Cardcaptor at Hogwarts

Chapter 30 Precious Gift

When Adam woke up the next morning, the first thing he saw was Cologne writing furiously on the round table.

"What time did you get up?"

Adam stretched.

"Ahem, I didn't sleep last night and wrote all night."

Cologne coughed sheepishly.

I had so much fun before, but now it’s the last day. I was so flustered in bed last night that I got up after tossing and turning, picked up my homework, and started writing.

Adam was used to his habit of leaving his homework until the end. He glanced under the Christmas tree:

"Have you opened your presents?"

"Not yet, I plan to open the gift as a reward for finishing my homework...ah haha~"

Colon said and yawned.

This was not the first time that he had stayed up all night to catch up on homework. Adam shook his head and ignored him. He walked under the Christmas tree and found his own gift.

"Tear mine down first!"

"good."

Adam found the gift from Cologne and opened it, only to find a pair of chopsticks inside!

"This is……"

"These are chopsticks made from unicorn horns!"

Cologne smiled proudly and said:

"The horn of a unicorn can detoxify. You always eat some weird things, and you plan to cook with magical animals and plants. You won't be afraid of poisoning with these chopsticks!"

"Thank you, I like it very much!"

Adam really likes it. What foodie can resist a pair of chopsticks that can detoxify?

But the price of this thing should be very expensive...

"What's your gift to me?"

As soon as Cologne asked, he quickly shook his head:

"Oh no! Don't tell me yet! Wait until I finish my homework and unpack it myself!"

With that said, Cologne went back to his homework.

Adam shook his head and laughed.

Fortunately, he knows Cologne's character very well and knows that the gift he gives will most likely be of high value, so his gift is also very precious. Cologne has so many magical animal products, so he should like his gift - a Fox feathers.

It was a surprise he got from Fox one time. At first, he thought it was because he touched it too hard. After Professor Dumbledore's explanation, he realized that it was a gift given to him by Fox because he liked him.

Come to think of it, the phoenix tail feathers that Mr. Ollivander used to make his wand couldn't be pulled out by grabbing the phoenix. The phoenix itself has the ability to moult on its own. Now he has accumulated so many feathers that he even has tears in his eyes. A lot.

Keep opening gifts...

What Uther gave was a scarab-shaped amulet, the main body of which was a huge green gemstone, which looked valuable.

Bernard sent a box of parts. Adam rummaged through the box and found the instruction manual. It turned out to be a disassembled Barrett... It was another day to lament that his roommate could be tortured or cuffed.

Adam was a little surprised by Eugene's gift. It looked like just a bottle of transparent liquid, but Adam felt huge magic power from it.

"What is this... potion?"

Normally potions are not transparent, but Adam still threw a Scapin Revealing Charm, and it turned out that the liquid in the bottle was not a potion.

"That's a bottle of spring water."

Eugene's voice came from behind Adam, and Adam turned around to see Eugene sitting on the bed, looking like he had just woken up.

"spring?"

"Yes, the Fountain of Good Luck, have you heard of it?"

"The Fountain of Good Luck? I seem to have heard of it somewhere...ah! Isn't that the fairy tale in "The Tales of Beedle the Bard"? Bathing in the water of the Fountain of Good Luck can bring permanent good luck to people, but in fact There is nothing magical about the Fountain of Good Luck..."

Once again, Cologne's attention was drawn.

"You'd better write quickly. The professors have really assigned a lot of homework this time."

After coaxing Colon to go back and catch up on his homework, Adam looked at Eugene curiously:

"Is this really the water from the Fountain of Good Luck?"

"Actually, I don't know. It's just a fairy tale - although it's a fairy tale for wizards. My parents have been studying these stories and anecdotes all their lives. I have barely seen them a few times. The only thing I know about them is these I send back from time to time. The things and money in Gringotts are getting bigger and bigger, and I don’t even know if they still look the same as the portraits at home.”

Eugene sighed. This was the first time he told them about his parents.

"But this may really be the spring water of the Good Luck Fountain. Even if it is not, it should be something else good. Otherwise, they would not deliberately store this water in the deepest secret vault of Gringotts."

"Huh? What secret treasury? Who is short of money?"

Uther climbed out of bed sleepily.

"No, I feel like no one in our dormitory is short of money..."

Adam couldn't help but complain. As Eugene's family background was revealed, his family seemed to be the poorest in the entire dormitory.

But then he looked at Eugene worriedly:

"Gringotts' secret vault?"

"That's the bank for wizards..."

"I know this, I just want to say, wouldn't it be nice to give the things your parents treasured as gifts to us like this?"

"It's okay. I grew up with my grandma and didn't have many friends. Before coming to Hogwarts, my grandma took out the bottle of good luck spring water from the secret vault and asked me to take it with me. I hope I can have good luck and find A few friends."

With that said, Eugene looked at Cologne who put down his pen and looked at him, at Adam, at Uther, at Bernard who was still sleeping, and smiled slightly:

"But before I even used the Fountain of Good Fortune, I seem to have found the best friend in the world, so I divide the bottle of Fountain of Good Fortune into four parts and give them to you, my friends."

Adam held the bottle of liquid tightly. Although he didn't know if it was the water of the Fountain of Good Fortune, even if it was, the emotional value on it exceeded its own value.

"I will keep it well."

Seeing Adam's expression, Eugene smiled even more brightly:

"Don't treasure it so much. Maybe it's just a bottle of ordinary water. It's common to be cheated in this kind of research."

Despite saying so, everyone still kept the Fountain of Good Fortune that Eugene gave to everyone well.

Because Adam's popularity is really good, it was almost noon when they opened the gifts, but other classmates were just good classmates, and the gifts they gave were basically courtesy gifts. Adam checked that everyone had someone he had given gifts to, so he didn't care too much.

Everyone planned to go to the hall for lunch, but Adam was stopped by Ernie just as he walked into the common room:

"The twins from the Weasley family are waiting for you outside."

"What?"

Adam was stunned, and Ernie thought he didn't remember:

"It's the twins who won the prize last night."

Remember that Adam left a message before and asked every student who went to the North Tower to take a number? At the dinner, Adam asked Professor Dumbledore and the four deans to draw a number from the number box respectively, one big and four small prizes.

The older twin brother Fred was drawn by Professor Dumbledore and won the mysterious prize - a replica of the Hogwarts cookie house.

By the way, the number drawn by Professor Snape was Harry. At that time, Professor Snape looked at his hand as if he was looking at something dirty.

"What are they looking for me for... I'll go and see, you go to the hall first."

"Okay~ We will save a good seat for you!"
