Despite the shop's low profile, its items were of high quality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tommy traced the attackers to Borgin and Burkes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had sent three wizards to destroy this uninvited business threat, but they had failed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems my concern was justified. Tommy Shelby recruited three werewolf partners; it's time to put them to use.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the last recruitment, Tommy successfully brought in three werewolf friends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were all from the bottom tier, discriminated against by the wizarding world, and were grateful to John for providing a job.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's time to teach a lesson. Otherwise, after the awarding ceremony, these troubles will only increase.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John's eyes showed a fierce light. Knockturn Alley was full of dishonest people; they needed to be hurt to be deterred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Coincidentally, the full moon was coming soon; it was time to let the werewolves take action.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hopefully, this time, we can eliminate future troubles.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John snapped his fingers, and the letter burst into flames.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He watched expressionlessly as the letter turned to ashes. He instructed Basil to send a letter to Tommy, along with the protective charms and enchanted rings he had prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arming them to the teeth, he aimed to cripple Borgin and Burkes in one fell swoop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also wrote to Damocles, hoping he could instigate a major search of Knockturn Alley by the Ministry of Magic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the influence of the upcoming Merlin First Class Order and his pureblood status, Damocles could achieve this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing everything, John started a task similar to Lockhart's.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The difference was that Lockhart's correspondence was with fans, while John's was with alchemy experts and rune scholars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some potion masters, introduced by Damocles, had also become his pen pals and responded very positively to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maintaining these connections was also a job, and John wrote to each one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A thank-you letter from Barty Crouch?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last letter surprised John.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon opening it, he found it was from Barty Crouch Sr., Head of the Department of International Magical Cooperation, expressing his gratitude for Johnny Silverhand providing a good job for his former subordinate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This Director is quite sentimental.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tommy had once worked under Barty Crouch as an Auror, and Crouch had been deeply pained by his subordinate turning into a werewolf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now that he knew John had given Tommy a stable and good job, Barty Crouch Sr. personally wrote a letter of thanks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Barty Crouch also acknowledged John's sale of Wolfsbane Potion, expressing gratitude once more for John's contributions to the werewolf community in the wizarding world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He seems like someone worth getting to know better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John picked up a quill and wrote a reply to Barty Crouch Sr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Ding, magic upgrade successful, current magic level 4]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing his exercise with Neville by the Black Lake, John saw Neville sit down heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neville asked sincerely, \"John, why do we need to exercise our bodies if we're wizards?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only a healthy body can support a strong soul.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John kicked Neville, making him get up and continue sword practice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neville, in great distress, had no choice but to comply. After finishing their training, the two parted ways in the corridor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It started to rain, and John saw Luna wandering aimlessly barefoot, like a headless chicken, in the corridor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside her was Ginny Weasley, who unsurprisingly was sorted into Gryffindor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the little girl looked a bit haggard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Percy had mentioned before that his sister had caught a cold, which was likely the reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you looking for?\" John asked, seeing them searching for something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luna greeted John dreamily, \"John, it's good to see you. You didn't get caught in the rain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ginny Weasley, who knew of John and was good friends with Luna, said angrily, \"It was some Ravenclaw students. They hid Luna's shoes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They think it's a game,\" Luna added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's not a game!\" Ginny retorted, unable to accept that her good friend was being bullied. Especially after communicating with the person in the diary, she was even more afraid of losing this friend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, maybe I can help you find them,\" John said, noticing Ginny's agitation and comforting the two girls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a cat appeared from around the corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Mrs. Norris.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John approached and petted her head, speaking softly, \"Mrs. Norris, can you help me find Luna's shoes?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Norris glanced at Luna, then circled around as if trying to remember something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she turned and headed down another corridor, with John following her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scene surprised Ginny because she had heard about Filch's cat, who often reported to Filch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When they reached the fifth-floor corridor, Mrs. Norris sat down and meowed upward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John looked up and saw Luna's shoes hanging above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John took out his wand and used a spell to retrieve the shoes, then fed Mrs. Norris a cat treat he carried with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I need to find some time to groom your furr,\" he said, noticing her fur was matted again after some time without grooming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Mrs. Norris finished the treat and left, John said goodbye to the two girls as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you need any help, you can always come to me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that Luna didn't seem to be doing well in Ravenclaw, John left her with these words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, he arrived at the library and decided to go in. He had a note from Lockhart allowing him free access to the Restricted Section. To make things easier, he had Lockhart write him a dozen notes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Entering the Restricted Section, John searched for books on curses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Book of Spells, this might be useful,\" he said, picking it up and preparing to leave. As he passed by a shelf, he stopped in his tracks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at an empty spot, John thought, \"I remember there was a book here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he had come in during his first year, there had been a book titled*Secrets of the Darkest Arts*in that spot, but now it was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John found it odd but then noticed another book,*Moste Potente Potions*.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stopped and took that book as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under Madam Pince's death glare, John calmly presented two notes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Successfully taking both books, John headed straight for the Gryffindor's Chamber of Secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he came out again, it was already evening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had an extra wand in his hand—it was Ron's.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The process of making a wand takes longer than I expected.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wand was fourteen inches long, quite lengthy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On Monday during the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, Lockhart had already gotten used to being a hands-off instructor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After going over his textbook, the class moved on to practical exercises.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, it was John who took control of the situation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lockhart was the first professor in Hogwarts history to have two assistants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John felt responsible for his classmates and demonstrated how to quickly take down a Tibetan Snowman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After class, John handed Ron the new wand made with the old core.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I almost forgot I had another wand,\" Ron said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only then did he remember he had been using John's given wand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon receiving his new wand, he felt it fit perfectly in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione exclaimed, \"Oh Merlin! You really know how to make wands!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, did you think I was joking?\" John replied with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione felt a bit embarrassed; she had assumed John's craftsmanship would be rough, but the wand was very delicate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Great, now I can make Malfoy suffer!\" Ron said excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These days, Ron and Malfoy had constant friction, having exchanged curses at least three times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hello, John.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Percy walked by with his head held high, which made Ron very annoyed. \"You know Lockhart made him an assistant, and now he's even more full of himself.\" Ron muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry also noticed Percy had become more arrogant lately. Becoming an assistant in Defense Against the Dark Arts had increased Percy's authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn't that a good thing?\" John didn't understand why Ron was upset; his brother having more power seemed beneficial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying goodbye to the group, John headed to the dormitory to take Tom for a walk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he returned to the dormitory, he heard Tom growling fiercely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>John drew his wand and walked in to find a house-elf wearing a pillowcase, cornered by Tom and unable to fight back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dobby..?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>_____\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read 12 Chapters ahead at\u003C\u002Fp>",1459,"2026-06-06T11:45:53.361Z",1,"novelbin.me","bf278f85d6a1623c710601c0cab969dd7f80a1c4ca2a379e06b7405c4714e16a","hogwarts-john-wick-chapter-67","hogwarts-john-wick-chapter-65",577,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhogwarts-john-wick-cover.jpg"]
