Chapter 165 A Large Number of Freshmen

Unlike Bella and Sophie's sneaking away, no one cared about Ariana's sneaking away.

Ariana has a fragile feeling like glass. Although she is always smiling and her face is bright and moving, it always makes people feel that she will cry in the next second.

With a temperament that is easy to bully, beautiful and generous facial features, and a tragic fate, everyone watched her come into the world with their own eyes, making her the favorite of the group.

Even Hermione.

"What's wrong?"

"So lethargic?"

It was clear that Ariana was older, but Hermione looked at her with concern like a big sister.

Hermione was passionate about Fleur because of her knowledge as a disciple of Nick Flamel.

As for Ariana, she was completely concerned.

Her eyes were like knives and she stabbed Bagir hard, "Did you bully Anna?"

Bagir spread his hands.

Ariana muttered: "No. It has nothing to do with Bucky."

But looking at her index fingers poking each other, her breasts cupped and her eyebrows lowered, Hermione couldn't help but look suspicious in her eyes.

Ariana felt like her head was going to explode.

In the group, she sent the screenshot to the group, indicating that she, Fleur, and Hermione were all in the same car, and Barjir couldn't be so bold.

But no one believed it either.

In reality, the same was true for Hermione.

After all, Ariana's pitiful appearance would make them bully even if they became men themselves, let alone Bagir.

And there were Hermione and Fleur on the side as side dishes to accompany the wine.

But fortunately, everyone in the group no longer had doubts after Bagir reminded Hermione of her age.

But in reality, Bagir pointed righteously and said: "It was obviously you and Furong who neglected Anna while chatting with her. What does that have to do with me?"

The pads of his fingers glowed, and Ariana, who was stunned, suddenly felt a downward force coming from her chin, then downward, and then downward again.

In the eyes of others, she was the one who nodded her head in agreement.

At this time, Hermione also held Ariana's hand guiltily, and without waiting for her to defend herself, she started chatting about home affairs.

At this time, the fields passing by outside the car window seemed even more desolate, and a neat farmland had disappeared.

What follows is a forest, a meandering river and dark green hills.

In another carriage.

Harry looked at everything outside the window and sighed: "Time flies so slowly."

Ron gave a piece of cake to Goyle who was huddled in the corner, licked his fingers and said, "That's right."

He looked around, "Did we forget something?"

Draco patted his thigh, "I remembered what I forgot! I have completely mastered tattoo magic! Before, I could only summon one head!"

On the top of the carriage, Zhu Weiqiong in the cage cooed dissatisfiedly.

Harry looked up.

It was a gray owl about the size of a tennis ball.

It was a gift from Sirius to Ron to make up for the loss of Ron's pet.

It was left behind for Ginny.

"Ginny!" Harry woke up from a dream.

Ron frowned dissatisfied, "Why did you suddenly call my sister's name? She is still a child? She doesn't like you anymore."

"Your sister?" Draco revealed a gossipy look, "Pote, have you found a girlfriend?"

Lupin, and even Crabbe and Goyle, who were huddled in the corner, tilted their necks forward in interest.

Ron's ears turned red, "No! Stupid Malfoy!"

"Ginny likes Granger! Badger Granger! Harry, my sister can't stand it!"

Harry's face was full of embarrassment after being scolded, and he didn't know whether to put down his outstretched hand or move forward.

"Bajir Granger." Draco narrowed his eyes.

For a moment, he recalled the tragic past.

The red light split into three knocked them away but cleverly did not harm him, Crabbe and Goyle's stun spell.

And that handsome face that he couldn't help but admire.

Comfort before the forbidden forest.

A weird, fatherly smile.

All these things made him not know whether to hate or love Bajir.

Soon, Harry interrupted Draco's thoughts.

"That's not the point! The point is that Ginny ran out of the car!"

"Huh?" Ron turned around, "Isn't Ginny here-"

His fingers lingered in front of Draco's nose.

"Ginny's gone!"

Uh-huh!

"What is our little brother talking about?"

"Ginny's gone?"

Fred and George opened the car door with playful expressions on their faces.

"You didn't notice it, did you?"

"My sister ran out of the carriage?"

"We have to tell mom!" X2

As the door opened, Crabbe and Goyle stood up.

So much so that Lupine's figure was blocked by their two vertically and horizontally long bodies.

Otherwise, Fred and George wouldn't have ridiculed Ron first when they saw Lupine, who was probably the professor's adult wizard.

Ron frowned, "This has nothing to do with you! What are you doing here?"

And Harry noticed the blind spot, "Do you know where Ginny is?"

Fred and George nodded helplessly.

Then he said: "We are not here to see you."

"I heard there is a fire dragon here."

Draco puffed up his chest when he heard that it was him.

His movement exposed the gray-haired Lupine's head behind him.

Fred and George backed away quickly.

"Adult wizard!"

"If I'm not mistaken--"

"You are--"

"Our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor!"

"We are good students."

"I'm sorry to let you know our mediocre and irritable brother."

"Yes, not every Weasley is like him."

"You should have met Ginny, she would be excellent."

Ron gritted his teeth, "Hey!"

He clenched his fists and tried to get up, but was hugged by Harry.

"Why do you assume that I will be embarrassed?"

Lupin stood up and said something fair, "Ron is also very good. He knows a lot of weird knowledge."

"He even knows the color and style of the shorts of the confused giants in Wales in 1934."

Fred and George shrugged.

"Then count it as."

"Sorry, we have to go first."

"Since we can't see the dragon."

"Bye, little Ron."

The two then pulled out of the carriage and closed the door.

"What do you mean count it as." Ron muttered.

Draco, who was halfway through taking off his clothes, said, "How come there is no dragon? I haven't taken off all my clothes yet!"

Harry was full of black lines on his head, "We haven't asked where Ginny has gone yet! And Malfoy, seeing a homosexual looking at him hungrily, taking off his clothes in a hurry, anyone would want to escape."

He glanced outside.

At some point, it was already dark.

He saw a mountain and a forest under the deep purple sky.

The train seemed to slow down.

"It seems that it's not that time is passing slowly, but that the sun sets later today."

"We're about to get off the train."

Harry stood up.

"Huh?" Draco quickly put on his robe again.

Crabbe and Goyle couldn't wait to open the door.

"Draco, we're leaving first."

"We still have to change clothes."

Listening to the footsteps outside, the meowing of countless cats, and the cooing of some owls.

Ron touched his chin, "In that case, Ginny should be back by now."

"Her things are still with us."

"Harry, why are you looking at me?"

Harry rubbed his forehead, and now he felt the pain in his scar again.

But this time he was angry.

"How can I change clothes if you don't get up?"

"My suitcase is under your seat."

"Ah, ah——" Ron got up quickly, "I should change clothes too. Before Ginny comes back."

Hermione and the others who were with Basil didn't have to be so busy.

He just waved his fingers lightly in the air.

Everyone in the carriage changed into Hogwarts uniforms.

"This is not a transfiguration. I just replaced your clothes with the school robes in your suitcases."

"Okay, girls, we should leave."

"Wait at the train door early."

Hermione, Ariana, and Fleur didn't ask why.

They all saw the enthusiasm of others when Basil was in the crowd.

Basil secretly rejoiced.

If it weren't for the fact that the echo of Voldemort added both charm and deterrence, what they might have seen was a crowd of people rushing forward like zombies seeing a living person.

Ten minutes later.

The train had stopped.

Basil was the first to walk towards the train and headed for the dark platform.

Hermione and the others, as well as the crowd whose eyes were almost glued to Basil's back, followed closely behind.

"First-years, come here!" a familiar voice called out.

It was Hagrid, who was waving at the freshmen in the crowd attracted by Basil.

He was going to lead them to experience the traditional journey across the lake.

"And you! Dumbledore showed me your photo!"

In the chat group.

Madison: "I wish I could take a boat to Hogwarts."

Bajiel: "Of course."

"But remember to pass the [Dream Mark]."

"You don't have to spend points this way."

"I can also transform you into the size of first-year students, and you won't be noticed by others."

Madison: "I'm already here, when do we transform?"

Zoe: "Ditto."

Sophie: "? Since we won't be noticed, why do we need to transform into the size of freshmen."

Bajiel: "Ah, you don't."

Sophie: "What do you mean?"

Beatrice: "It's hopeless, idiot. It's because of the size of the boat. It can't accommodate adults."

"And you don't need to Huhu because you are no different from an 11-year-old child."

Sophie: "I have a C too! Bah! I mean Rubeus Hagrid, a half-giant, can do it, so why can't I?"

Bajiel: "The number of boats docked at the shore is determined by the number of new students."

"There are a lot of students enrolled this year."

"Many of them are from other countries."

"Although Ariana and Fleur are fifth-year students, they are also freshmen."

"They also have to take a boat to cross the lake."

"But if you want to sit comfortably in a small boat, it's best for adults to take one each."

"The same goes for fifth-year students with a physique similar to that of adults."

"Counting them, there is only one boat left at Hogwarts."

Ariana: "I won't take the small boat. Bucky, do you have a solution? That Hagrid is staring at me so closely."

Bajiel: "Of course, I noticed it a long time ago. Didn't you notice that Hagrid didn't respond after calling you?"

"He wasn't looking at you, but at the first-year students who insisted on following me."

Madison: "Except Ariana and Sweetie. There are 4 more people in the group."

"If I become a first-year ghost, it will be just enough."

Beatrice: "I didn't say I had to come."

Sophie: "You're not coming? Smiley face.jpg."

Beatrice: "I didn't say I wouldn't come."

Zoe, who has become a first-year student, has a serious face: "Many of them are from other countries?"

"No wonder so many first-year students follow you."

"Even if it's because of your charm, Bucky, you should know where to go when you hear the big guy calling you."

"All for the Philosopher's Stone?"

Bajiel: "Yes. Many wizard families in other countries send their family members of school age to enroll."

In reality, Madison, who also became an 11-year-old female ghost, was on the boat, squinting her eyes and looking around.

Then he said in the group: "I noticed that only Ariana and Fleur looked like adults."

Bajiel: "Of course, Dumbledore is not stupid. He rejected all foreign students over the age of 11."

"Although the [Pen of Acceptance] and [Book of Admission] will also record foreign wizards under the age of 17 who enter the country."

"But it doesn't say that the principal cannot refuse."

"Okay, I'm almost at Hogwarts Castle."

"The Thestrals are really much faster."

"You should also remember to leave before meeting Dumbledore."

"It's still difficult to hide from the sight of a great wizard with just the concealment magic I left behind."

The chat panel was pulled away from the retina.

In the carriage, Bajiel listened to Ariana's little adult-like popularization of the Thestrals to Hermione, and looked at the window with a smile.

The carriage passed through the gate with winged boar sculptures on both sides and drove along the wide driveway.

Hogwarts was getting closer and closer, and many lighted windows were dimly shining behind the mist of the night.

Their carriage stopped at the stone steps in front of the two oak doors.

Basil jumped out of the carriage.

"Ariana, you just wait here for a while."

"Wait for Hagrid and the others."

"Otherwise Dumbledore will blame Hagrid. He promised Dumbledore that he would take you on the boat."

"You are also enchanted, and others will subconsciously stay away from you."

"It will disappear within ten seconds after Hagrid arrives."

Ariana nodded obediently.

Hermione reluctantly let go of Ariana's hand.

Following Basil up the stone steps, they walked into the cave-like deep hallway.

Torches were lit in the hallway, and the marble staircase was extraordinary.

Walk through the hallway and through the two doors on the right.

Everything seemed to be the same as before.

The hall was still magnificent, and it was decorated for the new semester banquet.

Hundreds of candles floated above the tables, illuminating the golden plates and goblets.

There were already a few students at the four long college tables.

Just now, while Baqier and the others were chatting, he was the first to walk in.

There was a fifth table at the top of the hall, and the faculty sat on one side of the table, facing their students.

But unlike in the past, the hall seemed to have been expanded.

The four college tables were also much longer.

At first glance, there was no difference.
