As the time for the Hogwarts Express to depart approached, Neville finally arrived at the platform, panting heavily with his luggage. After waiting for a long time in the lobby, Hermione and the rest also arrived without a hitch, having met up with the Harris siblings.
Right now, the crimson steam locomotive of the Hogwarts Express was spewing out thick smoke, and the whistle was blown.
"We have to hurry, the train is leaving, and I have to maintain order on the train." As the female captain of Gryffindor, Hermione was a little anxious. She looked at Penello, who was wearing the Aura uniform of the Ministry of Magic. "Which section is Penello responsible for?"
"Allen's box." Penello glanced at Hermione impatiently, holding Emily's hand, and said coldly. Obviously, for this Aura, patrolling was just an excuse to board the Hogwarts Express.
Hermione, who was eager to board the train, was too lazy to argue with Penello. Seeing that there were many people in front of her, she didn't care about the etiquette anymore. She simply put her luggage into her pocket and walked in front with her head held high. Penello followed closely behind.
Luna took advantage of the two girls in front of her to quickly follow with Helena. In the rush, the feathers on the crazy girl's hat swayed left and right, which was very eye-catching.
Emily, who was left behind by Penello, looked at Luna's hat and couldn't help but whisper to Allen, "Allen, compared to the two of us, she's much more ruthless. Those old men lost all their chips … Red Nose Grimson also lost his hat … She really took it away in the end … She's a greedy predator …"
"Luna has always liked hats … Also, aren't you afraid that she will find out that you said bad things about her for Penello and then find out some other little secrets of yours?" Looking at Emily who covered her mouth, Allen, whose left eye had returned to normal, couldn't help but laugh. He reached out and ruffled his sister's hair. "Emily, don't be so petty. And don't be afraid, Luna is not that petty."
The group of people boarded the train and went straight to the semi-exclusive box at the back of the train. Penello just sat down and took out a tea set from his pocket to prepare tea when the engine's piston made a loud hissing sound. The train started moving.
Hermione hurriedly looked at herself in the mirror and raised her wand to tidy up her messy hair. Not long after sitting down, she got up and said, "I'm going to patrol around. I'll be back soon."
Allen waved at Hermione who left the box and then looked at the others with a regretful expression. He still hadn't had time to adapt to the change in his identity. "It's a pity that I'm no longer suitable for patrolling. If I had known, I would've learned from Percy and caught a few more troublemakers …"
Emily stuck her head out and looked at Hermione who had walked out of the box. After waiting for a while, she stood up from her seat and said, "I'm going to find the witch selling goods on the train. What do you want to eat? It's my treat! "
"No wonder you don't eat breakfast …" Allen waved at his sneaky sister to attract her attention. "Bring me a few chocolate frogs. The card is mine and the candy is yours. What do you want to eat?"
"Honey bee candy, sugar feather pen, and chocolate frogs ~" Emily counted with her fingers and listed the snacks on the train as if she was familiar with her family's treasures.
"Auntie, run faster when you go out. Miss Granger is now in the box next door." Helena stuck her head out of the cubicle wall and reminded her.
"Then I have to hurry …" Emily's heart skipped a beat. She opened the door of the box and suddenly, she was stunned. Hermione was already standing at the door of the box. She had just noticed Helena's head in the box next door.
There was an awkward and uneasy silence. Emily's fingers were twisted together. She avoided Hermione's gaze and went back to the box as if nothing had happened. She sat back in her seat listlessly. She lifted the corner of Slytherin's ancient wizard robe and leaned her head on Penello.
"Don't worry, Sweet Bear. You can secretly buy some when you get off the train and put them in your pocket." Allen comforted his sister and then took out a copy of today's "Singing Different Tune" to read.
"Sweet Bear, have some tea first." Penello poured a cup of tea for the angry Sweet Bear and suddenly frowned. Other than Helena and herself, Luna, Hermione, and Emily were all wearing similar ancient wizard robes. Her H94 uniform, which was more modern military style, did not fit in with them.
Penello also poured a cup of tea for Allen. After that, she tapped the table twice with her right hand. "By the way, Allen, since the Hogwarts have begun to use the armed forces of the Umbrella as guards, the uniforms of the armed forces of the Umbrella should be different from the uniforms of the Aura. Otherwise, it will be easy to be misunderstood."
"Then let's use the set in the Ravenclaw Temple. It's ready-made." Allen took a sip of tea and continued to look at the magazine.
Penello's eyes moved. Her purpose was not to wear the iconic color of Ravenclaw's magic robe. She looked at Allen's black Netheril robe and rolled her eyes. "It's not suitable if it's too similar to the temple. It's better to separate Harris from the blue of the temple. We can make some differences in the color and decoration. For example, we can change the blue to black …"
Hearing Penello's emphasis on the color, Allen was stunned for a moment. He looked up at Penello and instantly understood what Penello was thinking. "Okay, Penello. You're the leader of the Red Umbrella department. It's good that you're willing to take care of it …"
"Okay, I'll contact Madam Morkin when I get back." Penello smirked proudly.
"But speaking of clothing, there's a problem recently … Remus and the Tonks' wedding will be held before Albert and Hibiscus Chinensis. However, they said that they will only invite a few relatives and friends to the wedding … But it's not easy to determine the grandeur of their wedding. It's fine if they just hold it as simple as I predicted, but the prediction is not completely accurate and unchanged. It's not good for us to dress too grandly or too casually …" Allen returned the half-empty teacup to Penello so that she could drink more. "Maybe we should prepare two sets?"
Helena, who had materialized, placed her hands on the forehead of her mother who was lying on her legs. When she heard her father's words, she raised her head and asked with an indifferent expression, "Do I have to go too?"
"Of course, I'll bring you along …" Allen was happy to see his daughter who was usually uninterested in most things asking about the wedding. He realized that this meant that she was interested.
"Do I have to go too?" Luna's eyes were hazy as she fiddled with her radish earrings unconsciously.
"Of course! You have to go too … Lupin and the Tonks have a close relationship with Family Harris. How can I show that I value them if I don't go? "Penello crossed her legs. When she heard that Luna wanted to slack off again, she refuted without hesitation.
"Daisy and the Tonks have a good relationship!" Emily added, "The Tonks made fun of me by changing their mouths. I like her very much."
"Remus invited us out of personal friendship …" Allen nodded in agreement, "It's not easy for others to gain their trust. This is a very precious friendship … No matter what the stakes are, I'm very willing to participate in his wedding with the Tonks. Speaking of which, I still feel guilty to him many years ago …"
They chatted for a while more. As the train sped along, the business outside the window also flew backward quickly. The scenery outside the window was no longer barren. After passing through the winding rivers and dark green hills, neat fields and scattered farmsteads greeted them.
Luna fell asleep in her own seat. She liked to sleep on the train every time she woke up early on the day after school ended. After Allen finished reading the magazine, he raised his head and noticed that Helena's head had been looking at the scenery outside the window.
"Let's drive back the same way we did last year." Allen put away the magazine, "The train route is too simple. I've been bored at school for too long. We'll drive around before going back."
Upon hearing Allen's words, Helena turned to look at her father, "There's no need to go through so much trouble. Grandma is still waiting for us at home. Auntie said she'll take me shopping during the holidays."
"Daisy has been shopping for wedding dresses with the Tonks recently. She promised to take us along during the holidays." Emily straightened her body, "We can give the Tonks some suggestions. It'll be fun."
"It's alright, I was just about to go for a spin. I'll teleport back and tell my mother to bring the car over. If you guys want to go home early, you can teleport back first. The main thing is that Hogwarts has been a little stressful recently, so I need to relax a little." Alan stood up as he spoke, intending to leave the shadow of the carriage.
"I'll go back and drive. I'll tell Mrs. Harris. You can come find me when you're out of the station." Penello jumped up from his seat and disappeared from the carriage.
Not long after Penello left, the door of the carriage was pulled open with a ripping sound.
Hermione, who had just returned from her patrol, came in through the door with some snacks in her hands. She then placed the snacks on the table.
