The weather on Sunday was not very good, and a light drizzle began to fall outside the castle.
At seven o 'clock in the morning, the sky cast a little light.
Jon did not seem to be in a good mood. He was a little irritated when he woke up, because there had been too many things happening recently.
He cleaned himself up, came out of the bathroom, dressed neatly, and climbed into the common lounge.
At this time, not many people were awake. Jon came out at a bad time, and just happened to bump into Cedric and Hufflepuff's Prefect, Gabriel Truman, talking on the sofa in the common lounge.
"Hello senior, hello Prefect."
Jon greeted them and wanted to leave, but he was stopped by Cedric.
"Today is Sunday, what are you in a hurry to do? Is there something urgent? Maybe we can help. "
Being stopped by Cedric, Jon could not say that he was in a hurry, so he could only force a smile and shake his head.
"Nothing urgent, I just want to go to the library to read, there was a book I didn't finish yesterday."
This reason was not reasonable, and it was the image that Jon set for himself in the beginning, but it was not inappropriate for the two people in front of him who were not familiar with him.
"I wanted to talk to you yesterday, but senior Béla said that you haven't been looking for her recently, so she wants you to go find her."
"Oh?" Jon thought it was something else, so he just nodded. "Then I'll go now, so she won't blame me."
After saying this, he turned around and left, not even giving the two people a chance to talk.
"I told you, he's a little weird."
Cedric turned his head to look at the prefect and smiled helplessly.
Gabriel was also very surprised. He had been in Hufflepuff for so many years, but this was the first time he had seen such a student.
"But, it's normal." He shrugged and said, "In fact, he really does look like a student of Slythrin, and a pureblood Wizard. I don't know why he came to our academy."
"There must be a reason for the assignment. Anyway, he is a student of our academy. If he performs well, it won't hurt our academy."
…
Jon didn't care if Cedric and Gabriel were talking about him behind him. Even if he cared, he couldn't stop them from talking, right?
Their mouths were on their bodies, so they could say whatever they wanted.
Jon hadn't explored much about the castle, but he still knew the location of the Ravenclaw Rest House. He turned left and right and entered the Ravenclaw Tower. On a Sunday with bad weather, the Hogwarts students generally didn't feel like waking up. Jon didn't see many students along the way.
After climbing the stairs for a while, Jon appeared in front of the door of the Ravenclaw Common Room.
The eagle head on the bronze door knocker was sleeping with its eyes closed. Jon waited for a while but did not see any Ravenclaw students come out, so he knocked on the door knocker himself.
The problem with the Ravenclaw lounge shouldn't be too difficult, right?
Following Jon's movements, the eyes on the eagle's head slowly opened, and an ethereal female voice sounded from behind the door.
“whatcanyouswallowthatcanalsoswallowyou?”
(What is the thing that can be swallowed by you and can also swallow you?)
Jon rubbed his nose and thought for a while before replying, "It's water."
"Good answer."
The eagle head closed its eyes again, and the door behind it slowly opened.
Jon slowly walked into the large circular room. There were a few elegant arched windows on the walls of the Ravenclaw Rest House. Blue and bronze silk hung in the room, and there were tall bookshelves around it. The students could see the beautiful scenery outside from the windows — if today's rain could be considered a beautiful scenery.
The ceiling was decorated with stars, and the dark blue carpet below was also decorated with stars.
In the niche opposite the door was a white marble bust of Loynar Ravenclaw.
Jon did not have the intention of breaking into the female dormitory by bypassing the statue, as that would most likely result in him being beaten black and blue. He bowed slightly to the bust of Loynar, then sat on the sofa and started reading a book.
Ravenclaw Academy's private collection was not small. Although Jon had not been to the 'hidden place', the number of books there should be about the same as here. The only difference was that there were more books that students were forbidden to read.
The book Jon was holding was a notebook left behind by a former student of Ravenclaw. The first page contained some of the problems that the original owner encountered when practicing the 'Armor Spell'. Jon had recently started learning these defensive spells, so he had some experience.
He read with great interest until a girl came down from the dormitory.
"How did you come in?"
The girl was obviously wary of a student from Hufflepuff Academy who suddenly appeared in her dormitory. Her expression became even worse when she saw the notebook in Jon's hand.
"Oh, hello. I'm looking for someone, Béla Yang. She's a third-year student."
Jon put down the notebook in his hand and bowed slightly. After all, he came in without permission.
The girl had a hesitant expression, but she still turned around and knocked on the wall behind the statue. She then turned back and asked again, "How did you come in?"
"Oh, I came in by myself. The problem at the door is not that difficult."
The girl had an expression of disbelief as she turned around and walked into the corridor leading to the dormitory. Jon thought that he said something wrong.
After a while, a well-dressed Béla came out of the dormitory with a smile on her face.
"Oh, isn't this my dear cousin? Come here and let me see you. "
Jon had already taken a few steps back when he saw Béla's smile. There was definitely something wrong with Béla's smile. Either she was up to no good, or she was up to no good.
"Come on, if you have something to say, just say it. We're so familiar with each other, there's no need to be so polite."
Béla didn't fall for it.
"Bind your hands and feet."
She held the wand behind her back and waved it quickly. Before Jon could react, his hands and feet were already immobilized.
"This simplified version of the Petrification Spell is unique to Ravenclaw. Don't even think about breaking free."
Béla grabbed Jon's collar with one hand and waved the wand again to release Jon's feet, but the Binding Spell on her hands was not removed.
"It's been so long since school started, and you didn't even come to look for me. You didn't even wait for me to come back to deliver things. Boy, you've gotten bolder!"
Jon, who was being dragged by Béla to the dining hall, rolled his eyes and didn't want to say anything.
It was clearly some people who were always around handsome guys and didn't even remember his existence. What did he say?
He didn't complain about anything. He, Jon Smith, knew when to give and take!
