Raven's Claw at Hogwarts

Chapter 152
The annual Valentine's Day is coming again. Under the operation of the restless Professor Lockhart, the great hall and library of Hogwarts are decorated with countless pink flowers into a pink world.

Not only that, but I don't know how Lockhart did it. He even hired a large group of goblins, put them on golden wings conjured by magic, and held harps or bows and arrows, dressed as Cupid, the god of love. look.

These 'Cupids' wandered around the Hogwarts castle in groups, sending love letters according to the list that Lockhart had prepared long ago, and there will also be a live reading program with a soundtrack.

Of course, these love letters are all real. As early as last month, Lockhart announced that he can send love letters on Valentine's Day, and also claimed that this can surprise the person he likes.Under the call of Lockhart's fame, many people wrote anonymously.

But to be honest, Lockhart's well-planned Valentine's Day event is more of a shock than a surprise.

After all, the ugly appearance of the goblin and the appearance of Cupid, the god of love, are really eye-catching.

But these goblins are also very dedicated, and they will never give up until the recipient has listened to the letter, which makes many people very distressed.

And Harry was one of those distressed people.

Mike looked at the goblin who was playing music and reading a love letter in the hall, and Harry who was covering his ears in pain, and let out a gleeful laugh.

Mike is also considered a half-known figure at Hogwarts. It stands to reason that there should be quite a few people who send him love letters. This can be seen from the pile of chocolates and love letters he received at Christmas.

However, since Lockhart was just beaten up by him two days ago, Lockhart deliberately bypassed Mike this Valentine's Day, which allowed Mike to sit here calmly and laugh at Harry.

At this moment, Harry, who was covering his ears with a face full of despair, also saw Mike in the crowd, his emerald green pupils shrank sharply, and then he shouted anxiously: "Mike! Do something!"

Seeing that Harry had found him, Mike also restrained his smile, raised his wand and pointed at the fairies.

"Lock tongue (a spell that can make someone speechless)."

I saw a nearly transparent white light beam flying towards the two goblins, and when it was about to hit one of the goblins, it split quickly and turned into two thinner light beams that hit the two goblins respectively. Two goblins.

The auditorium fell silent immediately, and those goblins who had been silenced clutched their throats in horror, and fled away as if flying away.

A smile appeared on Mike's face when he saw this.

The tongue-locking spell just now looked simple, but in fact Mike used two spell-casting techniques newly learned from Professor Flitwick.

The first is the multi-casting technique, which is able to release multiple spells at the same time, and wizards who are proficient in using this technique can even release different spells at the same time.

Mike seems to have cast only one Locking Tongue Charm, but in fact he has just cast two Locking Tongue Charms.

And the second technique is to change the direction of the spell. This technique can change the direction of the released beam-shaped spell suddenly, achieving an unexpected effect.

These two spell-casting skills are highly difficult spell-casting skills, which require very high mental power and magic control of the learner. Even with Mike's current huge mental power and magic power control, he has just reached the learning threshold of these two spell-casting skills.

With Mike's current level, releasing two spells at the same time and deflecting the spells with a slight arc in the middle is already the limit.

Seeing that the two goblins had escaped, Harry showed a relieved expression on his face, and thanked Mike: "It's really thanks to you, I was almost annoyed by them all day today."

Mike's eyes moved slightly. He didn't go to training today and waited in the auditorium just to wait for Harry to come to his door.

After becoming suspicious of Percy, Mike also started to investigate the heir. He originally planned to hand over this matter to the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore, but judging from the current situation, the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore Bullido doesn't seem to care about the heir's affairs. It has been several months since the basilisk incident, but there is no news about the heir.

In the original book, the heir of Slytherin is Ginny Weasley. This poor little girl happened to accompany her son Draco to buy new semester equipment when the whole family went to Diagon Alley to buy new semester equipment and disposed of it by the way. Lucius Malfoy of those dark magic items in his own home.

The two powerful families, the Malfoy family and the Weasley family, met each other, and naturally they fought.

Lucius took advantage of the chaos and stuffed a magical black magic notebook into Ginny's book basket.

What is surprising is that the soul of a man named Tom Riddle is actually hidden in this book, and this Tom Riddle is none other than Voldemort.

It was under the instigation of this Tom Riddle that Ginny became the new heir of Slytherin, and was almost reborn after being absorbed by Tom in the end.

After asking Lockhart, Mike learned that the Malfoy family did have a dispute with the Weasley family in the bookstore on the day Lockhart's new book was released, and Lockhart also claimed that he had gone up to try to persuade the fight.

This shows that the book is similar to Ravenclaw's diadem, the Horcrux that can seize people - Tom's notebook should have been in Ginny's hands.

But judging from the heir's continuous basilisk attacking Penello and his own behavior, Percy is more suspicious than his sister Ginny.

"It's a trivial matter." Mike deliberately brought the topic to the Weasleys, "But Ginny's writing is really bad, and I was embarrassed to hear that letter."

"What, what do you mean?"

"Didn't you realize that girl Ginny likes you, and she wrote you the letter that the two goblins read just now." Mike stepped forward and put his arm around Harry's shoulders, whispering in his ear, "Don't believe me Look over there."

Looking in the direction Mike pointed, I saw that Ginny was really hiding in the corner of the auditorium at the moment, holding a copy of the Daily Prophet, pretending to be reading the newspaper, but her eyes glanced at Harry from time to time, and she even took the newspaper in her hand. The reverse was not found.

Seeing Mike and Harry looking at her together, two red clouds appeared on Ginny's face, and she fled out of the auditorium like the two fairies.

Seeing Harry's bewildered look, Mike continued to ask, "What about Ron, why didn't you see him with you today?"

"He was in the Gryffindor lounge telling about his brother Percy's heroic deeds in the dueling contest." Harry was obviously relieved by Mike's sudden change of subject, and even his tone became lighter, "Since Percy After Xi's successful promotion, he talked about it almost every day.

At the beginning, everyone still liked to listen, so he spoke in the auditorium.But after talking too much, now only some Gryffindor classmates are willing to listen. "

A slight smile appeared on Mike's face when he heard the words, and Harry took the initiative to mention Percy, which hit his target.

"Oh? Speaking of which, I really didn't expect Percy to be so powerful." Mike asked pretending to be nonchalant, "Do you know why he suddenly became so powerful?"

Hearing this, Harry showed a weird smile on Mike's face, didn't speak, just stared at Mike with a smile.

It wasn't until Mike felt a little hairy from being stared at by him that Harry elbowed Mike and said meaningfully: "I understand what you mean..."
