Kate was speechless for a while, so she pulled her and whispered, "I have some things to go home to deal with, so I can't go to Christmas. I haven't told Hermione about this yet, so please..."

"You want me to keep it a secret?" Qiu Zhang put her hands on her hips helplessly, and couldn't help but tap her forehead lightly, "Kate, you should understand how much your little Qingmei wants to go on a study tour with you, right?"

It's okay to hide it from her and others, but I didn't expect that even Hermione would hide it from her.

She could imagine Hermione's little disappointed expression when she didn't see Kate on the train.

"Xiaoqiu, please..."

Kate really had nothing to do, so she pulled her sleeves and begged for mercy in a low voice, "I will definitely tell her after the registration deadline, it's just that you can hide it from me for a few days, just a few days!"

If you say it now, maybe Hermione will force him to go to Professor McGonagall to sign up, and all previous efforts will be wasted by then.

"...you!" Qiu Zhang increased his strength and poked her on the forehead, with a look of hatred for iron.

"But in terms of our friendship, I don't have to take the initiative to mention this to Hermione in these three days, but if Hermione asks me, then I won't lie to her, understand?"

Kate raised her smiling face and hugged her tightly with open arms: "That's enough! I knew that Xiao Qiu was kind-hearted, and she would definitely not help me!"

Suddenly being embraced by her, Qiu Zhang was taken aback for a moment, and his hands naturally wrapped around her waist, tightening even more.

I don't know if she is considered to have forgotten her friends after seeing her.

……

The time soon came to the second week of December, which was the last day to submit the consent form.

Professor Ge was a little surprised when he received Kate's belated letter of intent to go home, "Miss Safik, don't you want to go on a study tour together?"

As far as she knew, the route of this study tour was determined by Kate and Dumbledore together.

"Yeah, because there are a lot of things to do at home."

Kate had the weary smile of a precocious teenage girl who has to keep around the house.

There was a bit of pity in Mag's eyes, "Thank you for your hard work, you have to take care of housework at such a young age."

"This is what I should do, not to mention hard work."

She smiled, bowed to Mag, and walked out of the office.

At eight o'clock in the evening, when the registration was completely closed, she could confess to Hermione.

Although Hermione was really sorry for hiding this from Hermione, it was something she had made up her mind to do, and it was useless to regret it.

When the time comes, Hermione will accept whatever scolding or beating she has.

Kate originally thought so, but as soon as she left the office, she bumped into Snape who was oncoming.

"Hello, Headmaster!" she called out politely, and saw Snape standing in front of her in his robes with the blower clip on.

The usually stiff and gloomy face stared at her thoughtfully for a while: "The letter of intent has been handed in."

"Yes, does the dean have any instructions?" Kate asked with some confusion.

Snape leaned over slightly, the smell of potion all over his body made Kate subconsciously frown.

"Just got a letter from Rand Jones asking you to go on a Christmas study tour too."

"What?" Kate's eyes widened.

Watching Snape walk into the office, he came out with the letter of intent she had just handed in after a while, and handed it to her.

Kate was not in a hurry to pick it up, but still asked in disbelief: "Why? I've already talked to the housekeeper..."

Before she could finish her sentence, she reacted abruptly.

How could the old housekeeper know about her condition at school?

The only one who could tell him everything here was Dumbledore, his former comrade in arms.

In other words, this is what Lao Deng meant.

But why did Dumbledore ask the old butler to write such a consent form without even saying hello, or did he ask Snape to bring it over?

"Dean," Kate raised her head, "How many students have signed up for the Christmas study tour before the deadline?"

Snape narrowed his eyes slightly, and reported lightly: "Excluding you, there are only seven people who did not participate, because they all have other affairs at home."

There are so many people?

Even Kate didn't expect that so many parents would agree with their children to go outside for some study activities on Christmas.

This is Christmas, which is as significant as the Chinese New Year in Europe and America.

At first, Kate just wanted to facilitate the placement of students like Harry who had nowhere to go other than the college, but unexpectedly so many people came.

Maybe it's because this is the first time in the world, so it's so lively.

From this point of view, if you don't participate for no reason, it may really arouse some doubts.

Although she was not notified, there was nothing wrong with Dumbledore's approach.

It's a big deal to find an excuse to slip away at that time.

"I understand, thank you, Dean." She took the letter of intent to go home, and tore it in half. "I will board the train on time."

With that said, he turned and left under Snape's slightly surprised eyes.

"How?" Dumbledore came out from the corner corridor, "The child trusts me as much as I trust her."

Although occasionally she will pretend to be a little ignorant, but as long as she knows that her heart is good, she can act as she likes.

Snape's face paled slightly: "Then I hope you didn't see the wrong person this time."

"I hope so too." Dumbledore pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said with a smile, "Let's go, it's time to go to the auditorium to announce the list of Christmas study trips."

Chapter 31 Four people share a bed

Came to the auditorium as if nothing had happened, Kate sat down calmly, glanced at Malfoy opposite, then moved her eyes away.

It had been a while, but she and Malfoy hadn't spoken since that day.

Even Pansy and Blaise seemed to have been warned in advance and never asked her about it.

After a while, Dumbledore, Snape and McGonagall came in together.

"Everyone," Dumbledore said with a list in his hand, "as of eight o'clock tonight, the registration for the Christmas study tour will be closed.

I am very happy that so many students are interested in this activity.

Next, I will ask Professor McGonagall to announce the list of students who did not participate in this activity, and ask these students to submit a letter of intent to go home to Professor McGonagall after dinner. "

Professor McGonagall took the list in his hand and read it one by one.

During this period, Kate noticed that some eyes fell on her, and when she looked back, she happened to meet Qiu Zhang's eyes on the Ravenclaw long table.

The names of more than a dozen classmates were quickly read out, but Kate's name was not there.

Qiu Zhang's gaze suddenly became weird, but Kate winked at her playfully.

The man finally changed his mind.

She pursed her lips silently, silently withdrew her gaze, and unconsciously twirled her robe with her fingers.

Great to live with Kate for Christmas too.

On the stage, after Professor McGonagall finished talking about the basics of going home, Dumbledore spoke again: "The Christmas tour will last for twelve days, during which Professor Snape and Professor Flitwick will lead a team to guide you on a four-day tour of England. regions.

Due to the need to live outside, please prepare enough daily clothes and supplies for the [-]-day study tour in time.

And, from now on, everyone is looking for three classmates who share the same bed, regardless of the school and grade.

You can register with Professor Flitwick until the day before the study tour, and those who report after the time will be assigned by the professor himself. "

As soon as these words came out, the entire auditorium erupted.

There are no restrictions on colleges and grades, that is to say, as long as they are of the same sex, they can meet and live together at will, which has never happened since the school was founded!

Dumbledore looked at the excited students on the stage, smiled and waited for them to discuss for a while, then coughed lightly and said: "Everyone can go back tonight and think slowly, but now, you can eat something first! "

After all, countless delicacies appeared on the table, which made all the students excited again.

"Hey," Pansy patted Kate quietly, "Although I guess you should have an appointment, but I still want to ask, are you interested in adding me to the Christmas study tour?"

Kate glanced at Malfoy, and found that he still looked like he had nothing to do with himself. He was engrossed in eating, and immediately smiled: "Sorry, four people are full."

"Sure enough." Pan Xi shrugged helplessly, turned around and started to ask others.

Although she didn't know how a little girl in Malfoy could find three boys to live with, she thought that Lucius should have a way to get her out alone.

Kate was eating bread thoughtfully when she was suddenly patted behind her.

Looking back a little strangely, he met Shang Qiuzhang's meaningful eyes: "A certain person said before that he couldn't go on a study tour."

"I changed my mind temporarily." Kate raised her eyebrows and smiled, "The three of you are with me, why don't you go?"

Qiu Zhang snorted and patted her on the head: "You are right no matter what."

With that said, he and his companions left quickly.

Subconsciously touching the place where she was "beaten", Kate couldn't help laughing.

As soon as he turned his head, he saw that Malfoy was still stuffed with food in his mouth, and his eyes were staring at her with a cannibalistic look.

"Is there something on my face?" Kate touched the rest of her face strangely.

But hearing Malfoy snort, he got up and walked away without finishing his food.

Could it be that she is jealous that she can sleep with girls?

No way, the dignified Miss Malfoy, would you care about this?

Then why?

Kate scratched her face, expressing that she had no idea what a girl of her age was thinking.

After leaving the auditorium, she was pulled over by Hermione who was already waiting at the door.

"Kate, I made an agreement with my roommate, you can live with us!" Hermione said excitedly, and there were a few Gryffindor girls standing behind her.

Oops, forgot to tell Hermione that she had discussed it with Cho Chang.

Kate pulled her to her side with some embarrassment, and whispered: "I asked Qiu Zhang before, and she said that she and Luna would like to be with us."

"They?" Hermione's face changed slightly, "Why didn't you tell me in advance?"

She was not prepared to participate in this event before!

Forget it, after all, it was her impromptu decision, and Kate could only compromise: "If you don't want to, then live with your roommates, I'll live with them..."

"No!" Hermione's whole face was about to collapse, her hands tightly hugged her arms, "Then...then we will live with you!"

The girl's intuition told her that Kate and Qiu Zhang Luna must not be alone together!

Kate was taken aback, and asked weakly: "Then your roommates won't have any objections?"

"I'll just go and talk to them!" Hermione tightened her face, let her go and walked over quickly.

Not knowing what to say, Kate only saw her roommates laughing happily, while Hermione came over with a blushing face, and tightly held her arm.

"I've already agreed, they have no objection!"

It really doesn't look like a problem...

Kate looked hesitantly at the laughing girls, always feeling that Hermione told them something terrible.

"What did you tell them?" she asked strangely.

Why didn't I realize before that Hermione still has a talent for telling jokes.

Unexpectedly, Hermione's already flushed little face was even more red and almost transparent at the moment.

She pushed Kate hard, "Anyway...you don't need to know! We just made an appointment, and we will register tomorrow!"

After all, he took the roommates who were watching the theater and ran away together.

Kate looked confused.

It's fine if you don't tell her, why push her?

She is obviously a girl herself, so why can't she understand other girls?

"I think it might be better if you ask her if she would be happy living together." Luna's erratic voice came from behind.
