The Shopkeeper of All Worlds in the British Wizarding World

Chapter 352 Going Home (For Subscription, For Favorites, For Tickets)
The end of the year-end banquet means the end of this school year, and it also means that everyone will be separated for a summer vacation.

Karkaroff still chose to escape. As an expert who can survive Voldemort's pursuit for a year, Karkaroff has a very keen sense of smell when his own safety is at stake.The various changes had already made him restless, but Dumbledore's speech yesterday became the last straw.After making up his mind, he ran away overnight.

However, his escape did not affect other people, at least except for a few careful people who observed that he disappeared, most people didn't even notice it.Lane waited in the crowded foyer with his fellow Hogwarts students for the carriage to take them to Hogsmeade station.It was another beautiful summer day, and from the foyer one could see the lush lawns of the grounds and the vibrant forest beyond.

Across the field, Ryan could see Hagrid helping Madame Maxime harness the two horses.Beauxbaton's carriage was about to leave, and Hagrid said that after Madam Maxim escorted her students back to school, she would set off with him to complete the task left by Dumbledore.

"I don't know how the students of Durmstrang will go back." Ron's voice came from the side. "You said, without Karkaroff, can they still drive that ship?"

"Karkaroff isn't at the helm," said a hoarse voice. "He's staying in the cabin, and we'll do the work." Krum came from behind at this moment.

"Nice to meet you," he said to Ryan. "Your strength has won my friendship. I hope we can keep in touch in the future." After speaking, he and Ryan left each other's contact information.

"Have you found the new principal?" Ryan asked casually after leaving his contact information.

Krum shrugged.He held out his hand and shook hands with Harry, Hermione and Ron respectively.Judging from Ron's expression, he seemed to be suffering from some kind of painful inner conflict.Krum was about to walk away when Ron said suddenly, "Can you sign me?"

Krum, looking both surprised and relieved, signed a piece of parchment for Ron.

On their way back to King's Cross, the weather was nothing like it had been when they had come to Hogwarts last September.The sky was cloudless.Ryan and Hermione avoided the others and sat in the last box at the end of the train.

"You'd better spare enough time this holiday, because that person is back, and the war may break out at any time. In this case, we must increase our combat experience through actual combat, and at the same time improve our own strength as much as possible. "As Ryan said, he unpacked Bibi's multi-flavored beans and ate one. "Damn it, it's Devil Pepper."

Hermione was a little confused, "Haven't we been doing these things before? Why do you want to emphasize the matter of combat training again now?"

"No, it's not the same." After taking a few sips of iced pumpkin juice to suppress the spicy taste in his mouth, Ryan explained seriously. "It was just training before, but this time I'm talking about actual combat."

"Actual combat, how can - wait, is it -, but didn't you say that every time you travel, you are close to death? If you take me there again, it won't do you any harm, right?" Hermione thought of her reaction After coming over, he asked, "You told me that when you met Belle."

"People will grow." Ryan said, these pits that were dug in the past have to be filled now. "At least now, taking people to some safer worlds can guarantee safety."

"That's good." Hermione nodded. "As long as it doesn't affect your safety because of this, I don't have any objections, as long as I can actually improve my own strength and help you in the war."

"Thank you so much for trusting me," Ryan said after taking another sip of pumpkin. "But what I want to tell you is that the real battlefield is much crueler than you imagined. I hope you can make enough mental preparations."

"I will, I'm ready to face the brutal truth." Hermione said with a serious face, and said suddenly as if she had thought of something after eating a cauldron cake. "I think next year may be very chaotic. The conflict between the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore is now on the surface. In this case, Harry, the chosen one of Professor Dumbledore, should have a hard time."

"Indeed, if Dumbledore chooses to endure, it will definitely be difficult for Harry. But Dumbledore's choice to endure is not out of weakness. He hopes to retain more vitality to deal with that person and the Death Eaters instead of spending it on Meaningless internal friction. It's a pity that Fudge's eyes can only see the benefit under his feet, and he never wants to move his brain to look a little farther away." Ryan made a helpless expression.

Hermione nodded, and she probably understood why Ryan was so eager to improve her strength.In this case, they can only choose to protect themselves. Although the probability of being directly killed by Voldemort when Professor Dumbledore is still alive is very small, no one dares to bet on this.Because once you fail, you can sacrifice energy, which means a lot of lives.

"Hey, why didn't you see Rita Skeeter after being so noisy recently?" Ryan asked curiously after flipping through the "Daily Prophet".

"Because when I habitually used your detection spell that day, I found someone beside me, but I couldn't find her with the naked eye. In the end, I found that the magical reaction came from a beetle and I caught that beetle. After careful observation, I confirmed that it was Rita Skeeter. When I found this, I threatened her not to write anything for a year and then released it. She is an anima that can turn into a beetle Gus, it's no wonder she knows so many other people's private affairs." Hermione raised her eyebrows and said.

"You've handled it well, at least that way you'll have one less important attacker in the Ministry of Magic propaganda."

Suddenly the door of the compartment was opened, and the twins walked in side by side.

"Ha, Ryan. I'm very happy that you two are hiding here and flirting with each other. We didn't find you until we found you from the front of the car to the back of the car."

"What's the matter?" Ryan asked, looking at the twins.

"About opening the shop," Fred said, "at the risk of getting spanked by mother on both sides of the ass."

"Maybe it's the same height on both sides, and it's so swollen that you can't even put on your pants." George grimaced behind him.

"In short, no matter what, we will open the store within a week after the holiday begins." Fred clenched his left fist and waved his determination.

"So." George stood shoulder to shoulder with his brother and said, "Have you thought about the name of the store? After all, you are the major shareholder."

"Pfft." Hermione covered her mouth and laughed, she still remembered how Ryan named those little dragons.

"Okay, stop laughing." Ryan looked helpless, then looked at the twins. "My name-naming skills are a bit bad, so you guys can do it. The only requirement is not to put my name on the store name."

"Why is it obviously—" George wanted to say something, but Fredella gave him a slap.

"I know, as Professor Dumbledore hinted, the mysterious man is back. It is understandable that Ryan does not allow his name to be written for safety reasons." Fred explained to George.

"It seems that Dumbledore's current approach is indeed better than that in the original novel. Those who can really listen to the advice can learn the truth from it, and those who are unwilling to accept the news can also find excuses for themselves to escape, so they won't be so opposed. Dumbledore. In this way, the internal friction should be less." Ryan thought after listening to Fred's words.

Soon, the train returned to London.Ryan said goodbye to the twins and pulled the suitcase out of King's Cross Station with Hermione.Today their parents are busy, so they can only take the subway home.
