Hogwarts: This holy light is righteously evil

As soon as he said that, the carriage fell silent.

Qiu Zhang froze at the doorway, her cheeks flushing crimson, her ears burning, her eyes blinking frantically, and she gripped the doorframe helplessly, stammering, "I...I didn't...I just wanted to ask if I could sit here..."

Puni then realized he had misheard. He coughed awkwardly, quickly closed his book, and straightened his posture, his eyes filled with apology: "I'm so sorry, I was so engrossed in my book that I misheard. I'm very sorry, and I apologize for my ungentlemanly behavior."

He gestured to the empty seat opposite him: "Of course you can sit here, the carriage is very empty, please sit anywhere."

"Thank you!" Qiu Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled a little embarrassedly, and squeezed in carrying his ridiculously large suitcase.

But as soon as he turned around and looked at the overhead luggage rack, his brows furrowed slightly. He tried twice but couldn't lift it up, and he was too embarrassed to ask for help, so he could only stand there in a dilemma.

Puni stared at her for two seconds before snapping out of his daze—he had been so caught up in his surprise at meeting a yellow-skinned Chinese girl on the Hogwarts Express that he had completely forgotten the most basic gentlemanly manners.

He swiftly drew his wand from his wrist and tapped it lightly: "Wingardium Leviosa (levitation charm)."

Magic surged.

The suitcase immediately floated up lightly and landed steadily on the luggage rack.

Cho Chang's eyes instantly lit up like stars, filled with surprise and envy: "You can already use magic so skillfully? Are you a pure-blood wizard?"

"I guess so." Puni put away his wand, not going into much detail about his family.

Cho Chang didn't mind and laughed sheepishly to herself, "I just can't... I'm half-blood. My mother is a wizard, but she never said that. I never knew that magic existed in this world, so I haven't been able to cast more than a few complete spells since I got the wand."

As she spoke, she put down the small bag on her shoulder and looked curiously at Puni. When she saw the thick book in his hand, which was as thick as a brick, she blinked.

"Are these your books? They're huge! I feel like I could read them for a whole semester—and still not finish them."

Puni smiled and said, "Yes, let me introduce myself. My name is Puni Lestrange."

The girl immediately realized her mistake: "Oh! I'm so sorry, I was so busy chatting with you that I forgot to introduce myself. How rude of me!"

Mom also said that you must greet others when you see them after going out!

But after seeing this handsome boy, she completely forgot her mother's instructions!

My name is Qiu Zhang.

Puni smiled and said, "Hello, Qiu Zhang, it's nice to meet you."

"Hello, hello." Qiu Zhang and Puni exchanged a glance, then quickly lowered their heads, somewhat shy.

"Would you like to read some magic books? I think you've probably read some textbooks at home, right?" Puni asked.

"Yes, yes." Qiu Zhang smiled sweetly, then pursed her lips. "But I seem to have no talent. My mother taught me how to chant spells, but when I hold this wooden magic wand, I can't cast any spells. Those spells just don't listen to me."

Puni nodded: "Learning magic is a very tedious process. If you haven't been exposed to magic before, it's normal for your spells to not work. But as long as you can calm down, you'll find that learning magic isn't boring at all; on the contrary, it's quite interesting."

Qiu Zhang nodded in deep agreement: "Yes! Magic is really interesting!"

With a slight blush, she recounted the first time she realized that magic existed in the world.

"My mom used the spell you just mentioned to make me float up into the sky—it felt so amazing! So I promised my mom I would study magic hard and become a great magician!"

Looking at Qiu Zhang's face, which possessed a distinctly oriental charm and temperament, and seeing the excited yet unassuming expression on his face, Puni couldn't help but find it amusing.

He did not correct Qiu Zhang's statement that the common term for wizards in the wizarding world was not magician, but wizard.

He listened to the other person's story while observing them.

Qiu Zhang has long, glossy black hair, which is currently tied back with a plain ribbon. A few strands of hair fall on her smooth forehead, swaying gently as she tries to shake her head, but is restrained by her upbringing.

In fact, Qiu Zhang's appearance was not particularly three-dimensional, but he was very handsome, with a clean and smooth oval face and a small, upturned nose.

Especially her deep brown almond eyes, with clear and gentle pupils, like amber soaked in a mountain spring, filled with unguarded curiosity and shy smiles.

Overall, Qiu Zhang's appearance is quite in line with Puni's aesthetic standards.

"My mom said that at Hogwarts, students are sorted into different houses. I wonder..."

Suddenly, Qiu Zhang glanced at Puni with a hint of embarrassment.

"Hmm?" Puni looked back at her.

Qiu Zhang became even more embarrassed: "I wonder if there's any chance we'll be assigned to the same college?"

Swish!

The carriage door was opened.

Two red-haired men squeezed in.

"Come to Gryffindor, all of you!"

"The brave lions will welcome you!"

Faced with the sudden arrival of the two.

Qiu Zhang was stunned for a moment, and his previously vigorous emotions instantly subsided. He sat there without saying a word.

Seeing this, Puni turned his head and glanced at the two of them sideways: "Don't you even know to knock before coming in?"

George chuckled, "Sorry, sorry, we were rude."

Fred pulled out a box of candy: "This is our apology gift. Please, both of you, have a taste?"

George nodded repeatedly: "Yes! Please try some, these are handmade gummies, and there are several flavors inside."

Puni glanced at them, then looked at Qiu Zhang, who was too embarrassed to speak, and suddenly smiled.

"These two guys scared you, didn't they? Here's an apology for you, you can try it."

Upon hearing Puni speak, the twins immediately stepped forward, each holding a box of candy, and placed it in front of the two of them.

"Respected sir."

"Beautiful lady."

"These are Wesley's Train gummies—please try them!"

Looking at the guy in front of him, who was somewhat indistinguishable between George and Froude, Puni didn't pay him any attention. Instead, he said to Qiu Zhang, "Try it. I know these two guys. They're not bad people."

Qiu Zhang snapped out of his daze and immediately shook his head: "No, I don't think they're bad people, it's just that I'm a little..."

"Ahem! Thank you all, then I'll try one."

Seeing this, George immediately pushed the box in his hand towards Puni as well: "Why don't you two eat it together?"
