Chapter 315: Farce on the Train to the Beginning of School
Time is falling as fast as the hair of middle-aged people.
In a blink of an eye, the Easter holiday is over, and the school season is coming again, September 1, 1995.
But this is only for freshmen.
For old students, August 13, the day when the Easter holiday ends and they take the train back to Hogwarts, is more like the beginning of school.
But because today is the beginning of school, we have a holiday on Tuesday, two days before, to give old students who want to go home and take the train with freshmen to attend the opening dinner a chance.
Hermione is one of them.
But her reason is different, "I thought about you for a long time on the train last year. This time we are going to start school together, Bucky."
"I think so too, Steve, not Hermione." Basil replied with no desire.
For a moment, I almost thought I was role-playing, the other party was Captain America, and I was the Winter Soldier.
Hermione ignored Basil's slip of the tongue. This is normal in the wizarding world today. Because of information pollution, anyone may suddenly say a few nonsense words.
Last time at Harry's birthday party, when Malfoy was discovered, he yelled, "I don't want to be a human anymore, Brot!" "You give me Luda!" "This is my escape route" and fled the scene in a serpentine manner.
Ron also stared at Malfoy's back and said, "This boy must not be kept, otherwise he will become a big trouble in the future!"
Ginny was moved and patted her brother's shoulder and said, "Thanks to information pollution, otherwise you will never be able to say such literary words in your life!"
Hermione now cares only about going to school with her lover and enjoying the time they spend alone.
This is why Ron and Harry, who were also on the train, were driven to another compartment by her, and the door was closed, and several protective spells were cast.
The solidity to prevent the door from being opened, the disappearance of the sound of the outside world, and the safe guarding to reduce the sense of presence.
"Here, this is a smoked ham, tuna and mashed potato sandwich I made. I learned it from my mother." Hermione held out a lunch box like she was offering a treasure and opened it, "I even heated it up specially."
Bajiel took it, and he was actually a little touched.
Noticing that he didn't like cold food, he didn't use the salt and vinegar flavor that the British liked, and replaced the hummus with mashed potatoes that he liked more, and
"Here, Coke, Pepsi."
Taking the Coke that was obviously chilled with a freezing spell, Bajiel began to feast on it.
In the next compartment, Ron's ears left the wall, "What are they doing? I can't hear anything."
Ginny said unhappily, "Hermione has been preparing for this for a long time, don't think of disturbing her. Right, Harry."
Harry nodded quickly. Between his brother and his girlfriend, he still chose his girlfriend.
The reason why he was free today was because today was the first day of school at Hogwarts, and the spell card world had specially adjusted the courses for the sixth and seventh grade students to have a holiday.
Harry and Cedric don't have to be busy with live broadcasts, so they can have a good rest.
In fact, for live broadcasts, taking classes with sixth and seventh graders in the Spell Card World, some of Harry and Cedric's investors think that this is a waste of their training time.
This is a kind of moral kidnapping launched by the global audience.
Especially Cedric, his [path] is not like Harry's love and becoming stronger.
Harry barely has a legitimate reason - to accompany his three wives.
And Cedric, he might as well go streaking in the Forbidden Forest!
When Cedric himself learned of this statement, he almost thought that his streaking was exposed.
But Harry didn't care, just like today, he put his wife and girlfriend first. If Ginny was also in the Spell Card World, he might not come back.
Ron held his heart in his hands and looked up at Harry, "The love and time of these years are all wasted after all!"
Harry was so scared that his scalp was numb. He pulled back and leaned towards Ginny, shouting, "We are just pure friendship!"
Ron coughed dryly, "It's information pollution again, but what I mean is almost the same. Harry, you are too much. I remember that I was the first to know you."
Ginny looked at Ron with disdain and hugged Harry, who was like a little bird. "But I was the first to notice Harry. I saw him first, at King's Cross Station. And, do you like being a light bulb so much?"
Ron snorted, hugged his arms and leaned against the wall and muttered, "If it wasn't Lavender..."
"Why don't you wait at Hogwarts like Lavender, and have to catch the train." Harry, who drew a sense of security from Ginny's square face and broad shoulders, regained his curiosity.
"I want to go home too." Ron found an excuse.
"I know," Ginny looked at her brother with contempt, "He's secretly playing beast fighting and Fred and George."
With the promotion of summoning cards, almost every little wizard has a summoned beast.
Beast fighting has become a trend.
Summoning is divided into two modes, entity and projection.
Summoned beasts in the entity state can be killed, and the contracted wizard will also be hurt, so wizards will not use this method except for collecting valuable by-products such as fur and venom.
The projection state is different. This does not mean creating an image, but a touchable body composed of energy. The summoned beast can also truly sense the outside world.
Summoned beasts in this state cannot be killed, but can only be defeated. Being defeated will at most consume the wizard's magic power.
It is precisely because of this mechanism that beast fighting has become popular among wizards with summoned beasts.
But this is not allowed by the school.
Hagrid and Professor Sprout believe that this is an act of harming summoned beasts. They will not die, but they can truly feel the pain when they are defeated.
Professor McGonagall thinks this is too barbaric, and the young wizards may not be able to control the summoned beasts and cause accidental injuries.
Therefore, beast fighting has always been a sneaky underground activity, held in empty classrooms with small spaces and abandoned rooms.
In the case that the organizers are not good at the traceless extension spell, some young wizards with large summoned beasts can only be spectators and cannot participate.
"He thinks it is inconvenient in school. His bird snake can show a larger body in a wide space, and the duel is more advantageous."
"But this is too cruel," Ginny said, summoning a big-headed hairy monster and holding it in her arms, "They will also feel pain."
Harry immediately stood on Ginny's side unconditionally, but before condemning it, he took a look at the big-headed hairy monster in Ginny's arms.
Its gray head is indeed round and big.
But he was a little speechless. How could such a little thing that looked like a gray fur doll and was not even as tall as a calf be called a demon in the Soviet Union, no, in the Russian legend.
This little thing is so harmless.
It is hostile to humans and even wants to eat people.
What it likes most is to play hide-and-seek behind humans.
Whenever humans turn around, it lies on the ground and camouflages itself with its head that looks like a bright and round stone.
When humans sit down, it pounces on them and tries to attack.
But it is too weak, not even as tall as a newborn baby. You can defeat it and drive it away by standing up and kicking it.
Its bite force is also very weak. Muggles in the wild sometimes can't feel its attack at all. They can drive it away by waving their hands and turning over.
If there is something related to the demon, it is its inherent fear attitude.
But this fear attitude is better than nothing.
First, you have to not find it.
Second, it will follow you for several hours before it can completely make you despair.
Finally, even if you fall into despair and start crying, but it jumps out with a rua and tries to attack you, you are more likely to be overwhelmed by its cuteness.
The most common thing the Russian Ministry of Magic does is to rescue the big-headed furry monsters that failed to prey on humans and were caught as novel pets by Muggles.
"It's so cute." Harry couldn't help but put his fingers into the big-headed furry monster's mouth.
The little thing was clearly biting it hard, but he only felt sucking and a slight sense of pressure.
Hmm?
Wet, warm, caught by Muggles as toys?
Harry, who has grown into an adult, thought about it wrongly for a while.
"Am I not as good as it?" Ron, who was ready to be condemned by Harry, was a little speechless, "Why don't you scold me."
"Yes," Ginny nodded and took back the big-headed hairy monster, "Why don't you scold him."
Harry coughed, "Generally speaking, the projections made by beginners are not stable, and if the fighting beast wants to win, it often requires the wizard to inject consciousness into it to control it, which means that the summoned beast can't feel much pain at all, and its projection is defeated."
"Duelists can also empathize, just like participating in a boxing match in person."
"In fact, fighting beasts are also very popular in the world of spell cards, but because magical animals in that world are too precious, most wizards' summoned beasts are magical plants, and the Sniff is a pet with no combat power, so it is rarely seen on campus."
"What?" Ron widened his eyes, "You can control it yourself? Fred and George cheated!"
Ginny sneered, "This is your own skill. If you really do it yourself, dare you compete with Spider "Are you going to fight a spider? A giant spider as big as a calf."
"I didn't dare." Ron said loudly as if he was very proud, "It's not my fault. If you were holding your teddy bear and suddenly it sprouted many legs and jumped on your face, you would be scared too."
"I was only three years old at that time."
"And it was Fred's fault because I broke his toy broom."
"But he didn't get any punishment."
Ginny rolled her eyes, "Toy brooms are not cheap, you broke it and you were lucky that your mother didn't beat you."
"You know you were only three years old, and Fred was only five at that time."
"Without a wand, secretly turning a teddy bear into a movable spider, instead of a momentary emotional outburst, I finally understand why my mother has such high expectations for Fred and George, especially Fred."
"Yes, he is a genius, George is a genius, Percy, Bill, Charlie, and you are all geniuses, but I can't do it!" Ron ran out of the carriage.
"What's wrong with him?" Ginny didn't chase Ron, her cheeks flushed with anger, "I look down on his personality, he is also very talented, the silent spell before was so beautiful."
"He is like this because he only knows how to play."
Ron dropped his wand and returned to the carriage and stopped.
"We were all studying when he was playing."
"After the results came out, he blamed everything on our talent and ignored our efforts."
"Didn't he see Percy staying in his room all day studying during the summer vacation?"
"Fred and George made funny props, which can be regarded as indirectly training their magic and alchemy abilities."
"And he only knows how to read comics, play cards, eat, and sleep late."
"If he puts 50% of his energy into studying, his grades won't be so mediocre."
"He also led you astray before."
"Fortunately, Hermione urged you two."
"Otherwise, he wouldn't have such mediocre grades!"
"Have you always thought of Ron like this?" Harry took a deep breath, and his expression began to become a little cold, "He never led me astray."
Ginny's pupils trembled, as if she didn't believe that Harry would say that to her for Ron.
Ron's eyes were filled with tears.
"He plays wizard chess very well. In front of Professor McGonagall's chess soldiers, it was he who led us to victory and blocked the attack with his flesh and blood."
"He cares about you, his sister. He knew you were captured in the Chamber of Secrets, but he still risked his life to save you with a broken wand."
"He is a very qualified friend. When everyone thought Sirius was a vicious Death Eater, he stood in front of me and said that if you want to hurt me, you must kill him first."
"There is a reason why he is so unconfident."
"Because at home, he has always been the least noticeable one."
"You, the most beloved one, have no right to say such things at all!"
Harry said this and walked out of the carriage door directly, looking into the eyes of Ron with tears in his eyes.
"Harry."
"Ron."
The two hugged each other thoroughly.
Many wizards who didn't know the truth but knew Ron and Harry walked out of the carriage door and started applauding.
Ginny, who was about to chase Harry, felt that all this was extremely dazzling.
It turns out that if Ron was Ron, Gimli, no, Ginny Weasley would have no chance at all.
Swish!
The door of the carriage that was cast with many protective spells was pushed open directly by Basil.
"You two, if you want to be affectionate, go back to the carriage. You are disturbing my eyes."
"Got it." Ron wiped his tears.
"Yeah." Harry held Ron's hand and returned to his own carriage.
Ginny sat down quickly, looked out the window, and pretended that she didn't see anything.
After returning to the carriage.
"Ginny, I'm back." Ron said.
He had a sense of déjà vu that he had robbed his sister's boyfriend.
He was actually deeply touched by Ginny's words, and Ginny was telling the truth.
He didn't understand why Harry reacted so strongly.
But he was very moved, and even had a flash of thought that it would be better if he was a girl like Ron.
"Yeah." Ginny nodded.
"I'm back too." Harry said dryly, and sat next to Ron.
Ginny didn't respond, and for a moment, it seemed as if an invisible barrier separated the two of them.
