Hogwarts: The frog cub brings back the Dragon Slayer Crystal at the beginning

Early the next morning.

Today was the day Fred and the others were ready to sell the cards, and the two of them had been planning at the dinner table last night.

Especially since today is still a day off.

The two of them were going to pull both Lee Jordan and Wood over, and they had a small table ready for the two of them to have a Hearthstone showdown to attract attention.

Of course, these two people also have a card pack payment.

Wood and the others, as internal players, have been looking forward to the sale of these cards for a long time.

Lee Jordan even called it a game overhaul in the wizarding world, and he must be invited to be a referee and narrator during the game.

Fred and George got up very early, and even Harry and Ron were forced to pull up.

Under the watchful eye of the fat lady, a group of people left the Gryffindor Point Lounge.

"It's only six o'clock, are the wizards of Gryffindor so diligent?"

She muttered in confusion.

At the moment, she was the most diligent and had seen a Miss Granger, and even the fat lady felt that she should go to Ravenclaw instead of Gryffindor.

It's a shame to be here.

......

Inside a gloomy Slytherin dormitory.

It was about eight o'clock when Lorne got up.

In the last few days, I have to look at Tom's journal, so I haven't gone to sleep with Hermione.

He'd noticed something was wrong with this journal lately.

No matter what Lorne writes these two days, it won't give any reply.

Even the threat of "I'm going to throw you in the bathroom" didn't wake up Senior Tom.

Since it was a good day off, Lorne didn't put on a Slytherin robe with a green background, but a white shirt and gray coat.

After brushing his blonde hair, Lorne nodded in satisfaction.

If you go out like this, you can probably charm a lot of little witches.

He'd even heard Ron mention that there were quite a few Gryffindor witches who had approached him specifically for Lorne's sake.

It made Ron think he had become a heartthrob.

With everything ready, Lorne walked over to his bedside to take a look, where the journal was still lying quietly in a drawer.

Why don't you tempt other people?

Lorne reluctantly closed the drawer.

He's still waiting for Senior Tom to wake up the basilisk, and he doesn't know when.

As for the damage done by the basilisk...

Lorne looked at himself in the mirror, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly.

That's all he cares about.

After packing up his things, he was ready to go to the Great Hall to meet Hermione.

......

Inside the Great Hall of Hogwarts.

Hermione, who knew Lorne well, had been waiting for him in advance with a book.

"Divination, why do you want to learn this?"

Lorne approached and realized that Hermione's book was a horoscope, and he asked with some confusion.

"I've seen prophecies in many books, don't you think it's powerful to predict the future?"

Hermione closed the book when she saw Lorne sitting next to her, ordered a cup of black tea and placed it in front of him.

"Drink this today."

She said, curling the corners of her mouth.

“... Yes. "

The corners of Lorne's mouth twitched, and he withdrew the words that he was about to order chocolate milk.

"Two pumpkin pies and an omelette, thank you."

After a brief breakfast, Hermione was a little confused.

"Harry and Ron, it's almost ten o'clock."

"The two of them probably have already been opened by Fredela."

Lorne said, taking a sip of black tea.

He still had Hermione's Astrology in his hand, and he remembered that it required talent.

After a casual glance, Lorne gave up.

There are so many things to study in it that the time consumed is completely disproportionate to the gains.

If you have time to learn this, you might as well go to the Forbidden Forest to catch a horseman and teach it on the spot.

At least the centaurs' predictions were accurate.

"Shall we go to the library now or do we have the Room of Requirement?"

Hermione asked, turning her face sideways as she turned the delicate ring on her finger.

"It's morning, my dear."

Lorne reminded.

"We might as well go and see how Fred and the others are doing."

"But... We haven't been to the Room of Requirement for days. "

Hermione's tone was a little tangled.

"I'll go tonight."

Lorne was fed up with the gloomy dorm room, and he wanted to fall asleep watching the moonlight.

"Uh-huh!"

Hermione nodded hurriedly, she was fed up with the dorm where no one spoke.

After making their decision, the two of them prepared to go to the lawn to find Fred's shop.

There weren't enough rooms at Hogwarts to rent them to shop, so they had to find a place on the lawn.

When he reached the lawn, Lorne was stunned.

I saw that a place near the edge of the black lake was already full of young wizards.

Lorne, who had thought he was going to look for a while, laughed.

It seems that today's harvest should be good.

In the midst of the crowd, he even saw Malfoy and Crabbe, as well as Goyle.

Since there were too many people, Lorne and Hermione simply found a place outside and waited.

Seeing that the darkness was bottomless and the black lake was divided, Lorne used the Transfiguration Charm to turn a stone into a boom and handed it to Hermione.

Then he turned a piece of grass into an earthworm and hung it up.

"Can you catch a fish like this?"

Hermione couldn't help but laugh.

"Try it, just in case."

Lorne chuckled.

He had heard that there were many magical creatures in the Black Lake, and even fishmen.

"Merfolk?"

Miss Hermione tilted her head.

"It's a mermaid, not a mermaid."

Lorne corrected.

These two are not the same species, and the merfolk would be sad if they heard it.

Over time, the number of people on Fred's side has decreased, as all the card packs prepared have been bought.

But there were still a small number of wizards who stayed where they were, watching Cedric and Harry's duel.

That's right, Cedric also joined the ranks of playing cards.

He's going to beat Harry to the ground today!

Lorne tossed a hideous-looking black fish back into the lake, then got up and threw the rod in it.

This black lake can't be full of these chaotic magical creatures...

The two of them had been fishing for that ugly blackfish all afternoon.

Hermione was startled at first, but she gradually got used to it.

"Congratulations, Fred!"

Lorne walked over with a smile, and although Fred and George looked tired, they couldn't suppress the smile on their lips.

"Do you know how many gold galleons we've earned?"

"Fifty of them!"

Speaking of this, Fred couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Lorne looked at the twins with a smile.

Fifty gold galleons, not bad.

In the future, it will definitely develop more than that.

"By the way, did you see Ron?"

Harry, who had ended the duel at this time, asked.

"I just saw him go back to the dorm early." George spread his hands helplessly.

"Is it..."

......

Inside a Slytherin dormitory.

Lorne was going to study in the Room of Requirement with Hermione tonight, so he came back early to get his books and alchemy notes.

It's just that when he opened the drawer, he was suddenly stunned.

After a moment, a smile tugged at Lorne's lips.

Did Tom finally run away from home?
