There were some minor incidents on the day of departure.
First, Fred forgot to take his Filibuster fireworks, then George forgot to bring his flying broom, and then Ron said he had to go to the toilet.
After going around in circles, it seemed that they were about to miss the departure time of the Hogwarts Express.
This made Mr. Weasley eager to move.
"No one will see it. There is a small button here. It is an invisible booster I installed - it can send us to the sky - then we fly above the clouds, and it will arrive in ten minutes. No one will know."
Since he secretly modified this flying magic car, he has not really experienced it.
"No, Arthur!"
Mrs. Weasley firmly refused him.
With the last ten minutes before the train departed, they arrived at King's Cross Station.
Except for Damon, everyone was a little nervous - they had to pretend to pass through the wall casually within ten minutes and not attract the attention of Muggles.
"Harry, you go in first, don't push the luggage cart, I'll watch behind you."
Thinking of Dobby's existence, he kept a careful eye.
Sure enough, after Mrs. Weasley and Ginny disappeared, Harry followed closely, but was knocked to the ground by the wall.
"What's going on?"
He hurriedly got up from the ground and turned to look at Damon - it seemed that the other party had expected all this?
'Microcosmic Spells (Incantatio Microcosmica)'
Damon silently chanted the spell in his heart, his eyes glowing with a faint fluorescence - in the month of practicing Apparition, his proficiency in silent casting has also increased a lot.
However, the more so, the more he felt that house elves were really a dangerous and even terrifying existence - they could Apparate anytime, anywhere, and cast spells silently. If this kind of creature was not defeated and signed a slave contract, it would be far more harmful than Voldemort.
Whether it was Voldemort or Grindelwald, if they could win over a hundred house elves as their subordinates, it would be much better than them trying to gather those subordinates.
Although they couldn't do that.
After all, Voldemort advocated spreading fear, and Grindelwald was a bit like a racist. Although he was friendly to wizards, he would kill
Muggles if he wanted to. Such a person probably didn't take the elves seriously at all.
"It should be Dobby."
Damon said softly.
"Dobby? The one who almost got Harry kicked out by the Dursleys?"
"It actually followed here? What exactly does it want to do?"
"It wants to protect you, but it used the wrong method."
Damon pressed his right thumb and middle finger to the wall and snapped his fingers lightly.
"Snap."
The sound seemed to be only a sound, but it continued to spread in the magical vision, dissolving all the magical barriers in front like water waves.
"Okay, let's get on the train and talk about it."
"I'll go first this time!"
Ron saw that Harry was still frightened after the collision just now, and suggested to go first.
This time he took the luggage cart directly, took a deep breath, and crashed directly into the wall pillar!
At the moment when the luggage cart was about to collide with the wall pillar, Harry subconsciously closed his eyes.
"Okay, with me here, he can't interfere here again, you should leave as well."
Harry opened his eyes, and Ron was gone.
"Okay!"
Harry nodded and pushed the cart in.
Damon looked around and felt a shadow disappear in an instant when he looked at it.
He didn't pay much attention and entered the station.
Harry and Ron were still waiting for him. The other members of the Weasley family were nowhere to be seen. They must be in a hurry to catch the train.
"Damon, the train is leaving, hurry!"
The two called Damon and the three of them ran together.
After they got on the train, there were not many students in the aisle of the carriage. The three of them quickly moved between the seats, causing quite a stir.
Most of them were Harry's, a small number were Damon's, and Ron was 'that guy'.
"Hey, Damon, Harry, here!"
Hermione's head popped out of the far carriage and waved to the three people. Neville followed closely behind her, half of his body was out of the carriage.
After they sat down, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and started talking - the content was mostly about the upcoming Professor Lockhart.
Hermione seemed to be even more enthusiastic than Ron, constantly sharing with everyone the glorious deeds recorded in the book by Lockhart. Except for Damon, everyone was discussing with great interest.
Damon took out a book called "Curses and Counter-Curses" to kill time.
But soon, he had no time to read.
As the train started, after the first group of people heard that Damon White was in this carriage, waves of Slytherin students rushed here and invited Damon to visit their carriage.
Even if Damon closed the door of the carriage, greetings from outside the door continued. The polite and persistent persistence of these people really made people feel helpless.
Such a big commotion even attracted the attention of the first-year freshmen who were not sorted. Many of them secretly pulled their hands and stuck their heads out, looking at the direction that had been blocked by the crowd from a distance. The brave ones even left the carriage and followed the crowd.
In the end, Gemma Farley stood up.
"The situation has become so serious, do you still insist on staying in this compartment?"
She looked at Damon with a smile on her face - no matter which compartment Damon went to visit, she would definitely follow him.
"Of course." Damon also smiled and took out his wand, "I have a little hobby - I like to say no to self-righteous people."
He waved his wand, and the door of the compartment suddenly began to change.
Amid a burst of exclamations, the door that had been opened quickly closed on the left and right, and then a new layer of door panels appeared on the top and bottom, like a big mouth biting together, turning into an iron wall that refused to enter - in the middle of it, there was a pattern of a sphinx, and a line of text floated under the head.
[What has four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three legs in the evening? ]
Gemma stared at the "brand new" door in front of her, and she didn't expect that she would be rejected like this.
If someone else treated her like this, she would have left in anger.
But the person sitting inside was Damon, so it was naturally another story.
"What is this, a riddle - interesting, if this is the challenge he gave, let's give it a try!"
"Watch out for the Ravenclaws! Don't let them get close!"
"No to Gryffindors either, they will leak the news!"
They quickly reached a consensus, but there were prefects from three other colleges around, how could they be satisfied?
"Are you a little arrogant?"
The Gryffindor prefects stood up, followed by the Ravenclaw prefects, "Yeah, we can't just pretend we didn't see it, since it's a riddle, we should be the ones to solve it. With your empty brains, I'm afraid you won't be able to solve it even when the train arrives." Inside the
carriage, Damon snapped his fingers casually, and all the sounds outside the door were blocked out.
"It's quiet now."
He smiled at everyone and continued reading.
Hermione and the others began to look at him
