Retirement from Hogwarts

It has to be said that time passed very quickly in Hogwarts without big news. Soon people forgot about the Halloween accident and unknowingly it was less than two weeks before Christmas.

"Snape is really too much. Why is he, a substitute teacher, skipping the lesson plan prepared by Professor Lupine for us to talk about damn werewolves, and giving us so many homework assignments?" before leaving the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom. On the way, Harry, who was used to Snape's venomous substitute teaching once a month, dissatisfied and loudly complained to the three friends who were in class with him about Snape's unreasonable behavior.

"Harry, please stop complaining. Although Snape has a bit of a bad mouth, what he said is still very clear. Do you want Professor Binns to take over the class?" Although Jack said this, But he glanced at Hermione quietly.If this girl could invite her private tutor who was hiding in the Gryffindor Chamber of Secrets, then this monthly substitute day would not be so painful. "And if you really want to write down the two key points on how to identify and kill werewolves that were assigned in Snape's homework, those two standard handwritten parchments can only give you a rough outline."

"How could this happen?" Harry couldn't help but despair after hearing Jack's explanation about Snape's homework.Why did this happen? It was the first time I had a teacher I liked.I have a vacation that lasts a lifetime.Two happy things come together.And these two joys bring me more happiness.What we got was supposed to be a happy time like a dream, but why did it become like this.

"Don't think about Snape, Harry, think about good things." Neville, who was the most scolded in this class, patted Harry on the shoulder to comfort him, "Christmas is coming, you guys are on holiday What are the arrangements?"

"I'm still the same, staying at Hogwarts." Harry shrugged after hearing Neville's question, saying that this holiday was actually no different from an ordinary weekend. "If you have time, go to the Boggart and practice the magic on my father's notebook that Professor Lupin gave me."

"We're staying at Hogwarts for the holidays too," Jack said to Neville. "There are things that need to be dealt with."

"That's it, forget it." Neville said a little disappointed. "My grandma also wants to invite you to my house. It seems there is no hope this year."

"Going to your house?" Harry's eyes lit up after hearing Neville's words and he excitedly overturned his previous plan to practice magic during the holidays. "Anyway, I have nothing to do during the holiday, so I'll go with you."

"Sorry Neville, we really don't have time this year." Hermione said a little apologetically after hearing Neville's plan. "A senior who takes good care of us has something to discuss with us during the holidays."

"But we don't have much to do next summer vacation. Except for a guy inviting us to go to the Free Cantilever, we have a lot of free time to arrange during the summer vacation. If your grandma doesn't mind, we can visit your home next summer vacation. "Jack looked at the disappointed Neville and said to him after thinking for a moment.

"Of course I don't mind. How about you come along, Harry?" Neville asked happily.

"Of course I have no problem, but my aunt and uncle are a bit difficult to deal with." Harry was very happy at first after hearing Neville's suggestion, but when he thought about his aunt and uncle, his face turned bitter.

"Well, it all depends on man-made things, doesn't it?" Jack said after blinking at Harry. "I happen to have it on hand

Here are some tickets for this Quidditch World Cup, let’s go watch it together then. "

"Really?" Harry became excited as soon as he heard the word Quidditch.

"Of course." Jack nodded affirmatively to Harry, and then said mysteriously. "Also, Harry, if you haven't picked out your broom yet, you might as well wait a few days. We have something great to release for Christmas."

"What?" After hearing Jack's words, Harry felt that his curiosity was about to rebel. As expected, this kind of guy who likes to titillate people is the most disgusting.

"You'll know then." Jack smiled mysteriously and patted Harry on the shoulder, then walked with Hermione to the Ravenclaw table in the Great Hall.

Christmas has arrived at Hogwarts amid the intense study caused by the Halloween incident. However, Professor Lupine, who returned in the last Defense Against the Dark Arts class before the holidays, exempted them from their homework on werewolves. Many people breathed a sigh of relief.

But Hermione was very disappointed with this.She complained quietly to Jack at the dinner table that night: "I've almost done that homework, but I just need to polish it."

"Don't worry, you'll need it sooner or later." Jack comforted her in a low voice while cutting a lamb chop that Hermione liked into bite-size pieces and placing it in front of Hermione. "If they don't do this homework this year, they still have to make up for it in fifth grade. They can't escape it."

"Pfft, what do you mean you can't escape." Hermione looked at Jack with a funny look, then inserted a piece of mutton chop and ate it happily.

"But it's really deserted tonight, there are so few people." She said after swallowing the mutton chops in her mouth and scanning the auditorium.

"Most people have left tonight. After all, although my company has made transportation a lot more convenient, many secondary nodes on remote planets are still under construction and cannot be used. Students in remote areas want to catch up I still need some time to take the boat tomorrow night at home on Christmas Eve." Jack explained looking at the auditorium where there were only three or two kittens.

"Why so slow?" Hermione asked in surprise. "I remember that your company's space-time hub has already covered all administrative stars above the first level?"

"Those first-level ones with a population of more than [-] million people have indeed completed the coverage of the space-time hub long ago, but many of those weird second-level administrative stars have no coverage value, and those that rely on tourism resources have sufficient coverage value There is serious local protectionism on the low-level administrative planet, and they spend all day and night trying to trick people with their so-called space sightseeing cruises." Jack said with a grimace after hearing Hermione's question.

"Sightseeing cruise?" Hermione's face turned dark when she heard the word. Apparently, Hermione had been tricked more than once or twice by these guys who defrauded money under the guise of sightseeing. "Those nasty guys aren't broke yet?"

"No." Jack shrugged helplessly. "Although many people on the main waterways have been squeezed out by me, those who specialize in tourism are still living a good life under local protectionism."

"In this case, why don't you just build ships? Your space-time hub is not big anyway. You can build several large cruise ships equipped with space-time hubs to jump back and forth between those secondary planets to provide those who need it. Round trip service." Hermione, who had never interfered with Jack's business, actually gave Jack some advice this time under the stimulation of those tourist cruises.
