Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 2812 Red Hunger (14)

   "Stop, you stop!"

   Liz Stewart said toward two boys who were throwing myrtle with water balloons.

   "Go away!" Liz said to Myrtle.

  Myrtle looked at Liz as if trying to discern her intentions.

   "They've trapped me!" Myrtle pointed to a clock on the ground. "There is a restraining spell on it, and I can only leave if I destroy it."

   "Mind your own business!" a boy said to Liz.

   "Haha, I hit the head, 10 points." Another boy said.

  Liz used the explosive spell to destroy the clock.

  Myrtle fled into the toilet immediately after being freed.

   "That's how we met," Liz said to Pomona and Snape.

   They met on the way to Ravenclaw Tower. Liz was wearing a black dress and looked like she was at the ball with Snape. Pomona stood in the middle, looking out of place.

   When they came to the hall outside the auditorium, there were already many people, and all the partners who had made an appointment met here.

   "Where's your partner?" Pomona asked Liz.

   "I found him," said Snape, but he dragged Pomona away after he had finished speaking.

   "Where?" Pomona staggered and searched.

When they evacuated to a "safe distance", Pomona, who was hiding behind a sculpture, saw Barnaby wearing the red coat he had worn on the Three Broomsticks last time, and a black shirt underneath, which happened to match Liz's black gift Skirt "pair".

  Barnaby was not handsome, but he looked dazzling now, and he held a jewelry box in his hand.

   "He didn't wear the three rings," Pomona said to Snape.

   "I can see it," he said impatiently.

   "Put it on for me!" Liz said to Barnaby.

  Barnaby opened the jewelry box and took out a ruby ​​necklace. Liz turned around so that Barnaby could help her put the necklace on.

   "Wow," Pomona sighed.

   "She doesn't worry about what people think of her?" Snape asked.

   “I asked her that question too,” Pomona said.

   "How did she answer?" Snape asked.

   Pomona looked at Liz in a black dress and ruby ​​necklace, and she looked absolutely delighted.

There is a room in the clock tower. This room is usually locked with the picture frame that trapped Phoebe. Pomona asked for the key. After opening the double doors, Barnaby, Ben Cooper , Liz, Bill, and Charlie filed in.

   Except for Charlie and Bill, none of them went home for Christmas. Of course, they couldn't go home to create happy memories for "calling for protection" as Professor Carter said.

   "How do you feel?" Pomona asked several people.

  Bill lifted the white cloth covering the furniture, and everyone took a step back to avoid the dust.

   "I thought it was a blackboard, why is it a mirror?" Bill said.

   It was a very imposing mirror, as high as the ceiling, with a line of words engraved on the golden frame.

  Even with a cloth covering it, there was still a lot of dust on the mirror surface, and the figure shaking in the mirror could not be seen clearly. Pomona used a magic wand to cover the white cloth in Bill's hand again.

   "You can use it after I clear the things here." Pomona said, "You go first."

  The students were a little puzzled, but they still left.

   After they passed through the clock tower courtyard and returned to the corridor, Pomona walked up to the mirror.

  Beside the mirror were some dusty planetariums and a desk, and Pomona opened a drawer that contained a student file.

  Myrtle Elizabeth Warren, sorted into Ravenclaw College on September 1, 1940, died on June 13, 1943.

   Followed by Myrtle's school grades and awards.

   "I was the Transfiguration professor."

  Pomona looked up and found Dumbledore standing at the door.

   "I will be a substitute teacher when Professor Doris is away. Those are the ones I used before." Dumbledore said, pointing to the planetariums on the ground.

   "This mirror too?" asked Pomona.

  Dumbledore walked to the front of the mirror.

"I told them that the murderer was not Hagrid, and they believed it, because the murderer was Hagrid's pet, and Hagrid was just the owner of the eight-eyed spider." Dumbledore said in a voice full of memories, "But they still broke Hagrid. Grid's wand."

  Pomona put the form back.

"I wasted a lot of time in front of this mirror, and then I put all of it in this place, since you want to use this place now, you have to keep it safe, read the words on the mirror upside down, meaning It's the magic mirror that makes you see your deepest, most intense desires, and it's fun, but don't get lost in it."

   "What do you see in the mirror?" Pomona asked.

"It's privacy, this mirror doesn't tell us the truth, and you don't have to tell me what you see, but I can tell you that I've seen a lot of wool socks and only the happiest people see themselves ’ said Albus, and left the tower.

  Pomona looked in the mirror, and she saw a blurry figure, but she thought it was herself.

   “In the middle of winter, I finally knew I had an unbeatable summer in me,” Pomona said.

   "What?" Severus asked.

  Pomona smiled at him, and followed the others towards Ravenclaw Tower.

  Anyone can enter Ravenclaw's lounge as long as they answer the eagle knocker question correctly.

   When Newt Scamander arrived in New York with a box of Fantastic Beasts and the Thunderbird rescued in Egypt, it happened to be June, a not too hot summer.

  Although Newt is a bit shy and not as good at dealing with people as his brother Theseus, he is not a cowardly person. He is Liz's imitation object, and she also became friends because of the common "fire crab hobby" with Hagrid. In addition, Muggle newspapers and magazines are everywhere telling how Bill, the richest man in the world, dropped out of Harvard University to start a business. Dropping out of school and taking a break from school are not as big a deal as "the sky is falling" for her.

   She just came out of an unrequited love affair with a ghost, and Barnaby is better than Ben Cooper in every way except for being the "son of a Death Eater" who gets thrown a dung bomb. Moreover, it is said that black wizards cannot use the guardian spirit. Barnaby's wand can spray out some silver substances. Although he cannot form a physical patron saint, his progress is similar to that of ordinary people.

   There was a time when it was popular among students to play fire crabs, and Liz would stop it the same way they stopped someone from throwing myrtle water bombs. She wants to stop Charlie from training the swallowtail dog to go through the ring of fire. She was always like this, so the nickname "Nose-sniffing Liz" grew up, and no "living" boy invited her at all.

When Pomona and Severus appeared at the entrance of the Ravenclaw lounge, Sybill Trelawney was discussing "Mars" and "Bloodlight" with Sinista, and the air was filled with the smell of burning spices. This is emitted from the large furnace in the center of the Ravenclaw lounge. The upward smoke forms a "curtain", and the image of Mars is projected in the smoke.

   "Look, all the teachers are here," Severus said.

  Pomona scanned the venue, including Dumbledore, who were chatting and laughing with everyone.

   Then he left her alone, without any awareness of being a "partner".

   At this moment, two girls in blue dresses ran up to Pomona holding hands.

   "Good evening, Professor!" said a girl.

   "This party is awesome, isn't it!" Another girl said with unspeakable excitement.

  Pomona remembered them, and they were the ones who asked her to borrow flowers, but she refused.

   Although the scene is now covered with flowers.

   "Oh, are you asking about these flowers? The dean told us that even flowers are life, and we should cherish them." A girl seemed to see Pomona's confusion and explained to her.

   "That's what magic and charms do," said another girl.

   After they finished speaking, they giggled together, then left Pomona and greeted other guests.

  Pomona was so angry that a plate full of punch flew over, and Pomona picked up a glass of wine and drank it dry.

   Then she walked around, trying to calm the fire in her heart.
