Hufflepuff never works overtime

"Ah, sneeze." Sucking her reddened nose, Faith tried to draw her neck into the cloak, but the cold wind kept pouring in from her neckline without a scarf.

Subconsciously, she put her hands on her neck, but she didn't think about the gloves she was playing with Hermione in the snow just now. Only the inside was warm, and the outer layer of fur was mixed with melted water vapor, which made her shiver.

She didn't know where she had dropped her scarf, it seemed like she couldn't find it after a Quidditch practice two weeks ago.

"Hermione...so slow."

Faith was standing in the foyer with her suitcase, and Hermione's luggage was placed beside her - the other party saw Ron and Harry playing wizard chess in the auditorium, so they decided to have a fight with her little friends call.

Like the vast majority of teachers and children, they chose to go home to enjoy the long Christmas holiday and prepare for the second semester of classes at the same time.

As the cold outside continued to seep in through the open door, the hot breath from her mouth made her glasses foggy. After waiting for a short time, Faith took her luggage and hid in the auditorium.

Compared with the cold and windy entrance hall, it can be said that it is very warm here. She even saw that the two boys were not wearing coats.

Judging from the fact that they have no luggage beside them, and they are still playing chess in a leisurely manner, they are probably planning to stay in school for Christmas and New Year's Eve.

Hermione didn't pay attention to herself, her little brown head got together with the other three people, one black and one red, plotting some other evil idea.

Anyway, because of Zongsi after leaving the academy, even the little lion couldn't do anything wrong—as for the two boys who stayed in the school?Faith said that was none of her business.

But when it came to Zongsi's restriction, Feise hesitated and took out the magic wand in her arms.

Shall I try again before leaving the academy?After all, there is more than half a month before the next return to school. Recently, Tohmin almost stayed in the library, and she checked a lot of information about the spell-breaking movement.

"Face, I kept you waiting."

Finally, after sending Christmas blessings to the two boys, the lion cub, who had wrapped herself up tightly, ran towards her with a smile——she saw the eye-catching blond hair at a glance, which seemed to be the stove in the auditorium The fire was so hot that Hermione's face was flushed with heat.

"Why did you come in? Is it too cold outside?"

Seeing the other party nodding, Hermione took off her gloves, put her warm hands on Faith's neck, frowned and said, "You'll freeze if you go out like this, or use my scarf Well, I'm a little too hot right now."

"It's fine,"

Faise hastily stopped the other party, because the temperature difference between cold and hot is too great for her to catch a cold easily.

"I've been in there for a while and it's warmed up a lot. By the way, Hermione, do you want to try to break the spell again while you can still use your wand?"

"Okay," Hermione shrugged indifferently. They would make some attempts from time to time, but they didn't succeed once. Although Faise always acted guilty, she was not really worried about this matter. thing.

"Phew," Xirui took a deep breath, "Release One Obliviate/Finite Obliviate/"

The content and movements of the spell were familiar to both of them. This time, she tried to add some movements of turning her wrists.

Unlike the previous few times, Hermione seemed to see some faint blue light flashing on the top of the wand, but it seemed that they only appeared for a moment, and disappeared before she had time to confirm whether it was real or not.

"how do you feel?"

Finding that the other party was staring at her in a daze, Faise asked nervously and expectantly, "Did you remember anything?"

"Actually... I just feel a little sleepy all of a sudden," Hermione said uncertainly after recovering from a trance, "It may also be that I read the book too late last night,"

"Really..." Faith sighed, she was almost used to this kind of frustration.

Maybe she can ask the rabbi about breaking the curse this time when she goes back. Unfortunately, if Dad didn't fall asleep during the spell class that taught the solution, his understanding should be able to help her a lot.

"Don't be discouraged!"

Hermione poked the other person's face and said with a smile, "I feel like I'm very close to success this time."

"Hmm," Faith put her wand back into her cloak, frowned and turned her wrist, and complained helplessly, "I think I'm going to get a wand wrist. With these delicate operations, even the stirring work in Potions class cannot be stopped for a moment."

"Ah, then you can put the suitcase on top of my suitcase, it's not too tiring to drag it anyway."

While talking, Hermione took her suitcase from Faise's hand, "Anyway, you can have a good rest this long vacation, did you bring Sonny home?"

"Yeah, I wasn't too sure about leaving him alone at school, though he got to know the house-elves well--before I knew it."

"Okay, let's go, otherwise it will be embarrassing if we don't catch the train in a while."

"Hmm." Faith glanced at the clock at the door, they really had to hurry up.

After leaving the castle, the howling cold wind hit her face mercilessly. Except for the glasses that could act as a little windshield, the rest of the exposed parts protested to herself. Faise couldn't control herself. I shuddered.

Hiss...it's really cold, remember to ask the rabbi to find a new scarf for me when I go back.

"He said it's okay, here, I'll give you half," the scarf with the body temperature of the other party suddenly wrapped around her bare neck, the warm feeling made Faise squint her eyes, she shrank her neck and let her lower body Half his face was hidden in the protection of the scarf.

Since it was used by two people together, the originally slightly long scarf barely went around a circle, and a short part hung behind.

Hermione looked at the other party's eagerness to surround her head with a funny look, "I told you a long time ago, don't take off the scarf just because you are lazy, and you can't find it now."

"I feel prickly because of the wool...it's uncomfortable to wear."

"Can't you wear a woolen scarf?" Hermione frowned, she seemed to be thinking about something, and her expression seemed a little embarrassed.

"It's not that you can't take it at all, it's all given to me, you can't take it back now."

Faise covered her half with both hands, looked at the other party pretending to be defensive, and then got a big white eye.

The little lion raised his eyebrows triumphantly, "Bring it on, you will be one of our Gryffindors!"

The author's words:

The Christmas chapter begins~

Ah, it’s great to be able to write originals again. Every time I want to refer to the original part, I have to check a lot of information. The Philosopher’s Stone is almost ruined by me...

Chapter 55

"What?" Faith turned sideways to Hermione and tugged at the school badge on her chest, the corners of her mouth covered by the scarf raised high, with a smile that couldn't be concealed in her eyes, "Loyalty is the hallmark of our academy." Characteristic, dear Miss Granger, even if my neck gives in, my heart belongs to Hufflepuff!"

"Hmph, sophistry."

Hermione really wanted to record the other party's current face, and show it to Miriam and Tarsila after the vacation was over. This was the true face of their roommates!

She was dragging a lot of things in her hands, but she walked faster than Faith's pace, and said with a proud expression.

"Unlike you fickle guy, I'm a real Gryffindor, and Mom and Dad said in their letters that they were proud of me."

Faith pursed her lips, raised her eyebrows and said, "Yes, Mrs. Granger must be eager to hear about your outstanding deeds."

Looking at the puzzled eyes of the other party, she stretched out her hand, pulled her fingers down one by one, and muttered.

"For example, when I just entered school, I bravely broke into the forbidden area on the third floor, survived from the clutches of the three-headed dog, defeated a giant monster on Halloween, and set fire to my teacher's robe in the Quidditch match. You're going back to the Muggle world for Christmas, or are you going to hatch a dragon to open my eyes?"

"You...how did you know about the three-headed dog?" Hermione's expression looked very guilty, she obviously paid attention to hiding it from Faise.

"You can't expect tight mouths from Weasley and Tarsila. I wonder if they grew up drinking Veritaserum. When you went to borrow books last Friday, they suddenly had an argument about Hedge Patch's guts, what should have been said and what should not have been said, have been completely wiped out."

Seeing Hermione's eyes widen suddenly, Faith shrugged, "You should be glad that you and Weasley don't live in the same dormitory, I know too many things that Longbottom shouldn't be known..."

"Ron, this guy..." Hermione covered her forehead with a headache, and muttered dissatisfiedly.

"It can be seen that our dear Miss Granger is definitely a qualified Gryffindor, unless one day you are caught by the professor during the 'adventure', or you appear in the stomach of a monster."

The mocking tone almost came out through the layer of scarf, and as the topic deepened, Hermione's face became more and more bitter - she knew that Faith didn't like her doing these 'somewhat' dangerous things, but she didn't expect the other party to remember so clear.

"Face, you're not really going to tell mother all this, are you?"

Just thinking about that scene, the fearless Miss Granger couldn't help but shudder. She will definitely become the first person in history to be driven crazy by her mother nagging at Christmas.

"Mom will definitely kill me, I may not be able to leave the house this holiday..."

Due to the uneasiness in her heart, Hermione walked faster and faster, and Faith almost had to trot to keep up with her, otherwise, the scarf between the two of them would be torn apart by the anxious little lion.

"Don't worry," grabbed the other party's sleeve, forcing her to slow down a little, "Although honesty is a precious quality of our Hufflepuffs, I don't mind a little evasion for the sake of our relationship."

"That's good," Hermione breathed a long sigh of relief. With Faise's guarantee, she was relieved. Now as long as she didn't tell the truth, her mother would definitely not find out about those little secrets. "My behavior There are reasons, but it is not convenient to tell you now..."

"Hmm, I know,"

Inexplicably feeling that the other party's tone seemed a little weird, Hermione turned her head away, and just wanted to explain that she really didn't distrust the other party, but was just afraid that she would be worried if she found out.

But Faith adjusted quickly, before the other party explained, she said, "It's okay, if I'm really curious about what you are doing, I can always find out from Weasley."

"Face!"

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

Although there was a delay on the way, because Hermione deliberately reserved enough time when they set off, the two caught up with the train as a matter of course, and found an empty box smoothly.

This time the box looked a bit older than last time, but fortunately they still had a room to themselves, and they didn't have to share seats with others - that would make Faise feel very uncomfortable.

"Ahhh..." Hermione yawned a little sleepily.

Turning over a page of the book, the dense content on it becomes more and more blurred in the sight. Due to the relatively large temperature difference between indoor and outdoor, the warm box makes the drowsiness ferment very quickly.

The little lion closed the book in her hand and hugged it in her arms. Now she had a little understanding of Faise's feeling when she read the text. It was indeed easier to be attracted by dreams than to acquire knowledge.

It seems that she has no chance to continue reading this book on the train. Before the holiday, she borrowed "Great Wizards of the 20th Century" from the Hogwarts library. I hope that the content in it will help her find Nicole Flamel Related things help, and wonder if Harry and Ron can make some new discoveries in the Restricted Section.

They were running around like headless chickens now - maybe it was time to go to Hagrid again for a bit of unfounded speculation and a name?After all, the other party's ability to keep secrets is comparable to Ron's...

"Would you like to lean against me to sleep for a while?" It is rare to see Hermione looking listless, with her head falling like a chicken pecking rice, and the terrible big book in her hand was about to fall several times , Faith took the initiative to ask Ying to say.

"Hmm..." Hermione rubbed her eyes, she actually felt that this inexplicable drowsiness was not normal - it just happened to appear suddenly after Faith finished casting the curse.

But she thought about it with her dull head, and still didn't tell the other party about it.

One was worrying that it wasn't the effect of breaking the spell, which would make the other party happy for nothing; the other was that she was afraid that if something went wrong with the spell, Faith would definitely blame herself very much.

It's better not to think so much, if you are sleepy, go to sleep first, maybe everything will be solved when you wake up.

Putting the book that got in the way back into the box—her small bag couldn't even be stuffed in, Hermione tilted her head and rested her head on Faith's shoulder, the journey was still long, she should be able to sleep well .

The smell of the other party's refreshing orange-flavored shampoo kept getting into her nose. Faith smiled lightly, and straightened her body so that the little lion could lean more comfortably.

Ah, speaking of which, I should have read a manga just now...

"Forehead……"

Finding that the other party hadn't leaned close for a few minutes, and suddenly straightened her body again, Faith asked with a puzzled face, "What's the matter, Hermione?"

"My neck hurts a bit..." Considering that dear Miss Orest was very easily irritated, Hermione kept the truth in her heart very wisely, and just said softly, "I'll change my position."

She took off the shoes on her feet, and lay down on Faise's lap consciously, "Don't worry about me."

This guy……

Faise finally realized what the other party was saying, she looked angrily at the person who was breathing evenly on her lap, be careful, I will use your head as a book support too!

Chapter 56 Dreamland

Lucid dreaming—a special natural physiological phenomenon of the human body, generally occurs when the brain has obsession with certain things, and takes over the dream state from an unconscious chaotic state to a semi-conscious state.

Hermione clearly remembered that she should be sleeping in the carriage now, but when she opened her eyes again, the surrounding scene seemed so familiar yet so strange.

If there is no accident, this should be the camping activity in the fourth grade-it is the memory that I lost.

So, did Faith's spell work?

The content that had already been blurred in memory was played in front of her eyes like a video tape, but before Hermione could take a good look at her location, her gaze had moved to the next place uncontrollably.

"You wait here for me, I'll go first." An arm lifted the curtain in front of her, and at the same time, her perspective was also lowered—it is estimated that 'I' bent down and walked on tiptoe, maybe in the Like a thief on TV?

The nervousness mixed with excitement is active in the brain. This feeling is really novel. If I am now, I will definitely not feel this way about this activity that is not an adventure. But in the memory, the emotions at that time It does affect her to a certain extent.

'Myself' sneaked through the back of the teacher's tent, looked around cautiously, and after confirming that there was no one around, she waved to the villain behind her, "Come here, Faith."

For Hermione, it feels like watching an immersive movie now. She can't move or speak, and she is like a ghost attached to herself when she was a child, experiencing the events at that time again through the perspective of "herself" .

"Hermione, are we really going to the river? Actually, I don't need to wear my coat tomorrow... Please ask the teacher to wash it for me, maybe I can wear it the day after tomorrow." Faith's voice was very soft, The way of speaking is also much more shy than now.

"It's okay. I heard from the group of boys who went to play in the water secretly in the afternoon that it's not very far from the camp. When we come back, I can ask the teacher to borrow a hair dryer for you."

"All right……"

Hearing the reluctance hidden in Faith's soft tone, Hermione shook her head amusedly in her heart. The other party must be too lazy to run out at night, but she was too embarrassed to extinguish 'her own' good intentions.

But the "self" at that time obviously didn't have that self-awareness, and she was full of anticipation for the next adventure trip. After getting an affirmative answer from the other party, she led Faise to set off happily.

As it was getting late and the nearby camping areas were all occupied by the school, almost no one noticed that two little guys slipped out of their tents quietly.

On the way, as if he was afraid that the rash guy behind would get lost, 'I' grabbed the opponent's hand, and I didn't forget to add, "You have to follow me closely."

"Ah."
