017 End of semester where is your head?

Everything in the funeral returned to track, a dark cloud covered the sun, and the emcee was finally able to step onto the podium, but Lawrence did not hear what he said. After the Lemay couple was buried, the magic ministers of the two countries began to transfer the property of the will, and Lawrence also got the double-sided mirror in an ancient wooden box.

Lawrence opened the box, and there were two identical mirrors and two small black leather bags lying inside. The leather bag was cast with a traceless stretching spell. This was obviously a design that made it easy for users to carry the mirror. Lawrence felt the strange resonance exuded by the two mirrors.

"It's a magical thing, right?" said Dumbledore. "It's a pity that the main materials made have disappeared in the last century."

"A very precious item," said Lawrence, covering the box, "It's a pity that I haven't had the chance to use it yet."

"It's hard to say," Dunbulido blinked, "Miss Dragul seems to be curious about you."

Lawrence shrugged, and a riot came not far from the venue, and several people were red-faced and arguing about something, Connelly. Faugi looked helpless, and so was the French Minister of Magic beside him.

"Oh," Dumblido looked at that and shook his head, "It's really--"

"What's wrong with them?" Lawrence asked in confusion.

"People rumored that Nico had a secret estate in Devon, England, where he has lived in recent years," Dumblido explained. "They said Nico kept the Philosopher's Stone there. Although the top officials in the magic world knew that the truth about the Philosopher's Stone was so cruel, there were still people who were pursuing that kind of thing."

"It seems that the manor is not mentioned in the will?" Lawrence asked, "Is there really a manor?"

"Yes, there are, but some wills Nico does not want to be made public, and even the Ministry of Magic did not inform you," Dumbully replied. "In fact, the transfer of the wizard's legacy only requires a third wizard to be notarized, but now almost all the Ministry of Magic serves as the third party to witness this. Do you know the reason?"

"The Act of Justice Confiscation gives the magical departments of various countries the legacy of wizards to prevent the transmission of black magical items." Lawrence replied,

"Totally correct," Dumbledore nodded, "Nicole's will did not appear, which disappointed those who were interested."

"Do you know who Mr. Nico gave that manor to?" Lawrence asked curiously.

"About this-" Dumbredo smiled meaningfully, but did not answer, "Do you want to take this opportunity to visit France?"

"Uh--No."

"So please grab my left hand, and long distances across the border may feel uncomfortable."

Lawrence took Dunbulido's left hand, and then Dunbulido seemed to say something, but Lawrence couldn't hear clearly. It was pitch black all around, and invisible force squeezed from all directions. Lawrence gasped heavily. He was very glad that he didn't eat too much breakfast today.

"Is that okay?" asked Dumbledore,

"It's OK, the distance is a bit too long." Lawrence shook his head and wanted to wake himself up. He found that they returned to Hogsmeade Village, where Hogwarts was not far away. (Note 1)

"It's really a bit troublesome if I didn't bring my luggage, right?" Dumblido said happily, "Bang" a flash of fire, Fox appeared with Lawrence's luggage.

"Where do you want me to send you there?" asked Dumbledore,

"Just Diagon Alley," Lawrence replied, "I think I don't have to go back to the orphanage?"

Dunbulido stared at him, from his expression, Lawrence had no idea what he was thinking,

"Okay," Dumblido agreed, "The Ministry of Magic will help young wizards like you get out of the Muggle society, and they will help you complete the relevant procedures." (Note 2)

Lawrence once again took Dunbulido's left hand, and they disappeared from the spot. After a brief darkness, Dunbulido took Lawrence to the Broken Cauldron Bar.

"The International Wizards Alliance will help you open a small vault in Gringott," Dumbredo told Lawrence. "There should be a letter from an owl to notify you soon."

"Okay, sir, thank you to Professor McGonagall for me," said Lawrence.

"I think it would be better if you send her a letter to her yourself. Go and buy an owl." Dumblido smiled, his figure disappeared into the air, leaving only the last sentence, "So, see you later after the summer vacation."

"Oh! Lawrence," Boss Tom heard the voice and walked out from behind the bar. "I'm so happy to see you. It's summer vacation, right?"

"You may not know yet, right? I want to congratulate you first," Tom smiled. "There is a rumor that you have received a scholarship from the International Wizards Alliance."

"Uh--Thank you, Professor Dunbulido has mentioned it to me." Lawrence replied, he was speechless. Why did everyone know this more than himself? Tom took his luggage,

"I think you don't need to work this summer, right?" Tom asked,

"Should it be?" Lawrence was a little uncertain. He had no idea how much the so-called scholarship was, but since Dumblido said he didn't need it, it should be that he really didn't need it.

"Then enjoy the summer vacation," Tom said, and he led Lawrence to Room 7. "When are you going to live?"

"I don't know," Lawrence said inconclusively, "Maybe Fred and George will invite me to their house?"

"It's okay, I hope you'll have a happier time," Tom said with a smile, and he bowed and exited the room. "Don't be polite if you need anything."

Lawrence stayed in the Break Cauldron Bar for two weeks, and he welcomed three owls, one of whom was energetic, brought a letter with a Gringott key, in addition to a scholarship that would be provided fixedly to his graduation, there were some additional bonuses, rewarding some of the spells he invented,

"There are still a lot of bonus..." Lawrence was a little surprised.

The owl of the Weasley family - Errol also brought a letter from Fred and George, indicating that Mr. Weasley won the grand prize from the Prophet Daily. This year, their family will go to Egypt for vacation, so they cannot entertain Lawrence at their house.

"It's great, there must be many interesting places in Egypt," Lawrence expressed his envy. "I really want to learn from ancient wizards walking in the wilderness and experience the different magical powers of different countries."

Another handsome owl brought Hogwarts' letter, in addition to the usual book list, it also came with a badge, which he had seen on Charlie and Percy, (Note 3)

"The senior badge?" Lawrence looked at the letter "P" on the badge, revealing a subtle expression. He could almost imagine how the twins who heard the news would tease him. He played with the shiny badge, pondered for a moment and began to write.

Lawrence wrote a list of special herbs unique to Egypt, reminding the twins to remember to find a way to smuggle the herbs back while having fun. He handed the letter to Errol, let it rest and send the letter to the twins, and then lay bored on the quilt.

Since the funeral of the Lemay couple, he has been a little unhappy, and the map production method has been cracked by him, which has made him seem to be idle at this time. Now the only thing he is interested in is probably going to the screaming house to walk around. There have been too many things last year and there has been no free time. He is also very curious about the deeds of these four seniors.

"Go to buy a pet tomorrow," Lawrence thought, "and send a letter to thank Professor McGonagall for your help."

Author's words: There are two versions of this article. After thinking about it carefully, I decided to slow down. In fact, it was just a matter of jumping the plot. I just don't know if there is the perseverance to write about it and then...?

Then please read the following text. I don’t like to issue announcements. I already said in the last article that I will not update yesterday.

Note 1: The location of the Burrow seems to be in Devon. Lawrence originally lived in an orphanage in the Islinton district of Greater London. Mr. Weasley took Lawrence to move away from not as far away as Britain and France.

Note 2: "Like you" refers to the orphan wizard born by a Muggle.

Note 3: The Weasley family has four senior chiefs, Bill, Charlie, Percy, Ron, and Bill graduated before Lawrence and the twins entered school. The incident of Ron as chief has not yet happened, so Lawrence has only seen the badges of Charlie and Percy.
