Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

Chapter 36 Christmas Surprise

After hearing this, Lewis almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.

What kind of logic is this? Do you little Hogwarts wizards all have such wonderful brain circuits?

He finally realized what Snape felt like last year. Louis grinned and didn't respond.

However, this is not the end. Rumors had already spread in the school. Because Harry did not show off his snake-talking skills in the duel club, no one suspected that Harry was the heir. Instead, the blame fell on Louis.

Some people even say that the Daphne incident was actually a play directed and performed by Louis. The only true descendant of Slytherin is Louis.

However, there is indeed one doubt in the rumors, and that is Louis' bloodline. But Justin Fenris of Hufflepuff said that Louis' bloodline was fake.

"Think about it, if he is really of Muggle blood, the Sorting Hat will consider him going to Slytherin."

"Don't mind them Louis," Hermione said as she and Ginny sat in the common room a few days before Christmas.

Louis spread his hands, he never cared about these things, they were just childish little fights.

"How are you spending Christmas? Do you plan to stay in school?" Ron came in.

Since the secret room incident occurred in the school, many students have been on tenterhooks, and people have been discussing who will be the next victim. Under this situation, everyone felt that Hogwarts was no longer safe and went to the station to buy tickets.

"I don't plan to go back." Hermione said, although she understood that as a Muggle blood person, staying in school at this time is a very dangerous choice.

"Me? Of course." Louis turned the quill in his hand, "If even the heir of Slytherin went back, wouldn't this Christmas be too boring?"

"Louis..." Ginny frowned, she didn't seem to like Louis talking about her that way.

"Harry also plans to stay in school, so that means there are only a few of us in the entire Hogwarts, Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle." Ron said excitedly.

"There are also Luna and the Greengrass sisters." Ginny added, because Astoria wanted to accompany her sister Daphne, and due to the influence of the Imperius Curse, Daphne did not come out of the school hospital.

"It is indeed a wonderful holiday. Have you figured out how to get into Slytherin?" Harry came out of the dormitory and joined their conversation.

Since Colin was attacked, they had been discussing the information about the secret room, and finally decided to go to Malfoy to inquire about it. After all, it was Slytherin's territory, and Louis might be able to find out who opened the door to the secret room.

"I think this is impossible." Ron shook his head, "First of all, we will ensure that no one recognizes us, and secondly, we will have to follow Malfoy's instructions."

"No, it's possible." Louis dragged his head with his hands, "Hermione, do you remember the potion we prepared."

"You mean..."

"That's right, Polyjuice Potion." Louis snapped his fingers.

"What kind of potion?" Harry, Ron and Ginny looked at each other.

"Polyjuice Potion, a potion that can turn a person into another person." Hermione rummaged in her handbag and took out a small bottle of gray liquid.

"However, we only have this little portion, which is not enough for the five of us." Hermione suddenly thought of this problem.

"Can't you make some more?" Ron asked.

"It takes twenty days to brew Polyjuice Potion. Even Louis can only control the time to about ten days." Hermione frowned and said, "And we don't have so much money. Louis spent almost all of his time refining the new medicine. All his savings were gone."

"Can you ensure that you won't be discovered after your transformation?" Harry looked at the gray potion with some trepidation.

"No problem at all," Hermione was sure to answer, "but there's a catch."

"Polyjuice Potion only has one hour to transform, so we have to make sure we get out of the Slytherin common room within an hour." Louis looked at his companions.

They took a deep breath, but the amount of this small bottle may only be enough for four people to achieve the transformation effect.

"I'm quitting. I don't want to drink something so disgusting, and I have to spend Christmas with Luna. After all, she's the only one in Ravenclaw." Ginny raised her hand and was the first to express her stance.

"I'm quitting too. Fred and George made an appointment with me to visit the kitchen at Hogwarts." Ron looked at his sister, his attitude also seemed a little decisive.

"Ron." Ginny was slightly surprised, but she didn't expect Ron to make such a choice.

"Well, you didn't choose to go to the Duel Club last time. How can I let you quit this time when you have such a good opportunity to get along with Louis." Ron said seemingly unconcerned.

Ginny blushed immediately, but Louis on the side looked confused. You brothers and sisters have short-lived parents, it’s none of my business.

"Stop arguing, the five of us are going to go together." Louis waved his hand and decided to drop the hammer, "At most, it will take less time to transform."

The team is a whole and no one can be left behind.

The next day, the first semester finally came to an end, and almost no one spent Christmas at Hogwarts. The school seemed extremely quiet, and even the sound of snowflakes falling on the ground could be clearly heard.

This made DeLouis and the others extremely excited. They could play wildly in the school, fight, and practice spells. Later, Luna in Ravenclaw Tower also joined their circle.

"You seem to have something on your mind?" During the break, Luna asked, sitting next to Lewis, with an expression that seemed to indicate that your mind was full of harassment.

"Right." Lewis hesitated for a while, and then said, "Actually, ever since my friend Colin was attacked, I have been worried about what would happen to them if they were harmed, and I did not have enough strength to protect them."

Luna was stunned for a moment, and then stared at Louis with her blue eyes:

"Power is not absolute. Do you know what the most powerful power, or the most powerful magic, is in the world?"

"It's the courage to face difficulties and the affection for friends and family. I think this is also the reason why you were sorted into Gryffindor."

Lewis was suddenly enlightened. In fact, he had been worried about this for the past few days, fearing that his friends would be involved in these disputes. Every time, he thought about facing the Basilisk alone and dealing with Tom Riddle alone. .

This is one of the reasons why he has been reluctant to reveal the complete truth.

"Thank you, Luna." Louis responded sincerely.

"Everyone chooses a different path, and every choice has nothing to do with right or wrong. As long as you have a clear conscience and don't regret the path you choose, no matter what you do, you can shine with your own light." Luna waved. With my own little hands, in the cold and windy winter, this girl with silver-white hair looks particularly beautiful paired with the snowy scene.

When the "crazy girl" is no longer crazy, she becomes a goddess full of wisdom.

"You said you want to protect your friends, then am I your friend?" Luna looked at Lewis with expectant eyes.

"Of course." Louis smiled, "You have always been my friend since the express train started."

However, Hogwarts is definitely not the domain of just a few of them. Since Ron and Ginny did not plan to go back, brothers Fred and George also planned to stay at Hogwarts instead of accompanying their parents to Egypt. This made Percy, a prefect, unhappy because they didn't spend a lot of time in the common room.

However, the worst thing about Percy was his criticism of Gryffindor students. Whenever someone came back late, he would nag him non-stop.

In this regard, Fred and George said that it was because their girlfriend Penello went home and they were empty, lonely and cold. Once, Percy even found out about it and almost used a transformation spell to beat them up.

At dinner on Christmas Eve, Louis saw Astoria. She looked extremely unhappy and always came and left in a hurry.

Early the next morning, Louis was awakened by the shouts of Harry and Ron.

"Merry Christmas, Louis." Ron and Harry handed him the gifts.

"Merry Christmas, um, are these all for me?" Louis said, looking at the pile of packages on the ground.

He was slightly surprised when he looked at the dozens of packages, large and small. This was definitely the most gifts he had ever received at Christmas.

Ron gave Louis a book called "How to Become a Potion Master". Louis believed that after reading it, he would never want to be a Potion Master again.

Hermione's gift is very unique. It is a small wooden owl that can learn to speak. It is simply a repeater in the wizarding world.

Harry's gift was a sugar quill purchased from Hogsmeade. It is said that this snack is very popular in the wizarding world.

What surprised Louis the most was that Mrs. Weasley gave him a Weasley special sweater with a big "L" in the middle.

"Thank you, Louis." Harry waved his hand and received a Golden Snitch figure from Louis. He liked it very much.

"This is?" Louis looked at the most conspicuous gift and couldn't help but feel a little strange.

"This should be a gift from Ginny." Ron said while eating the spicy Muggle snacks given by Louis.

"Ginny?" Louis opened the package expectantly.

Underneath the package is a large stone, and on this stone, various memories of the encounter between Ginny and Louis are carved in simple strokes.

It was completely carved by her own hands with a wand. No wonder Ginny would find excuses to go out instead of going to the Duel Club with them before.

On the other hand, he was nothing compared to the gift from Ginny.

"This girl is really thoughtful." Louis smiled slightly. This was perhaps the biggest surprise he received on Christmas.

"Shrink quickly."

After collecting the stone, Lewis looked at an envelope-like package placed on the table.
