Harry Potter: This senior is pretty strong

Chapter 66 The Crowded Train Carriage

"Come back~ Come back~"

Qin Yu hummed a tune he only remembered a few lines of, and walked happily out of the Gryffindor Tower toward the lakeside dock.

"Qin, what song are you singing? It sounds really nice." Elvis, panting, caught up with Qin Yu, pulling his heavy suitcase.

The latter, on the contrary, was quite relaxed, as the box in his hand was not heavy.

The reason is simple—Professor Swinton gave him the bag, which allowed him to put most of his things in it!

So, early this morning, an owl knocked on Qin Yu's dormitory window, dropped something down, and left.

That thing was none other than Professor Swinton's bag with the Spatial Expansion Charm. It was a valuable item, not something that could be made casually, and even if it were, it wouldn't be as effective as Professor Swinton's.

Qin Yu was overjoyed and thought that Professor Swinton was a trustworthy friend; he would actually give you anything you needed!

"Just tell me what you want next time!" That was the only sentence written on the attached note.

……

"The song... it's a song that expresses the joy of going home for vacation," Qin Yu said casually, then asked Elvis, "What are your plans for summer vacation?"

Upon hearing this, Elvis scratched his head and said shyly, "I don't have any plans. I'll probably just study my first-year books, especially the Potions textbook..."

Qin Yu knew that Elvis had almost failed his potions exam, which made the boy's eyes red when he found out his results.

There was no way around it; Elvis was timid and introverted, and he had an instinctive fear of Snape. During Potions class, he spent a lot of time worrying about making a mistake and getting scolded by Professor Snape.

How can you possibly learn well with this kind of attitude in class?

"You don't need to be afraid of Professor Snape. He's just cold on the surface, and at most he's a bit sharp-tongued, but he won't really do anything to you," Qin Yu reassured Elvis again.

“I, I know, once my crucible cracked and he even replaced it with a new one for me… But I’m still a little afraid of him, afraid that I won’t learn well…” Elvis stammered.

"Okay, you might be under a lot of pressure when you're with him. You should get used to it as you get used to it... Then you should study hard at home. If you have any questions, you can have your owl deliver a message to me." Qin Yu stopped trying to persuade him. This was something he had to change on his own.

"Really?" Elvis asked, his eyes shining.

"What's wrong with that? We're friends, isn't it normal for us to communicate with each other?" Qin Yu said with a smile.

“Yes, yes, I will write to you!” Elvis nodded vigorously.

Then he asked Qin Yu, "Qin, what are your plans for summer vacation?"

"Me?" Qin Yu was taken aback, then cleared his throat and said with a hint of arrogance, "I didn't actually make any arrangements; it was all arranged for me by others."

"All arranged? I wish I could have all that arranged too, but unfortunately I'm often home alone during holidays," Elvis said with a hint of envy.

Qin Yu patted him on the shoulder, unsure how to comfort him, after all, not everyone has a sister at home.

"Hurry up and get on the boat! Hurry up and get on the boat! There are a lot of people going home for summer vacation, be careful not to miss the train!" Hagrid shouted at the lakeside dock.

Upon hearing this, the students quickened their pace, jumped onto the small boats, and sailed with the fleet to the other side.

After Qin Yu and Elvis boarded the ship, they looked back at the receding Hogwarts Castle, said goodbye in their hearts, and looked forward to seeing the beautiful autumn of Hogwarts again when they returned.

……

The Hogwarts Express departed promptly at nine o'clock in the morning, fully loaded with students leaving the school.

Unlike the Christmas holidays, Qin Yu's private room was packed with people this time.

First up was Elvis, who sat next to Qin Yu with a satisfied expression. Because he had been following Qin Yu closely, he easily managed to grab a seat in the private room.

Then came George and Fred, the Weasley twins, who rushed in and quickly took over two spots.

Bock, Jimmy, and Wilson wanted to sit inside as well, but it was too crowded for seven people in one room, so they went to the side and kept coming over to visit. They stayed there for quite a while, which was no different from sitting there.

During this time, Cedric also came over and chatted with Qin Yu and the others for a while. Seeing that there was really no room left in the private room, he left with a helpless look on his face.

"I heard Charlie is going to Romania to study dragons after graduation?" Qin Yu asked the Weasley brothers.

“Well, that’s probably the thing he’s most interested in besides Quidditch,” George said with a shrug.

“However, I think he still most wants to join a professional Quidditch team, but that’s too difficult,” Fred said with a sigh.

This topic left everyone somewhat silent.

Just then, the train passed through a beautiful Muggle town, where a flock of plump sheep grazed on the grass. Everyone's attention was drawn to this scene, and for a moment, no one said a word.

……

Before arriving at the station, the students took off their wizard robes and changed into summer clothes. The boys wore simple shorts and short-sleeved shirts, while many of the girls wore pretty dresses. Of course, some dressed like boys, such as Moni Wanda.

Finally, the train stopped at platform 9¾ at King's Cross station.

Everyone got off the train, in groups of two or three, and went through the wall to enter the Muggle-world station. — Of course, going out in batches was to avoid attracting the attention of the Muggles.

"Bye-bye, Qin!"

See you at school, Qin!

"Looking forward to your performance next year, Qin!"

Many students passing by greeted Qin Yu. George and Fred, who were standing nearby, were incredibly envious of Qin Yu's popularity and vowed that they would definitely practice their Quidditch skills diligently during the summer vacation and amaze everyone when school started.

Soon, Qin Yu and his group arrived at the exit of the Muggle world, where many young wizards found their families who had come to pick them up.

George and Fred saw their mother Molly Weasley, who had come to pick them up, along with their younger brother Ron and sister Ginny.

"See you later, Qin!" George waved goodbye to Qin Yu.

"I'll miss you, Qin!" Fred hugged Qin Yu.

"Goodbye, I'll miss you both!" Qin Yu said goodbye to the two brothers.

Then, he waved to Mrs. Weasley, who was not far away, as a greeting.

After seeing George and Fred off, Qin Yu shrugged and pulled his suitcase forward.

Just then, a melodious voice, as sweet as a lark's, rang out:

"Qin!"

——Dimensional wall——

I caught a cold and had a headache all day, but I've just recovered.
