Hogwarts: A little lion in the skin of the Eagle School

"John, what have you been looking at these past few days? I've seen you carrying around books I've never seen before."

During lunch, Ryan noticed John flipping through a book while eating and asked him a question.

John looked up, swallowed the food in his mouth, and spoke slowly.

"Oh, it's nothing, just some cases of magical creatures injuring people."

"Why are you looking at this?"

This time it was Titus who asked the question, and John didn't hide anything and explained it directly.

"You guys remember that hippogriff that scratched that Malfoy guy last semester, right?"

"I remember. Are you checking the case files for this matter?"

The group naturally remembered the winged beast, as it had only happened last semester.

"Well, that winged beast isn't doing too well right now, and as you know, I'm close to Hermione, and she wants to help that winged beast."

"So I thought I'd help out."

After hearing John's explanation, Titus suddenly understood.

John and Hermione visited Hagrid's Hut last semester, apparently for this reason.

Actually, he had learned about the winged beast incident, and it was quite unjustly treated.

The winged beast itself shouldn't have had any problems; it was that Malfoy guy's provocation that caused the accident.

And ultimately, no serious injuries or disabilities occurred.

"So what's the current situation with that winged beast?"

Titus then asked.

John then shared what he had heard from Hagrid's cabin with the others.

They only just learned the whole story.

Ryan and Ethan couldn't quite grasp the shady dealings among the powerful and wealthy.

But what they were clear about was that the winged beast had definitely been treated unfairly.

Titus, on the other hand, seemed to take it for granted. Such things were not uncommon in the magical world, where powerful families could often influence the outcome of trials through money and influence.

"John, if you really want to help that winged beast, I remember reading about a similar case in a book about magical creatures at home."

"I'll write a letter back home and have my father send it over."

Titus thought for a moment, then spoke slowly.

"It's all thanks to you, Titus. Your uncle's room full of books wasn't collected in vain."

Upon hearing this, John immediately gave a thumbs up.

Titus rolled his eyes. What a compliment!

"Don't be too happy yet. To be honest, I don't think the situation of that winged beast is very optimistic."

"We should start planning a rescue operation as soon as possible."

John fell silent after Titus said this.

You know what, it's true.

However, things are possible with human effort. We should first consider getting acquitted. If that fails, we can consider other methods later.

Titus was quite considerate; he immediately began writing a letter to Mr. Crowe, asking him to send over the relevant books.

I heard that he wrote a letter home a few days ago, and that time he sent Sirius's address to him.

In his reply, Mr. Crow also indicated that he really intended to visit Sirius.

I hope Sirius doesn't mind that I gave his address to Mr. Crowe.

If you mind, I'll just pretend I didn't hear it.

hehe~

......

Mr. Crow's reply came sooner than John had expected.

I sent the letter yesterday at noon and received a reply this morning.

Of course, this might also be thanks to the waffle, which wobbled into the Great Hall in the morning and then landed with a thud in front of Titus.

He lay panting on a heavy bundle.

John felt sorry for it and quickly gave it some water to drink.

Titus calmly opened the package, and a thick book, "Complete Collection of Cases of Magical Creature Trials," slid out.

John was also taken aback when he saw the book. He thought Titus was just talking about an ordinary book about magical creatures, but he didn't expect it to be a complete record of cases.

This thing shouldn't be something that just anyone can get their hands on, right?

Hmm, John is now starting to believe that Titus's family is something special.

Titus handed the book to John.

"Here, go look it up yourself. I've forgotten where I saw the case of winged beasts."

"Thank you, Titus. If you were a woman, I would hug you and kiss you twice."

John took the book and said jokingly.

Upon hearing this, Titus's expression immediately turned one of utter disgust.

"No, how can you repay kindness with enmity?"

Ryan and the others standing nearby were also amused by these words.

John began to peruse the complete record of cases, while Titus took out an envelope tucked inside the package and began to read it.

This is his father's reply to him.

Titus's expression after reading the letter was quite interesting.

"My dad really did go to visit Sirius."

John and the others were taken aback by what they heard and all looked at Titus.

Titus then held the letter in his hand and read it aloud.

"He said that after receiving Sirius's address a few days ago, he went to visit him that same day."

"And they seemed to be having a good chat."

"Dad also said that they've agreed to go to the Quidditch World Cup together, which means Sirius will be going with us!"

"And Sirius Black will also be bringing Harry Potter, and... Harry Potter's friends?"

Upon hearing this news, the group exchanged bewildered glances.

What a strange turn of events!

I originally thought this trip would only involve a few acquaintances.

Now, suddenly, Sirius Black and Harry Potter's group are being added.

Aside from John, the others had only met Harry Potter a few times and weren't particularly close to him, let alone friends with him.

If we actually act together, it will inevitably be a bit awkward.

Titus scratched his head, wondering how to reply and whether he should agree to his father's decision.

Harry Potter is a popular Seeker at Hogwarts, and these Quidditch enthusiasts should be able to get along with Harry.

Harry's friends should get along well... right?

Most importantly... Titus suddenly looked at John, then turned back to look at Hermione over Gryffindor.

Yeah, for my good brother, I'll do it!

Titus made up his mind and quickly picked up his quill to reply.

John and the others were taken aback when they saw Titus suddenly start writing a reply.

"What are you going to say?"

Titus, without looking up, said, "What else can I say? Since Dad has already made the arrangements, we can only welcome them."

John and the others exchanged glances but said nothing.

After all, Mr. Crowley was hosting this trip, so they certainly couldn't voice their opinions.

Ryan and his friends were really keen to see the Quidditch World Cup and didn't want to miss it, so they didn't care if there were strangers accompanying them.

John, on the other hand, didn't care. He was just going to broaden his horizons, and it didn't matter who he went with.

The only thing that bothered him was Sirius Black...
