Chapter 174: Gift for Astoria

Early the next morning, Jon got dressed, dressed up neatly, and appeared in the Hufflepuff common room.
Since I was going to Hogsmeade today, it was already full of people early in the morning.
But even the third-year students have been to Hogsmeade's old fritters once, so the atmosphere of the discussion was not as enthusiastic as last time; only those first and second-year students looked at them pitifully.
Just as Jon walked into the common room, he saw Zacharias Smith, Ernie McMillan, and Justin Finley discussing something first, and then walked over with a serious expression.
Ernie seemed to be holding a magazine in his hand.
"Jon, did that Hermione Granger in Gryffindor approach you on purpose?" Zacharias asked with a serious face.
"Huh?" Jon was taken aback for a moment.
"Let's take a look at this, Jon!" Ernie quickly spread out the "Witcher Weekly" in his hand, and pointed to the content of the above article:
"Miss Granger is a mediocre but ambitious girl. She seems to have a soft spot for famous wizards. Harry Potter cannot satisfy her appetite alone.
Ever since the Bulgarian team’s seeker and the hero of the last World Cup, Victor Krum, came to Hogwarts, Miss Granger has been skillfully playing with the feelings of the two boys...
"Pancey Parkinson, a beautiful and lively fourth-grade girl, she claimed that Miss Granger probably made a kind of ecstasy before successfully seduce two warriors..."
"I've never quite Hermione turned into such a girl...Such fickle..." Justin said in disbelief, "She was pretty simple a few years ago!"
"You have to be careful..." Zacharias meditated: "In case she stretches her claws towards you... and gives you a ecstasy..."
"And Cedric!" Ernie suddenly reacted: "We have to remind him too!"
Jon reluctantly turned to the previous page. There is no doubt that the author of this "masterpiece" is Rita Skeeter.
It seems that she has taken the lead in her battle with Hermione.
But when the secret of her being an illegal Animagus was discovered by Hermione... Jon felt silent in his heart for the fast-flying British journalist.
"You don't need to pay attention to such gossip rumors..." He shook his head carelessly: "I have to have breakfast first, and then I'm going to Hogsmeade..."
...
When Jon left the castle, the silver-white, faint sun shone on the field, and today’s weather was almost the warmest time in a year.
At the exit of the castle, Jon successfully met with Astoria.
Astoria blushed and ran out of a group of Slytherin girls, and Jon also had to cheek, sitting and watching his Hufflepuff friends leave first.
When the two of them were left, the two slowly walked towards Hogsmeade.
At the entrance of the village, Jon saw the back of the trio of Harry Potter, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. Harry was followed by a very large and thin black dog. Their direction seemed to be outside the village.
Jon ignored them. He followed Astoria into a small teahouse on the side of the road.
The place is small and misty, as if everything is decorated with frills or bows.
They found a seat next to the window and sat down.
"What do you want?" Mrs. Pattif asked, she was chubby, with shiny black hair in a bun, and squeezed from between the two tables with difficulty.
"Two cups of Ceylon black tea..." Astoria said softly, then she glanced at Jon again and added: "You don't like coffee, don't you?"
"I'm free!" Jon shrugged.
The customers in the teahouse are a man and a woman. It seems that Jon and Astoria are the youngest couple.
The atmosphere in the air was a little ambiguous, and Astoria looked a little nervous.
The black tea came up, and the two chatted there without beginning and end.
First, I talked about the current situation of those tree guards in the Forbidden Forest... Then I talked about plans for the Easter holiday soon... Astoria even talked about a piece of news she saw this morning: Responsible for arrest Officials of Azkaban fugitive Black claimed that Black appeared in Algeria this morning.
Just chat without embarrassment or awkwardness.
Suddenly, a man and a woman next door started to stand up, and the two kissed...
The atmosphere became more ambiguous, and Jon only felt that his face was hot.
"Should we change places?" Astoria whispered, her face flushed with shame.
"Okay!" Jon nodded.
The two hurriedly left the teahouse.
"Sorry, Jon..." Astoria lowered her head: "I can't stand the atmosphere inside..."
"It's okay, I'm actually a bit too." Jon smiled and nodded: "It's also pretty good outside."
Astoria seemed to pluck up courage: "Summer vacation... After the Triwizard Tournament is over, will you go to my house to play?"
"Huh?" Jon was a little dumbfounded.
"I have already talked to my mother about the New Year. She said she admires you very much... The same is true for my sister. My sister doesn't hate you anymore..." Astoria's voice begged: "So... they don't Will care... Care about your... descent..."
She seemed to have spent a lot of effort before she said the last word.
Looking at Jon who was a little stunned, she asked weakly: "Aren't you willing..."
"Of course!" Jon grinned reluctantly, "I will... If the third project I am still alive?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Astoria pursed her lips. "How could you die?"
"The sacrifice of the Warriors is also the tradition of the Triwizard Tournament!" Jon said jokingly: "What if the third event happens?
"No nonsense!" Astoria covered his mouth: "That's it, you agree!"
There was happiness in her voice.
Jon suddenly took her into his arms: "Should I take you to buy a gift?"
"Okay..." The girl blinked.
...
A few minutes later, they came to the Joko joke shop.
It took Jon more than ten minutes~EbookFREE.me~ to select a pair of mirrors.
"This is a good thing!" Joko introduced enthusiastically: "As long as you call the other person's name in front of a mirror, you can see her in front of another mirror!"
"What's the price?" Jon asked.
"100 gallons!" Joko added: "It's already the lowest price."
"It's too expensive... Jon..." Astoria pulled his sleeve and shook his head.
"No, a reasonable price!" Jon waved to her, then took out a small bag of gold coins from his pocket.
At the same time, through the window... he saw Harry, Ron and Hermione returning to Hogsmeade.
The dog scurried around Harry happily.
