Chapter 870 Reading Wizards

The new semester has begun, and Duran also sat at the professor's dining table in a dignified manner. Facing hundreds of energetic children, he felt great. Although he was in the corner, Duran didn't mind.

Still led by Professor McGonagall, the first-year freshmen were to be sorted. However, Harry and Ron were not seen. They were late and did not show up until the end of the sorting.

It can be seen that Professor McGonagall's expression was obviously wrong. Obviously, she was worried about Harry and Ron.

"George, Fred, where are your brother and Harry?"

"I don't know."

"Not sure."

"Maybe they were captured by mountain monsters, or maybe they were taken away by dragons." The two brothers were not worried about their brother and Harry at all.

"Did they get on the train with you?"

"I don't know, the two of us left first, and they were behind."

Unable to get any information, Professor McGonagall thought she would go to check the luggage to see if their luggage was on the train.

As soon as they arrived at the door, they found Ron and Harry running in in a panic, dragging their luggage, looking embarrassed: "You better explain your behavior to me."

The two looked at each other and showed a bad expression.

Hermione finally saw the girl in the hallucination. It turned out that it was not an illusion, but a real girl, Luna Lovegood, a freshman who was assigned to Ravenclaw.

It was a girl who could arouse Hermione's interest enough. Hermione decided to ask Luna to join her reading club.

Duran, who was preparing to return to his dormitory, saw Snape and Dumbledore both entered Professor McGonagall's office, and followed curiously. It turned out that the trial meeting of Harry and Ron was being held.

Ron looked miserable, as if he might be expelled at any time.

Harry was confused and didn't realize how bad their behavior was. Using a flying car in London might expose wizards to the Muggles. The Ministry of Magic spent a lot of energy to find witnesses and erase their memories.

"Your behavior violated at least fifteen school rules and also damaged a precious Whomping Willow."

"We are the ones who were hurt by it. It almost killed us." Ron retorted, but this could not change the fact that they made a mistake.

"I think expulsion is a very good choice." Snape said without losing time.

"Professor Snape, thank you for your advice, but I will deal with the Gryffindor students." Professor McGonagall did not think of such a severe punishment. They are still children. As long as they learn the lesson, there is no need to expel them.

"Let's go get the luggage." Ron seemed to have known the final result, which was nothing more than expulsion.

"What are you doing, Mr. Ron? Even if you want to be expelled, it's not today." Professor McGonagall has already thought of a solution: "I want to let you know the seriousness of your behavior. I will write to your family, and you need to do labor to reflect on your behavior."

Professor Snape was very unhappy: "If you were Slytherin students, I would definitely expel you for making such a big mistake, definitely."

"Professor Snape, they are the lions of Gryffindor." Dumbledore was very satisfied with this punishment, because he knew that Harry Potter was important.

"Since you have to do labor, why not hand them over to me? The right tower needs a thorough cleaning, and I just happen to be short of manpower." Duran said.

Of course, anyway, the important thing is labor.

The new semester officially began, but Ron and Harry had a not-so-good start.

But Hermione was very proud because she got Professor McGonagall's permission to use the classroom for reading club activities after class. So Hermione now has space for activities, and the only thing left is to find team members.

I drew a poster and posted it in the corridor of the school. The requirements are: female, love reading, willing to spend time writing book reviews, and happy to express my own opinions.

The name of the reading club is "Reading Wizards".

Hermione personally invited Luna to join the reading club. Because of two consecutive coincidences, they finally met each other, which made Hermione think that she and Luna were destined to be together.

However, after getting to know each other, Hermione immediately changed her opinion, because Luna was the weirdest girl she knew, and she was simply talking nonsense.

"Hermione, if you eat pudding for dinner every day, you will be lucky throughout your life. You should try it." After joining the reading club, Luna often promoted her weird ideas to Hermione.

Hermione didn't know whether eating pudding every night would bring luck, but she would definitely get fat: "Luna, what if there is no pudding?"

"Then the luck will be reduced, I will choose to eat carrots." Luna's diet is not determined according to her own taste, but according to the kind of illusory way similar to divination. There is no reason at all, and there is no persuasiveness.

Of course, apart from these incomprehensible quirks, Luna is still very thoughtful as a wizard, and can often inspire Hermione. Hermione did not dislike Luna just because of her weirdness. Besides, it seems that other female students have no interest in her "Reading Wizards" except Luna.

Hermione wanted to invite Grant to join the reading club, but was rejected because she had to take notes for Duran and Ron. She had no self at all, and it felt like she was there to clean up the mess.

As for other wizards, let alone Slytherin, they will not join an organization of Muggle-blooded wizards. Gryffindor girls actually like sports more than reading. Ravenclaw students like to read quietly alone, and Hufflepuff students are not good at expressing themselves.

Originally, Luna was only interested in "Reading Wizards", but Hermione personally invited her, so Luna, who had never had any friends, agreed to join.

Hermione's new organization encountered difficulties at the beginning.

However, Hermione would not give up. She was a Gryffindor who dared to do and take responsibility. Even if there were only two people, she would carry out activities. Start by reading the novels that need to be studied in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, take notes and write a little bit of reading experience. Then, according to Duran's suggestion, print it out and distribute it.

Duran hoped that Hermione could attract more members in this way, and Luna also played a very important role. Her father was the editor of a magic magazine and had some understanding of the work of an editor.

So the first reading experience tabloid written by only two little girls was interviewed and circulated in the girls' dormitories of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw.
