"Filius, follow me to the Hogwarts Express. Minerva, you, Severus, and Pomona go to Hogsmeade village, and gather all the little wizards to Hogsmeade station."
Dumbledore began to make arrangements.
"Hogsmeade Station? Not taking them back to school?"
Professor McGonagall asked. In her opinion, since the outside is so dangerous, of course all the little wizards should be brought back to Hogwarts. After all, Hogwarts Castle is the safest place.
"First-year freshmen need to go through the entrance ceremony. This is what every little wizard at Hogwarts needs to go through. We cannot change this tradition."
Dumbledore said that this tradition has not changed since the establishment of Hogwarts, and young wizards need to go through the road that the four founders of Hogwarts have walked.
"Okay, then call Hagrid, who guides the freshmen at Hogwarts every year."
Professor McGonagall nodded.
However, when Professor McGonagall sent her Patronus—a sleek silver tabby cat—to summon Hagrid at his hut, there was no sign of him, leaving her with no choice but to abandon the attempt.
"Professor McGonagall! Professor McGonagall!"
Just when Professor McGonagall and his party came outside Hogwarts Castle, planning to apparate, Percy Weasley ran over while shouting.
"Mr. Weasley, what can you do?"
Professor McGonagall was not too surprised to see Percy, she had already learned that the little wizards had arrived early.
"Professor McGonagall, due to some accidents today, the Hogwarts Express arrived at Hogsmeade station ahead of schedule, and now many students have gone to Hogsmeade."
Percy was panting and talking intermittently, because he ran all the way here, and he looked quite tired.
"We are aware of this matter, Mr Weasley, thank you for informing us, and now we are going to deal with this matter."
"Mr. Weasley, you can rest in the castle first, or go to the school hospital to lie down for a while."
Professor McGonagall noted her satisfaction with Percy. Unlike the other young wizards who had rushed off to Hogsmeade like wild horses, he had the sense to inform the professors promptly.
"Yes, I see, Professor McGonagall."
Percy breathed a sigh of relief, now that Professor McGonagall knew about it, he didn't have to worry about it.
Professor McGonagall and the others quickly Apparated and left, because Apparition was forbidden inside Hogwarts Castle, so they could only perform it outside Hogwarts Castle.
Besides, this matter is very urgent, and they don't want to rush to Hogsmeade. Apparition is the fastest and most convenient way.
At the same time, Toby and his little wizards have started to play in Hogsmeade.
Hogsmeade Village is a pure wizarding village near Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It has a very long history. It is said that it was established at the same time as Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
According to Magical Historical Relics, a collection housed in the Hogwarts Library, Hogsmeade Village served as the headquarters for the Goblin Rebellion of 1612.
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry stipulates that only students in their third year and above can visit Hogsmeade on designated weekends, provided they have written permission from their guardian.
Hogsmeade is home to several fascinating shops, including Dervish and Banges, a magical equipment store known for selling repair tools, enchanted objects, and other wizarding supplies. Its inventory includes items like Sneakoscopes, Remembralls, and enchanted looking glasses.
The shop is located just off the main road of Hogsmeade Village.
"Look, this store even has magical items like Sneakoscopes and enchanted looking glasses!" someone exclaimed, pointing at the shop's vibrant display.
"Oh, speaking of Quidditch, which Quidditch team do you like?"
Toby and the others were strolling around the Davis and Bains store at the moment, looking at the store's collection of Quidditch equipment, and Ron and the others started talking about Quidditch.
They are all young wizards who have not yet entered school. The young wizards from wizarding families are very interested in Quidditch. As for the young wizards from Muggle and mixed-race families, they are also very curious about Quidditch.
"Toby, Jamie, do you like Quidditch?"
Harry couldn't help asking.
"Oh, we don't like it. Although this sport is popular in the wizarding world, we really don't like it."
Toby shook his head and said that the sport of Quidditch is that wizards ride broomsticks and fly in the sky while playing ball.
But he always feels that this kind of exercise is meaningless. Compared with flying in the sky on a broom, he prefers flying with a sword in oriental mythology, which is really cool.
Flying on a broom in the sky always feels so stupid, and I don't know which wizard invented it. Even a flying carpet is more attractive than a broom.
"Harry, we are going to visit other shops, will you stay here and listen to their Quidditch, or come with us?"
asked Toby.
"I'll stay here, I'm a little interested in Quidditch."
Harry said that although he was hearing about Quidditch for the first time, he became interested in the sport.
"It seems that you really inherited your father's genes. Your father was a Seeker for the Quidditch team of Hogwarts Gryffindor College. It seems that you should also inherit your father's talent."
Jamie said.
"My father?"
Harry was a little surprised.
"Yes, you'll find out when you go to Hogwarts. Your father was once a Quidditch champion."
Jamie nodded.
"Well, good luck Harry, we're going first!"
Toby said.
Although Harry still wanted to ask more about his father, seeing that Toby and Jamie had left, he still endured it, thinking that as long as he went to Hogwarts, he would find out sooner or later.
