Chapter 144 Ron's Secret

Chapter 587 Ron’s Secret

The train station you stop at when you arrive at Hogwarts actually has a name.

Its name is Hogsmeade Station.

There are two roads there.

One of them leads to Hogsmeade, the only pure wizarding village in the UK.

The other one is the rough and muddy road that second-year students and above take to Hogwarts via carriages pulled by Thestrals.

At the end of the road, there were stone pillars standing on both sides of the road, with winged wild boars at the end.

Behind it is the magnificent cast iron door.

This door is tightly closed on weekdays and is only opened at the beginning of school, at the end of the school year, and on Hogsmeade Day.

On that day, only students in third grade and above with a consent form signed by their parents can leave the castle.

And head straight to the iron door.

The other students had to stay in Hogwarts Castle temporarily.

Until the iron gate closes again.

But there is no need to worry that these students in the castle will feel imprisoned.

Because the iron door will only open at a fixed time of the day.

At other times, these students who cannot go to Hogsmeade are free to walk outside the castle.

However, this also led to the fact that only during that time in the morning, when Filch was counting out the castle students in the front hall, the iron door leaving Hogwarts would be unguarded.

When the remaining iron doors are open, there are usually faculty members there guarding them.

Sometimes it's Hagrid, sometimes it's other professors.

But not Filch. Because he doesn't know magic.

In the morning, when he was counting the certificates of students in front of the oak gate, he could barely show off his authority.

But now, Filch, who has become a wizard, is qualified to guard the iron gate.

This may be why Filch seems happier than usual now.

Harry thought so as he and Ron were queuing up to leave the castle.

Soon they passed the inspection, stepped down the stone steps, and arrived in front of the iron gate.

Passing through the stone pillars, they got on the carriage pulled by the Yeqi, and with the familiar faint smell of musty and straw, they set off.

In the carriage, Ron eagerly took out the Marauder's Map and looked at the Black Lake again.

"Huh? Krum is still not moving."

"Can't you write a letter? You're torturing yourself and Krum." Harry complained habitually.

I started thinking about Ginny again.

So he quickly grabbed the map.

After some searching, Ginny's name was finally found in the passage behind the one-eyed witch statue on the fourth floor.

She was walking slowly towards Honeydukes at the finish line.

Ten minutes later, the two finally saw the familiar platform again.

But this time, the carriage did not stop, but continued walking towards another stone road.

“The road is much smoother.

Well, I didn't notice it just now - my butt. "Ron stood up in the carriage and reached behind with his hands.

“However, there are so few people.

I just noticed it.

There are far fewer people going to Hogsmeade than in previous years. "Harry said looking at the sparse carriages outside the window.

Ron sat down again, "I know that.

Like Ernie from Hufflepuff, they didn't go.

He said that he should practice the three spells handed out yesterday.

Read it several times.

Find the perfect fit.

and the less appropriate ones.

Be more prepared. And hasn’t Hogsmeade Day been changed to every Sunday this school year?

Not fresh anymore.

They can definitely find time to go there later. "

"Okay," Harry looked down at the Marauder's Map on his lap again, "How come? Ginny's name is missing?"

"Let's take a look," Ron quickly came over, "It's Honeydukes.

Um? What's going on, there's not a single ink spot at Honeydukes.

Also, how come Hogsmeade only shows Honeydukes. "

After hearing Ron's words, Harry breathed a sigh of relief, "I almost forgot, this is the map of Hogwarts.

Ginny must have arrived at Hogsmeade.

As for why only Honeydukes is shown, it’s probably because there is a secret passage from this shop to Hogwarts. "

"What about the Screaming Shack?"

"That's because this location is related to Lupin's identity as a werewolf.

My father and others made this map without adding it, probably to protect Lupine's identity from being leaked. "Faced with Ron's question, Harry thought for a moment before answering.

"Well, then I can go to Devis Bans (a store that sells and repairs some magic equipment) with peace of mind." Ron Feifei rubbed his hands.

It seems that I am looking forward to that store very much.

"Are you going to buy it? Or repair something?" Harry was a little curious about this.

He had never heard Ron mention the name of this store before.

"It's a secret." Ron smiled mysteriously.

.

However, Harry still knew Ron's secret.

After entering Hogsmeade, Harry and Ron were separated.

Harry also met Ginny at Mrs. Puddieff's Teahouse.

The two of them also spent a long time in the teahouse and had lunch by the way.

Although the teahouse was small and most of the food they ate were desserts, the two of them were still very happy.

Then came the outdoors.

At the Literary Quill Shop, Harry bought Ginny a quill that sang a soothing song when writing. Ginny used her money from working in "The Quibbler" to buy Harry a bottle of soothing ink, which releases an anxiety-relieving aroma when writing.

At the Fairy Wizarding Clothing Store, Harry and Ginny tried on clothes but bought nothing.

At the Three Broomsticks, they bought a large bag of butterbeer from the bar owner, Mrs. Rosmerta, and drank it while walking with straws in them.

The two even went to the legendary Pig's Head Bar.

That's where they found Ron and a man.

It is indeed easy to find them in a crowd that wraps itself up tightly.

It was also at this time that Harry learned the secret of why Ron was going to Devis-Bans.

"I said, brother, you can go find out how easy it is to sell smoke bottles in Hogwarts. Seventy-three points is not too harsh."

"But, I have heard of the 50-50 share you agreed with other dealers."

"Then you may be ignorant. The other dealers you are referring to are my two twin brothers.

Is your last name also Weasley? "

"I don't mind. You can call me Dewes Weasley if you want. You can also change the name of the store."

"you--!"

.

"You should know that I just talked to Zuko, DeVos."

"Okay, seven to three is seven to three." After a long conversation, the middle-aged man with a goatee opposite Ron finally agreed to the share ratio.

Harry and Ginny looked at each other in confusion.

"Good guy, Ron is here to discuss business." Harry was surprised and wondered if there was something wrong with his ears.

"That's not the problem.

The problem is, Ron actually abandoned Fred and George and chose to cooperate with others. ” Ginny was stunned.

This is simply not something Ron can do with his intelligence.

Just now, he seemed to have changed.
