Fourth Year II (Thanks to Wandutinglan for the Support)
The Hogwarts Express traveled north, and the rain grew heavier. Su Yu turned off the lights in the room. Why turn on the lights on a rainy day?
The girls were so angry they could only light candles, but it had its own unique charm. Fa-jie flipped through a magazine, chatting with the other girls about its contents, while Ka-jie held the snacks she had just bought and fed Crookshanks little by little. That big silly cat had actually choked on some jerky earlier.
"What do you think the other two schools will be like in this year's Triwizard Tournament?" Ginny asked the others with a bit of curiosity as she bit off the head of the Chocolate Frog.
"You should ask Malfoy and the others. We really don't know anything about this; we've never inquired about these things." Ka-jie shrugged indifferently. Although she and Fa-jie were older, they genuinely didn't know anything about this either. "Perhaps Su Yu might know a little? After all, he knows a bit about everything. His teacher was also a student of Durmstrang, although he was expelled... um..."
"Don't think I know everything, okay? I don't know much about either of these schools. I only know that Beauxbatons is in the Pyrenees in southern France, and it's known for cultivating aristocratic manners, strict etiquette, and being quite skilled in elegant magic. Isolde told me that their school uniforms were light blue silk robes back then. Oh, and there's that Nico-Lemme, also from their school, the guy who created the Philosopher's Stone around Kurama's neck. I really don't know much about Durmstrang; I bet Malfoy and the others know more than I do."
"No wonder Isolde so elegant every day, I really want to be like her..." Ginny sighed with longing.
"I think it's better to focus on studying. I'll probably never be elegant in my life," Hermione replied casually as she flipped through <Standard Charms, Fourth Year>.
"You're all great, Ginny. Just be yourself. Like stockings, I like white ones, I like black ones, I like all kinds!" Su Yu lay on Daphne's lap without any regard for his image, and Daphne pinched him, making a hissing sound.
"Chiefs, you should change into your school uniforms. We're almost there. I know you don't want to wear them, but today is the first day of school, and you want to make a good impression on your new classmates, right?"
The door to the private room was opened a crack, and Callis peeked out, glanced around, and seeing nothing inappropriate, she spoke.
"But it's raining so hard outside, how are we going to get to the lobby? We feel like we're going to get soaked..."
"It's common knowledge that the United Kingdom never use umbrellas, but I'm from the East University, so I'll use one so I won't get wet." Su Yu looked at the group speechlessly. "With this much rain, don't you guys know how to use an umbrella?"
Finally, since not only the girls, but all the Slytherin students hadn't brought umbrellas, Su Yu had no choice but to open his Tenseigan and create a passage leading to the outside of the hall, allowing everyone to walk through without getting out of the car.
"I hate rainy days!" Malfoy complained, his robes still getting wet from the puddles on the ground.
"But the CEO likes it," Pansy chimed in, trying to dissuade him.
"Ahem... ahem... actually, I think I could like him too." Malfoy's expression quickly changed. "By the way, where's Theodore? I haven't seen him."
"He said he wanted to stay with Olivia in the rain, so he didn't come with us but went with the rest of the group."
"Oh, Merlin's beard, I hate the stench of love!"
"Careful!"
A red balloon filled with water fell from the sky and hit Callis precisely.
Blaise casually flicked his arm, and the balloon flew back to its original spot.
With a "pop," the balloon burst in Peeves, soaking him completely. Peeves, furious, yelled and screamed in the air.
"I'm not playing with you guys anymore! This isn't fun at all! I hate it!"
As he spoke, Peeves suddenly pulled out two water-filled balloons and threw them at the second-year Slytherin students, "A sneak attack!"
As expected, Peeves was bounced back and the balloon exploded all over him again.
"Peeves!" An enraged Professor McGonagall strode out of the hall. "Stop right now, immediately!"
However, because the ground was too slippery with water, Professor McGonagall slid down on one foot and grabbed Hermione by the neck, which helped her regain her balance and prevent her from falling.
"Sea Bull! Oh! I'm sorry, Miss Granger, I didn't mean to..."
"It's alright, Professor McGonagall..." Hermione's voice sounded just like a crowing rooster. She kept rubbing her throat and looked at Su Yu with Haha.
Su Yu used healing Ninjutsu to massage her, and she felt much better.
Peeves had already fled to the main group. He felt that the Slytherin students were not to be trifled with, so he went to bully students from other houses.
The Slytherin students could still hear Peeves laughing and shouting in the distance, "Take this, you little brat! And you, take this!"
I wonder which unlucky soul got hit by that Peeves.
Still feeling guilty, Professor McGonagall realized she couldn't catch Peeves anymore, so she could only welcome the Slytherin students into the hall.
The hall remained the same as always—solemn, magnificent, and grand, with candles waving all around. Four long tables were set up, and the Slytherin students slowly entered and sat down. Bloody Baron greeted everyone, while Hermione and Ginny sat in the Gryffindor seats behind Su Yu. The upper classroom seats were also full, and Isolde was giving Su Yu a flirtatious look.
A short while later, Professor McGonagall welcomed in the students from the other houses. They were all soaked to the bone, but it was clear that Ron and Harry were the most disheveled. It seemed they were the unlucky ones who had received special treatment from Peeves. Excited laughter erupted from the long table near Slytherin. It seemed Malfoy had made the right bet. He didn't understand Peeves, but he understood Harry and Ron all too well. Harry and Ron glared back fiercely.
However, Neville received praise from a group of lion cubs this time, who said he was really cool. Neville actually dodged Peeves ' water balloon attack and even hit the water balloon back! That was truly incredible.
Kurama was still the same as always, standing on the table and shouting that he was hungry and wanted to eat. The Egg Beater was still as considerate as ever, bringing out a cheesecake for Kurama before Dumbledore even announced that dinner was served. Crookshanks, who had become quite familiar with Kurama, also wanted to try some, but Kurama shoved him onto the table with a paw. Everything else could be given to him, but not the cheesecake! No, not the gold coins either! No, not even Su Yu!
This year's first-year students are really suffering. Su Yu felt like they were here to undergo a tribulation. It was raining so hard, and they had to row over by boat without any rain shelter. It was already dark, so how many of them were going to fall overboard?
