A cruise ship rushed to the sea with its whistle honking.
On the deck of the ship.
Beautiful women, good wine, good food, faces from both East and West.
Goss was lying on a beach chair on the deck with a contented expression on his face.
"Don't be formal, treat it like your own home, Musashi."
Gauss really didn't regard himself as an outsider at all. He was wearing a beach T-shirt that seemed very strange to the wizard, and was holding a cocktail freshly made by the bartender on the ship.
Musashi ignored him, turned to look at John who was blowing the wind next to him, and asked doubtfully: "Is it really okay to leave in such a high profile?"
"There's nothing wrong with this. This is just a trip." John chuckled. "Gauss is right. You can relax a little, Musashi. After all, we are going to your hometown."
When he mentioned his hometown, Musashi's expression became intriguing.
There is both a timidity about being close to home and a kind of fear and avoidance.
"Looking at your age," John leaned against the guardrail, a seagull landed next to him. "Calculated from Hogwarts, you have only graduated in less than two and a half years."
How could a recent graduate get mixed up with a desperado like Gauss?
Musashi has an untold story.
After hearing this, Gauss raised his hand actively and said: "Give me 10 Galleons, and I will tell you the story of the wandering wizard in the East."
"Deal." John said nonchalantly, "I don't mind using money to get to know someone."
John has never been short of generous money.
This made Gauss's eyes light up.
"I knew it would be good to follow the boss."
He said this with a very honest body waiting for John to pay.
John took out ten galleons from his small bag and threw them to Gauss.
After catching it, Gauss took out five and threw them to Musashi.
"As agreed, one person and one half." Gauss said with a smile, "This matter will start when I am wanted."
Gauss is not a good person. He is a person who gets paid to do things. Basically, as long as he has money, he will do anything.
But one thing is very good, he has the spirit of contract.
How much work do you do for how much you charge.
Of course, if the employer defaults on its debt, he doesn't mind taking care of the employer as well.
It was after a mission that he met Musashi.
The employer had a really big appetite. Gauss helped him solve his mortal enemy, but the employer told the Aurors about him.
Gauss was hunted down by Aurors and finally escaped abroad.
Norway.
There, he met Musashi, who had also left his hometown.
Musashi was wearing a white robe and looked like a homeless puppy.
It is said that Musashi saved Gauss's life. When the Aurors came after him, Musashi pretended that he did not see Gauss hiding behind the trash can and instead gave him a wrong path.
In return, Musashi emptied Gauss's pocket of galleons.
"You don't know how much he can eat," Gauss said with lingering fear, "but I found that we have a common trait, which is the key to cooperation."
Musashi loves money, and he saved Gauss just to make him pay.
However, Gauss, who had no money, had to make an agreement with him that the two of them would cooperate to make money, and each would get half of the money.
Afterwards, Gauss was hired back by John, and Musashi was also brought over.
"I can't tell you that your fate is so wonderful." John said casually, "I remember there is a magic school in your hometown called the Magic Institute?"
"Speaking of which, because of the closed country, Western wizards don't know much about magic."
Musashi's expression darkened and he remembered something.
John glanced at Musashi, looked up, and said calmly: "You should have been educated at a magic institution."
"Yes, but they won't admit me." Musashi closed his eyes and looked back unbearably, "My school uniform is white."
"The school uniforms of the Magic Institute come with a kind of magic. They are initially light red. As the students grow and achieve various factors, the color of the uniforms will change."
Musashi said bitterly: "And the white color means that this student has violated the wizard's code."
Obviously, this is nothing to be proud of.
This memory made Musashi unbearable. He ran away in despair, but now he has to come back again.
It took a toll on his pride.
"No, don't give up," Gauss saw something was wrong and immediately shouted in horror, "You can't even give up money for the sake of self-esteem."
He ran over and put his arms around Musashi's neck, whispering: "How long will it take you to earn those Galleons?"
After listening to Gauss's remarks, Musashi was completely embarrassed.
I'm having a relationship with you, and you're calculating the money with me, right?
John didn't take it seriously, looking at the approaching harbor, he calmly blew the wind.
"A magic place?"
...
Hogwarts seemed unchanged after John left, and something seemed wrong. 33
Slytherin is still so competitive, and Malfoy is still so annoying.
Pansy combed herself into a double ponytail, wearing only a princess dress, and said coquettishly: "Theodore, where should we go on a date?"
Theodore Nott stopped taking notes and looked at Pansy.
Pansy took Theodore's hand and shook it, an action that made Malfoy extremely uncomfortable.
He said with great disgust, "I'm about to vomit."
Pansy heard the movement and glared at Malfoy with a cold look.
Malfoy immediately pretended that nothing had happened, whistling and preparing to find trouble for Harry.
Theodore didn't know what he was thinking, so he excused himself to go to the library to borrow a book and asked Pansy to wait here.
"No, I want to go too." Pansy, who was addicted to pretending to be a sweet girl, protested with a pout.
"Wait for me here!" There was a hint of refusal in Theodore's voice.
Pansy was stunned and watched Theodore leave the auditorium.
After walking out of the auditorium, Theodore walked up the stairs.
He stopped just before reaching the library.
The library was on the fifth floor, and he was on the fourth floor looking toward the corridor on the right.
After confirming that no one was there, he walked to the right.
Walking past the gatekeeper's office, he stopped in front of a door with an eye symbol.
The eyes at the door looked at Theodore, who took out a badge from his pocket and put it on his chest.
As soon as my eyes saw the badge, I looked away again.
Theodore's heart was beating rapidly. He put his hand on the door and pushed it gently.
The door was opened.
Golden text and starry sky come into view.
There was no one inside, so he walked in.
Inside, he searched carefully but didn't find what he wanted.
Finally, he set his sights on the nine doors, came to one of them and opened it.
There is a land of ice and snow over there, and the cold is coming.
Theodore closed the door hastily.
Open the second door, there is a forest over there, with vines and grass blades growing everywhere.
Suddenly, a vine moved and wrapped around Theodore's ankle, almost pulling him in.
Quickly breaking away, Theodore looked at the third door cautiously.
When he opened it, it was dark inside.
And in the darkness, a light lit up.
Theodore looked carefully and saw that it was a shining golden cup.
He wanted to go in, but was pushed open by a force and the door was slammed shut.
"No!"
Theodore hurried over and opened it again. The darkness there disappeared and was replaced by an ocean.
The sea water rushed out and wet Theodore's body.
Not daring to continue opening the fourth door, Theodore hurriedly fled the Star Club.
He took off the badge from his chest and ran to the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor.
Inside, there is a strange envelope.
The words written inside will appear on another letter.
Theodore wrote a sentence inside.
"That thing is in a door."
After finishing writing, he left in a hurry.
Being away for too long can make people suspicious.
Go to the library on the fifth floor and pick up a book on alchemy.
Theodore walked back to the auditorium. When Pansy saw Theodore, she thought he was running back at full speed and said distressedly: "Why are you sweating profusely?"
Theodore wiped the water and said, "It's okay."
On the other side of the auditorium, Malfoy continued to report that Harry was knocked unconscious by his own people in Quidditch.
...
The ship docked in the harbor, and John, like other tourists, had a camera hanging around his neck.
Goss was wearing a bucket hat and board shorts, holding a suitcase in his hand.
Looks very suspicious.
Opening his passport for inspection, John smoothly entered this eastern country.
It was Gauss who was repeatedly inspected, making people wonder if he was carrying any weapons of mass destruction.
After the examination, Gauss ran to John to complain.
"It's over, my dignity has been trampled on." He looked hurt.
Seeing him like this, John said calmly: "Then how much is your dignity worth?"
"If you give me ten Galleons, it will heal my wounds a little. If you give me fifty Galleons, I will treat it as if nothing happened." Gauss revealed his true face.
"I'll give you a hundred galleons, but you throw your dignity aside." John was so wealthy that Gauss immediately lost his dignity.
While walking in this oriental city, John glanced at the man in a trench coat next to the taxi and said, "It seems we are being targeted."
Gauss looked over, as if he were seeing Gallon walking, and flattered John: "Give me the money, and I will kill him for you."
"That should be an Auror, dealing with illegal immigration." John said speechlessly, "I don't have the habit of taking human life lightly."
Musashi's expression changed when he saw the person coming.
The Auror discovered Musashi and walked over.
John calmly turned around and walked in the other direction.
The Auror followed, and the three of them headed in the other direction.
Unfortunately, being unfamiliar with life, they entered a dead end.
The Auror blocked their way from behind. He raised his head and revealed the Auror's face under his hat.
"Akino Musashi, where are you going?"
...
Some people died, but not completely...
