Chapter 36: The First Spring Festival at Hogwarts

After the competition, the students of Hogwarts were faced with a long period of study without any surprises.

There are only boring classes every day, no Quidditch matches, and no festivals, at least that's the case for most students.

"Ah~"

Adam sighed for the third time that day.

"Adam, what's wrong with you?"

Cologne came over with a worried look on his face, and the other roommates also paid attention to the situation here.

"fine……"

Adam blurted out, and the next moment he received four pairs of disbelieving and disapproving looks.

"What do you mean it's okay? You've never acted so depressed!"

Cologne put his hands on Adam's shoulders from behind and shook him:

"You are the Adam who can decisively fight against cockroaches in the bathroom! Cheer up! No matter what happens, you can tell us!"

"Although I know you care about me, the prefix is ​​actually unnecessary..."

Recalling his experience that day, Adam's face was filled with black lines.

Who would have thought that even Eugene, a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, was afraid of cockroaches, especially such small ones... But then again, this thing is quite rare in the UK, and I didn't expect to find one in Hogwarts.

Coming back to his senses from the memory of the chaotic roommates screaming, Adam sighed again:

"Well, actually it's almost Chinese New Year, but I can't go back."

There doesn't seem to be any such thing as asking for leave at Hogwarts, and it's not convenient to travel back and forth.

"New Year's Eve?"

A question mark popped up above Cologne's head.

"Hasn't January 1 already passed? It's almost February now."

"I'm talking about the Chinese festival - the Spring Festival, the Chinese New Year."

Adam sighed sadly:

"The whole family cooks together, eats together, puts up Spring Festival couplets, hangs lanterns..."

"Hmm...it doesn't sound all that different from Christmas."

Adam immediately turned his head and retorted:

“It’s a big difference!”

"Uh, okay, okay, that's a big difference."

Colon turned Adam's head back.

“Is this holiday special to you?”

“It’s probably the most important festival of the year.”

"That's it..."

Cologne turned to look at his roommates behind him:

"How about... we celebrate the Spring Festival by ourselves at Hogwarts?"

"Ok?"

Adam blinked, as if... there was something going on?

Since it was a Chinese festival, Adam had no plans to invite anyone else along and they could just celebrate it in the dormitory. According to Cologne and the others, they could be considered a family.

Yellow and black have always been the main colors of the Hufflepuff dormitory, but on this day they were replaced by red. Red round lanterns were hung on the ceiling like a string of persimmons. The folded red paper was cut into the word "Fu", which became a long string when pulled apart, spanning from one end of the dormitory to the other.

Adam also grabbed Xiaoke and Sibi and dressed them in little lion dance-shaped costumes.

"Okay, let's go play~"

After helping the two little ones get their wings out of the holes in their clothes, Adam patted their butts and asked them to get off his legs.

"Adam, do we have to stick this upside down as well?"

Adam glanced at the longevity character in Uther's hand and said quickly:

"No, no! Only the blessing should be pasted upside down!"

When it came to putting up Spring Festival couplets, Adam was puzzled by the red paper in front of him. Should he put up some Spring Festival couplets that were in line with the characteristics of Hogwarts?

But what to write...

First line: Albus Dumbledore

Second line: Gellert Grindelwald

Horizontal banner: A happy marriage?

Uh... I don’t know if the old principal can understand Chinese. It’s better not to do such a thing.

After thinking for a while, Adam wrote:

The dragon hatches, the bird and the snake break the silver and bid farewell to the old year

Phoenix Nirvana Sniffing Gold Welcomes the New Year

Good fortune and luck

I can’t think of anything better at the moment, so I’ll just stick with it for now.

"Eugene, please help me put this outside the door. I marked it."

"it is good."

There were classes on New Year's Eve, and most of the preparations were made in advance. In addition, many aspects of the event had to be simplified at Hogwarts, so it was soon time for the much-anticipated New Year's Eve dinner.

"Wow~"

Cologne, who was already proficient in using chopsticks, picked up a pair of chopsticks and swallowed his saliva.

"Isn't this a bit too much food? Can we finish it?"

Adam cooked a table full of dishes, including everything that flew in the sky, ran on the ground, and swam in the water. There were four kinds of staple dishes alone. Even a greedy person like him felt it was a little difficult to finish the whole table.

"This table will be eaten until tomorrow, so make as much as you can."

In fact, Adam also found that he seemed to have done too much, but it was not a big problem.

"Oh, by the way, Eugene, one of these two fish should be saved for tomorrow. Don't eat it all in one day."

"it is good."

Eugene's eyes lit up as he looked at the two squirrel fish.

He is still not very good at picking out fish bones, and this kind of fish, of which only the head and tail cannot be eaten, is simply tailor-made for him.

As it turned out, Cologne still had some misunderstandings about the fighting power of boys of their age. The New Year's Eve dinner for five people lasted from dinner to New Year's Eve, and there was not much left except for the squirrel mandarin fish that was specially left.

"What? You guys actually celebrated the festival secretly without inviting us to join you?!"

The next day, all the Hufflepuffs discovered the red paper pasted on the door of Adam's dormitory. After asking curiously, they were shocked.

"That's the Chinese New Year, and you don't celebrate it."

"It's okay, we can eat...oh no, we can live!"

Ernie held his chest with his hands, looking terrified.

After Adam’s popularization, how many people in Hogwarts still don’t know that Chinese festivals are equal to delicious food?

"Are there any left?"

Cedric was very concise and got straight to the point.

"No, I ate the last squirrel mandarin fish for breakfast today."

Cologne spread his hands.

"All right……"

"Are you so interested in Chinese festivals?"

Adam rubbed his chin.

"Yeah yeah!"

A group of people nodded.

"There are indeed a few Chinese festivals after that..."

There are more festivals in the first half of the year, but...

Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, Adam opened his mouth and uttered extremely cold words:

"But do you still remember the end-of-year exams that are not far away from us?"

Yes, as students they obviously have one hurdle that they cannot escape, and that is examinations.

Although Hogwarts only holds examinations once a school year, many young wizards will only discover at this time that they do not seem to have learned much in the year.

Many little wizards also found that they forgot everything they learned this year. When they reviewed, they realized that the knowledge they once knew was so unfamiliar.

This is when the thoughtful professors step in. They use homework to force knowledge points into the little wizards' heads.

“Ahhhhh it’s too late—”

The feather pen in Cologne's hand was so fast that it almost flew off, and his face looked like he was about to collapse.

"Eugene! Bernard! Uther! Help!"

Why is there no Adam? Because Adam’s homework is different from theirs.

"I just told you that there's a lot of homework this time, so you shouldn't leave it until the last day."

Uther reluctantly placed the three people's homework in front of him.

“You didn’t say this is a bit much, twice as much as last weekend, wuwuwuqaq”

"You'd better write it quickly if you have the time."

Adam reminded, pulling out the letter he received during dinner from his satchel.

It was from his grandmother...and it was the first letter she had written to him since he had written to her asking about Nicolas Flamel.

Chapter 37 Professor McGonagall's Silence Is Deafening

"Dear Adam, please forgive me for taking so long to reply to your letter. After reading your letter, I hesitated for a long time and communicated with Mr. and Mrs. Flamel before I finally made up my mind to write these words.

Before I tell you everything, I want to acknowledge your intelligence and acumen. You were able to track down the Philosopher's Stone using a name that was centuries away from you, which surprised both Mr. and Mrs. Flamel. I am proud of you, my dear.

Back to the topic, if you have found Mr. Flamel's information, you should also know that they are French and come from the same land as your grandmother, that is, me. In fact, my great-great-grandfather is the great-great-grandson of Mrs. Flamel's brother.

I know that you may feel that this relationship is too distant after reading this, and I feel the same way. The protagonists of some of the interesting stories they mentioned when I was a child are already ancestors so distant that it is difficult to trace them back. We, the descendants, should not disturb the secluded life of our ancestors, so our family has never had any contact with the Flamel couple-until you mentioned that bad premonition before. "

After reading the first piece of letter, Adam was shocked.

Nicolas Flamel is actually his ancestor?

Oh, no, that's not right. My ancestor is the younger brother of Nicolas Flamel's wife. He is a relative of Madame Flamel, but he has only some relationship with Nicolas Flamel. However, it can be considered a relative.

As we continued reading, Grandma Emma told us everything about their family - there wasn't much to say in detail, she just went into detail about their family's interactions with the Flamel couple over the years. Just as Grandma Emma said, they were basically stories about ancestors so distant that they were difficult to trace, and the intersections became fewer and fewer as we went on.

What Adam was more concerned about was that at the end of the letter, Grandma Emma said that Nicolas Flamel invited him to visit their home again during the holidays.

Although he didn't know why, Adam wanted to find Nicolas Flamel again. After all, if nothing unexpected happened, the Philosopher's Stone would be destroyed this semester, and the Flamel couple would end their lives of more than 600 years.

The door key given by Nicolas Flamel did provide him with an effective way of escape at the time, although he does not need it very much now. Later, Professor Dumbledore's guidance to him and allowing him to visit Fawkes frequently were also due to Nicolas Flamel.

He should at least go and see them off, or if they still want to continue living...

He has quite a lot of magic stones here.

The weather is getting hotter day by day, and the exam date is approaching, making students more and more anxious.
