MTL - Harry Potter’s Morning Light-Chapter 2720 Land of Firebirds (28)
Chapter 2720 Firebird Land (28)
Near the corridor of the library on the second floor, there is a portrait of Helena Ravenclaw.
It doesn’t talk like the other portraits, let alone sing and socialize like the Fat Lady, who befriends another portrait of a woman in a purple hat.
The woman in the purple hat has no name, people call her Violet. She also has a small portrait painted in a small room in the hall, so she can witness "big events" such as the sorting ceremony, using the Goblet of Fire to choose the "champion" during the Triwizard Tournament, and then return to the portrait of the grand staircase to describe herself to other portraits what I heard and saw.
The portrait of Helena is always quiet and alone like her ghost. She wears the gray-blue dress she had when she was alive, with a rose-colored flush on her face and berry-red lips. You can't even recognize the Ravenclaw's ghostly Cinderella in the portrait.
But there is a secret passage behind her portrait, which can lead to the "Central Corridor", which is part of the dungeon, and can freely lead to such things as the House of Doom, the Hall of Darkness, and the duel room exclusive to Slytherin. The place.
The House of Doom originally stored a large number of powerful spells. It is said that they can produce the same effect as the Doomsday Judgment, but it is currently empty. The dark hall is used for discussions and some secret gatherings. The duel area is composed of two huge stone snakes, and the participants are on the statue during the duel.
In addition, this corridor will also lead to the house of runes and the house of hieroglyphs. The house of runes is specially used to store and study ancient runes. The house of hieroglyphs has a secret passage leading to the Slytherin lounge. There is a portrait of the **** Barlow in the corridor outside.
He, like Helena's portrait, is silent, and it's easy to ignore them if you like boisterous people, ghosts, and portraits, and they don't like to greet people like Nearly Headless Nick, Fat Friar.
While others were busy watching Harry Potter, dragons, Yule Balls, and other excitement, Neville, at Pomona's request, watched Beauxbatons' students, and if any of them really thought Hogwarts If Ci didn't destroy Nick Flamel's Philosopher's Stone and wanted to get it back.
So Neville found a room in the dungeon. If the Bloody Baron went to the Astronomy Tower again, Neville would go there to continue his herbal alchemy experiments.
Neville wasn't afraid of Barrow the Bloody Man, because of his amnesia, he often forgot the password to the Gryffindor lounge before the fourth grade, causing him to sleep outside the lounge.
Although ghosts can pass through the walls, except for the ghosts of this school, ghosts from other colleges are not allowed to enter. Neville was sleeping outside the lounge one day when he heard creepy footsteps, and then he saw a **** Barrow walking towards him...
Barrow's use of scaring as a pastime is not just for Gryffindor, Slytherin also has his "victims". In a sense, Barrow loves "pranks" like Peeves.
During this period of time, Peeves didn't know why, but he suddenly liked to throw the portrait of Paracelsus on the heads of the students passing by that corridor, which dissatisfied both the portrait and the students.
Pomona chose to take a detour when passing that corridor, she didn't want Peeves to run into the kitchen to make trouble again. The last time he swam in the soup for the whole school, even if he was a ghost, no one would be able to drink the pot of soup, so he had to pour it all down.
Finally she came to Ravenclaw's headmaster's office, and Felicity's door was left open as always, even though doing so would bring the howling cold Scottish wind into the office, and the fire in the fireplace was blown out by the wind, which could not provide warmth.
"You're as cold as an owl shack here, Felius." Pomona complained, closing the door behind her.
"But my place is clean, and there are no flying feathers." Fei Liwei put down the quill pen in his hand to correct the paper, "What do you want to do?"
Pomona puts a large jug of Butterbeer on his table.
"I prefer canyon water." Fei Liwei said.
"It's too cold, you should drink something hot on such a cold day." Pomona said affectionately.
"It's still the same question, what do you want to do?" Fei Liwei asked.
"I'm having a little trouble... I have some wine in the cellar to deal with."
"Do you want to sell to Ross?" Feliwei said, "I can help you talk about it."
Pomona looked at Feliwei suspiciously.
"Didn't you say that you need help?" Fei Liwei said cryptically.
"Yeah, I need help." Pomona teased. "By the way, you can find a chance to talk to her, right? Felius."
He looked terribly embarrassed, raised his hand, and with just one finger the sheet music floated across the shelf.
"If you have nothing else to do, I'm off to rehearsal."
Pomona looked at the sanctimonious Felix with a sneer.
"I want to give those wines to the monks in the portraits." Pomona said after a while, "Can you help me with this?"
"Of course." Fei Liwei said relaxedly, "It's easy to do."
Pomona couldn't imagine how this would be such a small effort, but now that he had said yes, Pomona said, "Do you need me to help you with something?"
Feliwei looked at her strangely, "I thought you asked me to help."
"Yeah," Pomona said.
"If you ask me to do a favor and I ask you to do me a favor, it's not a favor, Pomona, it's a deal."
"I don't think so," she said immediately.
"I know, you're just used to dealing with Slytherins." Felix said casually, then opened the door and walked out of the office.
Pomona immediately chased him out.
"I want to help you. I know that it is difficult for a male dean to deal with female students." Pomona said next to Felicity.
"I don't think there is any problem to deal with!" Fei Liwei's voice was torn apart by the wind, so he raised his voice.
"Oh, really?" Pomona asked sharply, "Then do you know who 'pranked' and got Luna Lovegood and Cho Chang up?"
"They all found it in the end." Fei Liwei said.
"Yeah, it took a lot of work, Qiu Zhang almost missed the Christmas ball with Cedric, and had to ask her mother to send another dress." Pomona also raised her voice, "And this time Also, don’t tell me you didn’t notice it at all!”
Felix stopped.
"Why don't you say 'there is no student in my college who took part in giving Harry the love potion'." Pomona said imitating Felicity's tone.
Pomona really wanted to ask Fei Liwei if he still planned to keep a distance from humans and not interfere in human affairs, so let these children "grow naturally", just like wild trees, without being pruned artificially.
"I'm sorry, Pomona, I will pay attention to what you said." Felix said calmly, "Do you have anything else to do?"
Pomona did not continue to pester Felicity to ask her to "help", that would make her appear crazy and nosy, just like the second Umbridge.
"I have to go." Feliwei raised the score in Yang's hand, and then walked away.
Pomona originally wanted to discuss something else with him, but now he had to give up.
"Why don't you like butterbeer?" she muttered, walking in the other direction.
==================================================== ========
It was Luna who later stood out from the crowd of "competitors", although she did not mix Harry's pumpkin juice with the love potion.
The girls are also less hostile towards her, probably because Luna cheers on Gryffindor Quidditch with a lion's head.
But compared to these "shocks", what Pomona didn't expect was that Draco Malfoy, like Ron, was not invited by Slughorn, and was caught by Filch while he was wandering in the corridor.
Sixth grades don't need to abide by the school rule that they have to go back to the dormitory at 9 o'clock. Filch used the reason that Draco was not invited. And Neville, Pomona kept asking him who he was bringing to the party, but he never said. In the summer vacation of that year, Pomona let Neville stay at Scamander's house, and he insisted on taking a taxi back and forth every day. Not wanting to do what she said. Apparently, Neville also has his own opinions on the issue of "combination".
Pomona couldn't get angry with Neville, so he could only direct his anger at Slughorn, forbidding him to come closer to the greenhouse.
Now Georgiana looked away.
She is also not so good at the art of language, and diplomatic rhetoric. There are so many celebrities together, and there is still some time before dinner, it is impossible to just talk about the little girl's love affair. She kept talking about this matter, but it seemed that she was going to target someone, or that she should take a bench to the street to find someone to talk to. Why did Bonaparte bring such a woman out? Could it be that he was really controlled by her curse?
So Georgiana temporarily arranged a cello recital, which was performed by Dibol, who once worked in the court of Frederick the Great. He was the only one on the stage, without actors or ballets. Others thought it was new, even if they couldn’t hear it. You can also sit and chat.
Di Boer organized his own symphony orchestra, and they have cooperated very well. When playing music, it sounds extremely harmonious and pleasant, making people relaxed and comfortable.
The Duchess of La Rochefoucauld was hit on the head and was wearing a hat to attend the event. Although her daughter's disappearance and rumors made her worry, she did not search for it like Madame Fabolt. Not far from her is General MacDonald, who is about to serve as ambassador to Denmark and who is chatting with the Danish Finance Minister.
He participated in the Brumaire coup, but he also publicly supported Moreau, so he stayed away from Paris?
Georgiana took out her fan and swished it open.
Although it was still cold in the unfinished small theater, the fire in her heart was very hot. She thought that fanning the wind would calm her down, but she didn't expect that the fire would get hotter and hotter.
