Dragon Roar Master at Hogwarts

Chapter 144: Riding the Hogwarts Express again



The rest of the summer vacation spent at the Burrow was a relatively stable and comfortable life.Although there are some incredible things everywhere for a Muggle family, they are nothing compared to the thrilling life in the Alps.

The only thing worth mentioning is that Ginny is obviously much more cheerful than before, at least in front of Dudley.On the one hand, it may be because Mrs. Weasley bought her a new robe, which reduced her pressure. On the other hand, it may be because Dudley stood up for her and humiliated Lucius, and swiped Ginny. Good impression.

Of course, one of the reasons why Dudley threw the books out of her cauldron was that he wanted to confirm whether there was Tom Riddle's diary in it.Although Dudley had secretly witnessed the transaction between Lucius and the hooded woman that day at the Malfoy manor, the possibility that Lucius only handed over the fake diary could not be ruled out.

The time soon came to September [-]st. After hurriedly moving their luggage to the trunk of Mr. Weasley's old-fashioned Ford, the group of people who were going to report to Hogwarts squeezed into the back seat of the Ford—— Although it is not appropriate to describe it as crowded, because as soon as they sit on it, the back row automatically expands to a spacious size.

Ginny looked very nervous about going to Hogwarts for the first time. She didn't even blush like she usually did when she saw Harry. She just pursed her lips and stared blankly ahead.

"Don't be afraid, Ginny. Normally, unless you commit something particularly serious, you won't be kicked home as soon as you enter school."

"Unless you get into serious trouble on the Hogwarts train, like a few of the dudes next to you."

The Weasley twins joked and joked with Ginny until their mother, Mrs. Weasley, gave them a nasty look.

"It's okay, honey." Mrs. Weasley patted Ginny's head lovingly, "Hogwarts is a very beautiful place. You will definitely find your good friends in Hogwarts."

Arthur started the engine, and with a roar, the old Ford slowly drove onto the road.Although Arthur always seemed to want the car to fly into the sky, he had to give up under the stern gaze of his wife.

Since there was no plot in the original work where Ginny forgot to take the diary, they successfully arrived at King's Cross Station on time and arrived in front of the magical platform nine and three-quarters.

"Harry and I will go over first," Dudley suggested. "We can also help Ginny carry her luggage."

Although he had met Dobby in advance, Dudley was still worried about the incident in the original work where Dobby blocked the door. Anyway, it would be safer to go there first.

Fortunately, my worries seemed to be unnecessary.Dudley and Harry successfully passed the platform and came to the other side where the red Hogwarts Express train was parked, which made him relieved.

Then, one after another, the Weasley family followed across the platform.After helping Ginny load her luggage onto the train, Fred and George first parted ways when they saw their friend Lee Jordan.And Percy left quickly, saying he was going to the prefects' box in front.

Dudley, Ron and Harry began to look for the vacant box, while Ginny followed them quietly without saying a word.

"Ginny must want to sit in the same box as us." Ron whispered to Harry, looking a little embarrassed. "We have a lot of brothers in our family, so Ginny has been growing up under the protection of her family and is not used to acting alone."

"There shouldn't be a problem, there doesn't seem to be a requirement to sit with people of the same grade." Harry responded in a low voice.

"But I don't think this is good." Ron looked at Ginny quietly and said in a lower voice, "In fact, we brothers made an appointment to put some pressure on her to accept the new life. After all, she has to grow up independently. , meeting new friends on the train is a very important opportunity - this is how I met you."

Even so, Ron, the tough girl, seemed to have never been able to muster up the courage to leave Ginny alone, and neither Dudley nor Harry could bear to be the bad guy.As a result, they walked back and forth through the carriage without being able to take a seat, and as a result, there were fewer and fewer free compartments.

"This is not the way to go." Dudley couldn't stand it anymore and said to Harry and Ron, "You go find a seat and sit down first. I'll take Ginny to their first-year box and wait until Ginny is settled. I’ll come find you again.”

Ron breathed a sigh of relief and secretly glanced at Ginny, who lowered her head and said nothing.Harry seemed to want to go with Dudley, but was stopped by Ron: "No, you have also seen what happens to Ginny when she is with you. If you go, Ginny will probably not dare to speak and become mute. ."

So Dudley said goodbye to them for the time being. Ginny originally wanted to follow Ron, but was gently stopped by Dudley: "They two have some things to be busy with, so they left first. I'll go look for them with you." Let’s have a private room.”

Ginny seemed to understand what they meant, she responded softly with a lonely face, and followed Dudley.

Dudley quietly looked at Ginny beside him with his peripheral vision, and began to understand why Tom Riddle's diary in the original work was so successful in controlling this little girl.

The Horcrux took advantage of Ginny's stress and worries to do evil. Although the Horcrux is not in Ginny's hands now, it does not mean that the little girl's worries no longer exist.

As the youngest child of the Weasley family, Ginny has always been cared for by her many brothers. Therefore, for her, her brothers are the most trustworthy people.

But the Weasley brothers also realized this, so in order to allow Ginny to grow up healthily, they deliberately acted alienated from her. The Weasley twins teased her earlier for this well-intentioned reason. In order to give Ginny a Face the pressure of the new environment independently.

In fact, they did this to Ron last year, and the effect was very successful.If Ron had been hanging out with the Weasley twins, he wouldn't have been able to muster the courage to share a box with Harry, and he had tempered his mentality by withstanding the pressure from his brother's teasing.

But from Ginny's point of view, it would be difficult to accept it. After all, the teasing and pressure came from her brother who once protected her, and she had no one to talk to.Moreover, the low self-esteem caused by the family being too poor and the ignorant feelings towards Harry further amplified the pressure on this little girl.

In the original work, Ginny's most difficult period was relieved by confiding in Tom Riddle's diary, and as a result, Voldemort's soul took advantage of it and was controlled - but now, Ginny was left to handle the pressure on her own.

At this time, they had arrived at the box where the first-year students were, but due to the previous delay, most of the boxes were already full.

"I see that you guys have been going back and forth several times. Are you looking for a vacant seat?" A light, dazed voice came from a box door that was only opened a crack next to it. "Of course, maybe you are just going back and forth." Walk around to scare away the bugs on the Hogwarts train?"
