In this busy state, time flies by. It wasn't until one day when Hugo saw jack-o-lanterns with blue flames starting to float in the castle that he realized that he had been staying at Hogwarts for two full months and Halloween was about to begin.

As the time approaches this festival, the castle begins to fill with a festive atmosphere. The most active among them are the ghosts. For example, some ghosts start to perform the scene when they died, and Peeves will get into every place it can get into and try to scare people who are close to it.

For example, Hugo saw Filch angrily pull Peeves out of the armor on both sides of the corridor more than once, because Peeves would not only jump out suddenly and startle people, but he would also have a dirty mouth. He said a lot of inappropriate words.

During the daytime Charms class on Halloween, Hugo was the first to successfully use the Levitation Charm in class, adding five points to the academy. What made him even more happy was that after class, Shengli told him that the changes in this class had earned him some destiny points.

"Hugo, what did you do with these things from Neville of Gryffindor in Potions class these days?" In the afternoon, in the common room, I watched Hugo put several bottles filled with strange-colored liquids. After carefully putting it away, he asked obviously a little strangely. "They are obviously failed potions."

"I know." Hugo nodded, "But these potions have some unexpected and strange effects. You should know that I have recently been developing some joke products with the Weasley twins. And some of these failed products have After improvement, it might become an interesting joke potion."

"Oh, but you'd better be careful. I think there are some potions that can even destroy metal cauldrons." Hermione actually didn't agree with her brother and the Weasley twins studying these things together. After all, this kind of research often involves dangers, and Hugo seemed too young. She was worried that her brother would be injured in the process.

Hugo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Hermione no longer paying attention to the potions she was holding and chatting with Veneto beside her. In fact, what he just said is only part of the reason. Another important reason is that these potions will be his most important weapon against the trolls without exposing those firearms.

Because he realized in his previous preparations that as a human, it was impossible for him to improve his magic level as quickly as the ship girls. On the other hand, the magic item that allows first-year students to defeat a giant monster is simply not something that a wizard like Hugo can obtain now.

After going around in a circle, Hugo unexpectedly discovered that Neville's potion was actually the most lethal weapon he could get at this stage. He felt that the liquid that could corrode metal might also have a considerable effect on trolls. of killing.

Fortunately, it was because of their friendship with the three-headed dog last time, and Hugo claimed that these failed potions had some effects and could produce a very good prank effect from a certain perspective. So Neville didn't doubt him, and tried his best to give Hugo his failed potions after every Potions class.

So it's Halloween, which is this morning. Hugo already had four or five bottles of potions that Neville failed to make. He had tested the effects of these potions in private and found that they were indeed extremely lethal.

After returning to the dormitory, Hugo put some of these potions in five or six test tubes, so that even if he explained afterwards, he could say that they were for research. This was why he didn't bring all the potions with him in bottles. After all, the bottles were too big and it looked too suspicious to carry them like this.

After everything was prepared, it was almost time for dinner. After adjusting his clothes, Hugo walked towards the auditorium with his Ravenclaw classmates.

"You seem a little nervous." Although Hugo hid it well on the outside, as twins who grew up together, Hermione quickly saw the uneasiness in his heart. "what's going on"

"It's nothing." Hugo smiled and said, "It's just the first time to celebrate this kind of festival in the magical world, so I'm a little curious. Think about it, this is Halloween, there are so many ghosts in the outside world. Interesting stuff, and it will be fun to celebrate the holidays the wizarding way in this school with ghosts and magic.”

"What you said makes sense." Hermione smiled and nodded. She also recalled how when she was a child, she and Hugo dressed up as various legendary creatures and went trick-or-treating with their neighbors. Happy time for family to ask for candy.

Everyone walked into the auditorium amid laughter, only to find that the auditorium was completely different from what it was at noon. Every place is decorated with colorful Halloween decorations.

A thousand bats fluttered on the walls and ceiling, and a thousand more circled like low dark clouds over the dining table, making the candle flames flicker in the pumpkin's belly.

"Will these bats put something dirty on the dishes?" As a young wizard from a doctor's family, Hermione naturally likes to be clean. So she found it a bit unacceptable that these little animals that usually lived in cold and dirty caves suddenly appeared here.

"Don't worry, Hermione." Unlike being ostracized everywhere in Gryffindor, the Ravenclaw students had a good impression of Hermione, a primary school girl who loved to study and worked hard to answer questions to add points to the academy, so Just when she finished asking the question, Marietta, who was sitting diagonally across from her, answered it proactively. "These bats were created by Professor McGonagall, not the dirty ones outside. So you don't have to worry about them at all."

While everyone was chatting, Professor Dumbledore stood up and said a few words. Then he directly announced the start of the banquet. The delicious food suddenly appeared on the golden plate, just like at the banquet at the beginning of school.

Hugo and Veneto looked at each other and started eating, like everyone else at the table. However, if anyone pays attention to them, they will find that although the two of them move a lot, they don't eat much. After all, there is likely to be some intense exercise in a while, and eating too much will be inconvenient.

Of course, this inconvenience only refers to Hugo. This problem does not exist for ship girls. The reason why she didn't eat much was simply to take care of her admiral's mood.

Sure enough, just when everyone was finishing their appetizers, Professor Quirrell suddenly rushed into the restaurant. His big scarf was crooked on his head, with a look of horror on his face. Everyone stared at him, and saw him walking to Professor Dumbledore's chair, leaning on the table, and gasping: "The troll thought you should know in the underground classroom."

After saying that, he fell to the floor and passed out. The restaurant suddenly became a mess. Professor Dumbledore had to make several piercing pyrotechnic explosions from the tip of his wand before everyone fell silent.

"This man is really trying too hard." Veneto told Hugo through the Admiral Network, "He was conscious when he fell just now, but to be able to face the ground and fall straight to the ground is a ruthless person. people."

Although Professor Quirrell pretended to be unconscious just now and fooled many people, he could not fool the ship girl with superior perception.

"Quilot can't help it. After all, he has to establish a timid and incompetent persona for himself, and being frightened by a troll escaping is a good example of showing his incompetence." Hugo replied. "As for why his face landed on the ground, don't forget what was on the back of his head."
