The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

After seeing this strange combination, Dumbledore couldn't help but sigh.

Today is Christmas! Can you calm down for a while? !

But Dumbledore knew very well that he had a heavy responsibility and could not turn away the few people who came over, so he could only accept Karkaroff as a patient.

"Two Mr. Weasleys, Miss Zhang, and Mr. Potter, please go back first - you should prepare for the Yule Ball tonight." Dumbledore issued the expulsion order without hesitation, asking these four students to go back first. go back.

Issa May was relieved, while the four Harrys showed obvious unwillingness on their faces. They were wailing in their hearts, one by one reluctant to compete.

Professor Dumbledore, we are the ones who brought Karkaroff to you, can't you let us know the truth of the matter? !

No matter how unwilling they were, they knew that Dumbledore's will could not be violated, so they left here obediently.

However, Fred and George were obviously not obedient masters. They returned here within two minutes of leaving. At this time, the two of them each held a telescopic ear in their hands, ready to show off their skills.

Then they encountered a problem: Dumbledore's office had no door! There is really "no way", because the door is hidden by magic, and they can't even think of inserting the telescopic ears into the crack of the door.

The four people left dejectedly. As for the snowball fight, they had no intention of having a snowball fight, and they went straight to the lounge.

On the way back to the lounge, Qiu Zhang remembered something and asked Harry: "So...who are you going to go to the Yule Ball with in the end?"

At this time, she had given up thinking about introducing someone to Harry - the dance was about to start tonight, and where was the girl who hadn't been invited yet? You can't let Harry go dancing with first- and second-grade children, right?

"Parvati." Harry said a name.

Qiu Zhang whistled, "Awesome! This is a very beautiful girl!"

Harry avoided Qiu Zhang's gaze. He wanted to say "I'm not pretty", but he didn't have the courage.

Looking at the appearance of the two of them, Fred and George felt that their sister was probably in trouble - Ginny agreed to Neville's invitation and became his dance partner.

This choice left Fred and George speechless.

…

"Headmaster Dumbledore, please!" Issa May thanked Dumbledore seriously.

"Nothing." Dumbledore looked indifferent. He had long known that Karkaroff was controlled by someone using the Imperius Curse, but he was able to break free so quickly, which surprised Dumbledore.

However, after checking Karkaroff's status, Dumbledore also figured out the reason: the Imperius Curse in Karkaroff had not been strengthened for a long time. As time went by, the spell's control over him gradually decreased, and he finally regained a little sense of autonomy and began to fight against the spell.

Judging from the results, he succeeded.

After figuring out the situation, Dumbledore helped Karkaroff remove the Imperius Curse. Karkaroff's small eyes gradually became brighter.

Then he shuddered and trembled all over. It wasn't until he saw Dumbledore that he slowly calmed down. Then, Karkaroff hugged Dumbledore's thigh and cried loudly.

At this time, both Issa May and Dumbledore were in embarrassment.

"Igor, calm down first..." Dumbledore pulled Karkaroff off his lap and listened patiently to Karkaroff's story with tears in his eyes. He had already known all this, but at this moment he was still listening carefully as if hearing it for the first time.

Issa May covered her forehead. She felt that with such an embarrassing principal, Durmstrang would never be able to raise his head in the magical world again. She felt that it was necessary to establish a series of connections after returning to see if Karkaroff could be ousted from the position of principal.

"Okay, Igor, you go to the infirmary to recover. I will take care of everything else." Dumbledore comforted Karkaroff gently.

After hearing what Dumbledore said, Karkaroff seemed to have found a backbone. He nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and took Issa May straight to the school hospital.

Dumbledore looked at the two people leaving with a faint look in his eyes.

What happened in the principal's office did not have any impact on the students on the field. They were still having snowball fights happily.

"It's only five o'clock!" Tom looked at Hermione in disbelief: "The dance doesn't start until eight o'clock!"

Hermione, on the other hand, had already decided to leave, leaving only a shadow of Tom's back. She was going back to the lounge to get ready for the dance.

Looking at Hermione leaving, Tom felt a little uneasy: She had prepared so seriously, did he have to do something?

So he also left the snowball fight battlefield and went back to the lounge to prepare. He first took a bath and then dried his hair by the fireplace in the lounge.

At seven o'clock in the evening, after the sky darkened, the little wizards returned to the castle one after another, and everyone began to prepare for the dance.

Tom returned to the dormitory and took out the robe that Hermione had customized for herself during the summer vacation. He changed into his robe in front of the mirror, then combed his hair carefully and sprayed some perfume on himself.

The background color of this dress robe is foggy blue, and it is embellished with astrological images, giving it a mysterious and profound look. After putting on this robe, Tom looked much more mature.

After confirming that he was ready, Tom returned to the lounge. At this time, the lounge has changed greatly. The students of Ravenclaw College are no longer all black robes and blue ties, but are wearing a variety of colorful formal robes.

Tom met Hermione's roommate Padma Patil in the common room. She was Ron's dance partner - thanks to Harry, Ron found an extremely beautiful dance partner in the form of buy one get one free.

Padma Patil wore an Indian-style bright green robe, her black hair was tied up with a gold belt, and the gold bracelets on her wrists sparkled. As he walked, various gold accessories swayed in the wind, making tinkling sounds. Today she looks very beautiful and stunning.

After seeing Tom, Padma showed a very complicated expression.

"A very beautiful robe." She complimented.

"Hermione ordered it for me."

"That's great." The look of envy in her eyes became even stronger.

After chatting for a while, Padma glanced at the time and found that it was getting late, so she took the initiative to say goodbye to Tom: "I have to go to the hall to meet my sister, see you later - by the way, you will be here tonight There’s a surprise.”

The men and women in the lounge gradually merged and headed to the auditorium, which also made the bustling common room a little deserted. When the clock hands gradually pointed to eight o'clock, Hermione finally appeared.
