Chapter 93 Death Anniversary Party
This year's Halloween Eve banquet was extremely sumptuous!
The sky of the auditorium is as in previous years, with pumpkin lanterns glowing with golden light floating, and bats are circling across the auditorium in groups.
"I can sit three of them in this pumpkin..."
Jamini looked at the huge pumpkin lantern above her head and was a little dazzled. Hegel, who was passing by, squeezed the black beetle-like eyes at Jamini: "Do they look good? They are all carefully taken care of by me."
"You used the expansion spell?" Jamini laughed.
"Ahem... don't tell others..." Hagrid looked around nervously.
Jamini smiled sly, looking like a cunning little fox, rubbed his fingers: "I heard that you always find a bunch of strange gadgets in the forbidden forest, unicorn hair, eight-eyed giant spider venom, etc...."
"Oh--" Hager patted his forehead in annoyance: "Okay, damn it! You little vampire..."
Then he left happily.
Dumbledore booked a skeleton dance troupe for the dinner, but Jamini really didn't experience any beauty from the dance of these skeletons. Instead, the other students looked very excited.
The rich aroma of food hits the nose and Jamini enjoys an extremely hearty dinner.
Grilled steaks and pork chops, the thing that excited Jamini the most was foie gras. This thing is rare on the Hogwarts table. It seems that the house elves made it specially for Jamini, because there is only such a plate on the table in front of Jamini.
Soon, Jamini finally got full, and the dinner was less than halfway through.
"You won't go over now, are you?" Adria's face turned pale.
"You don't have to force me, I just go over and take a look. I will leave after a while." Jamini smiled.
"I'll be with you." Shirley stood up without hesitation.
"I'll go too!"
The three left the auditorium, walked through a long doorway, and walked towards the basement.
As soon as I entered the scope of the death anniversary party, a coolness quickly hit the three of them. The corridor in the basement was as decorated as the auditorium, and the difference was that these candles were all black, and the candles were light blue, which looked particularly weird.
Under the candle light, Jamini and the other two looked a little gloomy.
The more he walked towards the dinner, the lower the temperature became. Jamini swung his wand and cast a constant temperature spell. In an instant, heat simmered on his robes, which made the three of them feel much warmer.
zhi———
It seemed as if a thousand fingernails were scratching on the blackboard and the iron door, a strange sound came into the ears of the three of them.
"I guess...is this music?" Jamini covered his ears in surprise, but it had no effect. The sound stubbornly passed through his palm, causing him to get goosebumps.
"Yes, this is the music of the ghosts."
"I said... they were living people at least, why are they so different in taste?" Jamini looked puzzled.
"I heard that ghosts will become particularly negative when affected by death," Shirley said. "Although they will also feel happy, they will be subconsciously negative, and in the long run, their habits and personality will change certainly."
"Where is the Pipi ghost? I haven't seen how negative he is. Look at his hat, how bright it is..." Jamini asked in confusion.
"Pipi Ghost is a Sao Ling, not a ghost, he is not a real person." Shirley explained: "Sauipi Ghost is like Pipi Ghost, born in places with many children and students, and likes to make trouble. Most magic schools will have Sao Ling, not only Pipi Ghost."
"So he isn't a ghost?" Jamini suddenly realized: "I said why can he touch objects..."
"This is the characteristic of the sacred spirits. They are not considered ghosts. At most, they can only be regarded as a collection of certain emotions and thoughts."
The three of them said, turning a corner, and a large door appeared in front of them, with a black velvet curtain hanging on it.
The moment the curtain was opened, a chill that was even colder than before swept across the three of them again.
The huge underground classroom was filled with hundreds of milky white, translucent figures, all of which were ghosts!
Most of them swam around the crowded dance floor, dancing waltz with the terrible and trembling sounds made by more than a dozen music saws.
The band playing was sitting on the stage covered with black cloth, and thousands of black candles were lit in a chandelier above his head, emitting midnight blue light.
"call……"
He let out a long sigh, and Jamini's exhalation formed a white mist in front of him. At this moment, he felt as if he had walked into the ice library.
On one side of the basement is a long table covered with black velvet, large pieces of rotten meat are placed in a beautiful silver plate, pitch black, baked charred cakes piled in large trays, and a large amount of maggot-filled sheep belly, a piece of cheese covered with green hair.
The worst thing is that in the center of the long table is a huge grey cake with tar-shaped frosting on it:
Sir Nicholas de Minsey-Popington
Died on October 31, 1492
Although I had expected it, after seeing it with my own eyes, Jamini was still shown off by the Ghost Banquet!
"Ha~ Welcome, Jamini." Nick poked his head out of the ghost pile: "I'm so glad you were able to attend my death party. I've been accepted by the Headless Knights Club. I really thank you very much!"
"You are polite." Jamini laughed dryly. The surrounding environment made him very uncomfortable. If possible, he just wanted to leave here as soon as possible.
After chatting with Nick for a few words, Jamini moved away from the long table full of rotten things under the guise of wandering around. The three of them were about to leave quietly, but they met two thin figures.
"Harry, Ron?"
"Jamini?" Harry's eyes were a little astonishment, and then he smiled gloatingly: "Are you invited too?"
Jamini could see what he was thinking at a glance: "Yes, but I came here after dinner to see what I saw."
"It's great." Ron's face was bitter and trembled: "We haven't eaten yet, we're cold and hungry."
“Tonight the auditorium food was very rich, grilled steak, pork chop and so on…”
"Please stop talking." Harry looked painful: "We'd better leave quickly."
"Where is Hermione? Haven't you been with you?" Jaminie glanced behind the two of them, and she didn't see Hermione's furry little head.
"Yes, just now she heard Nick say you're coming later, and she ran away in panic." Ron shrugged: "By Draco's gift."
"Oh…"
Behind Jamini, Adria sneered, and Shirley, who was standing beside her, raised her chin arrogantly.
"Ah snee!" Harry and Ron sneeze together in the colder atmosphere.
