The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

On Christmas day, when Link woke up from his sleep, the entire Forlì Castle and a large green area around it were changed into a very Christmas atmosphere.

It's what Little Button and his house-elf colleagues worked on all night.

They even built a huge ice crystal Christmas tree in the hall of the castle,

Reinforced by the special magic of the house elves, even though the fireplace in the castle is as warm as spring, this ice crystal Christmas tree still shows no sign of melting.

However, Link believes that the most Christmas atmosphere in the entire castle is the gifts stacked by his bed.

Perhaps it was because he met a large group of members of the Merlin Corps at the award ceremony yesterday. This Christmas, Link received a lot of gifts, and it took Link all morning just to unpack the gift box.

Although most of these gifts were in the form of courtesy, and the energy expended was very large, Link was still very happy during the whole process of opening the gifts.

After all, for Link, who doesn't need to think about returning gifts, this kind of thing is basically equivalent to prostitution, and prostitution can inspire the most primitive kind of happiness in human beings.

Of course, some of the Christmas gifts in this pile were really thoughtful.

It's like the magic snow globe sent by Cedric, which contains a Hufflepuff Quidditch player riding a broom, circling and chasing the Golden Snitch in the snow. There will also be a light band behind the butt, which is very beautiful.

According to the letter accompanying the gift, Cedric was recently studying alchemy, and this magic snow globe was the first finished product made by himself.

Quite a memorable gift.

Hermione gave Link two pairs of signed football boots. It's a pity that Link doesn't know much about football, and the signatures on them are so flamboyant that Link doesn't recognize whose shoes they are.

But that didn't stop him from taking a few seconds of silence for Mr. Granger and putting it in a specially made transparent display case in the room.

Mrs. Foley, uncharacteristically, did not prepare any expensive gifts this year, but sent a beige scarf instead.

To be honest, this scarf is not very good-looking, there is no pattern on it at all, and the stitching is not very dense.

But Link happily wore it around his neck after receiving it.

Because according to the whistleblower from Little Button, this scarf was woven by Mrs. Foley herself without the use of magic. For this reason, the unskilled Mrs. Foley even had a few more needles in her hands.

Link was very moved by this, of course, when he deliberately ignored the remarks about Mrs. Foley's finger poking in the second half of the little button.

After all, Link is not a guy who doesn't touch the spring water with his five fingers. He still knows what needles he will use to knit a scarf.

But what is Link looking forward to the most among all the gifts.

It must have been a gift from Snape.

After all, as Snape's potion master, the things he sent should be very practical.

For example, last year he gave Link a bottle of Flux, which directly caused Link to turn around in the final battle of the Forbidden Forest.

If possible, Link even hoped that Snape would be more generous and directly send him ten and eight research notebooks, so that he could have a good time brushing potions experience.

However, when Link actually opened the gray gift box with a strong Snape temperament, he was disappointed.

Because there is still a bottle of Fuling Elixir inside.

"Alas! What a perfunctory!"

Link groaned and groaned.

At the same time, he hung the full bottle of high-quality Fuling Elixir around his neck.

Link's behavior of constantly hanging things around his neck also aroused the dissatisfaction of the Winged Demon Yo-Yo. It screamed 'crunchly', and stretched out two small claws to scratch, trying to put the scarf and the yo-yo. The two things that had seized its territory were pushed away.

___*(￣Dish￣)#____

"Fine,

Yo-yo, don't make trouble. "

Link gently kneaded the soft flesh of the Winged Demon yo-yo as Newt had taught him before, before letting it quiet for a while.

Afterwards, Link rummaged through the gray cardboard box a little unwillingly, and stopped when he saw that there was really nothing else.

At this moment, Link really hoped that Snape could learn more about himself and give him some more practical things.

For example, Link's gifts to Snape this year are "Quick Love Guide" written by famous journalist Rita Skeeter and "How to Make Your Smile More Charming" written by Gilderoy Lockhart.

Although the guys who wrote these two books have a little bit of that, the content in the books is not very reliable.

But Link felt that even a book of this level would be of great help to a guy like Snape with no basic knowledge.

Especially the latter, Snape really should learn how to smile.

Thinking of this, Link's mind also automatically came up with the wonderful expression that Snape would have when he received this gift.

This made Link laugh out loud.

After laughing for a while, Link finally calmed down and walked out of the room happily wearing a scarf.

Compared to usual, today's Forlì Castle is quite lively.

Because in addition to Mrs. Foley and Link, old Kled and other house-elves in the castle were also invited to appear in the hall to spend this annual festival together.

Old Kled and the house elves were very happy about this. After all, not only did Link not go home last Christmas, Mrs. Foley also went to her hometown in Germany, and the castle was deserted.

Of course, the reason why they are so excited is because of the gift bonus.

Among them, old Kled's gift was a large bottle of precious Salamander citrus rum, and the house-elves were full of baskets of candy.

After the revelry, Mrs. Foley and Link really got peace.

They sat quietly in front of the fireplace and burned the fire, and from time to time they found some topics to talk about, but more often they were just in a daze or closed their eyes for a nap.

This kind of leisure looks boring at first glance, but both Link and Mrs. Foley feel very comfortable and warm.

These two people have always been in a very high-pressure environment, and being able to spend a whole day in such a comfortable environment is actually a very luxurious and stress-relieving thing.

More so for Mrs Foley.

Since Link started school, they had been together less often, so although Mrs. Foley's burden was a little lighter, her heart was empty.

Mrs. Foley even wished this time could go on forever, if she could.

However, this must be a luxury.

Because on the morning of the second day of Christmas, Link changed into his Hogwarts uniform and stood in front of the fireplace.
