240. On the train
To Lockhart's surprise, McGoth was really just with the guy named Challus. Steven said a few words, although the other party seemed to be scared half to death by him, but it was good that he didn't make a move, and he was glad that he didn't have to make a choice.
"What did you say to him?" When he returned, he asked curiously, because they were being split aside as they spoke, so he didn't know what they were talking about.
"It's nothing, threaten him a few words, I said I know the mysterious man's men and Dumbledore, black and white." Magos replied lightly.
"A mysterious man's men?" Lockhart twitched his ass in horror.
"Professor Snape, don't you have a good relationship with him, and even be your assistant."
"It's him, of course, we, we're still in touch now." Lockhart breathed a sigh of relief.
Will Snape contact him? McGoth smiled and didn't poke at him, he had been very grateful for the help he had given him a lot lately.
At noon the next day, at the agreed time for Hermione and Ron, he arrived at the Leaky Cauldron on time.
"Over there, Mr. Will." As soon as he entered, Tom pointed to a corner and said to McGoss.
"Thank you very much, Tom." As he spoke, he walked briskly through the noisy crowd.
"Hi McGoss." Ron stood up and waved.
"Long time no see, Ron."
Hermione turned her head and smiled and nodded at him.
"And you, Hermione."
Once he was seated, Ron couldn't wait to start talking about his trip to Egypt. Magos hurriedly interrupted,
"Aren't you going to wait for Harry to come over and talk about it?"
"I think he wanted to say it a few more times." Hermione squinted and skimmed Ron.
Ron angrily took a long sip of his drink.
"I don't believe you don't talk about your trip to France."
"Coincidentally, I really don't want to talk about that." Hermione sneered.
Magos slapped the table speechlessly,
"I said, can you stop making a fuss as soon as we meet. As for Harry, did he get your invitation, by the way, he doesn't live at his uncle's house now, he lives in the Leaky Cauldron. ”
Ron looked at the stairs in surprise, "I don't think so, I thought he wouldn't be able to reply." Do you know what room he lives in, let's go look for him. ”
"Let's ask Tom, I don't think Harry is still in the room." Hermione said as she got up and walked to the counter.
"She seems to think she's smart." Ron said nonchalantly.
"Resign herself to fate, she's really smart." McGoth responded with a smile, "Especially compared to us." ”
Ron pulled his face, unhappy that McGoth didn't approve of him.
"Tom said he went to Diagon Alley early in the morning, let's go look for it, it should not be hard to find."
The three of them took a sip of the rest of their drink and walked briskly into Diagon Alley.
"Have you bought all your things?"
"I'll buy it all as soon as I get back."
"I'm still missing a crystal ball, there were too many people there yesterday, I'll stop by and buy one later."
"Alright, let's go to the bookstore and the Quidditch boutique first, Harry is probably there."
As a result, they walked down to buy the crystal ball with Hermione and didn't notice Harry.
"Where will he go?" Ron looked at the crowd on the street with some disappointment.
"Maybe in Quilona." Hermione said suddenly.
"We just didn't go in."
The three of them walked into the shop, and Quirrell told them that Harry had indeed been there, but it had been more than two hours.
"Maybe we'll see him back at the Leaky Cauldron, it's lunchtime." McGos suggested.
"Good idea, it's a good idea to go around and get back to square one." Ron grunted.
"Ron, Hermione, McGoss." Just then, Harry's voice came from not far away.
"Harry." Ron happily ran over to give him a hug. "How did you know we were here?"
"Tom said you're coming for me, so I'll follow the road." Harry watched his friends gather together and was happy like a child stealing candy.
Then came the time they talked to each other about the experience, with McGoth interjecting occasionally, mostly quietly savoring lunch.
Percy then walked past them with his head held high, and soon Fred and George ran over with a grin.
"Did you just see that glittering man?"
"It's the sparkle on your chest, George."
"I'm sorry, I was wrong, Fred." George grinned.
Percy, who hadn't gone far, turned back angrily.
"Looks like someone is getting angry."
"Why?"
"Because," said Fred, he learned Percy to take a few steps, and then the two of them ran away as fast as they could.
Percy felt a little embarrassed to run here, so he stopped next to McGoth and shook their hands one by one with a haughty expression, and left.
"What's wrong with him?" Hermione asked in a whisper as she pointed at Percy.
Ron said weakly,
"See that brand new silver badge pinned to his chest?"
"I didn't pay attention."
"There are two letters on it, H and B."
"Student Council President?" Hermione asked, surprised.
Ron nodded dejectedly.
"Lately, my mom has been whispering to me in my ear every day, what does it matter to me that he became the president of the student council, and that Fred and George are not prefects yet."
Cheerful times always make people feel that they fly by, and before they know it, they have reached the day of school. The Weasleys invited him to ride with them to the station in the Ministry of Magic, but he politely declined, he felt that it was better to take the car to his own safety, especially the fight between Percy and the twins, and to be honest, sometimes he looked at Percy's haughty face and he felt the urge to punch him.
McGoth didn't see the Weasleys' magic car that day, and he didn't know when they would arrive, so he left his parents alone pushing the box through the nine-and-three-quarters platform.
The noisy sound sounded instantly, and Magos was already immune to this, and calmly put Viadandy into the cage and handed it to the staff to follow the crowd slowly.
After getting in the car, he wanted to find a random seat to sit down, but Luna happened to see him waving at him.
He had no choice but to keep walking inside.
"Long time no see, Luna." McGoth walked over and greeted him with a smile, then saw Luna with a thick bundle of magazines in her hand.
"Is it the opposite, give me a copy." As he spoke, he was about to reach over and pull out a copy, Luna subconsciously took a step back, and he looked at it strangely.
Luna also noticed that her behavior was abnormal, but she replied calmly,
"The content here is similar to the last time, so I won't waste a copy for you, you sit here first, and I'll come over after I finish sending these magazines."
said that she ran out of the single room in a hurry, in fact, she didn't really want McGoth to think that she was the same as last year, unconditionally supporting her father's irresponsible remarks, she didn't know why she thought so, maybe it was what he said last year, maybe he saved her, maybe it was the reason for the Ravenclaw crown, maybe she really didn't want to waste it, she couldn't say what the specific reason was, maybe it was one of them, maybe both, maybe neither.
