Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

"What, you're going to France?" After Kyle finished speaking, everyone at the table looked over.

"Yeah." Kyle nodded, "What's wrong, is there a problem?"

"No, not really." Chris shook his head, and just when he was about to say something, a sound like an explosion suddenly interrupted him.

"Mom, we're back."

Bill and Charlie walked in from the garden.

"Kyle is here too, long time no see." Charlie waved his hand.

"Long time no see." Kyle said, waving his wand and turning the stone next to him into two chairs.

"Thank you." After the two sat down, they asked, "What were you talking about just now?"

"Some plans for the future." Kyle said, "I'm going to France."

"Looking for Connor?"

How could Bill, who had obtained the twelve-subject certificate, guess Kyle's idea almost immediately?

After hearing what he said, the others immediately reacted...Yes, Connor is in France now, so it's not difficult to understand why Kyle wants to go there.

"Yeah."

Similarly, Kyle did not deny it and nodded, saying, "It just so happens that I have nothing to do now, so I still have some time."

Since the incident at Godric's Hollow, the Death Eaters have not made any major moves. Although I don't know what they are planning, there is no point in being anxious about such things. It is better to do something of your own while the situation is calm now.

In addition, Professor McGonagall's meaning at Hogwarts is very clear. If Dumbledore has not returned by Halloween, he must show up again.

But it is only the beginning of September now, and it is still a long way from Halloween.

There is no movement from the Death Eaters, and Dumbledore's mission is not urgent. There is nothing important to do, so Kyle thought of going to France.

"It's okay to go to France, but have you thought about how to do it?" Charlie took a sip of pumpkin soda, "It's best not to let other people know, otherwise, the Death Eaters will probably go to trouble you."

"Yeah." Chris was also a little worried, "France is not like here. Even if we want to support you, we can't get there in a short time, and even the news we receive is delayed."

When wizards go to other countries, it's not just a matter of using an Apparition, but there are very cumbersome procedures.

Because no matter which country's Ministry of Magic is, there is a very complete set of equipment to detect Apparition. If you force your way in, you will be discovered by the other Ministry of Magic as soon as you land, and then the Aurors will come to hunt you down.

In fact, this matter is somewhat related to Newt.

Before Newt became famous, although the Ministry of Magic also strictly checked this kind of situation, if there was a special situation, everyone turned a blind eye, especially the wizards who had connections in the local area, basically just said hello and went.

Until that person showed up with a box, everything changed.

The weight of the crime of illegal entry began to soar, and no one dared to be perfunctory.

Of course, there is one exception.

That is, the opponent is strong enough, such as the battle between Voldemort and Dumbledore in Austria some time ago.

This incident caused a lot of noise at the time, but no Ministry of Magic in any country along the way came out to accuse them of illegal entry or abuse of magic.

They all chose to pretend not to see it until the end of the matter and then came out to quietly finish it.

However, this is a special case after all, not everyone can imitate it, including when Connor went to France, it was Fleur who accompanied her to handle various procedures.

Fleur described this in detail in the letter to Bill, as if she was intentionally teaching them what to do after going there.

"The most important thing is that we are still not sure whether there are Death Eaters hiding in the Department of Magical Transportation." Mr. Weasley sighed, "If they reveal your whereabouts..."

"You can rest assured about this issue." Kyle said with a smile, "Now no matter where I go, the Ministry of Magic can't track me."

When saying this, Kyle was very confident.

The monitoring methods of the Ministry of Magic are nothing more than conventional methods such as Apparition, Portkeys, and Floo Network.

But Kyle, who has the help of Phoenix, doesn't care about these at all. Phoenix's innate magic cannot be tracked by wizards, just like the restrictions of Hogwarts cannot restrain Fawkes.

And he didn't plan to go to France through official channels from the beginning.

Not only will the British Ministry of Magic not know, but the French side will also not know.

Although France is far away from here and it is difficult for the Death Eaters to reach out, Kyle still thinks it is better to be cautious.

After all, he directly or indirectly killed seventy Death Eaters and one of Voldemort's generals, Bellatrix Lestrange. It is always right to be careful.

"Don't worry, I know what's going on." Kyle waved his hand and took the initiative to reveal the topic.

He looked at Bill, "Where did you go? Why did you come back so late?"

"Charlie is checking for traces of Death Eaters around Grimmauld Place." Bill said, "After all, it is the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. No matter what, we must ensure that it is safe enough."

"As for me... I contacted a few former colleagues."

"Your colleagues..." Kyle thought for a moment, "Grillotts goblins?"

Bill used to work as a curse breaker at Gringotts, but after Voldemort's comeback, he resigned and joined the Order of the Phoenix, and never looked for another job in between.

So thinking about it, his colleague can only be a goblin.

"I wanted to ask just now, is there any situation at Gringotts?" Mr. Weasley looked at Bill nervously.

"I can't tell for the time being." Bill shook his head, "Although someone told me that the Death Eaters are indeed contacting goblins, Gringotts openly refuses to cooperate with them."

"Of course." Charlie took a bite of the cutlet, "If the goblins cooperate with the Death Eaters, I'm afraid their underground vaults will be half empty the next day. Those goblins are very cunning, and even if they do this, they won't let others know."

"That's what I said... But mom, should we take the money out of Gringotts?" Fred turned to look at Mrs. Weasley, "I always feel that it's not safe to keep it in the goblin's vault."

"Just manage your own gold coins..." Mrs. Weasley said with a bit of embarrassment. "Don't worry about the family affairs, I will take care of it."

In the past two years when they lived at No. 12 Grimmauld Place, they did save some money because they didn't have to worry about food expenses, and most of the children had graduated.

Then the money was used to buy Harry a coming-of-age gift.

If you think about it carefully, Gringotts belongs to the Weasley family's vault, and there may be only a few silver coins left. If the Death Eaters like it, it doesn't matter if they take it.

Of course, Mrs. Weasley would never say these words in front of the children, and she covered it up after a few vague words.

But Kyle and Chris didn't care much about this matter.

Kyle didn't put the money in Gringotts at all. He did have a vault there, which he opened before going to Hogwarts, mainly for novelty.

At that time, he remembered that he put three Sickles and nine Knuts in the vault.

Then the money has been kept until now and has not been moved... Well... Maybe it has been moved. It has been so long that Kyle can't remember clearly, but what is certain is that the total amount of money will never exceed one Galleon.

As for Chris... He really doesn't care, mainly because he knows goblins.

If goblins really cooperate with Death Eaters, it means that Gringotts is on Voldemort's side.

First of all, the Ministry of Magic will definitely not allow such a thing to happen. Even if there is only such a signal, Aurors will probably take over Gringotts by force.

In addition, no one is willing or dares to put their Galleons in the pockets of Death Eaters. It is easy to put them, but it will be difficult to take them out at that time.

So once such signs appear, taking the money away in advance is the best way to solve this problem. The goblins in Gringotts will not make such a low-level mistake.

They can only and must remain neutral like St. Mungo's.

And with the strength and means of goblins, wizards are not willing to go to war with them unless there are special circumstances.

There is no need for this.

…

Everyone chatted like this, and finally finished the dinner after more than an hour.

Mrs. Weasley and several children brought the empty plates into the Burrow. During this time, Fred and Charlie used their wands to command the plates to fight... bumping into each other to see whose plate was stronger. After being discovered by Mrs. Weasley, the two hurriedly used their wands to repair the broken plates.

Kyle and Chris wanted to help, but after being rejected, they returned to their own homes.

At this time, Kyle realized again that he had not been back for a long time.

As soon as he opened the door, the old cat-nives came over and looked at him for a while with his head tilted.

"Dad, why do I feel that Tom has gained weight again." Kyle frowned.

Tom now looks like a walking carpet, crawling there in a big area.

But Kyle forgot that cat-nives are a very smart magical animal. The intuitive performance is that they can understand the words of wizards.

So Kyle felt that his feet were crushed by something.

"There's nothing we can do about it." Chris said helplessly, "You haven't been home for the past few years, and we've been busy with work, so we don't have time to take care of it."

"Shouldn't it be getting thinner?" Kyle didn't understand.

"It will find food for itself." Chris said, "No matter where I hide the jerky, it can always find it and eat it all... And the birds in the nearby woods are almost all caught by it."

"It can still catch birds like this... Oh!"

Kyle felt his foot being pressed again.

"It's easy." Chris said, "No matter what, it's still a catkin, and its hair has grown longer, so it doesn't look that fat."

While talking, Chris had taken off his coat and put it on the hanger beside him.

The tree-guarding ox that Kyle had been carrying with him also crawled out of his chest pocket and jumped onto a potted plant next to the stairs.

This tree-guarding ox was also raised by Kyle since he was a child. Because it is relatively small, it will not be discovered even if it is taken to school.

"When are you going to France?" Chris asked.

"Tomorrow."

"Are you in such a hurry?"

"If I have something to do, I can go a few days later."

"No, it's okay." Chris said, "But you have to promise me that you must always bring Phoenix with you when you get there. If you find something wrong, run away immediately. Don't hesitate."

"Don't worry, I know what to do."

The two chatted for a few more words, and Chris drove Kyle back to the bedroom on the second floor.

Although he hadn't been back for a long time, the room was still clean and dust-free.

Kyle lay on the bed and fell asleep quickly.

This lasted until the next day.

When Kyle got up and went downstairs, Chris had already gone to the Ministry of Magic.

He found a few pieces of toast and ham slices to make a simple sandwich, and got a bunch of cloak grass for Fox.

This herb is one of Fox's favorite foods, and it is also the main material for making Bafe's brain wakener and vitality potion. It is more expensive than mandrake.

However, this is a cross-border trip after all, and Fox has helped him a lot before, so he has to be generous once.

After Fox was full, Kyle touched the feathers on its tail.

"Please."

Fox, who had just eaten a big meal, naturally had no objection, and spread his wings and grabbed Kyle's shoulders.

...

I don't know if it was because the journey was too far, Kyle felt that the time he spent spinning this time was longer than before.

Even Kyle, who had gradually gotten used to the Phoenix's way of traveling, was a little overwhelmed.

In a trance, Kyle felt his feet standing on solid ground again, and his ears could hear a buzzing sound again.

It was really a buzzing sound, because he couldn't understand those words.

Kyle took a long time to slowly open his eyes.

At this time, he had appeared in a small alley on the streets of Paris, France, and the busy streets were not far ahead.

The street was full of pedestrians coming and going, and no one noticed him, the uninvited guest who suddenly visited.

Kyle walked from the alley to the main street, and then he suddenly realized that he seemed to be a little inconsiderate.

He didn't know the way.

This was normal, after all, it was his first time to France... Well, the second time, but last time Nico gave him a direct ticket, so he didn't need to find the way at all, and went directly to the destination.

But this time was different. Although Fox could Apparate, it didn't know where the specific address was. Even if Kyle told it, it didn't know how to get there, so the place where they appeared was almost purely random.

This was embarrassing.

What's even more embarrassing is that Kyle's French is not very good. He learned it for a while during the Triwizard Tournament, but when he got here, he found that it was not enough because he couldn't say the name of the address in French.

This also led to him not being able to ask for directions.

"Do you want to use magic?" Kyle hesitated.

He didn't know the French Ministry of Magic, and he was not sure if the Aurors here would notice if he used magic rashly.

But he couldn't go back without magic.

Just when Kyle was in a dilemma, there was a little movement in the alley he had just come out of.

A person staggered out from the other end. The other party seemed to have been drinking in the bar all night and could only barely stay awake.

"There is a way." Kyle immediately turned back and blocked the man with his body.

"Excuse me, where is the triangular building?" He asked in slow French.

"Well, get out..." The man raised his head in a daze and seemed to curse.

But the next second, his eyes widened and he was mostly sober.

He saw a leopard that was almost as tall as a human?

It should be a leopard, but how could a leopard have six legs.

"Hello, where is the triangular building?"

Kyle asked the question again.

At the same time, the other party came back to his senses.

He did not answer Kyle's question. His numb brain took a full two seconds to remind him that he should scream at this time.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw the leopard's eyes change from orange to purple.

What a charming color, just like his favorite aged wine.

In a daze, the man felt as if he was soaking in a huge wine glass, but how could there be such a big wine glass? He must be dreaming, just like the six-legged leopard he saw just now.

Wait, how many legs does the leopard have?

"Plop..."

Accompanied by the pain caused by the collision, the man suddenly woke up.

He found himself lying on the ground, and there were a group of people around him pointing at him.

"Oh, how did I fall asleep here?" He patted his head, "What a shame, damn Biddy, I will never drink with him for so long again."

He stood up quickly, covered his face, and walked out of the alley quickly as if nothing had happened, as if he had completely forgotten what had just happened... or he regarded it as a dream and subconsciously ignored it.

...
