He thought for a moment, could they have missed the train?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe they just missed the train,\" he suggested. \"It's no big deal. They can write a letter to the school, and someone will come to get them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Biting the head of the chocolate frog, John turned to Neville.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neville had been a little depressed since he visited his parents during the holidays.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Neville, are you okay?\" John asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neville was stunned for a moment and nodded, \"I'm fine, John.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good to hear. Want some toffee?\" John offered, shoving some into Neville's hand. He thought about Neville's parents, whose condition was caused by a curse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'The Unforgivable Curse.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He thought about the time he had used the Cruciatus Curse and decided it was best to avoid using it in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his thoughts drifted, John gazed out the window and saw a small black dot approaching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He blinked, rubbed his eyes, and then looked again to confirm what he was seeing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A familiar flying car was speeding alongside the Hogwarts Express. Screams echoed from inside the vehicle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Wick, you're flying in the wrong direction!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not that, that's a nosedive!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John watched in disbelief as the flying car plummeted past the train and disappeared under a bridge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rubbed his eyes, as if he was doubting what he saw and confirming it again. \"I think I just saw my dad.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he wasn't mistaken, the car had three occupants: Harry, Ron, and his own father, Watson Wick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a stiff expression, John realized his father had boldly taken the flying car and was now in a high-speed chase alongside the train.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he really think this was the same as driving a car?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can only pray that Harry and Ron come out of this in one piece after being with the Canary Wharf Car God...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John clasped his hands together in prayer, leaving Hermione confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What did you just see?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They are with the Canary Wharf Car God? It means they are fine, right?\" Neville asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, I forgot to tell you that there are more boats than cars there,\" John added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What? And what was that screme just now?\" Seeing Hermione's unease, John thoughtfully decided to forget the incident he had just witnessed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, it was nothing Hermione, don't worry. Harry and Ron will be fine.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Probably'John added silently in his heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, John.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione realized she might be overreacting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry and Ron regretted their decision. Why did they trust this seemingly reliable adult?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"John, John!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron was so scared that he frantically called John's name. He felt that only John could save them and make this crazy uncle stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry had hit his head on the car roof for the tenth time. The car's material was incredibly durable, not even denting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Harry's head might give out sooner...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In contrast to the two boys, Watson was exhilarated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With one hand on the steering wheel, he effortlessly pushed the car's speed to 200 mph.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Canary Wharf car god forever!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"\"AHHH!\"\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a cheer, mixed with two helpless screams, they overshot their destination again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second years didn't enter Hogwarts through the Black Lake but through a different route.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the muddy path outside Hogsmeade Station, a line of horseless carriages waited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking down the road, there were at least a hundred carriages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The absence of horses made the carriages seem peculiar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What pulls these carriages?\" Hermione asked curiously, sitting in the same carriage as John.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's a Thestral, a magical creature,\" John said, staring at the Thestral in front of the carriage. He remembered that this creature could only be seen by those who had witnessed death firsthand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Could it be because of Quirrell?' he wondered, recalling how he had watched Quirrell's body being taken over by Voldemort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A carriage could seat four people. After Neville got on, a blonde girl quickly took a seat before Ernie Macmillan could.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hi, John, long time no see,\" Daphne said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite trying to appear casual, her rush to get on the carriage revealed her true intention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John smiled back at her. Despite being in the same house, he didn't interact much with other Slytherins.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from Malfoy and his two cronies, the person he talked to the most was Daphne, though even that wasn't much, totaling less than ten sentences.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione, seeing Daphne, immediately felt a sense of natural rivalry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Women's intuition can be unreasonable like that. Hermione glared at Daphne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In response, Daphne haughtily flipped her hair, her blonde locks shimmering like silk in the night.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neville felt the air grow colder, wondering if it was because it was nighttime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The inside of the carriage was dark, with a faint smell of mildew and straw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once all the students had boarded, the hundred carriages lined up in a row and made their way along the muddy path towards Hogwarts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Thestral-drawn carriages moved steadily towards the castle, and as they neared the main gate, John saw the winged boars flanking the entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering the main gate, the carriages traveled up the slope and finally stopped near the stone steps leading to the oak front doors of Hogwarts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The students disembarked there and headed into the Great Hall. Soon after, the first-year students, brought by the boats, also entered the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione still hadn't seen Harry or Ron, and with John seated at the Slytherin table, she felt even more uneasy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the Slytherin table, Malfoy had initially intended to sit next to John, but Daphne quickly claimed the seat beside John.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's my seat!\" Malfoy protested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daphne gave him a dismissive glance, clearly indicating, \"Move along.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ehm* Perhaps a different seat would offer a better view,\" Malfoy said, clearing his throat. Considering Daphne's ancient pure-blood lineage, which matched his own, he swore it was his gentlemanly nature prompting him to yield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Malfoy then took a seat opposite John. John remarked, \"Draco, you've grown taller.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really? I think so too. How much taller do you think I've gotten?\" Malfoy asked eagerly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Talking about this made Malfoy genuinely happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, his height had never been enough to project the presence he desired.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He always felt that if he had John's height, he could easily overpower the annoying scar-headed Potter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John held his hand up to show a significant amount, then reconsidered and adjusted it to the width of two fingers. \"About this much.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the way, John had also grown taller, about the same two-finger width.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Malfoy was still very pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He excitedly shared his grand plan for the term with John.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My father promised to donate a batch of Nimbus 2001s to the team. Once I become the Seeker, we'll definitely crush Potter.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unbelievable wealth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Malfoy's move to directly double down on his investment had turned the Slytherin team into the new lords of the pitch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What surprised John even more was how adeptly Malfoy played the system with this blatant backdoor move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think with your skills, there's no need to use backdoor tactics in your second year.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be fair, Malfoy was quite good at flying. While not on par with Harry, he was among the best of the other students.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John's compliment pleased Malfoy immensely. He felt the same way, though Mr. Malfoy didn't agree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Sorting Ceremony began, and John immediately spotted Ginny Weasley. Her red hair was just too noticeable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Snape was nowhere to be found, and John guessed he was out looking for Harry and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, besides Harry, who else could make Professor Snape act personally?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John soon got his answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Professor Snape stormed into the Great Hall with a dark expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"John Wick, come with me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even from a table's length away, Malfoy could feel the oppressive aura emanating from their head of house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn't help but ask quietly, \"What did you do? I've never seen Professor Snape this angry. Don't get us in trouble and lose points.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John thought for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn't done anything wrong. He'd been following the rules.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No idea, but I have to go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Daphne's worried gaze, John left the Great Hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was taken to Snape's office, a place filled with numerous jars and bottles, containing either valuable potion ingredients or parts cut from various creatures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There, John saw his own father.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Oh..'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alright, now he understood why Professor Snape was furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Other people's sons cause trouble for their fathers, but in his case, it was the father causing trouble for the son.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John couldn't help but facepalm. Seeing the murderous look in Professor Snape's eyes, he thought there might still be a chance to salvage the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>_______\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read 12 Chapters ahead of SH at\u003C\u002Fp>",1490,"2026-06-06T11:45:53.361Z",1,"novelbin.me","aa629f04b8a63caf31b780caf4f56fa7a823ca8b878bdceb958148fd74ea18cc","hogwarts-john-wick-chapter-52","hogwarts-john-wick-chapter-400",577,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhogwarts-john-wick-cover.jpg"]
