My Hogwarts has a serious problem.

"If anyone bullies you when you get there, you must write back."

"If the food is bad or the accommodations are unsatisfactory, you must write back."

"If any teacher at that school gives you a hard time, you must tell me and your mother. Don't hide it from us..."

Lynn, sitting in the back seat of the car, couldn't help but interrupt Mr. Granger.

"Don't worry, Uncle, that won't happen. The atmosphere at Hogwarts is generally good, and I'll help take care of Hermione."

Hermione, sitting in front, nodded in agreement.

"That's right, Dad, that's exactly it. You don't need to worry too much."

Mr. Granger was preparing to take Hermione to the station early in the morning, and Lynn naturally hitched a ride with him.

Although Mr. Granger did not have a good impression of Lynn at first, he knew that in the unfamiliar place of Hogwarts, it was better to have someone he knew paying attention to than to have no one at all.

So he remained polite and brought Lynn along, inviting her to visit often during his holidays.

Lynn didn't bring Umaru and Kira with her this time when school started.

Lynn had seriously considered Umaru's future.

After all, her guardian is Kira, the house-elf, and now that Kira has completed her old master's orders, she is completely obedient to Lynn, which means that Lynn has become Umaru's true guardian.

Letting her stay home all day eating, drinking, and watching TV may make her happy, but it won't do her any good for her future development. A silly child is cute, but it wouldn't be good if she's still a silly child when she grows up.

Lynn originally planned to send her to a nearby Muggle elementary school so she could learn to get along with friends and learn some natural science knowledge. As for her identity, Kira would help solve that problem.

But after careful consideration, he abandoned the idea.

Given Umaru's personality, it would be too easy for her to run into trouble if she went to a Muggle elementary school, and it might not even be a good thing.

Lynn could only keep her at home for now, but she bought a lot of learning materials for elementary school students and some popular science books. She also instructed Kira to keep an eye on her and make sure she had at least four hours a day to read and study.

Although what she learns may not necessarily help Umaru who will become a wizard in the future, it can cultivate her study habits.

This way, I can avoid becoming a lazy, good-for-nothing girl who just wants to eat and wait to die.

As for Kira...

Lynn did want to bring it to Hogwarts. After the original story officially began, Kira's identity at Hogwarts greatly helped his nascent plan.

Unfortunately, Kira said that Dumbledore had already dismissed it from Hogwarts, and that it would be somewhat provocative for it to re-enter Hogwarts given its current status.

And it also has to stay at home to take care of Umaru.

However, if necessary, Lynn will still write to it to come to Hogwarts, and at that time, he won't care about anything else.

When they arrived at King's Cross Station, Mr. Granger helped them unload their luggage from the train and carried it to the wall leading to Platform Nine and Three-Quarters.

"That's enough, Dad. Don't worry, I'll be fine over there. Lynn's helping to take care of me too." Hermione gave her father a hug.

Mr. Granger thought to himself, "The more you say that, the more uneasy I become."

"Your mother and I just want you to grow up safely." Mr. Granger patted his daughter on the back, exchanged a glance with Lynn standing behind him, and Lynn nodded at him, to which he smiled back.

Let this guy take care of our daughter for now, and then we'll get Hermione away from him when the time is right.

Mr. Granger consoled himself with this thought.

"See you at Christmas, Dad." Hermione waved goodbye to her father, then walked through the magical wall with Lynn.

They arrived early; the Hogwarts Express had already stopped at the platform, but there weren't many people on the platform.

Lynn helped Hermione put her luggage in the carriage.

Suddenly, Cedric's head popped out from one of the private rooms. He saw Lynn and waved to him.

Lynn waved in response, then turned to look at Hermione.

"Just like when I first enrolled on the Hogwarts Express last year, I had two upperclassmen who guided me. You also have two choices. One is to come with me, and I will introduce you to my friends, who are all nice people. The second is that you can take the initiative to interact with the new students and try to make friends with them."

Hermione didn't choose first, but asked Lynn instead.

Which one did you choose?

"Secondly, I went to a private room that only had new students."

"Then I'll choose the second one too," the little girl told him defiantly.

"Then go ahead. I don't think we'll be able to go into the castle together once we get to Hogwarts. The way new students enter the school is different from the old students every year. There's also a banquet afterwards. If you weren't sorted into Slytherin, you'd have to wait until tomorrow to see each other again."

Lynn didn't tell Hermione that last year, she actually spent a day in a box with a cold freshman. Although they later became friends, their initial interactions were indeed not very pleasant.

"Then we'll see you tomorrow." Hermione planned to part ways with Lynn at this point.

She already knew that Lynn was the best young wizard among the four houses in Hogwarts.

She was also a strong-willed girl, and at least among her classmates, she wanted to be the best and prove that as Lynn's friend, Hermione was no less capable.

Whether in terms of academic performance or interpersonal relationships.

Unfortunately, she was unaware that Lynn had already been involved in two fights in just one school year, indicating that her interpersonal relationships were not very good.

They separated in the carriage.

Lynn found Cedric and Ian.

They were eating snacks in the private room.

The table was piled high with snacks, all Muggle snacks, brought by Ian.

Lynn only glanced at them briefly before realizing that none of the snacks were cheap; some he had never even seen before, but the packaging alone told him they were expensive.

Cedric was very excited about the food. He lived far away from Muggles and had never seen Muggle snacks before. Many of the things were new to him.

"Where did you go after you went through the wall last time?" Ian still remembered this incident.

He searched everywhere but couldn't find Lynn. He even had the person his family sent to pick him up go to the station's broadcasting room to ask for help, but they still couldn't find Lynn and eventually had to give up.

Lynn was somewhat moved.

"It's a long story, but the outcome is alright; you're able to see me today."

The truth about my background must not be revealed.

Grindelwald's reputation among wizards wasn't much better than Voldemort's; both were dark wizards, only his main activities weren't in England.

Seeing that Lynn didn't want to say more, Cedric and Ian didn't press the matter further and started chatting about some interesting things that happened at home during the summer vacation.
