Volume 3: A Tombstone Stained with Sin and Blood Chapter 141 Gabrielle's Roommate
After the summer vacation begins, a small number of students on the carriage who have families will have a short vacation to go home for a few days.
Although Neville invited him at the beginning of the holiday, Jon declined.
After learning some things from Dumbledore, he wanted to stay in the carriage at this time to see what the result of the search would be.
On the third day of the summer vacation, McGonagall gathered most of the students in the dining hall under the pretext of cleaning the entire carriage. Then Filch led some senior students to clean every dormitory and common room.
The other students thought it was just an ordinary cleaning, after all, there was always such an activity on the carriage after every summer vacation.
The "cleaning" would last the entire afternoon, and during this time, Jon was not idle in the restaurant. Even during the summer vacation, Hermione Hutton and Ariel had not relaxed yet, and were still catching up on the knowledge they had missed before coming to the carriage, and Jon was helping them with their lessons.
After following the senior students for a long time, Gabrielle returned to the cafeteria in boredom.
"It's a pity that my roommates have all gone home, otherwise I could go play with them and they would always take me to find some interesting things." The little girl supported her chin and lay beside .
Jon, who had just finished explaining the essentials of the Freezing Spell to Hermione and the others, turned and looked at Gabrielle.
"Your roommate? I was worried that the first-year students assigned to live with you would mind you. After all, Muggles are always uncomfortable with ghosts. It looks like they are girls from a wizard family? Do you get along well?"
"Luna people are very interesting!" Gabrielle was so happy when she introduced her friend that it was as if she was introducing herself. "Although many first-year students think she is weird, she is really very nice otherwise."
"She loved to tell me stories about the Scimitar-Horned Snorkeller and she would show me the cork and carrot she always wore, even though I wasn't particularly interested in either of those things."
"And Ginny is also very kind. Every time her mother sends her something, she will think of sharing it with us. It's just that I can't eat those cakes, cookies and sandwiches yet. But she promised me that when I turn back into a human, she will invite me to her house and let her mother cook all the delicious food for me!"
"But after the summer vacation, Luna and Ginny will go home. They are not Muggle students and have their own families in the wizarding world. They can go back and stay with their families for a week."
It was only today that Jon found out who Gabrielle lived with, Luna Lovegood, a little girl nicknamed Crazy Girl, who had a very good personality and was very suitable for making friends.
As for the other Ginny Weasley, there is no need to say more. The children of the Weasley family are basically all good, and the youngest girl in the red-haired family has inherited the advantages of her parents.
" They sound like nice people," Jon echoed Gabrielle.
Gabrielle said excitedly, "When they come back, I can introduce them to you. They actually talked a lot about you in private in the dormitory."
“I’m looking forward to it.”
The inspection of the entire carriage was finally completed before dinner. Judging from the expression on Professor McGonagall's face at the end, it was obvious that this trip yielded nothing.
Jon actually felt that there was something wrong with the whole thing.
If it is true as Dumbledore said, that Voldemort sent people to sneak into the carriage this time, then why is it that now two whole months have passed and there is still no movement?
So far, there has been no abnormality in the carriage, and no pursuers have appeared, making it difficult to tell what Voldemort's intentions are.
The calmer it is, the more uneasy it will be for those who know the inside story. It is just like the sky will always remain quiet before a storm comes. No one knows what is hidden behind this calmness.
Jon always remained vigilant in his heart, but he never stopped learning magic.
After "reporting" to Dumbledore, he officially began to study the first banned book obtained from the gem, "The Invisible Blade: Shadowless".
Putting aside his character and only considering his talent, Snape is indeed a rare genius in the wizarding world. This powerful black magic was invented by him when he was a student at Hogwarts, and it is not difficult to learn. However, compared to other spells, it takes a lot of effort to master it.
Jon also did not fall behind in some basic spells in the second-year textbook "Standard Spells: Level 2". He got a very high score in his spells exam and was praised by Professor Flitwick as "wonderful spellcasting". But even after the exam, Jon has been trying to improve on the second-year spells.
Because among the magic they learned this year, there is a very useful spell - the Forgetfulness Spell.
If one only learns how to use it normally, then this spell can only erase a part of a person's memory at most. But if one masters it, then not only can it erase a person's memory, but it can also weave a false memory and inject it into the brain of the person whose memory is erased.
However, generally speaking, wizards who can reach this level are qualified to be called masters, and there are very few people in the magic world who have thoroughly studied this spell.
Now in the Memory Deletion Office of the Ministry of Magic, the office director named Gilderoy Lockhart is the most important one among them. He is personally responsible for the deletion and reorganization of the memories of Muggle students in Hogwarts Castle.
The check at the beginning of the summer vacation was fruitless and still had no impact on the life after the carriage.
The students who stayed on the carriage were not completely idle. Professors would organize clubs and tea parties during the holidays, temporarily occupying the astronomy classroom on the top of the carriage or the greenhouse full of flowers to hold some entertaining activities.
Most of these activities are related to interests and hobbies, such as the "Wizard Chess Championship" organized by Professor Flitwick, the "Flower Arranging Tea Party" held by Lily, the "Quidditch Paper Club" organized by Professor McGonagall, etc. They basically have nothing to do with study, making the two-month vacation feel like nothing.
After a week, Ron Neville and his friends, who had returned home for the holiday, also got back on the carriage.
At the first dinner in the carriage, Ron complained to them about what happened at home.
"Percy is going to be the Head Boy next term, and he's been showing off his new Head Boy badge to us all day, as if he can't eat or sleep unless we praise him!"
