Dobby's Gift

Because of this, Harry developed the habit of going out.

He also belatedly discovered the interesting changes to the castle.

The school was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations.

The Marble Staircase railings were covered with icicles that never melt.

On the twelve Christmas trees that are usually placed in the Great Hall,

Decorated with all sorts of little trinkets,

From the Winky holly berries,

To the live, golden owl that keeps calling.

The armor was enchanted; it would sing Christmas carols whenever someone passed by.

Listen to an empty helmet singing, "Oh, come, you devout people,"

It's really hilarious.

The armor only knew half of the lyrics.

The gatekeeper Filch, had to pull Peeves out of his armor several times.

Because Peeves is hiding inside.

When the armored warriors couldn't continue singing...

He then wrote some lyrics himself to fill in the blanks.

They were all very crude and offensive words.

This is truly a rare opportunity for Harry.

Because of his passivity.

He never had the chance to get up close to Peeves.

But he discovered that,

Peeves hid inside the armor.

When I didn't see him,

I can't sense him for the time being.

However, when he actually put his face close to the armor where Peeves was hiding...

Peeves would then belatedly let out a loud shout.

Then they ran away.

Then the armor clattered to the ground.

The armor could only clang and bounce on the stone floor, approaching its shattered body.

Then slowly put them together.

Ryan suspects that Harry Potter may have been infected by Ron.

I'm so unlucky.

Hogwarts encounters so many students with exceptional dancing skills.

They didn't even suspect anything.

She still dared to speak ill of him in her heart.

Before this, Harry was always able to connect these things.

This made Ryan feel depressed, something he hadn't felt in a long time.

It's like when you play a prank.

When you are discovered and will not be punished.

What you really want is for people to discover that this prank was related to you.

This further diminished Ryan's presence.

Then, the creature that had been subconsciously staying away from the dormitory because of Ryan's presence finally appeared.

"Dobby!" Harry fell off the bed.

On the four-poster bed in the corner, Ryan saw this scene and finally burst out laughing.

However, no one can hear it.

He continued to watch the scene unfold with great interest.

Harry's heart was pounding, and he stood up, supporting himself on the bed.

"Dobby so sorry, sir!" Dobby panic.

He wanted to help Harry up, but felt a little ashamed of himself.

Feeling unworthy to touch the body of the great Harry Potter, Dobby wished Harry Potter a Merry Christmas.

I also brought him a gift, sir!

Harry Potter said,

Dobby can come see him anytime, sir!

"Oh, it's Christmas today." Harry shook his head.

The first thing I saw when I opened my eyes Dobby, with green eyes the size of ping-pong balls, a nose as thin as a pencil, and bat ears.

He was then startled awake and fell off the bed, leaving him quite confused.

However, the gifts piled up at the foot of the bed confirmed this to him once again.

"It really is Christmas today." Harry pulled back the curtains around the four-poster bed, picked up his glasses from the table beside the bed, and put them on.

His shouts seemed to have no effect on waking anyone.

Ron, Neville, Anthony, Michael, and Terry were still fast asleep.

With his hair all messy, he looked at Dobby, "Is it really you?"

This doesn't mean he's still in a confused state.

But Dobby is now completely different.

The last time I saw Dobby was when I summoned him while asking Grindelwald.

But at that time, it was dressed very simply, just like the House-elf Diddy Hogwarts saw before, wearing a tea towel with Hogwarts emblem as clothing.

He even complained at the time that Dumbledore might not have paid Dobby.

In his memory, Dobby received one Galleons a week.

Dobby is dressed very strangely now.

He had a teapot-shaped heat pack on his head, covered with a bunch of colorful badges;

A horseshoe-patterned tie hung on his bare chest.

He was wearing something resembling children's soccer shorts on his lower body.

She was wearing two mismatched socks.

Harry recognized one of them as the black and green snakeskin sock Draco had given Dobby to set him free.

The other sock was covered in pink and orange stripes.

What Harry didn't know was that Dobby's change of clothes wasn't because of his complaints.

In fact, Dobby while.

He appeared before Riddle dressed like this.

Riddle even complained to Dumbledore Dobby House-elf status at the time.

You could say that if it weren't for Harry's comment last time...

Dobby will probably still come wearing a tea towel.

However, Dobby didn't notice that Harry was confused because of his clothes.

He just thought he had scared Harry.

This made him feel extremely guilty. "Bad Dobby! Bad Dobby! You've confused even Harry Potter! Dobby is Dobby."

He wanted to punish himself, but he was unable to do so because of the orders from his former masters Draco, Harry, Dumbledore, and others.

"I just woke up."

Okay, it's alright.

"From now on—from now on, just poke me, okay? Don't bend over and stare at me like that," Harry quickly replied.

He didn't know how to say it.

Did Dobby's outfit make him not recognize him at first glance?

He had no choice but to skip the topic of clothing.

Dobby, standing to the side, nodded repeatedly with tears in his eyes.

"Harry Potter allowed Dobby to touch his noble body!"

Europe!

How kind, noble, and benevolent!

Only the young Malfoy, who only has Dobby, can barely compare to this—"

"Okay," Harry quickly stopped him.

Dobby continued, he probably would get goosebumps. "Dobby, I also have a gift for you."

Dobby's attire inspired him.

He pulled a pair of brand-new socks from the bag under the bed, which Draco's father had given him and which had been enchanted with the Undetectable Extension Charm.

Dobby, however, was overjoyed.

But he hadn't forgotten his original purpose, and he asked tentatively in a shrill voice, "Could Dobby give his gift to Harry Potter?"

"Of course." Dobby handed Harry a small package after Harry nodded.

"Socks too?" Harry opened them and couldn't help but smile wryly.

Those were two socks of different colors.

The blue one has an eagle embroidered on it.

The bronze one is embroidered with a flying broom.

"Dobby knitted it himself, sir!" the House-elf said happily. "He bought the yarn with his own wages, sir!"

However, sir.

Were you scammed by the store?

Why did they give you two identical ones?

"Hmm, maybe." Harry smiled and nodded, putting on the socks Dobby handed him.

Dobby, your cooking is really good.

Dobby was Dobby happy that tears welled up in his eyes. He awkwardly wiped them away. "Dobby must go, sir. We're already in the kitchen preparing for the Christmas feast!"
