""Good afternoon, everyone. What are you doing here?" Levin walked up and waved at them.

Seeing another person coming, Hagrid's reaction was not happiness, but annoyance.

Hermione opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but was pulled back by Ron.

"We promised Hagrid, Hermione!" Ron said righteously,"We shouldn't tell more people about this."

"But that's Levin Green," Hermione looked at him blankly,"Isn't he our friend?"

Seeing the attitudes of the two friends, Harry was very embarrassed.

What Hermione wanted to say was the secret between him, Ron, Hermione and Hagrid.

Without the consent of others, Harry didn't know whether he should tell Levin about it.

Seeing their mysterious look, Levin immediately guessed what was going on - it was just about Nicolas Flamel and his"little invention".

But their attitude made Levin a little annoyed:"Well, I was willing to use my knowledge to help you, since you don't want to say it, I can only wish you all a happy holiday."

Then he turned around and walked directly to the Ravenclaw Tower.

"How could you treat him like this?"

Hermione got angry when she saw her friend leave.

"Levin is recognized as the best student in the first grade and a frequent visitor to the library. It is said that he has read most of the books there, and maybe one of them is about Nicolas Flamel!"

"Besides, he has helped you many times since the beginning of the school year. Why did you have to hide it from him?"

Ron was speechless after being scolded by Hermione.

Harry also felt very annoyed and frustrated. He should have told Levin the truth a long time ago, but he didn't say it because of Ron's attitude.

Ron always felt that the matter about the corridor and Nicolas Flamel should be their adventure.

If he told Levin, he could probably solve the problem alone, and then they would have nothing to do.

At this point, Hermione bit her lip:"No, I have to go find him!"

After saying that, without waiting for Harry and Ron to react, she chased in the direction where Levin left.

But in the end, she was still blocked by the eagle ring outside the common room door.

That's right, Hermione didn't answer the eagle ring puzzle. Sure enough

, the rumors about the eagle ring were not false.

For a thousand years, no one other than Ravenclaw entered the Ravenclaw common room.

I think this is why Hermione has the qualifications of both Gryffindor and Ravenclaw, but the Sorting Hat put her in Gryffindor.

Hermione is indeed a smart girl who meets the requirements of Ravenclaw, but her intelligence is mostly in memory, logical thinking and rationality, which is far from the real Ravenclaw lacks one trait, that is, the creativity that can let go of oneself.

Throughout the entire Harry Potter plot, the one who best fits the Ravenclaw traits is the so-called"crazy girl" Luna Lovegood.

Although this girl is always crazy in the eyes of outsiders, and her mind is full of fantasies that only she can see, her madness tends to be more wise than foolish.

If Hermione's intelligence allows her to cope with all possible situations, then Luna's wisdom can allow her to have a flash of inspiration when facing unexpected situations.

As the saying goes:"Genius is 99% hard work plus 1% inspiration."

But few people know the follow-up of that sentence:"That 1% of inspiration is the most important."

Hermione was a little frustrated that she couldn't enter the Ravenclaw common room.

But she had another idea:"Maybe I can go to the library tomorrow and wait, he will always stay there."

However, the next day, Levin did not go to the library or even the Great Hall.

He packed his luggage, went to the Room of Requirement, and then boarded the train back to London, leaving Hermione empty-handed.

After getting off the train at the station, Levin skillfully transferred to the door of the Leaky Cauldron.

At this time, he hoped that he could learn to Apparate, otherwise, as a wizard, he would have to squeeze into the bus with Muggles, which was quite abstract.

He opened the door of the bar, and it was still dim inside as usual:

"Good morning, old Tom, I'm back again.

Levin walked straight to the counter and greeted Tom Abbott who was wiping the cups.

"Levin, it's you who's back!"Old Tom was surprised to see him.

He knew that today was a holiday at Hogwarts, but he didn't expect him to come here.

"What? Are you addicted to living in a cubicle?" Tom said jokingly.

Levin shook his head, showed an arrogant smile, and paid nine coins:"No, open a room for me this time. I have money now and I want to live here permanently!"

"I haven't seen you for a few months. You're really new to me." Tom looked Levin up and down and commented.

In the past few months of correspondence with Hannah, he had learned about the boy's performance at Hogwarts. He had become a recognized genius when he first entered the school.

Given his intelligence, it was not surprising that he had changed so much in just a few months.

"Well, it's Old Tom's turn to serve you this time." Tom took out a key from the drawer and put it in Levin's hand, and returned two of the nine Galleons,"A week's house, this is a discount for our old friendship."

Levin took the key, went up to the second floor, and found Room 9 according to the number on it.

After opening the door, there was a comfortable-looking bed, some shiny oak furniture, and a crackling fire in the fireplace.

Levin put away his luggage, placed the cage containing Hummer on top of the wardrobe, and went downstairs carrying a box.

When he arrived at the backyard of the Leaky Cauldron, he took out his wand, knocked on the bricks on the wall, and Diagon Alley appeared.

Because it was Christmas, Diagon Alley was still very lively, with Christmas decorations everywhere, all kinds of bells jingling, and merchants launched���The wizards wandering around were dazzled by the Christmas specialties.

This made Levin quite confused. Obviously, these wizards did not believe in any religion. Others talked about Jesus and God all the time, but they talked about Merlin's bitter tea.

Why would such a group of people celebrate Christmas?

Of course, Levin did not expect to get the answer in Diagon Alley.

He picked up a box and walked straight to the junk shop.

It was a store full of tattered wands, wobbly copper scales and old cloaks stained with medicine. It not only sold second-hand magic items, but also old books.

Levin bought a lot of equipment here at that time, but today, this is where he made his fortune.

""Straki, come out and meet the customers!" Levin shouted when he arrived at the door of the shop.

""Here, here!"

Soon, a skinny old man came out of the junk shop with a cigarette.

Strachey, full name Abraham Strachey, was a Jew.

He looked very old, but his movements were quite agile - it was said that he himself said that he was a vampire hunter when he was young.

With the increasingly strict implementation of the Statute of Secrecy, all vampires nowadays are honestly hiding under the supervision of wizards, and this profession has disappeared with time.

During the two months of working in Diagon Alley, due to the lack of funds, Levin got to know the other party very well.

The old man usually liked to stay in the store alone to smoke, and he was not afraid that the things outside would be taken away by others.

Now when he saw Levin, he grinned ugly:

"Hey, it's you again, Green boy. Are you here to buy second-hand goods again?"

"No, it's the opposite."Levin pushed the box in his hand,"This time I'm here to sell things."
