I'm the king of the roll at Hogwarts

Chapter 151 Today's meal at the Walley's

Louis recognized that the person under the cloak should be Tifa.

Judging from the direction she came out from, she should have come out from the basement bathroom.

He quickly cast an Disillusionment Spell and followed, intending to see what Tifa had done.

As a result, when they reached the corner, Tifa seemed to dissolve into the darkness and disappeared without a trace.

Louis didn't give up and looked around for a long time, but still couldn't find any clues.

In desperation, he had to return to the office and plan to analyze the current situation with Catherine.

"You mean... you saw Assistant Instructor Tifa coming out of the basement bathroom with your own eyes?" In the office, Catherine's eyes were a little solemn.

"Yes." Louis knocked on the table: "What was she doing there at night? If she was going to the bathroom, there was no need to go to the basement. There is a private bathroom in the office of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Just now, Justin was attacked. It's hard not to be suspicious..."

"You mean?" Catherine became interested.

“It’s very likely.” Louis paused and continued, “She seemed to have noticed that someone was following her, so she seemed to have used some tricks to escape from my sight.”

"Some little trick?" Catherine repeated emphatically.

"Isn't it some kind of little trick that I don't know about?" Louis spread his hands.

What you said makes so much sense that I am speechless.

"But... in my opinion, she is indeed very suspicious." Catherine, who was sitting on the sofa, changed into a comfortable position and crossed her legs high.

Louis turned his gaze to her and asked curiously, "Why do you think so?"

"Do you remember that time when Luna's Daily Prophet disparaged Lockhart?"

Seeing Louis nod, Catherine continued, "At the time, you thought it might be Lockhart who did it, but we have always overlooked one point, that is, as Lockhart's sister, Tifa actually had a motive for committing the crime..."

"No way, doesn't Tifa hate Lockhart?" Louis asked with a frown.

Catherine covered her mouth and smiled: "Just listen to what women say. If you really believe it, you are a fool..."

Louis clenched his fist and hammered his palm when he heard this, and said as if he had suddenly realized something: "So when you said no, what you really meant was 'yes'?"

"What do you mean by ok or not..." Catherine asked with a frown, then she immediately reacted, her cheeks slightly flushed as she tilted her head and muttered, "In fact, if you had asked again at that time, I would have really agreed..."

“Then…” Louis took the opportunity to make some requests, but was glared back by Catherine.

He shrugged and said helplessly: "Well, if it is really her, then what should we do? Now there is no definite evidence to prove that it was she who summoned the basilisk."

"I have an idea." Catherine let go of her long legs and sat up straight.

"Tell me about it." Louis was quite looking forward to it. After all, Catherine seldom gave him advice in this regard.

Catherine imitated Louis, clenched a fist with one hand and knocked it on the other palm, and said excitedly: "How about we control Tifa and Lockhart first, and then slowly collect evidence...Ah! What are you doing?"

Louis hit Catherine on the head with a knife, interrupting her magical speech.

"You really have muscles all the way through, Little Moon." Louis complained helplessly. Is this woman's brain all about muscles?

"Don't you think about it? It's easy to control them, but what will happen afterwards? What if they spread this matter?"

Catherine looked at Louis as if he was a fool: "Have you forgotten that there is a spell called Oblivion?"

"?" A question mark slowly passed through Louis's head.

But after careful consideration, I found that although this matter sounds unreliable, it always seems feasible.

It seems that there is some truth in this...

“Master, if you think Oblivion is not safe, then Remonia can devour them. Don't worry, no one will find out... hehe, hahahaha.” Remonia interjected, her tone sounding like a classic villain in a TV series, and even her laughter didn't sound like a good thing.

"Okay, okay... Let's stop here for now. Why not ask Sister Solanlian for any ideas when we get home?" Louis quickly stopped the two of them from expressing their opinions. Just kidding, if they continue talking about this, who knows what weird ideas might pop up.

Judging from what Catherine said, she was serious.

Judging from what Lemonia said, she was serious...

Alas, at such a young age, I have to bear so much.

I'm so tired.

However, before going home, he chose to go to the principal's office.

Louis always felt that Dumbledore knew who the real culprit behind the scenes was, and the old man was probably planning to hone himself.

This was also the blind spot he suddenly remembered when he stood in front of the headmaster's office - since Dumbledore could protect people from the basilisk, there was no reason for her not to know who the real murderer was.

Louis asked Dumbledore directly, but he coughed and changed the subject.

"It's quite foggy outside today, Louis. Old people tend to cough when the weather changes. I hope you don't mind..."

Louis thought if you keep coughing your trachea will come out...

"Oh, it's nothing, Professor." Louis nodded politely: "I can understand. After all, it has been sunny outside for three or four days..."

Dumbledore looked at him with resentment, which clearly meant that if you didn't expose me, we could still be good friends.

Louis shrugged and asked, "Then here comes the question, Professor. Shouldn't Fudge come and urge you to step down?"

"Not recently. At least he needs to spend a peaceful Christmas, and then he can unite with the directors who agree with him to collectively remove me as the headmaster." Dumbledore seemed to be talking about something irrelevant. He raised the sugar tea in his hand and made a toast gesture to Louis.

"Then we'll talk about it when you step down. I'm going home with Catherine to spend Christmas."

Before Louis left the principal's office, he took a handful of candy from the table.

The black and yellow packaging looks interesting, but I don’t know how it tastes.

Louis, who was walking on the road, took out a piece of red candy and put it in his mouth.

Then he spat it out again, grinning and retching, revealing a bitter face. Damn, I was fooled, this is not candy, it is clearly Bibi Multi-Flavor Beans...

The spicy Bibi Multi-Flavor Beans are probably the flavor of ghost pepper.

No wonder Old Deng had a mysterious smile on his face when he saw him taking the candy just now. It turned out that he was waiting for him here.

After a long time to relieve the spicy taste in his mouth, Louis returned to the office.

I have to admit that the Floo Network is indeed a great invention, at least Louis thinks so. Otherwise, he would have to rely on the Hogwarts Express to go home, and his life would be wasted on the train.

That train is said to be an express train, but in reality... its speed is not much different from the green K-series train I took in my previous life.

As soon as he came out of the fireplace, Louis was shocked by the festive atmosphere in the house - all kinds of Christmas decorations filled the entire living room, and even the temporary clothes hanging racks were turned into reindeer horns, on which were placed several Christmas hats and various Christmas-exclusive tassel decorations. Louis even found several small reindeer dolls on the piano in the corner.

"I have to admit, Little Moon." Louis looked at the living room and sighed: "My grandfather once said that women in this world are like birds, but I want to say that there are woodpeckers and magpies in this world, but your mother may be a wild wood grouse..."

Then he was stepped on by Catherine.

"Your mother is the grouse!" she said angrily.

Louis was laughing in his throat, but was suddenly pinched on the cheek from behind.

"Huh? What's going on? I seem to hear someone saying bad things about me?" Solanlian's voice sounded behind him.

Louis's little face was constantly rubbed and changed in her hands, and he begged for mercy incoherently: "Sister Lian... I was wrong..."

"I think you don't feel your mistake at all." Solanlian is also a seasoned man, how could she be fooled by a little scumbag? She looked at him unkindly, and her hands kept moving. Of course, it was more likely that Louis's smooth and tender face felt too good.

"I was really wrong, dear sister." Louis raised his head, enduring the ugly and rugged face that was rubbed, and looked at Solanlian with a very sincere and pitiful look.

Solanlian then hummed softly and let go of Louis, holding him in her arms again.

"Oh, I missed you guys."

Louis struggled feebly, shouting in a muffled voice: "Let me go...let me go...I'm suffocating..."

"Mom!" Catherine said angrily, walked over to pull Louis away, and was suffocated by her mother again.

Really, it's like a facehugger, you have to find a chance to stuff someone in there.

After finally pulling out the blushing Catherine, Louis looked at Solanlian a little embarrassedly.

"How are you doing lately, Sister Lian?"

"Not so good. A certain heartless guy seems to have forgotten the existence of a sister like me." Solanlian looked at Louis with an unhappy expression, her eyes slightly narrowed, as if she was looking at where Louis could easily start.

"Well, we are busy with school, right, Little Moon?" Louis quickly asked for help off the court.

Catherine knew that she couldn't turn her elbow outward, so she nodded repeatedly: "I testify that Xiaolu was indeed very busy..."

"Busy? Humph!" Solanlian said in a slightly cold voice: "Really? I see you are very happy every day..." Then she turned her head and looked Catherine up and down.

"Little Moon is really quick... You've completely taken advantage of Mr. Xiaolu."

Solanlian's voice was full of ridicule, which made Catherine feel very embarrassed.

"Mom...how can you say that!" Catherine was unwilling, and pulled Louis over and walked towards the fireplace: "Little Deer, let's go. We don't want to spend Christmas with this bad woman..."

"Let's go together." Louis obediently followed Catherine's movements and walked towards the fireplace.

Solanlian quickly took out her wand and closed the fireplace, and said to comfort her: "Okay, okay, look at your little moon, mommy was just joking."

"Huh, you're not joking!" Catherine looked at him unkindly.

"Okay, okay, it's okay that Mom was wrong. Can you really bear to let me spend Christmas alone at home?" When she said this, Solanlian's eyes turned red. She placed her fingers lightly on the corners of her eyes as if wiping them, and she really looked heartbroken.

"Hmph." Catherine folded her arms and snorted, looking very generous: "Okay, I'll forgive you this time."

Louis immediately changed the subject to give them a way out: "Uh, what are we having for dinner?"

Solanlian rolled her eyes at him and picked up the bag in her left hand: "Roasted spring chicken with lemon, sourdough toast with garlic mayonnaise, garlic butter shrimp, bacon-wrapped asparagus, and some grilled vegetables... Let me think about it, I should add some chicken thighs. The weather is so cold, and I should also prepare some cream of mushroom soup."

"As for the main course, of course it's the traditional roast lamb chops of the Volley family with small potatoes and caramelized carrots. In order to take care of Mr. Deer, I also prepared roast steak... Oh, by the way, I have a question for you. Which flavor do you prefer for the soufflé crust, blueberry or chocolate?"

"Chocolate!" they both answered in unison.

"Be patient, my darlings." Solanlian blinked her eyes and walked into the kitchen humming a song.

After a while, she leaned half of her body out of the kitchen.

"If you're hungry, you can have some caramel pudding, but don't eat too much, you can only have one portion!"

Louis suddenly perked up. He didn't like sweets in his previous life, but after reincarnating into England, he actually liked sweets more and more. He looked at Catherine happily and asked, "I want one, what about you?"

"I'll get you one. Please wait here." Catherine took off her coat and hung it on the antlers beside her. "I'll take a shower and then help my mother cook."

"Okay, after you finish washing, I have to wash too..." It would have been fine if he hadn't said it. As soon as he said it, Louis felt very uncomfortable, as if there was still some ash on his body that had not been cleaned off.

I have to admit that Solanlian's cooking skills are really amazing. Louis scooped the caramel pudding with a spoon and ate it all up without realizing it.

He walked to the kitchen, opened the door and asked, "Sister Lian, do you have any pudding? I haven't had enough."

"Don't eat anymore. We need to eat later." Solanlian held the rice spoon in one hand and put her other hand on her waist: "If you eat too much now, you won't have room in your stomach for the next delicious meal."

"Ah?" Louis was a little disappointed. The box of pudding had already whetted his appetite.

"How about I make you a margarita?" Solanlian suggested. "After that, you can lie down on the sofa and take a nap. How about that?"

“I’m not an adult yet, Sister Lian…” Louis’ face darkened.

"Oh, sorry, I forgot." Solanlian then remembered that Louis' age was not suitable for drinking.
