Hogwarts Crawler

"Yes, Adam is right. His restaurant, called 'Storm', is about to open."

"It's already been renovated. It's in the northeast corner of Hogsmeade, along the Dream Dessert Workshop..."

Fred and George finished their sentences one by one, and then added:

"Didn't we tell you?"

"Of course not!"

Ron looked at these two unreliable guys in shock. They had a good relationship with Adam and would occasionally go to report (eat) work (eat) (drink), but they never told them any news.

Fred and George looked at each other and shrugged their shoulders:

"Well, this matter has nothing to do with you anyway."

Ron was stunned.

That seems to make sense?

"Oh my god, it's incredible."

Hermione shook her head:

"He got an O in every class, but he still had time to open a shop. How did he have time..."

"Isn't the question where he got so much money?"

Ron couldn't help but complain,

"As for the time of opening the shop, what's so strange about it? It's just like Fred and George's Magic Tricks and Ambrosio's Dream Dessert Workshop. Maybe the store manager is someone else? He just invested and held shares... So where did he get so much money?"

"Adam always has a way to get the money."

In this regard, Fred and George were convinced, especially after they couldn't help but gamble at the Quidditch World Cup.

Good news: The bet won.

Bad news: The bastard who opened the market used the leprechaun gold coins to settle the bill for them.

The twins went back to the pre-liberation era overnight. If they hadn't lost their minds and used public funds to gamble, the Magic Tricks would have almost broken its cash flow and declared bankruptcy on the spot.

Fred and George certainly couldn't let it go after being cheated out of their entire fortunes. However, they joined forces with all the people who were cheated to catch the person, only to find that the person couldn't pay that much money at all, and his entire fortune wasn't enough.

Originally, they had given up, but after Adam heard about this at the tea party, he actually helped them get the money back!

Although only the principal was recovered, and each Galleon had to be exchanged for "I will never gamble again", at least the money was really returned!

"Amen!"

Fred and George drew a cross on their chests.

"Okay, okay, I know your boss has money, but now the focus is on the study group."

Ron looked at Hermione:

"Except Adam, are all the other invited people free?"

"Uh... they are all willing to come."

Hermione's abnormality was not discovered.

After being rejected by Adam, Hermione reflected on it and felt that part of Adam's rejection was because Adam himself had good grades and felt that he didn't need Harry's guidance.

So when she invited them later, she didn't explicitly say it was a study group, but only said that Harry was going to say a few words about the mysterious man and share some experiences with everyone... Anyway, it's almost the same, she just changed the wording.

"But, is it really okay for us to do this?"

Fred and George looked at the two of them.

"If I'm not mistaken, you shouldn't have told Harry that the study group now has so many people?"

"Uh..."

Hermione and Ron looked at each other,

"We will tell him that the study group will have two or three more people than before."

"If that's the case, maybe Adam's restaurant is a better place than the Hog's Head?"

Fred touched his chin and looked at George.

"A secret place that hasn't officially opened yet, and it can also get Adam's protection!"

George raised his hand and high-fived Fred.

"Well... this is a good idea, but let's not talk about whether Adam agrees or not, there is another problem here."

Ron swallowed his saliva and looked at Fred and George with a guilty look:

"Is Adam's restaurant big enough? I mean... can it accommodate about... 20 to 30 people?"

...

"A place for study groups?"

Adam raised his eyebrows.

"Adam, I know that 'Storm' is a high-end restaurant like 'Black Swan', not a bar, and it is not suitable for noisy gatherings of dozens of people."

Black Swan is the name of Mr. Reed's French restaurant. Hermione clasped her hands together and begged:

"But..."

"I agree."

"...What?"

"I agree, you can gather in the Storm Restaurant and hold your... study group."

Adam smiled slightly.

The first gathering place of Dumbledore's Army... How memorable it is, should he hang a photo on the first floor in the future?

Of course, hanging photos is a joke, mainly Dumbledore'sThe Blidor Army will only go out for this gathering, and will go to the Room of Requirement for training afterwards. It doesn't matter whether you accept or refuse.

"Really? Thank you so much, Adam!"

Hermione cheered.

"Don't be too happy yet. The Storm Restaurant is not officially open yet. In other words... there is nothing to eat in the Storm Restaurant now. I'm afraid I can only provide some drinks."

"It doesn't matter. We want to choose the Storm Restaurant mainly for privacy considerations."

Hermione had no objection to this.

"By the way, will you join the study group?"

"I'm sorry, even if you move the study group to the Storm Restaurant, the things to do are still there, and I'm afraid I don't have time."

Adam shook his head at Hermione:

"But if you need help, I should be there."

"Okay... but thank you again, Adam."

"You're welcome."

Watching Hermione leave, Adam looked at Grindelwald:

"It's causing trouble again. The Ministry of Magic won't want to see... Professor Dumbledore has such a "private army."

"Tsk--"

Grindelwald sneered disdainfully.

Since the Ministry of Magic is so scared that it thinks Dumbledore is extremely dangerous even with a group of students, why not think that Dumbledore alone is actually dangerous enough?

Because Fudge is deceiving himself...

On the one hand, they clearly know that Dumbledore is too powerful for them to fight, but on the other hand, they are desperately promoting that Dumbledore is not that powerful, so this seemingly contradictory attitude will appear.

"By then, Professor Dumbledore will probably avoid the battle and completely withdraw from Hogwarts."

Adam shook his head and looked at Grindelwald:

"He will probably take you away."

Grindelwald frowned. This is true. Although he doesn't know why Dumbledore transferred him from Nurmengard to Hogwarts to guard him personally, even if he leaves Hogwarts, Dumbledore should guard him personally instead of letting him return to Nurmengard.

"Do you want to stay in Hogwarts?"

Grindelwald looked at Adam in surprise:

"You don't plan to hide anymore?"

"When did I say I planned to hide?"

Adam looked at Grindelwald strangely:

"Since Professor Dumbledore has left Hogwarts, he must resign as the headmaster. Hogwarts certainly needs a new headmaster."
