But Hermione never told her about it.

She turned her head and looked at the huge fir tree in front of her. Her mood sank slightly, and she quickly transported it into the auditorium, put it down and left.

"Everyone," she called loudly to them who were still chatting behind, "I still haven't packed my luggage, so I'm going back first."

Harry, who was still talking to Hagrid, was taken aback for a moment, and turned his head in a daze: "What's wrong with her?"

Obviously it was fine just now.

"Didn't she say that she wants to go back and pack her things?" The classic straight man Ron shrugged.

Hermione stared at her disappearing figure in the snow, her face suddenly changed: "I seem to have forgotten to tell her about Nicole Flamel!"

"Huh? Is Kate such a stingy person?" Ron closed his mouth consciously as soon as the words came out.

He remembered Kate hitting him with the broom before flying class.

In a way she was petty, very petty.

Chapter 65 On Coaxing Techniques

After packing her luggage, Kate took the train home. She only needed to wait three hours before she could return to her warm room.

Just as she was closing her eyes and meditating, a fluffy little brown head poked in: "Kate, is there anyone sitting here?"

"If nothing else happens, I should be human." Kate slightly opened her eyelids and replied quietly.

Hermione grinned, and sat next to her with her suitcase very naturally: "Kate, are you angry?"

"No," she tilted her head, just met Hermione's expectant gaze, and said softly for a moment, "I was just thinking about what Christmas present I would give you."

Originally, I wanted to take a lonely copy from the library at home and send it over.

But after thinking about it, those were collected by the ancestors through untold hardships, and she had no reason to take the things of the ancestors as favors.

"As long as it's from you, I like everything!" Hermione said quickly.

Kate heard this and raised her eyebrows: "Really?"

She casually picked up a chocolate frog that she just bought and stuffed it, she was quite playful: "Then take this as a gift."

"This..." Hermione looked at the small box in front of her with some hesitation, her brain started working rapidly, and she opened it immediately.

The frog-shaped chocolate in the box jumped up suddenly, and she quickly grabbed it again.

"Half of us!" Hermione grabbed it and took a big bite, then handed over the remaining part.

Kate leaned back subconsciously, "This is a gift for you."

"Isn't mine yours?" Hermione asked logically, "Or, do you dislike me and take a bite first?"

Ah this...

Seeing the half-bitten chocolate in front of her eyes, Kate smiled helplessly, and obediently leaned over to eat it.

Seeing this, Hermione showed a somewhat satisfied smile, and looked down at the card that came with the box in her hand, "It's Dumbledore!"

"Albus Dumbledore, the current Headmaster of Hogwarts, is widely regarded as the greatest wizard of our time.

Dumbledore's well-known contributions include:

Defeated the Dark Wizard Grindelwald in [-],

Discover twelve uses of dragon blood,

Effective in alchemy with his partner Nicolas May..."

In the middle of her reading, her eyes suddenly opened wide: "Nicole Flamel! I found him! It turned out to be him!"

"Huh?" Kate pretended not to know anything and leaned over, "Nicole Flamel, I still have a few alchemy tools made by him in my home."

Hermione looked up in surprise: "Really? Then why didn't you tell me?"

In the end who is the first to beat back ah.

Kate crossed her chest angrily: "I remember someone didn't tell me that you were looking for this name before chatting with Hagrid and the others yesterday."

Hermione blushed, lowered her head and explained softly, "I wanted to wait for you to be discharged from the hospital to tell you, but you always go to the school hospital later on, so..."

"So you forgot to tell me?" Kate asked with a half-smile, "It's been more than a month since I was discharged from the hospital?"

"I'm sorry..." Hermione pursed her lips, and begged her pitifully for mercy, "Next time, I will tell you as soon as possible!"

"Then—it depends on your performance." Kate raised her eyebrows slightly, and took out an expansion book related to Transfiguration and read it.

It's just that from the corner of the eye, I caught a glimpse of a certain little lion still staring at me eagerly, so I had no choice but to tilt the book towards her: "Do you understand?"

"Hmm... two or three percent." Hermione frowned and looked at it for a while, then replied tangled.

Kate smiled silently, and took out a second-grade textbook for her: "Then read the book carefully."

It is probably only Kate who can make the party of the lion and the little snake more exciting than the eagle yard.

The time on the train passed by in the blink of an eye, and soon, with the sound of a whistle, it arrived on the platform.

After Kate put away the book and got off the bus, she saw the old butler waiting for her on the edge of the platform, with a bright smile on her face.

"Grandpa!" She ran over quickly and threw herself into the arms of the old housekeeper, just like an ordinary child acting like a spoiled child to her grandpa.

The old butler smiled until his face was wrinkled, and he rubbed her head lovingly: "Lunch is ready at home, is there anything else you want to eat?"

Kate shook her head, then turned to look at Hermione who was still waiting for the Grangers, reached out and tugged at the old butler's sleeve: "Let's send Hermione out first."

Muggles cannot enter Platform Nine and Three Quarters.

The old butler obeyed her every word, walked over and said a few words to Hermione, and then led her over.

"Kate, do you want to go back to your own home?" Hermione asked hesitantly, "I want to send you a gift, but I don't know the address..."

The address of Safik Manor is kept secret from the outside world, which has been established since the war era.

Descendants of the family can bring friends to enter, but they must not disclose the address to outsiders.

"How about it," she thought for a while, and chose a compromise, "I'll bring you to my house on Christmas night, and you give me the gift in person!"

Anyway, she left her address in the Muggle world for other friends, and she had to go back there to pick it up on Christmas night.

"Really! Can I go to your house?" Hermione grabbed her hand excitedly, "Then it's done, I'll discuss it with my parents when I get home!"

Kate bent her eyes, pinched her little face lightly, and led her through the exit wall together.

The Grangers have been waiting outside for a long time.

"Dad! Mom!" Hermione happily ran over to her parents after not seeing her for a long time, only to find that Kate and the old housekeeper had disappeared after turning around.

She pursed her lips in frustration, and when she thought of the promise Kate had made to her before, she felt happy again.

"Mom, my Christmas night..."

Seeing Hermione happily leave with her parents, Kate, standing behind the crowd, took the old butler's hand, "Grandpa, let's go home too."

Generally speaking, if there is no special channel, the means to return to Safik Manor is usually to use the door key.

Almost in an instant, she returned to the boulevard when she first came here, and Kate saw that the house elves headed by elves had been waiting here for a long time.

Handing all the luggage in her hand to the elf, she walked with the old housekeeper and said, "After lunch today, I want to go to the library to pick up two books."

"Is it going to be given to Miss Granger?" The old butler had already observed it.

Kate nodded: "Well, but I want to make a copy myself."

The collection of books of the ancestors cannot be moved, but you can always make a copy and give it away!

"Understood," the old butler nodded, "I will prepare my pen and ink."

Chapter 66 Family Mission 2

All afternoon after lunch, Kate spent the entire afternoon copying lonely copies in the library, and didn't come out until dinner.

"It's basically finished transcribing, but I want to add some notes, so I will be busy for a while tonight."

Listening to her tired and excited voice, the old housekeeper reminded softly: "Although Christmas is very important, I think your birthday is more important."

Kate was startled, and then remembered that she was born at the end of December, the day after Christmas when there was heavy snowfall.

She has been so busy preparing presents that she even forgot about it.

"Yeah, I'll be 13 soon," the old butler smiled and gestured, "I remember when you were born, you were only this little."

In this case, she would hear the old housekeeper mention it once a year, probably because people always like to recall the past when they are old.

Quietly listening to the old butler talking about the things he told about himself every year when he was born.

She suddenly remembered something, and asked aloud, "Grandpa, I heard that my mother was frightened when she was pregnant?"

The old housekeeper paused, and asked her hesitantly, "Where did you know that?"

"It was Madam Pomfrey from the school hospital who said that I was born with chills, which may have been caused by my mother being frightened during pregnancy."

Kate answered without hesitation.

The truth is, her body is indeed weak in some respects.

After all, I haven't exercised much after staying at home for so long, and my body is slimmer than my peers, so I'm not very good at sports.

Rarely, she saw that the old housekeeper was silent for a long time before she sighed and said, "Little master, I think you should wait until you grow up to ask these questions."

Sure enough, there is something inside.

Kate nodded knowingly. She didn't want to embarrass the old housekeeper who had been with her for so many years.

If he doesn't say it, he must have his own reasons.

"Then let's make an appointment! One year...no, two years later, I will be 15 years old, can you tell me this secret?" She asked tentatively.

The old housekeeper was silent for a while: "Okay, then when Miss is 15 years old, I will tell you all these details."

Eh, that's right.

She understands the old housekeeper's desire to protect her, so everything is done with consideration, which is good for everyone.

"By the way," the old housekeeper's face paled slightly, and his tone deliberately became brisk, "You are almost 13 years old, and you can also learn to use some simple alchemy props."

Eh?

The fork in her hand accidentally dropped on the table, and Kate looked at him in surprise: "Alchemy...can I learn alchemy?"

The old housekeeper shook his head: "As far as I know, the third daughter of the seventh Patriarch of Safik is an alchemist."

"But it's a pity that she only has some props made during her lifetime, and there are no related manuscripts."

Oh, I can't learn...

Kate felt a little disappointed in her heart, but she quickly returned to normal.

She can't even finish learning magic now, how can she have time to learn alchemy?

Not to mention the pinnacle of contemporary alchemy, that is, Nicole Flamel, who used the Philosopher's Stone to achieve immortality.

Although the old man lived a long life, to some extent, his life was not as happy as that of ordinary people.

If she learns to live forever, but can only live carefully like a glass man, that would be a bit boring.

"Then what alchemy props can I use?" She asked excitedly.

Although she can't learn it, her family has so many mysterious props in her collection, she can always use a few of them!

The old housekeeper stood up, "I'll go get it for the little master, and please stay safe and calm."

Kate watched him use Apparatus to disappear, so she held her temper and ate a few more mouthfuls of dinner, then asked the elf to take him away.

Not long after, the old butler came back with a wooden box and opened it with his magic wand.

I saw a silver bracelet inside, the shape of the chain was like two vines intertwined with each other, and a gem as bright as blood was inlaid in the middle.

Kate didn't dare to move it casually, her little head circled around the box, "Is this... a bracelet made by our ancestors?"

Sure enough, the aesthetics of the girls in the Safik family is good from their ancestors. Even after hundreds of years of precipitation, they are still exciting.

"According to the records, the younger sister of the seventh patriarch is in poor health just like the young master, so the alchemist of the family created such a bracelet."
