A day at Hogwarts.

Chapter 485: Take Action That Day
When Charles returned to the Gryffindor common room, he saw Ron slumped over the table.

He asked curiously, "What happened to Weasley?"

Harry spread his hands and said helplessly, "He went to invite Fleur after class but was rejected. He went to invite Erica before dinner, but Erica said he was a good man and could invite better girls."

Charles said, "Are there other girls?"

Ron said weakly, "Maybe I should ask Myrtle..."

This child is hopeless.

Charles asked him, "Did you invite your classmates?"

Ron murmured: "They won't accept my invitation. I'm so useless..."

Dean said to him, "Why don't you invite the third grade girls?"

Ron said hesitantly, "That's not good."

Neville also said, "There's nothing wrong with that. Didn't Harry invite Ginny?"

It would be fine if I didn't mention it, but as soon as I mentioned Ron I got angry.

At this time, Lavender and Parvati came back from outside, talking and laughing, looking very happy.

Charles said to Ron, "I'll ask them, if they haven't invited anyone, invite them right away."

Without waiting for Ron to reply, he asked the two girls who came over: "Lavender, Parvati, have you found a dance partner?"

Lavender smiled and asked, "Are you inviting me?"

Parvati said regretfully, "Oh, that's too bad. Padma just introduced her to a Ravenclaw boy and she has agreed."

No one expected that it was her sister who introduced Lavender to a dance partner.

Ron sighed, thinking about Parvati.

Charles asked Parvati, "What about you?"

Parvati pointed at Dean and said, "He invited me that day."

Dean nodded and said, "It's better to invite a dance partner as soon as possible."

Ron looked ashen.

Charles had no idea what to do, so he turned to Neville and asked, "Longbottom, have you found a dance partner?"

Neville nodded and said, "I accidentally bumped into a Hufflepuff girl at the corner of the corridor this morning. She said she would only forgive me if I became her dance partner."

Everyone was shocked that there was such a good thing.

Harry said to Ron, "How about you invite girls from other houses?"

Ron was silent for a long time, then said, "Tomorrow we will only have Potions class with other colleges. Do we have to invite Slytherin students?"

Harry said, "Why don't you wait in front of the greenhouse?"

Ron shook his head, finding this humiliating.

As they were chatting, Seamus came back and had a strange look in his eyes when he saw Charles.

Charles asked him, "What's wrong?"

Seamus shook his head and said, "Nothing, I just heard some bad rumors."

"Mine?" Charles was a little surprised. "What is it?"

He didn't care about the rumors. He only cared about who was going to do something bad to him and whether this matter was related to his grandfather's kidnapping.

Seamus hesitated, then said, "There's a rumor among Slytherin students that you stole Malfoy's dance partner."

The news was so explosive that Ron suddenly became excited.

"Who is it?" Ron asked Charles. "Could it be Pansy Parkinson?"

Harry immediately denied it: "How could it be her?"

Neville was frightened and asked Charles in disbelief: "Why did you think of looking for a Slytherin girl?"

Lavender muttered, "Could he be under the Imperius Curse?" Parvati denied, "The truth is that he can even resist Professor Moody's Imperius Curse."

Hermione, who had been reading, put down the book, which was as thick as a brick, and went over to touch Charles' forehead.

Dean said, "I remember Professor Moody said that a heavy blow to the head might be able to break the Imperius Curse. How about giving it a try?"

Harry said excitedly, "Yeah, I think I can give it a try."

He had wanted to do this for a long time, and now that he had the chance he couldn't miss it, he even got into a boxing stance.

Charles could only push Hermione's hand away. Seeing her clench her fist, he immediately said, "I'm fine. I'm not under the Imperius Curse. I don't need physical therapy."

Hermione was also a little disappointed.

Charles could only smile bitterly. It was not easy to tell others that his grandfather had been kidnapped.

At the same time, he was wondering, what is grandpa doing now?

……

"You can't cook as you please. You can't just add as much salt as you want or as much black pepper as you want. You have to treat it as making a potion!"

Jack felt a little tired. How could there be such a stupid person in the world? He ruined the good cod soup.

Miao Erfu glared at Jack and said, "How do you, a Muggle, know what potions are? Don't think you know everything just because you read a few pages of the textbook!"

Jack took a deep breath and said angrily, "A cat from Privet Drive could do a better job than you."

Miao Erfu had his tail stepped on and yelled, "I'm not a cat!"

Voldemort lifted his foot from his tail and said, "Lucius, listen to him in the kitchen."

Rodolphus nodded in agreement from behind. After Jack came, he would not have to eat the things made by Lucius. Those things were very unpalatable even in potions.

But Miao Erfu seemed very unhappy with Jack, and even cooking was troublesome for him.

Everyone stood on Jack's side, and Miao Erfu immediately lost his temper and could only do as he was told.

But fortunately, these bad days will soon be over.

It was almost midnight snack time before everyone could have dinner. Voldemort asked, "The day after tomorrow is Christmas Eve. How are your preparations for going to Hogwarts?"

Rodolphus immediately replied, "Master, everyone is ready to welcome you back to Hogwarts."

Voldemort nodded and continued eating his dinner.

At the same time, cheers came from Farbatten Castle.

"The address has been confirmed!" Kitov said excitedly. "Where is it?"

It took a lot of time for everyone to finally use the loophole to activate Jack's communication notebook in the background, and then sent a large amount of information to finally determine the location.

Kitov was not familiar with British geography, so he needed a local to take a look.

"It's near Loch Ness," said Blake.

"When are we going to do it?"

He just came back from Durmstrang yesterday, and he didn't expect Jack to be kidnapped.

It is not Black's style to report to the Aurors, it is better to rescue the people himself.

Mos Jeff said: "Tomorrow is Christmas Eve, they probably didn't expect us to do it then."

Kitov said, "No problem, Christmas is next month for me anyway."

Louis Manz said, "I think we should get some help."

Dobby then said, "Mr. Smith and the Dementors are very good friends, they will definitely be happy to help!"

Everyone was discussing what to do tomorrow, and Chris felt relieved.

He had always thought that it was the Death Eaters who kidnapped Jack, but now it seemed that Jack was in a different place from where he was hiding at Malfoy Manor, so it was another gang.
