83. Myrtle and the Bathroom

On Halloween on November 1st, Hagrid invited Hermione and William to process the pumpkins together, to make "Jack Lantern" (pumpkin lanterns). In fact, this was Hagrid's work last night. Poor Hagrid patrolled around the castle for one night and has not rested yet. William and the others were happy to help, and the method of making the pumpkin is also very simple. Empty the pumpkin, then carve a smiling eyes and big mouth outside, then insert a candle into the melon, and light it in the evening.

Harry went to Quidditch Stadium at noon, and Wood's Owls came to find him. It seems that Quidditch is having something wrong again. In fact, this year's first game, this Saturday, was originally scheduled for Gryffindor against Slytherin, but it was changed to vs Hufflepuff. Wood was asking Harry to talk about this matter.

William and the others made Hagrid's pumpkin in the afternoon, and Hagrid planted them too big. Hermione's eyes and mouth were very exquisite; Ron made it, okay, pumpkin ghost, eyes are big and small, with a crooked mouth, and a look of displeasure, which reminds people of Felch. William, in fact, he and Ron made similar. Hermione said that they both were wasting so many pumpkins.

"Look at what you did. Hagrid had worked so hard to grow these pumpkins. Why don't you make them well?" Hermione held a carving knife and modified the pumpkin ghost that William had just made.

"Hermione has hundreds of pumpkins here, and we can't finish it as seriously as you do it until we can't finish it at night," said William.

"That's right, you carved less than 100 pieces this afternoon, and William and I made more than 200 pieces," said Ron.

"Why are there so many pumpkin lanterns in the castle?" William said depressedly

"Maybe Dumbledore wants to wrap Hogwarts into a big pumpkin," Ron said

They finally finished doing it, said goodbye to Hagrid and hurried back, and the dinner began in two hours.

The dinner was very rich, and the above the auditorium was filled with pumpkin lanterns made by Hermione. Hermione was very proud. William and Ron were both surprised where the pumpkin lanterns they made were going.

"My pumpkins," Hagrid looked at the terrifying pumpkin lanterns on the ground, hugged her head and said depressedly. These pumpkin lanterns were made by William and Ron. Dumbledore said that there was no need to add these "terrifying" atmospheres tonight, so William and Ron's pumpkin lanterns were sent to the kitchen and converted into pumpkin porridge.

"It's strange, when will I start drinking pumpkin porridge on Halloween?" said Malfoy, and William was drinking the porridge in confusion.

After Halloween, William began to deal with Slytherin's secret room.

"William, why do you let me drink so much water?" Hermione complained

"Drinking more water is good for health. Do you want to go to the bathroom?" William said with his eyes shining.

"What are you doing?" Hermione saw William's expression a little slutty

"Oh, nothing" William began to whistle

"I can't stand you anymore. I want to go to the bathroom." Hermione said and walked towards the bathroom on the second floor.

"Wait Hermione, where is Myrtle on?" William pulled Hermione and pulled Hermione

"It's on the first floor, what's wrong?" Hermione asked

"Let's go to the first floor" William pulled Hermione and walked to the first floor

"William, William, what's wrong with you?" Hermione felt that William was too abnormal today. She was pulled to the first floor girl's bathroom by William. "This is the territory of the crying Myrtle. She always cries inside, and no one uses the bathroom on the first floor," Hermione said.

"Hermione, go in and see if there is anyone?" William said

"No," Hermione pouted, she really didn't like Myrtle

"Do you want me to go into the girls' bathroom?" William said

"William, what did you say?" Hermione didn't know what William was thinking.

"I'll explain to you later, and you can see if there is anyone?"

Hermione went in helplessly, and soon she came out. "No one, Myrtle is inside."

"Let's go in," William said

"Ha?" Hermione blushed a little. "William, what do you think? This is the girl's bathroom."

"I know" William looked at Hermione and suddenly understood Hermione's thoughts. "Please Hermione, I'm here to find something."

William pulled Hermione into this dark and dull place. Under a large, stained and cracked mirror, there was a row of stone-built pools with peeling surfaces. The floor was wet, and several candle heads burned low on the brackets, emitting a dim light, illuminating the floor. The wooden doors of the single room were peeling off the paint and covered with scratches; the hinges of a door were disengaged and hung there staggeredly.

Myrtle's cry echoed in the bathroom. When someone came in, she immediately came out of the toilet. William saw that she was a ghost with glasses and straight hair.

"Oh~ It's a handsome guy. Are you here to find me?" Myrtle flew around William and Hermione.

"Oh~ you won't, because" Myrtle cried with his hands covering his face, "I'm dead."

William looked at Myrtle speechlessly.

"I want to ask how you died." William said. Myrtle's whole expression changed suddenly and she stopped crying. It seemed that no one had ever asked her such a question that made her feel honored.

"Oh, it's so scary," she said with relish.

"It happened here. I died in this toilet. I remember it very clearly. At that time, Olif Hongbei laughed at me wearing glasses like a four-eyed dog, and I hid here. I locked the door and cried inside. Suddenly I heard someone come in. What they said was funny. I thought it must be another language. But what annoyed me the most was that I heard a boy's voice saying that he was alive. So I opened the door, scolded him to walk away, and went to his own boy's toilet, and then-" Myrtle raised his chest very much, with a radiant face, "I'm dead."

"Then what have you seen, can you tell me?" William said softly

"Oh~ Of course, it's OK at any time." Myrtle rubbed towards William, and Hermione stood in front of William with disgust. Myrtle didn't move forward.

Myrtle lowered her voice mysteriously, "I only remember seeing a pair of scary yellow eyes. My whole body seemed to be caught, and then I floated away." She looked at Harry in a daze. "Later I came back. You know, I was determined to settle the score with Olif Hongtan. Oh, she regretted mocking me for wearing glasses."

"Where did you see those eyes?" Harry asked.

"It's almost there." Myrtle said, pointing to the pool in front of her vaguely.

William pulled Hermione over. The pool looked very normal. William checked it up and down, and even the water pipe below was not spared. Hermione watched from the side.

Then William saw: On the side of a copper faucet, there was a small snake engraved.

"This faucet never comes out of water." Myrtle said happily when he saw William trying to unscrew the faucet.

"I think we'll meet Myrtle again," William said with a smile, pulling Hermione out.

"Hermione, I miss me" William said with a blushing expression in half.

"Can you talk about it later? I'm going to the bathroom on the second floor." After that, he hurriedly walked towards the second floor.

Wait for a while

"Tell me, what happened just now?" Hermione said lightly
