A day at Hogwarts

"Brother, is there something wrong with you?"

Under the night sky, the light of the bonfire shone on a tall nine-tailed lady with blond hair, green eyes, broad ears and giant peaks. Her fair face was full of helplessness.

She was also wearing a lilac dress with a newly pierced tail.

Charles handed over a cup of hot tea and said, "My name is Charles Smith, what do you call me?"

"Just call me Cuihua." She spoke pretty good English, "I heard from my third uncle that foreigners are quite reliable, but I didn't expect to meet someone as unreliable as you."

She took a sip of hot tea and sighed again.

Charles asked curiously: "How does your third uncle know that foreigners are reliable?"

Cuihua didn't know how many times she sighed, and after taking another sip of tea, she said, "Our life is miserable now!"

"I heard from my great-grandmother that it didn't take much trouble for us to ask for a seal in the past. The villagers helped us, and we ended up bringing two kilograms of snacks, fruits and a bottle of wine to express our gratitude. The two families formed a good relationship."

"At that time, the villagers were afraid of us, and they were pretty well-behaved."

"It's different now. Young people are getting wilder and wilder. My brother-in-law became a Hafei Songhua River a few years ago."

"You might as well become Santana. You can earn more by running a taxi."

"My third uncle is smart. He went to Lao Maozi and became a Maozi. Now he is very profitable in foreign trade."

"My mother said that I can imitate my third uncle and become a foreign girl. Then I can take the Beijing Film Academy exam and become an actor in the future."

"Grandma is also true. She made a fortune for me and said that I just need to go in this direction..."

The more she talked, the more depressed she became. At the end of the sentence, she gritted her teeth and seemed to want to bite Charles to death.

After Charles digested all the information, he scratched his head in embarrassment. It looked like he had harmed the girl.

Although this girl is now a beauty (from Charles' perspective), her animal ears and tail are too conspicuous, which disrupts her original life plan and makes it difficult for her to go out. She might as well become Santana and run a taxi.

"This..." He kept scratching his head, "Is there any way to become another person?"

"No more." Cuihua sighed and shook his head, "We only have one chance to ask for Feng's transformation as adults. We will look like what the other party wants. If we want to change, we can only change back to four legs."

Charles continued to scratch his head, not knowing what to say or do for a moment.

The scene suddenly became quiet, with only the crackling sounds coming from the campfire.

Over at the wooden house, everyone crowded behind the window and watched with trepidation as Charles had a conversation with the being who didn't know whether it was a human or a magical animal.

In their opinion, the scary animal just now turned into an even scarier person, and they looked at Charles with a bad look, which might be dangerous.

Cedric said with some worry: "Let me go out. I'm worried about it...she hurt Charles."

Joyce said nothing to stop her.

Seamus was about to say that he would go too, but Hermione gritted her teeth and said, "Charles will be angry if you go there now."

Cedric asked curiously: "Why?"

Hermione recalled the unhappy past, pouted slightly and said, "He likes this type."

Harry thought of the collection of books in Charles' bedroom and said, "That's true."

The two people who knew Charles best said so, and the others assumed that was the case, and Cedric stopped mentioning going out.

By the campfire, Charles held back his words for a long time: "I think your voice is quite nice, why don't you go sing."

Cuihua said helplessly: "It seems that this is the only way."

She continued to complain: "Oh, I almost spent all the New Year's money I saved to come here. If I had known this, I might as well go to Hong Kong, where there are many foreigners."

"How am I going to get on the kang in the future? I'm so nervous after lying down with so many tails, so I can't just smash a hole in the kang. That won't make bacon."

"What should I do if my tail loses hair? How much shampoo should I use? Damn it..."

After she finished complaining, the tea cup made with the transfiguration technique in her hand was crushed back into stone, and then into stone powder.

Charles could only say: "If you have any requests in the future, just ask me and I will do my best."

"Forget it." Cuihua waved her hand, "At least it has two legs. I'll use a blindfold to hide the ears and tail."

Charles raised his brows and asked, "A cover-up?"

The same kind of black smoke appeared outside Cuihua's body again, her eyes flashed with scarlet red light, and she said at the same time: "Yes, it's used to scare people."

This blind trick was really good at scaring people, and a large group of people immediately rushed out of the wooden house.

When Charles saw them raising their wands, he immediately waved his hands and said, "Don't do it, it's okay!"

Seeing this, Cuihua stopped her cover-up, stood up and said, "I'm going to leave first. I have some things to do when I get back. I'll go to England to find love when I have time."

"Oh, I'm going to be laughed at when I apply for my ID card and household registration book with this look."

"What should I do when I take the driver's license test in the future? The admission ticket for the college entrance examination must look like this."

She touched the big ears on both sides of her head depressedly.

Charles was stunned for a moment and asked in disbelief: "Do you still want to apply for a household registration?"

"That's for sure." Cuihua said matter-of-factly, "My brother-in-law still has his driving license. My father finally found a scrap car deck for him."

Then she covered her mouth and laughed: "Uncle, every time before he transforms, he has to hold the license plate in his mouth and wrap his tail around another piece."

Charles laughed too, it was really funny.

He asked again: "Where is your home? I'll go there when I have time."

He was quite interested in the Cuihua clan and planned to see their customs and practices when he had the chance.

Cuihua said: "You can go to Qiqihar first, buy a ticket to Gouxiongling Station at the train station, and wait for a van without a driver at the barbecue stall on the roadside outside the station at 10:30 pm. They will say they are here to see me and just give me two steamed buns."

"I'm leaving."

After she finished speaking, she turned back into a yellow fox, drew a pattern on the ground with her left front paw, and then slapped it with one paw, and her whole body suddenly burrowed into the soil and disappeared.

At this time, other people from Hogwarts gathered around, and Joyce asked Charles: "Who is that person? Did she hurt you?"

Charles made an excuse and said: "She is a Chinese wizard. She went out for a trip and took the wrong way. She accidentally came here and asked me for directions just now."

Neville shrank his neck and said: "She looked so scary just now."

Charles replied: "Yes, that is one of their spells similar to the Confusion Charm, which is specially used to scare people."

"It's okay, everyone go back and rest."

After confirming that everything was fine, everyone returned to the cabin, only Hermione stayed.

"Did you turn her into that?" Hermione remembered some content she had read in a book, "I remember a book said that there is a magical weasel in China that can turn into a human form with the help of people."

Charles said: "There are also people who can turn into cats... Ouch!"

Hermione stepped on him hard and went back to the cabin.
