HP: I just wanted to drop out of school, but I saved the world

The rain washed against the car window, and Jian Yu finally saw the full view of the Hogwarts Express in the third year.

As she loaded the suitcase and the owl into the car, she heard a loud siren and the guards began to close the car doors one by one.

Harry stayed at the end, and seemed to be talking to Mr. Weasley, and his expression became unhappy again.

At the last second before the train started, Mrs. Weasley handed Scabbers, a mouse that looked hairless and missing a toe, to Ron.

Alfila flapped her wings excitedly twice, stared at it, and made an attacking gesture - but was held down by Jian Yu.

She declined Harry, Ron and Hermione's request to share the compartment because she urgently needed to find an empty compartment to suppress the restless Niffler in the suitcase, who was unable to resist breaking the seal.

The three of them looked very lost.

Looking through the compartments one by one, she found that the train was already overcrowded.

What's worse is that the popularity she gained during the summer and in the past two years has led many students to reach out and try to get her in.

"Here! Jade!"

Fortunately, Daphne, her good roommate, was also looking for her. The little witch seemed to have some kind of fanatical love and admiration for her. Last semester, Jian Yu found that everything she did would be watched by her shining eyes.

She entered Daphne's compartment, only to find another girl with long blond hair and blue eyes inside, presumably her sister Astoria, whom Daphne had mentioned in the letter.

Seeing Jian Yu, Astoria smiled sweetly, revealing two dimples.

They all stared curiously at Jian Yu's moving suitcase.

"A new pet, very naughty."

Jian Yu quickly opened the suitcase and suppressed Sniff, and the suitcase returned to calm.

"Theodore has also gone to look for you, but he hasn't come back yet." Daphne turned to talk about the news she read in the Daily Prophet during the summer vacation, "What should we do about your curse? Can it be solved?"

Jian Yu smiled and said there was no need to worry, and Daphne breathed a sigh of relief.

After one academic year and one summer vacation, plus some emergency friendship training from old Greengrass, Daphne had realized that her roommate had no interest in gossip about who fell in love with whom, but instead preferred some secrets and knowledge.

"Have you heard that we have a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher this year?" Daphne said mysteriously, "I doubt Professor Snape will be happy about this, because his application to teach this course was rejected by Headmaster Dumbledore again."

Astoria also joined their conversation. Although she was a freshman, she was very familiar with some gossip.

"Actually, more than that, Dad said we have to be careful this year," she said softly, "He said some scary magical creatures might enter Hogwarts."

At this point, the door of the compartment was pushed open, and Theodore, Draco and Blaise were standing at the door.

Theodore looked indifferent, and Jian Yu realized that he was impatient.

Because this compartment was suddenly packed with people.

Now half of the Slytherin pure-blood family circle is complete.

She stood up and tried to find another empty compartment, but suddenly remembered Aberforth's advice:

"...invitations...he refused them all...no matter how many times you go...he can't stand it...make Hogwarts..."

So she sat down again.

"I asked Goyle and Crabbe to stand guard outside—" Draco squeezed into the cubicle sideways, complaining loudly, "Damn it, why isn't this the prefect's cubicle? It's so crowded!"

More than two years have passed, and he is still as talkative as ever. As soon as he arrived, he took a look at the fire crossbow that Jian Yu had placed aside:

"How did you get this?" he asked incredulously, his grey eyes filled with amazement. "My father said you had a new guardian - Dumbledore was so generous? Then why did he watch you get cursed?"

Thinking of that report and the wave of letters "persuading learning" it triggered, Jian Yu frowned:

"These are all false reports - but how did your father know?"

Talking about this, Draco puffed out his chest proudly, and his platinum hair looked even more shiny:

"My dad has connections at the Ministry! He could get a job there anytime—"

What followed was a long string of boasting about the Malfoy family and his father. Theodore and Blaise seemed to have gotten so used to it that they were numb. One of them flipped through the Potions textbook, while the other leaned back and closed his eyes to rest.

Only Daphne and Astoria continued to listen, whether out of courtesy or something else. But Jian Yu could feel that their perfect smiles were gradually collapsing, and Daphne's 15° raised mouth corners had begun to twitch.

Jian Yu couldn't bear the torture on her ears. After Draco unilaterally sent 99+ chat messages, she finally spoke:

"Didn't Flint talk to you about Quidditch during the summer?"

After these words came out, Draco's attention was finally diverted:

"Of course, we have to practice new tactics. He is graduating soon, and this year is the last chance for the Quidditch trophy—"

As soon as he mentioned Quidditch, he thought of Harry and immediately snorted:

"This year I'm going to beat that damn Potter and knock him off his broom!"

Although "Potter" is not a good topic, it is better to complain about Gryffindor and talk about Quidditch together than to keep saying "my dad". Everyone in the compartment breathed a sigh of relief and gave Jian Yu a look of gratitude. Blaise gave her a thumbs up.

"I heard that Hufflepuff has also changed its captain and seeker, Cedric Diggory." Blaise spoke up, changing the endless topic of "Potter". "Draco, you have a new opponent."

Draco immediately frowned and shouted "Hufflepuff" and "all idiots"... but anyone could hear that he was indeed under a lot of pressure.

As the normal conversation continued, the train was moving slower and slower, and the rain outside the window was getting heavier.

As night fell, the windows were covered with fog and it was impossible to see where the train was heading.

"What's going on? Are we there yet?"

Draco stopped talking and started to complain about the disrepair of the train - but he suddenly stopped talking.

Because all the lights went out at once, the train came to a sudden stop and it was pitch dark.

There were panicked voices outside the compartment, the sound of luggage being moved and dropped, and the students began to riot... It seemed that something was getting on the bus...

Not right.

Jian Yu immediately drew out his wand.

The little snakes all looked at her and took out their wands as she did.

"no no!"

Goyle and Crabbe, who were standing guard at the door, suddenly screamed, opened the compartment door and rushed in. They hugged each other tightly, fell on the table in the compartment, causing it to creak, and then rolled heavily onto Draco.

"What are you doing—" Draco's voice caught in his throat.

"What is that?" He looked at the door in horror and asked in a trembling voice.
