After all, no student can resist the temptation of holidays. If there is, it must be too much homework! While Harry and others were rejoicing about the upcoming Christmas, Wentworth returned to his dormitory with a letter.
This was the owl letter I received this morning while having dinner in the Hogwarts Great Hall, but there was no signature on the envelope.
Seeing this, Wentworth thought that this might be a letter sent to him by Rozier and others, so he did not open it on the spot, but chose to open it after returning to the dormitory.
As soon as he entered the dormitory and saw that there was no one around, Wentworth couldn't wait to open the letter in his hand.
There was only a thin piece of folded paper in the envelope. When I opened it, there was only one sentence on it:
I've been discovered, be careful!!!
Seeing these words, Wentworth felt his heart being lifted up all of a sudden.
Although there was no signature on the envelope, Wentworth recognized at a glance that the handwriting on the letter was from the same person who had left a message for him in the Grindelwald family's vault at Gringotts!
However, compared with the previous ones, the handwriting on this letter seemed a little sloppy. Obviously, the situation was already very urgent when the man who had never met his face wrote this letter!
Thinking of this, Wentworth's heart sank again, but he didn't know what to do at this moment. He just had an inexplicable sense of crisis sweeping over his body.
At this moment, Wentworth's door was pushed open from the outside, and Wentworth almost subconsciously drew out the wand in his arms and pointed it at the door.
"Hey! Wentworth, what are you doing!?"
However, when Wentworth saw who was coming, he breathed a sigh of relief and put away the wand in his hand, along with the letter in his hand.
The person who came was none other than Green.
Grindelwald walked into the dormitory, smiled and whispered to Wentworth: "Lord Grindelwald, are you going to clean up the mess? I haven't done anything to let you down!"
Hearing Green's words, Wentworth rolled his eyes in annoyance, and then said, "Let's talk business, why are you looking for me?"
Green said with a smile:
"Nothing, I just want to ask you whether you will go home or stay at school for Christmas this year. After all, I am the head of Hufflepuff, and this is my job!"
After hearing Green's words, Wentworth suddenly realized that Christmas was coming again. This reminded Wentworth of the scene last year when he, Green and Cedric took the Hogwarts special train home together.
Of course, there was also meeting Cassandra on the train and everything that happened over the Christmas holidays.
Thinking of this, Wentworth couldn't help but sigh: "Time flies!"
Green curled his lips and responded:
"Alright Lord Grindelwald, there are only two of us here. Who are you showing off your deep look to? Are we that kind of people?"
Hearing Green's words, Wentworth smiled awkwardly and said, "I will definitely go back this year..."
But Wentworth had just said half of his words when he suddenly remembered the letter that the cup had just received in his arms, and his heart suddenly moved.
Green looked at Wentworth curiously and said, "Wentworth, what's wrong with you?"
Hearing Wentworth's words, Green was stunned, but he didn't say much, just replied: "Got it!"
Then Green turned and left Wentworth's dormitory.
With Green's departure, Wentworth took out the letter he had received again and looked at it for a long time. Then, Wentworth picked up his pen and began to write to Rozier and others, telling them that he was not going back for Christmas.
Soon, the annual Christmas holiday at Hogwarts began. Wentworth waved goodbye to Green and Cedric at Hogsmeade station. As usual, they chose to go home and spend Christmas with their families.
After seeing Green and Cedric off, Wentworth was about to walk back when he turned around curiously and asked:
"Why don't you go home?"
Walking next to Wentworth was Cassandra.
Today, Cassandra was wearing a snow-white coat made of some unknown animal fur. Wentworth even secretly tried to pull off two strands of fur from the coat, but failed. Instead, he got a cold eye roll from Cassandra.
Hearing Wentworth's question, Cassandra said boredly, "You know, my father has been transferred to the British Ministry of Magic, the Floo Network Management Office. During Christmas, the number of people using the Floo Network will increase greatly, and there will be many wizards who will secretly connect their fireplaces to the Floo Network. So, my father will have to work overtime throughout Christmas, and I am too lazy to go back."
After hearing Cassandra's words, Wentworth nodded in understanding. He said casually, "Oh, so that's how it is. I thought you heard that I wasn't going back, so you stayed to accompany me!"
After hearing what Wentworth said, Cassandra said with disdain: "Tsk!"
Then he continued:
"Where I go on Christmas is none of your business!!"
Wentworth smiled and nodded, thinking: Hmm, that's it! But at this moment, Cassandra continued:
"I'm going to go to Hogsmeade for a stroll now. Is that any of your business?"
Having said that, Cassandra did not wait for Wentworth to react, and she changed her direction and walked towards Hogsmeade village.
Both of them are sophomores at Hogwarts, and according to the rules, neither of them is allowed to go to Hogsmeade village now.
However, seeing Cassandra already walking more than ten meters away, Wentworth hurriedly chased after her and said, "Cassandra, how could you violate school rules and go to Hogsmeade village without permission! Come back with me quickly!"
Although Wentworth said this, he never stopped and did not make any other moves. Instead, he followed Cassandra and walked towards Hogsmeade village together.
Seeing this, Cassandra looked at Wentworth with disdain, sneered, and said: "Heh, man..."
Wentworth: ??? Just like that, Cassandra and Wentworth walked into Hogsmeade together. Looking at the dazzling array of shops in front of them, although both of them were people who had seen the world, they still went shopping in each store with great interest.
Especially, neither of them is short of money!
