The day of the duel at Hogwarts

September [-]st, King's Cross station, platform nine and three-quarters.

Sean hugged his mother and father goodbye, and then said to Aldridge: "Aldridge, during this time, the house will be left to you."

"Master, please don't worry, I will take good care of the family."

Looking at Aldridge, Sean knew very well that taking good care of him meant protecting his parents' safety. Although as long as Gavin was still there, the possibility of Borrell taking action against his parents was very slim, but people Sometimes it is irrational, so naturally it is better to make more preparations.

After waving and saying goodbye to his father and mother, Sean pushed his car through the pillar and arrived at platform nine and three-quarters, where he saw the familiar Hogwarts Express train.

"Sean, you're finally here."

Turning to look at Blaise who was waving to him, Sean pushed the car and walked forward quickly. With the help of Blaise, he sent the luggage to the compartment where the luggage was stored. The staff put the luggage in place. Sean then While chatting with Brace, he walked onto the train and looked for an empty carriage.

"Sean, what have you been doing this holiday? I asked you to come to my house to play, but you didn't come either."

Ignoring the resentful expression on Blaise's face, Sean explained to him: "I just got off the train and went to Beauxbatons in France. I stayed there for a month. After I came back, I reunited with my parents for a while. , I will definitely visit your home during the holidays next year."

"Okay, that's settled, but...but why do you look so bloated today?"

Sitting in the selected unmanned carriage, Sean looked at Blaise and said with a smile: "You forgot, Kulkan likes to get into my clothes the most."

"Is this Kulkan? How come I didn't feel it was so bloated when it got into your clothes last year?"

As Blaise finished speaking, Kulkan, who was much larger than last year, emerged from Sean's collar. His head touched Blaise's outstretched hand, like a high-five. This was Kulkan. He was greeting Brace. Last year, Sean asked Brace to help greet Kulkan for a while. In addition, Brace and Sean were inseparable on weekdays. Gradually, Kulkan became very familiar with Brace.

"Oh, here it is."

Brace turned around and saw Jason standing at the door. He was stunned for a moment, and then said warily: "Jason, what are you doing here?"

Jason looked at Sean, who was sitting inside by the window, then looked at Blaise and said, "I'm here to see my young master."

Walking straight to Sean, Jason said to Sean: "Master, I'm here."

"Sit down." Sean turned to look at Jason. He thought for a moment and said, "From now on, in Hogwarts, you can just call me by my name."

"Master, you don't need to be like this. I don't care what other people think."

"Just do it, call me by my name in Hogwarts from now on, otherwise you won't stay around me."

Jason looked at Sean, his lips pursed slightly. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word. In the end, he just nodded slightly and said, "I understand."

Reaching out and patting Jason's shoulder, Sean didn't say much. He just stretched out his hand to pull Kulkan out of his clothes and threw it on the table in the carriage to let him bask in the sun. He looked at the inquiring look on his face. The lustful Brace said: "Jason will be with me from now on, so don't have any hostility towards him, just treat him as a friend."

"Whether he's a friend or not, we'll see when the time comes. If I think he's okay, then of course he's a friend."

After laughing, Sean raised his foot and kicked Blaise, and then asked: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Where is your girlfriend? Why didn't I see you with her?"

When he mentioned his girlfriend, Brace immediately became energetic. He looked at Sean and said seriously: "She and I are very good. We have made an appointment to go to the library to study together after school starts. I won't do it again this year." I’m just cramming, I will study with my girlfriend and make progress together!”

Sean looked at Blaise in surprise and said, "What's wrong with your girlfriend? Didn't she dislike studying just like you before?"

At this point, Blaise coughed lightly and said with a little bit of embarrassment: "What are you guilty of? I established a relationship with my current girlfriend during the vacation. We wrote letters and chatted about life. I think she is My true love.”

"So you have another girlfriend! Where is your previous senior?"

"We broke up." Blaise said simply.

"Why again this time?"

"She asked me to beg my mother during the holidays to give her family's business some preferential treatment, but I never interfered in my family's business, so I said that this matter is not something that we children who are still in school should care about.

As a result, she started arguing with me, saying that she just wanted to see my attitude, that I wouldn't even help her, and that if she got married in the future, she would definitely have no status in my family, etc. I even coaxed her for a while at first. , as a result, she was endless.

Later, she said that she would break up if I didn't agree. When I heard this, I immediately felt that I couldn't let go of such a good thing, so I directly agreed to her, and we broke up like this. "

After listening to Blaise's words, Sean grinned. Blaise's girlfriend, no, ex-girlfriend, she is really confused, and Blaise is really a scumbag. It's better for these two guys to break up, otherwise To stay together is to torture each other.

"Brace, what grade is your current girlfriend in? From what you said before, she sounds like she is from Ravenclaw."

With a smile, Blaise said: "She is from Ravenclaw. She is in the third year of school and is one year older than me."

"Senior again?"

"Senior is the best!"

Just when Sean and Brace were talking, and Jason was secretly labeling Brace a scumbag in his heart, the door of their carriage was opened directly, and Andy, who had not seen him for a long time, got in from the outside and sat down. Next to Blaise, he greeted Blaise and Jason one after another, and then looked at Sean and said: "Sean, it's been a long time no see. How do you think about what I asked you during the holiday?"

Among the people in the school, except for Brace, Andy was the most diligent in writing letters to Sean. Of course, Brace did it purely for chatting and deepening the relationship, while Andy wanted to convince Sean and cooperate fully with him and get along with him for a long time. Years later, Andy naturally saw Sean's true potion skills.

Moreover, even if he didn't see it, "The Golden Crucible" at the end of the semester explained everything. Therefore, throughout the holiday, Andy continued to write letters to Sean, trying to persuade him to deepen cooperation with him.
