Chapter 34: Professor McGonagall's Home Visit

They spent a lot of time at the owl shop, and finally Hermione picked out a white owl, the one Malfoy had just disliked, and she named the owl Rabbit Ears, and the fat lady gave them a bag of owl feed before they left.

After that, Canaan took Hermione to wander around other places in Diagon Alley, and seeing that it was almost noon, Hermione was reluctantly taken back by Canaan.

On the broomstick, Canaan was rushing back with Hermione, he didn't dare to fly too high, and when he encountered a tall building, he had to go around.

"Canaan, can we come here again in the next two days?" Hermione said, holding her rabbit ears. She thought there were too many interesting things in Diagon Alley, but she didn't stay long before coming back.

"I'll bring you back if I have time later. Canaan gave Hermione an accurate answer, it was much more interesting to take a little girl around Diagon Alley than to be alone.

"Canaan, you're so nice. Hermione smiled happily when she heard Canaan's words.

......

"Didn't you go to the library? Why did you bring an owl back? Jenny watched as Hermione carried a white owl, she didn't really like the furry creature.

"Hermione and I found an owl seller on the way back, uh, he said the owl tasted fantastic. In order to keep the owl from being eaten, Hermione and I decided to buy it and keep it as a pet. Canaan racked his brains to make up the story.

"Yes, Mom, that man is so disgusting, how can you eat owls so cute. I want to take it home and keep it, okay. Hermione stepped forward and took Jenny's hand and said coquettishly.

"You know that your dad and I don't like animals very much, and how can owls be kept as pets?" Jenny still frowned.

"Oh, Aunt Jenny, actually, Sindra is. Canaan motioned for Jenny to look over the couch.

I saw Sindra lying lazily on the sofa, her paws raised high, and her movements looked like a cat. Alice did the same and lay next to her.

"But Hermione, your dad and I are busy at work, and you have to go to school, and I'm afraid we won't have time to take care of it. ”

"Don't worry, Mom, rabbit ears are very smart, they don't need to be taken care of, right. She looked at the white owl in the cage.

"Coo!" Rabbit Ears looked at Hermione with her eyes wide open, not understanding what her master told her to do.

Hearing the cries of her kind, Sindra immediately stood up from the couch and flew to the cage, looking curiously at the rabbit ears.

"Goo-goo"

"Coo-coo" The two owls seemed to be talking to each other, one after the other.

"Alright, then let's leave it. Jenny said helplessly, seeing that Hermione liked pets so much, she couldn't bear to see her daughter sad.

"Thank you Mom, you're so nice. Hermione hugged Jenny tightly.

Canaan also smiled triumphantly beside her, and with Hermione the owl, she could talk to him often. He does like this little girl more and more, although Hermione is still young, but the development of the heroine is also a thing to look forward to.

For the next two days, Hermione was by Canaan's side, which also made Canaan experience the joy that he couldn't experience as a single dog in his previous life.

They had snuck away again in Diagon Alley, where Canaan had picked out a pen for Hermione that could always write as a gift before leaving. And Hermione also took the initiative to give Canaan a fragrant kiss before leaving, which made Canaan excited.

On Monday morning, Canaan washed up at the dining table and found a new letter.

"This was delivered by an owl in the morning, presumably your friend in the wizarding world, and there was a strange pattern on the envelope. Lincoln said as he ate the fritters.

"Strange patterns?"

After hearing Lincoln's words, Canaan picked up the envelope.

This is?

Letter from Hogwarts! Canaan found that the motif featured four animals, a lion, an eagle, a snake, and a badger.

But the time is not right, why write to me at this time. Canaan was a little confused.

He opened the envelope and saw that it was written

"Warning Letter:

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Dear Mr. Blaine, We regret to inform you that you have violated Section 34 of the Regulations for the Protection of Underage Wizards by collecting and using wands that have not been reported to the Ministry of Magic, but in view of your contribution to the wizarding world, you will be punished lightly and your home will be visited on April 1st.

Vice-Principal (Female)

Sincerely, Minerva McGonagall"

April 1st, today? So this is a warning letter?

It must have been that bastard of Schuster, Canaan thought viciously, and sure enough, he and I were born to play each other.

Luckily, Professor McGonagall had come to visit, and if it was Dumbledore, it would have been terrible. Thinking of this, he was relieved again.

"Dad, I think there might be a Hogwarts teacher coming to visit me today. Canaan looked at Lincoln who had just finished breakfast and was lying in a chair, and he felt that he still needed to talk to his parents in advance.

"Hogwarts, the school of witchcraft and wizardry, aren't you still in?" asked Lincoln, confused.

"Because they found out about my wand, there are rules that prohibit underage wizards from using magic outside of school. Canaan explained.

"So, what do you want us to do?"

"Try not to speak, and when you ask, you will say that you don't know, and leave everything to me. ”

"For the sake of your good performance in the first two days, I'll listen to you this time. However, I think you're hiding too much from me and your mother, and when this is over, it seems that you will have to explain it to us. Lincoln found that he didn't know much about the wizarding world, and he felt that he should learn more about the wizarding world in order to keep track of his son's movements.

"Well, when this time it's over, I'll tell you whatever you want to ask. Canaan agreed.

After that, Lincoln took a special leave of absence and stayed at home to wait for the arrival of the visiting teacher.

In the afternoon, the Canaan family was sitting on the sofa watching a TV series in a group, and footsteps came from outside the door.

"Ding Ding Ding"

Canaan stepped forward and opened the door, and saw that it was Professor McGonagall.

"Good afternoon, Professor McGonagall, come in and sit down. ”

"Good afternoon, Canaan. ”

"Mr. Blaine, Ms. Blaine, hello, I am a professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and today I am here to ask Canaan some questions on behalf of the school and impose relevant punishments. ”

"Hello, Professor McGonagall, I've heard Canaan talk about you, the most righteous professor at Hogwarts. Helen complimented.

"Professor McGonagall, it was only after we received the letter in the morning that we realized that the wizarding world has such strict control over wands, and you know that we were all Muggle-born, and you didn't expect this to be so serious. Lincoln stepped forward and said.

"Rest assured, Mr. Blaine, that we at Hogwarts will treat every student in our school fairly, even those who are not yet enrolled. ”
