Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 689 The fish that slipped through the net

  At the beginning of the 19th century, the Shutalbam’s house in Nuremberg, Bavaria, Germany, held a Christmas party. Daughter Clara, son Fritz and their whole family all greeted the guests at the door.

  The Christmas party began. Clara’s godfather, Droselmea, brought a beautiful and huge hand-cranked music box, from which three puppets, a cute girl, a funny clown, and a powerful Arab, were taken out to perform for the children. Finally, Deroselmea took out the ugly Nutcracker, and Clara asked Deroselmea to give her the puppet. She held the Nutcracker in her arms and fell asleep quietly.

  The sleeping Clara was awakened and was seeing the Seven-Headed Rat King with a large group of mice to take away the Nutcracker. The Nutcracker suddenly grew bigger, directing the puppets and the mouse army to fight. Clara fainted with fright at the scene. When she woke up, the Nutcracker unlocked the magic of the mouse and became a handsome prince. The prince invited Clara to be a guest in the candy kingdom under his own rule. The two people got on the wooden horse and embarked on a journey.

  The prince and Clara came to the Snow Country, which is a crystal clear world. The ice queen and king led the snow elves into snow falling in the wind, dancing to welcome them. Clara got a beautiful shawl from the queen and king and went on the road with the prince again.

  The fairies in the water yelled when they saw the wooden boat where Clara and the prince were riding. A stray wind blew, and the mice that had not been wiped out came back to fight back, but in the end they all died under the sword of the prince.

  Destroyed the mouse, Clara and the prince came to the candy kingdom, which is a luxurious palace built with various snacks. Various elves of chocolate, jelly beans, cream, etc. danced to welcome them with a gorgeous dance. Clara and the prince danced a pas de deux in the candy kingdom as a wedding ceremony. Unknowingly, Clara had fallen in love with the prince deeply, but also vaguely felt that the prince would leave her far away. With this anxiety, Clara fell asleep quietly.

  The Christmas party is over. The godfather gently put the white shawl on Clara's shoulder, and then went away on the sleigh. Clara recalled the good time spent with the prince, holding the nutcracker in her arms, standing in the drifting snow for a long time, and the night of Christmas was getting deeper and deeper.

  Klara is only 9 years old. She knows a fart about getting married. She just thinks about dancing a pas de deux. Does she think that marriage is the end of the wedding ceremony?

  When Pomona was eating lunch in the dining car, a large family was also having dinner. A pair of haggard parents brought three energetic children, two boys and one girl. The girl ate quietly with a puppet in her hand, and the two boys stood on the chairs and yelled, without basic table manners at all.

Starting boarding school at the age of 11 is no small challenge. Pomona is very thankful that the Hogwarts freshmen can at least sit on the bench and eat properly. Seeing the two "monkeys" jumping up and down, she began to be sincere. Lamenting the hard work of the parents who trained them to be "human".

The family made the potion professor who was in a good mood again began to exude terrible magic pressure. He was so quiet drinking bean soup, his expression looked very calm, but she extremely doubted whether he would pull out his wand in the next second and give Those two "monkeys" had a lesson.

   "Why don't they travel with a fireplace." She murmured, cutting the lamb chops on the plate hard.

  "Little Red Riding Hood" no longer wears a witch hat, but "Little Puppet" hasn't stopped lying. His hooked nose is hard evidence.

  Thinking is so dirty, no wonder he was kicked in the head by a unicorn when he was a child.

   "Draco didn't travel with a fireplace very much when he was young." Severus said coldly, "Lucius and Cici were afraid that he would disappear."

"what?"

   "Not all little wizards are as lucky as Harry Potter. Someone will be rescued at a critical moment." Severus sneered and said, "He read the wrong address in the second grade and the fireplace sent him to Knockturn Alley."

   "Oh." Pomona had an epiphany.

  There are so many black wizards in Germany, no one knows if they will accidentally break into their homes.

  After the train passed Eisenberg, it entered the wealthy area. The castles hidden in the forest were as luxurious as Malfoy Manor.

  Pomona looked at the flower earrings on the ears of the lady opposite. They looked very beautiful, but she didn't wear her ears.

  "Good noon." At this moment, Chef Joseph suddenly appeared next to them. He rubbed his hands and seemed eager to try the next conversation. "Are you two satisfied with lunch?"

   "Very good." Pomona looked at Severus' face and said, "This is the best I have eaten on the train."

   "This is my honor." Joseph bowed to Pomona. "I heard that the two were passengers on the previous train."

   "Your news is very good." Severus said slickly, "Who told you?"

  "I like to make friends. They appreciate what they do."

   "It's just a matter of raising a hand." Pomona said modestly.

   "Yes, it's a little help." Joseph said, juggling a bottle of champagne out from behind him. "What do you think of changing a bottle of table wine?"

  Rose Champagne, Champagne Rose, they are always indispensable for romantic dates.

  Pomona has no preference for wine. After the noisy family appeared, the girl who played the harp disappeared, and she was in no mood to drink and celebrate.

  "Is this a banquet or do I have to pay for it?" Severus asked directly.

   "Of course it is a banquet. After the next mountain pass, we will enter the territory of vampires." Joseph lowered his voice and said, "I don't want to be sucked by them."

   "Let it go." Severus said with a cheerful smile.

  Joseph was very proficient in opening the champagne. With a "pop", the cork popped out by himself, and he poured wine into three wine glasses.

   "To the beauty of Madam." Joseph said highly, holding up his wine glass.

   "Respect your beauty." Severus said with a smile.

  After Joseph took a sip of champagne, Severus took another sip. Pomona decided not to touch the glass of wine. Someone must stay awake.

   "Ah, when I was young, I also wanted to be like two people, to be able to travel on a honeymoon, but unfortunately I didn't have a lover at that time. I really envy them."

   "None of us are young anymore." Pomona said with a smile.

  Now she looks like she is in her forties. A mid-year honeymoon couple always feels less energetic than young people.

   "Do you have a lover now?" Severus asked with interest.

"It's a pity that now I am married, but I don't have money and time for my honeymoon." Joseph shrugged. "I used to quit my favorite cigar to save money. Later, someone told me that money was not saved. It was earned, and that opened my eyes."

   "What is your way to make money?" Severus smirked, as if he was really interested.

  "Have you heard of medicated diet? It is a kind of Chinese medicine, but it is not a real medicine. It has a nourishing effect." Joseph rubbed his beard and narrowed his eyes with a smile.

   "Can you tell me something?" Severus asked.

  Joseph glanced at the lively family, lowered his voice and said, "I highly recommend a mixed fish soup. You will find it very delicious."

   "What fish is in that soup?" Severus asked deeply.

   "La Mora."

   "Oh, my God." Pomona exclaimed.

  It is illegal to catch Lamora. It is said that eating it can add magic power. The International Wizarding Federation has issued many laws to prohibit the capture. However, there are still people who eat it regardless of the ban, at least Severus seems to be excited.

   "We can't do this." Pomona looked at him and said, "That kind of fish is going extinct."

   "Even if we don't eat, they will eat." Severus tilted his head and motioned to the table next door.

  Pomona glanced at Joseph. She felt that Severus shouldn’t have said anything in front of him, and she planned to ask him to leave.

  "You should try it, madam, this is your honeymoon trip." Joseph promoted it shamelessly.

  She was half dead with anger.

   Again, she is not a vegetarian, but she opposes illegal eating and cherishing wild animals!

   "Let's discuss it again." Severus said with a smile at Joseph.

   "Well, you can call me anytime." Joseph looked at Severus deeply and said, "Madam's opinion is the most important."

  When he walked away, Severus put away his smile.

  He drank the green bean soup in silence.

   "You don't want to discuss the matter with me just now?"

   "No." He was so angry that he said "You don't want it, I won't force you."

   "What was it just now?" She stomped him hard under the table.

  He immediately laughed ambiguously and smugly.

   "I know you are duplicity, saying'no'..."

   "Shut up!" she yelled angrily.

  He didn't take her warning seriously, and he still smiled triumphantly.

  While they were talking, Joseph and the man at the next table smiled and shook hands. It seemed that they had concluded a deal.

  The woman was so fierce as to reprimand her sons, and Pomona suddenly felt that the crystal flower earrings on her ears were not so attractive.
