The Emerald at Hogwarts

Ada and the other three looked at the parchment with expressionless faces. They really couldn't figure out what the usefulness of this paper was.Fred and George turned the parchment over and looked at it several times, but the parchment was still parchment, nothing had changed.

"Take a look, maybe you can come up with something?" George handed the parchment to Ada.

Taking the parchment, Ada looked at it carefully for a while, but found no clues.She placed the parchment on the table, pulled out her wand and pointed it at the parchment, "Reveal your true form!"

The parchment showed no reaction, still retaining its worn appearance.

"Emergency appearance!" This spell did not take effect, as if it were just a piece of paper, and there were no secrets on it.

Ada tapped the parchment several times with her wand and continued to chant the incantation about the appearance, but it also had no effect at all. The old parchment still looked like it had no oil or salt in it.

Ada spread her hands and said that she was powerless.

In desperation, George had no choice but to put the parchment away.He said: "It seems that it will take a lot of time for us to find out its secrets."

"I hope the time and effort we put in are worth it. This parchment can give me a different surprise." Fred said.

"I hope so, I hope it deserves its 'extremely dangerous' rating." Ada also said.

After the three extremely sleepy people said good night to each other, they went back to their dormitories to rest. There was still a lot of "work" waiting for them tomorrow.

The next day, everyone quickly figured out the reason why Gryffindor's points dropped again.Regarding the twin brothers who were deducted points again, no one did anything drastic. The Gryffindors just decided to let the twin brothers dry out and let them do what they wanted.

The twins, who were deducted points and left out in the cold, accepted Filch's punishment at night - cleaning the boys' bathroom.Professor McGonagall did not allow the two brothers to use magic, and the [Cleaning Spell] the twins had just learned lost its effect, which made Fred and George miserable.

When the two brothers returned to the common room with a strange smell all over their bodies, Ada was sitting in the common room and writing hard.The double amount of homework caused Ada a lot of trouble and wasted a lot of her practice time.

The three of them would get together from time to time to discuss the precious parchment, but they could never find a clue or how to start.

It's getting colder at Hogwarts in December, and Christmas and the holidays are just around the corner.

A week before vacation, the twins were finally relieved of their punishment of cleaning the boys' bathroom, and Ada was freed from double the amount of homework.During this time, Ada's hand speed has been greatly improved, and she thought she could consider writing homework to earn some extra money.

Earn every galleon through your hard work.

The snow covering the campus became thicker and thicker, and the surface of the Black Lake was also covered with hard ice. The students gathered with their friends and had a tense and exciting snowball fight in the school.

Ada, Angelina, Aaliyah, and Lee Jordan teamed up to face the twin brothers in a four-on-two battle.

From the very beginning of this snowball fight, the four Adas, who were outnumbered, fell into a bitter fight.The twin brothers firmly have the upper hand with their unparalleled tacit understanding.Angelina and Aaliyah were no match for the twins. They were defeated by George, leaving Ada, Lee Jordan and the twins to fight against each other.

Ada, who was continuously hit by snowballs, finally became "angry" and decided to let these children see what a real snowball fight is.Can throwing a few snowballs at each other and raising a large amount of snowflakes be called a snowball fight?

Obviously not!

Under Ada's command, Angelina and Aaliyah finally plucked up the courage to start a frantic confrontation with George, attracting his attention and stretching the defense.

Ada and Lee Jordan braved Fred's "rain of bullets" and rushed in front of him. They teamed up to knock Fred to the ground, who had the most ferocious firepower, and buried him in a snowdrift.Then she and Lee Jordan followed the same pattern and buried George beside them.

"You two have lost your prestige...haha..." Lee Jordan looked down at the twins lying in the snowdrift, laughing and saying.

But before he could finish speaking, three girls threw him to the ground, and he ended up with the same fate as the twins. The "smug" Qiao didn't even notice the three girls behind him who kept exchanging glances. He was buried in the snowdrift because of his own carelessness, and he couldn't blame others.

The twins did see the girls' conspiracy, but how could they tell Li Jordan?

After knocking down Lee Jordan, Ada also planned to step forward and ridicule him, but she did not make the same mistake as Lee Jordan.

Ada first looked back at Angelina and Aaliyah, and when she saw the two of them cleaning the snow off their bodies, she felt relieved and started to laugh at them: "You three...ah!"

Before Ada could fire the map cannon, Angelina and Aaliya buried her too. The two of them had just pretended to clean up her clothes, but in fact they were paralyzing Ada and making her relax her guard.

The two girls who succeeded in the sneak attack celebrated with high fives, while the three losers, the twins and Lee Jordan, loudly laughed at the fourth loser, Ada.Ada, who taught her apprentices to starve their master to death, lay in the snowdrift speechless and asked: "If you have to fight in a snowball fight, the world will not be good..."

Seeing that Angelina was still celebrating the victory with Alia, Ada was unwilling to provoke her. She said: "The only one who is still standing at the end is the only winner!"

After hearing what she said, the two little girls became wary of each other. Neither one wanted to be taken advantage of by the other.The four people who fell on the ground started to argue again. In the end, what was supposed to be a four-on-two battle of varying strengths and weaknesses turned into a melee between six people.

The six people who had a great time went back to the common room to change their clothes wetly. Perhaps they needed a cup of Nine-Nine Cold Cold Spirit each more than dry clothes.

This method of snowball fights was inherited and carried forward by other Gryffindor students in the days that followed.As long as there is snow on the school playground, you can see "small snowdrifts" one after another. People who don't know it may think they are walking into a cemetery.

When the students gathered in the auditorium for dinner, Professor McGonagall began to count the list of students who stayed in school for the holidays. Ada's friends all had to leave school and go home for the holidays, but she was the only one who chose to stay in school.

Fred and George invited Ada to spend Christmas at the Weasleys, but Ada refused.Ada had already made plans for this Christmas, and she felt that it would be better for her family to get together on Christmas Day, so that she, a foreigner, would not mess around.

When Professor McGonagall came over, Ada signed the stay list without hesitation. It would be perfect if Snape didn't stay at school this Christmas either.

In the last few days before the Christmas holidays, Fred and George would always appear near Hagrid, greeting Hagrid enthusiastically, and trying their best to help Hagrid, even though Hagrid didn't need their help at all.

The reason why the two brothers did this was not only to get some more information about the Forbidden Forest from Hagrid, but also because they felt guilty about coaxing Hagrid.

The walls of the auditorium were covered with hanging ribbons of holly and mistletoe, and a dozen towering Christmas trees stood around. Some of the trees were hung with small sparkling icicles, and some were lit with hundreds of candles.

These decorations were all completed by Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick. The two worked together to decorate the auditorium with a festive atmosphere, which made the students look forward to the upcoming holidays even more.

Just like this, amid all the anticipation, the Christmas holiday has finally arrived.
