"Guests, if you find any trace of Sirius Black, please report it to the Ministry of Magic! We at Gringotts have added an additional reward of 10,000 Galleons to the original reward! And this reward,

The intelligence provider also has a share!"

Amid the instructions from the subdued goblin, John and others walked out of Gringotts.

John was in a very good mood.

He really didn't expect that the goblins would pin all the attacks he and Michael caused on Sirius.

But this is pretty good.

By turning around and catching Sirius, he would not only be able to extract the wealth from the Black family, but he might even be able to hand Sirius over to the Ministry of Magic in exchange for the high bounty offered by the Ministry of Magic and Gringotts.

Delightful!

Compared with John, Hermione was a little uneasy.

Several times, she even almost fell down because she didn't look at the road.

"Hermione, what's wrong with you?"

Michelle said with concern.

Harry also cast a concerned look at him.

But Hermione just shook her head.

Seeing this, John smiled slightly and said:

"Actually, you don't have to worry. Sirius Black is unlikely to attack Muggles again. He is currently wanted by the Ministry of Magic."

Hermione looked at John with some surprise, her mind was completely read by John!

"Actually... I think so too. But I'm still a little worried. After all, even Muggle TV is reporting on Black's wanted order. Although they didn't explicitly say that Black is a magical criminal, I think that only the most...

Only vicious criminals are wanted by both the wizarding and Muggle worlds!"

Hermione sighed, "I want to thank you again, John. If you hadn't given us a 'Guardian Bell', I would have been even more worried."

"Remember what I said at the beginning?" John shook his head and said, "Compared to the help you gave Michelle, this little thing is nothing."

Hermione agreed with a choked voice.

Harry next to him saw this and comforted him:

"Don't worry, Hermione, nothing will happen to your parents. Of course, nothing will happen to us either. After all, Hogwarts is the safest place in the entire wizarding world. No matter how evil Sirius Black is,

He would never dare to go to Hogwarts!"

As soon as this was said, Hermione nodded in agreement.

Michelle also thought Harry was right, and laughed and patted his back, making Harry grin in pain.

Among the four people, only John had a strange expression.

He looked at Harry with a half-smile, looking forward to Harry's expression when Sirius actually showed up at Hogwarts.

While they were talking, everyone had returned to the bustling crowd in Diagon Alley.

They first went to Slug's Giggs' Pharmacy to add a few new materials handling tools, and since their old uniforms were several inches too short for their limbs, they also went to Madam Malkin's Robe Shop.

'Bought some new robes.

Of course, the most important thing is the new textbook.

In addition to the seven required courses in their third year, Hogwarts students are required to take at least two elective courses from Divination, Arithmancy, Ancient Runes, Care of Magical Creatures and Muggle Studies.

So they need to purchase additional textbooks for new elective courses.

Hermione was obviously very interested in this topic. As soon as John raised his head, she asked eagerly:

"John, what classes did you take?"

"Protection of magical animals and ancient runes." John said.

Hermione blinked and waited for a long time. Seeing that John really had no intention of continuing, she said in disbelief:

"You only chose two elective courses?! I thought you would choose all five elective courses like me! Don't you know? If you can graduate with excellent scores in twelve NEWT subjects, you will be It will be of great benefit to your future!"

"Oh, of course I know."

John shrugged his shoulders and said, "But the so-called twelve NEWTs with perfect A's don't mean much to me.

And I don’t have enough time. Rather than studying various subjects, I would rather devote more time to potions and spells.”

"Forehead……"

Hermione was speechless.

Getting straight A's in all twelve NEWT subjects is a remarkable academic achievement. As long as you can obtain this achievement, you don't have to worry about finding a good job no matter where you go after graduation.

All employers, including the Ministry of Magic, will compete to hire you and will train you as a seed player.

This is of great benefit to ordinary students.

But it was of no use to John.

After all, he is the youngest recipient of the 'Order of Merlin, Third Class' in the magic world of the Republic of China.

Compared with this honor, having all twelve NEWTs with perfect A’s is simply not worth mentioning.

Thinking of this, Hermione seemed to be hit, and her expression suddenly became depressed.

Not only Hermione, but Harry also slightly distanced himself from John and Hermione, shrinking back desperately in an attempt to minimize his presence.

Like John, he only took two elective courses.

But unlike John's reason, the reason why he only chose two courses was simply to be lazy.

This made him feel ashamed.

Fortunately, this feeling did not last long.

Because almost at the next moment, Michelle shouted:

"Ah! What is this?"

Everyone heard the news and went out, only to see that Flourishes and Blotts Bookstore had arrived.

It's just not the same as when I came before.

Usually, what is usually displayed in the window of a bookstore is a spell book as big as a floor tile with golden relief.

But now, these books are all gone.

Instead, there was a large iron cage, which contained about a hundred book-like monsters with sharp teeth. They were furiously wrestling with each other, biting and fighting with a belligerent attitude, and the broken pages were flying everywhere.

Michelle was very interested in these things and almost pressed her face against the display window.

"Michelle, you'd better stay away from those things!"

Harry said anxiously, "Those are the Monster Books of Monsters. They are very dangerous! The manager of Flourish and Blotts Bookstore said that he was bitten by them five times in one morning!"

"Eleven times."

The manager of Flourish and Blotts Bookstore walked out of the store as he spoke.

"What did you say?" Harry asked confused.

"I mean, now that record has been broken."

The manager raised his swollen hands full of bite marks and said, "Just this morning, I was bitten eleven times! It's best not to let me know who set this kind of book as a textbook, otherwise I will I have to send him a howling letter!"

After talking about it, the manager's expression gradually became more ferocious.

Fortunately, the manager's self-control is quite strong.

After releasing his emotions for a while, the manager forced out a smile that was uglier than crying and said:

"So, do you guys also want to buy this book?"

"Of course! I want to buy three copies!" Michelle raised her three fingers and said loudly, "One is for class, and two is for making them fight each other!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Michelle with dull expressions.

Michelle frowned and said:

"What's wrong? Don't you think it's fun to watch them fight?"

Everyone shook their heads, and the manager almost cried.

"Maybe I should resign."

As he spoke, he dejectedly put on a pair of thick gloves, picked up a thick, knotted cane, and walked towards the iron cage containing the "Monster Book of Monsters".

"Wait a minute," John interrupted, "Maybe you should try to stroke them."

The manager looked at him again with a puzzled face.

"Just like petting dogs, rub their spines," John continued. "That might work."

"Well, I hope this helps."

With a sad face, the manager took out a copy of "The Monster Book of Monsters" from the cage, and then lightly scratched the furry spines with two fingers.
