Chapter 916: The girl in the Carriage



Chapter 916: The girl in the Carriage

For the rest of the journey, no one came to visit again. Evan told Colin and Dennis about his trip to Italy, his summer vacation experience and the ins and outs of becoming the Head Boy. The two guys were looking at him with admiring eyes.

Evan and Hermione didn’t go out for a tour, but Ron couldn’t help going out and taking a round.

He told everyone that he was going to find Lavender and did not return until more than three hours later, with a smug smile on his face.

The weather remained undecided as they traveled farther and farther north.

Rain spattered the windows in a halfhearted way, then the sun put in a feeble appearance before clouds drifted over it once more. When darkness fell and lamps came on inside the carriages, Luna rolled up The Quibbler, put it carefully away in her bag, and took to staring at everyone in the compartment instead.

Colin and Dennis had gone back to pack their luggage, and it was completely dark outside the window.

It was a moonless night, and the rain-streaked windows were grimy.

“We’d better change,” said Hermione at last, obviously speaking to Evan.

It was indeed very convenient to ask Evan to help her with her luggage, but there was one bad thing. She had to ask Evan for whatever clothes she wanted to wear.

It was up to Evan whether she could wear this dress…

Of course, in most cases, Evan would not refuse Hermione’s request, and would hand over her clothes voluntarily.

Everyone hurriedly opened their trunks, and Evan found out his and Hermione’s robes and they put them on.

At last the train began to slow down and they heard the usual racket up and down it as everybody scrambled to get their luggage and pets assembled, ready for departure.

“We must maintain order, hurry up!” said Hermione. “Evan, after everyone has left, you have to stay and inspect the carriages to see if there are any leftovers or people. This is the job of the Head Boy.”

“I know. Why is it the job of the Head Boy?” said Evan. He felt that the house-elves should do this work.

They would check every compartment one by one and do their best to make sure nothing was left behind.

He and Ron followed Hermione out of the compartment, leaving Harry and the others to look after Crookshanks and Pigwidgeon.

The corridor was already crowded with people, and Hermione told them to slow down, and not to crowd.

The three of them walked forward for a while and came to the junction of the two carriages.

In the corridor, they felt the first sting of the night air on their faces.

Hagrid was not seen on the platform. He’d taken his brother back in the wilderness. He had to be cautious not to be spotted by anyone while taking care of Grawp, which was not an easy job, and it was unknown where they were.

Since Hagrid was not there, Professor Wilhelmina Grubbly-Plank replaced him.

“First years line up over here, please! All first years to me!” she shouted, carrying a lantern.

It was a witch with a prominent chin and severe haircut. She had previously taken over Hagrid’s Care of Magical Creatures lessons for a while. She showed everyone the unicorn, which was well-liked by the students.

“See you later!” said Evan, waving his hand.

He separated from Hermione and Ron; they were going to maintain order on the platform, while he had to inspect each carriage one by one.

Evan opened the doors one by one, and if there were still people inside, he reminded them to leave quickly and remember not to leave anything behind.

If there was no one, he just waved his wand, cast the Revelio Charm and simply checked.

Everyone in the corridor looked at Evan with curiosity and awe. After seeing the Head Boy badge on him, they all leaned to the sides to let him pass. Evan saw many of his familiar classmates.

Some of them greeted him, while others didn’t say a word, with an expression of skepticism and scrutiny on their faces.

In the third carriage, Evan also saw Manfred Gleeson, who had just regained his mobility, and he seemed extremely weak.

The originally pale face had turned bright red, licked by bats, but after seeing Evan, a look of disgust flashed on his face.

Then, noticing the wand in Evan’s hand, he hesitated obviously and left in a hurry.

Evan and the Head Girl were in charge of half of the carriages each. He checked them one by one. Five minutes had passed, and there was no one on the train.

When he opened the door of the penultimate compartment in the third carriage, he saw that there was still a girl inside.

This was a petite girl with a beautiful golden shawl, long eyelashes and a pair of lovely dimples.

She was sitting quietly on the seat by the window of the compartment, looking attentively at the newspaper in her hand, with a thick stack of paper in front of her.

Evan glanced at it. They were all consecutive issues of Hogwarts Magic in a row.

“Hello, the train has arrived at the station!” Evan reminded. The girl seemed to have been fascinated, and she hadn’t even put on her robes yet.

Hearing Evan’s voice, the girl appeared startled and quickly hugged the newspaper to her chest, attempting to conceal it.

She raised her head to look at Evan, her small face turned pink, and there was a hint of childishness and panic in her moving eyes.

If Evan didn’t have a vague memory of this girl, he would have thought she was a first-year. She looked very innocent and pure.

Evan remembered that she seemed to be in the same year as him and was a Slytherin student.

However, he couldn’t remember her name. He had never spoken to her before.

“Evan Mason!” Seeing Evan, she seemed relieved at once.

Then, she thought of something again, her face turned redder, and her body tightened.

“Yeah, it’s me, the train has arrived!” said Evan again, “we should take a carriage to Hogwarts now.”

“Oh, yeah, okay, thank you, I’ll go now.” She hurriedly stood up and opened her trunk, trying to stuff all the newspapers she was carrying. She paused for a while, seeming to know that Evan had noticed some of them. She said somewhat embarrassed, “This was given to me by a friend, and I’m not allowed to read this at home…”
