The Hogwarts Express let out a long whistle. The train started moving again, and the lights came back on.
"Allen, thank you! You saved me again. "Penello looked at Allen gratefully.
"Ah, it's nothing. Your Guardian Charm is really great!" Allen waved his hand.
"No, I wouldn't have been able to cast the Guardian Charm without you," Penello said sincerely. Obviously, she thought so.
Allen didn't say anything else. He felt that Penello wasn't just talking about him rushing out in time.
"Professor, Allen, I have to go check on the train and comfort the frightened wizard. I'll go first!" Penello swayed her beautiful curly hair and walked away with firm steps.
"Very responsible. She's a good girl!" Professor Lupin praised.
"Of course. She's the number one girl, the president of the Student Union." Allen was proud of Penello from the bottom of his heart.
When they returned to the bright compartment, Harry had already woken up and was sitting in his seat again.
However, the cold sweat on his forehead indicated that he wasn't in a good state.
Jenny was curled up in a corner, looking as bad as Harry.
She let out a small sob. Hermione went over and put her arm around her.
"Are you okay?" Allen asked. "Didn't you eat the chocolate I gave you?"
"Chocolate? Looks like you don't need me anymore. Allen did a good job. "Professor Lupin walked in and looked at Allen approvingly.
"Eat it," he said again. "It'll help. Forgive me, but I need to talk to the driver … "
After confirming that Harry and Jenny were fine, Professor Lupin walked past Allen and disappeared into the corridor.
"I didn't put poison in the chocolate!" Allen looked at them with a smile.
Harry looked much better after eating the chocolate.
"I don't understand … What happened just now?" Harry wiped the cold sweat off his face and asked.
"It's a Dementor, Harry!" Hermione looked at Harry worriedly. "Are you really okay?"
Everyone looked at Harry. The Dementors had affected Harry the most. He was the only one who had fainted!
Harry shook his head, and Ron told him what had just happened.
"That's scary," Neville said, his voice higher than usual. "Did you feel how cold it was when it came in?"
"I feel weird," Ron said, moving his shoulders uneasily. "It's like I can't be happy anymore …"
"But none of you … fell from your seats?" Harry said awkwardly.
"You're not mentally fragile, Harry!" Allen saw through Harry's thoughts at a glance. "The reason why we weren't hurt as badly as you was because we didn't experience what you did."
Harry looked thoughtful, and the cubicle was silent.
They didn't talk much for the rest of the journey.
Finally, the train stopped at Hogsmeade Station. Everyone got off the train, and the scene was chaotic.
The owl was hooting, the cat was meowing, and Neville's pet toad was croaking under his hat.
The cold air on the small platform was oppressive, and the bone-chilling rain poured down.
"Freshmen, this way!" A familiar voice shouted.
Hagrid's huge figure was at the other end of the platform, beckoning the panicked freshmen to cross the lake in the traditional way.
"Students of other grades, this way!" Percy and Penello organized the young wizards of other grades to walk to the other side of the platform.
Allen and Penello greeted each other from afar and were pushed to a rough muddy path outside.
There were at least a hundred carriages waiting for the rest of the students.
Between the shafts of the carriages stood some night fins.
They didn't have any flesh on their bodies, and their black fur clung tightly to their skeletons. Every bone was clearly visible.
Their heads were very similar to the heads of fire dragons, and their pupil-less eyes were white, staring fixedly.
Between their shoulder bones, there were wings. They were big, black, and tough, and looked like they belonged to giant bats.
These Night Qi did not move at all. They stood quietly in the storm, looking strange and inauspicious.
Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Neville climbed into one carriage.
Ginny and Alan got into the other car.
"Sorry, is there any room here?"
When Allen got into the dark carriage, he heard a dazed voice behind him.
A girl who was dripping wet poked her head in from outside the carriage.
She had unkempt, dirty, waist-length blond hair, very light eyebrows, and bulging eyes, which gave her an expression of constant surprise.
There was an obvious craziness in this girl's body.
Perhaps it was because she had put her wand behind her left ear for safety reasons, or because she was wearing a necklace made of corks from butter beer.
Allen guessed who she was. Crazy girl — Luna? Lovegood!
"Ah, Luna, of course!" Jenny pulled Luna into the carriage.
"Allen, is this Luna? Lovegood. Luna is at the same level as me, but she's in Ravenclaw. "Jenny introduced her to Allen.
"Extraordinary intelligence is a human's greatest wealth," Luna said in a sing-song voice.
"And this is —" Before Jenny could finish, Luna interrupted her.
"Allen? Harris, we all know him in Ravenclaw. "Luna said absentmindedly, her eyes fixed on Allen.
Allen smiled and nodded politely, at the same time pointing his wand at Luna to help her dry her wet robe and hair.
"Thank you!" Luna was still staring at Allen.
"I don't think anyone else will get on the carriage!" Allen smiled good-naturedly and closed the door.
The carriages were in a line, creaking and swaying along the road.
There was a faint smell of mildew and straw in the carriage.
"How strange. The carriage can actually move on its own. I wonder what kind of spell it is?" Jenny asked curiously.
"There are horses. Can't you see?" Luna said mildly.
Allen looked at Luna. Her big silver eyes reflected the night terran with bat wings.
"Really, Allen?" Jenny asked Allen in disbelief.
Seeing Allen nod, Jenny asked in panic, "Why can't I see it?"
"You're not crazy. Your head is as clear as mine," Luna said mildly as she stared at Jenny.
But Jenny's expression became even more complicated. Her head was as clear as Luna's. This wasn't good at all.
"It's the night terran pulling the carriage. Only those who have witnessed death can see it."
Allen looked at Jenny's undisguised and changing expression in amusement.
