Hogwarts: The Book of Magic

Chapter 16
The time came to mid-August, and the weather in London was already a little bit hot at this time, but even on the hottest day, it was only 25-[-] degrees.

Today Rian is busy cleaning his house. Although he usually uses the "Descaling Charm" to clean the house, there will be a few guests today.

After Lean broke up with Hermione before, he wrote to Hermione frequently.In the letter, Lean once said that he had a library at home.

As soon as Hermione, who was addicted to books, heard this, she wanted to take a look.

However, after Mr. Granger heard about it, he didn't allow Hermione to come. After all, this was Clear Street, the most famous slum in London.

But in the end, after Lean wrote to tell Mr. Granger that his home was in the forest, not on the street, Mr. Granger agreed.

On the one hand, Hermione has been annoying him for a long time, on the other hand, he also wants to see what the home of this kid who writes to Hermione every day is like.

Early this morning, Mr. Granger put the pistol in the drawer into the car, and then, at the urging of Hermione, entered the National Park on the side of Clear Street.

It was also after communicating with Mr. Granger that Lean knew that this forest was a national park.

"Okay, I think it's time for us to get down, and we will need to walk for the rest of the journey." Mr. Granger opened the car door and was the first to jump out of the car.

"Mr. Granger, good morning." Lean slowly walked out of the forest.

He was wearing a relaxed and breathable mountaineering suit. After all, wearing a suit in the forest is the most stupid thing.

Not only Rean, but the Granger family also wore mountaineering suits, and they were family attire.

"Shrinking down quickly"

A spell hit Mr. Granger's car, and the car shrank to the size of a toy car as the Grangers stared dumbfounded.

"Can this... be changed back?" Mr. Granger asked after being silent for a while.

"Of course." Lean picked up the car and put it in his non-marking stretch bag.

"Let's go, my house is not too far from here." Lien beckoned, and then led the way.

Hermione obviously didn't change her mind for a while, and asked, "By the way, such a big car has become so small, what about the extra material?"

"That's not the case. The quality is still the same before and after casting the spell." Lien replied without looking back.

"Then this is even more wrong. Since the mass remains the same, it means that the number of atoms also remains the same, but the volume has obviously become smaller, which means that the gaps between the atoms have become smaller. But...but how does magic work?" What about solving the molecular repulsion between particles?"

It was obvious that Hermione's knowledge base far exceeded her current age.

Mr. Granger and Mrs. Granger looked at each other and shrugged.

Having such a studious daughter is also very stressful. They are just a dentist, so how do they know this.

He wanted to bang his head against the wall every time Hermione ran up to him with a book and asked him a question.

But he can't do this, he still has to understand Hermione's problems well, so as to establish an image of an all-powerful father in Hermione's heart.

However, as Hermione got older, the questions she asked became more and more tricky, so that Mr. Granger couldn't resist.

In the end, Mr. Granger could only say helplessly: "I don't know, maybe there will be in the book."

Since then, Hermione has been reading books like crazy.

"Magic power, magic power temporarily cancels the force between particles, it isolates one particle after another, so that it no longer produces interaction force. But because of the need to offset the force, the magic power will continue to be consumed during this period of time. So Said, no spell is permanent unless you keep feeding it or..."

"Or what?" Lean's words clearly caught Hermione's attention.

"It's nothing, you pretend I didn't say anything." Rin smiled.

Another way is to directly change the rules and forcibly reverse the matter.But the power required by this method is too powerful, and it is useless to say it now.

"Hmph!" Hermione snorted coldly, she was very dissatisfied with Rin's answer.

First, it whetted people's appetites, and then left them there without saying anything.

What a badass.Hermione couldn't help cursing inwardly.

For the rest of the journey, no one spoke.

Hermione was holding her breath and didn't want to talk to Lean; the Grangers were attracted by the scene in the forest.

Half an hour later, amidst the grieving of the Granger family, Lean led them to his hut.

"Welcome to my house as a guest. You are all welcome." Lien bowed and said very gentlemanly.

Mr. Granger looked at the surrounding trees, but there was no sign of a house at all.

"By the way, take these." After speaking, Lean took out a few exquisite brooches from his pocket and handed them to the Granger family.

"This is the passport of my family's defense circle. Don't lose it. If you lose it, you must not step into the circle, or it will be miserable. You must remember it."

Lien gave a warning first, but felt that he almost meant it, and finally added another sentence.

The Granger family seemed to be frightened by Lian's words, and quickly pinned the brooch on their chests.

"follow me."

After Lean finished speaking, he entered a tree first, which made Mr. Granger wipe his eyes fiercely, and he even wondered if he was hallucinating.

Hermione followed Lean into the tree, and Mr. Granger no longer had any doubts about the disappearance of his daughter. He took Mrs. Granger's hand and walked in together.

"Your place...is really nice." Mr. Granger couldn't help sighing as he looked at the decoration that caught his eye.

It's more than good, everything here is expensive, but it's not precious.

This aroused Mr. Granger's interest. After all, Lean was just a homeless child living on Clear Street without parents. Where did he get so much money?
Thinking about it, Mr. Granger asked directly.

Mrs. Granger pinched Mr. Granger's arm, as if blaming Mr. Granger for his frankness.

"Is this thing? There was a batch of treasures here originally, and I think some wizard must have left a way out for him. However, it seems that the wizard's luck is not very good. Anyway, it was cheaper for me in the end, and I sold it. A little bit, for some money." Lean said with a smile, he knew that Mr. Granger would definitely ask this question.

"There is also the magic circle here, which was set up by the wizards before. But they don't seem to consider that no one will come for a long time, and maybe they don't care about this stronghold, so the defensive magic circle stopped before I arrived. But later I put them up, you know, a yard isn't safe without a fence."

Mr. Granger nodded. The sanctity of private property has been deeply rooted in people's minds since the enactment of the Bill of Rights.

"By the way, Lean, you said in your letter that your house has a huge library. Is it true? Take me to see it!" The little girl was obviously not interested in what Lean said just now, and hurriedly urged Lian Take her to read a book.

"Of course, please follow me." Lean said with a smile, and then led the Granger family to his library.

As soon as Hermione entered the room, she was shocked by the sight in front of her. The tall bookshelves were full of books, and there was about one meter of empty space between each row of bookshelves, but the number of bookshelves was almost impossible to count.

"This is really... unbelievable." Hermione stared at Rin with wide eyes, "I thought you were lying in the letter."

Lean bent over and said with a smile, "A gentleman would never lie to a beautiful lady."

Mr. Granger raised an eyebrow.

This kid has a problem.

He coughed slightly, as if reminding Rian of his existence.

"Okay, let me introduce this place to you." Lien played the role of the master and began to introduce.

"Most of this is copied from the London library, only the thirty bookshelves at the back are books about magic, some of which originally existed here, and the other, as you know, from Diagon Alley Lihen Bookstore."

As he said that, Rian sighed, his background in just a few years still couldn't compare with those wizard families.

Wait, the Hogwarts library seems to be quite big, maybe it can...

Lean thought of this and made a secret decision.

Now that I can move the London library, the Hogwarts library is naturally no problem.

After hearing this, Hermione ran to the bookshelf with an exclamation.

When Lean saw it, he just smiled, then turned to Mr. Granger and said, "Maybe you can visit my wine cellar?"

Originally, there was no wine cellar in Lien's house, but after he discovered that he had collected a lot of good wine from Charlie's gang, Lien decided to build a wine cellar for himself.

Over the past two years, Li En has collected a lot of good wine.

"Squeak..." The door of the wine cellar made a teeth-piercing sound because it hadn't been opened for a long time.

"Welcome to Lean's Cellars. The wine here may be very new, but I think it will be just right when I'm old enough to drink."

"Wow, there are some good bottles of wine here." Mr. Granger picked up a bottle of wine and observed it carefully before saying.

"Maybe you can bring a few bottles back later?" Li En smiled wickedly.

Cannibals have short mouths and short hands.This is not just talk.

Mrs. Granger kept giving Mr. Granger winks, but Mr. Granger only had the good wine in his eyes at this moment.

"Okay, Lean, thank you very much. This bottle, and this bottle. Well, this bottle seems to be good." Mr. Granger began to choose the wine that he would bring back later regardless of his appearance.

Every time Mr. Granger picked out a bottle of wine, Mrs. Granger's expression became colder.

Lean couldn't help worrying about Mr. Granger's unknown fate.

"Mom and Dad! Rin!" Hermione's voice came, interrupting Mr. Granger's desire to pick another bottle of wine.

"You were here." Hermione appeared at the door of the wine cellar.

"Dad, what are you doing!"

Hermione, who noticed that Mr. Granger was picking a drink, frowned and asked.
