Wo Bu Geng Xin
But not everyone can perceive the beauty of this scene as Harry does.There was no mirth on Marcus's face as he sat in the Slytherin seat.Even the girl he likes is smiling at him.He could only return a stiff smile.
"You're not in the right shape today."
Beside him, a friend who was familiar with him looked at his face and said something strange.
"Isn't it right? Isn't that fellow Nott's complexion worse?"
Marcus replied casually.
The person who asked him the question had a question mark on his face.
Does the question I just asked have anything to do with the answer he gave?
But seeing that Marcus had no desire to chat anymore, he stopped caring about this guy, picked up a piece of skull-shaped candy and stuffed it into his mouth.
This is a new Halloween limited item from Honeydukes Candy Shop, Barilla Skull Candy.It is the same production concept as Bibi Multi-flavored Beans, but there are 100 flavors in total.
"Well, it's chocolate-flavored. You're lucky."
He said with a cheerful smile.
At this time, Marcus also wanted to take a piece of candy to calm himself down.But when he turned his head, he saw Luke surrounded by several girls not far away.
As if aware of his gaze, Luke also looked at him, and gave him a bright smile.
Marcus shuddered.
However, he unconsciously picked up a piece of candy and stuffed it into his mouth.
In fact, he was just subconsciously reacting here.And when the weird taste exploded in his mouth, he finally reacted and spit out the candy in his mouth.
"Bah! It smells like slugs! Bad luck!"
he yelled angrily.
The face of the friend around him changed, and then he asked tentatively, "Bro, Marcus, how do you know what a slug smells like?"
Marcus' face completely darkened.
"What are you looking at?"
While observing Luke's expression, Gemma rummaged through the pile of candies in front of her.
Luke smiled and said, "It's nothing, I'm just looking at an orangutan who I tricked with a banana."
Gemma was not confused by Luke's words. She followed Luke's eyes and saw Marcus, a very familiar guy.
"What kind of bananas did you use?"
Gemma asked curiously.
"Brooms, just a few brooms."
Luke said it was easy.But Gemma is not an idiot either, she knows with her toes that she is definitely not a simple broom.
And the price of Nimbus 2000... she felt dizzy just thinking about it.
"I think I have to seriously consider whether I want to take over your business." Gemma said half-jokingly, "With a boss like you who spends a lot of money, I don't think my earning ability may be enough."
"You should be more careful. But even losing money is a trivial matter."
Luke said with a smile, but that's all he said, without too much explanation.Gemma gave him a deep look.Then I sighed with Luke's determination in the bottom of my heart.
Then I felt someone gently tugging on my sleeve.
She looked over and found that she had been following Luke, the mysterious girl who didn't like to talk.
The long bangs on her face covered her eyes and covered most of her appearance.But Gemma had seen the eyes under the bangs.As long as the bangs are separated, this must be a girl who can make most boys crazy.
Although Gemma herself said that she was a little unwilling, she still had to admit that her face, which she always thought was not bad, turned out to be really not bad in front of this girl named Taylor.
Taylor didn't care about Gemma's strange thoughts, but silently put the things in his hands into Gemma's hands.
Gemma looked down, and a piece of black chocolate in the shape of a bat was stuffed into her hand.
She let out a sound first, and then looked at Taylor in surprise.
Taylor smiled at her.
Gemma first stuffed the chocolate into her mouth, then took a deep breath, quickly and gently clamped Taylor's cheeks with her hands.
The thin face had no sensuality, and then the bangs were disturbed, revealing the eyes shining like stars.
"So sweet! Little Taylor!"
Gemma looked at the stunned and helpless face, and suddenly became playful, and directly pressed her face to Taylor's, and then rubbed it.
Luke looked at the naughty Gemma and the dull Taylor in front of him, and was speechless for a while.The atmosphere seems to be a little bit better today, so everyone has let go of themselves.
It's not just Gemma and Taylor.Even Percy was eager to give Ravenclaw a try.
There are more people, candy, festivals, celebrations, and it really can still arouse human nature.
But Luke just glanced at everyone calmly, with scrutiny and scrutiny hidden in his eyes.
Now he is like a high-ranking king, watching everyone.
His fingers tapped lightly on the table, as if playing a silent movement.
After all, candy can't be the main course, and the main purpose of tonight's party is not for everyone to socialize, so a large number of festive dishes were also served on the table.
But Luke was still speechless looking at the skull-shaped cake in front of him.
Skulls, no problem, a common decoration for wizards.There is no problem with cake, a food that everyone eats regularly.
However, the skull-shaped cake is still a bit too advanced for Luke.
But the few people around him ate with gusto.It made him seem a little out of place.
"Why don't you eat?"
Tyler's voice rang in Luke's ear.
Xun Sheng looked over and found that Taylor was eating a pumpkin-shaped pudding in small bites, and he didn't move a bit about the skull cake.
"It's nothing, I'm just thinking, I'm afraid something will happen after a while."
Luke whispered in Taylor's ear.
Tyler glanced at Luke and saw the seriousness behind his relaxed smile.
So the relaxation on her face also restrained a lot, and she couldn't help but look at the closed door over there. She also knew that if there was any bad news, it must come from the door.
Suddenly, she seemed to sense something was wrong.
Taylor looked at the people around him, they were very happy, so happy that they felt a little happy.
"You... can you do it now?"
Taylor just opened her mouth, but her voice still rang in Luke's ear.
Luke didn't reply, just nodded with a smile.
Tyler took a sip of pumpkin juice to cover up the gaffe on his face.
But after the glass was put down, Taylor still had a big smile on his face.
This is good news, no doubt about it.
Harry has been paying attention to the situation on Luke's side.
Although he is very happy now, the uneasiness in his heart has never disappeared.
Harry glanced at the positions of the teachers above, and found that although there were many teachers and many professors he didn't know for the time being, there were still three familiar figures missing after all.
"Dumbledore isn't already fighting Quirrell and Snape, is he?"
Ron leaned close to Harry's ear and guessed without any basis.
Although it was unreasonable to say this, Harry still couldn't help but his heart skipped a beat.
"Probably not. If Luke just told Dumbledore about it, then he wouldn't have to hide it from us."
Harry's mind is still very flexible, at least in this kind of thing, he can still react.Of course, he himself is not very sure, after all, this seems to be the easiest way to deal with it so far.
"Did your expedition come to anything, Ron?"
Fred looked at the two whispering, with a smile on his face, and interrupted them.
"You are joking, Fred, if he really has achieved something, how could he not tell us until now?"
George let out a hearty laugh, which also caused a group of people around him to laugh.
To be honest, although the words sounded like sarcasm, the concern in that tone was obvious.
In other words, they really cared about their younger brother, but in a unique way.
Ron subconsciously wanted to show off his long-held secret in front of his brothers.But when the words came to his lips, he still endured it, didn't say anything, but said sullenly: "It's none of your business!"
The others on the side thought it was just being stubborn, so they laughed even louder.
But the big laugh on George's and Fred's faces turned into a smile.Looking at each other a little bit, they both noticed the worry in each other's eyes.
They are very clear that what Harry and Ron are investigating now is different from what the two of them are investigating at Luke's request, but the final point is the same.And just as dangerous.
The twins looked at Ron, and the last bit of their smile faded away.
"If you need help, Ron, remember to ask us both."
After being silent for a while, Fred said in a solemn tone.
Although George didn't speak, he nodded heavily.
Ron stared blankly at the expressions of the two brothers, then nodded blankly.
"What adventure are you going on again? You are violating school rules, do you know that! You will deduct points from Gryffindor! You..."
Fred rolled his eyes at Percy's voice.
"We are still the prefect's younger brother. We should set an example for others, right? Well, well, stop talking. We all know it."
"Boring." George said ruthlessly.
And looked at Percy's angry and helpless expression.Everyone laughed again.
Gryffindor seemed to be in a sea of joy.
But none of the four Weasley brothers, nor Harry himself laughed.
They didn't think it was funny, only they didn't understand and doubt each other.
The Weasley brothers, who were able to maintain harmony in the first place, eventually had a rift ahead of time.
There must be Luke's reasons for this, but I'm afraid it's more because of his way of thinking is very different after all.
"George, do you know why Snape... and Professor Quirrell didn't come?"
Harry asked.
"We don't know the reason, but... Maybe you can see the location yourself."
George seemed to have intentions, and said as if he had no intention of doing so.
Harry froze for a moment, and immediately realized what they meant.
He thumped his thigh in frustration.
Damn, forgot about this one.They can use the Marauder's Map to check the location!
So he looked at Ron. Today, the map is kept by Ron.
Ron looked at Harry's expectant eyes, and his face fell instantly.
"In the classroom, I forgot to bring it when I changed my clothes."
Harry opened his mouth, his eyes widened in disbelief.
Ron shrank his neck subconsciously, he was ready to be punished.
And at this moment, the originally closed door was suddenly pushed open!
The original cheerful and relaxed atmosphere was instantly broken.Everyone closed their mouths together, as if they had been locked down at the same time, and looked at the door not far away, as well as Professor Quirrell who pushed the door in.
"There's a troll! In the corridor!"
He was out of breath and looked panicked.
There was also blood on his body, and it didn't look like someone else's blood.
"Calm down, Professor Quirrell, it's just a troll."
Professor McGonagall hurriedly spoke, not to comfort Quirrell, but more to comfort the students who had begun to panic.
"That's right, just trolls, Professor Quirrell. They're easy to deal with."
Hagrid had already stood up and picked up his umbrella, but under Professor McGonagall's gaze, he put down his little pink umbrella, rolled up his sleeves, and clenched his fists.
Their words, while appeasing everyone, also attracted everyone's attention.
Seeing this, the corner of Luke's mouth twitched.
If the Juggernaut of Gryffindor is the future Neville Longbottom, then the Hogwarts champion is definitely Rubeus Hagrid.
Those who don't believe it can try it, the feeling of hitting the face with a fist as big as a casserole.
"It's not over!"
Quirrell shouted suddenly, attracting everyone's attention again.
"There's also one... Voldebat... and two Manticores."
As soon as this is said, don't talk about Luke.Even Professor McGonagall was stunned.
Trolls are not dangerous.This thing's intelligence is not high. Although its combat effectiveness is acceptable, it should not be too easy to deal with.
But the latter two, three... If they are not cleared, Hogwarts will probably be uninhabitable the next day.
"Professors followed me to check. Students stay where they are, don't move!"
Professor McGonagall gave the order decisively.
"Professor Sprout, please stay here and watch the students. Professor Flitwick, please get up and find the headmaster and Professor Snape immediately, we need their help."
The two professors nodded in unison and had no objection to this arrangement.
Some of the students knew about these three magical animals, and some didn't.Some are afraid, some are answering.
Only Luke was very calm.
Then, he glanced at Marcus not far away.
