Taking advantage of the inattention of the police on the street, Hermione took out her wand and pointed it on the back of the bronze statue, and it came to life, lifting the hem of her skirt, and the rusty bronze became as soft as a tulle.

It was said that it was a drill skirt, and it was more of a special means of space transformation, Su Ming and Hermione just felt that there was a flower in front of them, and the two of them were standing on the street full of wizards.

It resembles a bustling bazaar, with roads at least three times wider than Diagon Alley, but with a much denser crowd of people, pointy hats filling the streets, shouting in French, and artists magically manipulating dozens of Muggle instruments at the same time, and a man playing on the side of the road.

"There is a replica of the statue on the Faustenburg Square in the 6th arrondissement, and that is the original passage, through which you can see the headquarters of the French Ministry of Magic."

Su Ming spoke to Hermione, who was curious, lest she patronize and stare at the magic clown on stilts on the side of the road, causing her to fall without looking at the road:

"However, during the Second World War, the magical and moving replica was removed by the Germans and given to the Führer, and the French wizards had to choose this genuine artifact in the third arrondissement after the war to transform it into a new key."

"Here...... It's spectacular. ”

Hermione felt dizzy, for there were many things she hadn't seen in England, and the French were a bit more lively than the British, and they showed a greater love of life.

For example, the magic circus that uses Animagus to attract customers on the street, the transformation cinema that uses magic to play Muggle movies, and the café that floats in mid-air, and so on.

People of all stripes roam the streets, handing out balloons or flowers to strangers, and wizards performing mime and performance art who make themselves colorful and glowing.

"The School of Magical Performing Arts is in Paris, not far from here, and if you're really interested in magical acting and didn't get an invitation to Hogwarts last year, I'm sure they'll send you an offer."

Su Ming smiled and touched Hermione's head, the little girl seemed to have regained the curiosity she had when she first entered the wizarding world, she was interested in everything on the side of the road.

Looking at the street bearded but tattered performance artists who used magic wands to conjure up small tricks, Hermione still shook her head, the gap between magical stars and Muggle movie stars was too great.

"It doesn't look like their graduates are doing very well."

Su Ming nodded, and took out a handful of silver so that Hermione could reward the street performer: "You can understand that you are from a Muggle family, if these famous schools at Hogwarts are equivalent to middle and high school education, and junior colleges are equivalent to secondary schools, the duration of education is only three years, and many of their students can't even do phantom transformation after graduation." ”

"Sounds a little pathetic......" Hermione pushed through the crowd and walked to the side of the street, put a few silver coins in the old mage's hat, and got a small magic flower turned from paper, she walked back to the professor, "I used to think wizards were like people I knew." ”

"Everyone's talents are different, their fates are different, and their lives are naturally different." Deathbell took a balloon from a stranger and gave it to Hermione to play with: "For you, the transfiguration that you can do in the first year may be the limit for that old mage." ”

"It's cruel! Don't be so upset! The little girl glared at him, and the good mood of the trip was ruined!

"Okay, but you have to know that even Hogwarts students still have to pass in their fifth year. LS, also known as the Ordinary Wizard Exam Level Test, has a total of 12 courses, and if you don't get a passing grade in the corresponding course, that is, an evaluation of A or above, then you can't take this course in the sixth or seventh grade. If you don't get a certificate in any of the courses, you're going to be withdrawn, that sounds fair, right? ”

The professor said it was fair that if they failed every class in fifth grade, Hogwarts students would end up on the streets, and if they were lucky, they might end up working as slaves in an automatic wand shop.

“......”

Hermione didn't answer, just 'Are you the devil?' He looked at the professor with such eyes.

"It's not a big deal to be expelled, you see Hagrid, he was expelled from the fourth grade, and he didn't eat fat and strong?" Su Ming touched her head and took her to the shop selling cat food on the street: "And the author of the book "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", Newt Scamander, who was also expelled from the fourth grade, found a child labor job in the Ministry of Magic with his family connections, and can earn 2 silver sike a week. ”

"You think I'm in less than fifth year at Hogwarts?" Hermione frowned, her most confident thing was her grades, she was in her first year class, she was all in class.

"Then we'll see." The teacher just smiled mysteriously, and he turned to the clerk in the store and changed into fluent French: "Please fill me with that packet of 'Cat Creature Fun Beans'." ”

"Bad professor, you're bad." Hermione kicked his shoe, but gradually his attention was drawn to the cat food, as the professor was holding it and looking at it all the time, with a look of amusement.

It's a pity that it's all in French, she can't read it, and she's tiptoeing a little anxious.

The professor paid and took her to a chair in the shop to sit down, pointing out to her the instructions on the back of the bag, word for word: "This is a French specialty, and cats and magical creatures love to eat multi-flavored beans." Don't you want to bring back some gifts for Crookhill in Hannah's foster care? It is written here that if the cat eats the catnip flavor, it is the jackpot, followed by the small dried fish flavor, canned fish flavor, smoked mouse flavor......"

"The worst?" Hermione's eyes widened.

A strange smile appeared on the physical education teacher's face, and his fingers slid directly to the end of a large string of words: "The worst thing is the smell of human rotten corpses, ha, the French have a much better sense of humor than the British." ”

Hermione took a deep breath and pursed her mouth into a line, feeling that she was carrying a weight that did not match her age:

"Shall we go straight to the French Ministry of Magic?"

............................................

‘Incanté， Envouté， Conjuré。 ’

The entrance to the headquarters of the French Ministry of Magic is located in the center of Place Ferstenberg, and the roots of trees around the fountain sprout from the ground, forming a birdcage elevator around the visitor, leading to the headquarters of the Ministry of Magic underground.

The three words engraved on the gate mean 'cast spells, chant spells, summon'.

It was founded in 1790 during the French Revolution, so its motto is very similar to the maxim of the French Muggle government at the time, 'Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité', and it is represented by the French tricolor and a woman wearing a Phrygian cap.

But even underground, the magic still makes it feel like it's floating in the sky, with transparent glass on all sides to see the blue sky, a large hall with fountains and music, and a faint scent of plants that can't be said to be in the air.

The wizards here are brightly dressed and have warm smiles on their faces, both men and women, and everyone is very personable.

Even when Hermione, who was unhappy, came here, her little expression relaxed, and she began to be full of good wishes for her trip to Beauxbatons.

"Alright, let's register our wands, and for the next semester, you'll be tasked with learning more than thirty foreign languages, learning wizarding etiquette, and making friends with every student. This is Beauxbatons' specialty, it recruits students all over Europe, originally I can teach you foreign languages, but after thinking about it, it is better to put you in an environment where multiple languages coexist......"

Before she could be happy a little longer, the professor told her the new bad news, and just as she was about to bargain, things were out of her control.

The professor knew that she wanted new beautiful clothes, and he took advantage of her weakness.
