I was expelled from Hogwarts?

Hepziba Smith,

As a pure-blood descendant of the Hufflepuff family, he not only inherits Helga Hufflepuff's golden cup, but also gets the frame of the portrait of her and the house-elf.

But decades ago, Hepziba Smith was killed by Tom Riddle... The old house, together with her collection, was packaged and sold by the niece and grand-niece to Bockin-Bock store.

This is a very normal thing, after all, Hepziba Smith is a famous antique home, and the things she collects are worth a lot of money.

But the problem is that the Bokin-Bock store is also an antique store, and the store buys various items from ancient families and sells them at high prices.

It's like...Bock bought Slytherin's locket from Voldemort's mother, Merope, at the price of ten Galleons of cabbage, and then sold it to Hepzibah Smith at a high price.

In the same way, it is impossible for Borgin-Bock store to keep Smith's items in their hands all the time, and they may have sold them long ago.

Once it is sold, trying to get it back is like finding a needle in a haystack, which is extremely difficult.

Rove sighed slightly. He thought that the whole matter of finding Smith's old house would be easy, but he didn't expect it to suddenly become complicated because of Tom Riddle.

The boy stared at the newspapers and asked curiously, "Where did you two get these?"

Old newspapers that are nearly fifty years old, can you find them here?

Shirley smiled and narrowed her eyes, like two crescent moons, and said, "It's on the rightmost shelf in the library."

"There's all the Daily Prophet there, Shirley and I went through all the old papers." Hermione raised her pointed chin.

Rove was moved for a moment, he restrained his lost expression, and said seriously: "Thank you both."

Xue Li didn't say any polite words, just smiled sweetly, like the first winter plum on a branch after winter, extremely beautiful.

"You're welcome." Hermione grinned, showing two front teeth, and said, "You have to give me an extra Christmas present."

"Okay." Rove laughed and teased, "However, you still owe me the bet. Can we be willing to admit defeat? It has been delayed for half a year."

Hermione looked left and right on purpose, but she didn't look at Rove. She was puzzled and said, "The bet, what bet? Why don't I remember?"

Rove reached out and gently pressed the girl's disheveled head, preventing her from shaking her head.

Hermione slapped his paw off, and said contemptuously, "I knew I wouldn't be looking for information for you, cheapskate!"

Rove laughed angrily, "You only have one Christmas gift left!"

Hermione glared at him and asked softly, "Are you both home for Christmas?"

Shirley shook her head and said, "I won't go back to the monastery."

"I'm not going home either." Rove said softly.

This Christmas, he will not return to Romania's dragon sanctuary, nor will he return to his old home in Scamander in Dorset, England.

There is no one in the two houses, why go back?

Both parents are in the United States, and Newt even took Tina to the virgin forest in Brazil to spend their wedding anniversary. Obviously, he doesn't want his grandson to disturb his old life.

Rove, who is homeless, can only stay in Hogwarts this holiday.

Hermione hesitated. Seeing that neither of them was leaving, she said softly, "Then I won't go back either!"

"Didn't you say Christmas, you want to go skiing with your parents?" Rove raised his eyebrows.

"Skiing may not be suitable for me." Hermione blushed, shook her head and said:

"I'd better stay at Hogwarts and study hard. My parents hope that I will do well in the exam, and they will understand me."

"It's only Christmas."

"Yeah, there are only six months left for the final exam, so I have to get nervous!" Hermione was full of pride, took out a neatly folded paper from her pocket, and explained:

"Here's my Christmas review plan, almost down to the second."

The girl stretched her waist and said full of motivation: "Let's stay in the library for Christmas and study hard!

Next year's final exam will definitely win the top three! "

"..."

...

...

Before the Christmas break, Slytherin and Ravenclaw played their last Quidditch match of the term.

But what was surprising was that Ravenclaw, who had been invincible for many years, actually won, taking a key match from Slytherin!

Their new Seeker, Classmate Cho Chang, secured the final victory by catching the Snitch right under Malfoy's nose.

Cho Chang immediately became a celebrity at Hogwarts. Even Cedric praised her for flying well and wanted to have an in-depth exchange with her about her skills.

It really hurt morale to be scored by the "fish belly" who looked down on him before the game. The way Malfoy cowered and avoided the Bludger was also nicknamed the cowardly lizard.

And captain Flint was hit by a Bludger two minutes into the game, and had to end... also known as the sudden death knight.

Of course, the key to Ravenclaw's victory was off-court factors.

I don't know who secretly took the photo, and it was immediately circulated throughout Hogwarts, causing an uproar:

It turned out that Terrence Higgins, the former Seeker who had been robbed of his position, gave Malfoy a hard punch during the team's training, almost knocking him into shock.

The infighting in Slytherin is good news. After all, they are well-equipped and there are no off-court factors. It is really hard to stop them from defending the title.

Terrence Higgins is also widely suspected of being an innocent undercover... must have been bought by the Gryffindor Quidditch team!

Slytherin put his hat on Gryffindor's head, and the little lion was not used to each other. There were several conflicts between the two sides before the Christmas holiday.

Professor Snape crazily deducted points from Gryffindor, and Professor McGonagall did the same... The house points of the two colleges kept dropping.

Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw somehow came to the top two, it can only be said that happiness came too fast.

As the Christmas holidays approach, the whole of Hogwarts is redecorated.

The Great Hall looked grand, not only with a dozen frost-covered Christmas trees, but with thick friezes of mistletoe and holly criss-crossing.

After a grand dinner, finally ushered in the last legal holiday of this year - Christmas.

There is no so-called vacation, and there is no non-essential absence from school. Everyone will have a holiday of about two weeks.

On a typical Christmas day, there are so many students left behind, especially those in grades 5 and 7 who are preparing for the O.W.Ls. exams and N.E.W.T. exams, and few of them will go home.

But this year the students are almost gone.

No way, after several attacks, even Lockhart was transferred to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magic and Magic. The little wizards were too scared.

Neville saw that Rove, Shirley and Hermione were all staying, and he wanted to stay too.

But Hannah invited him to visit Professor Lockhart at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magic and Magic during the holidays, and the two spent a whole day together in London.

That night, Neville still vowed to carry out Hermione's review plan at Hogwarts, but changed his mind the next morning... He left quite simply!

The entire change took less than three minutes.

But before leaving, Neville's Leif stayed with Rove.

The pregnant rooster finally lays an egg, and Rolf needs Leffe's help to hatch it.

The basilisk egg is Rove's Christmas gift to Lefu, the son of the basilisk picked up in vain... Let Lefu have fun secretly if he has nothing to do.
