Hogwarts on the Tip of the Tongue

Chapter 631 The Holiday Begins with Apokalis

"Yes, as you can see, this is a fishing boat."

Grindelwald smiled and nodded, and replied softly with a happy expression.

"I remember I communicated to you in advance that its size is a bit larger than a normal ship."

Behind him, dozens of Destiny Group wizards wearing dark black windbreakers looked at the white-haired wizard not far away with vigilance. The order they had received before was - if an unexpected situation occurs, everyone must try their best to find a way. Delay time to ensure that the Hyperion has time to start the "space jump" again and leave the Hogwarts domain.

Fortunately, Dumbledore didn't seem too aggressive, other than looking a little surprised.

In other words, a little more than a little bit more...

Dumbledore took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.

There must not be a battle here, otherwise no matter what the outcome, if that big guy in the sky accidentally falls down, the Hogwarts Castle that has been passed down for thousands of years may have to be extensively rebuilt.

The old wizard rubbed his brows, searched for suitable words, and then asked in a deep voice.

"Then let me ask you, why does a...well...ship need such a huge volume?!"

"Oh, you know, there are many dangerous large magical creatures living in the sea outside. If the size of the ship is slightly smaller, it will be a very unsafe thing for the people on it - according to I know that there is a giant squid living in the Black Lake of Hogwarts, and it would be terrible if the boat is smashed by it."

Grindelwald answered without thinking, as if he had expected that Dumbledore would ask him this question.

Dumbledore's cheek twitched, and he subconsciously raised his head and glanced at the "big ship" in the sky.

If he saw it correctly, the huge thing floating in the sky now is at least as long as three Quidditch pitches in series. It stretches almost from the tower of Hogwarts Castle to one-third of the Black Lake. Shrouded in this huge ship called the Hyperion.

The premise is that this thing can really be called a boat!

In Albus Dumbledore's opinion, calling something bigger than Hogwarts Castle a ship was simply outrageous!

Glancing at Grindelwald who looked calm, the old man gave up the desire to delve deeper into this issue - there is no doubt that this old guy is as shameless as the little devil - and instead asked other problems.

"Ship, okay... Then why does a fishing boat need additional space transfer capabilities?"

"This is to facilitate fishing expeditions, to be as inconspicuous as possible, and to protect the magical world and the Law of Secrecy!"

Grindelwald answered with a smile as he played with the wand in his hand nonchalantly.

Dumbledore raised his eyebrows high, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone.

"What about the flight function? Are there schools of fish flying in the sky?!"

"It is also to facilitate long-distance fishing, and not to damage the waters of Hogwarts. Of course, if there is a fishing ban season, we may also consider hunting in the sky to provide Hogwarts with three meals a day. Needed.”

"Oh? The release of the large-scale disillusionment curse is also for hunting?!"

"No, this is to comply with the Statute of Secrecy and avoid being discovered by Muggles about the existence of magic."

"You actually sometimes take the initiative to uphold the "Confidentiality Law"? It really surprises me."

"People always change, Albus. After so many years, I am deeply aware of the mistakes I have made... Don't worry, with all the detection methods used by Muggles today, they will not be able to detect this huge ship in advance. guy."

Grindelwald shrugged disapprovingly and grinned, amusement flashing in his eyes.

"As for the matters at the Ministry of Magic, if you think it will be a headache to deal with, I can do it tomorrow..."

"Tomorrow? Wait, why not today, now?!"

Before Grindelwald could finish speaking, Dumbledore's expression changed slightly, and he looked nervously at the first-generation Dark Lord not far away. He had been stimulated enough today, and he felt that his heart was beginning to feel a little faint. It hurts.

Glancing at the somewhat fussy Headmaster of Hogwarts, Grindelwald shook his head helplessly.

"Don't worry, Albus. It's not a bad thing, but I have made arrangements tonight, a very important appointment, and I need to go to London to do something. If you are worried, you can come with me. "

"London? What do you want to do again?!"

Dumbledore frowned and looked at Grindelwald standing in front of him with a solemn expression.

From the beginning, he noticed that Grindelwald was dressed very formally today. He was wearing a black double-breasted woolen coat, a shirt of the same color, a handmade vest, silver buttons, and long riding boots. He looked particularly handsome. .

Facing Dumbledore's question, Grindelwald raised his eyebrows slightly and showed an evil smile.

"Oh, you will know if you come with me..."

Meanwhile, on the other side, the Hogwarts Express.

With the constant shaking of the train and the laughter of Elena and others along the way, the wilderness outside the window became clearer and crisper, and the villages and roads became more and more tidy.

The train passed through non-magical Muggle villages at high speed. After the witch played by Luna accurately poisoned and killed the last werewolf to end the game, the girls kicked the boys out of the compartment and began to take off their wizard clothes. The robe was replaced by a jacket, a blouse, a British-style skirt...

Woo————

With the long whistle, the train finally stopped at Platform 9 of King's Cross Station.

Then, it took Elena and the others a long time before they all walked out of the platform.

In order to prevent students from attracting the attention of Muggles, the Ministry of Magic specially arranged a wizened old guard at the partition wall. Only two or three people were allowed to pass in batches at a time. This made Elena regret not getting more in advance. Food waiting in hand.

"Well, see you in Dorset in a month!"

"Well, okay! Let's meet again at Mr. Scamander's house!"

"Remember to write to me, Elena!"

Luna, Hannah and Hermione waved to Elena and pushed the trolley through the exit together.

Elena, who was behind the three people, was assigned to a group with Harry and Draco.

"Harry, Draco, remember to keep in touch during the holidays... Especially you, Draco, remember to write to Harry, do you hear me? I don't want you to forget everyone after a holiday. "

"Of course, Harry, please remember to ask Hedwig to send me a letter. Just write the address to Malfoy Manor."

"No problem, Draco, keep in touch! See you next semester!"

Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy hugged each other, bumped their fists, and followed Elena through the platform wall leading to the Muggle world.

…………

And at the same time.

Benitez, who was waiting for Elena to come out outside the platform, suddenly felt someone tap him lightly on the shoulder.

The man turned his head in confusion, and saw a well-dressed old man appearing behind him at some point, and said softly in a pleasant tone:

"You must be Mr. Benitez, right? Introduce yourself, my name is Otto Apocalypse, and I want to talk to you about Elena, who is also my granddaughter, Teresa Apocalypse. This thing..."
