Chapter 480 Dance Partner

"The Yule Ball is coming."

"Yeah, it's part of the tradition of the Triwizard Tournament."

"Minerva, I said the Yule Ball is coming."

"I know, Pomona, I just announced this in class today and Finnigan was freaking out when he knew he was going to dance with a partner."

Professor Flitwick said exactly what Professor Sprout meant: "Minerva, where is Pomona asking about your dance partner?"

Only then did Professor McGonagall react and said calmly: "There was an accident at Charles' company in China, and Jack rushed to deal with it."

Professor Sprout said as if he suddenly realized: "So you want to invite Smith."

Professor Flitwick became heartbroken: "Oh, I thought you would invite me. I have been quietly practicing dancing on stilts these days."

The professor's lounge suddenly burst into cheerful laughter.

Professor McGonagall ignored them and turned on the newcomer.

She asked Professor Delacour: "I wonder which young man would invite Fleur."

Professor Delacour just shrugged, as if he had no need to ask, and the other professors also laughed.

Professors are talking about it, and students in fourth grade and above are fretting about their dance partners.

Daphne immediately found Charles and planned to take advantage of his amnesia to issue an invitation before other girls.

"Hi, Charles." She said, trying to smile as brightly as possible, "Would you like to go to the Yule Ball with me?"

Charles said apologetically: "Sorry, I can't accept your invitation."

The same words were said in different places in the castle.

There were not many girls that Malfoy knew well, so he thought about it and came up with a candidate.

He appeared in front of Helen of Durmstrang, struck a pose that he thought was very handsome, put on a bright smile on his face and said: "Hello, can you come to the Yule Ball with me?"

Helen was stunned for a while, then shook her head and refused.

She smiled and said, "You can invite the other girls in Slytherin. I think the Greengrass's little daughter is pretty good, but be careful not to invite Pansy Parkinson."

Malfoy asked in confusion: "Why?"

Helen just smiled and didn't answer.

Her sister Helena, who was not far away, seemed to be very happy when she saw something. She pretended to admire the oil paintings on the corridor and tried her best to suppress her laughter.

Helen said goodbye to Malfoy and pulled Helena away.

When the two came to Durmstrang's ship, Helena burst into laughter and burst into tears.

Karkaroff came over and asked: "What's so funny?"

Helena told Karkaroff what happened just now.

Karkaroff was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he tried hard to hold back his laughter, but failed to hold it back.

After Karkaroff finished laughing, he said, "I'm going to tell him... well, business matters."

Helen took back her wand and asked, "Any news?"

Karkaroff said: "The action will take place during the Yule Ball. I will hold off Dumbledore, and one of you will invite Charles and make sure he is with us."

Helena immediately said: "It can't be me!"

Helen said helplessly: "It seems it can only be me."

Karkaroff nodded, and then went to his cabin to send a message through the Dark Mark.

A few minutes later, a bell rang loudly in a laboratory in Fallbottom Castle, and this time there were many people around.

Charles comes to the greenhouse at noon every day to sort out the data from the previous day.

He had just finished his work for the day when Helen appeared in front of him.

Outside the greenhouse, Fleur happened to come to see Charles, and Erica followed to join in the fun. She noticed that Helen closed the greenhouse door with her backhand and looked at each other. The woman's intuition told them that something was wrong.

"I bought it at Zuko's Joke Shop." Erica took out an eavesdropping ear and said, "Listen to what they are saying."

Fleur nodded, suddenly thought of something, and asked seriously: "You don't want to use it to eavesdrop on something else, do you?"

Erica replied: "The response is not to eavesdrop on you and Charles."

The eavesdropping ear became transparent and wormed its way into the greenhouse through the vent like a snake. Helen's voice soon came from the speaker at the other end.

Helen said: "Smith, you will be my partner in the Christmas ball."

The two people who were eavesdropping felt more and more that something was wrong. The tone of voice was not an invitation, but a command.

"I'm sorry," Charles said, "but I can't accept your invitation."

Helen said: "For your grandfather."

There was silence in the greenhouse for two minutes, and then Charles' voice sounded: "Okay."

Helen added: "Come to my dormitory to find me before the dance starts."

There is no mistake in every song, one post, one content, one 6 one, one book, one book, take a look!

Charles replied: "No problem."

Helen finally said: "I think you should know what not to say."

Charles said calmly: "I know."

After Helen finished speaking, she left the greenhouse without seeing Fleur and Erica hiding.

Erica was about to go to Charles when Fleur grabbed her and said, "Come with me."

The two came to Charles's alchemy laboratory, which was the safest place.

Fleur said to Erica: "Something might have happened to Charles's grandfather."

Erica nodded and said, "I think so. Someone kidnapped Mr. Smith and threatened Charles. What should we do?"

Fleur thought for a while and then said: "Charles just lost his memory and did not become a fool."

"He did not tell Professor Dumbledore, nor did he tell the Ministry of Magic, and there must be any considerations."

Elika said immediately: "The people of Helen and Kakarov are related to the kidnappers. If they know that Professor Dumbledore knows it, they will notify the kidnapper to tear the ticket!"

"I think there may be kidnappers in the British Ministry of Magic."

Furong nodded and thought about: "So Charles can only seek help other than Hogwarts and the British Ministry of Magic."

Elika immediately said, "His company!"

"Let's go to Farbaton Castle in the afternoon."

"By the way, the dress I attended the ball was still in the store, and I just took the excuse to get it back."

Furong said, "I'm going with you."

She asked Alica again: "What are they going to find Charles to do during the ball? Did you find a dance partner? Can you leave the venue in advance to follow them?"

"I need to jump away to dance, maybe I can't go for a while."

Alica shrugged and said, "No, no one dares to find me, afraid of becoming my supper."

"Hey, or let me be your dance partner, we will leave after dancing."

"But can you find Charles at that time?"

Furong thought for a while and thought, "No problem, I can find him at that time."

The two discussed some details, and then found an excuse to say an excuse to the principal, and then went to Hogmod.
