Cardcaptor at Hogwarts

"It's okay, Harry, no one will notice you."

Along with the voices, Hermione, Ron and Harry each came over with a glass of butterbeer and sat down on the seats not far away from them.

"Even if they noticed it, who would know that your parents didn't sign for you and that you used an invisibility cloak to sneak out?"

Adam: "..."

He raised his eyes and looked around. The expressions of the other four people at the same table were also very subtle.

"They...can't they see us?"

Colon lowered his voice and asked this sentence with doubts.

Adam glanced at the potted holly tree between them and Harry's table. It didn't look like it could block them. If he couldn't recognize the person, couldn't he recognize the school uniforms they were wearing?

Or should I say...

Adam glanced at the Badger Yard logo on his chest.

Is the existence of their badgers so low?

"Oh~ Thank you for being willing to have a drink with me."

Harry sighed suddenly,

"Professor Trelawney's prediction really put me under a lot of pressure..."

"Are you still thinking about that prophecy?"

Hermione's voice suddenly rose an octave,

"I told you, she's just a liar——"

"Oh! Come on, Harry, don't listen to her, she doesn't care what anyone else thinks."

Ron interrupted Hermione somewhat rudely.

"..."

The conversation at the next table was so lively and arrogant that Adam didn't know whether to continue chatting for a moment, and at the same time he couldn't help but become a little curious about what they were talking about.

After all, gossip is human nature...

With this comfort in his heart, Adam took a sip of butterbeer and pricked up his ears with peace of mind.

"Actually, before school starts..."

Harry hesitated and told his aunt about leaving the Dursley's house.

"What?!"

Hermione exclaimed, and then asked Harry in a low voice that Adam and the others could still hear clearly:

"The Ministry of Magic didn't imprison you in Azkaban?"

"You never told us this!"

Ron slammed the table excitedly without lowering his voice - Adam suspected that his voice could be heard on the other side of the wall:

"So where will you live before school starts? Why don't you come to us?"

"Well... I live in the Leaky Cauldron, but that's not the point."

Harry skipped the topic a little stiffly:

"The point is that when I just left the Dursley's house, I really saw a big black dog at that intersection!"

"……so what?"

Hermione had a hard time understanding,

"There are countless black dogs in London! If Professor Trelawney says your bad omen is a trash can, a street lamp, or something else..."

"No, I looked at the black dog at that time. The look in that dog's eyes...I can't tell clearly, but I felt like I was looking at someone!"

The next table fell silent, seemingly shocked by Harry's story.

"Have you finished drinking? Let's go hang out somewhere else?"

Eugene finished the butterbeer and put the cup on the table with a bang. The three people at the next table were visibly startled, especially Harry, who subconsciously reached behind him and almost jumped from his seat. .

Adam glanced at the back of his chair. There seemed to be a piece of wood missing... He remembered that Harry seemed to have put something down before sitting down. Where was the invisibility cloak?

"How-how did you eavesdrop on us?"

Ron's face turned red with anger.

"I remember you, you were Fred and George's brother... your name was Ron, right?"

Uther choked back unceremoniously:

"We have been sitting here for a long time. It was you who ignored us all the way. Who is interested in your little secret?"

"you--"

"Okay, Ron, Adam and the others were indeed there before, but we didn't see them."

Harry tugged on Ron's sleeve.

If someone came in, there was no way they wouldn't have seen it, so Adam and the others must have been sitting there before. In the situation where they were already in the wrong, and with the guilt that lasted until now, Harry didn't want to have a conflict with Adam.

"……All right."

Ron glanced at Harry and Hermione, then at the five people opposite him, and after thinking about it, he sat back in his seat.

Lowering his head and glancing in Adam's direction, Harry was confused.

Last semester, he caused trouble for Adam. He always wanted to come up and apologize, but...

Apologizing is something that seems simple but actually needs to be done. However, it is extremely difficult to say I'm sorry.

Even if you toss and turn until midnight the night before and firmly believe that you must apologize the next day, it will become "I'll apologize after eating", "I'll apologize after class", "I'll apologize after class", "I'll apologize again tonight"... and finally changed to "I must apologize tomorrow" while lying in bed.

Unaware of Harry's myriad worries, Adam had long since forgotten what happened last year.

Adam didn't want to attract attention because of the Chamber of Secrets incident. Harry probably just wanted Adam to receive extra points and praise like he did in the first year. Even if he wanted to blame it, he should blame Dobby.

"This cup can't be taken away. You'd better sit there for a while until we all finish drinking."

Adam glanced at Eugene. He didn't know if he had just listened to it, but he was really drinking butter beer...

He turned a plate of fried peanuts, a plate of buttered melon seeds and a basket of popcorn on the table for Eugene and everyone to drink and relieve boredom. Adam took the butter beer and took another sip.

I didn't taste it too carefully before, but now I taste it carefully. The butter beer is indeed delicious. The mellow and dense taste neutralizes the light bitterness of the beer well, making the aroma of malt more intense.

It's a pity that he still prefers happy water and milk tea.

Even so, Adam still didn't turn the butter beer in the cup into something else. Instead, he enjoyed this cup of drink that was a little novel to him, and then took a popcorn from the basket and threw it into his mouth.

When the five people finished drinking butter beer, Adam considered the next table, symbolically took out the magic wand and waved it, cleared the debris on the table, and then picked up the empty glass to leave.

Hermione's eyes flickered slightly. Didn't she expect Adam's learning progress to be able to silently cast the Vanishing Charm...

"Wait a minute, Adam!"

Harry gritted his teeth and chased after him.

"Huh?"

Seeing the five people in front of him turn their heads together, Harry almost bit his tongue, and at the same time couldn't help but regret catching up... This thought was extinguished by Harry as soon as it arose. He had already delayed it to the second school year. If he delayed it any further, would he have to wait until graduation to apologize?

"Then, that... Can I talk to Adam alone?"

Although he had made up his mind to force himself to apologize, Harry was obviously not ready to apologize in front of so many people.

Adam didn't know why Harry wanted to find him, but he didn't have to worry that Harry's strength was to harm him, so he handed the empty cup in his hand to Cologne, who was closest to him:

"Please return it to Ms. Rosmerta for me, I want to talk to Harry..."

Cologne took the glass, glanced at Harry, and nodded to Adam:

"Then we'll wait for you at Honeydukes Candy Store."

I heard that Honeydukes Candy Store has launched several new products to attract customers, and they had discussed before that they planned to "investigate the enemy situation."

After Cologne and the others left, Adam looked at Harry:

"So, what do you want to talk to me about alone?"
