Chapter 184 Young People
Marne and Esther talked a little bit about the future Miss Malfoy. She had no objections and was very happy.
Another happy person was Draco. I thought he would be a little uncomfortable or something, but he didn't expect that after Narcissa announced the incident during dinner, he turned out to be the happiest person in the room.
But think about it, he has been alone for too long since he was a child. Although there are Goyle and Crabbe...it's okay not to mention them.
There is still one day before the Christmas dinner, but the house has already become lively. A group of people are collecting gifts and opening them. Although this thing should be opened tomorrow, it is obvious that as we grow older, everyone is more concerned about gifts. I didn't care less and less, so I took it apart as soon as I got it.
There is no need to hire someone from the gift shop in Diagon Alley to record the gifts this year. Hogsmeade Village has a huge flow of people and there are all kinds of shops, so we just send someone to the nearest place to take care of it.
"Comptin also gave me a gift. I'll have to ask someone to give him a replacement later... It's been so long since I've seen him that I almost forgot about him." Ma En held up a strange-looking gift and pinched it. Said a small object that would show colorful streams of light.
Margaery came over and said, "He quite understands your preferences..."
"After all, we can be considered good friends..."
"A good friend has stayed in the same village for so long without seeing each other?"
Ma En scratched his head: "This is an accident... I have nothing to do tomorrow morning. I'll go see him."
"You didn't even think about washing your face before going out. You are really..."
It was already very late after opening the gifts. After packing up the ribbons and other things, they were ready to go back to their rooms to sleep. Before going to bed, Margaery warned: "Remember to leave no light in the room, otherwise you will definitely You will regret it.”
Everyone took a look at the decorations that were shining brightly under the light, and nodded in unison.
After returning to the room and washing up a little, Marn and Esther lay on the bed. The bed was so big that Marn felt that he wouldn't be able to fall off if he rolled upside down on it, but no matter how big the bed was, the space they used was still the same. A little bit, it's still the sleeping position I'm used to.
Esther is not a very stunning girl, not to mention Margaery. Even Hermione, who usually looks like a little lion, is much more delicate than her when she is tidied up... Of course, this matter needs to be dialectical. Looking at it, Hermione with her hair tidied up and her hair without tidying up are two different people. There are few girls in the entire Hogwarts who are more delicate-looking than Hermione who tidied up her hair neatly.
Her figure wasn't that good either, she wasn't very tall even though she had stopped growing taller, and her body shape was not comparable to that of a talented player like Nagini, but she was very soft.
She has been dancing since she was a child, and her muscles have not become so tight. Instead, she looks a little fleshy, but not fat. She is just the right kind. When she smiles, her whole body looks very soft. Ma En I really like her smile and the way I feel when I hold her.
"Esther, I'm going to be 14 years old soon..."
"Well, it's amazing."
"...You know what I'm talking about."
"Alas..." Esther sighed, "Dear, I am not a Catholic believer. I am so guarded against certain things, especially you, but the premise is...it cannot be a child..."
"Hey! Esther! I..."
"I know, 13 and a half years old, a teenager, but teenagers are also in the scope of children... In fact, 16 years old is still a child, but at least you are almost developed by then... you can release it appropriately." Esther finished. She let out another breath, and she didn't expect that one day she would be the one restricting others.
Ma En looked at the girl helplessly, and had no choice but to get over his hand addiction for a while, and then go to sleep.
But I still couldn't sleep very well. I was thirteen or fourteen years old, which is the age when I have the power to do harm. It was really uncomfortable to hold it in, but I looked down and saw that Esther was already asleep, although I didn't know whether she was really asleep or pretending to be asleep. , Ma En could only endure it by himself.
Until there was a loud noise outside the window, which instantly diverted all his attention.
"What's going on?" Esther immediately raised his head and looked out the window, with no trace of sleepiness on his face.
Ma En shook his head helplessly: "My dear, you are always good at pretending to be asleep."
"well enough."
"You really are..."
The two of them got up and put on clothes together. When they reached the first floor, everyone came over. Because they lived too high, although they found out early, they were the last to arrive.
Hermione first drove the Grangers who came happily to join in the fun back to the room, and then said when she came back: "I knew this Christmas would not end quietly. These people are really perfect villains. Always jump out when others are happy.”
"Is it Voldemort again?" Marn asked, looking at a bright light in the distance and a few faint streaks of black smoke in the night.
"Who knows, but I don't think anyone would cause such a thing at this time, unless it was a laboratory explosion."
Margery rubbed her sleepy eyes and said, "Normal people would not do such a dangerous experiment on the day before the festival. Do you want to go and have a look?"
"Not that Sirius is here, he should be fine."
"I think we should go over and take a look," Margery pointed to the place where the smoke was coming from. "That's the stone house for treating werewolves. You should all know where the passage under the stone slab leads to..."
Ma En sighed: "Hogwarts. Are these people sick? Why are they always staring at a group of students?"
"Harry is the one in the prophecy after all..." Margaery shrugged.
"He's still at school? I thought he went to Sirius's."
Hermione happened to know about this, and she answered the question: "Sirius is quite busy this year. He has to lead patrols and so on and doesn't have time to take care of Harry, so he didn't let Harry go. Instead, he planned to go to Hogwarts by himself. Christmas."
"Okay, you guys wait for me here, I'll go see what's going on."
Ma En called to Patrick and prepared to go to the stone house to take a look. Just as he was about to leave, Margery grabbed her sleeve: "I will accompany you, so you don't have to run around all the time."
Taking Margaery with him would indeed save a lot of trouble. Ma En just thought about it for a moment before nodding and taking her with him.
After arriving at the place, I took a quick look and found that there were no strange people except Sirius's men. However, a large hole was indeed blown out of the stone slab on the ground, revealing the entrance to the passage that had been there for several years. It was almost as expected.
"Go in and have a look, or go directly to Hogwarts?" Ma En looked at his sister next to him.
"I do not mind."
