  While Harry was struggling to move forward with his heavy suitcase in the crowded crowd, Wade had already found an empty compartment and sat down. While no one was around, he changed into his school robes in advance and took out Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them to start reading.

  In a month, Wade has read through all the books he bought. In terms of content, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is his favorite. Of course, this love may also be due to the author - the author of this book, Newt Scamander, is the protagonist of another Harry Potter film series. He has a deep love for all kinds of magical creatures and has a magic box that Wade envied very much.

  After a while, the cubicle door suddenly opened and a little brown-haired girl stood at the doorway, looked in, raised her chin and asked, "Excuse me, is there anyone else coming here?"

  Wade glanced at her rather conspicuous pair of front teeth and said, "No."

  "oh."

  The little girl dragged her suitcase in, sat down, raised her head and said, "Hello, I'm Hermione, Hermione Granger."

  Weed put the book down, held out his hand and said, "Weed Grey."

  "You're reading Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them? So you're a freshman this year? Me too! By the way, I've memorized all the content of this book. Of course, the same goes for other textbooks." Hermione spoke rapidly and with a little pride: "By the way, I also practiced a few simple spells, and they all worked. For example - [Lumospheric Flash]!"

  The tip of her wand lit up with a soft light.

  "Although I didn't memorize the textbook, but--" Wade also drew out his wand: "Lumos!"

  The two little light bulbs shone against each other, as if they were proof of their own kind. Hermione grinned and said softly with some yearning, "It's amazing, isn't it?"

  Vader nodded silently.

  Hermione suddenly remembered something and quickly explained, "Oh, I'm an ordinary person... I'm a Muggle-born, and no one in my family knows magic. This kind of trick should be commonplace to you, right?"

  Wade said: "No, my parents don't know magic either."

  "Then we can help each other at school." Hermione said happily: "I mean - children from wizarding families must have learned from their parents since childhood and mastered a lot of magic, right? I don't want to be the worst student."

  "Don't worry about that." Wade couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm sure there are not many people who can memorize the textbook. Maybe you are the only one. It's really amazing, Miss Granger."

  "Well, this... actually no... uh... I mean, some of the content is quite difficult, and there are some spells that I didn't dare try at home because the book said that there would be terrible consequences if the spells were read incorrectly." Hermione blushed and stammered.

  While she was embarrassed, the door of the compartment was pushed open again. Hermione breathed a sigh of relief and immediately looked towards the door.

  A round-faced boy stood hesitantly at the door and asked hesitantly, "Excuse me, can I sit here?"

  "Of course, please come in!" Hermione said enthusiastically first.

  The boy put the box away clumsily, sat down, and twisted his fingers awkwardly, as if he rarely interacted with others.

  Hermione took the initiative and said, "Hello. I'm Hermione Granger, he's Wedder Grey, we're both freshmen this year - what's your name?"

  "Neville," he said. "My name is Neville Longbottom. Uh, a freshman too."

  "Oh, are you from a non-magical family too?" Hermione asked curiously.

  Neville lowered his head: "No...my parents are both wizards."

  "Then you know a lot of magic?" Hermione said, "I only know a few simple spells like Luminescent and Repair, but I'm still unsure about the Petrification Charm. Should it be Petri-ficus To-ta-lus or Petrifi－cus Tota－－lus?"  

  Neville was confused: "Pe-Petri what?"

  Hermione blinked, as if she didn't understand what he was asking.

  Neville said with a sad face: "I...actually I haven't even mastered Lumos yet!"

  "...Oh." Hermione was a little disappointed, but also a little happy. She straightened her chest slightly and said, "Well, it doesn't matter. I can teach you - I mean - we can learn from each other..."

  Neville looked like he was about to cry.

  "Neville." Wade suddenly said, "What's moving in your pocket?"

  Neville looked down and said, "Ah, it's my pet. It always likes to run around."

  He pulled out a black-gray toad from his pocket, held it in his palm and happily introduced it to the two of them: "Look, it's called Lefu."

  Wade and Hermione leaned back at the same time, trying to distance themselves from the ugly creature without being noticed by Neville.

  The short and fat toad stretched his legs and jumped out of Neville's hand. It happened that Neville had not closed the door of the compartment when he came in, so Mr. Radford ran to freedom without hesitation and disappeared in two bounces.

  Neville looked at his empty palm for two seconds and screamed, "Live!"

  He chased after him, and Vader heard the boy accidentally bump into a carriage.

  The two people in the compartment looked at each other.

  Hermione whispered, "Although it's written on the notice...I originally thought no one would keep a toad as a pet!"

  Wade nodded in agreement. He knew that some golden, pink, or emerald green toads were indeed pretty, but how could anyone really like the gray, pimpled toad?

  Neville just genuinely loved his Toad.

  After a long time, the boy came back wiping his tears and said sobbingly: "I didn't find it - everyone said they didn't see it -"

  Wade advised him: "The train is closed. Wait until you get off the train and look for it. You will definitely find it." Surely no one would steal a toad.

  Neville was not comforted, and his tears were still falling.

  Seeing that he was really sad, Hermione sighed helplessly, stood up and said, "I'll go with you to find it."

  She looked at Vader questioningly, and Vader shook his head.

  After Hermione and Neville left, the noisy box immediately became quiet. Wade looked out the window and saw the rolling hills slowly moving behind him.

  He knew that if he went with Hermione to look for the toads, he would meet Harry and Ron, and it would be easy for eleven-year-olds to become friends. In this way, the iron triangle would become a foursome.

  But after thinking it over for a long time, Wade still felt that there was no need for him to cling to the protagonist, because what attracted him was not the adventure story of an elementary school student fighting against a big devil, which was just a joke this year. Magic itself was interesting enough.
