Hogwarts: Jade, stop controlling Harry!

Chapter 95: Even before enrolling in school, he was already very popular with the girls (Please read on! 3/3)

After breakfast, we chatted for a while longer.

Hermione asked Harry many questions about Potions, which Harry had already read in the books, and he answered them one by one.

Since his father's Guardian Charm helped him banish the Dark Lord's lingering spirit, Harry's memory has become exceptionally good.

This allowed Harry, whose grades weren't particularly outstanding in elementary school, to temporarily play the role of a top student in front of Hermione.

It's just past ten o'clock.

The group of four set off for King's Cross Station.

However, when it came time to move the luggage, Harry and Mr. Granger had a small argument again.

"Let me move them, sir."

Considering that the Grangers had come all the way to pick him up, Harry volunteered to help Hermione with her luggage, but Mr. Granger refused.

"No need, Harry, let me handle these boxes. They're quite heavy."

"But I'm very strong, so let me do it, sir," Harry insisted.

And without waiting for Mr. Granger to refuse again, he picked up the suitcases in each hand and strode out of the bar, leaving the Granger family dumbfounded.

When they chased after him, they saw Harry effortlessly stuff the huge, heavy suitcase into the trunk with just one hand!

"My goodness...this child is so strong!" Mrs. Granger exclaimed.

Mr. Granger was surprised and somewhat ashamed, because he had almost strained his back that morning while moving Hermione's suitcase...

It seems he needs to consider the supposedly miraculous food therapy from the East.

As for Hermione, she now completely believes Harry's claim that he has been consistently training.

Hermione was also wondering if she should ask Harry for advice on how to train her body...

The consequences of Harry's actions were...

When it was time to get off the train, he offered to help with the luggage, and Mr. Granger did not refuse to help again.

They walked into King's Cross Station as naturally as a family of four.

"I think we can leave it here."

Hermione's face flushed red as she said to her parents, "I can go in with Harry."

Looking at her daughter, who showed no reluctance to leave her parents, but only anticipation and longing for the new life she was about to begin.

The Grangers both marveled at their daughter's independence and readily agreed to her request.

Before leaving, Mrs. Granger quietly reminded her daughter to take good care of herself at school.

Mr. Granger patted Harry on the shoulder and asked him to look after Hermione.

Mr. Granger now also feels that Harry is so composed that he doesn't seem like a child who has just turned eleven.

Although Harry is indeed still a child, he is actually younger than Hermione—Harry is a Leo born at the end of July, while Hermione is a Virgo born in September, but is a year older than Harry.

"Don't worry, I'll take good care of Hermione," Harry assured him.

Mr. Granger said nothing more, and smiled as he watched Harry and Hermione, each pushing a luggage cart, walk into the train station together and disappear into the distance.

Mrs. Granger wiped away her tears sadly, and Mr. Granger put his arm around his wife's shoulder and whispered.

"Darling, I think Hermione will be very happy at Hogwarts."

"I hope so," said Mrs. Granger.

Mr. Granger replied, "It certainly will!"

On the way to Platform 9¾.

Hermione kept glancing at Harry beside her, which made Harry feel a little uncomfortable.

"What's wrong with me?" Harry asked, puzzled. "Is there something on my face?"

"No," Hermione shook her head, speaking frankly, "I was just wondering, didn't you feel nervous or excited?"

She was a little nervous about leaving her parents, while Harry seemed completely calm and composed.

"Uh...it's alright." Harry scratched his head.

He was indeed looking forward to seeing what Hogwarts would be like, but he wasn't nervous or too excited.

Actually, no.

Harry felt that every adventure he had experienced was much more exciting than going to school.

It's just taking the train to school...

With Hermione by his side, Harry felt he needed to act even more like a man.

"But you don't seem nervous at all... well, that makes me feel relaxed too," Hermione said helplessly.

"Then you should thank me," Harry joked.

Hermione rolled her eyes, puffing out her cheeks, looking more like a little squirrel.

"Do you know where Platform Nine and Three-Quarters is?" Hermione asked, ignoring Harry and walking a short distance before turning back to ask, her tone sounding like a test.

Hermione certainly knew where the platform was; she had seen it in the book, but she wasn't sure if Harry knew it too.

If Harry didn't know, she could regain some of her confidence and pride as a top student!

Planned √

To Hermione's disappointment, Harry calmly glanced around and then pointed to the intersection of Platform 9 and Platform 10.

"I think that's it."

When Hermione turned her head, she saw a glimpse of clothing disappear!

"Fine! You cheated!" Hermione shouted immediately.

She was certain Harry had seen someone go in before he said that.

Harry shrugged. He did see an old woman pushing a stroller, with a stumbling little boy following her inside.

Even if he didn't see it, Harry would still look around the neighborhood, hoping that the wizards had somehow hidden the entrance.

"But I found it too, didn't I?" Harry said with a smile.

Hermione laughed too.

The two arrived at Platform 9¾.

"Ladies first," Harry said modestly.

Hermione didn't stand on ceremony; her face was tense, and she looked a little nervous.

However, Hermione didn't want to show it in front of Harry, so she readily agreed: "Then I'll demonstrate for you first."

"I'll be waiting for you inside, so hurry up and catch up."

Harry nodded without saying anything.

Hermione then turned around, pushed the cart, and walked straight ahead, faster and faster!

When she opened her eyes again, everything in front of her was completely different from before!

An old-fashioned steam train was parked next to the platform, puffing out white smoke, while the surrounding area was bustling and peculiar.

Students of all ages, and their parents seeing them off; an owl in a cage chirping incessantly; and cats of all colors darting about at people's feet.

This scene was beyond anything Hermione had ever imagined!

She stared wide-eyed for a long time before remembering to move aside.

What puzzled Hermione was why Harry hadn't come in yet.

Could he possibly get lost in such a short distance?

Hermione was anxiously thinking.

What if Harry went to the wrong place, deviated from the right direction, or bumped into a pedestrian?

Harry suddenly appeared.

"Harry!"

Hermione immediately breathed a sigh of relief and went to greet him, before she could even ask him why he was so slow.

The red-haired family that Harry had seen before at the Leaky Cauldron also filed out!

"Look who we've met—the clever Miss Granger!"

"—Mr. Potter's good friend, right? Are you waiting for us, or for Harry?"

The twins started joking as soon as they saw Hermione.

Hermione blushed again, and Harry, meeting Hermione's gaze, explained softly, "I met them just as I was about to come in."

""

Fortunately, Harry had seen the photos left by Jade and easily recognized the Weasleys who had invited him to their home.

"George! Fred! Shut your mouths and stop making such ridiculous jokes!"

Mrs. Weasley scolded her two sons to help Harry and Hermione out of the predicament.

Harry immediately understood why Jade liked Mrs. Weasley.

She is indeed a very good mother and a qualified parent!

Mrs. Weasley turned to Harry and Hermione and said, "I'm sorry, dears."

"It's alright," Hermione said, rubbing her nose.

Mrs. Weasley smiled slightly and turned to Harry: "Harry, I was going to invite you to the station, but the train might be a bit crowded, so..."

Harry didn't quite understand what Mrs. Weasley meant.

What kind of car?

A bus... I don't think so, otherwise she wouldn't have said it was crowded.

But the car probably wouldn't be big enough to fit their whole family.

Harry didn't ask any further questions and politely replied, "It's alright, you're too kind."

At the same time, Harry noticed Ron and Ginny standing behind Mrs. Weasley.

Ron is quite young and has some freckles on his face, making him easy to spot. As for Ginny...

Harry recalled Jade's words, and then he thought of Ginny, who was hiding behind her mother, only showing half her face, and secretly staring at him.

He immediately understood what Xiaoyu meant when she said Ginny liked him a lot.

Harry just couldn't understand why he felt much older than Ginny, even though Ginny should only be a year younger than him.

Hi Ron, good afternoon Ginny.

As Harry thought about it, he took the initiative to greet them, mainly because he was worried that they would notice something was wrong.

It's not a big deal in Diagon Alley, but it would be troublesome if they were spotted at school.

He can't just tell everyone he's had a head injury and that's why he has a bad memory, right? Harry isn't that stupid.

"Hello Harry!" Ron responded enthusiastically.

Ginny's face immediately turned red, and she stammered an agreement before hiding away and remaining silent.

Hermione stood aside watching this scene, and for some reason, she felt a little uneasy.

She attributed the reason to feeling neglected.

"I think we should go up and find a spot beforehand, that would be more convenient, what do you think, Harry?" Hermione suggested.

Harry nodded immediately.

Although he had a good impression of the Weasleys, saying too much was just asking for trouble.

Harry was hoping Jade would arrive soon so he could consult her when he was in doubt.

"That's right, everyone hurry up and get on the bus, don't dawdle!" Mrs. Weasley clapped her hands and urged.

The twin brothers exchanged a smile and said in a teasing tone, "Looks like our savior is already quite popular with girls even before he's enrolled."

"Ginny, you'd better watch out, you already have a rival!"

After saying that, the twin brothers ran away before their mother's slap could land heavily on them.

Harry was left looking embarrassed, and Hermione looked equally embarrassed.

"Well, kids, don't listen to those two talking nonsense," Mrs. Weasley said helplessly.

"It's alright, let's get in the car first." With that, Harry and Hermione fled in panic.

Hermione was sulking the whole way.

But she couldn't explain why she was angry!

Whether she was angry at the twins for their reckless words, or something else, only Hermione knew.

No matter what.

The two managed to board the train without incident and were lucky enough to find an empty compartment!

Harry also found a toad while carrying his luggage.

He took it with him on the train so that he wouldn't get run over by the wheels after the train started moving.

As Harry sat down, let out a long sigh, and turned to gaze absently at the billowing white smoke outside the window, he felt that Hogwarts was already within reach.
