It’s the last week before Christmas vacation, and students are becoming absent-minded in class.

But it’s not because the holiday is coming, but because I’m looking forward to getting a chance to play in the half-sized snowball field.

Yes, you have to fight to get the chance to play there.

At first, only the one hundred senior students who had attended the class could have a snowball fight there easily and happily.

But soon, other senior students who were originally observing also figured out the magic snowball technique. After several days of practice, they finally caught up with the big group.

Likewise, younger students discovered that they could go over and try for half an hour,

Although few people can achieve the standard of magic snowball, even “chatting” with the little ghost is very interesting!

Therefore, almost all the students in the castle use their free time as much as possible every day to queue up at the snowball fight.

Even if the weather gets colder and it gets dark, it can’t dampen the students’ enthusiasm.

Fortunately, for the sake of the students, Tver limited everyone’s play time to half an hour every day, so students did not crowd there all day long.

But Filch later caught several students. In order to play with the magic snowball as soon as possible, they ran out of the castle late at night and waited for twelve o’clock to rush in to have a snowball fight.

This was the one who was caught later. There are probably more who were not caught at the beginning!

Tver had to set it up for the little devils and not open it to students at night to curb this trend.

Otherwise, Filch, an old squib, would squat outside in the ice and snow all night and become the school’s second ghost employee sooner or later…

The closer to the holiday, the more students hate themselves. Why did they not register on the detention notice last week?

Especially Malfoy, he wanted to mock Harry and others for not being able to go home for Christmas, but suddenly found that he was the one who suffered the loss!

He thought about going to Snape to re-register, but after seeing the murderous look on his dean’s face recently, he decided to give up after thinking about it for half a second.

Although the game is fun, life is more important…

As for Harry and Ron, who were preparing to stay in school, they were much more relaxed.

On the first day of the vacation, they got up early and happily played wizard chess in the lounge while chatting about their vacation plans.

“George and the others said they can go over there and play snowballs today. If we follow them, maybe we can learn a little bit!” Ron said hopefully.

Harry couldn’t help but show the same smile, “I don’t know if we can learn it. It seems to be very difficult.”

“Don’t worry, both idiots George and Fred can learn it. There’s nothing we can’t do~” Ron said confidently.

“You’re still playing!” Hermione didn’t know when she appeared beside them, looking at the two of them angrily, “Can’t you do something serious?”

“Business?” Ron blinked confusedly.

“Nicholas Flamel!” Hermione shouted.

Harry scratched his head in embarrassment. He had really forgotten about it and was thinking about playing with snowballs all day long.

Ron said “Oh~” after realizing it, and said shamelessly:

“I’ve been busy writing papers recently. I almost forgot if you didn’t tell me. But haven’t you been reading a book recently? Did you find any clues?”

“No.” Hermione sat down frustrated.

But after a while, she became excited again, quickly looked around, and whispered: “There is another place in the library that we haven’t been to yet.”

Ron looked at her in shock, as if she had been a different person.

“You mean, the forbidden book area in the library?”

“Yes,” Hermione raised her head confidently, “that’s a place we can’t search.”

“Then I might as well go find Professor Welfare’s office to see what he has to say about Snape!” Ron said with a grimace.

Harry nodded in agreement, but Hermione was unhappy.

“The professor often stays alone in the office during this period. If you dare to go there, you will be caught immediately!”

“Then you don’t have to worry. The professor said that he will not stay in school during the Christmas vacation, but will go to meet an elder.”

Ron shook his head proudly and added something special.

“This was what he said casually last night when he and I were playing wizard chess.”

Even if he had doubts about the professor, he would not give up the opportunity to chat with the professor every day.

Harry also wanted to play chess and chat with the professor about the magical magic that only existed in Hermione’s books, but with his wizard chess skills, even Seamus couldn’t play it, so he could only feel envious in his heart.

Hermione was so envious that she felt sour. For the first time, she felt that her inability to play wizard chess was an unforgivable mistake.

“You can’t beat the professor anymore, and…and…anyway, hurry up and find information about Nico Flamel!”

After saying that, to prevent Ron from saying anything that would make her more uncomfortable, she simply dragged her luggage and left.

Today is the first day of vacation. Students like her who don’t stay in school can only reluctantly say goodbye to the snowball fight – when they come back, this place will be gone.

Pouting at Hermione who was leaving, Ron said without hesitation: “I persisted for a month before being surpassed by the professor, and I am already much better than Percy and the others!”

“Let’s talk about what happened last night. You went to bed as soon as you came back and you haven’t even talked about private lessons yet.” Harry looked at Ron expectantly.

Harry’s daily expectation was for Ron to tell him about the professor, euphemistically known as: to increase his understanding of the professor so that he could find out the inside story.

Hermione did not give up this excuse, but she also moved the small bench every time to listen to Ron’s bragging.

Ron immediately raised his little head proudly, “The wizard chess match with the professor last night was so exciting that all the wisdom in my mind was consumed.”

“Although I lost in the end, it was the most exciting game of chess in my life!”

“More importantly, the professor gave George and Fred special badges at the end of the class, saying he was grateful for their special contributions!”

“Badge?” Harry took out the badge he got on Halloween in confusion, “Is there anything special about this?”

Ron looked at the badge with envy. He also had one, but it could only be used twice, unlike Harry who could recharge it.

“Their badges are bigger and consume a little more magic power, but they can be worn anywhere on the body! Display them on the chest!”

Harry didn’t feel any difference. Unlike Ron, he could accept wearing it on his waist or on his chest.

But when the twins walked over with their heads held high, he could see something special.

“Why do your badges have two different colors, red and blue?”

Hearing this, George pointed to the red badge on his chest happily, “The professor said that when we stay together, the two badges can work alternately to avoid consuming too much magic power!”

“When encountering powerful magic, they can also work together to form a powerful armor spell!” Fred added excitedly.

Ron frowned in displeasure.

“I can defeat both of you with just one badge!”

“Come on,” George waved his hand disdainfully, “We’re going to have a snowball fight, a really awesome one. Do you want to go?”

Harry and Ron pushed the Wizard’s chess over in unison.

“Of course!”
