Chapter 37: The Hogwarts Express (3)
For Ron, the journey back to school was tedious, but for others, it wasn't. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
As soon as Fred and George got in the car, they were caught by Lee Jordan, their best friend, because they were busy with their own business all the holiday and neglected their best friend. Just after the two made a few promises to finally satisfy Lee Jordan, three female members of the Gryffindor Quidditch team came to the door. There was no bargaining this time, and after slaughtering the Weasley twins, the three girls were quite happy when they left.
On the other hand, after Anthony told Holly about Luna's situation, Holly only responded lightly and said that he knew where Luna was, and he didn't need them to worry about it.
And the prefects, while carefully inspecting, did not forget to contact their classmates and friends, and could only say that they might not be able to sit down for a long time to chat, but they did not let them only watch others talk in the corridor.
The train moved slowly until night fell and the lights came on.
There was no moon in the sky, and through the rain-soaked windows, the silhouette of Hogwarts could already be seen in the distance.
After changing her clothes and helping Luna put a waterproof spell on her clothes, Holly's preparations were always simple, and when the train arrived, Holly was not the last to get off the train as slowly as before.
Holly, who was watching all the students, made sure that all the students were basically in the carriage and ready to leave, and then Holly and Erinka and Luna, who were waiting for her, got into the last few carriages.
"Oh?" Looking at the horse with bat wings in front of the carriage, Holly was still a little puzzled, after all, when he rode in the carriage a few years ago, he didn't see those things.
"Can you see that?" Luna asked, noticing Holly's hesitation.
"yes, it's the first time I've seen it, but it's an amazing feeling. Holly stepped forward slowly, taking a closer look at the strange creatures.
"Let's get in the car first. Erinka poked her head out of the carriage and said.
Nodding his head, he didn't say anything more.
There were only three people in the carriage, Holly, Erinka and Luna, and as for Ginny, no one thought she should be here, even if the "maid" on the train just now behaved well. Immediately enter the school, if you can be a little less flawed, you will have a little less flaws.
"I remember...... The teacher for the Magical Beasts Protection class hasn't changed, has he?" asked Holly, remembering Professor Graplan, who had just come to greet the first-year students.
"No...... It's still the stupid big guy who dares to show any strange things to the students. Erinka responded.
"Hmm...... Looks like Dumbledore has a backhand that we don't know about......"
"Inevitably...... But what's the use of that stupid big guy? I think he doesn't seem qualified to use a wand? Potter's case some time ago seems to have pulled up a dossier from decades ago. ”
"Oh, Cornelius' people are still Lucius's," Holly was a little curious about the dossier that Erinka had mentioned, but then added, "What's the use, a half-giant with Muggle blood...... Oh, could it be that Dumbledore really contacted the giants, but judging from the current situation, the old bee's movements don't seem to be progressing very well......"
"Needless to say, how could a pure-blood giant possibly have a crush on Dumbledore?"
The short distance was over in the swaying carriage, just ordinary chat, and Holly didn't want to talk about anything else, if there was really a need to discuss a topic that Dumbledore didn't know about, Holly would have already discussed it with Erinka in the compartment of the train.
The foyer was lit with torches, and the footsteps of the students echoed in it. The students got out of the carriage and had to enter the auditorium through the foyer to attend the opening banquet.
Four long tables, under the pitch-black ceiling, flaming candles floating in the air, illuminate the various ghosts floating in the air.
Before the finale of the fixed Harry Potter arrived, Holly and Erinka had already arrived at the Ravenclaw table that had been reserved for the two of them.
When Harry Potter walked into the hall, almost everyone was looking at him, and the buzzing discussion among the students disappeared in an instant, as if the center of everyone's discussion was the Savior who had just entered...... Thankfully, after Harry Potter got to his place, the conversation resumed, perhaps from the holiday experience, or from a recent gift.
"Oh, didn't expect it to be her?" Holly turned her gaze to the teacher's chair as she saw Harry sit in her seat.
Dumbledore sat in the middle as always, but the pink toad next to him also attracted people's attention.
Raising an eyebrow at Dumbledore, Holly didn't care if Dumbledore noticed his movements, but turned his head and chatted with Erinka.
"Didn't you receive a letter this morning?"
"This morning?" I go to the train station early every time school starts. Holly explained, "Looks like Connelly wasn't prepared to give Dumbledore any chance to turn around?"
"Almost, this year, I guess some of it is lively. ”
"It was best that Connelly had a little brain, and remembered to tell her that there were some people she couldn't mess with. Holly said in a somewhat cold tone.
"That's not necessarily ......," Erinka quipped, "don't forget that day...... I don't think Connelly could remember these things after he was inflated. ”
"That's none of our business......" Holly shrugged, looking hilarious. "What's more, there seems to be someone in the school who is more worthy of that toad to target. ”
"Yes, I'm looking forward to Dumbledore's expression when the time comes...... I don't know if this counts as shooting yourself in the foot?"
"Not necessarily, maybe the old bee got compensated somewhere else?" Holly was thinking of the Black family, who hadn't been to 12 Grimmauld Place since before Harry Potter's hearing, and the one the Weasley twins had taken...... Holly hasn't had a chance to connect with the two brothers yet.
As he pondered, the door to the hall was opened, and a long line of first-year students, led by McGonagall, walked in tremblingly.
Of course, McGonagall still had the worn-out Sorting Hat in her hand.
When she saw McGonagall, something suddenly occurred in Holly's head, and an idea came to her mind in the depths of her mind, but she couldn't catch that trace of thought......
