Chapter 356 Christmas Ball

Hogwarts teachers and students want to impress guests at Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, and they seem determined to put their best foot forward at the castle this Christmas.

The school was decorated with lights and colorful decorations. The handrails of the marble stairs were covered with icicles that would never melt. The twelve Christmas trees usually placed in the auditorium were decorated with various baubles. From shiny holly berries to live golden owls that hoot incessantly.

The armors were enchanted so that they would sing Christmas carols whenever anyone passed by.

In the Slytherin common room, students gathered together to eat snacks or read the "Wizard Fashion Weekly" review of the current season's new styles.

Cassius and his roommate Graham were copying homework. They played like crazy in the first week of the vacation and didn't touch a word of the vacation homework. Now that the vacation is halfway over, in order to play with peace of mind in the next few days, Cassius Si can only copy a little bit to reduce the workload.

"I said, Cassius, where did you get this?" The big man Graham looked at the homework they were copying and said naively, "Why do I feel something is wrong."

"Something's wrong? I don't think anything's wrong." Cassius said while writing quickly, "I borrowed it from Cairngar of Hufflepuff. I said a lot of good things before I borrowed it. What's wrong?"

The quill pen in Graham's hand slowly stopped, and he said with an embarrassed expression, "Well, I'd better not copy it. I'll find a way to write it myself."

"What are you doing? Okay, it's up to you." Cassius hadn't noticed the seriousness of the matter yet.

That Keenger was also a regular at the bottom of his grade. He dared to copy his homework. When the time came, he made so many mistakes, but the key mistakes were all the same. Professor McGonagall would definitely find out.

Fortunately, Sean didn't have to do his vacation homework. He had already mastered the ice magic he stole from Krum, and Watson's two ice magics also mastered the "ice barrier".

Sean cleaned every corner of the dormitory. When the weather got cold, Jerry's fur became very thick, causing gray and white fur to float in the dormitory every day.

As soon as Sean opened the door, a big dog swooped out and ran into the common room. Oh no, that was the increasingly plump cat Jerry, who was now almost as big as a husky.

"Oh my god, Sean, get it away quickly, it's going to ruin my homework." Cassius screamed bitterly.

Sean came over and said in a teasing tone, "It's Christmas today, and you're actually doing your homework. This doesn't look like you at all."

"Your back hurts when you stand and talk." Cassius rolled his eyes at him.

At this time, Chrissy walked out of the dormitory. As Sean's dance partner tonight, she had to confirm some things with Sean.

"Sean, your dress has been ironed."

Sean said, "Uncle Hearns just sent it the day before yesterday. It's brand new and customized. No need to iron it."

Before the holiday, Sean reported his body measurements to Hearns and asked him to go to Madam Malkin's robe store to customize a dress for himself. Chris suggested that he go to Tuofan Clothing Store to order it. The level is higher, specializing in high-end clothing.

But Sean doesn't think it's necessary. Although he can afford it now, he has no pursuit in terms of clothes. If he hadn't grown taller in the past few years, he would have wanted to take out the dress that Snape gave him in the second grade. wore.

"Let's iron it. We are lining up as representatives. When the time comes, everyone's eyes will be on us. We have to do our best."

"Ah, I remembered. It was a new style of dress. Madam Malkin added the magic of automatic ironing." Sean said matter-of-factly.

"Really?" Chris stared at him, seeming to see through his clumsy lies at a glance.

"Okay, I'm going to iron now." Sean had no choice but to spread his hands and return to the dormitory.

The dance started at 8 o'clock in the evening and ended at 12 o'clock in the evening, but it was only five o'clock, and Hermione had already started to dress up.

The stubborn Harry finally formed a team with Parvati, an Indian girl in the class, while Ron teamed up with Parvati's sister Padma.

Everyone dressed up carefully for this dance. The one from a wealthy family could tell from his clothing, the workmanship of the fabrics and the expensive jewelry.

At half past seven, the students came out of the dormitory one after another, and Harry was still urging Ron, who was grinding.

"are you done?"

"It'll be ready soon, ironing the wrinkles." Ron replied.

The Weasley family now has some money, and Ron begged his mother to buy him a second-hand modern dress. However, Sean felt a bit regretful that he could not see the retro dress, which he thought was quite unique.

The door of the auditorium was still closed and would not open until eight o'clock sharp. Everyone was crowded in the foyer. Some people wanted to meet their dance partners from other colleges, so they squeezed sideways through the crowd to look for each other.

"Look at what Malfoy is wearing." Ron tapped Draco with his chin.

Harry looked along and saw that Draco was wearing a black velvet high-collar custom-made ceremonial robe. With his slicked back hair, he looked a bit handsome, but Harry thought he looked more like a vicar.

Draco's dance partner, who was Pansy Parkinson in the original plot, is now third-year Astoria. This child is growing up really fast. She is already tall and graceful at the age of 13. In addition, she is a lady, and her elegant temperament is not inferior to that of Kris, who is in the sixth grade. However, she looks more gentle than Kris.

Lenno's dark blue dress looked expensive, and next to him was the gorgeous Fleur.

In the original plot, Fleur formed a team with Roger Davis from Ravenclaw. Now Babston's players have basically digested it internally. The two boys who were left alone were also found through Penello's introduction. Dance partner.

Watson, who was afraid of society, also came very reluctantly, and his dance partner was also introduced to him by Penello. As for Dusana, who has strong social skills, he found a girl in Hufflepuff as his companion.

"Where did Hermione go?" Ron asked stupidly.

Harry had been absent-minded because he failed to invite Cho Chang, which was very unfair to his dance partner Parvati.

"I don't know, maybe in the back."

At this time, Professor McGonagall's voice sounded, "Warriors, please come here!"

Krum walked in the front, flanked by a beautiful girl in blue robes whom Harry didn't recognize, but this was their Hermione.

Others entered the auditorium first after the door opened. After everyone was seated, Professor McGonagall asked the warriors and their dance partners to line up two by two and follow her in.

"Well, Chris, take me with you later so that I don't step on your feet." Sean said.

Chrissy looked down at her polished white high heels, glared at Sean and said, "If you step on them, you'll be dead."

Madame Maxime took off her usual black satin uniform and wore a lavender flowing robe, and her dance partner, to everyone's surprise, was Hagrid, who also had giant blood.

Ron was sulking because Hermione and Krum were too close, but in such a pleasant atmosphere, he didn't notice him. Even his dance partner Padma only accompanied him to make up the numbers.

At 12 o'clock at midnight, the dance was about to end. Some people were still not satisfied, and some were eager to go back early, just like Harry and Ron.
