Hogwarts: The Book of Magic

Chapter 90 School Opening Dinner

After arriving at the station, the little wizards walked into Hogwarts by themselves.The carriages pulled by thestrals are only available at the beginning of school after the summer vacation.

However, the interest of the little wizards is obviously not here. Walking with friends is more to the satisfaction of the little wizards.Although they had spent the whole afternoon together on the train, the little wizards obviously hadn't had enough chatting yet.

Professor McGonagall is standing at the gate of the school waiting for the little wizards to arrive. When every little wizard enters the gate, she will put a tick behind the corresponding name on the parchment she carries with her to prevent any little wizard from missing the start of school.

Although this kind of thing rarely happened in the history of Hogwarts.

When the little wizards came to the dining room, the students who stayed at the school for Christmas were already sitting at the table.

They were also very happy to see their classmates returning to school. After all, Hogwarts was really deserted during the holidays.

"Hey, Lean, nice to meet you, how is your Christmas?" Kex was very enthusiastic, pulling Lean to his side.

Beaver was talking to Juana on the side. Juana is the jewel in the palm of the Foley family, and she must go back for Christmas.

The two didn't see each other for the entire holiday, and in order to prevent their family members from knowing, the two didn't even exchange a single letter.

As the saying goes, a long absence is better than a new marriage, and this is what is being said.

"I met that agent Mork this holiday season," Kex said to Lean, not worried about whether others could hear him.

At this moment, the restaurant was very noisy and everyone was talking, so in order to let their friends hear what they said, the little wizards had no choice but to increase their volume.

The consequence is that in order to ensure that their friends can hear their voices, other people can only increase the volume accordingly, so the restaurant is getting more and more noisy.

Therefore, the normal speaking voice can be regarded as whispering in this environment.

"Children, please be quiet." An old but majestic voice passed through the noisy environment and rang precisely in the ears of every little wizard.

Even the little wizard who wants to share interesting stories with his friends now shuts his mouth. This is the greatest white wizard of the twentieth century.

All the little wizards turned to look at Professor Dumbledore on the teaching bench.

"Welcome everyone back to Hogwarts, I hope you have a happy holiday, and of course you will also have a happy semester." Dumbledore said with a smile, "Okay, children, let us have a happy semester in the new semester." On the first day, eat to your heart's content."

As he said that, he waved his hand, and many delicious dishes appeared on the plates on the dining table in an instant.

And the restaurant also restored the previous noise.

While eating delicious food, everyone continued to brag to their friends about what they did during the holidays.

Kex and Ryan continued to talk about the previous topic.

"On Christmas Day, I went to see the Mork agent. But to be honest, he had a miserable life. Even on Christmas, he couldn't be with his family. It can be seen that he loves his family very much." Kex took a sip of the orange juice, and then lightly punched Lean, "This kind of person is easy to use, and your Christmas present is good."

"So what are you going to do?" Lean just took a piece of barbecue and ate it slowly.

On the train this afternoon, he and Hermione had another full meal, and it might be difficult for Hermione to have an appetite now.

Thinking of this, he looked at the Gryffindor table.

Hermione was talking to a girl beside her at this time, and there was only half a piece of barbecue on her dinner plate.

"Ryan?" Kex yelled from the sidelines.

"Huh?" Ryan came back to his senses.

"Maybe I need you to help me rescue the agent's family members in the future. Of course, I will pay you. How about three bottles of youth potion?"

The potion of youth is a potion that can keep the user's youthful appearance. Every time a bottle is taken, one's appearance can be restored to what it was a year ago, and it can be taken multiple times.

Although the potion of youth is not a rare potion, it is highly sought after by wizards because it can be used by men, women and even muggles.

Often when it appears in the market, it will be sold out immediately.

And if you want to maintain your appearance all the time, you have to take it all the time, after all, your appearance will gradually get old with age.

This also resulted in the annual output of Youth Potion being so large, but countless wizards were waiting.

Ryan thought for a while, and agreed.

Youth potion is a good choice whether you keep it for yourself or give it away.

"That agent didn't explain something?" Lean asked curiously.

You know, even when he wrote to him at the beginning, the agent also gave a copy of the latest information about the Corey family.

"Of course, by the way, I remembered it here. The agent asked me to tell you that the Corey family has been smuggling death row prisoners from the Muggle world recently, and the number is also increasing." Kex After speaking, he looked at Rin with some doubts.

"Lian, have you found out that the Corey family is conducting some black magic experiments?"

Even in a noisy restaurant, Kex inadvertently lowered his voice.

Experimentation with black arts, which is banned by all Ministry of Magic, if found, all wizards related to it will be arrested.

Historically, it is because of the so-called black magic experiment that everyone shouted at the wizard.

After the "International Wizarding Secrecy Act" was promulgated, there were also several black magic experiments that almost exposed the magic world to ordinary people. Afterwards, the Ministry of Magic also spent a lot of effort to complete the secrecy work.

Since then, the Ministry of Magic has ordered a complete ban on dark arts experimentation.

Even schools like Durmstrang in Northern Europe, which openly teach black magic, dare not conduct black magic experiments.

Lean touched his chin and suddenly felt that this excuse was good.He was still thinking about what excuses he could use to cover up that evil spell, but he didn't expect that there would be another one.

Seeing that Lean didn't speak, Max seemed to have confirmed what he was thinking.

In order to completely prohibit black magic experiments and to detect those who take risks in a timely manner, the Ministry of Magic specifically allows in the order that once the incident is confirmed to be true, the informant can obtain half of the property of the informant.

Kex guessed that Lean was after half of the Corey family property.

Although the Corey family is not a big family, half of the property is much more than their personal worth.

Lean looked at Kex's mysterious smile, and suddenly realized that Kex might be thinking wrong.

But he didn't mean to explain. He couldn't tell Kes that I was greedy for the money of the Corey family and the members of the Corey family.

Since Kex misunderstood, let him continue to misunderstand.

The dinner ended soon, and the excitement would always subside, and the little wizards who had been on the train for a day gradually became sleepy under the night.
