Chapter 18: Chapter 18: The Hogwarts Kitchen
Before he knows it, Alvin's first week at Hogwarts has just passed.
And his genius name has slowly spread at Hogwarts. He scored Ravenclaw in almost every class. Except for the history of magic.
Professor Binns never gives credit to students.
Even Professor McGonagall went so far as to openly invite Alvin to join his Transfiguration Club.
For the first time, Professor McGonagall has invited a freshman to join her Transfiguration Club.
For a time, Alvin's reputation spread among the little wizards and coupled with his excellent appearance, no matter where he went, there would be little witches secretly observing him.
When Alvin noticed their eyes, he quickly looked away shyly, but some daring little witches were not only not shy, but also gave him a generous wink. It made Cho jealous again and again.
Alvin's waist suffered a lot.
On Friday afternoon, Alvin and Cho were doing their homework in the Ravenclaw Common Room.
Suddenly, Alvin remembered the invitation from the Weasley twins and looked up at Cho next to him.
"Cho, George, and Fred invited me to meet in the hallway on the fourth floor at midnight tomorrow. Do you want to come?"
Cho raised his head and looked at Alvin in surprise.
"Can I go?"
Although Cho asked this, Alvin saw the expectation in the eyes of the little witch.
With a relaxed smile, Alvin replied affirmatively.
"Of course, you can, although I don't know what they called me for, you should be fine to come. They seem to have invited other people too."
Cho got an affirmative reply from Alvin and was very happy. She didn't care about any homework and kept pulling Alvin to chat about what they might do tomorrow.
Looking forward to it.
Alvin simply put down the pen and chatted with Cho, about homework or something, he can write anytime.
And just like that, it's Saturday night.
Near midnight, Alvin left his bedroom and came to the common room.
In the lounge, only Cho sat there, holding a copy of the History of Quidditch in his hand.
It's just that her eyes glanced at the door of the boy's Dorms from time to time. The mind is not on the book.
Seeing Cho's anxiety, Alvin also walked to her side in two or three steps and patted her head gently. smile fondly
"I kept you waiting, let's go now"
Cho returned a warm smile, put down the book, and followed Alvin out of the lounge. Alvin took out his wand, held Cho with one hand, and gently tapped Cho's body with the other hand, and Cho's figure suddenly became transparent.
Then Alvin tapped on himself and disappeared. Cho feels very magical. She stretched out his other hand and shook it. But she didn't see it.
"What kind of magic is this, so amazing"
"Disillusionment Charm, if you want to learn it, I'll teach you later. Now hold my hand tightly, don't let it go, or I won't be able to find out where you are."
If George and Fred were here, they would complain about Alvin's double standard. We will be forced to secretly go to the forbidden book area to study, and you will teach Cho in person.
Of course, if Alvin knew about it, he would not care. Just kidding, you are not a beautiful girl. Where do so many demands come from?
The two held hands all the way and came to the right corridor on the fourth floor, where they found the twins standing in a corner with a black brother next to them.
After dispelling the disillusionment charm, Alvin waved at the three
"George! Fred!"
The three of them turned around in an instant and saw the two of them holding hands. One of the twins has a funny tone.
"As expected of Master Gaunt, even if you go out at night, you have to bring a beautiful girl with you."
Cho Chang lowered her head shyly. Although many people knew about her relationship with Alvin, she still felt embarrassed when she heard the twins' teasing.
Alvin slapped the twins on the shoulders.
"This is Cho, my girlfriend. Won't you introduce me to this one?"
Alvin saw the little black brother next to him.
Without waiting for the twins to speak, the little black brother spoke by himself and introduced himself.
"Hi, my name is Lee Jordan, brothers George and Fred, and they mentioned you to me, Alvin Gaunt. You did a great job that day, and it's been a long time since anyone could successfully prank them."
After he finished speaking, he gave a thumbs up, showing his big white teeth, and smiled at Alvin.
Cho Chang covered his mouth hard to prevent himself from laughing. Lee Jordan looks so naive.
Alvin couldn't help but want to laugh, but he remembered who him. The Quidditch narrator in the movie was always reprimanded by Professor McGonagall for pulling the sidelines.
Best friends of Fred and George.
A nod to Lee Jordan
"Just call me Alvin."
After a few people got to know each other, Alvin asked curiously.
"So, what are we doing out so late? And Lee, what's in the bag you're holding?"
George and Fred looked at each other and smiled mysteriously. They leaned over to Alvin's side
"We're going to take you to one of the most mysterious places in Hogwarts, and trust me, you'll love it. As for what's in the bag, you'll find out."
After finishing speaking, regardless of Alvin's reaction, the two took Lee Jordan and led the way downstairs.
Alvin and Cho looked at each other and could only follow behind.
Luckily along the way, the group did not encounter Filch and his cat. Came to the basement floor. When he got here, he understood that we were going to the kitchen.
Sure enough, the twins stopped before another picture full of food. Among them, was a silver bowl filled with various fruits. One of the twins stepped forward and gently scratched a large green Pear.
Pear wriggled, smiled silly, and suddenly protruded from the painting and twisted into a doorknob. Then, with a pull, the door opened.
Walk through the door and inside is a large room with a very high ceiling. The area is almost the same size as the auditorium, and there are many clean copper dishes stacked against the surrounding stone walls.
More than a hundred elves are busy inside. After seeing Alvin and his party coming in, a house-elf who seemed to be the lead came over. bow respectfully
"Good evening, Mr. Weasley and his companions. My name is Ning, may I be of any assistance to you?"
The twins are regulars here, and the elves already know them.
The twins are also welcome and said carelessly
"Get us some dinner, some Dessert, and by the way, get us a pot of Black Tea, and a few cups."
