King's Cross Station, 9?? On the platform, the rain beat down on the wizards' suitcases and their leader's umbrellas. Harry was dressed in a Muggle outfit. Accompanied by his godfather, Sirius, he crossed 9?? The wall of the platform and entered the platform.
The Hogwarts Express had already stopped there. The crimson steam locomotive was spewing out thick smoke. Compared to the bustling platform in the past, this year it could be said to be crowded. Some parents and children's outfits made Harry judge that they were obviously from abroad.
"This year, although many foreign pure-blood families scolded Allen's education philosophy, they privately decided to send their children to England to learn black magic … Let's go, Harry, I'll send you to the car." Sirius said as he took a few steps with Harry. They realized that the wizards in front of them seemed to be watching something.
Sirius used his power to open a path for himself and his godfather, squeezing through the crowd to let the father and son go in. Only then did they realize that a group of armed Aura and a group of patrolling Aura were confronting each other.
"Why are you stopping us?!"
"This is the arrangement made by Captain Albert. This year, you are not in charge of patrolling here. Get out of here."
"Scrimgeour is the Aura's office director!"
"He's a chicken. Does he want to … defy orders? Someone who you can't even pass through combat training? "
"I'll report it!"
"You patrolling Aura probably won't see the director of the Law Enforcement Department. Do you need me to introduce you?"
The patrolling Aura had finally seen the armed Aura put his hand on his wand and left 9?? Platform.
As if the start button had been pressed, the platform returned to its noisy and noisy state, like boiling water.
"Aura because of the Gringotte incident?" Harry tilted his head and looked at Sirius.
"Not all of them. The internal division of Aura itself is serious. Albert Harris is in charge of the armed Aura, and Rufus Scrimgeour is in charge of the patrolling Aura. But the Gringotte incident was the last straw. Now this kind of fight has begun to be put on the surface." Sirius looked a little angry. "It's really embarrassing to let these foreigners see this scene now …"
"Those sprites are hindering the Ministry of Magic from dealing with Lord Voldemort." Harry was particularly concerned about the mysterious person. "By the way, Sirius, Dumbledore, and the others, have they found Grigovic?"
"They found him, so they can't come back for the time being … It's a pity that I have to work at the Ministry of Magic …" Sirius replied and reacted. He stared at his godson. "Listen, Harry, I've told you many times to stop asking about this. You shouldn't care about this. Focus on your classes. Get a few more Os this year and go to college next year."
"Sirius, I saw Ron and the others!" Harry shouted. He didn't say that he didn't want to go to school. The surrounding armed Aura showed their professionalism in front of ordinary wizards and quickly maintained order. Although the platform was still noisy, everything seemed to be in order and was no longer as congested as before.
After reuniting with the Weasley family, amidst the hubbub of chatter and the clamor of heavy luggage being dragged, most of the children and parents couldn't wait to bid farewell to the person they had spent the entire summer with.
Harry helped Jenny with her luggage and climbed onto the motorcycle with Ron. The first few carriages were already filled with students. Some of the younger ones couldn't help but lean out of the windows to talk to their families, but most of them felt that they had regained their freedom and began to play around in their seats.
Because Harry wasn't the head of the new Iron Triangle, the Weasley siblings sent Harry to the Gryffindor colony first. In the carriage they chose, Seamus, Neville, and Freeg were already inside.
Only through the glass of the door did they notice Neville, who had a strange air about him. He was clutching a wooden box and sitting in a chair like his overgrown pet, Toad, in a trance. Flag seemed to be comforting him.
"What happened? What's wrong with Neville?" Harry opened the carriage door and walked in. "Did Neville go on an adventure again?"
"Just look at Toad's body this year and you'll know it can't run anymore … I bet after Neville lent it to Luna, it was Hermione who fed it." Seamus's sarcasm made the Toad croak in dissatisfaction.
"Neville tripped when he got on the carriage just now. The lid of the box was just flung off and the bottle cap was thrown out. I don't know if the mixture of ghostface moth chrysalis has seen light …" Freeg was also very depressed when he saw Neville's dejected look. "I don't know if it's still blood-red. You know, this thing can't see light."
Ron walked in as well. "Then why don't you open it and take a look?"
"For the sake of Ravenclaw's Raven, Ron, can't you use your brain?" Jenny snapped at her brother out of habit. "If we open it now, it doesn't matter if it happened or not."
"It's not a big deal! Besides, we can cover the windows and doors! " Ron was a little flushed and stubbornly tried to comfort Neville. "It won't affect the final transformation. At worst, we can spend some time making another bottle."
"The mandrake leaves have to be kept for a month … I still have to go to class …" Neville looked a lot more handsome this year because of puberty, but his temperament hadn't changed. The tip of his nose was starting to turn red.
"I had a hard time at the beginning too, but Neville, you should have mastered some skills in the last few days, right?" Harry patted Neville's shoulder. "Besides, it might not be broken at all."
"You have to press it under your tongue … Neville, look at me." Ron opened his mouth and showed his tongue nimbly to Neville. "Just press the leaves under it."
"I'm so envious that you've already succeeded." Allen seems to have taught you a fixed form, unlike you who can change at will. " Simo's words revealed a sense of extreme envy. "Ron, show us and open our eyes. Let us see and know what to do."
This opportunity to show off tickled Ron, and he patted his chest. "That's easy, I'll do it … Lavender isn't here? When the time comes, I'll show it to her alone. "
"You two idiots, stop it! Do you want to turn into a cow and squeeze Neville out of the carriage?! " Jenny shouted, and then flung her red hair that was messy due to anger behind her back. "Don't make a fuss. We're all wet. I have to go to the captain's carriage to change." Jenny took off her wet jacket in disgust, took out her wand to dry it, and stuffed the jacket into her suitcase.
"Harry, Jenny's captain has the temperament of a student council president …" Ron grumbled after Jenny left the carriage. He then followed suit and took off his wet clothes, and changed into this year's Hogwarts' new school uniform in the carriage.
"Sirius said that he didn't like the new uniform style, saying that it would damage the beautiful memories of the Hogwarts in his memory …" Harry pulled the hood of his robe behind him. "But when he accompanied me to pick up the uniform from Madam Morkin that day, he also ordered a few sets of this style for himself …"
"Speaking of which, Allen is really rich. He already gave us such a set in the ancient magic class last year …" Simo sighed. "Let's not talk about the protection, but it also comes with constant warmth and no iron. My mother definitely wouldn't give me so much money to buy this set of robes …"
"But she might consider adding protection to your clothes so that you won't always blow them up …" Ron sneered at Simo, and then felt a little smug. "I didn't attend that class, but Allen gave me a set for Christmas last year …"
"Today, all the Hogwarts students have changed into this set of robes, so this might be a compulsory class for this year's class." Harry said, and the sound of a trolley came from outside. "I'm going to buy some snacks. Is there anything you guys want to eat?"
"Harry, you decide. I have to go on patrol, so I won't eat … I have to save my stomach for the dinner party," Ron replied. "My mother doesn't make corned beef sandwiches now … Speaking of which, I kind of miss them."
Other than Ron, who was craving for snacks, everyone else in the room had the same reaction as Ron. Ever since Allen became the headmaster, the Hogwarts' meals had changed to something similar to ordering, which was very popular among the students.
Therefore, Ron and Harry came out of the compartment. One went left to the coach, and the other went right to buy snacks.
However, just as Harry approached the booth of the most popular woman on the train, he noticed that Emily Harris and Pency Parkinson were in the compartment next to it. They seemed to have just finished shopping.
Pency held a magic wand and cut the apple in front of Emily into pieces. After cutting it, she pushed the plate to Emily, who already had a lot of snacks in front of her. She picked up a green apple and took a big bite.
"Pency, for Luna's sake … You actually have to imitate Draco when you eat an apple …" Emily held a sugar feather pen in her hand. She seemed to feel that Pency's display of affection was too sweet, so she picked up a piece of apple with a fork. "Pency, hasn't your father listened to you yet? Or have you not started to sue … "
Suddenly, Emily stopped talking. She turned her head abruptly and looked at the door of the carriage. "Oh, good afternoon, Harry."
"Sorry, Emily, the door isn't closed … Uh, no, I mean I have something to ask you …" Harry scratched his messy black hair, trying to think of a nonexistent question. After a long while, he asked hesitantly, "Emily, have you seen Allen and the others?"
"Allen is preparing for the opening ceremony of the three schools. They didn't take the train." Emily picked up a snack on the table, tilted her head slightly, and said sweetly, "Want one?"
"No need … Then I'll go first." Harry waved his hand and took the opportunity to leave.
"Stupid, even if Allen is on the train … Isn't his compartment always at the back of the train? You're going in the wrong direction. " Pency did not give Harry a good look and secretly mocked him. She laughed when she saw Harry running away after closing the door. "These Gryffindor's eavesdropping skills have always been so bad …"
"Don't worry about them. Let's eat. Merope, you can come out now …" Emily took out the little snake monster with an eye patch from her robe and allowed it to move around. Then, she focused her attention on the snacks in front of her. If it wasn't for them, she wouldn't have spent so much effort to take the train.
