The Admiral of Hogwarts

#123 - Summer vacation for everyone

After being comforted by Hugo, Hermione quickly calmed down.

After all, she was just worried out of concern, but now that Hugo had analyzed the matter simply, with her intelligence, she quickly realized that Harry's current situation was just a small setback and there was no need to worry too much.

So soon, Hermione went with Veneto and Firefly to the underground practice room to practice magic.

According to her, she hadn't touched her wand for a whole month before, and maybe her magic skills had deteriorated.

So now that she had the opportunity, she definitely had to practice magic well.

The day quickly passed like this, and when Hugo and Hermione went to the Hood's shop for breakfast the next morning, they saw Firefly unpacking a letter, while Veneto and Hood were feeding some kind of green paste-like potion into the mouth of an owl that looked like it was already unconscious.

"Ron sent me a letter with his family's old owl."

Firefly waved the parchment in her hand and said, "But this owl named Errol is really too old, so just now it crashed directly into the glass of the window and knocked itself unconscious, so now Sister Hood and the others are rescuing it."

"Poor fellow."

Hermione shook her head with pity as she watched the owl on the windowsill slowly recover after being pried open and fed the potion, then turned to Firefly and asked, "By the way, is this letter related to Harry?"

"Of course it's related."

After tearing open the envelope and glancing at the contents of the letter, Firefly looked up at Hermione and said, "Ron and his twin brothers drove their father's flying car directly to Harry's aunt's house and took Harry out.

Now they have successfully arrived at the Weasleys' house."

"Oh, I was one step late.

It seems that the timing of this trip happened to coincide with this matter."

Hugo was a little regretful after hearing what Firefly said, after all, this was a good opportunity to obtain destiny points, but it seemed that there was no hope now.

But after thinking about it, Hugo felt that his picking up Harry and the Weasleys picking up Harry were obviously two different things.

After all, the Weasleys were staunch members of the Order of the Phoenix, and Harry could be said to be absolutely safe in their home.

But if Harry was to spend the rest of the summer in a family like the Grangers, then Dumbledore behind the scenes would probably find it difficult to rest assured.

So compared to being approached by Dumbledore or even being put on the suspect list, Hugo felt that although he regrettably didn't get a lot of destiny points this time, he also avoided being noticed by the headmaster too early.

Although these thoughts were a bit of an Ah Q mentality, from a certain point of view, it also made him feel a lot better.

"I hope Ron and the others didn't break the law in this matter."

Hermione took the letter from Firefly and muttered softly, "But no matter what, it's really too dangerous for a few minors to drive a car across half of England.

I really can't stand the recklessness of those Gryffindor boys."

"There's no way, if they deliberated repeatedly like you before doing things, they should be Ravenclaw students."

Firefly raised her eyebrows and said.

"Fortunately, it can be seen from this letter that Harry and Ron should have arrived home safely, otherwise they wouldn't be writing to us now."

"That's good."

Hugo and Hermione nodded at the same time, no matter what, as friends of Harry and the Weasleys, hearing that Harry and the others were all well now was something that made them feel happier.

Especially when they saw Harry asking Firefly to send his greetings to the Granger siblings at the end of the letter.

So next, everyone wrote a reply, and then handed these letters to Hood to help her send them to the Owl Post Office in Diagon Alley.

After all, Errol of the Weasleys' family was already like this after sending a letter, and if he was asked to send these thickened letters back, he might really die on the road.

Returning to life in London was obviously much busier than before when on vacation.

For example, Mr. and Mrs. Granger went to the office almost every day to busy themselves with their business, while Hugo and Hermione went to Hood's shop together when their parents were not at home to learn various magic and fighting skills.

In addition, Hugo also learned from Hood that since the Fame and the others came here, the ship girls' plan in England has greatly advanced.

In just one month, they successfully found a foothold in Diagon Alley that could be used as a base.

"Diagon Alley?

I thought you would set up the base in Knockturn Alley."

After listening to Hood's general account of the work done by these newly arrived British ship girls, Hugo asked with some incomprehension.

"I think you should have seen the memories of those related system fanfics from my memory."

"That's right, so we also wanted to set up the base in Knockturn Alley at the beginning."

Hood's lips curled up slightly and said.

"But we later discovered that the various facilities in Knockturn Alley were obviously not suitable for the implementation of our plan, and more importantly, if we want to hide ourselves, it is actually more effective to put it in Diagon Alley."

"You are right, at least from the perspective of traffic, Diagon Alley is more suitable for people to hide than Knockturn Alley."

Hugo scratched his hair and said, he found that he was a bit too influenced by those fanfics from his previous life, fortunately, he handed over the decision-making power to the ship girls before, so he didn't make this low-level mistake.

"Our store mainly sells various imported products."

Veneto walked into the room at this time and said to Hugo.

"The goods mainly come from the farms and workshops owned by the Soviet ship girls, in addition, there are also some magic props made by Indomitable and potions made by Illustrious."

According to Veneto, the store is doing very well now, and it cannot obtain enough profit every month.

The operating conditions are not much worse than other stores.

And through the operation of the store, they have also slowly extended their tentacles to all aspects of the British magical world.

"We have met a lot of people during this time, one of the most important is an editor from Obscurus Books."

Hood also said at this time, "With his help, Hagrid's notebook that we sorted out before has been recognized by the company and can be published through them."

Obscurus Books is a publishing company headquartered at 18a South Side, Diagon Alley, which became famous for publishing Newt Scamander's Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.

However, because this publishing company is not large, it has not been able to obtain the printing rights for other Hogwarts textbooks, and it is also difficult to obtain the favor of authors of other popular books.

For example, in the last competition for the copyright of Lockhart's best-selling books, it lost to Rummage's Books.

Therefore, after discovering Hagrid's book in Hood's store, the editor was overjoyed, especially since this book combines Hagrid's half-century of careful observation of those magical creatures with the ship girls' top-notch writing skills, it can be regarded as a very valuable book.

"That editor told us that they plan to print 150 paperback copies in the first edition."

Veneto said with a smile on her face, "With the volume of the magic world, this is already a lot."
