Chapter 35 Wine Red Hair, Green Almond Eyes
After the holidays, Halle was very comfortable. Most of the people in the school have left, and those who stay are mostly those who don't want to go home and listen to their parents nagging.
In other words, they don't like reading very much.
So there were not many people in the entire library, not to mention the group of little wizards chattering around and watching him.
What made Harry even happier was that neither Professor Snape nor Hagrid left school during this holiday.
So Harley can go to Hagrid to continue whoring materials for nothing, and by the way, receive private tutoring from Professor Snape.
The only thing that Harry regrets is that because there are not many people in the library, Mrs. Pince especially likes to sit next to Harry and read together.
Although this is a good thing, after all Mrs. Pince also loves reading very much and knows a lot of uncommon magic knowledge.
But this made it impossible for Harley to go around the restricted area to prepare for his invasion.
This life continued until Christmas Eve. On Christmas Eve, Harley did a simple divination for herself, and decided to invade the restricted section of the library tomorrow night.
After all, after everyone enjoys the Christmas dinner, they probably won't have much energy to take precautions!
The next day, Halle was woken up by the hooting of owls.
She opened the curtain sleepily, only to find a lot of owls crowding outside her window.
Although she didn't know what happened, Harry opened the window subconsciously.
The owls squeezed in immediately, and after dropping packages one by one, they wanted to peck Harry twice angrily.
But Harry was agile and didn't give them any chance.
In the end, Halle appeased the owls by contributing a large bag of nuts. At the same time, she also figured out what happened.
Wizards have always used owls to deliver Christmas presents, and I forgot to leave a crack in the window the night before and let the owls in!
In fact, Harry couldn't be blamed, after all, she didn't know about this habit of wizards, and thought that those gifts would be delivered at breakfast just like normal letters.
After a brief wash, Halle began to unwrap her Christmas presents.
Although Harley expected that she would receive many gifts, she really did not expect that there would be so many presents.
Lavender sent Halle a pair of delicate hairpins and matching earrings, while Parvati sent a bottle of potion.
In her words, the bottle of potion was made from the water of the Ganges River, and it could cure all diseases.
However, looking at the cloudy khaki color in the glass bottle, Harry felt that it was better not to use it.
Hagrid gave Harry a lot of potion materials, including unicorn hair, which moved Harry very much.
Of course, this also made Harry determined to teach Hagrid some simple herbal knowledge, because the spirituality in many materials was lost.
Hermione gave Harry a beautifully packaged box containing a bottle of perfume.
However, Harley didn't recognize the brand of the perfume, she just intuitively felt that it should be worth a lot.
The smell of the perfume was not strong, it was a faint fragrance, which reminded Harry of the fragrance on Hermione's body.
Many other classmates, such as Hufflepuff's Hannah and Susan, gave Harry gifts.
Among them, there were a few classmates, but Halle didn't prepare gifts for them, which made Halle a little embarrassed, and decided to make up for it immediately.
At the bottom of all presents is a paper bag and a large box.
Harry first opened the big box, which contained a bottle and a note.
Harry picked up the note and read it, a strange look on his face.
What Professor Snape gave Harry was a bottle of special makeup potion, who could change the color of their hair at will within a week after drinking the potion.
Professor Snape also suggested to Harry that it would be best to turn her hair burgundy.
"This is more suitable for Christmas!" Professor Snape wrote in the note.
Harry muttered about Professor Snape being so careful as he opened the last paper packet.
The paper bag is light, and the inside is a liquid-like, silver-gray fabric.
Harry held it in his hand, and it felt weird to the touch, as if it was woven with water.
After a period of research, Harry figured out what it was in his hand.
It was an invisibility cloak, a very precious magical item that made the wearer invisible.
But Harry always felt that there was something wrong with this invisibility cloak. But she couldn't tell.
It's just that Halle's spirituality keeps reminding herself to pay attention to this wonderful dress.
Along with the clothes, there was also a note with a thin, circled font on it.
"Your father left this thing to me before he died.
It should be returned to you now.
Use it well.
Sincerely wish you a Merry Christmas. "
"Father's relic?" Harry said softly, then put the Invisibility Cloak away and stuffed it into the deepest part of the box.
She decided to use this invisibility cloak sparingly. After all, it was a relic of her father and should be kept well, and Harley always felt that something bad would happen if she wore too much of this invisibility cloak.
Anyway, the path of the witch has reached the invisibility ability of the Sequence Seven witch, which coincides with the ability of this invisibility cloak.
What's more, Harley's own invisibility ability is more stable and can be activated at any time, which is even better in terms of convenience.
After sorting out all the gifts she had received, Harry picked up the bottle of potion and looked at it carefully.
Through simple divination, Harry determined that the bottle of potion was not harmful to him, so he pulled out the cork and drank it down.
The potion was very cold, but it was like a flame after drinking it, roasting Harry's stomach and making her feel warm.
After a while, Halle suddenly felt as if he could change the color of his hair.
She stood in front of the full-length mirror she bought, constantly changing the color of her hair, and finally settled on wine red.
Harry nodded in satisfaction and began to dress up.
After spraying on the perfume and changing into the Gryffindor school uniform, Harry walked cheerfully, preparing to go to the auditorium to enjoy the Christmas dinner.
...
The auditorium was already filled with all kinds of delicacies, especially when there were not many people staying in school, it seemed too rich.
Professor Snape was sitting at the teacher's table.
However, he did not have a meal, nor did he participate in the discussion between Professor Flitwick and Professor Dumbledore on the impact that the division of Suwei's magic department would have on the magical world.
Professor Snape's gaze was fixed on the side door of the auditorium, behind which was the nearest staircase to the Gryffindor bedroom.
Finally, he found the person he wanted to wait for. Harry pushed the door open, her long wine red hair swaying with the girl's cheerful steps.
That Gryffindor robe, the green almond eyes, the delicate face...
Tears welled up in the corners of Professor Snape's eyes...
Professor Dumbledore obviously noticed this scene, and subconsciously patted Professor Snape on the shoulder.
"Severus!" said Professor Dumbledore in a serious voice, "I hope you won't forget the promise you made to me before school started."
"No, I won't..." Professor Snape replied softly, but his voice was not confident at all.
Professor Dumbledore sighed, shook his head, and said nothing more.
After all, in a sense, he could also understand Professor Snape's suffering.
