The King of Flags at Hogwarts

Yes, Jady didn't go home for the Christmas break; she chose to stay at school.

The reason... those who know, know.

If Jady isn't going back, Professor Lee naturally won't either. Doesn't the huge Hogwarts have a place for a date? Even the Chamber of Secrets in Slytherin is more comfortable than being watched by your parents in the Indigo Manor.

This afternoon, Bobby took over Jady's time, which angered Professor Li, who then gave Bobby a cold shoulder for several days afterward.

Selby and Christine eventually arrived at McGonagall's house, guided by Snape.

The house is decorated very warmly, and the two-story villa is more than enough to accommodate a family of three.

"Mom and Dad!"

Bobby suddenly jumped out of the space, startling Selvi.

"Don't scare your parents like that, kid!" Servi complained, continuing to take clothes out of the suitcase and hang them in the closet.

Christine flicked her on the forehead, "Behave like a lady!"

"Hehehe..." Bobby chuckled, leaning closer to Selvi and asking, "What made you decide to come here for this holiday?"

Selvi retorted irritably, "If you weren't staying away from home, would we have come here? Your mother is so focused on her career, and I'd be lonely all alone on the ranch!"

"Mom hasn't been home for months?" Bobby looked at Christine in surprise, who was making the sheets.

"What does your dad know? My ice cream shop in London is doing incredibly well! The Chinese desserts are a huge hit, and KTV even got me some sweeteners that are only found in the magical world. My shop will be opening a branch soon!"

"By the way..." Bobby tilted his head, "what's the name of Mom's ice cream shop?"

"Forget-me-not Sweet House".

“Mom,” Bobby left Selby and went to Christine’s side. In her eyes, Christine’s magic was still tightly clenched into a ball. “You should drink the magic-enhancing potion. Then we can open a shop in Diagon Alley. That way you can come home anytime, and Dad won’t be lonely.”

Christine stiffened, then shook her head with a smile. "No, it's fine as it is now. The magical world is practically your domain. Doing business under your daughter's protection? Mom thinks that's shameful."

As it approached mealtime, the Hogwarts elves brought food to Her Majesty the Queen.

Snape only made a brief appearance at the Christmas dinner before rushing over to Bobby's place for a "family dinner."

"Bobby, this is my Christmas present for you."

Snape triumphantly handed a bottle to Bobby.

"Papa Snape, what is this...?"

"This is the all-purpose seasoning I just developed."

"A universal seasoning?" Bobby thought for a moment. "Is it based on the same principle as the taste of aphrodisiacs?"

The scent of the love potion is a matter of personal preference. For example, in the original book, Hermione was described as smelling fresh parchment, grass, and Ron Weasley's hair.

Snape nodded. Bobby was indeed a genius; he had grasped the general principle just from hearing the name.

"Great! This seasoning will create a flavor that people love, tailored to their individual tastes. I think you'll like it!"

"Oh, I love it! Thank you, Papa Snape!" Poppy exclaimed as she rushed into the kitchen. Her voice came through the door. "You guys eat first! I want to try this seasoning!"

The three adults exchanged glances and smiled knowingly.

None of them touched their chopsticks; they were just waiting for Bobby to come out.

Five minutes later, Bobby brought out a pot of soup, her expression somewhat subtle.

Upon opening the lid, Selby, Snape, and Christine immediately smelled an exquisite fragrance.

They couldn't wait to each scoop a spoonful of soup.

As the delicious soup entered their throats, all three of them simultaneously revealed expressions of ecstasy. This soup was simply too good! The flavor seemed to have hit the G-spot on the tip of their tongues!

Bobby's expression became even stranger; she had tasted the soup as soon as it was made.

How should I describe this flavor? Sour, sweet, bitter, salty, umami, numbing, spicy...

It's clear that Bobby likes all flavors, which is why the all-purpose seasoning tastes like everything.

However, too much of a good thing can be bad. Having all sorts of flavors isn't necessarily a good thing. Bobby watched the three of them fighting over the pot of Chinese fireball and tripe soup and had no intention of joining in at all.

That night, a mysterious figure infiltrated Hogwarts and was discovered by Filch. The mysterious figure injured Filch and then fled.

Chapter 91 Li Xiaoxiang's Vigilant Magic

Li Xiaoxiang was furious that someone had sneaked into Hogwarts right under his nose!

"Dumbledore, I'm going to set a trap in the school!"

"No, Tom, that won't do, it will accidentally hurt the students."

"Then I need to set up multiple alarm spells. At the very least, I can't let my students be threatened in any way!" Li Xiaoxiang roared furiously. "Also, my name is Li Xiaoxiang, not Tom Riddle!"

Dumbledore hadn't expected that Li Xiaoxiang's anger stemmed not from someone daring to harm him, the former Dark Lord, under his very nose, thus damaging his reputation.

It was simply because someone had broken into Hogwarts and threatened someone's safety. Because his mention of "my student" clearly referred specifically to one person.

“You’ll be very tired, Lee.” Dumbledore leaned back in his chair. “You know, the students are very mischievous, and someone will inevitably trigger your alarm magic accidentally or even deliberately.”

"Hmph, simple mind control. Anyone who does it on purpose will be locked up."

“Schools do not allow the use of mind control on students.”

“It’s alright. China has a Taoist technique that can create illusions. I have a way to make them tell the truth.”

Dumbledore's expression was complicated; he was fundamentally opposed to Li Xiaoxiang's actions.

For reasons unknown, he finally said, "Fine, you can try it for a while, but if I find any students are harmed as a result, I will personally stop you."

"Hmph!" Li Xiaoxiang stood up and walked outside.

He stopped at the door, and without turning around, he spoke in a calm tone, his voice revealing neither joy nor anger: "I still hate you as much as ever, Dumbledore."

However, I'm starting to understand your behavior a little better now.

He walked out of the principal's office, leaving behind the words: "Don't worry, I won't hurt the students."

Besides Li Xiaoxiang's actions, during Filch's recovery period, Mr. SB Green Hat volunteered to temporarily take over the work of the castle manager without asking for any wages.

He abandoned his own business of recovering the family fortune and resolutely took on the role of castle caretaker, purely out of love for Harry.

Two men, each driven by love, took action, but this had nothing to do with Bobby.

After the Christmas holidays, Bobby Evans officially joined the Irish Quidditch national team, training and playing with the team.

Apart from wizards from Britain and Ireland, people from other countries were completely baffled.

What's wrong with the Irish Quidditch national team? Everything was fine until suddenly they changed their starting Seeker, and it's a little girl who's not even fourteen years old?

But when the qualifiers started, everyone was taken aback; things were completely different from what they had expected.

By the end of April, Li Xiaoxiang had had enough of her professorial life.

The warning spells he set up were being touched every day, and as Dumbledore said, he became very tired.

In reality, only a minority of young wizards accidentally triggered warning spells; they genuinely did so by mistake. The Weasley twins, however, truly found pleasure in searching for warning spells! They could dismantle 40% of their own warning spells and traps in a single night!

But what troubled him even more was Sirius Black, the castle's caretaker.

This Gryffindor is absolutely outrageous! Don't forget, Black is also his assistant professor for Defense Against the Dark Arts! He also has the power to add or deduct points.

Confinement is commonplace for Geminis and serves no deterrent purpose. Whatever points Li Xiaoxiang loses from Geminis, SB will make up for it elsewhere.

Even more outrageous, this man, whom Dumbledore called a cuckold, actually helped the twins find magical traps!!

Li Xiaoxiang was really struggling to hold back. There were many times when he couldn't resist taking out his magic wand and eating the melon!

Filch has already recovered from his injury and been discharged from the hospital, but he said that this is a rare opportunity and he wants to make the most of this semester to study hard.

I'm so happy here, I don't miss home at all.

Anyway, Mr. SB seems to be having a lot of fun, so let's just let him work for the whole school year!

Mr. Li Xiaoxiang was very distressed because he started losing clumps of hair.

Li's older brother has decided that after finishing this semester, he should hurry back to the Ministry of Magic for a promotion and a raise. If he continues any longer, he's afraid he'll go back to his previous bald state.

It was Saturday. After breakfast, he returned to his office, thinking about where to take Jady to play this weekend.

Suddenly, a warning trap on the third floor of the castle was triggered.

He had already asked Dumbledore for permission to Apparate, since it was a fact that the Mysterios was eyeing Hogwarts, and granting him permission would allow him to arrive at the scene immediately.

Li Xiaoxiang's face was full of anger, wishing she could tear the student who caused the accident to pieces.

"Brother Xiaoxiang?"

"Yu'er?"

Li Xiaoxiang's expression changed from a downpour to overcast, from overcast to cloudy, from cloudy to sunny, and from sunny to bright!

"Did I run into my brother's warning magic? I didn't mean to..."

"Of course I know you didn't mean it. So, were you scared?"

Jady shook her head gently: "I wasn't scared. I'm at Hogwarts, and I have Brother Xiaoxiang with me. Even if something unexpected happens, I think I'll be fine."

"What's wrong? Why are you running so fast? The magic here won't be triggered unless someone moves quickly."

At this, Jady became excited, raising the newspaper in her hand. "I never expected Poppy to be so capable. She caught the Golden Snitch in all six group stage matches within five minutes! I'd heard she had exceptional Quidditch talent, but I never imagined she was this terrifying!"

Realizing she had gotten a little too excited, she quickly composed herself and said softly, "Upon receiving the newspaper, I couldn't wait to find Hermione and Harry, wanting to share the joy with them."

Li Xiaoxiang took the newspaper and saw that the headline on the front page read:

"The most outstanding and talented player in the two hundred years since Quidditch was invented—Bobby Evans!"

"Bobby Evans, the guarantee of victory!"

"This summer's Quidditch World Cup may see the most outrageous odds ever!"

"The French team was defeated by Ireland, losing their last hope of reaching the finals, and the players broke down in tears."

"The Ministry of Magic of England has issued a statement to the Ministry of Magic of Ireland regarding the ownership of Bobby Evans in the next World Cup..."

Li Xiaoxiang handed the newspaper back to Jady, "Miss Granger and the others don't need you to inform them; they should be celebrating right now. Since we've run into each other, why don't we go for a walk together?"

Jady put the newspaper away. The moment she met Li Xiaoxiang, she had actually given up the idea of ​​finding Hermione.
