Hogwarts, where the stars shine

Chapter 123, Undina Adjani



On a snowy day, Professor Snape began to count the list of students staying in school during the holidays.Mesa's name once again hung alone on the parchment.

Lilia's family is going on vacation to enjoy the hot sunshine of the southern hemisphere; Sean Hart is going home to reunite and visit his Muggle relatives; Tonks is also going home, and she has also extended an invitation to Mesa .

As for Penelo... Miss Crevat's holiday arrangements are unknown to Mesa.Since that day, the two of them have never seen each other alone.

Perhaps it was Mesa's ferocious appearance that left her with lingering fear, or perhaps she realized that she and Mesa were not on the same journey. In short, it seemed that the two of them could not even be friends now.

Even if they meet by chance in the castle or on the grounds, Mesa and Penello are strangers and don't even say hello to each other.

Mesa was deliberately keeping her distance, but Miss Crevat... the girl's thoughts were unpredictable.

Snowflakes are dancing outside the window again, beating on the frozen window lattice, and Christmas is approaching in a blink of an eye.The whole school was immersed in the festive atmosphere.

Hagrid moved twelve Christmas trees alone and placed them one by one in the auditorium. The stair railings were wrapped with holly, which symbolized vitality, and everlasting candles flickered in the helmets of his armor.

Although the perpetrator attacked two girls and put all the girls in the school in danger, he still seemed to have some sense of fairness and did not cause trouble as Christmas approached.

The unrest suddenly stabilized, and everything on campus was getting better, as if confirming Shelley's phrase "Winter is coming, can spring be far behind?"

Undina Adjani recovered when two feet of snow fell on the field.She stayed in the school hospital longer than Belinda of Ravenclaw.

Adjani was not only attacked by the perpetrators, but she also froze in the snow for a long time.However, Adjani's condition looks much better than Belinda's.

When Veranica, Gascoigne and others went to pick her up, Adjani smiled and greeted everyone.It felt like Adjani just had a bad cold, rather than being hijacked and attacked by unknown persons.

I don't know whether I should say that this girl has a strong heart or that she is heartless.

The Slytherin students were delighted with Adjani's return, but few came forward to speak, inquire about her physical condition, or ask what happened at that time.

Everyone thinks that Adjani still needs time to adjust. The physical trauma is easy to recover, but the psychological shadow is not so easy to heal.If you don’t believe it, go check out the former members of the Slytherin Quidditch team. They don’t even play Quidditch anymore.

Mesa thought so at first, so he didn't disturb Ajani's rest, even though he wanted to verify how correct his guess was.

But what Mesa didn't expect was that he didn't bother Ajani, but the other party came to him.

Mesa was staying in his dormitory that night. Christmas was approaching and he was thinking about what he should buy as a holiday gift.

A sudden knock on the door interrupted Mesa's thoughts. He thought it was Gascoigne coming to find him.When he opened the door, he saw Lilia, Veranika and Adjani standing outside the door.

A surprising and unexpected combination.According to Mesa's idea, Adjani should be licking her wounds, Veranika would stay by her side, and Lilia should be packing her bags for a vacation.

"You won't let us in?" Lilia asked mischievously, "Or is there someone hiding in your dormitory?"

With a dark face, Mesa stepped aside and allowed the three girls to enter her dormitory.

Although girls can enter the boys' dormitory at Hogwarts, three people at once is a bit too much.Among them are two eldest sisters who are about to become adults.

Lilia took over Mesa's bed carelessly and took the "Today's Transfiguration" that Mesa placed on the bedside.

Unlike Lilia, who comes often, Veronica, who has only been here once, seems a bit reserved, and even her movements when sitting down give people a stiff feeling.

On the contrary, Adjani was not as presumptuous as Lilia, but she found a seat to sit down equally generously.She didn't act like it was her first visit, but rather like she had known Mesa for a long time.

"I am Undine Adjani." Adjani said, "Thank you very much for saving me in the snow, otherwise I might have frozen to death in the bad weather in Scotland."

This was the first time that Mesa took a closer look at the senior sister Adjani. She was not the kind of girl who was stunning at first glance, but she was very charming.Blue eyes and flowing black hair, like flowers blooming quietly at midnight.

"I just did what I had to do," Mesa said. "Hagrid, the gamekeeper, would have found you even without me."

He did not choose to sit on the same bed as Lilia, but sat on a box.Mesa is a boy and doesn't care about rumors, but he has to think about Lilia.

Mesa didn't pay much attention to this kind of thing before, but after a conversation with Crevat, he began to realize that something was wrong.Mesa did not want Lilia to suffer verbal criticism from others.

"No. My gratitude is not simply that you saved me, Mesa." Adjani said, "Can I call you Mesa?"

"You can also call him Mr. White." Lilia interjected. She put "Transfiguration Today" back on the bedside and picked up a copy of "The Tales of Beedle the Bard" next to it.

Adjani was a little confused and asked: "Mr. White?" Suddenly Adjani thought of the reason again and said with a smile: "Your girlfriend Lilia is so cute."

Wendina Adjani's smile is gentle and gentle, as warm as the spring breeze, completely different from the coldness when she doesn't smile.

"Please note that I am not his girlfriend yet." Lilia said angrily, "Besides, the purpose of you asking me to bring you here is not to satisfy your desire for gossip."

Adjani looked like someone who had come before. There was only one person in the whole room who didn't know what riddle everyone was playing.

The reserved Veranika was like a chick trapped in an eagle's nest. She was so nervous that she was trembling all over.God knows why Veranica is so afraid of Mesa.

"I've heard it from Professor Snape, Mesa." Adjani said seriously, "Even if he doesn't say it, I know your embarrassing situation. Anyway, I have time to stay in Slytherin House. It’s also longer than you.”

Needless to say, the students in the house know how bad the situation of Muggle-borns is in Slytherin House.The phrase "mudblood" can be highly summarized.

If we go forward a few decades or ten years, if Muggle-born people at that time were assigned to Slytherin, it would be better to drop out of school immediately.

At that time, pure-blood supremacy was prevalent, and even though Dumbledore was still the principal of the school, it was difficult to suppress the exclusion and bullying of Muggle-borns by Slytherin students.

There is even a famous student group within Slytherin College. The students in this group all joined the Death Eaters after graduation and contributed to Voldemort's terrorist cause.

Although it is no better than before, Mesa's character determines his behavior, and his behavior also makes the conflict between the two parties more acute.But due to Mesa's personal strength, this contradiction turned from bright to dark and was deeply buried.

"You are the first person to discover me, so you are very likely to be misunderstood as the murderer." Adjani said, "If it weren't for Belinda's incident, this probability would be greatly increased."

That night in the snow, Mesa hesitated because of this, worried that he would take the blame again.Fortunately, the students were not hopelessly stupid, and they did not force the accusation on Mesa again.

Mesa smiled and said, "Okay, I accept your thanks. But I believe that you came here today not just to say thank you. If you have anything to say, you might as well say it directly."

Although Adjani made people feel very comfortable, like a cool breeze blowing on their faces, Mesa decided to end the politeness and get down to business.Adjani didn't take a good rest, but she came here to look for her. Something must have happened!

"Of course, I asked Lilia to introduce you today just because I want to talk to you about what happened that day." Adjani said, "I believe you have the ability to help me."
