The day after the school year feast ended, it was also the time when Hogwarts officially entered the holidays.

Kyle and the others arrive at the platform, ready to board the return train.

Raton stood on his shoulder like a bully, glancing at any passing owl.

I don't know if it's because Kyle always feeds him dragon liver every once in a while, and Ratton is a little bigger, looking like a little monster.

This also causes Kyle to always be in a hurry wherever he passes, as any owl he stares at will let out a shrill scream and flutter back and forth in its cage.

Even Aki's owl was not spared.

"Hey, Kyle, can't you just take care of it?" Cho soothed the owl in his cage and said to Kyle, "Thea has been frightened three times along the way. ”

"I'm sorry, but Raton doesn't like to be in a cage."

Kyle flicked his shoulder, and the giant owl immediately spread its wings and flew in the direction of the train.

In order to take care of some people, this time they did not take the more spacious and comfortable prefect box, but chose an ordinary car.

As soon as he sat down, Cedric complained in a very exaggerated voice, "Oh...... The seats here are really hard. ”

Fred and George's faces darkened suddenly.

What Cedric meant, they knew all too well.

"I'm so sorry...... Fred said in a long voice, "we didn't make it to the top of the bench...... So you have to come to the ordinary box. ”

"If you don't mind." George quickly took off his robe, folded it twice, and placed it on an empty seat, "How about sitting here, although it is not as comfortable as the velvet cushion, it should be good." ”

"I think you're mistaken." Cedric gave a scowling smile, "I'm just complaining about the Hogwarts Express facilities, and it has nothing to do with you.

"Of course, if you don't put a bite ball in your robe, I don't mind making myself more comfortable."

He had just seen that George had stuffed something like a cushion into it as he folded his robe.

It's also Jokowi's old joke prop, as long as someone sits on it, it turns into a ball with fangs, and it still hurts to be bitten.

"Tsk......"

Seeing that Cedric had not been fooled, George pursed his lips and put away his robe again.

"You're not what you used to be, Cedric." Fred said with a sad face, "Even we can't say such excessive things. ”

"I don't think so." Cedric raised an eyebrow, "If I hadn't been a prefect today, you'd have said the same." ”

"I promise, no." George said with a serious face.

"Because we'll start teasing you from the moment we leave the castle." Fred said with a grin.

Soon after they were seated, the train started and headed for King's Cross station with a whistle.

Unlike the rainy weather, there are no clouds outside the car window, and the bright sun shines on people warmly.

Strange to say, it seems that every year, it is always a rainy day at the beginning of the school year, but when it comes to the holidays, it becomes completely different.

Several people sat in the carriage, and the conversation involuntarily turned to what Dumbledore had said at the banquet last night.

The impact of those words was undoubtedly enormous, and even in the box, they could hear words like "Dumbledore" and "madman" from time to time outside.

It seems that most people think of him as an old madman and then say some foolish things.

"You say, did the headmaster ever think things would turn out like this?" "Not many people seem to believe him," Fred said. ”

"I guess he knows." "But what he wants is not for everybody to believe, it's not realistic, he just wants everybody to be prepared so that when that day comes, everyone will be too flustered and mess up." ”

"Probably." George shrugged, noncommittal.

They then speculated about what Dumbledore would do to stop Voldemort during the holidays, and by the time it was almost noon, the hallway was getting more and more lively.

The feud between Gryffindor and Slytherin doesn't seem to be over yet, and it's going on to this day, with Kyle hearing a burst of arguing from time to time, and this time the other houses are joining.

The content is also related to Dumbledore.

Almost all Slytherins thought Dumbledore was crazy and taunted him in the boxes and hallways.

Some of the students were not happy on the spot when they heard this, and began to argue with them, which gradually turned into an argument.

There was no way, and the few people who were prefects had to leave the box and come to the corridor to maintain order.

Fred and George were not idle, they went to Harry and asked who the Death Eaters were that night.

The rest of the journey was somewhat boring, and the train carried them all the way south. Outside the window, there were fewer hills and woods, and they could see the village gradually, which also meant that the train was about to arrive.

At this time, Kyle and the others also returned to the carriage.

Fred and George are already waiting here, along with Harry, Hermione, and Ron, who are playing Crackle Blast.

When Kyle enters, Harry's cards have just exploded, his hair standing on end and smoke coming from the top of his head.

Harry quickly grabbed his hair with his hand, stood up and said, "Kyle, I was looking for you." ”

"What's the matter?" Kyle asked,

He thought Harry was going to tell him what had happened that night, but he had named someone else.

"Sirius, do you know where his home is?" Harry said, "I remember he mentioned to me that you were there. ”

"I did." Kyle nodded, "Strange, didn't he tell you?"

"Last semester, he seemed to have said he was going to pick you up."

"That's right." Harry sighed, "I was promised that I could stay with him during the holidays this year, but just yesterday, when I went to ask him for his address, he repented!" ”

"Repentance? It can't be......" Kyle was a little strange.

Sirius wished he was going to live with Harry, and even had his job arranged after graduation, so how could he regret it.

"That's true." Harry whispered, "He said this year was dangerous and asked me to stay at the Dursleys...... But he clearly said before that even if Voldemort came, he would be able to keep me safe. ”

"Hmm...... Just listen to this, he's bragging. Kyle unceremoniously debunks Sirius' swollen face and fat man.

If he really encountered Voldemort, Sirius could only use his life to buy Harry time to escape.

"So......" Kyle continued, "you just want to find him yourself?" ”

Harry nodded, "Yes. ”

"I guess he has something to do." Kyle thought about Sirius suddenly disappearing for a while a few days before the holiday.

I guess there was something else he had to do this holiday, and it was safer for Harry to stay at his aunt's house without his own protection.

Because Lily Evans' protective charm hadn't gone away, but it only worked if Harry was living with his only blood relatives, the Dursleys.
