The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts Chapter 127

On another channel, the Minister of Finance's speech was being played. Hermione was about to change channels, but was stopped by Tom: Tom felt familiar with the person just now, and after thinking about it carefully, Tom found that he had appeared in Chris' memory. !

Tom's eyes became dangerous when he saw Eric, the Minister of Finance, under the headline.

But then Hermione changed the stage.

"It's all boring clichés." She switched a few more channels, but she didn't see a program that suits her liking, so she simply turned off the TV.

"What can I do?" She felt a little bored for a while, but her eyes suddenly lit up when she saw Tom, "Let's go fishing!" She suddenly made such a suggestion.

"I still remember when I first met you, you went fishing at that lake!"

When Hermione said this, Tom also recalled the scene when the two first met.

He showed a smile, "Winter is not very suitable for fishing, and it's a bit cold outside."

"It's okay!" Hermione jumped up from the sofa, ran quickly to the storage room on the third floor, and took a fishing rod down. Then, Hermione and Tom went outside together.

In this place in London, although it is rainy and rainy all year round, the temperature below zero is still very rare. The average daily minimum temperature in December is 3°C, and the daily average maximum temperature is 8°C. cozy.

On the way to the lake, Tom gave Hermione a little knowledge about winter fishing.

Generally speaking, winter is not very suitable for fishing, because the water temperature at this time is too low, and the fish will become inactive and have no appetite due to the lower water temperature. If you don't want to eat bait, you will naturally not be hooked. However, it's not that you can't fish in winter, you just need the right way. There are many fishermen who even go fishing in winter.

For example, if you open an opening in a frozen lake, fish will gather nearby for air. Or the weather is also a very important factor. On the day of cooling, the cold air will take away the heat of the water, making the upper water surface colder, the cold water sinks, and convection with the warm water in the lower layer. At this time, the fish in the water will eat quickly. Store energy.

Tom and Hermione came to the lake. At this time, it can be said that everything is withering, and the green shades by the lake have disappeared, and the water plants by the lake are also a little yellow. Tom was not in a hurry to stop to fish, he started walking around the lake.

In winter fishing, it is also important to choose a place with stable water temperature.

In the end, he chose a lake surface that could be found by the sun. There was a groove on the edge of the lake, and the lake water was almost still here.

Tom sat here and cast the bait down. Hermione sat beside him, the ends of her hair brushing against his nose, making him ticklish. He shook his head slightly, resisting the urge to sneeze. It was a little uncomfortable, but the shampoo Hermione was using smelled weird.

Blue sky and white clouds, peaceful holiday, peaceful lakeside, plus a lovely girl, time freezes at this moment...

Life at the Granger family was comfortable. Although Tom was a little nervous when he met the Grangers on the first day, he gradually let go. During the time he stayed at the Granger's house, Tom even became a "child of someone else's family", which was also a rare experience for Hermione:

"Hermione, you're in bed again—"

"Hermione, look at Tom, they're studying when they wake up in the morning..."

"Hermione Granger—!"

Hermione: (((;???;)))

Seeing Hermione's expression, Tom felt that there was a high probability that he would not be invited next year.

The days went by like this, and the Christmas holidays disappeared all of a sudden, as if the holidays never existed. After the Christmas break, the calendar jumped to 1993.

Four months have passed since the battle in the lounge, and life at Hogwarts is back on track. In March, the mandrakes that Professor Sprout had cultivated for nearly half a year held a lively, noisy and dangerous dance party in the third greenhouse.

These mandrakes are nearing maturity, and their cry is deadly.

By the time they want to move to other mandrakes' pots, they are fully mature. At that time, the petrified "Tom" in the ward will be rescued.

With April comes Easter.

There are two major holidays in the Hogwarts school year: Christmas and Easter. Easter is an important festival in the western world. It falls on the first Sunday after the full moon of the vernal equinox every year. Since the day of the vernal equinox is not fixed every year, the specific date of Easter is also uncertain every year.

Easter in 1993 was on April 11, which happened to be a Sunday.

During the Easter holiday, all the professors left homework, except Tom - he has to take the exam after the holiday, so he exempted all the homework, and only asked everyone to review. To be honest, most students would rather he leave a foot-long essay or something like an assignment than face a test.

Sophomores think about one more thing than their peers in other grades: course selection. UU reading www.uukanshu.com The curriculum at Hogwarts is somewhat similar to other British universities. The first and second grades only take seven compulsory courses: Transfiguration, Charms, Potions, Herbs, History of Magic, Defense Against the Dark Arts, and Astronomy. Of course, there are also two limited courses: flying and apparition. There are training sessions, which are only available at certain times. In the third year, students also choose to study at least two subjects from five elective subjects: divination, arithmetic divination, Muggle studies, ancient runic studies, and protection of magical creatures.

After entering the fifth grade and taking the o.w.l. exam, students can choose subjects from their favorite professors, and they can also study some special subjects, such as alchemy.

The little wizards, including Tom, should choose the third-year course. In Hermione's opinion, this matter needs to be treated with caution.

"Really, you might as well keep Lockhart's identity and keep teaching." While studying the new class, Hermione gave Tom an unreliable suggestion.

"Forget it, I'll resign when I send this year's students to the exam room." Tom firmly stated that he would never teach as Lockhart again, not to mention the curse and the imminent maturity of Mandrakes. It was the stress of work that kept Tom out of breath - a real 997, almost 7 days a week! If he became the dean, it would be a direct incarnation of 007—Professor Snape didn't even have time to wash his hair.

"I've studied it, and this course selection will affect our entire future!" Hermione said to Tom seriously, "So what do you think, which courses do you want to sign up for?"
