Chapter 118: A Gift to Ginny
A week before leaving school, the results of the exams were finally announced.
Once again, William scored perfect marks in all subjects, ranking first in his age.
The man had to bow his head under the eaves, and Snape wanted to use the basilisk material even if he didn't want to...... This bit of face still has to be given.
Of course, William also had a heart, and he asked Dumbledore to help watch the summer vacation, so that the professor would not go crazy stealing materials, like stealing dragons.
During the time loop, William was in Snape's box and saw half of the frozen dragon corpse!
It's all William's property!
Hermione was undoubtedly the first in the first year, but she didn't get perfect marks in all subjects, and she was deducted 10 points for potions.
According to Professor Snape, the deduction was ten points, for fear of Hermione's pride.
Professor Snape is really a good professor who cares about his students, and he is sorry not to give him one of the "Ten Outstanding Young Men of the Wizarding World".
Cedric also still retains the number one place in the third grade.
From this point of view, William's circle of friends is really infested with school bullies, monopolizing the first place in most grades, and not giving others a way to live.
At the end of the term, everyone's luggage was put into the train, and they also left the school and took the Hogwarts Express home.
William, Cedric, Hermione, Cho, the twin brothers, Harry and Ron, a group of them occupy a compartment on their own.
Soon, the twin brothers left, and they were going to the toilet.
When I went to the toilet, I knew that the two of them were going to do bad things.
As the train was about to arrive at King's Cross Station, Cedric suddenly remembered something.
"William, during the summer vacation, you must come to my house as a guest." Cedric invited. "My dad kept nagging about it."
"Of course it's no problem, Qiu, are you going?" William returned to serving as a professional wingman.
Cedric secretly gave William a thumbs up, this brother is worth it!
"Yes, I've been staying at home this summer." Autumn quickly agreed.
Ron also began to invite Harry to his house, but Harry's eyes were always on Cho.
Hermione sat next to William, leaning against the window, reading a book. The girl borrowed a thick hardcover book from the library as a pastime for the trip.
Bobo Tea was lying by the window, tail sweeping around, deliberately disturbing Hermione.
The girl waved her wand, and a rope wrapped around her tail and tied a beautiful bow.
William watched Bobo Tea and Hermione play, smiled, and continued, "By the way, I'm going to buy a house. ”
"Buying a house?" Cedric was stunned.
"yes, buy a house." William laughed, "With the prize money from the Daily Prophet." ”
William memorized the winning numbers in the time loop, and after he left, he sent the owl to buy two sets of numbers.
So he won the 2nd and 3rd prizes, worth 744.3 Galleons.
This incident caused a great sensation at Hogwarts, and the students were envious and jealous.
William inadvertently caused a wave of lottery purchases for the Daily Prophet.
William is not short of money now, and the shop of Akali's Mystery Shop, earns a lot of Galleons.
But he wasn't prepared to use the money.
Capitalist reproduction is characterized by the expansion of reproduction, and William is ready to invest this money in the purchase of raw materials, further expanding the size of the store, and grabbing more profits.
Therefore, he did not have much liquidity at his disposal, and more than 700 Galleons were just used as spare money to buy a house.
Houses in the wizarding world are not as expensive as those in the Celestial Empire, they are very cheap, and they don't cost a few hundred Galleons.
After all, most wizards live in small villages far from the populace.
The most troublesome thing is the formalities, which need to be reported to the Ministry of Magic.
William was just a child and only qualified as an adult, and William's parents, who were Muggles, were also indiscriminate.
But Dumbledore could have done it easily.
Sometimes, there are people on it, and it's not a nuisance.
"Where are you going to buy it?" Cedric asked.
"I don't know, Professor Dumbledore suggested I buy it in Godric's Hollow."
Godric's Hollow is a village in the western counties of England that is famous for its wizarding villages, named after Godric Gryffindor.
It has been home to many illustrious wizarding families, including the famous magical historian Bathilda Basshat.
William continued: "Nicol suggested that I just build a house near his manor, and that I could be a neighbor with him. ”
Cho asked, "Then where do you want to buy it?" ”
William pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, I prefer to be neighbors with people I know well, how about the village of Otri St. Cachpole?" ”
"Great, yes!" Cedric was excited, "You can be our neighbor." ”
"I haven't thought about the specific house yet, Dumbledore will help." William smiled.
Harry looked at William enviously, he also wanted to have a house of his own outside, and he couldn't wait to leave the Desleys.
Harry remembered that he also had a large amount of gold in his coffers, and that perhaps he could apply to Dumbledore and buy a small house outside.
"By the way, Cedric, how's your wand made?" William asked again.
Cedric's previous wand for William was made of elm wood and a unicorn tail feather core, but it was often in poor contact.
Later, Cedric made a few more, and the technique was finally better, but it was still not powerful enough.
After the basilisk died, William gave the basilisk's horn to Cedric, hoping that he would use the basilisk's horn as the core of his wand to make a stronger wand.
Cedric shook his head and said regretfully: "No, I checked a lot of information, but I couldn't find a good match."
I'll go back and talk to Mr. Ollivander to see what kind of material is suitable. ”
"Okay." William nodded.
Soon, the train will arrive at the station.
"What about George and Fred?" Qiu wondered, "Didn't they say to go to the bathroom?" It's been half an hour, so it's not going to fall in there, is it? ”
At this moment, an explosion suddenly came from the carriage in the distance.
Boom!
After the incomparably clear explosion, even William and the others on the side of the carriage could feel the train vibrating, and then there was a tidal sound.
Percy ran over in a rage, but instead of opening the door to the train toilet immediately, he leaned vigilantly against the crack in the door, glanced inside, and then ducked away.
Under the mischief of the twins, he has developed an unreasonable intuition.
His wand was aimed at the toilet door from a distance, "Alajo Cave open!" ”
Syllable!
The door to the toilet opened.
A huge current of water suddenly rushed out, and Malfoy was swimming hard in the two-meter-deep pool.
There were also some yellow, unidentified foul-smelling objects floating in the current.
"Quick, help...... I! Malfoy plunged into the water again, "I won't...... Swim! ”
In fact, there was no need for the prefects to save it, and the water level was quickly lowered after the water rushed out.
Every student burst into laughter at the sight of Malfoy like this.
"How did they do it?" Qiu pinched his waist and asked with interest.
This thing must have been done by twins, there is no need to doubt it.
"I want to ...... The two of them must have stuffed the laborious fireworks into the salamander's mouth. William analyzed, holding his chin.
"When swallowed, salamanders spit out a barrage of explosives."
"Speaking of which, why would they do that?" Cedric wondered.
"Well...... William thought for a moment, "I remember that Fred seemed to have said something like, 'Give the toilet seat to his sister Ginny.'" ”
"This is probably the meeting gift that Fred and George prepared."
Several people laughed, the train slowly stopped, and platform 93/4 finally arrived.
