Chapter 924: The Biggest Director of Hogwarts

Hermione's hunch was right.

After she and Vincent arrived at Hogsmeade station, she carried the two cute pets to the waiting booth, and soon the Hogwarts Express arrived.

Before the train came to a complete stop, the twins jumped out of the control room at the front of the train.

Looking at the two people running towards them, Vincent and Hermione finally understood where that ominous feeling came from.

"I miss you so much, my good buddy~"

Vincent cleverly turned sideways and avoided two big hugs.

Fred stretched out his hands and looked at Hermione, but after being glared at, he dropped his hands with a pout.

"Please, you are too inhumane."

Vincent dodged George's hug again, "Didn't we just meet in Diagon Alley yesterday?"

George grinned, "Yesterday was yesterday, and today is today."

He also lowered his hands and looked around curiously with Fred.

"Dude, where did you hide the car?"

Vincent raised his left hand and shook the index finger with Flamel's ring on it.

The twins' eyes sparkled, and they rubbed their hands together with a smile, "Man, we have wanted to drive a Muggle car for a long time."

"Haven't you driven Uncle Arthur's car before?"

"That's different. Dad's old car can also fly. When it runs, I worry that the wheels will fall off."

Vincent thought about it and decided that it might be possible to lend it to them.

"Yes, yes, but..."

The twins looked at him expectantly, "But what?"

"But..." Vincent motioned for the two to look behind them, "But you have a lot of competitors."

Cedric came over, followed by James and Alfred.

Muggle vehicles have absolutely no appeal to wizards, but Vincent is designing the speed myth of the future.

No boy would refuse a Bugatti, just like no girl would refuse a sparkling little skirt.

"Lao Wen~"

"Stop." Vincent took the car key from Flamel's ring. "Whoever finds it will have the right to use the car for a day."

After casting several amplification spells, he threw the car keys heavily towards the castle.

Hogsmeade was quite far away from the castle, but the car keys passed through the rain one after another and disappeared at an incredible speed.

Several people looked at each other and rushed towards the castle.

The twins and Cedric took the shortcut, while James and Alfred took the shortest straight line.

The freshman who had just got off the train saw several blurry figures flashing past him.

They were just wondering when a loud voice rang out.

"First-year students, this way!"

The source of the sound was a giant figure holding a huge umbrella in his hand.

As per tradition, freshmen have to take a small boat across to reach the castle.

As usual, Hagrid was responsible for leading them, but his look this year was not very elegant. His oversized moleskin jacket had many holes in it and his hair was messy.

Vincent watched the freshmen go away and turned the club emblem into an umbrella, "Let's go."

Hermione didn't dare to put her arm around his, but she stayed close to him.

Outside the station, a hundred horseless carriages were quietly waiting for the students.

We arrived a little late, and almost everyone was already seated.

Daphne and Astoria stood in front of a carriage in the middle with umbrellas.

The sisters waved to Vincent and Hermione.

Like the boat for the freshmen, the carriage can only seat four people.

Of course, those riding on the back of the Thestrals don't count.

If it hadn't rained heavily, Vincent would have liked to take Hermione to experience it.

After entering the carriage, Daphne quickly took Hermione's hand and said, "I was wondering why you disappeared. It turns out you were with your boyfriend."

Her tone was sour, and Hermione felt a little embarrassed. "Actually, we don't want to drive directly to school..."

Being chased by Muggle police? Even a helicopter was dispatched?

Hermione talked about the thrilling adventure just now, and Daphne and Astoria's eyes were full of stars.

"Envy?"

The two sisters nodded subconsciously.

Hermione's lips curled up into a wicked smile, "If you're jealous, why don't you find a boyfriend right away."

Daphne glanced at Vincent who was sitting opposite her and doing nothing. "Forget about the boys in school. You have already picked up the best ones. I don't like those ugly ones."

"Who made you have such high standards?"

"Hehe——" Daphne sneered and stretched her hand to the ticklish spot on her waist, "How dare you, little girl, say such a sarcastic remark."

Hermione giggled as she was tickled, "Don't... I'm ticklish..."

As the noise went on, Astoria, who was always well-behaved and sensible, also joined in.

Vincent pretended not to see the look in his girlfriend's eyes that was asking for help.

As for matters between girls, it’s better for boys not to meddle in their affairs.

But they didn't seem to treat him as an outsider, and it was easy for him to be exposed if they were pulling and tugging at each other.

The Thestrals flew over the gate with winged warthog sculptures on both sides with a hundred carriages, and stopped steadily in front of the long stone steps.

Vincent was the first to get off the bus.

After waiting for a few minutes, the three girls came out after tidying up their messy clothes.

The four followed the students up the stone steps.

From a distance, several figures could be seen running towards the castle from the Forbidden Forest.

"Lao Wen! I found it!"

As soon as James, who was at the front, finished speaking, he was knocked to the ground by Fred behind him.

George picked up the car keys, but Alfred snatched them away just as he got them.

"Haha! I got it!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the car keys were in Cedric's hands.

After he got it, he rushed over directly.

The little badger who made a fortune in silence finally got the right to use the car for one day.

The twins were naturally unhappy. They used magic to dry their clothes, then followed Cedric, who looked very proud, into the castle with a smug grin on his face.

The hallway was wet everywhere, with puddles of water all over the floor.

As soon as Vincent walked into the castle, he suddenly had a strange feeling, as if he had established some kind of connection with the castle.

He raised his hand suddenly, and a large red balloon filled with water was blocked by the rising floor.

The three girls were all startled. They glared fiercely at Peeves who was in mid-air with a look of surprise on his face.

Just as several boys were about to fight back, Hermione had already drawn her wand and cast a Freezing Curse on Peeves, then swung her hand and slammed it out of the hall.

If it weren't for Vincent, their clothes would definitely be wet.

"Old Wen, you reacted quickly enough."

"Uh..." Vincent stared blankly at his raised hand, "I feel like something is different."

"What's the difference?" Fred said, and George reached out his hand to Cedric sinisterly.

"Very different." Vincent seemed to know what the two would do in advance. He moved his fingers slightly and lifted the floor under Cedric's feet.

George was almost hit on the nose, "Dude, can you see through things now?"

Vincent's eyes were always on his hands. "It's not perspective, but I seem to have established some kind of connection with the castle, which allows me to roughly know what is happening around me."

"And..." His fingers moved, and the lifted floor fell back quietly, "And I seem to have gained the authority to control the castle."

Controlling the castle is the exclusive right of the principal, not even the school directors have this authority.

Hermione frowned and suddenly covered her mouth with both hands, her delicate face full of surprise, "Vincent, the magic contract you made with Gugu and Uncle Restman to temporarily serve as school directors is until you come of age, right?"

"Yeah." Vincent was also shocked.

The remaining few people stared at each other in amazement.

If you want to become a Hogwarts board member, gold Galleons are secondary. The key is to have a certain degree of fame and influence in the wizarding world.

Since the school was founded, no one has ever held more than two seats on the board of directors.

In order to circumvent the regulations, Vincent let others temporarily take over seven board seats. From the moment he became an adult and stepped into the castle, he took back the seven board seats at the same time.

The provisions of the magic contract do limit one person to only one school board seat, but it does not stipulate that multiple contracts cannot be effective at the same time.

Therefore, by chance and coincidence, Vincent became the largest director of Hogwarts in a thousand years, and thus obtained some of the exclusive powers of the headmaster.
