Chapter 324 A Safe Train Journey
The red train was driving in the wilderness, making a clanking sound, and the carriage was shaking slightly.
Midway through, Wade went to the bathroom. When he returned to the cubicle, he noticed that there were very few students staying in the corridor this year.
Usually there will be many students with their cubicle doors open and running around to greet friends who have been away for the whole summer. The Weasley brothers will take the opportunity to sell some gadgets they made during the holidays, and Malfoy will also bring His lackeys were looking for trouble for Harry.
But this time, the corridor was very quiet, and many cubicle doors were closed. When Wade walked past, he could hear bursts of laughter coming from inside, and a man asked in an innocent voice:
“Why do you put butter on your face?…Oh, Moses smelled of roses…”
Well, Vader knew why the hallways were so quiet - everyone was hiding in the cubicles watching TV.
Wade stood by the window and looked outside. Thick dark clouds had completely blocked the sunlight, and the distant mountains had become blurry.
After a while, the rain began to pound on the carriage, making people feel very peaceful.
The lights in the corridor turned on, and the train glass turned into a natural black mirror. Wade could no longer see the scenery outside clearly, and could only see his own appearance on the glass.
A student who was going to the toilet trotted past, and ran back after a while. He glanced at Wade in front of the window strangely, said nothing, and rushed into his cubicle quickly.
A few minutes later, there was another person beside Wade.
Michael stared at the glass for a long time and asked strangely: "Vade, what are you looking at?"
"Didn't see anything."
"——Then you are still watching?"
"I thought I would see something..."
"What?"
"We'll be at Hogwarts in half an hour, right?"
"almost."
"Forget it." Wade turned around and said, "Go back, it's a bit cold outside."
"It should have been like this a long time ago!" Michael muttered: "You should stay in the cubicle when you are in a daze. I thought something happened to you!"
Wade returned to the cubicle and saw Ryan and Theo sticking their heads out from a distance. They both smiled after seeing them.
He smiled unconsciously and glanced at the dark night outside again.
The train did not stop midway, there was no frost on the windows where the rain was flowing, and the temperature did not drop suddenly.
This time, although there were three escapees, the dementors did not come to intercept the Hogwarts train.
Perhaps it is because the Ministry of Magic does not believe that Peter Pedillo has the courage to risk his revenge; or perhaps because Dumbledore's attitude is tougher than in the plot, so Fudge does not dare to make a mistake.
The train entered the station without incident, the doors opened, students poured out of the train, and then there were complaints from everywhere.
It was still raining outside, the road was muddy and slippery, and there was even ice on the platform.
Vader raised his wand, and a beam of invisible magic spread into the air along the tip of the wand in his hand, forming a transparent umbrella that blocked the rain.
Michael pulled Padma in with a whoosh, hid under the "umbrella", and said happily: "Great, I put my umbrella in the suitcase and forgot to take it out."
Padma smiled and said, "Thank you, Vader. I put on makeup today and I didn't want to get wet in the rain."
Parvati, who was also pulled over, crossed her arms and was a little embarrassed to find anything to say: "Vade, what kind of spell is this?"
"Open the umbrella..." Before Wade could finish his words, he just expanded the umbrella slightly, and a few more people crowded around him.
Wade: "..."
He silently looked at the many smiling faces around him, and at the same time he heard Hagrid saying loudly: "First graders come here!"
Wade stretched out his free left hand, and seven or eight leaves on the tree suddenly flew in front of him, hovering, and then he tapped the leaves one by one with his wand.
The green leaves quickly unfolded and expanded, forming a large green umbrella. The tips drooped, and the petioles were elongated and curved, becoming just enough to be held in the hand.
Then Vader waved his hand, and the leaf umbrella flew towards his friends who did not bring umbrellas. Everyone reached out to hold the "umbrella handle", and Vader's surroundings suddenly became empty.
"Wow--"
There was a burst of exclamations around, mixed with childish admiration.
"Is this magic?" a little boy with a pot head asked eagerly.
When Wade and others took a look, they saw a dozen freshmen standing next to them. The children without umbrellas were holding on to their hoods to protect themselves from the rain, looking at the leaf umbrellas floating in the air with envy and admiration.
"Yes, are you envious? You will also do it in the future."
Michael grabbed a handful and put it on Sister Padma's head. The leaf umbrella was big enough to cover two or three people. Then he took another handful and handed them to the two little girls among the freshmen.
"You're lying!" A little girl with a pale face and holding a small flower umbrella suddenly said: "My sister is about the same age as you, but she can't change, and now she still has a schoolbag on her head!"
"Shut up, Astoria!" Daphne, who was carrying her schoolbag, shouted in embarrassment and embarrassment.
Astoria shrugged her shoulders, with an expression on her face - "You see, that's it, right?", and said unforgivingly: "I reminded you to bring an umbrella, it's you. Forgot!"
Daphne rolled her eyes in anger, stopped talking to her sister, and trotted to the carriage.
Veder conjured up a few more leaf umbrellas and distributed them to the freshmen. The children thanked him excitedly. The freshmen holding the leaf stalks looked like they were holding up some kind of scepter, with proud expressions on their faces.
Astoria looked at the translucent leaves, crawled under them, and then folded her small flower umbrella and handed it over.
"I don't need this umbrella anymore. Can you help me give it to Daphne? It's quite hard to carry a schoolbag on my head all the time."
Everyone was silent, and then Michael reached out to take it and said with a smile: "Okay."
Astoria's bright eyes swept across the scarves hanging around the necks of a group of people.
Ravenclaw... this is also Ravenclaw... Hufflepuff... Gryffindor...
No Slytherin.
She smiled and said, "Thank you, you are so nice."
Hagrid, who was like a giant black bear in the dark night, took away the trembling first-year freshmen, while Veder and others went to take a carriage.
When passing by the noisy carriage team, Michael saw Daphne, waved his wand, and let the umbrella fly towards her.
In the sound of rain, I don't know if Daphne thanked him. I only saw her holding an umbrella over her head, and her body was already soaked.
In fact, her friend Pansy also brought an umbrella, but she was always close to Malfoy, and even the hem of her robe was wet with mud, let alone taking care of Daphne.
"Daphne's sister is still very cute, isn't she?" Hermione suddenly said, "Different from Pansy's group."
"But she will definitely enter Slytherin." Ron said affirmatively: "Wait a month and you will see her again, and there will be no difference."
