After Dumbledore's funeral, all the students were preparing to leave the school.

Esther did not take the Hogwarts Express, but was taken back directly by her parents.

After they left Hogwarts, her parents apparated with her back to their home in St. Catchpole Village. After not coming back for a while, everything around her became slightly strange.

"Let's take a rest first. We'll be moving in two days."

Mother Letitia rubbed Esther's soft and beautiful blond hair and spoke softly.

Before she knew it, Esther had grown almost as tall as her mother.

Esther looked at her mother: "Are you going to move back to your grandfather's place?"

Letitia answered her: "Yes, it is no longer safe here. Once Dumbledore dies, the Death Eaters will definitely become more unscrupulous. And your father happens to be a well-known Muggle wizard. Someone is targeting him."

Esther looked at her father, David.

David's face was expressionless, and he didn't seem to care too much about being targeted by Death Eaters.

"Esther, tell me the truth." He looked at Esther and said solemnly: "Is Dumbledore really dead?"

Esther did not answer immediately, but asked David: "Why does this doubt arise?"

David said: "Because this is not like your style, you were not involved at all when the Death Eaters broke into Hogwarts this time. You must know that last year you broke into the Ministry of Magic to save Black."

Esther was silent for a moment, and then said: "What if it's because I couldn't do anything about Dumbledore's death, so I didn't care?"

David replied: "No way, this is not your character."

Esther:…

"You mean that I am overestimating my abilities?"

Esther read David's hidden meaning.

"I didn't say it, don't misinterpret my meaning." David refused to admit it. He leaned on the sofa, but still looked at Esther: "Don't interrupt, you haven't answered my question yet."

Esther sighed: "Although Dumbledore didn't say it, I think he didn't want to tell many people about it."

One sentence said nothing, but it also said everything.

David and Letitia looked at each other, their expressions obviously relaxed.

"Okay, we know what's going on." David couldn't help but smile a little. He reached out and rubbed Esther's hair. Compared to his mother's actions, he seemed much rougher, and Esther immediately ran away. His devil's claws stood nearby and glared at him.

"What do you want for dinner? I'll cook it for you myself?"

David didn't care about Esther's glare and was still in a good mood.

But as soon as he said these words, Esther immediately changed her expression to a look of horror, shaking her head faster than a rattle: "Farewell, I'm not hungry."

Just kidding, with her father's cooking skills, dogs may not eat anything he cooks.

Mother Letitia also said: "Don't cook yet. Everyone is probably not in the mood to eat. You should pack your things first. You will move out tomorrow, but you have too many books."

Why couldn't David see that his wife and daughter didn't want him to cook? He was actually quite confident in his cooking skills. In the past, he didn't understand and that was why he made some mistakes. However, he hasn't been working at the Ministry of Magic recently. When I was idle at home, I read a lot of cooking-related books, and I thought I had thoroughly studied the craft of cooking.

But since they don't believe him, let's forget it.

He doesn't like cooking that much anyway.

David did not refuse his wife's proposal and turned to pack his precious books.

Esther also returned to her room to pack her things. She had a lot of things but it was easy to pack. She waved her magic wand to make the suitcase open automatically. The clothes lined up and entered the suitcase one by one without her needing to move her hands at all.

Although wizards under the age of 17 are prohibited from using magic outside of school, the Ministry of Magic will basically not care when there are adult wizards nearby. What's more, the Ministry of Magic has been infiltrated into a sieve by Voldemort and has no time to take care of itself. Of course not Take care of other things.

There is still the last year.

While packing things, Esther couldn't help but sigh.

This year will be the most difficult year, and after getting through this year, everything will be over, and they will not be far from normal and ordinary days.

Draco had obviously told her to see her tomorrow that day, but in fact he had not contacted her again until today.

She didn't feel much disappointed because she knew that he was definitely not having a good time now.

When I was in a trance, my mother's voice came from downstairs: "Essie, there is a package for you, come and get it!"

She quickly came to her senses, walked out of the room, and walked downstairs.

In the living room, my mother put a package on the table. When she saw Esther, she said, "What the owl just sent over is your signature. It should be a gift from your friend."

Although she was also curious about how someone could give a gift at such an inappropriate time, she did not find out who gave it or what it was.

Esther opened it immediately. After opening the ordinary package, there was a bottle of golden potion inside. Although the name of the sender was not left, it was obvious who sent it.

Besides Professor Snape, who had already promised her, who would give her the elixir of good fortune?

She couldn't help but smile, accepted the elixir in a good mood, and turned to look at her mother: "Mom, can you make me a small cake tonight?"

"No." Mom Letitia refused without hesitation: "The cake is too troublesome. When you return to your grandfather's house tomorrow, there will be plenty of people to make it for you. Don't embarrass me today."

"Okay." Esther was not sad after being rejected. She walked upstairs with the elixir in her arms.

Back in her room, she put the vial of Felixir together with the vial of unicorn blood she had gotten before, and continued to pack her things.

After a simple dinner, their family went to bed early and left here early tomorrow morning to return to their grandfather's mansion.

Grandfather didn't express much about their return, but Grandma Hawke seemed very happy.

"So, that magic school was forced to close, and you didn't go to school, right Esther?" She smiled and hugged Esther gently: "But it doesn't matter, we can study in a normal middle school, I will I’ll help you contact the school so you can go to school after the summer vacation.”

"Probably not."

Esther rejected Grandma Hawke's kindness: "Because I promised Principal Dumbledore, there are some things that I need to continue to do."

The smile on Grandma Hawke's face disappeared in an instant. She looked at Esther helplessly: "Okay, okay, I know you won't agree. The whole family has this kind of character."

She whispered, seeming very tired.
