Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

News of the Gryffindor Potato Revolution did not reach Dumbledore's ears for the time being.

Not surprisingly, before Gryffindor College and Slytherin College are separated, the wise president should not be bothered by these trivial matters. After all, compared to the past, there is still an enthusiastic and kind Apolka. Professor Liss is responsible for coordinating student conflicts.

On the other side, Elena, who had finished a day's course, walked the spiral staircase on the west side of the castle to the entrance of the Ravenclaw common room.

Because of her "walking in four courtyards" status, in addition to two days of free choice on weekends, seven days a week, she has to spend at least one night in each college with rain and dew. The schedule is arranged in advance to prevent Elena took advantage of this loophole to stay away overnight.

According to this week’s itinerary, she should be resting with Luna in the Ravenclaw Girls’ Dormitory tonight.

"That witch is here..."

"Shhh, be careful."

"Finally I can go back to the dormitory, oooooo..."

When they arrived, there were sporadic whispers from the velvet sleeping bags in the surrounding corridors.

Most of the Ravenclaw girls are still reading in the library, and a small number of sleepy children go back to their sleeping bags and doze while waiting for the arrival of the witch who polluted the bronze eagle ring. The title of the bronze eagle ring every Wednesday is The most difficult, almost only Elena can answer.

Ignoring the strange whispers around chanting her own name, Elena raised her hand and knocked on the door.

The bronze eagle ring awoke, but did not make a bird cry, but said in a gentle, musical voice:

"Twenty-one boys and twenty-one girls took an exam. Each student only answered six questions at most. For every girl and boy, they solved at least one question. Then it must be There is a question, at least how many girls and how many boys have answered it?"

"Um...Elena, this is also your problem, right?"

After Luna thought for half a second, she chose to give up very decisively.

"Of course, such a logical topic full of beauty..."

Elena made a brazen boast, and cleared her throat and said seriously, "Well, this is actually an advanced application of the pigeon cage principle-for example, if you put ten pigeons in nine cages, there must be one cage. There are at least two pigeons in it. Isn't it simple? You try?"

"Uh--"

Luna nodded first, recalled the problem with Eagle Ring just now, and shook her head seriously.

"I want to go back to bed to sleep, and since the door hasn't opened yet, it means that Danilova has also answered wrongly—"

Unlike last year’s miserable sleeping floor, because of the environment in which Danilova lived since she was a child, her appearance at least reduced the time spent sleeping on the floor at Ravenclaw College from four days a week to two days a week-after all, she At any rate, she is also the daughter of a nuclear physicist in the former Soviet Union.

"Oh, well, I see." Elena shrugged.

"The answer is that there must be a question, and at least three girls and three boys have answered it."

"correct answer--"

Yinghuan replied softly, opening it back silently.

The empty Ravenclaw common room is a very large round room, more ethereal than any rest room Elena has been in at Hogwarts. There are elegant arched windows on the wall, with blue and bronze silk hanging.

If they have the opportunity to enter here during the day, they will have the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful distant mountains.

The ceiling is a semi-curved dome, with stars painted on the top, and stars on the dark blue floor below.

The tables, chairs, and bookshelves in the room are clean and tidy, and it seems that few people use them.

In the niche opposite the door stands a tall white marble statue—Roina Ravenclaw's 1:1 body sculpture.

"Now, there is one last thing left..."

Elena turned around, glanced over the faces of the girls who stopped outside the door, and raised the corners of her mouth.

"The ideas and methods of solving this problem are all hidden in the principle of the pigeon cage-you should remember what I said. The problems solved by me every Wednesday will enter the daily question bank. If you want to lie soft and comfortable The big bed in the dormitory, that may have to continue to work hard."

"Of course, you still have that option—"

Elena smiled and said softly, she raised her finger and pointed at the statue not far away.

"Under the witness of Ms. Ravenclaw, I crowned the crown with a approval rate of more than 50%...just a form."

It is difficult for most people to firmly and clearly know what they want, but they are often quite sure what they don't want.

In the Ravenclaw Academy, which advocates freedom, curiosity, and unrestrainedness, Elena is like the great witch who suddenly descends. While she completely disrupts the original undisciplined and literary atmosphere, she also makes most of Ravenclaw’s The wizards had a new pursuit and temporarily reached an alliance.

Few girls will surrender to another girl, especially when the other girl is still a very short-chested witch.

Reaping today's resentment from the eyes of the Ravenclaw "children", Elena turned around with satisfaction and walked towards the female dormitory above. Pranks, cold violence... and even spell attacks, these have no effect in the face of real "bad guys."

Since Elena broke into Ravenclaw College, those childish bullying and internal conflicts vanished instantly.

"so troublesome--"

Elena sighed and drew her wand to set a barrier beside the bed.

If it weren't for the request of Dumbledore and Professor Flitwick, she would not bother to pretend to be bad people in front of these girls every day.

Different from the other three academies, perhaps because there are too many smart people, Ravenclaw’s academy cohesion and centripetal force are almost invisible. When everyone pays too much attention to their own likes and dislikes, they It is difficult to truly tolerate those differences, let alone choose a part of stupidity and compromise, in exchange for the so-called collective, more ambitious group interests...unless the devil comes.

"You know, if you get too close with me, you won't have friends in the college for a long time."

In the dark, Elena flicked her fingers on Luna’s hair, "If their grievances grow, at some point... they might even target you... we can Pretending to break... This can deceive a lot of people, what do you think?"

"It doesn't make much sense—"

Luna turned over on the bed, avoided Elena's hand, and replied in a daze~www.readwn.com~Even without you, I would not make too many friends in the academy... I promised Hermione and Hannah that I would never leave you alone at Ravenclaw College—just as they promised—even acting alone..."

"Huh?" Elena was taken aback, smiled and shook her head.

These eleven or twelve-year-old little girls have secretly reached what "guard the team" agreement?

She is very grateful that she arrived at Hogwarts this year, not earlier or later, otherwise she might really become a lonely Majesty the Demon King. The loneliness of only one person on the chessboard is really too much. It is easy for her to confuse the difference between real and game.

Especially when... the future is completely in chaos...

Starting tomorrow, Hogwarts will enter a completely new era, completely unfamiliar-the magical world of Elena.
