Hogwarts Emerald

It was already evening when Dumbledore took Ada back to St. Catchpole Village, and Newt and Tina left them to have dinner. Perhaps because of meeting Dumbledore, Newt was very enthusiastic about sex, and he also shared some of his travel experiences with Ada.

What Newt had seen and heard, as well as the magical animals he talked about, fascinated Ada, who had never seen much of the world. Ada even began to look forward to the Care of Magical Creatures class next semester.

St. Catchpole was extremely quiet at night, and Ada was walking on the road talking to Dumbledore about Quirrell. Ada feels that Dumbledore's wisdom is equivalent to Einstein among Muggles. He can help her solve her confusion about Quirrell, and by the way, he can also remind Dumbledore to pay attention to Quirrell.

Ada told Dumbledore everything about Quirrell's behavior in the Leaky Cauldron and her own thoughts. She continued: "Professor, do you think this Quirrell is strange? I always think he is the same as Foley. I'm holding back to make a big news come out."

"It's Professor Quirrell, Ada. He will be your Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher for the next school year." Dumbledore corrected, "But Quirinas's behavior is indeed weird, and it is normal for you to have such thoughts. .”

"Am I too suspicious? Quirrell...Does Professor Quirrell really just look weird?" Ada was slightly shaken by her own thoughts.

After experiencing Foley and Cecil, Ada was full of distrust, and even a little prejudiced, towards the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. It's also because these two seniors dug too deep a hole, burying Ada in every hole.

Dumbledore gently touched Ada's head, like a loving elder, and said: "On the contrary, there is nothing wrong with your findings and your ideas, because I think so too."

"When did you find out that Quirrell might have a problem?" Ada wanted to know how Dumbledore found out and whether he had made any preparations.

"You still have to call Quirinus professor." Dumbledore corrected Ada's title again, and then continued, "I can't say that I know every student, but for a student with a smart mind like him, I It’s still very impressive, so his abnormality cannot escape my eyes.”

"I'm also trying to understand you. For example, you definitely want to tell the Weasley twins about my judgment now, right?" Dumbledore asked with a smile, and then added, "I'm useless Legilimency!”

"Indeed." Ada simply admitted Dumbledore's conjecture, "Then how are you going to deal with Quirrell...er, Professor Quirrell..."

"I'm fully prepared. This will be a great plan." Speaking of this, Dumbledore changed his tone, "Actually, I hope Quirinas can take the initiative to come to me, so that It can save a lot of trouble, and I can also help him solve problems.”

"You seem to like giving others a chance to change?" Ada asked puzzledly. Ask yourself, if Ada had Dumbledore's power, then she would definitely kill decisively and not think about giving others another chance.

Dumbledore raised his head, looked at the night sky and said slowly: "This is another story. This story is very long. I will tell you next time I have a chance."

"By the way, after school starts, I may have some things to trouble you, so enjoy the rest of your vacation!" After saying these words, Dumbledore directly apparated away from here, leaving Ada who was still lingering. Staring at the night sky in a daze.

Is that long story Dumbledore told about Voldemort? Or is it related to Grindelwald?

The lights were still on at the Burrow, and in the living room Percy was chasing the twins as Fred and George passed his prefect badges to each other, Ron and Ginny were clapping their hands and laughing, and Mr. Weasley was kindly Look at them.

Mrs. Weasley was standing at the door, calling Ada's name softly. The breeze blew gently through the garden, and the girl's steps were light. This night contained too much tenderness in the world.

On Wednesday morning, all the children in the family were woken up early by Mrs. Weasley. Today, everyone is going to Diagon Alley to buy school supplies. Although I don't know what solution Mr. Weasley came up with, it is obvious that he solved everything.

Everyone lined up to go to Diagon Alley through the fireplace. There was still a lot of Floo powder in the flower pots. Mrs. Weasley and Ada would buy Floo powder and come back. They usually used the Floo network more often.

Everyone thought they had woken up very early, but when everyone arrived at Diagon Alley, the wide street was already overcrowded. Adult wizards, underage wizards, and all kinds of people shuttled through the cobblestone streets.

Mr. Weasley took Percy to the Eela Owl Shop. He would buy an owl for Percy as a gift for Percy to get the prefect badge. Mrs. Weasley took the twins and Ron to buy robes. The twins' robes no longer fit, while Ada took little Ginny to a second-hand bookstore.

Ada squatted on the ground and carefully selected second-hand books. Ginny read to her from the book list. She was a regular customer of this second-hand bookstore, but unfortunately the owner never gave her any discounts. Ada first picked out a copy of "Dark Powers: A Guide to Self-Defense" written by Quentin Trimble, which Ron needed.

Of course there is more than this book on the freshman's shopping list, but books such as "Standard Spells: Elementary" and "Elementary Transfiguration Guide" can be cobbled together by Ron's brothers.

As for the teaching materials needed for Defense Against the Dark Arts, there is no way to get them together. It can only be blamed on the fact that the professors of Defense Against the Dark Arts are only disposable and do not last long. Professors change every year, and each professor chooses different teaching materials. Even if you want to, you can't get it together.

Ada started picking out the books the twins would use from a pile of old books. She had already bought her own. Ada went to work in the Leaky Cauldron every day and could buy everything in her spare time.

After a while, Mrs. Weasley brought the twins and Ron to the second-hand bookstore, but only she and Ron walked in. Fred and George did not follow their mother in, but waved to Ada at the door and asked her to come out.

Ada handed Ginny and the selected books to Mrs. Weasley before walking out of the second-hand bookstore. Ada patted the dust on her hands and said, "Why don't you go to the store? After all, I'm choosing your books."

"Dad took Percy to the Eela Owl Shop..." Fred said solemnly,

"Maybe also buy Percy a new robe." George continued after his twin brother's words.

Ada nodded to show that she knew about it and said, "So, what do you want to express?"

"Everything Ron owns is old, the robes Bill wore, the old books we used..." Fred sighed.

"Maybe even the wands have to be used. You should have seen Charlie's old wands." George's eyes were always looking at Ron in the second-hand store.

Ada stretched out her hands to touch the twins' foreheads. Are they sick today? They are actually thinking so much about their little brother. The twins slapped her hand away and said in unison: "We are both fine. We are not sick, but we just feel a little uncomfortable."

Enrollment of freshmen is often the most expensive. In addition, Percy has become a prefect this year and needs some rewards. Considering the financial situation of the Weasley family, this year is indeed a very difficult year.

Poor little Ron is neither the oldest nor the youngest child, and he is not as good as Percy. Among so many children, Ron is the one who is most likely to be ignored, so he probably really wants them all this year. Use the old one.

"What do you two want to buy him? A new robe or a new wand?" Ada was also looking at Ron. "I suggest it is better to buy a wand. Using an old wand will affect his learning."

Fred and George nodded wildly. They had the same idea as Ada. Fred said sadly: "But there is another problem, that is, we have no money."

"It's not that there is no money, but it's just a little bit short..." George also put on a mask of pain. To prove that it was really just a little bit short, he extended his thumb and index finger to make a gesture.
