The Admiral of Hogwarts

During the last of his vacation, Hugo was unable to summon any new ship girls, because Hood and the others had already collected almost all of the British ship girl relics that were easy to find. Hood and the others hadn't had time to collect relics from other countries yet. So, it seemed that summoning new ship girls would have to wait a while longer.

However, apart from that, life at Hood's house was perfect. Especially after Hugo and the others summoned Renown and Repulse.

For example, on the last night of their stay, Hugo and the others enjoyed a feast comparable to the Hogwarts opening banquet.

Or, to be precise, as a member of the Royal Navy, the head maid prepared a standard British royal dinner for Hugo. This included Windsor soup, Queen Mary salmon fillets, Prince Albert lamb chops, Strathmore-style capon, and Duchess Elizabeth strawberries.

After enjoying dinner, Hugo and the others chatted in the living room for several hours, discussing many important arrangements for the new semester. It wasn't until Renown brought a pot of hot cocoa for everyone that they all said goodnight and returned to their respective rooms to sleep.

On the morning of September 1st, everyone got up early. After washing up and eating a simple breakfast, they took their luggage for school and got into the two Pajeros driven by Renown and Repulse, then set off from Hood's house and headed south towards King's Cross Station.

As someone who knew the plot, Hugo and the ship girls naturally knew what might happen today. To earn Destiny Points, they had naturally made some preparations.

This included having Vampire transform into a bat and lie in ambush near Platform 9 3/4 at King's Cross Station in advance.

"I saw a house-elf sneaking around, hiding behind a GG sign above the station, staring at the entrance to Platform 9 3/4," Vampire's voice rang out in the Admiral Network as Hugo and the others were halfway there. "Do you want me to take him out now?"

"Of course not, stay there for now and monitor the situation. Just let me know when Harry and the Weasley family arrive. Thank you for your hard work."

Hugo immediately rejected Vampire's suggestion. After all, Dobby didn't deserve to die.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered that one of the important reasons why the Weasleys were so late in the original Harry Potter story was that Ginny had forgotten her diary when they were about to get on the highway, so they spent a long time running back to get it. If it hadn't been for this reason, the Weasley family would have arrived at King's Cross Station much earlier.

Obviously, because of Hugo's influence, Lucius Malfoy hadn't been able to take advantage of certain opportunities to give Ginny the diary that Voldemort used as a Horcrux. In that case, Ginny wouldn't have wasted so much time forgetting her notebook, so she wouldn't be in such a hurry.

In other words, Harry and the others were definitely not the last people to arrive here this time, and people would continue to arrive after them. So Hugo was a little curious about what method the house-elf Dobby would use to stop Harry and the others from going to school in this situation.

As Hugo and the others walked into King's Cross Station, there were nearly 20 minutes left before the train departed. It was at this time that they happened to meet the Weasley family, who were also pushing trolleys and walking in from outside the station. After a brief greeting, everyone entered Platform 9 3/4 in batches.

However, just as Hugo and Hermione were thanking Hood for his hospitality during this time, two crashing sounds suddenly came from behind. Hearing the sound, Hugo and the others immediately turned around and saw Harry and Ron on the ground, their trolleys overturned to the side, and their luggage scattered all over the floor.

After seeing the accident, many people stopped and gathered around, and even the guards were approaching them. Perhaps because of Hathaway's constant cries, some young people nearby began to accuse Harry and Ron of abusing animals.

Hugo seemed a little surprised to see this scene. He really didn't expect the house-elf to take this approach in a completely different situation.

Especially when Firefly informed Hugo at this time that he saw the house-elf Dobby disappear directly after snapping his fingers, obviously confident in his approach.

"Does Dobby really have a brain?" Hugo found this scene quite speechless. But considering that Dobby almost killed Harry in the original text to prevent Harry from being killed by the basilisk, then closing Platform 9 3/4 with a bunch of people outside was also an understandable approach.

Thinking this way, Hugo and the others ran to Harry and the others to help them put the scattered luggage back on their trolleys, and asked them, "What just happened here? It feels like you ran straight into a wall."

"Actually, we really ran into a wall," Harry whispered to Hugo.

"Theoretically, we should have passed through this wall to reach Platform 9 3/4. But the result was that we just ran straight into a solid wall when we touched this platform with our trolleys."

"Let me see." Hugo nodded slightly, leaned against the wall at the exit of Platform 9 3/4, and knocked on it with his hand. Sure enough, the wall was now sealed off, just as Harry had said, and felt no different from the ordinary station walls.

"What should we do now?" Harry turned to look at Hood nervously. At this time, an adult wizard obviously became the backbone of Harry and the others.

"There are still ten minutes before the train leaves. What if we miss the train?"

"Don't worry, I think this should just be a malfunction. For a magical facility that has been in use for at least a century, I think it's inevitable."

Hood hid his wand in his sleeve, tapped the wall at the entrance, and whispered to Harry. "Also, there are so many people here, you don't have to worry about not being able to go to school."

After saying that, Hood first asked Veneto to prepare to block other students and parents to prevent them from running into the wall, and then led everyone away from the crowd of onlookers.

"Wait here for me." After instructing everyone to wait here for a while, Hood found a deserted place and disapparated to the Ministry of Magic. Five or six minutes later, with a slight crackling sound, she reappeared in that corner with a middle-aged man.

"This is a staff member from the Department of Magical Transportation at the Ministry of Magic," Hood said, introducing as she walked towards the platform. "I think this problem will be solved soon."

Soon, the staff member cast a spell to hide himself in front of the entrance to the passage to prevent Muggles from watching. Then, he took out his wand and a few instruments and tapped on the wall.
