is hard to say whether he will be able to find a specific location at that time.

Of course, Mr. Delacour is obviously aware of this. Among all the invited people, Albert is the most special one. He is underage and cannot use magic at will. It is better to invite other relationships Guests who are invited as peers.

  So, he helped Albert arrange things early.

   This matter is actually very simple, because many "old friends" Albert knows have received invitations, and they can travel with them when the time comes.

  Albert did not plan to attend the wedding, after all, the two parties were unfamiliar, not to mention that he had already planned to go to Italy with his family during the Christmas holiday.

However, Mogg and the others seemed to have anticipated his thoughts, and hoped that Albert could attend the wedding. Mr. Delacour is also a famous potion master and is very influential in the French magic circle. There must be many people there. Going back to attend the wedding, Albert can take the opportunity to expand his network, and they also plan to find opportunities to gradually push Albert to the foreground.

   There is no update tomorrow, I will see if I have time the day after tomorrow. I have important things to do in these two days, so please ask for leave first.
