Settle at Hogwarts

Chapter 37 Halloween



Tabor was immersed in the study of magic, and seemed a little careless about time and the things around him.

It wasn't until one night that Tabor and Zane went to the auditorium for dinner together and found that the auditorium was decorated with pumpkins of all sizes and hundreds of bats flying on the ceiling, that they were surprised to find that today was actually Halloween.

Tub was sitting on the long Slytherin table, with Zane and Caractacus sitting next to him, while Sylvia was sitting next to her brother Eric, surrounded by fifth-year Slytherins.

At this time, Tabor realized that as the only pure-blood girl in the first grade of Slytherin, Sylvia did not have any friends in the same grade as Slytherin.Except when she was with her brother, she was alone most of the time.

"Hey, Tabor, your eyes are almost glued to Sylvia!" Zane teased in a playful tone.

Tabor looked away and ignored Zane, but glanced in the direction of Gryffindor seemingly casually, but did not find Philly at the Gryffindor long table.

“Zane, Miss Potter hasn’t come back to school yet?”

Before Zane could answer, Clark Tarkus on the other side of Tubo asked in surprise: "You don't know? The Potter family gave her a long-term suspension, at least she won't come for the whole semester. It’s Hogwarts.”

Tabor couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "Is the Hippogriff so powerful? Even St. Mungo's can't completely cure her?"

Zane was already a little surprised by his roommate's appearance of being oblivious to what was going on outside the window. After swallowing the food in his mouth, he explained: "It is said that the one from the Potter family was not in good health to begin with, and he was also affected by I was frightened. Tabor, it’s been so long since I started talking about it, but you have never told me what happened in the Forbidden Forest that day!”

Tabor looked at the curious looks from around him and asked a little strangely: "Don't you all know? Sylvia didn't tell you either?"

Zane and Clark Tarkus shook their heads together.

“Sylvia seems like a different person since she recovered from her injury. I thought you had a conflict with him before, so she ignored me!” Zane pulled a piece of baked golden pie. , complaining carelessly.

Tabor thought for a while and roughly recounted what happened in the Forbidden Forest. He hid the fact that he drank the elixir of happiness, and only gave credit for driving away the Hippogriff to those who arrived later. As for why the professor was imprisoned, Tabor's explanation was that he was a little nervous when he was casting the spell and almost burned down the Forbidden Forest.

Overall, it was plausible. Tabor felt that after listening to his version of the explanation, no one would notice him and disturb his quiet study life.

However, Tabor made some miscalculations. Zane, who had just listened to Tabor's story, immediately asked excitedly: "Did you really burn the Forbidden Forest? Did you burn a large area? Apart from the hippogriff, you Have you encountered any other magical animals?"

Tabor looked at the excited kid in front of him expressionlessly. He really couldn't understand why he almost destroyed public property. What was there to be excited about?

"Tsk, Tabor, you really shouldn't have told Zane what happened to you in the Forbidden Forest. I guess you'll hear many different versions tomorrow, circulating on campus." Clark Takus wiped the corner of his mouth, feeling Nice mention.

Tabor could only shake his head helplessly and stuffed something into his mouth.

"By the way, Tabor, you must not know that there is a show tonight!" Zane approached Tabor with a mysterious look on his face.

"programme?"

Tabor stopped filling his mouth, turned his head, and used his eyes to signal Zane next to him to stop showing off.

"Professor Kettleburn is going to perform a play tonight, and I heard that the principal has agreed."

After swallowing the food in his mouth, Tabor asked with a strange expression: "What kind of play can be performed on Halloween? And Professor Kettleburn is going to play the Fountain of Good Luck, right?"

Zane was about to answer when he looked up and saw Professor Kettleburn had reached the front of the four long tables.

"Good evening everyone. In order to add some fun to the Halloween dinner, I applied to the principal to take up everyone's time after dinner to perform a play." Professor Kettleburn said loudly, attracting the attention of all teachers and students in the auditorium. All the force was attracted to it.

Tubber looked at Professor Kettleburn, who was still intact and extremely high-spirited. It was hard to imagine that he would retire with only one arm and half a leg in the future.

"Then, please enjoy "Fountain of Good Luck"."

The Fountain of Good Luck is on a high hill in a magical garden...

Tabor watched Professor Kettleburn act very carefully. Both the young wizard and the professors in the auditorium were watching with smiles, and suddenly he had a bad feeling in his heart.

First of all, Halloween seems to be an accident-prone time at Hogwarts, and Tubber is sure that Professor Kettleburn, the play, and "The Fountain of Good Luck" are three keywords put together, and the auditorium will definitely be set on fire. event.

However, who knows how many times Professor Kettleburn has acted in plays!

"Zane, Professor Kettleburn is really good in this role. Has he ever acted in a play before?"

Zane thought for a while and then said: "I haven't heard from the seniors. In fact, many seniors are surprised that the professor can perform in plays."

The bad premonition in Tabo's heart seemed to be getting stronger. Tabo didn't know that he knew too much, which was why he felt that sense of foreboding.Or is it because he really awakened the legendary sixth sense, prophecy talent and the like.

When a huge white earthworm appeared wriggling between the two long tables, Taber's uneasy feeling suddenly reached its peak.

“Zane, Caractacus, I always have a bad feeling, you’d better leave the auditorium now.”

Zane was watching with interest, but after being interrupted by Tabor again, his face instantly became unhappy.

Caractacus looked at Tabor's solemn look and asked hesitantly: "Tabor, it seems that the Prince family does not have the blood of prophets. Could it be from your mother? But it seems that there is also the bloodline in France. There are no families famous for divination."

Tabor couldn't help but roll his eyes. He didn't fully believe his feelings, just in case.

After all, if this was the one where the accident happened, the entire auditorium would be on fire, and the first-year students who didn't know many magic spells would definitely be the most vulnerable to injury.

However, Caractacus didn't think about it for long before he stood up and walked out of the auditorium, pulling Zane out with a resentful look on his face.
