At noon that day, while eating in the auditorium.

"Ron, don't take it personally," George Weasley pushed a plate of potato goulash in front of him, "Those Slytherin guys aren't like that, there's no need to be angry with the Malfoy cubs......"

"If you're really angry, we'll find a chance to beat him up later!" Fred nodded in agreement.

"Ahem, George, Fred, can you please not say these things to my face?"

Percy Weasley coughed lightly and said helplessly, tapping the potato in front of Ron.

"Eat something first, even if you starve yourself to the table, you won't be able to teach Malfoy a lesson. ”

Ron spooned the potato beef stew into his plate and picked up the fork, but didn't eat it.

"Percy," he said suddenly with a serious tone, "can you tutor me, I'll follow you to the library every day from tomorrow, and I want to study hard - next year I want to try to win over the prefect." ”

The fork in Fred's hand clicked and fell.

And his twin brother also looked like a ghost, which might be a little more appropriate if it were Ginny, but it was put on this little brother who plays chess and reads Quidditch magazines all day long......

"Please, Ron, be sober. ”

Fred let out a strange cry and said with a strange expression, "It's enough to have a prefect in the family, it's too early for you to think about this, isn't it? Besides, I don't think prefects are a very good role-"

"That's right, I don't think you need to fight for such a thing-"

"Huh?"

"Oh-"

Before Fred and George could finish their sentences, two questions of a similar tone came from across the table.

Bill Weasley and Charlie Weasley stopped their knives and forks, glanced at Frey meaningfully, and quietly watched their living brother gradually react, and then slowly condensed into stone statues in their gaze.

Compared to Percy Weasley, Charlie and Bill's two older brothers obviously have a much higher status in the family.

It wasn't until this moment that the twin brothers suddenly realized that with the return of these two childhood shadows to school, the Weasleys had an overwhelming number of (former) school presidents, prefects, and Quidditch captains in Hogwarts.

Ignoring the two "Pippi Weasleys" next to him, Percy took a deep look at Ron.

"If you're really determined, start tonight. Percy said calmly.

Ron looked at Percy and nodded firmly.

After a slight pause, Percy thought for a moment and added an additional sentence.

"Also, don't expect me to help you much, after all, I haven't taken the new two classes either. ”

"In terms of magic courses, it mainly depends on your own hard work - and talent - as for the prefect, there are many things to consider, even I don't know what the specific criteria are, I can only say that I am as good as possible......"

"I know—"

Charlie Weasley said nonchalantly as he poured himself a glass of milk.

"Professor McGonagall's judging criteria are nothing more than three: grades, popularity, and Quidditch as a plus. The first two were on Ron's own, but if it was Quidditch - Ron, bring his broomstick to the pitch after school this afternoon. ”

As the legendary captain who led Gryffindor House to dominate the Hogwarts skies for three years, Charlie Weasley was fully confident that he would develop Ron into a player in his own right. In fact, with his influence in the team, even if you build a tactical system with Ron as the core, it is not impossible to do it when you think about it.

"Sounds interesting......"

Bill Weasley took a closer look at his brothers' expressions, smiled and nodded.

"George, Fred, you two are with Ron, and I'll oversee you—it's rare that there are probably never seven people in a family at the same time in Hogwarts history. ”

"Eh, we're going to be together, too?"

Fred froze, his neck turned stiffly and made a clicking sound.

The corners of George's mouth twitched, and with a hint of luck on his face, he asked cautiously and softly.

"Big brother, you mean to say that Fred and I will supervise Ron, right?"

"Nope. You two really need to make up for it! Magic is your greatest dependence in the future. ”

Bill Weasley shook his head unmoved, and said in a serious tone.

"Mom told me before I left that if you still take a bunch of passes this year, then my situation may be worse than yours, so I still have gifts for Christmas this year...... Sorry......"

"Bill, you're lying! Mom clearly said that you should find a girlfriend this year-"

At that moment, Ginny, who had just run into the auditorium and was sitting next to Percy, stuck out her tongue and debunked without hesitation.

Ever since Percy learned that Fred and George had found girlfriends, Mrs. Weasley, though she reprimanded her verbally from time to time, she secretly began to urge the other Weasley boys.

Especially Bill Weasley, who is the eldest brother in the family, is carefully interrogated by his mother almost every time he comes back.

"That's just one of my mother's requests, not a mandatory ......"

Bill's face froze, glared fiercely at his younger brothers, who were trying to hold back their laughter, and turned his head to look at the youngest sister in the family.

"Ginny, when today's training is over, you will be with your brothers!"

"Just learn it, I just want to learn some magic soon......"

Ginny Weasley said nonchalantly, snatching a glass of ice juice from Percy's hand.

"By the way, and Irina, can they come along? We still want to try to form a Quidditch team, but without broomsticks, instructors, and venues, this week's training program is completely undifficult, it's boring......"

"That Slytherin first-year girl?" Percy Weasley frowned with some concern.

"That girl isn't easy, I heard in class this morning, she's the new Shadow Prefect of Slytherin, a first-year student, it's not something ordinary people can do! ”

"So what, isn't that a good thing? I've already fought with her anyway, and I've lost badly. ”

Ignoring the suddenly wide-eyed brothers around her, Ginny said in a tone that seemed to be talking about what she had eaten in the afternoon.

"Irina is really good, and there is no one in the class who is her opponent except for Luna Lovegood. But in terms of brains, Ravenclaw's Danilova is slightly better - anyway, let's talk about it today, let's learn and progress together, no one is allowed to hide it, and finally at the end of the semester we will compete again. ”

"Fight, fight?!You fight in the first class of school in the morning?!"

Percy Weasley was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously raised his voice.

"Normal schedule, don't get too excited, Percy. ”

Before Percy could finish speaking, Ginny Weasley rolled her eyes, opened her bag, took out a training schedule, and handed it directly under his nose.

[Morning: Physical Training (Compulsory) + Free Fighting/Women's Self-Defense (Optional)]

[Afternoon: Pre-Kindergarten (Mathematics) + Pre-Kindergarten (Nature)]

"Bill and Charlie, they're right next to us, and they're a lot more intense than we are. ”

As she sliced the beef from her plate with a knife and fork, she casually explained, "Their opponents are a group of adult wizards from outside the school, and they can use their wands in the first lesson, although they lost badly in the morning. ”

"Almost, if it weren't for those guys dragging their feet!" Charlie retorted excitedly.

"How many times are you talking about? Anyway, I don't remember seeing anyone on the other side knocked down by you. Ginny said lightly.

"Not to mention us, even if we add the entire seventh year, we may not be a match for those guys - there's no shame in that, most of us are recent graduates, not Aurors who have specialized in magical combat for years. ”

Bill Weasley shook his head unimpressed, and generously acknowledged.

In fact, from the moment he saw those "sparring partners" on the field this morning, Bill Weasley knew that they had no chance of winning at all - some of them looked like breeders of the "Fantastic Beasts Society", but in fact they were the elite combat team of the WIB, even if it was an Auror of the Ministry of Magic, they would be wiped out if they were not more than five times the number.

There is no doubt that in order to give these "graduate students" who have returned to school a disadvantage, the eldest lady has made up her mind.

As a B-class researcher affiliated with SCP-Gringotts, Bill Weasley had no interest in confronting the fieldmen who practiced magic confrontation almost every day, and he cleverly preempted a wave at the beginning of each confrontation.

He prefers research to working on missions around the world.

......

At the same time, Hogwarts House is in the metropolitan area.

The lecture hall that had been used as a temporary lecture hall in the morning had long since been empty, and Douglas the fairy sat in a chair in the front row of the hall, tossing the gold coins while patiently waiting for the time to pass in his pocket watch.

If any Gringotts goblin were to see this, their first reaction would be whether it had fallen under a wizard's spell.

There are few things to keep a goblin director waiting in Gringotts Wizarding Bank, and as the CFO of Gringotts Wizarding Bank today, there are even fewer things in this world that are worth Douglas' time.

Unless it's—

Not far away, on the podium, a blue light flashed.

Bite.

Douglas took the gold coin in his hand, stood up and walked quickly to the front of the podium, and bent respectfully over it.

"Welcome to Hogwarts School City, Honorable 'Wizard' - Your Excellency Nicol Lemay, I am Gringotts Wizarding Bank - A-Class Director - Douglas, and you can ask me all your human and material needs from now on. ”

"What about Dumbledore?"

Nicol Lemay looked around, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said calmly.

"Also, don't call me 'magician' for the time being, I still have a few questions that I haven't figured out. ”

Whether it is Newt's invitation or Dumbledore's letter, in addition to those tempting vision blueprints, what makes Nick Lemay hesitate and be curious the most is the "mastermind" hidden behind the scenes and has not been revealed.

However, whenever he asked the question, Newt always had a strange look on his face that could not be explained.

According to Newt Scamander, even Nick Lemay can't reveal much information unless he agrees to take on the responsibility - and most of the information is difficult to describe in words, and if Nick Lemay is really interested, it may be more intuitive to go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to experience and talk to him for himself.

In fact, having only been on the pirate ship for less than a month, Newt has actually been a little confused until now.

Therefore, after a few hours of chatting with Newt Scamander, Nicol Lemay quickly made up his mind that whether he accepted the invitation or not, he would go to Hogwarts Castle and ask Dumbledore about it first.

To his surprise, the temporary portkey provided by Newt didn't end inside the school.

And the reception staff is not a wizard he imagined, but the head of the goblin from the Gringotts Wizarding Bank, which is quite worth savoring, this is really not a simple wizard organization.

If he remembered correctly, even the birth of the Philosopher's Stone in the first place failed to make the goblins choose to submit to the wizard.

Just as Nicol Lemay was thinking, the middle-aged goblin who was not far away cleared his throat.

"I'm sorry, it's lunchtime, so Professor Dumbledore may not be able to host you for the time being—"

Douglas looked at the pocket watch in his hand, smiled and bent over, and replied quickly.

"But in about an hour and twelve minutes, he'll be waiting for you in the principal's office with another old friend of yours, and he'll be answering any questions about the Foundation's activities tonight or the general framework that follow-up. ”

"Now, are you going to visit your lab area first, or do you want to take a look at the boat?"

"Boat? Oh, yes, I heard Newt say—"

Nick Lemay nodded thoughtfully, blinked with some curiosity, and said with a smile.

"It's the magic ship in Newt's mouth, which claims to represent the highest level of alchemy in the wizarding and non-magical realms today, and it is very likely that it will subvert my previous concept of the new era creation after reading it? ”

In his mind, Newt Scamander was not a wizard who was used to making a fuss.

Whether it's Beauxbatons' giant carriage, Durmstrong's magic ship, or the Hogwarts Express......

As a famous alchemist, Nicol Lemay was no stranger to these alchemy achievements converted from Muggle vehicles, and he was a little curious about what kind of magic ship would be evaluated like Newt.

"Okay, I see—"

The smile on Fairy Douglas's face grew a little thicker, and he nodded respectfully.

"But before you do that, I think you might need to look at some of the big picture, including some of the details of the magic ship you're about to board, or I'm afraid you might not be able to form a more concrete outline in your mind. ”
