Tea Shop and Mystic Corridor?

On a weekend morning, bright sunlight streamed through the elegant windows into the Ravenclaw Common Room.

Luna and her roommates sat by the window, glancing out from time to time, their attention focused on a stone path.

The path was filled with students chatting amongst themselves, all with the common goal of reaching the nearby Hogsmeade.

Although they couldn't truly see the entirety of Hogsmeade through the windows of the Ravenclaw Tower, it didn't stop them from yearning for it and trying to imagine what this Pure-blood Wizard village would look like.

School is a place for learning. When learning takes up most of the time, things that are different from learning tend to attract students more easily. Hogsmeade is a good example.

Amica Miller reluctantly looked away, saying with a hint of resentment, "That Michael guy is so mean! Knowing we couldn't go, he brought up Hogsmeade last night!"

Emma Hitchins also looked away, gently shaking her head as she said, "Although we can visit Hogsmeade during summer vacation, it's a completely different experience than this..."

"Hogsmeade Village..." Melanina Burst sighed, then lowered her voice and said, "I ran into Prefect Krivat on my way back to the common room yesterday!"

"You look so mysterious..." Olivia Yaxley leaned closer curiously, "Have you discovered her secret?"

"It's not really a secret..." Melanina Parkinson continued in a low voice, "She went to Hogsmeade today, and it seems she's planning to go to Madam Puddifoot's Tea Shop."

"Madam Puddifoot's Tea Shop?" Amica Miller interjected excitedly. "Aki told me about it too! It's a lovely place!"

"It's always steaming inside... pink steam! And it smells nice! There are also lots of cute, chubby bow decorations inside!"

"There's magic on the ceiling too, with those cute flying angels hanging there. The angels have Winky hair, hold mini flower baskets, and sprinkle pink confetti on the guests."

"Oh...I see!" Olivia Yaxley exclaimed, covering her mouth and chuckling. "Madame Patif's Tea House...I know what Prefect Crevat was up to!"

"But I'm still a bit worried..." Melanina Parkinson shrugged. "Prefect Weasley doesn't seem to be a good fit for Madam Puddifoot's Tea Shop."

Upon hearing the word "Weasley Prefect," Luna shook her head slightly with a faint smile, despite Percy's warning to Fred and George not to spread the word.

However, Fred and George occasionally let slip that, and since Percy and Penelope were both Prefect, many students already knew about their relationship.

Emma Hitchins asked in bewilderment, "Actually, I don't understand why, if so many people already know, Prefect Weasley would still keep it a secret?"

Amica Miller tilted her head and thought for a moment, "I don't know... maybe it's to maintain a perfect image?"

"Anyway, I heard it from George. Weasley 'Prefect goal is to go to the Ministry of Magic, so he's very strict with himself..."

Melanina Parkinson chimed in, "With Weasley's Prefect, I think it should be fine, right?"

"It's the weekend, let's not talk about such boring things!" Olivia Yaxley interrupted, "Especially since it's about other people."

"Just like Amica said, Madam Puddifoot's Tea Shop feels like a wonderful place! When you sit down, it feels like lovely angels are flying overhead..."

Amica Miller added, "By the way! The teahouse has round tables covered with pretty lace tablecloths in lovely colors!"

"It is said that Madam Puddifoot collaborated with Honeydukes, so the various desserts sold in the teahouse are all very delicious, and the tea is also very good!"

"That would truly be a wonderful place..." Olivia Yaxley narrowed her eyes slightly, "Where I could pour myself a steaming cup of tea..."

"Then order two slices of chocolate cake, and hold a copy of Witch Weekly,' sharing the interesting stories inside—that would be a really great feeling..."

As Luna's roommates chattered excitedly around Madam Puddifoot's Tea Shop, many questions arose in her mind.

Hot tea, snacks, magazines, and conversation—these don't seem like difficult things to do, so why insist on going to Madam Puddifoot's Tea Shop?

She and Wizet often did this when they were in the Mystic Corridor;

She brought a few pastries from the Hogwarts Kitchen and brewed a pot of herbal tea. She held a copy of "The Quibbler" in her hands, while Wizet held a notebook.

Sometimes she reads articles from "The Quibbler," and sometimes Wizet shares new discoveries;

What impressed her recently was Wizet sharing her findings about the Boggart.

She felt that the Boggart was very similar to water, and that the Boggart could reflect people's fears just like water reflects their images.

Although Boggart do not have their own form, they can condense people's fears into concrete images, just as water freezes into ice.

"When we can go there, we must first visit Madam Puddifoot's Tea Shop ..." Amica Miller imagined. "Luna, let's go together then!"

"Okay!" Luna nodded and turned her head slightly to look out the window.

An owl suddenly appeared outside the window; it looked like Horned Owl. It circled twice in the air and then disappeared quietly, only being noticed by Luna.

Luna smiled knowingly, put away her textbooks and parchment scrolls, and said, "I need to go out for a bit..."

"Oh! Go ahead, go ahead!" Amica Miller nodded, not surprised at all.

Luna strode towards the door of the Common Room, her roommates' sighs echoing behind her. "I hope this school year ends quickly so we can go to Hogsmeade too!"

Luna continued looking out the window, where the adorable Horned Owl reappeared, guiding her downstairs and into a corridor where Wizet stood not far away.

"Sorry to keep you waiting!" Wizet said, pointing to the One-Eyed Witch Statue beside him and lowering his voice, "There's a secret passage here that can take you to Hogsmeade."

"Actually, you could go over openly." Luna smiled. "I'll just sneak over."

"Of course we'll go together!" Wizet smiled as well. "I feel a little strange if we don't take this secret passage!"

He raised his wand and tapped the statue's hunchback, "Dissendium!"

After a series of soft sounds, the statue's hunchback split in two, becoming a secret passage.

"Lumos Solem!" Wizet lit up her wand and held out her hand to Luna. "Now, let Guide Wizet... lead the way for you!"
