In summer, soak watermelon in well water and it will taste cool and sweet.

They also watched the summer fireflies at night, with the breeze accompanied by the croaking of frogs, and the two kissed in the quiet woods.

After returning to China, such days also ended. Those days were really like a dream.

When Harry woke up in Sirius's house, he felt like he was in another world. Looking at the strange yet familiar ceiling, Harry felt a little lost.

He has yet to adjust to life back in England.

Harry went downstairs to eat with a depressed look on his face.

Sirius took a piece of toast and was about to go out. "I'm going to work. The letter from Hogwarts should be arriving soon. I'll take you to Diagon Alley later."

Harry nodded weakly.

Sirius found a job, which seemed to be in an amusement park. He worked happily every day and shared interesting stories about the amusement park with Harry. He said he would take Harry to play when it officially opened.

After Harry finished his breakfast, a gray-brown owl brought him a letter from Hogwarts.

He opened it and saw a heavy envelope besides school supplies.

Harry opened it and took a look, then dumped out a badge.

This badge looked familiar to him; it was the prefect badge that Percy often showed off.

Gold and red, with the Gryffindor prefect badge featuring a lion in the background.

Harry was happy for a few seconds, then he thought of Ron. If Hermione and he were both prefects, Ron would be unhappy.

He put aside the thoughts in his mind and decided to share the good news with Yin Li first.

"I don't plan to stay in the bank, so they gave me the title of consultant. After the bank stabilizes, I plan to take a look at the technology department," said William.

He and Oliver were visiting at the Cavendish home.

"I went to the planning department of the theme park, specializing in all sorts of weird and wonderful things. I have to say it's perfect for me! I never thought there would be such an interesting job. You must come to my office and take a look..."

Yin Li was quietly listening to the two people sharing their daily lives when suddenly the phone rang.

Oliver fell silent. Yin Li answered the phone, "Hello, this is Upala Cavendish."

"Hey Yin Li, I received a letter from Hogwarts today. Guess what's in it?"

Yin Li smiled when he heard this. He picked up the blue and bronze prefect badge next to the table. It had an eagle in the background and a big "P" on it. "A prefect badge, right?"

When William and Oliver saw him like this, they knew who had called and looked at each other helplessly.

"Yes! You got it too, right? I'm so happy!"

Yin Li heard the banging sounds coming from the other end, maybe Harry jumped for joy.

If the etiquette teacher saw this, she would definitely scold Harry.

"I didn't see you that happy when you won the Triwizard Tournament trophy?" Yin Li teased.

"I can't help it. Voldemort's incident was such a huge shock. I couldn't even think about being happy about the Triwizard Tournament under those circumstances." Harry then added worriedly, "But I'm a little worried that Ron might be sad to see this. After all, Hermione might become a prefect."

"At times like this, just be selfish and simply be happy. It's not too late to talk about Ron's matter after school starts."

Yin Li comforted him.

Yin Li was right. Harry decided to be happy first. "Then we'll meet in Diagon Alley."

"Yeah." Yin Li nodded and hung up the phone.

"I feel a little uncomfortable not receiving any letters this year," said William.

Oliver agreed, "Yeah, it's kind of sad to think that we've already left Hogwarts."

It is generally difficult for students who graduate from Hogwarts to return to Hogwarts, except for those who are re-employed by the school. They don’t even have the opportunity to go back and take a look.

"It's been less than a year since we graduated, and you're already starting to miss it." Yin Li complained.

"You'll understand when you graduate. Hogwarts has such magic that we start to miss it as soon as we leave." Oliver said in a low voice.

……

Several people met in Diagon Alley.

In Diagon Alley stands a magnificent building, more conspicuous than Gringotts, with a sign that reads Hof Bank.

Hermione exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, Hof Bank has opened here."

Mrs. Granger was also a little surprised to see something familiar. "Your father once saved money here. Let's go in and take a look."

Mr. Granger nodded.

Hermione nodded to Ron and Harry and went inside with her parents.

The Weasley family also stood in front of the bank, watching curiously as people came and went inside.

Arthur Weasley was also curious and wanted to go in to take a look, but was caught by Molly Weasley, "Our money is all in Gringotts. We have to go get it."

Ginny and Ron blushed in embarrassment, and the Weasley twins were also very interested and wanted to go in and take a look.

"Mom, just go in and take a look. It's free!" said George.

Fred said, "Maybe we should save some money."

"Oh, Harry, you guys are going to withdraw money too, right? Let's go to Gringotts." Molly ignored them and asked Harry and Sirius.

Sirius looked at the bank's logo and took out a piece of paper. "Oh, I can collect my salary at this bank. They reminded me to open an account. Sorry, Molly, I have to take Harry in to check it out."

"Hey, Molly, let's follow Sirius in and take a look." Arthur suggested.

"Come on in, come on in." George and Fred also looked expectant.

Molly finally agreed to go in and take a look.

As soon as they entered the room, a woman in uniform smiled and said to them, "Hello, how can I help you?"

Sirius raised the payslip in his hand and said, "I need to open an account and withdraw the money."

"Okay, please follow me." The woman led them into a small room on the left side of the lobby. "They're here to open their payroll account."

Then she stepped aside to let everyone in. After everyone was in, she placed tea and biscuits on everyone and left.

George and Fred picked up the cookies without hesitation and started eating them.

Sirius then opened an account at the bank. He withdrew part of his salary and put part of it into the account.

As they walked out of the bank, he held up a card, somewhat puzzled, "Can I really pay with this?"

Harry's knowledge in this area was somewhat limited. After all, his aunt never took him out shopping. "You can try it later."

After they walked out of the bank, Mrs. Weasley was also very satisfied. Although they did not do any business in the bank, they enjoyed free refreshments.

"Okay, now we can go get the money," said Molly.

The rest of the Weasley family settled in and followed her to get the money.

Harry and Sirius went for a walk first.

They bought new books at the bookstore, and when they checked out, the clerk asked, "How do you pay?"

Sirius said, somewhat puzzled, "Swipe the card?"

The clerk operated a square alchemical tool that looked like a tablet, and then checked the price of the book for Sirius.

After Sirius confirmed.

"Please swipe your card here." The clerk pointed to the virtual card slot below the square.

Sirius swiped the card below and the clerk confirmed the balance with him.

"I think this is very convenient. I don't have to carry heavy gold Galleons." Sirius sighed.

The clerk agreed, "This is also convenient for us, so we won't make mistakes in counting money."

"Come on, Harry, let's see if there's anything else we can buy." Sirius said excitedly while holding Harry's book. He had completely fallen in love with this new thing and couldn't wait to try it again.

As the two of them walked out, Hermione and her family also walked to Flourish and Blotts.

"Hey Harry, I'm a prefect now, are you one too? I wanted to wait until today to tell you in person." Hermione said to Harry happily.

"That's right, me too. Upala also became the headmaster of Ravenclaw." Harry said.

"That's great, everyone will be a prefect then." Hermione suddenly thought, "Oh, except Ron."

Mr. Granger reminded her, "Let's go shopping first."

Hermione nodded, "Let's meet at Florin's Ice Cream Shop after we finish shopping."

Hermione waved and walked into Flourish and Blotts.

Yin Li and Caroline arrived a little late.

Caroline went to buy things for him, and Yin Li saw the three of them at Florin's Cold Drink Shop.

"Harry." Yin Li greeted Harry, "Hi, Hermione, Ron."

Hermione saw him and greeted him happily, "You're a prefect too, Upala? I knew that a long time ago."

Yin Li noticed that Ron's expression was not very good. He obviously found this topic extremely boring.

Hermione was still speaking excitedly, "I was so surprised when I received the prefect badge. My parents were so happy for me that they even bought me a gift."

Yin Li said, "My grandmother didn't react much, but she gave me a Niffler during the summer vacation."

Harry joined in the conversation. "Sirius was also very happy to see me get the badge. He said that even my father had never been a prefect. He even wanted to buy me a new broom, but the Firebolt was good enough, so I refused."

Harry smiled.

Then Harry suggested that he and Yin Li go for a walk alone, and they separated.

"The Voldemort incident is over. You can enjoy your campus life this school year." Yin Li and Harry walked slowly in Diagon Alley holding hands.

"I used to enjoy campus life," said Harry.

"I don't believe it." Yin Li looked at Harry's scar, which had healed as before. "I don't know who the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher is this year."

"It can't be Moody again. He's old enough. I hope it's a more reliable professor, like Professor Lupin."

"Did you see Professor Lupin again? He was a friend of your father, wasn't he?"

"Yes, the four of them, my father, Sirius, Lupin, and Peter, are all friends. Professor Lupin came to see Sirius, and he has found a job. The company allows him to work for only half a month, and of course the salary is a little less. But at least he is doing okay now. He often has dinner with us." Harry turned his head to look at Yin Li, "I think this kind of life is pretty good now."

The next day I boarded the Hogwarts Express.
