Admiral of Hogwarts

After the Christmas vacation began, the professor assigned a lot of homework to the fourth grade students. According to them, there is only a little more time left before the O.W.LS exam.

Of course, most students simply have no intention of doing their homework. In the week before Christmas, the library was noticeably emptier than before the holidays.

"It seems that apart from the fifth and seventh grade students, we seem to be the only ones studying in the library." While doing homework in the library that day, Hugo looked around and whispered. said to her sister. "

We have no choice but to be busy with a lot of things in the second half of the Christmas holiday, so we can only finish our homework in a hurry now. "Hermione said as she shook her head helplessly.

In fact, several ship girls had said before that they could help write those assignments, but Hermione rejected them all. Because she felt that it would be meaningless for others to write these things.

Hugo himself felt that as long as he mastered the knowledge, it didn't matter whether he did his homework or not. But it's obviously not appropriate to object when being stared at by your own sister.

Due to their previous investment, the Weasley twins' first product, Animal Transformation Biscuits, was successfully produced and sold at the Golden Harbor Grocery Store.

Compared with the single canary biscuit in the original article, the new products supported by the ship girls obviously have many more varieties. Whether they are deformable types or the snacks used as disguises, the styles and tastes are hard to detect.

As a result, except for some students who have mastered certain discernment spells, most of the people are now very cautious when accepting the snacks handed over by others.

Heavy snow fell on the castle and grounds. Beauxbatons' light blue carriage looks like a big pumpkin covered in frost in winter, and the little gingerbread house sprinkled with frosting next to it is Hagrid's hut;

A layer of ice formed on the side of Durmstrang's ship, becoming smooth and translucent, and the sail ropes were also stained with a layer of hoarfrost.

. Even during lunch time, the busy house elves prepared a variety of hot stews and sweet puddings for the teachers and students.

"The food at Hogwarts is too greasy," Fleur said with a frown when she was about to go out after lunch. "I can't even put on my dress robe!"

"So I think it's pretty good for me to become a ship girl now." Hermione, who was going out, said to Hugo through the Admiral Network. "At least when you encounter something delicious, you don't have to choose between food and weight."

"Of course, if that change hadn't turned me on to the smell of rust and engine oil, I think I might have been more satisfied with the changes in my body."

As Christmas approached, Hugo received good news from Massachusetts. That's where one particular piece of her previous research has now led to a breakthrough.

According to her, this development is an unprecedented breakthrough, which can be said to subvert the foundation of the modern wizarding world. If it is made public, it will cause a shock in the wizarding world.

However, like Veneto and Hermione, Massachusetts also kept it secret from Hugo for the time being, saying that it would treat it as a gift when Hugo went to the United States for inspection.

"Now these two little girls will give the admirals a careless look." After reading these reports that made people feel a little inferior, Hugo shook his head helplessly.

Soon, the time came to the morning of Christmas Day. Even if the girls did not send the gifts to the school this year in order to avoid unnecessary suspicion, Hugo received a lot of gifts this year, and they were piled up beside his bed. A small pile.

Some of these gifts came from fellow-minded people I met when I participated in the alchemy competition before, and many also came from friends I met in school.

The weirdest-looking one is a large-mouthed fish brooch made of colorful metal wires. You don’t need to look at the label to know that this thing must have been sent by Luna.

After going downstairs to have breakfast, Hugo and the others returned to the common room and chatted until after lunch before he went to the playground to have a snowball fight with his sister and Veneto.

By 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the girls returned to the castle one after another to dress up, while Veneto and Hermione delayed their departure until 6:30.

At 7:00 in the evening, it finally got dark. At this time, the boys gave up the snowball fight and returned to their dormitories to change into their formal robes.

Hugo's dress robe was made for him by the ship's ladies. It was a dark blue robe, and it looked a bit like the gorgeous military uniform style of the 18th and 19th centuries. After putting it on, he looked a lot more energetic. .

After changing clothes, Hugo and several boys went to the foyer at the entrance of the auditorium. Even though they arrived earlier, the foyer was still crowded with people.

Because he learned from Veneto and the others that Luna still had some time to come down, Hugo simply followed the gate and walked out of the castle to get some fresh air, but he happened to see a huge figure coming from the direction of the Forbidden Forest.

"Good evening, Hagrid." After looking at Hagrid who had dressed himself up according to the image style designed by Veneto and the others last time, Hugo immediately stepped forward to say hello.

"Ha, Hugo, good evening." After hearing Hugo's greeting, Hagrid waved his big hand like a cattail leaf fan to greet him. "Why didn't you go in here?"

"There are too many people inside, and my dance partner didn't come down, so I plan to stay outside for a while to get some air." Hugo shrugged. "By the way, is your dance partner Madame Maxime?"

"Of course, of course it's Mrs. Maxim." After hearing Hugo's question, Hagrid showed a slightly honest smile.

"We've been on a good relationship lately, so I'm going to take this opportunity to talk to her today - to talk about some deeper issues."

"A more in-depth question?" After hearing what Hagrid said, Hugo immediately pulled him to a shadow by the door, then wetted a few protective spells to make sure no one could overhear, and looked seriously asked.

"Is the so-called deeper issue you plan to discuss with Madam Maxime related to the giant blood in your body?"

"Yeah, after all, it's difficult for someone like me to find someone of the same kind -" Hagrid blurted out his answer after hearing Hugo's question, but he didn't realize something was wrong until halfway through. "Wait, when did you first know that I was half-giant?"

"Shh, keep your voice down." Hugo gestured with his hand in front of his mouth. "Most people don't like half-giants. Why are you shouting so loudly?"

Then Hugo said in a calm tone: "You know I have read a lot of books, and I can naturally deduce this from your body's resistance and your aging speed."

"After all, normal people don't recover as quickly as you do after being injured by magical animals, nor do they look the same as they do in their forties when they are over sixty years old."

"With these characteristics, coupled with your extraordinary size and unique views on various magical creatures, I was basically able to guess that you were a half-giant when I was in first grade."

"But don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this." Hugo said, patting Hagrid's arm. "I know wizards are biased in some ways."
