Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying

[Vade: Why don't you go find a job in Muggle society? With your magical abilities, it shouldn't be difficult for you to survive.]

Chapter 125 Branching

[Lupin: Wizards can't use magic in front of Muggles. And I don't know how many jobs Muggles do, such as accounting and car repair.]

[Lupin: And I have to take a few days off every month, which makes my boss always unhappy with me. Once a replacement is found, I will be fired.]

[Lupin: All in all, everything is getting better now, and the past is nothing.]

[Weid: You live in Hogsmeade, so after the term starts, can't Harry go directly to school? ]

[Lupin: Indeed. But Ron invited Harry to visit the Weasleys these days, and they will still take the train when school starts.]

[Lupin: Riding the Hogwarts Express across the British Isles is also a valuable experience for students.]

Seeing Lupin's reply, Wade couldn't help but wonder: Will Harry be stopped by the brick wall again this time and then driven to school?

……

September 1st is coming soon.

Wade arrived at King's Cross Station half an hour early. He didn't need his parents to send him off. He just carried his suitcase and got on the train.

Anyway, the children would come home during the Christmas holidays. After a year, the Grays had gotten used to this kind of farewell and were no longer reluctant to part as they had been the first time.

Wade found a box, and soon Michael, Theo and Ryan also arrived.

While they chatted, Wade kept his eyes on the outside of the window.

From their box, they could just see the students running out through the brick wall.

When it was almost eleven o'clock, the Weasley family members appeared one after another.

Percy, Mr. Weasley, the twins, Ginny and Mrs. Weasley…

The smooth rhythm suddenly got stuck.

"Woooo——"

The train blew a long whistle, puffed out white steam, and began to move slowly forward.

Seconds later, Lupin had his arm around Harry's shoulders and they, along with Ron, were walking through the brick wall.

"Hurry up and get in the car!" Lupin shouted, "I'll help you take your suitcases to school."

Harry and Ron didn't have time to say anything more, they just ran, madly chasing after the gradually accelerating train.

The train full of students who were saying goodbye to their parents looked at them in surprise.

The Weasley twins stood at the door of a carriage, stretched out their hands, and pulled the two people into the car with a sudden jerk. The four of them rolled into the carriage together.

Ryan breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but say, "They should have left earlier. This is too thrilling."

Michael clung to Wade's shoulder and looked out. Hearing this, he said, "No. The entire platform is full of wizards. Are they going to let them fall?"

On the platform, Lupin also breathed a sigh of relief, and when he saw Wade, he smiled and waved to him.

Apparently, even though Harry was leaving with the Weasleys, he still rushed to the train station to see Harry off like any other parent.

This is how he managed to avoid the trap set by the house-elf Dobby.

In the original plot, Dobby, the Malfoy elf, would seal the brick wall at this time, intending to prevent Harry from going to school and being expelled from Hogwarts.

Unfortunately, the simple-minded elf did not understand that as the savior of the British wizarding world, Hogwarts would not expel Harry even if he was late or missed a semester.

His actions only caused the people he wanted to protect to be punished and ostracized out of thin air.

……

The train rattled along, and it was still after dark when it arrived at Hogwarts, and then the Sorting.

Wade also saw several familiar names -

Colin Creevey was so delighted when he was sorted into Gryffindor that he made a long detour to shake Harry's hand.

The child said enthusiastically but timidly: "Harry Potter, I... I admire you very much... Can we take a photo together later? I have a camera."

"Uh..." Harry looked at his friends for help, but they were all looking at him as if they were waiting for a good show. So he said, "Okay..."

Last semester, Wade had taken several photos with everyone, some of which were now on Harry's desk.

Dudley used to have lots of pictures, but Harry didn't have any.

But now he already has quite a few photos...but the look in the boy's eyes always makes him want to avoid him...

The last person who embarrassed him like this was Gilderoy Lockhart.

Harry looked towards the teachers' table.

Lockhart, glittering in his aqua-green robes, looked over at him as if he had eyes on the back of his head, and Harry hastily averted his gaze.

"Great!"

Colin almost jumped up and said excitedly: "I know your name is written in many books, and I know everything about you..."

Harry watched his mouth open and close, and hurriedly pushed him to the seat next to him.

"Stop talking, we're still sorting! Professor McGonagall is looking over here," said Harry.

Colin turned his head and met the stern gaze of the Head of Gryffindor. He shrank his neck and finally shut up.

"Luna Lovegood!" said Professor McGonagall.

"Ravenclaw!"

A girl with a wand tucked behind her ear and a dazed look walked to the Ravenclaw table. The applause gradually became smaller and soon stopped.

Everyone looked at the blonde girl and thought she looked a little strange.

He has a crazy temperament similar to Dumbledore.

The girl didn't seem to notice anything unusual, and said in a vague tone, "Nice to meet you all... Do you guys watch The Quibbler?"

The Ravenclaw prefect who was shaking her hand looked a little embarrassed: "Singing the devil's advocate?"

"Well, it's a magazine my dad runs," Luna said.

"Oh...oh, I'll read it when I get a chance." The head girl asked, "What is it about?"

"Um... it's a Scimitar-Horned Snorlax or something."

"Crumple-horned Snorkeller? I don't think I've seen this magical creature in any book."

"They live in Sweden." Luna said: "When I grow up, I will go to Sweden to look for this magical creature."

"Oh..." The female class leader smiled awkwardly, trying hard to recall whether she had forgotten any part of the book.

"Don't even think about it." Another prefect reminded her in a low voice: "This is a made-up creature."

"It's not made up." Luna's ears were surprisingly sharp. She emphasized seriously: "My father said they exist."

The two prefects could no longer laugh.

Then there was Rolf Scamander.

He was sorted into Hufflepuff, but he didn't go to his own house first, but ran to the Ravenclaw table.

"Weider, now we are in the same school! I will come to play with you tomorrow..."

Before he could finish his words, he was pulled away by the Hufflepuff prefect with a sullen face.

"This year's freshmen are really interesting, aren't they?" Michael said to Wade with a smile.

"Yeah." Wade nodded and looked at the last freshman to be sorted.

Ginny Weasley.

She looks very well.

Chapter 126 Friendship and Followers

When he woke up in the morning and opened his eyes to see the roof dotted with stars and the moon, Wade was stunned for a few seconds before he realized that he had arrived at school.

Today is Wednesday, and Ravenclaw only has one Herbology class in the morning, and it's not even the first one.

Wade got up, had breakfast, and went to the Room of Requirement again.

He transformed the room into what was needed to practice alchemy, placed the peepholes and detectors bought from the grocery store around it, placed damaged two-way mirrors and other items on the shelf, and then still came to the vanishing cabinet.

Before the holiday, Wade had repaired most of the Vanishing Cabinet.

For some parts that he never understood, he also consulted Newt Scamander and gained a lot from it.

The lake water in Newt's suitcase is connected to Loch Ness in the outside world, which is almost the same principle as the Vanishing Cabinet.

The difference is that Newt has set up a barrier at the junction, and only objects he allows (usually seawater and small marine life) can pass through.

There is no barrier between the disappearing cabinets, and the action of opening and closing the door can initiate two-way transmission.

The problem that has troubled Wade for a long time is just basic magic knowledge to Newt.

He solved the problem easily and even proposed an improved plan to make the transmission more stable and safer.

In the last few days of summer vacation, Wade finished the restoration design of the Vanishing Cabinet at home. Now, it was time to verify whether it was correct.

He stared at the Vanishing Cabinet with full concentration, and the depths of his eyes seemed to turn faintly golden.

A golden arc of light seemed to appear at the tip of the wand.

……

"What's wrong? Didn't you sleep well?"

Michael couldn't help but ask when he saw Wade yawn for the third time.

Wade said wearily, "I'm a little tired."

Concentrate on using your eyes and magic power. Even if you sit still, the consumption is quite high.

Fortunately, the vanishing cabinet has been repaired.

As far as Wade could see, the magic pattern circuit was smooth and natural, without any flaws.
