Sometimes he felt escaping Privet Drive had been like a dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“En—dear child, I’m so glad to see you,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Weasley turned and saw En; her eyebrows shot up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come along, my dear children, let’s go get some Galleons.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the first time, she said the words “get Galleons” with real confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She held Harry by the left hand and En by the right, and surged into the crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Ron, feeling “neglected,” shrugged and said to Hermione and Jia Jia Siting:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mom’s always nicer to outsiders. Though it’s strange—I’ve never seen them this eager to visit the vaults.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>En had been pulled away; Mrs. Weasley always showed him unusual warmth, peppering him with questions about his summer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Weasley just smiled warmly, nodding along as usual—until he spotted Hermione’s parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stood awkwardly beside the counter that stretched across the entire marble hall, waiting for Hermione to return and introduce them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah, I know—you’re Mr. and Mrs. Granger! You’re Muggles!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Weasley said cheerfully,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We must have a drink! What’s that you’re holding? Oh, you’re exchanging Muggle money. Mo Li, look!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed excitedly at the ten-pound note in Mr. Granger’s hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, several goblins appeared, each leading different wizards to their respective vaults. En and the others would have to separate for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Weasleys left with Harry; Hermione hurried off to Making Guide the Grangers through exchanging Galleons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That left only En and Jia Jia Siting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Together, En?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Jia Siting said—he seemed to be here alone to withdraw money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sure.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>En didn’t refuse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The goblin-driven carts raced along miniature iron tracks, slicing through the bank’s underground tunnels to reach various vault\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After entering a vault, Justin’s gold again flashed before En’s eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All manner of needed and unneeded materials lined the shelves; pile upon pile of Jin Jin Jialong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My father didn’t approve of the Wizarding World, nor did my mother. But fortunately, they both supported me,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Justin said with a smile, his collar always crisp—ironed by Mrs. Weasley herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>En turned to glance at Justin—was all that in his trunk just a fraction of it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He remembered there was a limit to how many Jin Jin Jialong one could exchange for pounds—that meant they used gold or jewels…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, he still couldn’t imagine the world of the rich.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When En went to withdraw money from his own vault, Justin’s mouth could’ve held a goose egg.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His sharp insight allowed him to estimate the number of Jin Jin Jialong—and that was precisely why he was so stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did they rob Gringotts? Maybe not—that might’ve been too slow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was at this moment that Justin slowly realized the earning power of a top-rank Alchemist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving Gringotts, the group reunited and headed straight for Flourish and Blotts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I wonder how Mom and Dad managed to get money for our school supplies this year,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron still couldn’t believe it,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Besides a few old books filled with useful notes, we’ve got five full sets of Lockhart’s books! And Ginny’s robes and wand are all taken care of…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t Mr. Weasley employed at the Ministry of Magic?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry was puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Harry, you don’t understand—the Ministry of Magic isn’t a charity.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron whispered. Hermione and Justin were listening curiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon they were astonished to find a huge crowd gathered outside the bookstore, all eager to get in. Above the upper windows hung a large banner:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【The Sage’s Mentor? Exclusive Interview with Master Flora Olivia Taila】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Below it, a smaller banner read:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Gilderoy Lockhart signs his autobiography;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Wizard in Me”;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today, 12:30–4:30 PM】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Sage’s Mentor? I’ve never heard this news before?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione said blankly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Maybe because none of us live in the Wizarding World?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Justin smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Flourish and Blotts banner had been up for a while—every newspaper had already been snatched up. Occasionally, a wizard would sigh contentedly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That Alchemical Sage is so young—and he’s even a student at Hogwarts! Good heavens, I graduated too early.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A young witch whispered to the shy wizard beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Y-yes, but… we actually graduated five years ago.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wizard beside her, after holding it in for a long time, finally blurted this out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The witch shot him a furious look and stormed off; only then did he realize, face falling, and scramble after her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scene made Hermione feel as if she’d lived it herself:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What an idiot.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Justin agreed, then noticed Harry and Ron looked somewhat confused.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You two too!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione snapped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But soon, Hermione’s attention was drawn to Gilderoy Lockhart—the bookstore was surrounded by witches just like her, all captivated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet most of the crowd seemed to be witches of Mrs. Weasley’s age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A weary-looking wizard stood at the door and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ladies, please be quiet… don’t push… watch out for the books…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>En was always surrounded in the center, slipping through the crowd with everyone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A winding queue stretched from the entrance all the way to the back of the bookstore, where Gilderoy Lockhart was signing books.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each of them grabbed a copy of “Breaking Up with a Ghost,” then slipped over to where the Weasleys and Grangers were waiting in line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Oh, you’re finally here—perfect.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mrs. Weasley said. She was breathing heavily, constantly patting her hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even though we didn’t get the newspaper, we’ll see Mr. Lockhart soon…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, they caught sight of Gilderoy Lockhart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sat behind a table, surrounded by his own massive portraits—each face winking at the crowd, flashing blindingly white teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The real Lockhart wore a long robe the color of forget-me-nots, matching his blue eyes perfectly. His pointed wizard hat was tilted playfully atop his wavy golden hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, ladies and gentlemen, you won’t regret this trip—today’s two big events both involve me—”\u003C\u002Fp>",1017,"2026-06-19T10:00:41.888Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","448fa352a2d03280e08854d64457ec77441f5ce3fb4c1b631161b5a87b0bebd0","hogwarts-learning-panel-chapter-279","hogwarts-learning-panel-chapter-277",526,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhogwarts-learning-panel-cover.jpg"]
