Magical Studies at Hogwarts

This year at the Burrow has been relaxing and depressing.

It's easy to understand. No matter what it looks like outside, as long as the Weasleys are in the Burrow, there will never be a lack of laughter here, even if the two people who provided most of the laughter in the past are not here now.

However, today's severe situation still affects this happy place. Mr. Weasley's promotion is a good thing and a bad thing. After all, he has to go to work and face danger every day. And Bill, plus he has been working in the Diagon Alley store

This is true for the twins in it, Charlie, who has not returned to England, and Percy, who has not yet had contact with his family.

Mrs. Weasley was very worried. Although she would never show her vulnerable side, the clock that never left her body, representing the safety of the Weasley family, still said it all.

Harry didn't notice the tension hidden in the relaxed atmosphere of the Burrow. Maybe Hermione did, but she wouldn't tell Harry and Ron about it.

Being able to spend the rest of the vacation peacefully and playing Garden Quidditch with Ron, Hermione, and Ginny every day was already heaven to Harry.

It's much better than when I was at the Dursley's.

Of course, he still knew what was going on outside. The Daily Prophet would publish some bad news every day, and when Mr. Weasley and Bill came back, they would also share some news that had not been published in the newspaper. In addition,

The members of the Order of the Phoenix who visited the Burrow from time to time clearly told Harry that the terror caused by Voldemort and his followers was still sweeping the entire United Kingdom.

This did not change on his birthday.

"Two more dementor attacks have occurred." Lupine, who specially sent Harry a birthday cake, hugged him and said in a chat with others, "There are also those who were in the north a few days ago.

They didn’t shy away from Muggles at all. The Ministry of Magic simply didn’t have enough manpower. Scrimgeour sent them to those big cities. When I arrived..."

"Okay, let's talk about something else, Remus..." Mrs. Weasley said with a frown, handing a piece of cake to Lupin, but before she could finish speaking, Fleur took over.

"Remember Florin Fusco?" said Fleur.

"The one who runs the ice cream shop in Diagon Alley?" Harry asked, "What happened to him?"

"According to the current signs, he should have been kidnapped and is in the store." Fu Rong said.

"Why? He's a nice guy. He always treats us to free ice cream, even though it's very small..." Ron stopped mid-sentence under Mrs. Weasley's glare.

At this time, Mr. Weasley said: "Speaking of Diagon Alley, it seems that Ollivander is also missing."

"Ollivander from Ollivander's Wand Shop?" Ginny said in surprise.

"Yes, that's him. There are no signs of a struggle. No one knows whether he left on his own or was kidnapped by those guys."

"Who should new students buy wands from?" Harry asked.

"Cedric is there. He worked in the wand shop after graduation, and Amos had a few arguments with him about this." Mr. Weasley said, "He is not good at making new wands, but he should be able to sell new wands.

It’s still okay…”

While eating the cake, Harry listened to them chatting about things outside, with mixed feelings in his heart. Cedric knew that all the outstanding graduates of Hufflepuff, except for...that person, had a lot of experience during the Triwizard Tournament.

The Finest at Hogwarts.

And...Qiu's boyfriend...

The birthday night passed by just like that. Everyone was worried about something. Although the laughter continued, the atmosphere was still a bit depressing. But by the next day, this depression disappeared.

Harry received a letter from Hogwarts, and he was chosen as captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team!

"Great! Now your status is the same as that of a prefect. You can also use the prefect's private bathroom and other things." Hermione gave her heartfelt blessing.

"Harry, that's so cool! You are my captain now! Of course, if you let me play... hahaha..." Ron happily played with the badge representing the captain and began to dream about the new semester.

Good life.

"Come on, Ron, you suck!" Ginny broke Ron's fantasy mercilessly, and the two immediately started arguing.

No one tried to persuade me, and no one started a fight. This is a normal thing in the Burrow.

"We can't delay it any longer. We have to go to Diagon Alley to buy you things for the new semester." Mrs. Weasley grabbed a Weasley with one hand, pulled them aside, and said seriously, "As long as

If Arthur doesn't work overtime on Saturday, we will go there on that day!"

"In this situation, I won't go there without him!"

Faced with Mrs. Weasley's serious attitude, Ron even made a joke, but was immediately scolded and kept honest for several days.

On Saturday morning, Xu was finally going to Diagon Alley. Everyone was a little nervous, fearing that the plan would be ruined because Mr. Weasley worked overtime.

Fortunately, this did not happen.

Towards evening, a car stopped outside the Burrow. Harry, Hermione, Ron and Ginny all wrapped themselves in big cloaks and got in one after another at the urging of Mrs. Weasley.

Got the car.

"It's great. This car is so spacious!" Ron stretched out his limbs comfortably. He was very tall now and usually had to shrink down in the Burrow.

"Don't get used to it, this is just for Harry." Mr. Weasley, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head and said, "He is under first-level protection now. When he gets to the Leaky Cauldron, there will be other security measures."

The car drove very fast, even faster than the Knight Bus, but it was more comfortable and would not roll around in the car due to sudden braking. Arriving at the Leaky Cauldron smoothly, they got off the car one by one and saw each other.

When it comes to what Mr. Weasley calls "other security measures".

"Hagrid! Long time no see!" Harry greeted warmly, and Hagrid hugged him directly and held him in his arms for a while before letting him go.

"The Ministry of Magic was originally going to send a group of Aolo, but Dumbledore said that I would be enough." Hagrid hugged the others enthusiastically and called them in, "Okay, let's go in...

"

The Leaky Cauldron was very deserted. Old Tom was the only one standing behind the bar. He didn't use the dirty rag to wipe the table, he just lay on it in boredom.

When they saw Harry and the others coming in, they just raised their heads and said hello, then lay back down again.

"In this situation, you know, no one dares to come out..." Hagrid deliberately lowered his voice, although it was of no use.

They walked through the bar and came to the small courtyard with a trash can. Hagrid knocked on the wall with his pink umbrella, and the wall rolled to both sides, revealing a winding path.

Passing through another doorway, they finally arrived at Diagon Alley.
