No longer thinking about Grindelwald and Dumbledore's trip, Jon received a letter from the owls in the afternoon.
"What did you say?"
Jon naturally didn't have time to read the letter. He was busy revising his plan according to Cecatly's request.
If he couldn't use the transportation facilities set up by the Ministry of Magic, he would have to find a way to build a new network.
This was a huge project that required detailed arrangements.
Currently, Jon was the only one who could do this. His soul was strong enough to cover the entire Hogwarts, and he had enough understanding of the Hogwarts Academy. Coupled with the immunity left behind by the founder's bloodline, this allowed Jon's soul to explore many places in Hogwarts.
Although Cecatly was more detailed, she didn't have Jon's convenience. Therefore, under the cooperation of the two, Cecatly could only propose the key points, and Jon could implement the details.
As the saying went, it was less tiring for a man and a woman to work together. With the two of them working together, their efficiency was actually very high.
But this was indeed a huge project, and Chown couldn't get away from it for the time being. Normally, he could only leave it to Celeste to handle. He just had to take the time to ask.
"It's a letter from Mr. Lohat. It seems like he's inviting you to a banquet?"
"Banquet? Help me reply that I'm not free. "
Jon buried his head in front of the desk and wrote furiously. When it came to the proposal, he became serious. Unlike before, when he just casually flicked a few strokes and printed the words on the paper, he wrote very carefully on the paper. This time, he was even more meticulous. Relying on the fact that both he and Cecatly understood Chinese, he directly used Chinese Pinyin.
There were many advantages to using Pinyin. Firstly, even if someone else saw the proposal, they might not be able to tell that it was not English words. Secondly, he was very fast when he wrote, and he would often link the strokes together. When he wrote Pinyin, his writing speed would be slower, and he could write more clearly.
During this period of time, Cecatly had also started to learn Chinese again. The convenience of having a Chinese mother was evident in this point. Because she had been learning Chinese since she was young, her shortcomings were not very obvious. If it was writing, there might be some problems, but when it came to pinyin, there was no difficulty at all.
Therefore, after hearing Jon's words, she subconsciously started writing Pinyin on the paper.
After writing a few strokes, she realized that she had written wrongly. Just as she was about to change to another piece of paper, she suddenly heard Jon's voice.
"Wait a minute. Did the letter say what kind of banquet?"
Cecatly's pen tip paused and glanced at the letter.
"Death banquet?"
Cecatly could not help but laugh.
"Isn't that a little too old? The ghosts of Hogwarts still hold death banquets?"
"Of course. Hogwarts have kept many of their traditions," Jon replied smoothly. "But the death banquet... Let me think..."
He quickly remembered what it was. It should be the banquet of the almost headless Nick, but why would he be invited?
Furthermore, the banquet was supposed to be held during Halloween. Why would the invitation be sent now?
"Help me go back and ask Lohat why he's inviting me now. Also, what does this banquet have to do with me? Why do they want me to go? "
Cecatly quickly wrote down Jon's reply and had the owl hand it over.
"Although I don't know why they're inviting you, you can go, right?"
Cecatly was very interested. She used to live in the Muggle Society. Although she had seen a lot, she had never attended a ghost banquet.
"In this world, there are not many living people who can attend this kind of banquet. It must be very interesting."
The girl's voice sounded very excited. He did not know what was so exciting about this kind of thing.
He really did not understand. What was there to celebrate on the day of death? It sounded rather stuffy.
However … Jon glanced at the time … It was already the first weekend of October?
"The death anniversary banquet of the specter and the school's Halloween banquet are conflicting. If I want to attend the school's Halloween banquet, I can't attend the death anniversary banquet. If I attend the death anniversary banquet, with my relationship with Gryffindor, it seems a little inappropriate for me to appear there but not at the school's banquet … Most importantly, I don't want to attend either banquet."
He had never interacted with Gryffindor, whether as a student or a ghost. If he had to say, it was Naughty Ghost who had been driving Nick to help him collect information about Harry Potter. However, that was Naughty Ghost's business and had nothing to do with Jon.
Besides, there was an old saying in Huaxia: "One who is unaccountably solicitous is hiding evil intentions."
"I'm not familiar with them. Suddenly inviting me to attend a ghost banquet, it doesn't sound like they have no ulterior motive."
"You're right, but how many people in school want to harm you?"
"Hogwarts is never a peaceful place." Jon recalled his first experience of killing and shook his head. "Anyway, I probably won't go. Besides, there's nothing interesting about the banquet."
After thinking for a while, he added, "If you want to take a look, we can go there secretly and take a look in the dark. There's no need to appear in front of others. Haven't you always wanted to take a look at the castle? This is a good opportunity. Oh yes, how's your learning of magic? "
"Don't worry. Although I haven't mastered the offensive magic, I've learned the life-saving magic very well. I've also mastered the Illusory Body Spell. It's completely possible for me not to be discovered. I'm very confident about that."
That's fine.
Jon nodded and took a piece of paper from the side. He wrote something on it and folded it.
This was not a letter for Lohat.
It was for Naughty Ghost.
He snapped his fingers, and the fire in the fireplace suddenly flared up. After a few sparks, it died down.
This was a signal to inform Naughty Ghost to come over.
"Let's wait for Naughty Ghost to come over and ask him again. Anyway, we don't have anything important to do recently. Teacher Grindelwald and Principal Dumbledore will only be back in a few days. We still have enough things to do."
