The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 532 The Real Beating

After Harry and Ron disappeared, nothing was more disturbing than Percy.

Although, it was not his fault, but as the oldest child of the Weasley family in the school, Percy had the responsibility to take care of the mischievous younger brothers and sisters.

Originally this was Charlie's responsibility, but Charlie had already graduated from school, so the responsibility fell to Percy.

He didn't forget to owl his family to tell them the news of Harry and Ron's disappearance.

However, Percy didn't know that the Weasley family, who had just returned to the car from the platform, was stunned when they found that their old Ford car had been stolen.

It never occurred to the Weasleys that someone would steal their Ford.

The Ford was so bewitched that the average Muggle wouldn't even notice it, let alone try to steal it.

As for the fact that the Ford Motor flew away by itself, even the Weasleys would not believe it if they were killed. If it was true, it would have caused a sensation long ago.

After searching for the car around to no avail, Mr. Weasley's face was full of unconcealable disappointment, and when they were finally about to apparate and go home, they received a letter from Percy's owl, knowing that Harry and Ron were not on the train According to the news on the Internet, I even guessed who secretly drove the Ford car!

"How dare they... do that!"

Mrs. Weasley tightly pinched the note from Percy, gritted her teeth and turned to look at her husband, complaining, "It's all your fault, I told you a long time ago, don't indulge them, don't indulge them, Fortunately, they actually stole the car and prepared to drive to Hogwarts by themselves, I've never seen it before..."

"Okay, Molly, Harry and Ron will be fine." Mr. Weasley took a deep breath to calm down his emotions. He looked sullenly at the empty parking space, and put his arms around his wife's shoulders to comfort him. Said: "Let's go home and wait for the news!"

Besides, Mr. Weasley really had no other better way, once the car flew into the sky, there was no way they could find Harry and Ron.

As for whether the two of them could reach Hogwarts safely, Mr. Weasley was not worried at all. He would definitely not get lost if he followed the train.

It's just that Mr. Weasley felt that he might need to go back and make some preparations, just in case.

"No matter what, Ron must be severely punished this time."

At this moment, Ron, who was imagining that he would descend from the sky in a car and stop on the lawn in front of Hogwarts Castle to welcome the envy and envy of all the students in the school, had no idea of ​​the fate he was about to usher in.

They were still following the Hogwarts train on the clouds, and Fred and George below were startled by their bold speculation, and were opening the window, trying to stick their heads out of the window to find the Ford car following the train Harry and Ron behind.

"Don't look, even if Harry and Ron really go to school in a Ford car, you won't be able to see it. They must have flown into the air or become invisible." Albert looked at him quite speechlessly, trying to poke his head Fred and George outside the window.

"Oh, that's right, Dad's Ford car can indeed be invisible." George muttered softly.

Looking at the appearance of Fred and George, they seem to feel lost because they didn't get to go to Hogwarts school in a Ford car.

Albert looked at it and shook his head.

After lunch, a few people got together and played a few rounds of wizard cards. In the following time, Fred, George and Lee Jordan took turns asking Albert about traveling abroad.

Albert, who was annoyed by the question, began to pretend to be drowsy, and casually followed the three people's inquiries.

When approaching the school, the door of the carriage was knocked again, and Hermione came to them with a copy of the Daily Prophet.

"Ford Anglia flies to Muggle amazement." Fred took the Daily Prophet and whispered the headline: "Two Muggles in London convinced they saw an old car fly by Post Office Building."

"I remember your father worked in the Misuse of Muggle Substances Division?" Albert asked suddenly.

"Is it really Harry and Ron?" Hermione's face was very ugly. She didn't expect that Harry and Ron missed the train deliberately, and they were thinking of such an idea.

"It's probably them."

"How dare they..."

"Maybe it's for showing off!"

"Speaking of which, your younger brother is really cheating." Albert took the newspaper, read the headlines carefully, and shook his head: "I think they are still complacent!"

Hermione's face was even worse.

"Now, a fine must be inevitable!" Lee Jordan said.

"It's about fifty to one hundred Galleons." Albert closed the newspaper and handed it back to Hermione, reckoning, "If no one is specifically targeted, it shouldn't be enough to lose my job."

"Of course, Harry and Ron shouldn't be expelled either." Albert said to Hermione with an ugly face: "After all, Dumbledore is very fancy about the savior, and it would be really bad luck if it were someone else. Yes. However, point deduction and confinement are probably indispensable."

The envy and jealousy on the faces of Fred and George were all replaced by astonishment.

"Now, do you still envy them?" Albert asked with a smile, looking sideways at Fred and George.

The two shook their heads in unison. According to Albert's analysis, they already knew that Harry and Ron, who were sitting in the Ford car and were about to show off, were going to be in bad luck.

"It's unbelievable," murmured Hermione as she walked away, finding it hard to believe that Harry and Ron would do such a stupid thing.

For the rest of the trip, they didn't talk much more.

The train finally pulled into the Hogsmeade platform slowly. When Albert and his partner got off the train with the crowd, they heard many students whispering and discussing that some people came to school by car.

No doubt a lot of students thought it was so cool, they wished they were the only ones coming to school by car.

The expressions on Fred and George's faces became more and more complicated. If there was no Albert, they would probably think the same way!
"First graders come here!"

A familiar voice came from not far away. The burly hunting ground administrator was waving to the panicked freshmen, preparing to take them to experience the traditional ceremony of crossing the lake.

The rest of the students took the Thestral carriage to Hogwarts Castle under the night sky.

Behind the winding Thestrals, a Ford skidded across the lake, over dark greenhouses, vegetable fields, over the lawn outside Hogwarts, and crashed headlong into the trunk of a Whomping Willow.

There were no cheers from the students as expected, nor envious eyes, but only the irritated Whomping Willow.Harry and Ron, who hadn't been beaten by the cruel reality, were beaten severely by the branches of the Whomping Willow first.

The two people who had just narrowly escaped from the dead no longer had the excitement of riding in the car at first, and some only had daze and fear, and they didn't even know what they were about to face.
