Ask any student at Hogwarts, who doesn't know that the head of Slytherin is a hated guy, he always likes to disturb other people's good things.

If he caught him, he would reprimand him at least, or deduct points and confine him at worst. If that person happened to be Gryffindor, son of James Potter, godson of Sirius Black, savior Harry Potter, the evil grin on his face was completely irrepressible.

Unpopular people like him like to trouble popular people, in short, he is jealous.

He's not good for others and don't want to be good for others. Now he's starting to be jealous again. Although Gianluca is a Muggle, he has money. It's okay to be unlucky before. Now he's getting lucky, and girls notice him. , the old problems of the old bat reappeared, and he was creating unhappiness for the young people again.

This strange hobby is really puzzling.

Weird people choose Venice, a weird city, as their honeymoon destination. When the whole of Europe no longer believes in God because of the Black Death, this city that puts art and trade before faith is using various interfaith power against it.

Whether it is a Jewish doctor or a Christian doctor, they will be consulted about the relevant epidemic prevention measures. At the same time, some people pray that everyone can be freed from the disease as soon as possible.

"Salud" means wishing you good health, which is more worth having than happiness in the eyes of the Venetians.

The city is very noisy, and various stories are staged every day. There is a story about the famous scenic spot Rialto Bridge.

It was originally a wooden bridge, but it was burned down during the turmoil, and after it was restored, it was trampled down by the wedding team of the Duke of Ferrara. Later, Palladio, Sansovino and Michelangelo bid together to build the bridge. A new stone bridge.

The asking prices of these famous artists were very high. At that time, the Republic did not want to spend so much money to build a bridge. In the end, it was Anthony Daponte who won the bid. After winning the bid, the poisonous snake continued to exceed the budget and increase the price. The most important thing was that the stone components collapsed after being installed. The angry Venetian Council of Ten grabbed his collar and roared: "Even if you sell your soul to The devil must fix the bridge too!!”

Later, Anthony Daponte really sold his soul to the devil. It took four years to repair the Rialtore Bridge. It became the port of Venice. All kinds of goods were loaded and unloaded along the coast, and there were many warehouses along the coast. , and now there are also the old sites of the Turkish warehouse and the German warehouse.

Where there is a wharf, there are stevedores. At that time, Venetian stevedores were divided into the Castellani faction in the south city and the Nicolotti faction in the north city. With the Fist Bridge as the boundary, the two factions often fought in groups here.

Fighting in groups is to fight to the death. They fight lively there, and those who watch the excitement make bets. Later, it evolved into a game similar to free combat. Usually, the victory is won by knocking the opponent into the river. King Henry III of France liked to watch it very much.

This scene is often seen in oil paintings depicting the life of the Venetians. It was not until 1705 that someone stabbed someone to death with a knife that the competition was cancelled.

Rich people went to decorate luxurious casinos, played poker in evening dress, and boatmen were still secretly boxing.

The gondola boatmen also have their own conflicts. Tourists like to go to St. Mark's Square, so it is best to pick up passengers at the St. Mark's Square pier.

There is also a line to repair the boat, you come first, I will give you more money, and you have to jump in line to let the boss deal with it urgently, so the Nancheng Beicheng faction has not dispersed until now, and they fight every now and then in the bar where the boatman often goes.

There is usually practice here, and fighting is not as bloody as before. It is more like a sport, but no one wears protection.

Those who watch the excitement can place bets while drinking and eating cicheti, and Alessandro took them to this restaurant with an indoor pier for dinner.

Even if the great flood in 1966 did not submerge here, there are no tables in the bar, only a few chairs without backrests by the bar, and there is a ring in the open space. There are some sports equipment under the ring, and some people are practicing on the stage. , There was an old man with white beard sitting on a long wooden bench watching.

Then there is a pier, about the width of a bridge in Venice, where two boats are parked, and the door facing the river is tightly closed. The white ash on the wall has peeled off due to moisture, revealing the mottled wall. The lighting, the foul-smelling water reflecting the harsh light, is not so much a pier as a dueling arena.

"Have you ever been here?" Pomona asked Gianluca and Monica.

The two shook their heads together.

Alessandro and the bartender seemed to know each other very well, and they communicated quickly in Italian.

"I won." Pomona said, taking Severus's hand in the golden mask. "What's my prize?"

"I didn't bet with you, what prize do you want." He said with a relaxed smile, "I thought you only liked winning, not any prize."

Although there is no competition now, and no one is clamoring, the rhythm remaining here makes her blood boil.

The scene of men fighting is horrific. Women don't want to marry a violent man, fearing that he will use the woman's weak body as a punching bag for punching.

But the final duel is often a contest between men. Lockhart, who won the award for the brightest smile, was beaten so badly by Severus.

She prefers the metaphor of a sword and scabbard to an androgyny, and she would not have brought a group of children to the battlefield if she hadn't been forced by the situation.

The adults outside Hogwarts had already given up resistance. They recognized the reality that Voldemort was invincible, and only those children still had their last hope.

They are naive, they are willing to protect the school because they like it.

If it were the Muggle students who sang "The sun is shining, I'm going to blow up the school", they might be overjoyed when the school was bombed:

I am liberated! I can finally skip school! ! !

Pomona put her hand around his neck and kissed his mean lips through the mask. No one knows them here, no one calls them "professors", and no one is surprised that they do such adult things .

Minors are not allowed to enter the bar, and the three broomsticks allow minor wizards to enter, and not everyone has the same invisibility cloak as Harry.

"Ahem." Gianluca coughed hard.

Pomona's dazed head regained her senses and pushed the murderous old bat away.

"Let's go." Alessandro said, "I'll take them to play at night and take you home first."

"I don't need you to take me back," Monica said. "I grew up in Venice too!"

"I can take her back." Gianluca said, looking into Severus' eyes. "You can take the Dragon Night Tour."

"I doubt it." Severus smirked. "Which one of you two is keeping the other safe?"

It started again.

She couldn't help but rolled her eyes to the sky, why does he always like to make enemies everywhere.

"Come on!" Monica roared. "I can go home by myself."

Venice has become poorer, but law and order is much better than before, only thieves, no vicious crimes, such as the Rialtore Bridge, which was burned down under Pietro Grazia's tenure.

There is also the 22nd Doge, who was burned to death by the Venetians in the Doge's Palace. The achievements of Venetian sculptures are not inferior to oil paintings, because the rich and powerful in this city died frequently, some of them were short-lived, and some died. Due to political murders, the reconstruction of the Doge's Palace has hardly stopped.

In this city, there is the Fenice Opera House, which is said to have been burned twice in the flames, and this is the third time it has been rebuilt.

A phoenix will always rise from the ashes, if it can't then it's not a phoenix.

"Never mind the young man's love life." Pomona tugged at his arm as she walked toward the pier.

If it weren't for the need for a boatman to take them through this intricate waterway, she would only want to take a gondola for two.

I knew that I had persuaded the mermaids to be holding their boat in the Adriatic Sea, but they might not know the way to Venice, and they were easy to make Muggles fuss.

"This is my honeymoon!" After they both sat down on the boat, she began to negotiate with justice, "You can't ruin my date!"

Monica also turned and left at this time, and Gianluca immediately followed.

"You have the final say!" He said hastily, and then the masked and cloaked weirdo put her in his arms and leaned against the red velvet seat.

Not long after, Alisandro also jumped onto the boat, and the black gondola swayed for a while, and then slowly drove out to the exit with the sound of oars rattling.

At this time, the closed door opened by itself, as if opened by a ghost.

However, it is really just an automatic door for Muggles.

Muggle technology and wizard magic are really becoming more and more alike.

Venice at night becomes extraordinarily enchanting under the illumination of countless street lights. In the opera house not far away, the soprano should start singing. She only hopes that the cloak on his body is tightly covered so that no passer-by on the bridge can see him. What is his hand doing.

Visiting after a deep understanding of the city, it is estimated that it should be different from the feeling of being attracted by the superficial photos after just reading the introduction of the travel magazine.

Time has left little traces in this ancient city, as if it was still in the era of gamblers, spies, assassins and tryst-seeking "love saints" who haunted the streets wearing masks.

Venice is a place of debauchery, it allows hedonists to write the words "I have not lived in vain all my life", if you don't plan to save it and let it sink to the bottom of the water, then you must go once when you are alive, otherwise, There will be no chance in the future.
