I'm so thankful that my mother gave me a bag with the No Trace Stretching Charm before I headed out, otherwise I wouldn't be able to bring home every book I set my sights on.

"Here are some books that I haven't seen in my mother's study." I said happily. Every time I come to the bookstore, the dazzling array of books always makes it difficult for me to move away.

"He Flies Like a Madman?" Cedric read the title of one of the books I was holding. "Do you even read that?"

"Of course it's about Quidditch, I thought Quidditch lovers like you would read...?"

"Uh...Actually, compared to these words, I still prefer to fly on the field myself." Cedric coughed, as if to cover up his unnaturalness.

I nodded, and picked up "Hitting Bludgers—A Study on Quidditch Defense Strategies" again.

Because David graduated, our Quidditch captain became Roger this year. His strategy is somewhat different from David's, which makes me have to reserve more theoretical knowledge to deal with the necessary situations during practice. Although Qiu feels that theoretical knowledge can't help a lot, and practice is the truth, but she has to admit that most of the time, she relies on me to find out what the opponent may do on the field.

"Are you still reading this?" Cedric seemed to be taken aback for a moment, "I seem to understand why Ravenclaw is so good at analyzing the opponent's strategy."

"Oh, those are just a few cases, you know it's different this year, not only with an extra Potter, but also with Hufflepuff's new Captain Diggory." I said, "so Roger had to put this big The task was given to me, I wonder if I would have the honor to find out about Hufflepuff's new tactics this year?"

Cedric raised his eyebrows, raised my chin with his right hand and approached me when he didn't notice us: "Of course...but I didn't tell you this for nothing."

He was very close, and if we got closer, our lips would touch each other. His eyes began to grow deep, and I quickly pushed him away—there were people everywhere.

"I, I don't think it's a problem if I don't know for the time being." I said in a panic and ran out of the bookstore with the things I had paid for.

I heard Cedric laughing behind my back. He must have been playing tricks on me.

...

When passing by the Quidditch boutique, this year's latest broom, the Firebolt/Arrow, is displayed in the window. Its broom handle is made of polished and smooth ebony, and it is said to have non-slip function.

"Merlin, it's so cool!" I exclaimed through the glass, but I took a look at the price - I think my current broom is actually very handy, but I think Seekers may need such a broom more , I took a peek at Cedric, he was staring at the Firebolt/Arrow, he seemed to be very interested in this new one too, no Quidditch player would not want it.

"Cedric?" I called out, and he withdrew his reluctant gaze.

"You can have it whenever you want," I reassured, "and when you get to work, you can afford a better broom!"

"You're right." He stretched out his hand and rubbed my hair, "Now I'm still very confident in facing Ravenclaw's sweeping seven stars."

"Hey! We won't lose to you!" I retorted with some dissatisfaction. When it comes to Quidditch, I don't think I can budge at all.

Cedric laughed twice, and pulled me to the entrance of Florin's Cold Drink Shop. I admit that when I saw the ice cream in his hand, I completely forgot that we were still talking about Quidditch in the last second. Incompatible things.

"Thank you!" I happily took my share of strawberry flame ice cream, and then I focused on licking the ice cream, besides, Cedric was pulling me, I just need to pay attention to my ice cream not to be touched Just drop it.

When I passed by the Yila owl shop, Cedric asked me why I didn't buy an owl to take to school. I shook my head. If Martha saw that I brought a new little friend home, she would be upset, besides The school has an owl shack where I can post letters.

"In that case, I won't be able to write to you anytime at school." He said with some regret.

"Why did you write to me at school?" I asked a little puzzled, "We can meet every day if you want."

Cedric laughed again—I don't know why I always make him laugh when I say it, but seeing him laugh makes me feel better too.

"Yeah, you're right, we can meet every day."

...

There are still a few days before school starts, but I can't wait for school to start. It's been a week since I last saw Cedric, and I seem to miss him a little.

Although he writes to me every day, sometimes when I see him tell me that he misses me very much, I can even roll on the bed excitedly - the book says that love can make people irrational, this is my personal experience arrive.

My father told me to protect myself when I get to school, and Black's target is likely to be Potter after he gets out of prison, which means that he may appear in every corner of Hogwarts at any time.

"Hogwarts may take some necessary measures." He said with some seriousness, "Although I do not agree with such an approach, there is no way to do it, and the Ministry of Magic also thinks it is the best way."

"What way?" Looking at my father's expression, I felt a little uneasy.

"...a dementor."

I took a deep breath, although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but it is said that wherever this thing passes, it will be sucked out of happiness, reminding you of the most terrible thing, they guard the Azkaban wizard prison and the only way to get rid of them Possibly just the Patronus Charm.

Dementors at Hogwarts?I just can't imagine what kind of scene that would be.

"So, your mother and I agree that you should be taught how to use the Patronus Charm, although it may take some time to learn it."

As soon as I heard that I was going to learn a new spell, my interest was up, so I followed my father to learn the Patronus Charm a few days before the start of school.

But he was right, the Patronus Charm is one of the most powerful and oldest defensive spells in the wizarding world, and until the night before school started, the best I could do was spray some silver mist from the tip of my wand.

"You need to focus and think about what is happiest in your heart."

Dad told me so, but whether I was thinking about the delicious cake, or what happened in school, I was a little discouraged, and it didn't make me cast the full spell. bottleneck.

"It's normal, Tilly." Dad comforted me. "Not everyone can learn as fast as you. You have made great progress. You can try to practice by yourself at school."

That's true, but every failure makes me gradually irritated, and when I'm irritated I can't even summon the mist.

...

As I expected, on the Hogwarts Express going to school, Cho and Marietta rushed towards me screaming as soon as they saw me, the space in the car was too small!I can only be caught straight.

"Look who this is? It's Miss Miranda who started dating other people!" Marietta pulled me over and let me sit between them. "Who would have thought that she got the most handsome boy in the school?" !Merlin's Mirror, you are so lucky!"

Marietta seemed more agitated than I was, as if she was the one on the date.

"Tell us, Tilly." Qiu Ye looked gossip, "How did you manage to get such a handsome boyfriend?"

"He, he's not my boyfriend yet." I blushed, "We...we're just dating."

"Who knows, it will be sooner or later, I haven't seen Diggory date that girl yet, you're already halfway there!" Marietta looked determined to win, "Work hard, next date The relationship will be confirmed at the time! Did you kiss?"

"Wh, what? No, no, no... this is too fast..." I covered my face, I felt my cheeks were hot, I just hope they can end this topic quickly.

But the two of them showed disappointed expressions one after another. I suddenly thought of something and spoke solemnly.

"That...don't say it out there." I said, "I don't want to be a thorn in the side of the girls yet."

"Oh, don't worry, we won't talk about it." Qiu said, "But, you know, the rumors will only grow, and it's impossible for you not to be seen."

What she said is not wrong, but... I really don't want to be the protagonist of what people are talking about. It's a matter of time, but it's still a bit too early.

"You're so innocent, Tilly." Marietta put her arms around my head. "You don't even have to follow the rules when it comes to dating, huh?"

"But, but, the book says that a man and a woman must go on at least three dates to be the best time to establish a relationship..."

"If you go back to school and talk about things with books, I'll throw away all your books."

She shut me up immediately, but she kept on talking.

"I said a long time ago, why did Tilly look down on Roger? It turned out that it was because of Digory!" The two of them laughed, and I focused my eyes on the outside of the door—the cart seems to be particularly special today. slow.

At this time, I found that the train was getting slower and slower.The sound of the wheels is quieter, and the sound of the wind and rain outside the window is louder.The train suddenly shocked and stopped, and the sound of banging came from the distance, indicating that the luggage dropped from the shelf.Then, all of a sudden, all the lights went out, and we were plunged into total darkness.

"What happened?" Qiu's voice was very clear in the darkness.

"...No, I don't know."

We did not go to open the door of the carriage, but at this moment, there seemed to be a figure outside the window, a flash of lightning flashed, illuminating the window, and I clearly saw the figure outside——a monster in a cloak and as tall as the ceiling , its face is completely hidden under the hood.

But it left quickly, and the three of us sat there shaking.

"...What was that just now?"

"...a dementor."
