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

"Fluorescent flicker!"

Walking down the dark, damp passageway, Hermione picked up her wand, and the melodious sound echoed in the small space.

As the glittering light lit up from the wand, the dark path ahead was illuminated.

"Be mindful of the ground under your feet. "

Lorne walked in front and whispered to the girl behind him.

This secret passage to the screaming shack, although he had known it from vague memories, was the first time he had come here.

So inevitably there will be some caution.

The entire passage is made of hard stones, so it is inevitable that there will be some unevenness in the ground.

The little witch who followed behind was holding a wand that emitted a light source in one hand and holding Lorne's hand hidden in the sleeve of her robe in the other.

After walking for about ten more minutes, I finally saw a wooden flip board and a small stone staircase in front of me.

It looks like that's the last exit.

"It's so far!"

Hermione pinched her sore calf and couldn't help but say.

"After all, the Forbidden Forest at Hogwarts is relatively large. "

Lorne explained with a chuckle.

The distance they were now walking had completely crossed the Forbidden Forest above, otherwise they would not have reached Hogsmeade Village.

"Refreshed!"

Looking at the cobweb-strewn plank, Lorne snapped his fingers.

Incidentally, a levitation charm was used to lift the cleaned plank, revealing the obscured space above.

It was the backbone of the house, and it looked like it was covered in cobwebs and dust.

Lorne walked up the stone staircase.

Miss Granger was not far behind.

It's just that after stepping into this house, both of them subconsciously frowned, and Hermione directly covered her mouth and nose with her clothes.

It's so messy!

The dilapidated furniture scattered on the floor is covered in dust and spider silk, and a few unknown reptiles can be seen around, as if it were a haunted house that no one has cleaned for decades.

"Clean up a little!"

Hermione couldn't help but extinguish the fluorescent flicker, and used her wand to clean the entire dilapidated cabin.

The dust had cleared, revealing patched floors and rag-covered walls, and the room looked gloomy.

The dappled sunlight slowly shone on the two of them through the wooden nailed windows.

There was silence all around, and Lorne took a step forward, the floor creaking and souring as if it might collapse at any moment.

"What kind of place is this—it looks weird!" Hermione whispered to herself, looking at the tattered furniture around her.

"Screaming Shack, this is the famous haunted house in Hogsmeade, and wizards don't usually come here. "

Lorne said with a slight frown.

He noticed that the whole house seemed to be shaking irregularly, as if under a spell.

A shaky house should be combined with a shady environment, and it is indeed appropriate to call it a haunted house.

"Let's go, we're out of the Hogwarts area now. "

As he spoke, Lorne wrapped his hand around the girl's waist.

Feeling the warmth beside her, Hermione smiled lightly.

As the space gradually tore apart, the figures of the two men disappeared into the screaming shack in the blink of an eye.

This is a newly learned phantom shifter, and there is no need to set spatial coordinates to use it, but it is much easier to use than Kamui's teleportation.

When Hermione opened her eyes again, she saw a patch of emerald green vines wrapped around the planked house.

It is the screaming shack known as the Haunted House.

Behind him is a forest, with towering trees standing at their roots.

"Hogsmeade is over here. "

Lorne opened the compass on his wrist, and the pointer pointed to the depths of the forest.

After all, it was the first time he had come to this place, so he was not very familiar with the surrounding environment, and could only rely on the compass in his hand to judge the direction.

I have to say, sometimes Captain Jack's compass is really useful.

Beyond the dense pine needle trees, a town with strange architecture soon appeared not far away.

The buildings look like they are left over from the last century, and they look very contemporary.

"Hogsmeade Village..."

Hermione approached a sign and read it softly as she watched the words read it aloud.

Her bright brown eyes looked curiously at the wizarding town.

I didn't expect to actually come out of Hogwarts.

"The date between the two of us is about to begin. "

Lorne walked up to her, smiled and took her little hand.

When you walk into this wizarding town, there are all kinds of shops on both sides of the road, such as magic props, potion shops, pig's head bars...

Even Lorne was curious.

Duke Honey Confectionery.

"Two large pieces of chocolate, thank you. "

Lorne handed over a gold Galleon, then took the two pieces of chocolate that had been packaged.

He had heard Fred and George talk about the store, and the candy it sold tasted good.

"It's yours. "

After walking out of the candy store, Lorne handed a piece of chocolate to the little witch beside him, and then prepared to go to a wizard clothing store not far away.

Get ready to buy some nice clothes for your little girlfriend.

Speaking of which, is he considered a cultivator?

Lorne pondered for a moment.

"You'll gain weight if you eat such a big piece of chocolate..."

Looking at chocolates the size of a book, Miss Hermione hesitated to bite it.

"Don't worry, I won't dislike you. "

Lorne said with a smile and pinching the tip of her little nose.

"If you dare to dislike me..."

The lion cub was halfway through his threat when Lorne dragged him into a lavishly decorated clothing store.

Fengya brand?

She remembered hearing about it in the daily newspapers, as if it was the most famous clothing chain in the wizarding world.

Wouldn't it be too expensive?

"What do you need to buy, two young Hogwarts couples?"

As soon as she stepped into the shop, a witch in a robe approached and asked with a smile.

"Let's see for ourselves first. "

Lorne wasn't surprised that his identity was revealed, after all, the two men came out in college robes.

When he came to the clothing area inside, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"I think... You're more suitable for black silk. "

Lorne pointed to the stocking area not far away and said to Miss Hermione, who tilted her head.
