Chapter 106 Parent-child time

Attending classes is not the right way, implementing the annual plan is the truth.

It’s not that I can’t afford to stay in Hogwarts, but the Hog’s Head Inn is more cost-effective.

The diligent worker Jian Yu travels through the secret passages of the Room of Requirement and the Hog's Head Bar.

She is working hard to complete her annual KPL.

For example, she successfully implemented the second plan and united external resources of the school such as Aberforth. After hearing about her small business, the first heir to the guardianship built a workshop for her specifically for the production of modified game consoles.

It is said that Aberforth has helped train Dobby to become a first-class employee.

And this Saturday is the day when the first batch of game consoles will be shipped from the factory.

"Finally here!" Aberforth held her hand to help her get out of Ariana's painting, and handed her a cloth bag. "This thing is not easy to modify. The magic channel involves some alchemy content."

Jian Yu opened the cloth bag and found fifteen or sixteen game consoles inside, just enough to meet the supply she had previously ordered, with one or two left over.

"But the design you gave me is very detailed. I'm sure Mr. and Mrs. Flamel drew it very carefully." Aberforth waved his hands, very proud, and his beard curled up slightly. "I succeeded after three or four attempts."

Jian Yu was led up the stairs by him, and she discovered that the Pig's Head Bar had been expanded and had an extra floor.

Before she could see the whole picture here, a voice came from the air:

"Dobby at your service, Miss Jane!"

The elf with eyes as big as tennis balls screamed and Apparated in front of her, tears in his eyes from excitement:

"Oh - great Miss Jane, who provided Dobby with such a nice place and such a nice job -"

Jian Yu handed it ten pairs of socks as employee benefits.

Dobby looked so happy that he almost fainted. He hugged his socks and cried:

"Gifts! Socks! No one ever thought of giving Dobby a present!"

It began to put the socks on itself, four on each foot, and looked like it wanted to cover its ears and arms with socks as well.

"I quite like this elf." Aberforth praised this excellent employee to her, "He is very good at disassembling and reassembling parts. We have a good cooperation... and my Hog's Head Pub is now clean."

Dobby began to bang his head against the wall, screaming:

"Oh - Miss Jane's guardian praised Dobby! Dobby actually received praise from such a respected wizard!"

It has to be said that it has mastered the art of speaking without any guidance.

Hearing words like "guardian" and "respected wizard", Aberforth smiled with satisfaction, and his wrinkles smoothed out.

He explained in detail to Jian Yu the principles of the magic channels in the game console, as well as the magic props and spells used to transform the game content.

The scene was full of joy and the air was filled with peace.

But when they were halfway through their conversation, Fox came in through the window with a cry and threw himself into Jian Yu's arms.

Aberforth's face darkened.

"Albus must have noticed you weren't at school!" he muttered, his temper rising again. "Why didn't he just chain you up after such a short while?"

"You should go back first!" He pushed Jian Yu to the mural on the second floor in a hurry. "If he finds you this time, it will be difficult for you to come through this secret passage again in the future!"

Some people are happy, while others are worried and anxious.

After finally making it to the weekend, Dumbledore, who was far away in Hogwarts, felt that this was a great time to spend with his children.

During the summer vacation, first Sirius escaped from prison, then Fudge sent Dementors into the campus, and he was also thinking about tracking Voldemort's Horcruxes, which kept him busy.

There is not even time to spend with the kids.

Although he had asked several professors he trusted, such as the newly appointed Lu Ping, to pay more attention to Jian Yu's physical and mental health, and had received positive comments yesterday that "Miss Jian is helpful, intelligent and kind", he still felt a little uneasy.

Because she hasn't called the principal's office for a week!

And his uneasy premonition finally came true on Saturday!

When he sent Fox, who was unhappy about not having seen Jian Yu for too long, to summon her, his phoenix never returned!

Sensing something was wrong, Dumbledore immediately went to the door of the Slytherin common room. After receiving curious looks from the little snakes, he got the answer that Jian Yu was not in the dormitory.

At this time he had not realized that the child was missing, and thought that she was playing in some corner with her ghost friends or the magical animals raised by Hagrid.

But Fox, who went to deliver the letter, never came back!

Would he run face to face with the Dementors outside the school?

Dumbledore was so anxious that he went to every entrance of the school and used the Patronus to kill the Dementors.

Nothing was found.

I’m afraid the child is not in school anymore!

He was so concerned that he remembered his authority as the principal and confirmed that Jian Yu had indeed left the campus!

Fortunately, he did not forget the secret passage connecting the Room of Requirement and the Hog's Head Inn, and he felt relieved after thinking about it.

After all, the Hog's Head Inn with Aberforth around is in some sense as safe as Hogwarts.

But then a wave of anger surged up in my heart again.

School has already started, but you still want to take Jian Yu out of school——

Aberforth is such a good brother to him!

After pacing and thinking for half an hour, he returned to the principal's office and saw Jian Yu holding Fox.

She was sitting comfortably in a chair, and it was obvious that she had already said the slogan and entered the room with ease before, and took his teapot to make tea and eat snacks, as if this was her own home.

But Dumbledore didn't think there was anything wrong.

"Jade, eat more!" he said lovingly, pulling out piles of candy he had bought at Honeydukes over the holidays. "I'm sorry I had to leave you in the Leaky Cauldron... so much went on over the holidays, and you've lost weight."

Jian Yu looked down at his arms and legs and found that they had become round.

Then there was a lot of caring, from the Dementors encountered on the train to the furry little secrets of individual professors...

"You found it, didn't you?" Dumbledore smiled, as if he was proud of her spirit of exploration. "With your keenness, I think so. Severus said that you have mastered the preparation of wolfsbane potion."

"The professors actually know about this...but I want you to keep it a secret from the students."

"As long as he takes the wolfsbane potion every month, nothing will happen... His defense against the dark arts is top-notch."

Jian Yu agreed, and Dumbledore looked even happier. He took out a package from the drawer:

"Mr. and Mrs. Flamel are very fond of you, and they have sent you packages and presents again."

"By the way, Nico suggested that I sign you up for an elective course on ancient runes to lay the foundation for your future study of alchemy."

Watching her elective courses increase from 2 to 4, Jian Yu felt like crying but had no tears.

Why did the off-campus resources she united with also stab her in the back?

Just put pressure on her to study a second foreign language?

Although alchemy did help her improve her console to some extent...

But will she have time to sleep with 4 classes?

"No, I don't think I need so many classes—"

She strongly objected, claiming that she had checked her course schedule and that choosing four courses would cause a time conflict.

But Dumbledore shook his head and smiled:

"Don't worry. I don't plan on asking you to take too many classes. That would be too stressful."

"You just need to come to the principal's office every Saturday afternoon, and I will tutor you in this course - and I won't give you any homework."

He wished he could arrange arithmetic divination for her as well!

As long as the kids are busy enough, she won’t run around!

Besides, we have some weekend family time! She won't go to the Hog's Head Inn anymore!

The plan worked!
