In addition to forgetfulness, Neville's problem is that he has too low self-esteem, because of his parents' affairs, Mrs. Longbottom's excessive expectations, and his own poor magical talents, he has always been suffering from gains and losses, self-doubt, and unaware of the courage hidden deep in his heart.

But over time, he will also slowly grow up.

Evan and Hermione didn't mention Neville's parents to anyone else, and if he could figure it out, he would tell everyone about it himself.

Ron recovered and was discharged from the hospital the next day, and Evan, Harry, and Hermione were also admitted to the Burrow that afternoon, and the Weasleys welcomed the three of them.

In the remaining days of the Christmas holiday, Evan had a great time.

It had been a long time since Sirius had taken him a long time like this, no conspiracy, no dark wizards, no vampires, no threat of death.

In the cosy and bright Burrow, he would work with everyone on holiday homework, play wizarding board games, clean up goblins in the backyard, or discuss Muggle machines with Mr. Weasley, and sneak around with Fred and George on new joke products.

On the first day of the new year, Sirius also took a few of them to watch a game between Pudermere United and the Wimbourne Hornets.

The game was played in the mountains, and it was planned to spend the night in the wilderness, but it took only twenty minutes for the Seekers of Pudmere United to catch the Golden Snitch.

Although the game was short, the process was very exciting.

Needless to say, the various difficult and high-level confrontations between Quidditch teams are naturally not much to say, and the performance of the fans of the two teams also opened the eyes of Evan and them.

The Wembourne Hornets fans all wore yellow and black wizard robes, and they had a wasp sewn on their chests and backs. Whenever a player scores a goal, they make a wavy motion and make a rhythmic buzzing sound, which looks extremely spectacular.

As the Pudermere United Seekers catch the Snitch to end the match, their team song "Boys, Bludger, Throw the Quaffle" rings throughout the Quidditch field. The cheerful tune resounded throughout the audience, and Evan and the others sang along.

For fans like Harry and Ron, the rush to end the game was obviously not enough fun.

Evan didn't care about that, he paid attention to the setting of the Quidditch field, the advertisements placed around it, and the memorabilia and badges of the two teams that the staff sold out. He was wondering if he could use this as a reference to a Hogwarts Quidditch match.

In addition to all of the above, Evan spends most of his time in the Diagon Alley shop, where everyone works together to clean up and renovate the shop.

Lupin, Sirius, and Mrs. Weasley were in charge of this matter, with Dobby, Kreacher, and Evan, who would go to Diagon Alley every morning after breakfast at the Burrow.

According to Aven's plan, the first floor of the store was mainly used to sell Weasley joke products.

Therefore, Fred and George were the most active, designing and decorating according to their own ideas. If it weren't for Mrs. Weasley's permission, the two of them would have stayed in the shop for the night.

Although Evan didn't do it himself, he wasn't idle.

He and Hermione wrote a lot of promotional articles, used two sections in Hogwarts for a week to promote the upcoming store, and even advertised in the Daily Prophet.

Thanks to everyone's efforts, the store opened on the last day of the Christmas holiday.

The first floor of the shop is filled with a wide variety of goods.

They were all made by Hogwarts wizards, and Aven had been in contact with his classmates through owls and house-elf Dobby in the past few days.

Of these, Fred and George made the largest number of joke products.

After the efforts of Evan and Mr. Weasley, Mrs. Weasley finally reluctantly agreed to let Fred and George continue to work on Weasley's magic tricks, provided that she checked them and did not interfere with their studies.

Mrs. Weasley quickly found help, and she and Hermione joined forces to put together a rigorous screening of the joke products that Fred and George were going to sell, and things like remote-controlled poop eggs, quick-acting truant candy, and canary cookies were all put on the ban list.

Most of the joke products in the store are mild, non-dangerous, and very hygienic.

Fred and George had complained to Evan about this more than once, saying it affected their prank inspiration.

However, they did not abandon the development of other hoax products that they themselves called "really valuable", but went underground.

Fred and George are ready to work hard to save money and then open a joke shop on their own.

In addition to the various things made by young wizards, in the corner of the first floor, Evan also opened up a small area to sell Muggle things, such as light bulbs, video cameras, game consoles, and other products that wizards rarely touch.

Evan didn't know how it would work, and he was ready to try his hand at sales.

These things are very practical and should be of interest to some people, and given what Evan knows about wizards, they don't go to the Muggle world to buy them.

On the first floor, there is a large wooden staircase that leads to the second and third floors of the shop, where the headquarters of Hogwarts Wizardry and Wizardry is mainly managed by Lupin, and is used as a place for the daily operation of the newspaper and the contact point for advertising.

To celebrate the store's opening, Evan also printed a special issue with the truth about the events of the year and Sirius's experience when he fled.

He even took inspiration from Lockhart to persuade Sirius to hold a book signing event in the store on the opening day to attract more popularity.

Although all preparations had been made, on the first day of opening, the number of customers waiting in line outside the store still caught Evan and the others off guard.

Many wizards gathered outside the shop, numbering in the thousands, and there were even many wizards from abroad, almost all of whom came for Sirius.

You know, the case of Sirius Black and Peter Pettigrew is the hottest topic in the wizarding world lately, especially since this matter is also related to Voldemort's secrets, and everyone is very interested.

Two days before the store opened, the Wizengamot finally handed down a verdict against Peter Pettigrew after a lengthy trial, and he will be imprisoned in Azkaban for life.

Evan heard from Mr. Weasley that most of the members of the Wizengamot had intended to kiss the Dementors in response to Peter Pettigrew's verdict, but there were many peaceful demonstrations outside, writing letters to the Ministry of Magic against such a cruel verdict, and they were very adamant.

With approval ratings already low, Fudge fears that this incident will cause unnecessary trouble, and he finally decides to adopt a more conservative verdict and keep Peter Pettigrew in Azkaban forever.

After all, there is a precedent for such a verdict, and after the fall of Voldemort, many evil dark wizards were also punished in this way.

No matter how much the outside world doubts, Fudge can shirk it.

It is said that after hearing this verdict, Peter Pettigrew knelt down in an instant, and like a child, he lay on the ground and cried loudly.

Not because of fear, but because of being too excited.

He didn't expect to escape death, and Azkaban, no matter how bad, was much better than losing his life or having his soul sucked out by the Dementors.

Even, he still has a trace of fantasy, fantasizing about the day Voldemort returns

For all the Death Eaters imprisoned in Azkaban, there is hope as long as they are alive! )
