Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying - Chapter 407

Although Wade quickly learned to Apparate, Dumbledore did not end their course.

In the next two days, they still practiced in the glade every afternoon.

Of course, there was another Wade in the school at this time, so no one noticed his secret course.

No matter what spell, the more skilled you are, the simpler it is. For example, if Wade wants to turn a button into a beetle, he doesn’t need to construct any image in his mind, and he can do it with a light touch of the wand.

The same is true for Apparate.

At first, Dumbledore praised his diligence, then he discouraged him, and finally he said nothing, just silently provided help and support.

But after Wade returned to school, Dumbledore couldn’t help but sigh deeply.

Professor McGonagall, who was reporting the holiday arrangements, paused and asked in confusion: “Is there anything wrong with these procedures?”

“No, I’m just wondering…” Dumbledore paused and said with a wry smile: “When did… Hogwarts become a place where students feel insecure?”

Professor McGonagall frowned and said seriously: “Who said this? Everyone knows that Hogwarts is the safest place in the world.”

Her expression was almost like writing the words “nonsense” on her face.

Dumbledore did not explain. He picked up the list of students who stayed in school and looked at it. Seeing that Harry’s name was not on it, he asked casually, “Is Harry still going to Hogsmeade during the holidays?”

“I heard that Wade invited him.” Professor McGonagall said, “He should be at Gray’s house during the holidays.”

“Hmm…”

Dumbledore thought for a moment, put down the list, and said with a smile, “Friendship during school years is always very precious, but the relationship between Gryffindor and Ravenclaw is so close, which is rare in my memory.”

“Yes.” Professor McGonagall said with emotion, “Wade Grey’s study group has achieved remarkable results. Everyone is excellent, even Neville has improved a lot – I really hope other children can learn from it.”

“This kind of thing cannot be forced. A good leader is very important.”

Dumbledore took off his glasses and wiped them, saying, “I need to go to the Wizengamot in the next few days, and the holiday will be left to you.”

“Okay… When will you be back?” Professor McGonagall asked.

“Christmas.” Dumbledore smiled and said, “I don’t want to miss the school’s Christmas dinner.”

…

On the last day before the holiday, the school arranged a Hogsmeade weekend.

But this time, the small wizard village was not attractive to Wade. He had to confirm the production of the anti-curse vest with the Weasley twins for the last time, and then gather his strength to practice Apparition in the afternoon.

In the evening, the exhausted Wade sat at the dining table. Just after eating for a while, there was another person beside him.

He thought it was Michael, and suddenly heard the other party ask: “Wade, why didn’t you go to Hogsmeade today?”

Wade was stunned, turned his head, and saw that it was Caryl with a bright smile.

Speaking of which, Dumbledore also gave Wade a task to take care of Caryl!

But Wade was too busy. Even if he used the time converter, he always felt that there was not enough time, not to mention taking care of Caryl across a college.

And Caryl’s attitude also made Wade feel a little strange. He was very enthusiastic and cheerful… But Wade felt that the other party seemed to be avoiding him intentionally or unintentionally.

Was he afraid that he would notice something was wrong with him, or…

Ved had many thoughts in his mind, but on the surface, he was just slightly stunned, and then said:

“I have bought everything I wanted to buy, and Diagon Alley sells more things.”

“Diagon Alley…” Caryl said fascinatedly: “I have heard of that place for a long time, but I haven’t had the chance to go there yet!”

“If you stay in school, you will have to wait until the summer vacation to have the chance to go there.” Wade said.

“I won’t stay in school, I’ll go home!” Caryl said.

Ved was stunned: “Go home?”

“Yes!” Caryl naturally took a baked potato, peeled it and said happily: “I will take the train to King’s Cross Station like you, and then my father will come to pick me up!”

“Mr. Johnson…Have you contacted?” Wade asked slowly.

He remembered that Dumbledore said that Landon Johnson had disappeared. How did that person contact Caryl at Hogwarts?

“Of course!” Caryl seemed to have just remembered something after he finished speaking, and squinted his eyes and said, “Don’t tell anyone else! You know, my parents don’t like wizards.”

“Well… OK.” Wade agreed.

After all those things, it was natural for Mr. Johnson to dislike wizards. He was very open-minded to allow Caryl to study at Hogwarts.

But Wade always felt that something was wrong… The strange feeling made his scalp tingle.

“By the way, come to my house during the holidays!” Caryl suddenly said, “My parents miss you too, and they said they would visit your house before!”

Wade subconsciously refused before he thought clearly, “Maybe not, I should be very busy during this holiday… and my parents are going to Australia for vacation.”

“Is that so… It’s a pity. Then let’s make an appointment during the summer vacation, when the vacation is longer.”

Caryl didn’t look disappointed. He dipped the ketchup and ate a few bites of the baked potato, then returned to the long table on the Gryffindor side.

At this time, Michael, who had arrived belatedly, sat next to Wade.

“That was Khalil just now? Did he have something to do with you?”

“Asking about holiday arrangements.” Wade said, “What about you? Have your parents agreed that you should go to my house on Christmas?”

“They are so eager to do so!” Michael curled his lips and said, “My mother said happily that they can finally have a relaxing Christmas! They made up their minds to live a life of two this time, and asked me not to disturb them casually. “

He glanced sideways and saw several Muggle-born girls giving Khalil their home phone numbers, and also warned: “Remember to call during the holidays, Khalil.”

“Okay!” Khalil put away the note and said with a smile.

“This guy’s popularity is almost catching up with mine!” Michael snorted.

This time Wade didn’t respond. His fork stopped in mid-air and goosebumps appeared on his back.

He finally knew what made him feel weird.

Khalil kept saying “my parents” all the time, as if Mrs. Johnson was still alive.

But this… is so strange!

Isn’t Mrs. Johnson dead long ago?

Did Mr. Johnson conceal the news of his mother’s death when he contacted Khalil?

But listening to Khalil’s tone, it’s as if his mother is still in contact with him personally… Although that guy is careless, if his mother is always “invisible” when contacting him, he will also notice that there is a problem, right?

Wade put down his fork and felt as if he had swallowed a piece of ice. It was heavy and he completely lost his appetite.

“Hey, look at Professor Abigail!” Michael suddenly said: “Haha, she put on her Christmas clothes in advance!”

Wade turned his head and saw Professor Abigail wearing a rather cartoonish Christmas robe. The red robe had fluffy white edges and was decorated with Christmas trees, bells, stars and other patterns.

She also wore a red pointed hat, just like the one worn by Santa Claus.

Professor McGonagall looked at her in surprise, while Hagrid had a dumb look on his face, hesitating whether to remind his colleagues that there were still a few days until Christmas.

Dumbledore was so impressed by her outfit that he transformed himself into a pointy Santa hat with a sparkling star on top.

On the Gryffindor side, Fred whistled and said loudly: “Professor, you look great in your outfit!”

“Haha, not bad!” Professor Abigail put her hands on her hips proudly, showed off her unique outfit, and said, “Although I won’t stay at school during the holidays, for me, today is the day I am in Hogwart. Christmas in Ci!”

“Yes! That’s it! Today is our Christmas!”

“Merry Christmas, Fred!”

“Merry Christmas, George!”

The Gryffindors started cheering, some banged the table and stamped their feet, some clapped, and some sang Christmas songs.

The originally dull atmosphere suddenly became lively. Professor Flitwick pointed his wand upwards, and large white snowflakes fell from his head. There were also some fairies flying over the auditorium carrying flower baskets. Fly away.

Gryffindor Lee Jordan jumped up and shouted towards the teacher’s chair: “Professor, can we have some mead? Professor!”

Dumbledore said cheerfully: “Why not?”

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

He waved his magic wand, and yellow mead suddenly appeared on every table. Although the quantity was small, the students were almost crazy with joy.

Only Wade’s expression remained unchanged, and he silently moved the apple juice in front of him.

“Don’t get drunk, kids.”

Amidst the cheers, Dumbledore said happily: “Lest you all oversleep and miss the train tomorrow morning.”

But no one of the students was listening anymore. They happily started pouring wine. The house elf also sent some special Christmas candies to the long table at the right time. The air was filled with sweet fragrance and happiness.

They all said——

“Merry Christmas at Hogwarts!”

“Buzz————”

Vader vaguely felt like he heard some long-lasting sound. He subconsciously opened another layer of vision and saw that the protective magic flowing throughout the castle was still the same.

It’s just… those golden magic words seem to be more active, and the slender magic lines have become clearer, as if the castle is also cheering with the students.

…

Early the next morning, while the drunken student was still rolling on the bed holding his head, Wade had already packed his things and left the dormitory.

He first went to the library and used a copy spell to make a copy of the book he was going to read during the holidays, so that he could skip the limit on the number of books he could borrow from the library.

It’s a pity that many books with powerful protective magic are prohibited from being copied, otherwise Vader will be able to build another library sooner or later.

There were a lot of books to copy, but Vader could go back in time. After he finished, Hermione also arrived at the library.

She borrowed several tomes for herself and stuffed them all into her schoolbag that had been cast with the Traceless Stretching Charm.

“Let’s go, Vader.” Hermione looked at the time and urged, “Everyone is leaving soon.”

“good.”

Wade put his schoolbag on his back and the two of them walked to Professor McGonagall’s office.

On the way, Hermione suddenly said: “Wade, will you, like Percy, keep taking these courses until you get twelve OWLs certificates?”

“Well, there is a plan.” Wade said.

He glanced at Hermione who looked troubled and said, “You don’t need to refer to my opinion, just follow your own ideas and rhythm.”

“I also hope to get all the certificates, but…”

Hermione frowned, showing a hint of imperceptible boredom: “Professor Trelawney’s divination class is completely meaningless. She always encourages students to talk nonsense. To be honest, arithmetic divination is much more interesting.”

“Every course has its own significance…but for now, there is really no need to take the Divination class.” Wade agreed.

Useful knowledge is all in books. Just listen to Professor Trelawney’s pretentious words.

Although Wade felt that he might have some talent in divination… he had always been very cautious about divination.

According to historical legends, few people who believed in divination had a good ending, and almost no one could change the so-called “bad” fate.

Instead of struggling in every possible way and not being able to change the outcome, or even having your own decision become one of the driving forces of your destiny, it is better to move forward without knowing anything.

“Then you plan to continue going up?” Hermione asked.

“Well… just think that I have the habit of collecting all achievements.” Wade said.

Hermione was speechless for a moment, then said: “Actually, the Muggle Studies class is not very helpful to me… I want to discuss it with my parents during this vacation, and maybe I will drop the two classes later.”

“It’s good. You’ve made yourself too tired during this period.” Wade agreed: “It will be more beneficial to learn a few courses that you are good at.”

Hermione glanced at Vader resentfully.

The other party didn’t seem to notice that it was because there was Wade, a student in the same grade who had taken all the courses, that made Hermione feel even more pressure. Even if she hated the Divination class, she always gritted her teeth and took it.

The reason for her hesitation was that as a Muggle-born student, Hermione felt vaguely inferior and uneasy.

So she kept pushing herself to do her best, fearing that she would not do well in the exam, that she had not prepared the questions asked by the professor, and that she would be surpassed by others.

But in Wade’s opinion, it seemed that the question she was hesitating about was simple – suitable, or not suitable.

Hermione breathed out secretly and suddenly made a decision——

Hold on for another half semester. If you really can’t get matching gains from those two courses, just… just give up.

While talking, Professor McGonagall’s office had arrived.

Vader knocked on the door, and then heard Professor McGonagall’s voice: “Come in!”

They walked into the office and took off the time-turners hanging around their necks. When she handed it over, Hermione breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously, but Wade was very reluctant to part with it.

Professor McGonagall couldn’t help but smile when she saw this: “Don’t worry, you can take it back in three weeks.”

She locked the time-turner into the box, put it back on the shelf, and said to the two of them, “Go…the carriage is already waiting for you.”

Vader said goodbye to Hermione and left. When he walked out of the castle, he saw students from several colleges preparing to set off. Hagrid and the Thestral carriage team were already waiting outside the castle.

This short yet long semester is finally over.
