"Weasley, would you like to see my new pet?"
Malfoy waved at Ron with a smile, and took out a glass bottle from his robe pocket. The glass bottle contained a spider he had just caught at school. He held the glass bottle in front of Ron and asked maliciously, "Look, this is my new pet. Isn't it cute?"
As he spoke, Malfoy poured a spider out of a glass bottle and handed it to Ron, who was so frightened that he took a step back and almost fell down.
Ron's embarrassed look made the others, led by Malfoy, laugh triumphantly.
"Get away Malfoy."
Harry stepped forward, stood in front of Ron, and blocked the spider that Malfoy handed to him.
"Oh, I almost forgot. Poor Weasley seems to be afraid of spiders. His house is so shabby, there should be a lot of spiders. How could he be afraid of spiders?" Malfoy put the spider back into the glass bottle with a smile and mocked unscrupulously.
"You must have just chewed feces in the toilet bowl in the bathroom. Your mouth stinks. Or did you drink too much water from the chamber pot last time? Your bad breath hasn't gone away yet?"
George appeared beside Malfoy without knowing when, put his arm around his neck, took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket and handed it to Malfoy, saying with a smile: "I have chewing gum specially for treating bad breath. Would you like a piece? It can treat the feces spraying from your mouth."
"Get lost."
Malfoy pushed the gum away in disgust, as if it were something horrible.
"George, you shouldn't waste your high-quality goods on people like this."
Fred reached out and took the gum that George was about to hand to Malfoy, opened the wrapper, and threw it directly into his mouth to chew, not forgetting to blow a bubble at Malfoy.
"Well, it's a shame that the gum that can cure bad breath is gone."
George let go of Malfoy's neck and pushed him towards Goyle who was beside him. He shook his head and said, "Halitosis is not shameful. If you want to buy chewing gum to treat bad breath, you can come to us. One Galleon per piece. It is good quality, cheap, affordable and effective. It can quickly solve your bad breath problem."
"Fred and George are right, Malfoy's mouth does stink." Harry covered his nose in disgust and pulled Ron away, as if Malfoy was a pile of shit.
"you… "
Malfoy was furious, but had no place to vent.
"Malfoy's mouth really stinks." Ron thought Fred and George were absolutely right. "He definitely doesn't brush his teeth every day."
Hermione, who was sitting on the side, wanted to laugh. She was opening the Easter eggs sent from home. She reached out and took out a piece of chocolate-flavored marshmallow and threw it into her mouth. Sweet food made Hermione's mood a lot better recently.
Of course, there is another reason. Hermione received help from Albert not long ago, and her study pressure was greatly reduced.
Besides, she was already planning to give up Divination and Muggle Studies and get a normal homework schedule.
Hermione carefully put away the Easter eggs, intending to find a chance to share them with Albert to thank him for his help.
"Are you guys going to the Defense Society next time?" Hermione said to Harry and Ron. "I heard it might be a practical exercise this time."
"Defense... what?" Harry looked at Hermione in confusion. "Go to your Defense Against the Dark Arts club?"
"Didn't that thing disband last year?" Ron said puzzledly.
"The Defense Association?" Hermione corrected. "It's a gathering organized by Albert. It's said to help everyone pass the O.W.Ls exams better. I heard from them that last time Albert talked to everyone about the key points of the Defense Against the Dark Arts exam, that is, what knowledge points might be tested."
"How does he know what will be on the exam? Oh, right, he can predict. Could it be that Albert directly predicted the future exam questions?" Ron suddenly felt that it was also important to learn divination well. If they could predict the future exam questions, they wouldn't have to worry about the exam at all.
"Please, can you please not think of the prophecy in such a low level way?" Hermione was speechless and asked, "Do you want to go together?"
"When?" Harry asked.
"It should be in the near future, it seems to start at 8 o'clock in the evening." Hermione is looking forward to this party. "Everyone says that they can learn a lot of useful things from Albert, which is more useful than reviewing Defense Against the Dark Arts by yourself."
Hermione's wish soon came true. The next gathering was at eight o'clock the next evening. The three of them quietly went to the seventh floor of the castle and found that a group of people had already gathered there.
"Are you also planning to join the Defense Society?" Harry walked up to Angelina and greeted her.
"Yes, today is a practical class." Angelina said excitedly.
"Anderson seems to be very popular? I just saw a few Slytherin students." Ron whispered to Fred.
“Albert never minded other people coming to his classes.”
"Aren't you afraid that they are here to cause trouble on purpose?" Ron had no doubt that Slytherin students could do such a thing.
"Of course not. If necessary, we believe others will throw them out for us." Fred stood in front of the portrait of Edgar Straugh and waved to several students farther away.
"The password to enter the Chamber of Secrets is sneak. However, if you come here outside of the party hours, you may not be able to find the Chamber of Secrets. Don't ask me why, Hogwarts Castle is just so magical." Fred said the password, opened the entrance to the secret passage, and let everyone in.
Many people were attending the party for the first time and were looking around curiously.
Hermione's attention was more attracted by the light source in the room. When she saw the light as bright as an electric lamp, her mouth opened wide.
"What's wrong, Hermione?" Harry asked confused.
"That..." Hermione pointed to the magic lamp above her head and said, "I dare say this must be a prop invented by Albert himself."
"Okay, quiet down, the party is about to begin." Albert's voice rang out in the room, and everyone looked in his direction.
"We were originally planning to talk about some breaking spells and defensive spells today." Albert patted the box under his butt and said, "However, you may have heard that I received a gift a while ago."
"Boggart?" someone raised a hand.
"Yes, so you have to face Boggart today." Albert stood up from the box and continued, "Boggart has always been one of the required questions in O.W.Ls exams. Whether it appears on the test paper or in the practical exam, I think it's best for everyone not to lose points on this obvious easy-to-scoring question."
"Okay, line up and take turns to face the Boggart. I think this shouldn't be too difficult for you. At least, you should have a mental expectation so that you won't panic if you encounter one during the exam."
"Of course, I don't expect all of you to agree with me." Albert looked around at the whispering crowd and continued, "If you feel that you disagree with or cannot accept what I said, you can stand aside and watch, or just leave. The door is over there, you can just leave quietly. Don't disturb or waste other people's time, otherwise others will definitely send you out. I believe some people will be happy to do so."
"Okay, everyone line up, it's time to start."
