Days wandering around Hogwarts

Chapter 423 Enjoy Your Vacation

"How to do?"

"no solution anymore."

"Everyone, enjoy your vacation."

……

The Weasley children counted the money with Harry and Hermione, chatting helplessly at the same time.

Business at Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes is booming and everything is sold out today.

The students in charge of production had already waved their wands until they were smoking and were exhausted. They couldn't continue even if they were paid more.

Fred and George had no choice but to take inventory, pay the bill, and then start playing.

Not long after, Arthur came home from get off work and happily said to everyone, "I got tickets for the final the day after tomorrow. We can all go!"

Tickets have been a bit tight lately, and he had a hard time scraping together enough tickets for the whole family.

Arthur continued, "I'm going to borrow a tent tomorrow. Everyone will get up at three o'clock the day after tomorrow..."

Ginny asked miserably, "Do we really have to get up so early?"

Arthur replied: "Yes, we must go to the competition venue through the method prescribed by the Ministry."

"There have been too many disturbances recently. Starting tomorrow, the audience will be prohibited from passing through the fireplace and Apparating in the Dancing Grass Restaurant tent."

The most depressed person after hearing the news was Percy, who had taken time out to take the Apparition test half a month ago and passed it, but now he refuses to walk if he can Apparate.

The next morning, everyone happily rode on broomsticks in the nearby woods and played a Quidditch game with only the Quaffle.

Harry found it quite fun to play with a ball in the woods while hiding in the trees.

Hermione tried to play with the others but gave up after crashing into a tree twice.

Near noon, Luna, who was picking mushrooms, appeared in the woods, and Harry and Hermione realized that she lived nearby.

Luna invited Harry and Hermione to her home for tea, and the two spent an unforgettable afternoon.

Early in the morning on the day of the final, before daybreak, everyone in the Burrow woke up.

Ron asked Harry, "Are you dizzy now?"

Harry shook his head, not feeling dizzy these past few days.

Molly got up in the early hours of the morning to prepare breakfast for everyone. While distributing the food, she kept saying to Ginny and Hermione, "Don't separate from everyone else. Be careful of the Americans."

"Recently everyone has been saying that Americans are kidnapping little girls from all over the world and forcing them to do very bad things."

Arthur said, "Don't worry, the Aurors are in the camp, nothing will happen."

Molly continued to nag: "That's good, but you still have to be careful..."

After breakfast, everyone carried their bags and headed for Stoat Mountain. On the way, Ron asked, "What are these Americans that mother was talking about?"

Percy replied, "I heard from my colleagues in the Ministry that someone from the American Muggle government captured girls from all over the world and took them to an island. Later, a wizard rescued them."

"The wizard seems to be called...Steve Rogers."

"The Magical Congress of the United States is very angry about this matter because Rogers has seriously violated the International Statute of Secrecy."

Harry said quickly: "But he saved a lot of people."

Percy shrugged and said, "I heard there was a big argument in the International Confederation of Wizards. The issue of whether wizards should use magic to save Muggles has been brought up again."

"Right now, the Magical Congress of the United States is looking for Rogers, and the warrant has been sent to our department."

Everyone was interested in chatting at first, but soon they lost interest. It was very cold in the early morning, and they didn't feel warm after walking for a long time. Ginny kept putting her cold hands in front of her mouth and breathing, and Fred almost fell down when he stepped on a rabbit hole.

When we reached the top of the mountain, even Charlie, the strongest man, was sweating.

Next, we need to find the door key. There are two black figures on the other side of the mountain top, also looking around with their heads down.

Presently the voice of Amos Diggory was heard: "Over here, Arthur, come here! Son, we've got it!"

Everyone quickly gathered around, and Amos was holding a torn leather shoe in his hand.

Arthur introduced everyone to each other, and Cedric Diggory greeted everyone warmly.

There was still some time left, so Amos deliberately said casually, "Cedric just started his summer vacation last week. He was called by Dumbledore to take extra classes, which started on July 1st."

"Make-up classes?!" Hermione was particularly sensitive to such things. "What kind of make-up classes are they? Advanced classes? Why are they suddenly being made up?"

Cedric said hesitantly, "Well...it's some targeted training, but I can't tell you the reason yet."

Amos said proudly, "Those chosen by Dumbledore are the best students, aren't they?"

After he finished speaking, he patted his son on the shoulder.

Hermione bit her lip tightly, feeling somewhat unhappy that she was not qualified for the remedial lessons.

Percy suddenly thought of something and asked Cedric, "Is it to prepare for the event next school year?"

Cedric asked slightly surprised: "You know that?"

Percy said seriously, "I shouldn't have known, but some rumors got to my ears on their own."

Charlie said to Cedric, "Your training must be very hard."

Cedric nodded and said, "Yeah."

Harry asked curiously, "What kind of training is it?"

Cedric shook his head and said, "Professor Dumbledore won't let us say more."

Harry and the others were already waiting, but Cedric didn't want to say anything more.

Arthur checked his pocket watch and asked Amos, "Are we waiting for anyone else?"

Without waiting for Amos to answer, the Lovegood father and daughter climbed to the top of the mountain panting.

Luna was dressed up today. Her skirt was made of countless Irish flags. Her wide-brimmed pointed hat looked like a mountain covered with grass. It was too dark to see the type of grass.

Mr. Lovegood pulled his daughter over and said breathlessly, "Tickets are so hard to get. I only got them at 5:27 yesterday afternoon."

Arthur looked at his pocket watch and said, "Hurry up, the time is almost up!"

A group of people gathered together, pressing against each other, their fingers touching the door key.

The door key was activated on time, and everyone felt their stomachs being pulled forward by a hook, and then flew up.

There was a small accident during landing and the young people were a little embarrassed.

When Harry was knocked down by Ron after landing, he saw out of the corner of his eye a person holding a broken umbrella with only ribs appearing on the grass not far away. The person's back looked a bit like Charles, but when he got up from the ground, he had disappeared.

He asked Hermione, who had not fallen, "Did you see that person over there just now? Does he look like Charles?"

Hermione shook her head. Her attention was attracted by the two Ministry of Magic staff who thought they were wearing Muggle clothes, so she didn't look over there.

"It's no surprise he came," said Hermione.

Harry soon thought nothing of it as Arthur inquired about his campsite and beckoned everyone to follow.
