Hogwarts: The Strongest Animagus Ever

Grindelwald looked towards Durmstrang School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Reina lowered her head silently and stopped talking.

...

Hogwarts.

After the Lockhart incident, Hogwarts was quiet for a long time. During this time, Charlotte stayed in the library reading.

After all, he didn't need to go to class, as he had already taught himself most of the subjects.

Christmas was coming soon. Charlotte was sitting in the restaurant. Harry and Ron ran towards Charlotte breathlessly.

"Hey! Charlotte!" The two sat in front of Charlotte, and Ron said happily: "Fred told me that the third grade can go to Hogsmeade openly this Christmas. Charlotte, let's go with them!"

Ever since George and Fred told Harry and Ron about the passage under the Whomping Willow, Charlotte believed that the two of them had been there many times.

"We are in the second grade now. If Professor McGonagall finds out, we will definitely be deducted points." Charlotte turned her head and continued to look at the book in her hand.

This book was given to him by Newt. It was his notes when he was young. It has not been officially published. It records some strange and magical animals, which is very interesting.

"Oh, Charlotte, when did you become like Hermione? Don't spoil the fun. I heard that Hogsmeade will be very interesting during Christmas! And George and the others will be here too. We will have a very happy Christmas!" said Ron.

Harry chimed in, "Yeah, I think we're going to have a great time!"

Charlotte looked at Harry. Since Harry followed Black, he seemed to have become particularly cheerful. He asked, "Harry, Ron, aren't you going home for Christmas?"

Ron shook his head, "Of course not. Dad and Mum are in Romania to see Charlie. I'm not coming home."

Harry also nodded and said, "Sirius said that he also had something to do and asked me to stay at Hogwarts for Christmas."

Is something wrong with Sirius?

It is estimated that Dumbledore asked the Order of the Phoenix to search for Voldemort's whereabouts.

Charlotte thought about it and realized that reading every day was sometimes quite boring. It just so happened that he would not be going back home during Christmas and he had to consider settling down in the wizarding world in the future.

It’s a good time to start planning now.

"Okay, let's go together. By the way, where are Hermione and Qiao Ya?"

As they were talking, Hermione and Qiao Ya walked towards the three of them, talking and laughing.

Qiao Ya sat next to Charlotte and said, "I want to go home. Although we vampires don't like to celebrate Christmas, according to vampire rules, I have to stay at home on this day."

According to legend, vampires are descendants of Cain. As a lineage that does not believe in God, vampires almost avoid Christmas.

By the time of Qiao Ya's generation, the aversion to Christmas has faded a lot, but Qiao Ya still has to go home according to the rules of vampires.

"Charlotte, how about you come back with me? Maybe we can sneak away to the Muggle world!" Qiao Ya blinked and smiled sweetly.

Charlotte shook her head, "No, I've already agreed to go to Hogsmeade with Ron and Harry."

"Well, although we vampires don't like to say this, we still wish you a Merry Christmas." Qiao Ya said with a smile.

Charlotte nodded, ate with a few people, and then separated.

Christmas soon arrived. Charlotte, Ron and Harry sent Joey and Hermione out of Hogwarts and then walked towards the hall.

On the way, Hagrid was walking on the road holding a fir tree. The fir tree was much bigger than Hagrid and completely blocked his view. The snow on the fir tree fell on his beard and dropped down as he walked.

"Hagrid!" The three men stretched out their hands to greet Hagrid.

At this time, Malfoy came over with Crabbe and Goyle. He glanced at Charlotte and the other two with disgust and said, "Oh, you again. That's right. After all, only things in Hogwarts are free. Naturally, Weasley and you will stay!"

Charlotte frowned and took out her wand: "Well, Mr. Malfoy, feel the free snowflakes of Hogwarts before you leave."

With a flick of his wand, Malfoy's legs snapped together and he fell face first into the snow with a thud.

287 He cursed: "Damn Charlotte! Just wait!"

Charlotte smiled in a rare good mood: "Of course, Malfoy, there are still five years, I have been waiting."

Charlotte and the other two walked around Malfoy and came in front of Hagrid.

"Hagrid, do you need our help?" Charlotte asked.

Hagrid's head popped out from behind the fir tree. He looked at the three people in surprise and said, "Oh, Charlotte, Harry, and Ron, Merry Christmas. No need. Let's go to the hall together."

The three of them walked to the hall side by side. Because Harry had been taken back to the Le Black family by Sirius in his first year, Harry had never seen Hogwarts at Christmas.

When he saw it for the first time, Harry was surprised and said, "Great."

Inside the hall, Professor Flitwick was using his wand to create small golden balls and hanging them on the fir trees, while Professor McGonagall was using her wand to create red ribbons and decorating the entire hall.

Above the auditorium, among the countless candles, there were many small bats, flying between the candles.

The auditorium was particularly warm under the glow of the fire.

Charlotte sat at the dining table and had the elf bring her a Yorkshire pudding.

Harry and Ron sat beside him and said, "That was great, I think Hogsmeade will be even better tomorrow."

Chapter 167: Rumor!

Charlotte and the other two planned to go to Hogsmeade tomorrow. Christmas was the day after tomorrow, and tomorrow was also the day George and Fred were going to Hogsmeade.

It just so happened that the three of them could go through the passage under the Whomping Willow and wander around Hogsmeade with George and Fred.

Ron whispered, "Oh, Harry, keep your voice down, in case Professor McGonagall... "

Before he could finish, Professor McGonagall's voice sounded from behind: "Mr. Weasley, I hope you are not thinking of any good ideas. You have already been deducted ten points by the college this semester."

Ron pouted and turned to look at McGonagall awkwardly: "Oh, I'm sorry, Professor McGonagall, I don't have any good ideas."

"That's the best!" Mag looked at Charlotte and said, "Charlotte, I hope you can get a good grade in the final exam."

After Christmas, the final exam was coming up soon. Ron and Harry immediately understood the type of questions McGonagall asked, and both showed embarrassed and frustrated expressions on their faces.

"Of course, Professor McGonagall."

"Harry, I hope you don't have any good ideas." McGonagall said. She didn't want to lose points because of these little guys.

Gryffindor, known for its courage, is the headquarters of troublemakers.

Professor McGonagall did not stay for long. Ron looked at Professor McGonagall's back carefully.

"We won't be discovered tomorrow, right?"

Charlotte shrugged: "Maybe."

Harry whispered, "Don't worry, I have the invisibility cloak, we can sneak over there."

The next day soon came.

Ron and Harry lived in the same dormitory, so they got up and got ready quickly. The three of them met in the restaurant, and after eating, they secretly went to the passage of the Whomping Willow together.

Harry took out his invisibility cloak and covered himself and Ron. Harry said to Charlotte, "Charlotte, come in."

Charlotte smiled and said, "Oh, no thanks."

As he spoke, he waved his wand and became invisible.

"If I'm invisible, I don't need an invisibility cloak."

Ron's voice came from the air: "Oh my God, Charlotte, your magic power is stronger than Professor Flitwick! I heard from Hermione that the spell that can make you invisible is very powerful!"

Harry also said in admiration: "This is much more convenient than the invisibility cloak!"

Having said that, Harry still likes the Invisibility Cloak the most. After all, it is a gift left to him by his father.

After turning invisible, the three of them headed for Hogsmeade.

Hogsmeade is very lively at Christmas. There are not only many Hogwarts students, but also many wizards wearing strange robes.

Charlotte even saw a wizard wearing a robe as thick as tree bark, with a branch on his head with a bird standing on it, and his head was covered with bird droppings.

I have to say, the magical world is really strange.

It seems that wizards don't care much about it. At least they can't clean their bodies every day like Muggles.

Most wizards look messy.

After Charlotte and the other two came out of Honeydukes Candy Store, Harry suggested going to the Hog's Head Tavern.

"The last time we came here, the Hog's Head was closed. Sirius told me that the butterbeer at the Hog's Head was delicious."

"Yes, the owner is weird." Ron said on the side.

He heard from George and Fred that the old man was very strange and had a bad temper.

Charlotte had finished her last cup of butterbeer, so she agreed to their suggestion and went to the Hog's Head Tavern together.

The Hog's Head Tavern was still open today. Charlotte, Ron, and Harry lowered their heads, pushed the door, and walked into the Hog's Head Tavern. The Hog's Head Tavern was indeed a famous tavern in Hogsmeade, and the wizards inside were very mixed.

A bunch of wizards sitting together, and most of them were very particular, made the air in the tavern a little muddy.

The three of them lowered their heads, trying not to attract other people's attention.

Fortunately, there will be many Hogwarts students in Hogsmeade during Christmas, and even some Hogwarts students are sitting in the Hog's Head Tavern. Few wizards pay attention to Charlotte and the other two.

Aberforth was standing at the counter, filling another wizard's cup with beer. Charlotte knocked on the counter, and Aberforth turned around and handed the beer to another wizard. He looked at Charlotte and said, "Butterbeer?"

Charlotte nodded: "These are my friends."

Harry and Ron looked at Charlotte, and Ron asked, "Charlotte, do you come to Hogsmeade often? You actually know this ancient..."

Charlotte coughed, blocking out what Ron was about to say next, and said, "Of course."

Aberforth didn't care about Ron and Harry. He brought out triple butterbeer, still looking gloomy, "I will tell Dumbledore about what the second-year students at Hogwarts said about Hogsmeade."

When Harry and Ron heard this, their faces turned pale.

Charlotte smiled indifferently and said, "I will also tell Headmaster Dumbledore the truth about you selling draft butter beer to the second graders."

As she spoke, Charlotte picked up three glasses of beer, found a corner and sat down with Harry and Ron.

"¨Oh, he's not really going to tell Dumbledore about this, is he?"

Charlotte shook her head: "Don't worry, no one saw us along the way, who would know we were here?"

He said, taking a sip of his butterbeer.

This thing is really good.

In addition to drinking butterbeer, Charlotte had another purpose for coming to the Hog's Head Tavern.

What is published in the Daily Prophet is usually what the Ministry of Magic wants the public to see. Although it is not published openly, the Daily Prophet already has the meaning of being the eyes and ears of the Ministry of Magic.

If you want to find out the latest news from the Ministry of Magic, the Hog's Head Tavern is the most suitable choice besides the Leaky Cauldron.

Sure enough, as soon as Charlotte sat down, she heard the wizards next door talking about Voldemort.

"The mysterious man hasn't appeared for a long time. Has he disappeared?" The wizard just started to speak, and the green-robed wizard opposite him lowered his voice: "Shh, keep your voice down, be careful not to be heard by him."

"I heard that it seems to have disappeared. The Ministry of Magic breathed a sigh of relief."

The gray-robed wizard took a sip of wine and said, "That's good. Anyway, I don't want to be worried all day long."

The green-robed wizard laughed, and his voice sounded very strange: "Who said it wasn't?"

Charlotte took a sip of butter beer. Ron leaned over and asked, "Oh my God, has the mysterious man disappeared again? Why didn't I see this news in the Daily Prophet?"

"There is some information that the Ministry of Magic is reluctant to release, but who is the person who killed Voldemort, um, I mean the mysterious man?" Harry asked.

Ron's eyes widened: "He will become the second legend in the wizarding world!"

"Who knows?" Charlotte responded, and the green-robed wizard next to him continued, "The two dark lords have been quiet recently, and London has been peaceful for a long time."

"Recently, an Auror went to Nurmengard and found that there was no one inside, but they did not dare to lock anyone in."

Chapter 168: Dementors!

“But they dare not lock anyone in there. After all, that is where Grindelwald once stayed.” The green-robed wizard laughed twice.

The gray-robed wizard nodded. He was not as afraid of Grindelwald as Voldemort was. There was a glimmer of regret in his eyes.

Grindelwald’s greatest charm is not that he is as frightening as Voldemort, but that he makes people submit to him.

Even if Grindelwald was locked up or disappeared, there would still be a lot of people who believed in him.

Most of the conversations in the tavern were about the Dark Lord, of course there were also a few people talking about potions, wizard robes and so on.

Charlotte finished the last sip of her butterbeer.

Almost all the information has been integrated.
