Hogwarts Collector, I cast a spell with the Eye of God - Chapter 137
As the express train roared to platform 9 and 3/4, students picked up their luggage and got off the train.
They walked through the wall, as if they had crossed an invisible boundary, and stepped into the bustling King’s Cross Station.
In this noisy station, Ye Ting caught the figures of the Weasleys.
George and Fred were actually holding a toilet seat in their hands, and handed it to their sister Ginny with a grin.
Mrs. Weasley’s anger instantly erupted like a volcano. She grabbed one of her sons by the ear and shouted,”George, what did I tell you when school started?”
“Hey, Mom, I’m Fred!”Fred, who was mistaken, shouted with a bitter face.
“”Oh, I’m sorry… Fred!” Mrs. Weasley not only did not let go, but twisted her ear even harder.
Ginny, who was standing next to her, had grown a lot taller than before school started.
The little girl, holding the toilet seat in her hand, skipped around and looked at the people around her, wanting to ask if the boy with black hair and glasses was Harry Potter.
She had already learned about Harry’s appearance from the letters her brothers wrote to their family.
However, when the words were about to come out of her mouth, she inexplicably changed her words and said,”Who is the boy with black hair but no glasses?”
There was no way, because that face was too handsome and unforgettable at first sight.
“That’s Ye Ting, I should have mentioned it to you.”
“That’s Ye Ting, I mentioned it to you.”
George escaped by luck and turned to explain to his sister,”The most outstanding little wizard in Hogwarts, he has helped us a lot this semester… Why, haven’t you always been interested in Harry? Why did you suddenly……”
He noticed his sister’s blushing cheeks and couldn’t help but let out a long and strange”Oh!”——”
Then he teased,”I see, then you have to be careful, because every witch wants to be friends with him.”
As he said that, he pointed at the girl next to Ye Ting.
Unfortunately, Zhang Qiu was taken away by his family, leaving only Hermione and Susan.
Susan turned her head away unconsciously, as if she didn’t want to be involved in this storm, while Hermione waved her fist threateningly, as if warning George not to say anything more.
But Ye Ting walked up to her generously, shook hands with the girl, and had a handsome smile on his lips:”You are Ginny Weasley, right? Your brother and I have mentioned you… You are as cute as they say. Nice to meet you.” The little girl’s cheeks flushed slightly, she shyly shook hands with Ye Ting, and then hid behind her mother like a little rabbit.
After saying goodbye to the Weasley family, the others found their parents and said goodbye to each other.
During this period, Ye Ting also inadvertently saw Neville’s grandmother, Mrs. Longbottom.
She finally changed out of that eye-catching dress – perhaps she felt that comfort was more important in this hot summer.
Time passed by minute by minute, until finally, they finally met Hermione’s parents.
At the exit, an amiable man was standing there.
His cheeks were rosy and fat, his hair was a little sparse, and he was wearing a blue shirt with buttons on the collar. Although the seams of the shirt were a little tight, it did not prevent him from giving people a friendly and easy-going feeling.
This was Hermione’s father. He seemed to have heard of Ye Ting from Mrs. Granger a long time ago, and there was a gleam of curiosity and scrutiny in his eyes.
Hermione’s father looked quite strong, but Ye Ting was confident that he would definitely not be able to beat him… Hey, why did he suddenly have such an idea?
“”Dad!” Hermione shouted in a gentle voice that she never used to hear, and then she ran over like a happy little bird.
Ye Ting had no choice but to follow him. After all, this was Hermione’s parent, and he couldn’t be rude in front of others.
“You must be Ye Ting, right? Minmin mentioned you many times in her letter, saying that you are a rare person who is a little better than her.”Mr. Granger shook hands with Ye Ting enthusiastically.
“Hello, Mr. Granger. Actually, I am only a little bit better than Hermione. Our grades are actually not much different.”Ye Ting responded modestly.
Hearing this, Mr. Granger’s smile became even brighter, as if even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were laughing along with him.”Minmin has always been the top student since she was young. She is a very well-behaved child… Welcome to our house. But now, we’d better get in the car first.”
Hermione’s house may seem ordinary by the standards of Hogwarts, but if you are in London, where every inch of land is valuable, it is definitely a luxury house. The two-story building gleamed in the afterglow of the setting sun, with layers of windows, especially the incredibly high floor-to-ceiling windows, as if silently announcing how spacious the living room is.
“”Dear, could you please open the door?” Mr. Granger called kindly.
Then, a slow sound of footsteps gradually approached.
The door was opened, and Hermione’s mother appeared elegantly in front of everyone.
Her blue eyes were so deep that they seemed to be able to see through people’s hearts, like a clear spring. Her tall figure was tightly wrapped in a large and beautiful woolen shawl, and the leather jacket added a bit of coolness. The ruddy face was like a ripe apple, exuding an attractive luster.
Although he had met him once before, after seeing Mr. Granger’s appearance, Ye Ting was secretly glad in his heart that Hermione inherited more of her mother’s appearance.
Of course, with Hermione’s current cuteness, Ye Ting believed that she would far surpass her mother when she grew up.
“You are back! Hello, Mr. Ye Ting, please come in.”
She greeted enthusiastically, pointing upstairs,”There are all kinds of toys in the entertainment room on the second floor. I hope you like them.”
“Toys? I’m more looking forward to seeing some books and newspapers, especially those about arbitrage trading and hedge fund trends. However, I still have to thank you very much for your hospitality.”Ye Ting responded with a smile.
Hermione’s mother was initially very happy that her daughter could enter Hogwarts, but since she and Hermione went to Diagon Alley again during the Christmas holidays and bought a lot of books about the wizarding world, she began to feel quite nervous.
Some of the gloomy facts hidden in those books gently unveiled part of the veil of the magical world to them.
They finally realized that it was not as sweet as a fairy tale.
In the hearts of the couple, the worries about sending their daughter to this unknown world grew like weeds – especially when she matched the clues in the book with the real days one by one, an astonishing guess came to Mrs. Granger’s mind: her own mother, Hermione’s grandmother, might not be a Muggle, but a hidden witch!
What’s even more shocking is that She may have met with misfortune during World War II, when Grindelwald was reigning in terror, rather than dying in childbirth as her father had said.
But Professor McGonagall’s previous”reminder” still lingered in her mind.
If Minmin could not get a formal magic education, then the magic talent that was originally a blessing would very likely become a curse.
Therefore, even with a thousand knots in her heart, she could not make up her mind to let Hermione give up the magic world.
But the boy in front of her was talking about those financial terms easily, as if the wizarding world was no different from the bustling”New London” central business district.
This made her feel a little uncertain again.
But no matter what, she tried to put the most gentle smile on her face, trying to add a touch of joy to this family. (To read the violent novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
“”Sorry, come with me first.”
Her daughter said firmly, grabbing the boy’s left sleeve and pulling him into the corridor without saying anything.
Mrs. Granger turned around involuntarily and watched the two little figures walk away. The boy waved happily at her.
Then, Hermione took the boy to the second floor, and the door was slammed shut with a bang.
Mr. Granger stretched his neck and shouted to the second floor,”You don’t have to close the door. If you need anything, just say it. We are downstairs and we will definitely hear it.”
“Could you please not reveal your thoughts right away? My father will only treat your thoughts as childish tricks.”
In the room, Hermione frowned and said dissatisfiedly
“Minmin, don’t get excited. Actually, it’s nothing. I can give them a share of the profits. Once they succeed, money won’t be a problem anymore.”The boy tried to comfort her.
“It’s useless. Do you think they are short of money? Also, can you please stop calling me Minmin?……”Hermione’s face flushed, and she shouted in anger.
Ye Ting then realized that the Grangers were both dentists – a standard middle-class profession in the West, with a good income, no wonder they could live in such a villa.
But this also means that simple inducement may not work.
“Min… cough cough, how about I give you a book? Everyone knows that giving books and paintings is not a bribe, but a noble favor.”The boy coughed awkwardly and suggested
“You seem to have guessed their preferences correctly.” Hermione’s tone softened a little.
“In fact, there is no need to guess. Looking at your usual behavior, I can imagine it.”The boy smiled proudly.
Soon, Hermione’s parents called them downstairs for dinner.[]
The table in the restaurant was a bit exaggeratedly long. With only two adults and two children sitting on it, it seemed particularly empty.
Moreover, the entire table was covered with clean white linen, and the plates were replaced with exquisite dinner plates, all of which were porcelain that looked very valuable, making people sigh at the grandeur of this meal.
On the dining table, square porcelain plates of various colors were arranged in an orderly manner, filled with healthy, low-fat, light, fresh, and original dishes.
Ye Ting only took a light bite, and he couldn’t help but sympathize with Hermione.
However, everyone’s minds were not really on these dishes.
The topic naturally turned to the study and life at Hogwarts.
Ye Ting keenly noticed that the Grangers’ eyes were full of expectations. They obviously hoped that he would let slip and tell them some interesting things about the school that Minmin had not mentioned.
“”Can you tell me what interesting things happened to you this semester?” Mrs. Granger asked with a smile.
But Ye Ting felt that the pronunciation of the word”interesting” was a bit strange, and it sounded more like”important”.
“Of course, a lot of things happened this semester.”
Ye Ting responded with a smile, but in his heart he began to recall what he and Hermione had experienced this semester:
First, we went on a night tour in the middle of the night, breaking through a chessboard composed of hellish guard dogs, vines that could kill people, flying keys, 32 moving stone chess pieces, and levels composed of fierce fire and poison, and were finally caught by the headmaster.
Then we broke into the forbidden forest on a dark night and witnessed the evil scene of the dark wizard sucking the blood of the unicorn, and even witnessed his cruel act of setting the forest on fire. Even more shocking Shockingly, we also discovered a shocking secret that a professor attempted to murder a student.
However, after an in-depth investigation, we found that the real murderer was another professor!
He is also a hidden murderer, and his conspiracy is chilling.
And this person will come back in the future and bring a greater threat.
Should I tell Hermione and her husband about this? (Oh my god)
Thinking of this, Ye Ting suddenly felt a burning sensation on his face.
He looked up and found that Hermione was shooting”death rays” at him with her sharp eyes.”
“Hogwarts is a great place. Every teacher is as friendly as an elder. Our three meals a day are carefully prepared by a team of top chefs. Hermione learned how to violate the second law of thermodynamics in the spells class. However,���The school is so big, the distance between classrooms is ridiculous, and we have to sprint like athletes during the ten-minute break.”
The rays of death turned into admiring eyes at this moment, and even the air became gentle.
While chatting, Mr. Granger curiously asked whether Professor McGonagall, who was kind and amiable and favored Hermione, gave Hermione extra points at school.
Hermione smiled and replied,”Indeed, Professor McGonagall takes good care of me.”
Mr. Granger sighed with a little regret,”Hermione is a very smart child. If she were not a witch, it would be easy for her to go to medical school to become a dentist, or go to law school to become a lawyer.”
As they chatted, Ye Ting’s heart moved, and he suddenly realized that no matter how talented he was in school, he was always treated as a child in the eyes of the Grangers who did not understand magic.
It seems that he has to adjust his strategy and find another way.
Hermione was still talking and joking with her parents in a child’s tone, and her eyes moved and she quickly winked at Ye Ting, and that look clearly said:”Be patient, talk about it later if there is anything.”
“Is she really as good as you in all subjects except broom flying and potions?” Mr. Granger confirmed again.
“Yes, she is better than everyone except me. Before the first class, she had memorized the textbook word for word. It is really amazing.”
