Hogwarts Crawler.

"Hiss - forget it, but if everyone insists..."

Adam's eyes suddenly lit up:

“It’s not completely impossible!”

……

"I declare that the first Hogwarts Spring Festival Gala officially begins!"

Professor Dumbledore, wearing a bright red robe, stood at the front of the auditorium with his hands raised, speaking excitedly.

There was a burst of warm applause in the auditorium.

"Cough-cough-"

Professor Dumbledore pulled a red program from his pocket and cleared his throat:

"So, for the first show, the Slytherin team, led by Draco Malfoy, will bring us... um... a catwalk performance?"

Professor Dumbledore blinked.

"Why was our show replaced?!"

Draco was half-forced to change into a Tang suit backstage. His already fair face looked very pleasing in the silver suit.

"Your original program was cancelled. Programs like 'My Father, the School Director'... such programs are absolutely not allowed to appear in the party!"

Adam held the menu in his hand and slapped it on Draco's head:

"Okay, go up quickly and take your teammates with you."

"Humph!"

Draco snorted coldly, turned around and called Crabbe and Goyle to leave. If it weren't for the fact that this outfit was pretty good...

Although Crabbe and Goyle were not as pleasing to the eye as Draco, they looked fierce and chubby in their festive outfits, which made Draco look even more outstanding.

Well, I feel like this dress will be a big seller...

Looking at Draco's back, Adam touched his chin and felt that he had found a new business opportunity.

Chapter 78: Life goes on, and death continues

"The competition will begin next. Students who have registered please go backstage to prepare. The rest of you can enjoy the food in front of you~"

Professor Dumbledore glanced at the list of candidates, which was almost entirely made up of Hufflepuff students, and sighed inwardly.

Hufflepuff started preparing a month in advance, while other colleges only received the notice yesterday. How can they compare?

Facts have proven this to be true; the only few teams from other colleges were there just to make up the numbers, and all the teams that made it to the semi-finals in the three games were Hufflepuff students.

The other colleges that were forced to join in halfway had no objection, and even those teams were the same, all of which were preparations for participating in the competition next year.

The first competition to start and end was the lion dance. A complete lion dance performance requires ten years of hard work to perform for just one minute on stage, but Adam's side obviously couldn't be so strict. Each team was given three minutes to perform freely, and the four deans, Professor Dumbledore and Adam were responsible for scoring.

In the end, Cedric and his roommates won unanimous praise with the most exquisite lion dance shape and the most agile performance, and won the championship with a full score.

By the way, Adam thought that the lion tail with the butt wiggling so sexy was Cedric's roommate, but who would have thought it was Cedric himself.

This kid, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, actually...

"Are you sure it's you two?"

What Adam is awarding is the first prize in the lion dance competition, which is the championship trophy of the first Hogwarts Lion Dance Competition and a quota for one year's worth of Lion Dance Pastries. Both the lion head and the lion tail can be obtained.

Of course, although it is called a year, it actually only applies during the period of studying at Hogwarts, and one can only come to pick it up on the two days a week when Adam is open. One can pick up five coins a day. As for the range of a year, it is from the first day of the Lunar New Year tomorrow to the New Year's Eve of next year, but it is obviously enough to satisfy the two of them.

Cedric took the reward himself, while his roommate blushed and gave it to another Hufflepuff girl.

Adam, who had eaten a mouthful of dog food for no reason, said: "..."

All right, as long as you are happy. If you want to get married after graduation, he also provides wedding candy and wedding cake customization~

In addition to the reward for the first place, there are also runner-up and third place trophies respectively. Like the championship trophy, they are all in the shape of a lion dance, but the degree of luxury of the three is different in appearance.

In addition, each participating team member will receive a lion-awake pastry as a participation prize.

After the lion dance competition, the dragon dance competition and the lantern competition followed.

Compared to lion dancing, dragon dancing is basically a competition of pure hands-on ability, which is similar to the lantern competition. After all, lion dancing allows for free expression, while dragon dancing does not have much room for expression.

In the end, Vivian's dormitory won the championship of the dragon dance competition. It can be seen that the dragon head had studied the dragon shape in China, and they were the only team that made a dragon ball.

The champion of the lantern competition was Qiu Zhang, who looked Asian. The golden phoenix silhouette on the big red lantern looked like it was about to take off, and it looked more lively after the candles were lit.

After the awards were distributed, New Year's Eve at Hogwarts was almost over.

Back in the Hufflepuff common room, everyone tacitly did not leave but waited together in the common room. Professor Sprout was also there.

Not long after, an indescribable fragrance wafted from the direction of the boys' dormitory. Everyone, who had just eaten until they were 80% full in the auditorium, swallowed their saliva and couldn't help feeling a little hungry again.

What kind of delicacy is this? It's so horrible...

"Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is here~"

When the fragrance enveloped everyone, Adam's voice finally came.

Dried abalone, sea cucumber, fish maw, ham, shiitake mushrooms, pig's trotters, winter bamboo shoots, scallops, clams... more than ten kinds of high-quality ingredients are processed separately, added into old hen soup, sealed in a jar, and simmered over low heat for about sixteen hours. Now that it has been opened, even Adam feels his saliva secreting rapidly.

Because everyone had already had dinner, Adam didn't prepare much. Each person had a clay pot. However, he did not skimp on the ingredients. Everyone had a clay pot with various ingredients.

It was this clay pot of Buddha Jumps Over the Wall that made the Hufflepuffs feel the charm of Chinese cuisine and laid a solid foundation for the only soup to be on the top 10 best-selling list of Adam's Restaurant in the future.

Perhaps it was because Adam had put too much energy into the New Year, and Lockhart, who hadn't been close to his new female fan for a while, felt that he was ready again and found a time that he thought was very appropriate.

Just as Adam was preparing for the Lantern Festival, Valentine's Day arrived at Hogwarts first...

On Valentine's Day, Adam couldn't help but pause when he walked into the auditorium.

The auditorium, which was wrapped in bright red a few days ago, was now filled with pink flowers, and heart-shaped pieces of paper were falling from the ceiling - the dishes on the company commander's table were filled with these pieces of paper, and it was obvious that these pieces of paper were not edible.

Adam soon realized who was behind all this, and looked towards the teachers' table, where he found Lockhart watching it all with satisfaction.

Ugh……

Adam even felt a little tired at this moment. From the perspective of psychological quality, Lockhart was really a talent. Every time Adam thought that he could cause him serious psychological harm, he could quickly adjust his state and start to commit suicide again.

Perhaps for Lockhart, not being able to attract everyone's attention is more painful than death...

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!"

Seeing that almost all four long tables were occupied, Lockhart spoke excitedly, seemingly not noticing the cold faces of his colleagues around him and the disdain of the students below:

"Yes, I made these surprises for everyone to thank the 71 fans who sent me Valentine's Day cards and those who were too shy to express their love for me~"

Lockhart said with a bright smile.

At this moment, an owl happened to fly into the hall and flew to Lockhart. Lockhart took down the envelope with a big heart on it:

"Oh - another love letter, thanks to this fan!"

“Who the hell is sending him Valentine’s Day cards?”

Cologne couldn't help but whisper.

Thanks to the Chinese New Year that just passed and the upcoming Lantern Festival, he didn't even notice the arrival of Valentine's Day.

"Who knows, maybe it was him."

Uther's mouth curled up into a mocking smile:

"The last time I went to ask Professor Flitwick about Lockhart, Professor Flitwick shared with me some 'interesting stories' about Professor Lockhart - for example, when this professor was studying at Hogwarts, he mailed hundreds of love letters to himself on a Valentine's Day..."

"Hiss—writing a love letter to yourself? Why?"

After hearing what Cologne said, Uther looked at Lockhart who was sitting in the teacher's seat:

"Perhaps he wanted to make everyone think that he was popular, but now the professor has obviously realized that it is not realistic to send hundreds of love letters at the same time."

Chapter 79: The End of Lockhart

"By the way, why did you go to Professor Flitwick?"

Bernard discovered a new problem.

"What's so strange about this? Hasn't Adam also been taking extra lessons from Professor Flitwick?"

Uther raised his eyebrows:

"I found out that Professor Flitwick once won the dueling championship, so I asked him for advice on this subject."

Eugene looked at Uther:

"Are you interested in the duel tournament?"

"Hmm~"

"Dueling Contest?"

Bernard thought.

However, they were not in the mood to discuss the topic of the dueling competition. Following Lockhart's signal, a group of dwarfs dressed as Cupid and angels walked into the auditorium.

How should I put it... Although there is nothing wrong with this outfit, the appearance of the dwarf species is similar to that of a mandrake that has grown up and broken through the ground, so the final result can only be described as extremely uncomfortable to the eyes.

“Welcome our friendly little cupid with a greeting card!”

Lockhart applauded the dwarves, but he seemed to be the only one in the whole hall who was happy. However, Lockhart did not seem to care:

"They will be wandering around the school today, delivering Valentine's Day cards for you! Not only that, I believe my colleagues will also be eager to participate!"

Lockhart winked mischievously at them all:

"Why don't you ask Professor Snape to teach you how to brew a love potion?"

Adam couldn't help but look at Professor Snape.

Professor, can you tolerate this?

Professor Snape's expression was uglier than ever. It wasn't as ugly as it was today when he drew Harry last time. If anyone really dared to ask, they would probably be thrown directly into the crucible, right?

Lockhart's dangerous speech is not over yet:

"If you are interested, I believe Professor Flitwick is better at psychedelic magic than any wizard - oh, this cunning old guy~"

Adam glanced at Professor Flitwick again. The respected but thin-skinned Head of Ravenclaw looked like he was about to break...

Lockhart smacked his lips in satisfaction and did not continue.

In fact, his original plan was more than that. Seeing how Adam had made a great success in organizing a festival that no one had ever heard of and how he had attracted the attention of the entire school, Lockhart certainly considered him.

But thinking carefully, Adam seemed to be no worse than him in this respect. What if Adam attracted everyone's attention?

So in the end Lockhart gave up this tempting decision.

It’s a pity that Lockhart let Adam go, but Adam had no intention of letting him go.

During the morning class, one dwarf after another broke into their greenhouse No. 2 and recited or sang love letters to someone in the classroom in their hoarse voices, accompanied by the absurd harp performance.

At the time, Adam felt uncomfortable, but he had to admit that there was still a certain element of gloating in it, especially since one of them was Uther, until it was his turn...

After class, Adam walked up to the female classmate who was almost petrified because she didn't expect the dwarf to send a love letter in this way, rejected her confession in a gentle voice, and then picked up the Dark Staff and rushed to Lockhart's office.

"Count me in!"

Uther drew his wand expressionlessly.

Of course, how could Adam do such a terrible thing as attacking the professor directly or casting a spell?

Of course, Uther would never do something so impulsive.

"Calm down Adam!"

Bernard held Adam's waist tightly.

"Let me go! I'm going to kill him ahhhh——"

"Uther, wake up! Murder is against the law!"
