Is this really the time to study?” Ron slumped in his seat, shaking his head. “There’s plenty of time to study once we get to school.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yang likes reading—that’s not a bad thing.” Harry grabbed a Bertie Bott’s Every Flavour Bean and tossed it into his mouth; his face twisted instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron, curious, picked up a bean of the same color and popped it in, then grimaced. “Tastes like boogers—disgusting!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two ate snacks while chatting about life at the upcoming school.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Found Itachi at last!” the girl pointed excitedly at Chu Yang, as if she’d discovered a long-sought treasure!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron and Harry stared at Chu Yang, bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl’s voice was loud, jolting Chu Yang from his reading. He pointed at himself. “Me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, Itachi!” The girl plopped down beside Chu Yang and blurted out, “What spell did Itachi use in the wand shop?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang sighed. “That wasn’t magic—I just waved the wand as Mr. Ollivander instructed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The girl looked incredulous, then shook her head. “Impossible. Pure magical energy couldn’t produce such a terrifying effect!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t know then. I’m just a new student, like Itachi.” Chu Yang gave a casual reply and returned to his book.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey! Tell us what exactly happened!” Ron stared at the two, itching to gossip like an old woman.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry looked equally curious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So the girl told them everything that had happened in the wand shop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing her story, Ron and Harry wore the same stunned expression, gazing at Chu Yang in awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“By the way—I haven’t introduced myself yet. I’m Hermione Granger. Just call me Hermione.” Hermione introduced herself confidently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron and Harry gave their own introductions, but when it came to Chu Yang, there was silence—Hermione turned to find him still reading.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Here we go again!” Ron rolled his eyes. “Mate, seriously, pretending like this for us means nothing—we’re all classmates.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry tugged Ron’s sleeve and whispered, “Ron, don’t say that…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ron laughed bitterly. “Look at how he flips through that book—does that look like he’s actually reading?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry hesitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d never seen anyone read like Chu Yang did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione stood beside Chu Yang, tilting her head to read the book’s cover. “‘Practical Defense Against the Dark Arts’?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This isn’t a first-year textbook,” Hermione frowned. She remembered clearly—the only book related to Dark Arts was titled “Dark Forces: A Guide to Self-Protection” (Defensive Magical Theory).\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d memorized that book inside and out—this was clearly not the same one!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thought flashed through Hermione’s mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn’t a first-year book—it was an advanced one!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione snatched the book from Chu Yang’s hands and began reading intently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your behavior is extremely rude, Miss Granger!” Chu Yang frowned. “Whether as a wizard or a normal person, Itachi should maintain basic manners.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione stiffly returned the book, defiant. “This book is far more complex and obscure than ‘Dark Forces.’ Can Itachi even understand it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang replied coolly. “Once Itachi’ve finished ‘Dark Forces,’ reading this won’t be difficult.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione fell silent, her ears and neck turning red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As someone who had memorized ‘Dark Forces’ perfectly, those words felt to her like Chu Yang calling her stupid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione cried out, “Specializing in one subject is terrible for a wizard! Focusing only on Dark Arts is useless! The real foundation is ‘Magical Theory’!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione’s loud voice gave Chu Yang a headache; impatiently, he recited the first page of ‘Magical Theory’ to shut her up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, Hermione stopped speaking, staring at him in disbelief. “I don’t believe it—unless Itachi recite the whole book.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Chu Yang did—reciting the entire book from start to finish.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Hermione still unconvinced, Chu Yang calmly recited the opening chapters of the other textbooks one by one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each time Chu Yang finished a chapter, Hermione’s expression grew more agitated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your parents must have taught Itachi these things ahead of time, so Itachi’d look impressive at school,” Hermione grumbled. If she’d had such parents, she’d have learned even faster!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang closed the book and said slowly, “I did read these books ahead of time—but only after receiving my acceptance letter. I studied alone for a month in the Leaky Cauldron. No one taught me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just one month? Itachi learned this much?” Hermione shook her head firmly. “I don’t believe it. Your parents must have taught Itachi!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry couldn’t take it anymore. He stood up and shouted, “Enough! Both Yang and I are orphans. We have no parents—no one taught us any of this!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Orphan?” Hermione stared at Harry, then snapped back to reality and clapped her hand over her mouth, eyes filled with regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For someone raised as an orphan, nothing cut deeper than mentioning their parents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m sorry—I didn’t mean to—I didn’t know Itachi were…” Hermione stammered an apology to Chu Yang, her voice trembling with tears, sincere and ashamed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This atmosphere was the last thing Chu Yang wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Couldn’t they just sit quietly until they reached Hogwarts?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Yang sighed and forced a small smile. “Miss Granger, I don’t care about being an orphan. The orphanage I came from was small and old, but everyone there was kind.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Headmistress Anna organizes birthday parties for the children every year, telling us that even if our parents aren’t here, someone still loves us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I grew up in a good environment. I’m not ashamed or insecure about my background.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, yes, I know,” Hermione nodded frantically, still apologetic—she thought Chu Yang was putting on a brave face; the more calm he seemed, the more she believed he was suffering inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Ron stood up to apologize for his attitude. Suddenly, the snacks in his hand lost all flavor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two kind-hearted students stood before Chu Yang, endlessly apologizing—the atmosphere in the compartment grew heavier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh heavens!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What are Itachi two doing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I just want Itachi to be quiet so I can read my book!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is this really necessary?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Helpless, Chu Yang grabbed the snacks beside him and shoved them into Hermione’s and Ron’s mouths. “Eat! Finish them, and I’ll forgive Itachi—that’s your punishment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a word, they both began eating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The compartment fell silent. Chu Yang smiled in satisfaction and returned to his book.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry stared, bewildered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is there really such a thing as a punishment that involves giving someone snacks?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1067,"2026-06-20T16:23:12.107Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","efc76bdafc3c827203aa286d3593ee56129795d8966147c7c39b06075f7e5927","simultaneously-transmigrated-starting-from-narut-chapter-27","simultaneously-transmigrated-starting-from-narut-chapter-25",498,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsimultaneously-transmigrated-starting-from-narut-cover.jpg"]
