Vol 2 Chapter 1433: Slughorn's invitation

After breakfast, everyone lined up to leave the castle.
Filch stood at the gate of the oak as usual, checking the names of the students who were allowed to go to Hogmund village.
This time is longer than ever, because in addition to checking the list, he has to use the probe to repeatedly measure and measure on everyone.
Filch's skeptical expression, like the dangerous black magic items on the students passing by him.
The Detector is a simple version that the Ministry of Magic is using, and Avon is not sure how much this gadget has.
Hermione said that on the evening of the school day, Filch used it to check out the black magic items brought by Crab.
It sounds good, but it certainly hasn't detected what Evan has wrapped around.
"I don't understand, even if we steal the black magic items, what is the relationship?" When it was Ron's turn, he stared nervously at the slender and long detector, and asked, "You probably should check." What do we bring in?"
He made a lot of remarks, and the result was a few more poked by Filch with a probe.
When they went outside in the squally winds and rain and snow, he still hurts his teeth, and the original detector can still use this.
Speaking of it, today's weather is really bad enough. This winter seems to be exceptionally early.
Ai Wen couldn't help but wonder if Voldemort and the evil spirits have the ability to influence the climate, or how to explain this bad weather?
Walking along the way to Hogmund village is very uncomfortable, the wind is very cold and cold, and the rain makes the temperature very low.
Although everyone walked together, no one spoke.
On the way to Hogsmeade, there are students everywhere who are struggling to make the wind go.
Everyone wraps his head around the circle with a scarf, and even then, the exposed part is frozen.
This weather should be curled up in a warm bed or in a warm, shared public room instead of coming out. When they finally enter Hogsmeade, the feeling becomes even stronger, similar to Diagonal Lane, Hogmo. Almost half of the shops in the village are closed, which is extraordinarily depressed.
The first store in the village, the gate of the Zoko joke shop with the largest flow of people, was sealed by wooden boards.
Ai Wen heard Harry sigh, although Fred and George's joke products are very popular, but as a veteran supplier of mischief, Zoco joke shop still has a lot of unique goods, its closing makes people feel regret.
Thankfully, the Bee Duke Candy Store is still open, so that their trip is not so boring.
The group did not rush to separate, they decided to go to the Bee Duke candy store to go shopping.
After entering the village of Hogsmeade, most of the students staggered toward the crowded shop.
After a few seconds, everyone felt happy when the warmth of the taffy scent pervaded.
"Thank God, this is really great, I really want to..."
"Ah, kids, I didn't expect to meet you here!" said a Hong Zhong-like voice behind them.
Ai Wen’s heart was the voice of Professor Slughorn.
A few of them turned back and saw Professor Slughorn. He wore a huge plush hat, a coat with a matching plush collar, and a large bag of jackfruit in his hand, occupying at least a quarter of the space in the store.
"Ivan, Harry, Hermione, Elaine, it’s so clever, I see you four here." Slughorn said kindly, I don’t know if it was intentional, he missed Luo again. Well, "Speaking, your four little guys have missed my three small dinners in a row! This is no good, no, kids, I am ironic to invite you, you can and those who have attended the party." People inquire, everyone likes the atmosphere there."
Ivan never doubted this, the key they did not talk to the guy who could like the Slughorn party.
Most of the things that those people pursue and like are those that Ai Wen denied and abandoned.
God knows how much effort they have spent in the past month to push down Slughorn’s invitation.
Harry’s strategy was that every time Slughorn sent him a small invitation with a purple ribbon, he deliberately arranged the team’s training, regardless of the time and weather, or training. The strategy guarantees that Ron will not be left alone.
Ginny and Elaine can also use this excuse not to go, but Elaine mostly refused directly.
The excuse used by Alvin and Hermione is to conduct magical research, or simply avoid Professor Slughorn.
"I know that all four of you are very busy, hard training and learning, is the best student in the school, but occasionally it is harmless to have some entertainment, work and rest. Right, Elaine, I specially prepared the first class. The dragon blood, the heart of the Heilongjiang Black Dragon, this is a high-end goods, not only has a strong magic, the taste is very delicious, you will definitely like it, I promise." Slughorn said, "Then How about Monday night, I think this weather..."
"No on Monday, Professor."
"I and Harry had an appointment with Professor Dumbledore that night and went to him."
"It’s unfortunate!" Slughorn screamed exaggeratedly, drawing the attention of most people in the store. "Oh, okay, go to Abs, but you can't hide forever." What about the ladies? Hermione, Elaine, are you two free on Monday night?"
"Free time, free!" Elaine could not wait to say, sucking his nose hard.
This mischief may have been tempted by the Hei of the Heshishian Black Dragon Blood. She used to be troubled.
"Oh, okay, we went to the party on Monday, professor..." Hermione looked at Elaine, but said helplessly.
"That's it!" Slughorn said with satisfaction, it seems that it is a good start to be able to participate in the party with Hermione and Elaine.
He waved his hand and walked out of the candy store.
Until the end, he did not notice Ron, as if he was just a pile of shelves in the store.
"This is really good!" Ron became as unhappy as the first invitation to the second week of school.
He seems to want to go to Slughorn's party and think this is a good opportunity.
Except that Elaine was still fascinated by the taste of the high-end dragon blood, everyone had no thoughts to continue to go on. After simply buying some candy, the five of them quickly separated, and Ron went to the place where he had a good date with Lavender. Harry and the Krivy brothers who came across the store later went to three broom bars.
Ai Wen, Hermione, and Elaine are going to buy pygmy Pu, and then go to the pig's head bar to find Montparnasse for contraband transactions...
