Hogwarts: Me? Fight Voldemort?

Mainland Bar sells alcohol, but like Leaky Cauldron, it also serves many other functions, including not only drinking but also eating and lodging.
Currently, bars in mainland China are not very well-known in the underground world, so there are not many customers in the bars.
Not many doesn't mean there aren't any.
When Jimmy arrived at the private room on the first floor, he noticed someone watching him as he passed through the lobby.
When I turned my head, I saw a short, fat wizard dressed in a sleazy style cutting a steak.
There was another person sitting opposite him, dressed in a more standard dark wizard's attire, completely shrouded in a dark wizard's robe with his back to them.
The two of them were definitely spying on them. Jimmy glanced at them twice and then stopped paying attention.
Once inside the private room, Greymarques explained sensibly, "The one who showed up earlier is called Mundungus Fletcher, and the other is called Ira Duke. They both became members of the Continental Bar through an application process, and they're here to gather information."
"Mundungus?"
Jimmy remembered this person, one of the original members of the Order of the Phoenix, a criminal who usually walked the gray area, cowardly and selfish by nature, but loyal to Dumbledore.
The reason Dumbledore was able to intimidate the wizarding world with his remaining reputation was because he had accumulated an uncountable network of connections over a hundred years.
Sometimes, without him even having to give a direct order, those who were kind to Dumbledore would do things for him on their own initiative.
Even two years later, when Cornelius Fudge had clearly become an enemy of Dumbledore, most of the Wizengamori members would still cast their important vote for Dumbledore.
Rats in the gutter can never amount to anything. Dumbledore, who defeated the Dark Lord twice, has unparalleled prestige in the wizarding world. If he hadn't died, the wizarding world would have been much less likely to descend into chaos.
Jimmy said, "We can try to gather some information from him, but we need to prevent him from stealing."
Mundungus was merely one of Dumbledore's informants.
So clumsy that even if they knew, they wouldn't do anything to him.
Chapter 222 The Crazy Party
After finishing lunch, Jimmy and Hermione linked arms and returned from FlooNet to the first Continental Bar that did not cater to dark wizards.
The bar was bustling at midday. The newly recruited staff were all recent Hogwarts graduates, some of whom were still in touch with their juniors at the school.
Jimmy and Hermione stepped out of the fireplace and heard a chorus of cheers.
"Drink! Drink! Drink!" *N.
Before they even left the lounge, Jimmy and Hermione smelled a strong odor of alcohol and immediately had a bad feeling.
As soon as they stepped out of the lounge, everything went black.
In the center of the hall, Ron, who was only wearing his underwear, stood on a square table in a dead corner, holding four bottles of wine in his hands and tilting his head back to pour them into his mouth.
The crowd around them cheered wildly, and some people got drunk and started taking off their shirts like Ron, waving them like flags.
There were quite a few girls in the crowd, all screaming at Ron on the table; and a number of people were lying on the ground not far away.
Half of the four bottles of wine went into Ron's stomach, and the other half was poured on himself. When the empty bottles, not a drop left, were turned upside down to be displayed, the noise in the hall reached its peak.
The people around them were all chanting wildly, "Weasley is our king! Weasley is our king!"
Ron, who was almost completely drunk, raised his hands and screamed along with the others.
Lavender was so excited that he climbed onto the table, his face flushed, and hugged Ron's neck, pressing himself against him.
This scene elicited even louder screams from the surrounding crowd. George and Fred laughed and fired the confetti cannons they had just bought at the Digestive Store, and colorful rain immediately began to fall inside the bar.
The quirky Sisters band's music was blaring from the speakers in the corner, and everyone was cheering like crazy.
Jimmy and Hermione stared in disbelief at the chaotic scene, both having the same thought: Oh no!
"Pavati! Pavati!" Jimmy, with his sharp eyes, spotted Pavati, who was also cheering and screaming, at the edge of the crowd. He immediately ran over, pulled her out, and demanded, "What's going on? Have they gone mad?"
Hermione followed Jimmy, and as she approached Parvati, she smelled a strong odor of alcohol. She immediately covered her nose and exclaimed in disbelief, "You've all been drinking?! My God..."
Putting aside how strict the restrictions on minors drinking alcohol in the UK are, just imagine what Professor McGonagall would think if she saw a group of drunkards when they returned to the castle at night.
Hermione changed her hand from covering her nose to covering her forehead, and her pupils trembled uncontrollably. She couldn't imagine how interesting Professor McGonagall's expression would be after seeing these people.
The alcohol had seeped into their bloodstream, and the smell spread from the inside out, making it impossible to hide.
Moreover, they would search personal belongings upon their return, and Filch would be accompanied by Mrs. Lorris, whose cat has an extremely keen sense of smell...
In short, they're finished!
Seeing Jimmy and Hermione, Parvati's mind cleared up a little. After a moment of stunned silence, she looked back at the students who were still partying, and the rosy cheeks from her drunkenness were instantly replaced by a deathly pale look of terror.
She let out a short scream, but it was barely noticeable among the group of drunken people.
"Didn't I make a plan for you?" Jimmy's expression hardened. He knew he couldn't escape a scolding this time. Now he just wanted to know how Parvati had messed up the plan he had made.
Terrified and incoherent, Parvati stammered out a rough account of what had happened.
In the morning, after entering Hogsmeade, Ron and Lavender's first stop was Elegant Wizarding Clothing Store.
Parvati followed the two and, as instructed, bribed the shop assistants to divert customers, giving the two a chance to be alone.
As they tried on outfit after outfit, they found each other increasingly pleasing to the eye. With the unintentional help of passersby, they inevitably bumped into each other, and before long, they ended up in the same fitting room.
Just then, two people walked out of the fitting room and said in a strange tone that they thought they saw a man and a woman enter the fitting room.
Ron and Lavender were afraid that someone from outside would come in and cause some misunderstanding, so they pretended that only Lavender was inside.
The shop assistants then played the good guys, covering for Ron and Lavender, letting them stay in the fitting room for a full ten minutes, thus creating a suspension bridge effect.
At the Elegant Wizard Clothing Shop, Parvati always kept Jimmy's plan in mind and followed the steps of the plan.
After Ron and Lavender, blushing, hurriedly selected two outfits each and left the Elegant Wizarding Clothing Store, the unexpected began...
Ron and Lavender first ran into George and Fred, who had just finished shopping at the joke shop, and were chased around and teased by the two, ruining the pleasant atmosphere.
Then they encountered a group of Slytherins, and the mean-spirited Pansy Parkinson, along with two of Malfoy's former henchmen, came up to mock Lavender.
Pansy looked at Lavender with intense jealousy in her eyes, because Ron was a pureblood, and it was true that fitness was a form of cosmetic surgery for men.
Ron isn't that bad now, and he's actually quite strong...
Pansy Parkinson nearly made Lavender cry, then Ron stood up for Lavender, and the two were on the verge of a fight.
Because George and Fred were nearby, the two sides did not fight.
Ron and Lavender didn't go to Lady Patif's Tea House; instead, they went to the Continental Bar, dejected, with their bill in tow.
The bar was bustling with activity; many people were drinking, chatting, and playing cards.
Jimmy had instructed that Ron and Lavender be given a private room, but the two, who had inexplicably gotten into a conflict with the Slytherins on the way, were not in the mood for a private room.
On the contrary, Ron and Lavender preferred the lively atmosphere of the lobby, and Pansy Parkinson also came to the bar lobby.
With her plans in disarray, Parvati couldn't force Ron and Lavender into the private room, so unsure of what to do, she had no choice but to move on to the next step.
drink wine!
Hoping that alcohol could salvage the precarious atmosphere, Ron got even more drunk and said a few things about Slytherin, who retorted without backing down.
For some reason, Gryffindor and Slytherin decided to settle their differences by drinking.
From this point on, the tone completely shifts, and the students from the two already opposing academies become enraged.
Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students were still stirring things up, trying to get them to have a drinking contest.
Then some people might ask, "So the staff just let them do whatever they want, ordering alcohol whenever they want?"
Isn't it a coincidence that the clerk in charge of the wine cabinet was recruited from Gryffindor graduates!
Since Jimmy had previously instructed him to serve Ron some drinks and put the cost on the tab, he brought out the drinks for Ron to enjoy.
As they drank, other people inexplicably found themselves with drinks in their hands. They tasted the mediocre craft beer and drank until their faces were flushed.
Ultimately, the Slytherin members succumbed to the alcohol and collapsed first. Ron, relying on his enhanced physique, drank one of his enemies under the influence, then jumped onto the table like a madman to enjoy his victorious drinking and challenge his own limits.
Chapter 223 Jimmy's Secret Lesson
The people in the bar were still shouting and laughing. In the joyful atmosphere, everyone was restless, especially Ron and Lavender, who were passionately kissing on the table.
Only Jimmy, Hermione, and Parvati, who were still relatively lucid, noticed that the temperature around them was dropping.
"Do you feel cold?" Hermione wasn't very sensitive to this change; she could only sense a drop in temperature through her body.
Parvati opened his mouth and said, "I feel... eh?"
The white mist coming out of her mouth stunned her for a moment. At the end of October, the temperature was usually very cold, but inside the warm building, it was impossible for it to be so cold that she could exhale white mist.
Jimmy, seemingly lost in thought, gritted his teeth, pulled out his wand, turned off the music playing, and jumped onto another table, yelling, "Stop it all!"
A booming voice struck everyone's eardrums, and everyone stopped celebrating.
Ron and Lavender stopped their wet kiss, their faces flushed, and the sound startled several drunken Slytherins awake.
"Now, everyone stay where you are until I say you can leave!"
Seeing that he had intimidated everyone present, Jimmy jumped off the table and walked towards the shop's main entrance.
Hermione and Parvati exchanged a glance, then pushed their way through the crowd and followed Jimmy out, where they saw a dark wall.
The young wizards, peeking through the glass windows at the dark figure inside the shop, screamed in terror and scurried haphazardly deeper into the shop.
Dementors!
A huge horde of Dementors!
The swarms of Dementors were like voyeurs peering through the window, watching the little wizard inside the shop and shamelessly displaying their greed.
Jimmy walked through the crowd to the door, waved his wand, and the door opened automatically.
The Dementors, already filled with greed, rushed in eagerly, only to be met with a cloud of dry, powdery white mist covering their faces.
Jimmy wasn't very skilled with his Patronus Charm, but his Annihilation Charm had been improved many times and could almost completely counter any spell or magical life form, whether it was a ghost, a Peeves, or a Dementor in front of him, all of them would trigger the Annihilation Charm's effect.
Dementors are silent, but everyone can hear them cursing and howling in pain.
"Get out! Get out! Get out!" Jimmy chased away all the Dementors surrounding the shop as if he were putting out a fire with a fire extinguisher.
Dementors are quite intelligent. Although the little wizard's happy mood is tempting, they can't get any food when Jimmy is around.
With Cornelius Fudge's orders, the Dementors, unable to succeed, could only slink away.
Back at the shop, Jimmy said nothing, but instead severely deducted a year's worth of bonuses from the Gryffindor student.
