Chapter 470: Hogwarts Learning Panel Chapter 198

"Hmm."

Jia Siting nodded; for the young wizards of the Hope Cottage, he had never had anything to hide.

"You've been hiding it from us for so long!"

Xiang Hemin's anger and shock came together.

"Is it possible that you didn't ask, and I did ask."

Luo En said in a low voice from the side.

"Luo En, not everyone is like you, asking others about such important things so casually!"

Xiang Hemin flushed red.

"Maybe you're right, keeping secrets is too hard, next time I won't ask anymore."

Luo En paused for a few seconds, then quickly looked mournful, appearing somewhat pitiful.

Xiang Hemin was both annoyed and amused by Luo En's unexpected admission.

And Harry and Jin Ni were already stunned; they realized belatedly that something incredible had been said.

"So..."

Harry muttered to himself.

And Jin Ni had originally been confused and didn't understand, but felt it was impressive. But then she seemed to remember something and took a copy of the "Daily Prophet" out of her small bag.

After carefully comparing, she confirmed the identity of that wizard—it was exactly the manager of the mysterious Shop 77, the Fairy Tale Workshop.

"You are that Mr. Hermes who returned with glory!"

Jin Ni couldn't help but exclaim.

"Oh, surprised? Not a vampire, werewolf, or something?"

Luo En said habitually, then realized—

How did Jin Ni come with them?

At this time, the people of Hope Cottage realized that this young witch had slipped in among them; her red hair, unique to the Wei Silai family, was very conspicuous, and after being discovered, she was now blushing.

No matter how slow Luo En was, he sensed the atmosphere was wrong; they were partners who had experienced many dangers and difficulties and had come to trust and rely on each other, but Jin Ni was not.

He quietly blocked Jin Ni, hearing a voice that seemed to be floating over.

"It's okay."

Jia Siting said.

"Oh—"

Jia Siting looked at Jin Ni, thoughtful.

"You decide who should know."

Xiang Hemin raised her chin.

"I, I'm sorry."

Jin Ni realized—she shouldn't have come here.

"It's okay."

Jia Siting said gently.

He saw that notebook in Jin Ni's bag.

It seemed the plot's progress hadn't changed in the slightest; Tom's notebook had already reached Jin Ni's hands, and the story of the Chamber of Secrets was about to unfold...

He had to be quick; although the original work didn't say whether Jin Ni left any aftereffects after opening her soul to Tom Riddle—Jia Siting was more inclined to think not. But for such an evil, accident-prone thing as a Horcrux, it was still better to solve it as early as possible.

As for the solution, he could obtain the raw materials for solving the Horcrux when making cookies.

Jin Ni, who had inexplicably gained trust, pursed her lips and stood cautiously at the very edge of the young wizards, which made Xiang Hemin, who had just reacted, soften her expression.

"I think you saw Jin Ni a long time ago, right, Jia Siting?"

Xiang Hemin walked to Jin Ni's side and winked at Jia Siting.

"Hmm."

Jia Siting replied.

"Look—Jia Siting never does the wrong thing, but don't tell anyone—"

After Xiang Hemin finished speaking, Jin Ni nodded quickly. Her behavior thus changed from eavesdropping on others' conversations to being tacitly allowed to know.

But... she stole two glances at Jia Siting cautiously; she didn't understand why this Mr. Green trusted her so much.

The long cobblestone street of Diagon Alley was filled with the most tempting wizard shops in the world, and the young wizards wove through the crowd, purchasing all the items they needed.

Various customers walked past them: a strange-looking little witch from the countryside, just out to buy things;

A frail-looking wizard, debating the latest article in "Transfiguration Today"; unkempt wizards; noisy gnomes...

Even though Xiang Hemin and Jia Siting had come several times, they were still attracted by the wonder of this commercial street.

So they bought six large strawberry peanut butter ice creams, eating them comfortably while strolling through the alley, browsing the dazzling shop windows.

At dusk, a chubby figure rolled out of the Diagon Alley fireplace.

"Neville! Why are you only coming now?"

Xiang Hemin said.

"After I ranked seventh in grades, Great-Uncle Algie sent me a biting top hat yesterday as encouragement..."

Neville touched his thinning hair and red, swollen nose, tears already flowing,

"Great-Aunt Enie dug out 'nose-biting beans' from the attic, Great-Uncle Harfang gave me a knee-hitting umbrella..."

After hearing his words, everyone felt it was already very difficult for him to have reached Diagon Alley.

"Fred and George sometimes put spiders in my room too."

Luo En patted his shoulder, expressing deep sympathy.

Neville wept silently, but soon he was too scared to move by a black-robed wizard.

"Go—"

Professor Professor Sineipu's cold gaze swept over the group of young wizards, finally landing only on Jia Siting.

"See you at Hogwarts."

Jia Siting said goodbye softly and followed Professor Professor Professor Sineipu.

"Do you have the feeling that Professor Professor Professor Sineipu doesn't seem that scary anymore?"

Xiang Hemin said with some surprise.

"Does he?"

Luo En scratched his head, looking like he didn't quite believe it.

……

The night at Hogwarts was quiet.

Jia Siting held something like a stone slab, on which wisps of mist had already appeared, which didn't seem any different from what Jia Siting had seen in his dream.

The empty talisman itself didn't have much danger, but if its danger didn't lie in the empty talisman itself, then it could only be when it was used.

Jia Siting read "Simple Introduction to Empty Talismans" again; when the moonlight was bright to a certain degree, wisps of mist also entangled Jia Siting.

This was his first time using an empty talisman, this soul holy relic that only existed in Uagadou.

A long time passed, perhaps there was no time at all,

Jia Siting only had a hazy consciousness; he realized he definitely existed, definitely wasn't just in a state of thought detached from his body, because he was lying, definitely lying, on the surface of something. Therefore he had a sense of touch, and the thing beneath him also existed.

Right now, he was perhaps in a soul state...

He looked at his arm; it was clearly not an arm, but a black cat's paw with a white base.

He was lying in bright mist, but it was different from the mist he had seen in reality. It wasn't that the surrounding scenery was shrouded in cloud-like steam, but that this cloud-like steam hadn't yet formed the surrounding scenery.

The ground he was lying on seemed to be white, neither hot nor cold, just a kind of existence, a flat, empty thing.

Just a few minutes later, he heard the panel ringing:

【You practiced soul transformation once at the standard of an adept in the Master realm, Master-level proficiency +10】

This was his first time as an adept, just because he had stayed here for a while.

The black cat's emerald eyes saw white mist surging, in which some bizarre scenes appeared, and it quickly jumped to avoid them.

It traveled through the empty world, and as it walked, some mist drifting out from its own body soon appeared beside it.

This time the black cat saw clearly; some of these mists looked like a combination of a cat and a cheetah, some had wings...

When it observed intently, it found its consciousness starting to become muddled, as if it were a precursor to returning.

At this moment, a huge black claw rested on its body; the black cat shook its head and looked up, seeing a majestic black panther.

The black panther spoke in human language:

"Finally found you, cute child, look, how gifted you are in Alchemy and Transfiguration magic... The Supreme God Katunda doesn't care about the trivial matters of the human world, which is why you ended up in the wrong place.

Return to Uganda, my dear child, Uagadou has waited for you too long."

Jia Siting couldn't speak; he looked at this black panther in confusion.

"Forgot to introduce myself, I am the current headmaster of Uagadou, I have come to take you home, child."

The black panther circled the black cat, its large tail occasionally brushing against the edge of the black cat's fur.

The black cat was both curious about how this headmaster could forcibly keep it, and curious about how it could speak human language.

It became slightly anxious, and then heard a loud cat meow.

"The Supreme God is above, your eldest son is finally returning to his glorious homeland—"

The black panther muttered to itself, overjoyed; the black cat didn't understand at all what it was fantasizing about.

"Babajide Akingbade, you should get out—"

Hearing this, the black cat turned its head nimbly and saw an old wizard wearing elegant deep blue robes walking over.

Three-quarters finished, there will be another one and a half chapters tomorrow noon. ===== CHAPTER 471 =====
