Cecilia's letter writing style is very similar to Michaelera's. It is concise and to the point, absolutely no nonsense. Catherine folded the letter and put it away, and after a long time of rummaging in the box, she finally read the letter from "Tracing the Origin of Spells". I found the report card that was a little crumpled by myself.Cecilia had returned to England ten days before, but they had not seen each other.Father and mother are at home every day, but they stay in the study every day and don't show up.

During the holiday, Catherine and Draco passed two letters, basically talking about Quidditch.Flint expressed great doubts about her willingness to become a batsman, but reluctantly agreed to let her go to school to give it a try under the persuasion of Gemma-senpai.

Pansy and Daphne had also sent her a letter, similarly succinct.

Dear Catherine:

Help!

Show us your summer homework.

tips1: Forget about the astronomy class, we let Astoria (that is, my sister——by Daphne) cheat Brace from the astronomy homework he cheated from Draco, and I have copied it for you copy, attached to the back of the letter.

tips2: There is no need for Defense Against the Dark Arts, we are done.

Pansy Parkinson & Daphne Greengrass

Pansy can only be non-hostile when she asks herself for homework.And... there is no homework for Defense Against the Dark Arts at all!

NO.17 is coming soon, Catherine put on the new dress sent by the fashion store, and dabbed a little perfume on her wrist and behind her ears, then nervously took the report card, and happily went to see Cecilia.

"Who is this Gilderoy Lockhart?" Catherine asked her sister holding the second grade book list, which was almost all his books.

"Why did you ask him all of a sudden?" Cecilia had a look of disgust on her face, and they were heading to Lihen Bookstore now.

"Because there are a lot of his books on my book list." Catherine said, and then she found that many witches were walking in the direction of Lihen Bookstore. Are there many students this year?

"Ugh... I happened to go to one of his lectures in Germany, but I left after listening to it for a minute because he was a complete idiot." Cecilia looked surprised, and she took Catherine's book list. "Why would Hogwarts use his books?"

"Maybe it's because he's returned to England?" Catherine guessed wildly, because she saw a banner at the entrance of Lihen Bookstore, "Guideroy Lockhart signed and sold his autobiography "I Can Be Magic"".

"It's unfortunate." Cecilia also saw the banner, "I guess one of your teachers in the new semester must have a fanatical admirer of him." She walked through the crowd, looking around in the bookstore , "Come on, let's go upstairs and ask the clerk to bring your book."

"I really don't understand why those Muggles can enter Diagon Alley. There are already a lot of people here." Catherine lay on the railing on the second floor and looked downstairs.

"Don't we wizards often go to the Muggle world?" Cecilia walked back and forth among the hardcover books on the second floor. Her work efficiency has always been very high. "Guide to Medicine", "Turning Goblins into Goblins", "How Underage Wizards Face Danger: Guardians" and handed them to Catherine, "You will use them all", and then she took another copy of "One Hundred Common Constellations", "You will also use this. The astronomy class at Hogwarts is too simple. You should read something else."

"But we can't use magic in the Muggle world, and we can't let them know that we are wizards. It's too unfair for them to dare to let us know that they are Muggles when they come to Diagon Alley." Catherine took the book and continued.

Cecilia frowned, "I don't want you to be prejudiced against Muggles, Catherine, they are the same as us."

How could it be the same?

Catherine disagreed, but she rarely confronted her sister head-on, so she chose to shut up.Gilderoy Lockhart is downstairs signing a new book. He has thick brown curly hair and a tall and straight figure. The witches around him are crazy about him.

"Hey, Catherine, you're here too." A familiar voice rang out, no need to guess, it must be Draco, he was wearing a school uniform - he didn't go to school today, why was he wearing a school uniform?Catherine didn't, and she never wore a school uniform when she wasn't in school.

"My sister and I came to buy books," Catherine said. "Have you bought the book yet?"

"I asked the clerk to get it, there are too many people downstairs." Draco said, he glanced at the noisy crowd downstairs, even the Daily Prophet came to take pictures of Lockhart.

"Is it your friend, Catherine?" Cecilia came over. The clerk had already wrapped the books. She checked them just now and took out five Galleons. "Send them to Ferrara Manor." she said to the clerk.

"I'm Draco Malfoy, Miss Ferrara, and I'm your sister's good friend." Draco said, he was always very proud when he introduced himself, but today there is some politeness in his pride.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Malfoy. Go buy books, there are a lot of people today, you and Catherine can go back to school and chat." Cecilia probably didn't want to stay in a place with so many people.

"Okay, Miss Ferrara, goodbye. Goodbye Catherine." Draco was really polite today.

When they came out of Lihen Bookstore, they met a serious man with long blond hair holding a snake-headed cane in his hand. Catherine thought the blond hair was very familiar, like Draco's, although she and her mother Blonde too, but their blond was darker than Draco's.Cecilia didn't pay attention to that man. She seemed to have something to say and was looking for the only tea shop in Diagon Alley.

Looking at the backs of the two Ferraras, the blond man raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing an elegant and decent smile. He recognized Cecilia, the rising star of the German Ministry of Magic. The little girl beside her must be Her sister: Catherine.Their eyes were very similar, a rare golden brown.The man walked into Lihen Bookstore, and with twenty gold Galleons, he easily knew which books the Ferrara sisters were about to mail. Then he took out his wand and quietly clipped an old diary in "Standard Spells: Two" Between the two books "Level" and "Walking with Trolls"-they came out of the bookstore but didn't pick up the book, so they must have chosen to mail it. Although the postage of Lihen Bookstore costs five Galleons, the fee The lesbians don't care, just like the Malfoys don't care.

After finishing these, he showed a satisfied smile, and then went up to the second floor. "I saw your classmate—Miss Ferrara, Draco." The man was Draco's father, Lucius Malfoy, and they had the same pale blond hair.

"Have you talked?" Draco flipped through a copy of "The Principles of Potions", and then he tore off the page he was reading, and put it in his pocket.

"No, there are too many people. Buy your book, we should go." Lucius said, he was not satisfied with his son's excited expression when he mentioned Catherine now.

"She rides a broom very well and can be a chaser. Although she always wants to be a batsman, it doesn't matter. The important thing is that we can teach Potter a lesson this year." Draco mentioned Ha It's actually the most exciting when it's profitable.

"I'll go to your game, Draco," Lucius said. "Now, we're leaving."

"I don't understand why you got an A for such a simple course in astronomy." Cecilia and Catherine sat in "Ms. K's Tea Shop", which is the only tea shop in Diagon Alley. They each put a cup in front of them and danced lemon tea with ice cubes.

"It's not simple at all. Those stars are obviously hanging in the sky one by one, why should they be connected together?" Catherine whispered while dealing with the ice cubes that kept jumping in the glass.

"Go back and read the book I gave you today, and ask me anytime you don't understand, do you understand?" Cecilia became serious, like a young version of Professor McGonagall.

"Understood." Catherine sat on the chair obediently now, more disciplined than when she was in class.

Cecilia may also feel that she was too harsh just now, so she changed the subject, "Do you have a good relationship with Malfoy?" she asked.

"We're friends, both in Slytherin," Catherine said.

"I know I have no right to interfere with your social life, but I also have to tell you, don't get too close to Malfoy. There are other students in Slytherin, such as Nott, Parkinson, you just need to talk to them Just maintain a superficial friendship, not a deep friendship." Cecilia originally wanted to change the subject, but in fact she became more serious.

"Because they used to..." Catherine knew that the Malfoy family had followed the mysterious man, even though they always said it was forced, it still wouldn't change the fact.

"It's because of this. And I also know that person has disappeared for a long time, but this kind of person can neither stand on the side of Principal Dumbledore, nor swear to follow the mysterious man. Malfoy's whole family is Slytherin, they are Absolute egoists-maybe these words are too early for you, but I still hope you stay away from them." Cecilia said.

But, sister, I'm a Slytherin too; I have a lot in common with Draco, Nott, and even Pansy.

Catherine nodded and said nothing.

On September [-]st, Catherine still went to the station alone. Cecilia returned to Germany three days ago, and she had a backlog of work to deal with.
