The Hogwarts Express slowly stopped, and students filed out of the train and arrived at Hogsmeade Station.
Standing on the dilapidated platform, the little wizards shivered and couldn't help but want to retreat to the warm train.
The weather was so cold... It was raining continuously, and the platform was covered with ice, which made the students' bones stiff.
Hogsmeade is indeed a small station. Apart from a road sign, there is no shelter from the wind and rain. Calling it a "ruin" is an understatement.
Luofu raised his head and glanced at the gray sky. The heavy rain still showed no sign of abating. He had no choice but to raise his arms, and the downpour above his head suddenly stopped.
Although it stopped raining, the weather was still very cold.
Shirley tightened her thick cloak, curled her hands in her sleeves, waved her wand stiffly and awkwardly, and nodded her and Rolf's heads.
White smoke suddenly appeared from the boy's hair, and his body became warm.
Shirley stretched her body like a cat, but accidentally stepped on the ice, and her feet suddenly slipped. Fortunately, Luofu held the girl's waist in time to prevent her from falling.
Shirley steadied herself, thanked her, and carefully raised her wand and pointed it at Hermione.
White smoke was also rising from Hermione's body, and she was looking up at the sky.
It was still raining heavily all around, except for the heads of a few of them. The raindrops did not fall, but instead bounced upwards.
Hermione could conjure an umbrella to protect her clothes from the rain, but she couldn't bounce the rain off as easily as Rove.
She had seen the boy perform this magic several times, and now that she saw it again, she still found it very magical.
"Why do you have so many weird magics?" Hermione couldn't help but ask.
"Secret." Luofu smiled mysteriously at her, stretched out his two fingers, and pinched the rain curtain in the sky, attracting a large amount of rain out of thin air.
The rainwater condensed into crystal clear water drops, jumping on the young man's fingertips, as if they had just been picked from the lotus leaves after the rain.
Hermione stared at the water drops and said viciously: "I will know sooner or later!"
"Why don't you two make a bet..." Neville whispered on the side.
Just as Rolf was about to nod, Hermione had already waved her hand and said, "Betting is not good... I quit!"
"..."
Luofu sighed slightly, and the water droplets exploded in his palm, turning into a puddle of rainwater. After a while, it condensed into an ice flower.
It's just that the ice flower was particularly ugly, and it looked a bit miserable...Rolf couldn't bear to look at it, so he threw it on the ground, but Shirley bent down and picked it up.
Luo Fu asked strangely: "Why did you pick up such an ugly ice flower?"
The girl with the ponytail wiped the dust on the ice flower, raised a bright smile, and said softly: "It's very beautiful. If you don't want it, I want it."
Luo Fu laughed dumbly and said: "Yin and Yang are weird, right?"
The girl with the ponytail smiled and didn't refute. She carefully put the ice flower in her pocket, thinking about asking Professor McGonagall... what magic could keep it intact and preserve it forever.
"All first-year students, come here!" A familiar voice suddenly sounded.
Hagrid's burly figure appeared on the path. He held an oil lamp in his left hand and a strong pink umbrella in his right hand. At his feet was a delicate and timid big dog... Yaya.
The new students all walked towards Hagrid. They had to brave the heavy rain and go through the traditional trip across the lake, but taking a boat in this weather was a disaster.
Students in second grade and above walked along a muddy road towards the Yeqi carriage.
"Good evening, Rolf." Ginny pulled Luna closer and waved hello.
The little girl soon noticed something was wrong. She put away her umbrella, inserted the tip of the umbrella into the mud beside her, used it as a crutch, and then asked in surprise:
"It's not raining above your heads."
Many little wizards raised their heads after hearing Ginny's words, noticed this magical scene... and then started talking about it.
"It's just a little magic." Luofu smiled and asked, "Did you have a good time in Egypt?"
During the summer vacation, Mr. Weasley won the Daily Prophet's annual Galleons Award, receiving seven hundred Galleons.
The whole family went to Egypt to visit their eldest son Bill, who was "robbing graves" there.
Then... the Weslai family, who only had one galleons in their treasury, consumed a huge sum of seven hundred galleons in one summer.
One thing to say, it's strange that Weiss' family is not poor.
"Egypt is great. There are relics left by ancient wizards everywhere." Ginny said excitedly: "Bill took us to all the pyramids... and I also brought you gifts."
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
Ginny took out a few insect mummies made of scarabs from her pocket and handed them to Rove and the others. These things were hung on the bedside and were said to ward off evil spirits.
Hanging the corpse of a dung beetle to ward off evil spirits, right...Rolf wanted to complain.
"I also brought you a gift." The young man flipped his wrist, took out two obsidian-polished amulets, and handed them to Ginny and Luna.
Luna was a little listless. After taking the amulet, she put it to her ear, tapped it gently, listened to the crisp sound, then stared at the boy with gray eyes and said:
"Rolf, thank you for the amulet. I suddenly feel much better."
Luof glanced at the girl's pale face, frowned and asked, "Luna, you don't look very comfortable?"
"Luna was under the influence of the dementors," Ginny explained.
"People with painful memories will be more affected." Luofu took out a large piece of chocolate, handed it over, and said softly: "Eat some of this, it will make you feel much better."
"Harry fainted. I think Professor Black also asked him to eat some chocolate. Is this thing really useful?" Ginny asked curiously:
"I mean...this is not just ordinary chocolate, but is there some magic potion in it?"
"No, nothing is added, it's just ordinary chocolate." Luofu explained with a smile:
"Chocolate itself is a special medicine that can improve the negative effects of dementors."
Taking chocolate can improve a bad mood because of this characteristic... For those who have been affected by dementors, chocolate is the best antidote.
Of course, chocolate is only a short-term remedy.
Several people quickly came to the carriage and climbed into it. The Thestral started driving, pulling the carriage along the muddy road, running all the way east towards Hogwarts Castle.
When passing the school gate, you can still see two tall, hooded dementors standing at the door.
They stretched their necks again and tried to inhale, just like old smokers inhaling second-hand smoke.
The carriage drove all the way to the castle and everyone got out of the carriage, including Sirius.
After he jumped off the carriage, he stood at the gate of the castle, standing with his hands behind his hands, looking up, unwilling to look back for a long time.
Sirius, who always had a smile on his face, was like a wanderer who had been away from home for many years and suddenly returned to his hometown, with a look of fatigue and confusion on his face for no reason.
Sirius once thought that he would never see Hogwarts again, just like he would never see James and Lily again.
The oak door creaked open, and a middle-aged man walked out. He was wearing a black robe, with a pair of hollow black eyes, greasy black hair, and a big aquiline nose.
The two middle-aged men looked at each other. Their gazes were like magnets, attracting each other and unable to look away.
this moment,
It seems like a glance for thousands of years.
