v4 Chapter 71: Dress and Mojito

Hermione also changed her outfit today, which was very different from usual.

​​

The theme of Hogwarts tonight is ghost pirates. Even with the spooky elements in it, this title doesn't quite match Halloween. Unlike Hogwarts, the outfit Hermione wore was very Halloween.

​​

Hermione wore a little violet Gothic dress with black panels, like raven wings, that hung down at the base of her thighs, bordered by two gold hexagrams. She tied a light purple bow at the neckline, and there was a black cross under the bow - in the Halloween atmosphere, the cross did not have the holy feeling of the past, but gave people a sense of depravity.

​​

If you look closely, it is not difficult to find that the bow is hanging on a leather collar. This detail alone is enough to kill an innocent little boy like Tom.

​​

Under the leather collar, there are two black ropes passing through. The two cords that go around the neck are attached to the mesh black silk blouse by two gold star buttons to secure it.

​​

Hermione's top was a velvet bodysuit she had carefully selected. The bodysuit was flat and snug against the skin, which faithfully outlined her beautiful figure. While the front is covered tightly, there is a large deep V on the back that ends at the back waist, exposing the smooth and white back skin to the air.

​​

Under the dress, in a position that everyone couldn't see, Hermione chose a pair of V-shaped bottoms made of the same material as her top-tonight, she was the carefully prepared hunter.

​​

The dress was sleeveless, but it was impossible for Hermione to be bare with her white arms. For this, she chose two asymmetric black silk sleeves with delicate rose lace on the top. The left hand is connected to the blue and black half-palm glove, and the sleeve of the right hand stops abruptly at the back of the hand. Black nails are exposed. There is also an irregularly cut blue sleeve on the right sleeve, which makes the feeling of asymmetry stronger and maximizes the beauty of asymmetry.

​​

Tom's eyes fell on Hermione's slender legs. She seemed to want to implement the asymmetry to the end today, even the socks on her legs were asymmetrical! The right leg is a black stocking, which has not penetrated into the depth of the skirt, and the left leg is a black lace stocking, which is fixed by two suspender buckles. The end of the socks is tied with the white rose leg ring that Tom gave her. This is also the only white decoration on her dress today.

​​

Not only did she work on her clothes, but Hermione's hair was also carefully handled by her. The originally messy brown hair became soft and shiny, and was combed into two small double ponytails at the back of the head, tied together by the hair bands of the star and the bat figure. The rest of the long hair is let loose and reaches the back.

​​

Tom also noticed that Hermione was wearing a black eye patch on her left eye, revealing an air of middle school.

​​

"It's my honor to meet you here, beautiful lady." After the song was sung, Tom walked off the stage and came to Hermione's side. He took off his captain's hat and gave her a hat-off.

​​

Hermione's face flushed slightly, and she said with a bit of embarrassment: "Obviously, I have become your captive, my Mr. Pirate."

​​

Tom raised his eyebrows, is he playing role-playing? interesting!

​​

So he asked with a stern face: "Very good, then what do you know? I don't support idlers on my ship - if you don't know anything, I'll sell you!"

​​

Speaking of which, Tom glanced at Hermione without a trace and swallowed a mouthful of saliva—if someone really auctioned off the girl in front of him, he would be willing to buy her with gold that could fill the Hogwarts auditorium!

​​

"I'm good at bartending, Captain... Would you like to try it?" Hermione flipped her hand, and a wine bottle appeared in her hand.

Since the little wizards at Hogwarts are generally underage, there are basically no alcoholic beverages in the sight of the little wizards. The same is true for those wine barrels in the auditorium today. Although there are bursts of wine fragrance, they are all magic special effects.

​​

Dumbledore was heartbroken for the healthy growth of the little wizards.

​​

But what Hermione had was obviously a real guy, the kind that could be sentenced to confinement if Filch caught him.

​​

"It's a contraband." Tom narrowed his eyes. He didn't expect Hermione to take the initiative to violate the school rules.

​​

"So you're going to report me?" Hermione threw a somewhat jerky wink, "Or, do you want to punish me severely?"

​​

Tom looked away: "First, first bart--"

​​

Hermione tilted her head and laughed.

​​

"No problem~"

​​

She took a lime from a fruit saucer beside the long table, then cut it in half, and cut half of it into small pieces with a knife.

​​

"Today I am mixing a very classic Mojito cocktail for you. The most original Cuban Mojito cocktail is made of spearmint or mint and lemon, which are common on Cuban islands. The refreshing and long flavor of lime and mint Rum's fire complements it well." Hermione, as she prepared, introduced Tom to the mojito she was going to make.

​​

Hermione took a glass, put the chopped lime in it, and smashed it a few times with a pestle of the same type from Potions. Afterwards, she got a few mint plants out of nowhere and smeared it lightly on the mouth of the cup, adding a mint fragrance to the mouth of the cup.

​​

The used mint was not wasted either, and Hermione also stuffed it into the cup, along with a small cup of sugar cane syrup.

​​

"Mojito is a pirate's wine, as well as romantic and warm." Hermione opened the bottle and poured some golden rum into it.

​​

The liquor is mixed with syrup and lime juice The color becomes darker and the texture becomes thicker.

​​

Hermione took out her wand and pointed at the remaining half of the lime, and the tender and juicy lemon collapsed, and a dollop of lemon juice was drawn out and became part of the cocktail.

​​

"Unfortunately, it's not summer now." Hermione regretted that Mojito is the most suitable wine for summer, and it can give people a tropical beach feeling.

​​

But now it's almost winter...

​​

While sighing that the timing was wrong, Hermione added crushed ice and soda water to the wine glass.

​​

At this point, the glass of wine is nearly finished. With a flick of Hermione's wand, the various components of the cocktail blend together to create a unique flavor.

​​

During the stirring process, the gas in the soda water was excited, and the inside of the wine was covered with small bubbles.

​​

When the crushed ice dissolves, the wine is prepared.

​​

Hermione filled the glass with crushed ice and added a whipped mint as a garnish.

​​

In the end, she inserted two straws into it.

​​

"Hemingway and Marilyn Monroe both liked this wine. You should try it too." Hermione pushed the prepared cocktail in front of Tom and looked at him expectantly.
