Chapter 284 The Trip to Diagon Alley Ends
Yang Tian showed a satisfied smile on his face, and was about to leave with his friends, but he saw the little girl Ginny standing there with grievance and resentment. His heart softened, and he slowly walked towards Ginny and said softly: "Don't pay too much attention to other people's pointing and pointing; you have to understand that the love of your parents and brothers, and the little things in life, are much more important than gold galleons. How about it? Do you want to go shopping with us?"
At this moment, Ginny was in a struggle. When the heavy book almost hit her, it was her brother who stepped forward to block the danger; and when she felt extremely embarrassed, it was he who gave her warm comfort. This series of actions made Ginny feel an unprecedented sense of security.
At this time, Ginny hesitated. When she was almost hit by a book, this brother stood in front of her; when she felt the most embarrassed, it was this brother who comforted her. All of this made Ginny feel safe.
However, when she saw that Harry and Ron next to her didn't seem to have the intention to go together, the little girl still shook her head firmly. After all, Harry was her idol since she was a child! The holiday was not long, and she didn't want to miss any opportunity to spend time with her idol.
Yang Tian naturally understood this, so he did not force it, but just smiled and nodded to show his understanding. Then, he turned his gaze to Hagrid and asked, "So, Hagrid, do you want to go with us?"
Hagrid hesitated for a moment, then replied, "I'm afraid I can't do that today. I have to rush to get the carnivorous slug repellent back to Hogwarts. Remember to come to my cabin when you get back to school."
"Okay, I will." Yang Tian agreed readily. Then, they chatted for a few more words before Yang Tian left with his friends...
In the following time, several people wandered around Diagon Alley while waiting for other members to gather. Soon, Neville, Hannah, Zhang Qiu, Penelope... the friends showed up one by one, but Cedric was the only one missing.
"Still can't contact senior?" Neville asked worriedly.
"Yes, since returning from the trip to Albania, Senior Cedric has never spoken in the communication ring again." Yang Tian was also in a heavy mood: "I don't know what happened."
George said uncertainly, "Maybe nothing happened. Doesn't Cedric's father, Amos Diggory, work in the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures of the Ministry of Magic? I asked my father a few days ago, and he said that Amos seemed to have resigned. I think this incident might have affected Cedric."
"Resign?" Hannah exclaimed, "Oh my God! What on earth happened? Why would he resign all of a sudden? That job is in the Ministry of Magic! This is unbelievable!"
"What do you think...could it be..." Zhang Qiu hesitated and wanted to say something, but ultimately did not utter it out loud.
"Just tell me what you've discovered. Why are you hesitating?" Penelope asked in confusion.
"Well, I'm just not sure if my guess is correct." Zhang Qiu spread his hands helplessly and said, "I was wondering if Senior Cedric would be poached by other magic schools? For example... Durmstrang?"
"Durmstrang? Why do you say that?" Fred became interested first and asked quickly.
"During the holidays, the senior once privately asked me about my impression of Durmstrang and whether I would like to go to school there." Zhang Qiu explained: "You know, how could that be possible? Of course I prefer Hogwarts and would rather be with everyone. But after I replied, the senior never spoke to me again."
"It seems that this possibility is very high!" Pansy said with a heavy tone: "As far as I know, at least three seniors from Slytherin have chosen to study at Durmstrang."
After hearing this, everyone fell silent. Everyone was in a bad mood. They really didn't understand what conditions Durmstrang had used to convince Cedric. Was that really more important than being together?
"Okay, what's the big deal? Everyone has their own choice. Only those who stay are true friends. Why bother about so many things?" Parvati said carelessly.
"Yes, Parvati is absolutely right! You think too much! Let's just look at the friends around us. They are the ones who deserve our support." Fred said in a firm tone.
"Well said, everyone cheer up and follow me." Yang Tian laughed and said, "Today I will introduce one of my brothers to you. He will also enter Hogwarts this year. No matter which college he finally enters, you have to take care of him."
"No problem, leave it to us." Padma said with a smile: "By the way, Yang Tian, my sister and I just returned to England. According to the agreement, we have to stay at your house before the end of the vacation."
"No problem, there are enough rooms. Is there anyone who wants to visit Foley Manor?" Yang Tian asked cheerfully.
"Come on, school is about to start, and we have to spend time with our parents."
"That's right, there's plenty of time after school starts."
......
Everyone was talking and laughing as they headed towards the place they had agreed to meet with Sophie...
It was almost evening, the afterglow of the setting sun cast on the earth, and Yang Tian and his group finally returned to Foley Manor. There were four of them when they set out, but now there were six when they returned.
Everyone was very happy when they stepped into the gate of the manor.
However, if we were to say who is the happiest, it would undoubtedly be Cook. Just this afternoon, Yang Tian introduced more than ten brothers and sisters to him. This is a blessing for Cook, who is often alone. The brothers and sisters are very kind to him, making him feel unprecedented friendship and warmth. Thinking about studying and living with these brothers and sisters in the future, it would be a miracle if he is not happy!
Of course, Sophie was the happiest when three little ones suddenly came to visit her home, because there were people who could experience her prank skills again!
Yang Tian, who knew the inside story, and Cook, who had suffered, had already secretly hidden away; thus, the completely unprepared Patil sisters suffered! The two sisters spent the whole night in tears and laughter. They had never seen such a funny elder. Of course, this also allowed the two to integrate into the life of the Forley Manor in the fastest way.
This prank lasted until everyone went to bed...
