Hogwarts: I Became the Third Dark Lord.

Seeing this, Wentworth raised his palm and placed it in front of Harry Potter, saying:

"If you like it, take a second look!"

Harry Potter: ...

Wentworth turned to Hagrid and said:

"Besides that check, Emerald left this Muggle family something else: Amazonian fire ant eggs! I think by the time Harry Potter returns after this term, the Dursleys will have moved to a new house!"

As Wentworth spoke, he withdrew the Bowtruckle from his hand, winked at Harry Potter, and said:

"Harry, I think you won't have to sleep in that damn storage room next year!"

Upon hearing Wentworth's words, Harry Potter timidly replied:

"Thank you, Wentworth, but I might not be able to pay you back anytime soon..."

But Hagrid spoke up from the side:

"It's okay, Harry, you'll have money soon!"

Then, Wentworth and Harry Potter, led by Hagrid, went through the Broken Axe Bar to Diagon Alley. While at the Broken Axe Bar, Wentworth made a point of looking around but did not spot Professor Quirrell, who first appeared there in the original book.

Upon closer reflection, Wentworth realized that, according to the original timeline, Hagrid should have found Harry Potter tonight, so their arrival at the Broken Axe would have been tomorrow, thus altering the timeline once again.

The three of them went straight to Gringotts after entering Diagon Alley. Hagrid also took out the key to Gringotts for the Potter family. The three of them first went to the Potter family's underground vault. However, when faced with stacks of Galleons inside, only Harry Potter, the owner, stood in front of the door and sighed for a while. Wentworth and Hagrid were not very interested.

The three then went together to Gringotts Vault 713, where Hagrid took out a small bag. Wentworth knew that inside was the Philosopher's Stone, the pinnacle of alchemy in the magical world.

Upon seeing this, Wentworth suddenly had a bold idea, but now was not the time to put it into practice, so Wentworth remained silent.

Just as Hagrid was about to leave with Harry Potter, Wentworth spoke up:

"Wait a mininute."

Then Wentworth said to the goblin who was leading the way:

"I'll also go to vault 714 next door. I've been spending too much lately, so I need to withdraw some Galleons."

Afterwards, the group arrived together at Vault 714 in Gringotts. When Wentworth used his own blood to open the door to Vault 714, Harry Potter exclaimed in surprise:

Are all wizards in the magical world this rich?

Just as Hagrid was explaining to Harry Potter, Wentworth walked into his vault, swung his arm, and swept a large stack of Galleons into his pocket, which was enchanted with a stretching charm.

But at that moment, Wentworth inadvertently noticed that there seemed to be a letter placed in the center of his vault.

"This letter didn't seem to be here when I came last time. Did I miss it?"

Wentworth walked over with a surprised look, only to find that there was no signature on the envelope.

Wentworth opened the envelope with some curiosity and began to read.

After a while, Hagrid, outside the vault, noticed that Wentworth remained motionless in the same position and couldn't help but ask curiously:

"What happened, Wentworth?"

Wentworth then realized what was happening and replied:

"It's nothing, just wait a little longer!"

Wentworth turned his gaze back to the letter and read it carefully again. It read:

Dear Mr. Wentworth Grindelwald, please forgive my intrusion into your warehouse and for leaving this letter.

I just want to remind you of something: your parents didn't die in a car accident. I was there at the time. There was a powerful force that murdered them!

They wanted something from your parents, but they failed.

But they never gave up, and if they find an opportunity, they will definitely make a comeback!

You must be wondering who I am, right? I'm one of them!

The reason I left this letter is because I am also a follower of Lord Gellert Grindelwald! But I know that Lord Grindelwald will not accept me, nor will the Umayyad Party.

Please be careful in the future. I sincerely hope that the UMNO can regain its former glory in your hands!

Don't ask me why I did this; it's for the greater good!

Wentworth put the letter away, thought for a moment, then turned to Hagrid and asked:

"Hagrid, did you bring paper and pen?"

Wentworth took the letter and quill from Hagrid and began to write, but after only a few words, he stopped, tore the letter to shreds, and finally wrote down only one question:

What do you want?

After writing it down, Wentworth turned the paper upside down in his vault, glanced at vault 714 one last time, and then turned and left.

On the way back to the ground, Hagrid tried to speak several times, but seeing Wentworth's silent expression, he ultimately remained silent.

The three, finally back on Earth, emerged from Gringotts. Just as they were about to head to Ollivander's Wand Shop, a somewhat familiar voice rang out from behind Wentworth:

"Wentworth?! It really is you!"

Wentworth turned around and saw Draco Malfoy running towards him excitedly.

Wentworth glanced at Harry Potter beside him and immediately felt that today was going to be interesting!

Chapter 163 A Fateful Encounter

Draco Malfoy jogged up to Wentworth and said excitedly:

"Wentworth, are you also here to buy things for the new school term at Hogwarts? I'm starting at Hogwarts this year too! That way we can see each other more often!"

At the same time, Draco Malfoy glanced at Harry Potter and Hagrid, and asked with some confusion:

"These two are...your friends?"

It's no wonder Draco Malfoy was puzzled. After all, compared to Wentworth's impeccably tailored suit, Hagrid looked disheveled, and Harry was wearing ill-fitting old clothes. They didn't seem to be from the same world as Wentworth at all.

Hearing Draco Malfoy's question, Wentworth smiled and said:

"Let me introduce you. This is Hagrid, the custodian of Hogwarts keys and the game field keeper."

"Hello."

Draco Malfoy waved casually at Hagrid, looking completely uninterested.

Then Wentworth pointed at Harry Potter and said:

"And the man next to me, like you, is also a new student at Hogwarts. His name is Harry Potter."

Draco Malfoy's eyes widened immediately, and he said in disbelief:

"My God! It's the living Harry Potter?! No, I mean, I can't believe the rumors are true, Harry Potter himself is actually going to enroll at Hogwarts this year!"

At this point, Draco Malfoy quickly extended his hand to Harry Potter, introducing himself as follows:

"Hello Harry, my name is Draco, from the pure-blood Malfoy family! As you know, there are all kinds of wizards at Hogwarts, and we are destined to be better than some wizards. I think you certainly don't want to make the wrong friends, right? I can help you with that!"

Wentworth, on the other hand, stood quietly to the side with a strange smile, biting his nails and watching everything unfold before him. If there had been popcorn, Wentworth would have certainly bought himself a bucket.

Hagrid then leaned down and whispered in Wentworth's ear:

"Wentworth, is this really a good idea? I have a feeling this kid named Draco will lead Harry astray!"

Wentworth, without turning his head, said:

"Hagrid, we don't have the right to choose friends for others! Everyone has the right to make their own choices, as long as they are willing to pay the price."

Harry looked at Malfoy's hand, momentarily at a loss. This was the first time someone had told Harry they wanted to be his friend.

Harry Potter instinctively looked at Wentworth. Perhaps it was Wentworth who had led him out of that prison-like home, and Harry always had a strange sense of dependence on Wentworth.

Seeing Harry's pleading look, Wentworth immediately... raised his head, gazing at the sky above Diagon Alley, as if to say, "You made the decision yourself."

At this moment, Draco Malfoy said again:

"Don't worry about Wentworth's face, Harry. Wentworth and I are friends! We watched the Quidditch World Cup final together, and this Golden Snitch was a gift from Wentworth!"

As Draco Malfoy spoke, he used his other hand to pull out the Golden Snitch that Wentworth had given him and showed it to Harry Potter.

Wentworth: ? ? ?

Seeing this, Harry Potter no longer hesitated, raised his hand, and shook hands with Draco Malfoy.

"Hello Draco, my name is Harry, Harry Potter. It's nice to be your friend."

Looking at the scene before him, Wentworth felt a thrill of having a future before him, a feeling of being able to change it with his own hands, which made him want to celebrate with a butterbeer.

At that moment, Draco Malfoy hugged Harry Potter tightly and said to Wentworth with great excitement:

“Wentworth, seeing Harry Potter walking with you, I’m sure I’ve found the answer to the question we discussed last year!”

Wentworth responded with a bewildered expression:

"Problem? What problem?"

"Of course it's a question of which is more important, bloodline or strength! My answer is, both are important! Therefore, the friends we make must possess at least one of these two qualities! Of course, the best would be someone like Harry, a top-tier pure-blood wizard, who would be our best friend!"

Draco Malfoy said this to Wentworth with a straight face.

Upon hearing Draco Malfoy's answer, Wentworth covered his forehead with a slight headache and said nonchalantly:

"Think what you want, whatever makes you happy."

Seeing this, Draco Malfoy said with a smile:

“I understand, Wentworth. Dumbledore is the headmaster of Hogwarts now. There are some things we should keep to ourselves and not say in school!”

At this point, Draco Malfoy glanced at Hagrid beside Wentworth, who looked defiant.

Draco Malfoy then turned to Harry Potter and said:

"Harry, have you bought everything you need for the new term? I'll buy the rest for you! Consider it a gift when we meet."

Harry Potter shook his head and said:

"I haven't bought anything yet, but I have money, so there's no need to trouble you, Draco!"

Upon hearing Harry's answer, Draco Malfoy took Harry Potter's hand and headed towards Ollivanders wand shop, saying as he did so:

"In that case, we should definitely buy a wand first! You know, the first thing I bought when I came to Diagon Alley was a wand. You have no idea how long I've been looking forward to having my own wand for years!"
