Hogwarts: The Book of Laws

Chapter 16 Being a Guest

It's mid-August, and the weather in London is already a little hot, but even on the hottest day, it's only around 25 to 6 degrees Celsius.

Today, Lean is busy cleaning his home. Although he usually uses the "Descaling Curse" to clean his home, there will be several guests coming today.

After Ryan and Hermione broke up, he wrote to Hermione frequently. In the letter, Lean once said that he had a library at home.

As soon as Hermione, who loves books, heard this, she wanted to take a look.

However, after Mr. Granger heard about it, Hermione was not allowed to come. After all, this was Clear Street, the most famous slum in London.

However, after Lean finally wrote to tell Mr. Granger that his home was in the forest, not on the street, Mr. Granger agreed.

On the one hand, Hermione had been annoying him for a long time, and on the other hand, he also wanted to see what the home of this boy who wrote to Hermione every day looked like as soon as they separated.

Early that morning, Mr. Granger put the pistol in the drawer into the car, and then, at Hermione's urging, entered the National Park near Clear Street.

It was only after communicating with Mr. Granger that Lean learned that this forest was a national park.

"Okay, I think we should get down. We need to walk the rest of the way." Mr. Granger opened the car door and jumped out of the car first.

"Mr. Granger, good morning." Rean slowly walked out of the forest.

He was wearing light and breathable hiking clothes. After all, wearing a suit in the forest is the stupidest thing to do.

Not only Lean, the Granger family also wore mountaineering clothes, and they were family clothes.

"Quickly shrink"

A spell hits Mr. Granger's car, and the car gradually shrinks to the size of a toy car as the Granger family stares in shock.

"Can this...can it be changed back?" Mr. Granger was silent for a moment and then asked.

"Of course." Ryan picked up the car and put it in his traceless stretch bag.

"Let's go, my house is not too far from here." Rean waved and then led the way.

Hermione obviously didn't change her mind for a while and asked: "Speaking of which, what if such a big car becomes so small and unnecessary material?"

"That's not the case. The quality is still the same before and after the spell is cast." Lien replied from the front without looking back.

"Then this is even more wrong. Since the mass remains unchanged, it means that the number of atoms also remains unchanged, but the volume has obviously become smaller, which means that the gap between the atoms has become smaller. But... how is the magic? What about solving the molecular repulsion between particles?”

It was obvious that Hermione's knowledge far exceeded her current age.

Mr. and Mrs. Granger looked at each other and shrugged.

Having such a studious daughter is also stressful. They are just dentists, so how do they know this?

Whenever Hermione ran up to him with a book and asked him a question, he wanted to bang his head against the wall.

But he couldn't do this. He had to understand Hermione's problem well so that he could establish an image of an all-powerful father in Hermione's heart.

However, as Hermione grew older, the questions she asked became more and more difficult, making it difficult for Mr. Granger to respond.

In the end, Mr. Granger could only say helplessly: "I don't know, maybe it will be in the book."

From then on, Hermione began to read books like crazy.

"Magic power, magic power temporarily offsets the force between particles. It isolates particles one after another so that they no longer produce interaction forces. But because of the need to offset the force, magic power will continue to be consumed during this period. So. Say, no spell is permanent unless you continue to provide magic or..."

"Or what?" Rean's words obviously attracted Hermione's attention.

"It's nothing, you think I didn't say anything." Rean smiled.

Another way is to directly change the rules and forcefully reverse matter. But the power required by this method is so powerful that it is useless to say it now.

"Hmph!" Hermione snorted coldly. She was very dissatisfied with Ryan's answer.

First it whets people's appetite, and then it leaves it there without saying anything.

What a bad guy. Hermione couldn't help but curse in her heart.

No one spoke for the rest of the journey.

Hermione was holding her breath and didn't want to talk to Lean; the Grangers were attracted by the scene in the forest.

Half an hour later, amid the screams of the Granger family, Lean led them to his cabin.

"Welcome to my home, welcome you all." Lien bowed and said very gentlemanly.

Mr. Granger looked at the trees around him and saw no sign of a house.

"By the way, take these." As he said that, Lien took out several exquisite brooches from his pocket and handed them to the Grangers.

"This is the pass for my family's defense circle. Don't lose it. If you lose it, you must not step into the circle, otherwise it will be very miserable. You must remember it."

Li En warned at first, but felt that it was almost meaningless, so he added at the end.

The Grangers seemed to be frightened by Lien's words, and quickly pinned the brooch to their chests.

"follow me."

After speaking, Rean took the lead and entered a tree, which made Mr. Granger wipe his eyes fiercely. He even wondered if he was hallucinating.

Hermione followed Lean into the tree. Her daughter's disappearance made Mr. Granger no longer suspicious, and she took Mrs. Granger's hand and walked in together.

"Your place... is really nice." Mr. Granger couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the decoration that came into view.

More than just nice, everything here is expensive, but not precious.

This made Mr. Granger interested. After all, Lean was just a homeless kid living on Clear Street without a father or mother. Where did he get so much money?

After thinking about it, Mr. Granger asked directly.

Mrs. Granger pinched Mr. Granger's arm, as if to reproach him for his forthrightness.

"Is this the case? There was originally a batch of treasures here. I think some wizard must have left a way out for himself. However, it seems that this wizard gentleman was not very lucky. Anyway, it was cheaper for me in the end, and I sold it A little, in exchange for some money." Lean said with a smile, knowing that Mr. Granger would definitely ask this question.

"And the magic circle here was set up by the wizards before. However, they didn't seem to consider that no one would come for a long time. Maybe they didn't care about this stronghold, so the defensive magic circle was stopped before I arrived. But then I fixed them up because, you know, the yard isn’t safe without a fence.”

Mr. Granger nodded. The sanctity of private property had been firmly established since the Bill of Rights.

"By the way, Lean, you said in your letter that your home has a huge library. Is it true? Take me to see it quickly!" The little girl was obviously not interested in what Lean said just now, and quickly urged Lean. Take her to read a book.

"Of course, please follow me." Lean said with a smile, and then led the Granger family to his library.

As soon as Hermione entered the room, she was shocked by the sight before her. Tall bookshelves were filled with books. There was about one meter of space between each row of bookshelves, and the number of bookshelves was almost too numerous to count.

"This is really... incredible." Hermione stared at Lean with wide eyes, "I thought you were lying in the letter."

Lean bent down and said with a smile: "A gentleman would never lie to a beautiful lady."

Mr. Granger raised an eyebrow.

There's something wrong with this kid.

He coughed twice, as if to remind Lien of his presence.

"Okay, let me introduce this place to you." Rean showed his sense of ownership and began to introduce.

"Most of the books here are copied by me from the London Library. Only the thirty bookshelves at the back are books about magic. Some of them originally existed here, and the other part, as you know, came from Diagon Alley. Flourish and Blott Books.”

As he said that, Lien sighed. His heritage in just a few years was still not comparable to that of those wizard families.

Wait, the library at Hogwarts seems quite big, maybe...

Rean thought of this and secretly made a decision.

Now that he can move the London Library, the Hogwarts Library is naturally a problem.

After hearing this, Hermione exclaimed and ran towards the bookshelf.

After seeing this, Lean just smiled, then turned to Mr. Granger and said, "Perhaps you can visit my wine cellar?"

Originally, Lean did not have a wine cellar in his house, but after he discovered that he had collected a lot of good wine from the Charlie Gang, Lean decided to build a wine cellar for himself.

Over the past two years, Lien has also collected a lot of good wine.

"Creak!" The wine cellar door made a heart-wrenching sound because it had not been opened for a long time.

"Welcome to Lean Wine Cellar. The wine here may be new, but I think when I reach the age where I can drink, the wine here will be just right."

"Wow, there are some good bottles of wine here." Mr. Granger picked up a bottle of wine and observed it carefully, and then said.

"Perhaps you can bring a few bottles back later?" Lean smiled mischievously.

Eaters have short mouths, and takers have short hands. This is not just talk.

Mrs. Granger kept winking at Mr. Granger, but at this time, Mr. Granger only had eyes for the good wine in his hand.

"Okay, Lean, thank you very much. This bottle, and this bottle. Well, this bottle seems to be good too." Mr. Granger began to pick out the wine to take back later, regardless of the image.

Mrs. Granger's face grew colder every time Mr. Granger chose a bottle of wine.

Lean couldn't help but worry about Mr. Granger's unknown fate.

"Mom and Dad! Lean!" Hermione's voice came, interrupting Mr. Granger's desire to choose another bottle of wine.

"So you were here." Hermione appeared at the cellar door.

"Dad, what are you doing!"

Hermione, who noticed Mr. Granger choosing a drink, raised her eyebrows and asked.
