The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

After finishing dealing with the diary, Link completely relaxed.

This also made his next summer life go by extraordinarily fast, almost in the blink of an eye to the day when the school was about to start.

The night before school started, Mrs. Foley also specially asked Little Button to prepare a sumptuous banquet. And the next day, Mrs. Foley drove Link herself to Station Nine and Three-Quarters in her burgundy roadster.

It was an old Foley tradition, and no matter how busy Mrs. Foley was on this day, she made time to send Link to school.

But unfortunately, Mrs. Foley did not escort Link all the way to the Hogwarts Express like other parents, but after sending Link to the station gate, she walked away.

Link did not have any opinion on this, so he went straight through the magical wall and entered the platform alone.

Compared with when Link came before, there were more people on the platform.

There were reluctant parents and children everywhere, and there were a lot of hooting owls and children crying, which made the whole platform very noisy.

Link was not interested in watching the fun here, so he entered the train directly.

But as soon as he got to the Hufflepuffs' carriage and sat down, a hand clapped on his shoulder.

"Link, did you have a good holiday?"

When Link heard the sound, he saw that Cedric, who had not been masked for a long time, was looking at him with a smile, and that smile was still so sunny and upright.

This made Link in a good mood, and said with a smile:

"It's natural."

Hearing that, Cedric sat on the seat opposite Link, and said with a straight face:

"We have a new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor this year, you know that?"

"Gildrow Lockhart, right?" Link rolled his eyes and said, "He's been so high-profile, it's estimated that most of Hogwarts already know about him."

"Then do you know what kind of person he is?"

Link was a little surprised by Cedric's words, because at the moment Cedric's expression was not that of a curious new professor, but a meaningful feeling.

In addition, as Cedric, he should also know something about Lockhart's secret activities.

So Link thought for a while before trying to understand what the other party meant.

Link laughed and returned Cedric with the same look:

"Ah, of course I know. I know everything about him on the surface and behind his back."

"Really? Then I'm relieved."

Cedric was obviously relieved, and then he took out a slightly old book from his carry-on luggage and pushed it in front of Link and said:

"Since you already know what kind of person Lockhart is, you should know that he can't teach us anything at all. Take this, self-study alone is inefficient, but it's better than nothing. ."

Listening to Cedric's words, Link looked down at the book on the table, and saw that "Intermediate Defense Against the Dark Arts Guide" was clearly written on it.

Not only that, but after Link opened the book and looked it up, he found that it was densely filled with neat notes.

This discovery surprised Link.

Because this kind of old book is in a sense more valuable than the new book, Cedric must have spent a lot of thought to get this thing.

Thinking of this, Link also had some feelings in his heart, and said to Cedric with a smile:

"Thank you so much, Cedric."

"Don't say thank you between us, this is what I should do."

Cedric's smile became brighter, but soon he sat up straight again and said to Link:

"Are you going to choose courses this year? Which ones are you going to choose?"

"There is also a divination class in the protection class of magical creatures, right?

These two are the cheapest. "

"That's true."

When Cedric heard the words, he showed such an expression as expected.

He knew very well that Link was not the kind of monster who desperately pursued all 12 subjects, so it was normal for him to choose.

"Have you bought your textbook yet?" Cedric said again, "Check it out, don't miss it."

As soon as these words came out, the expression on Link's face suddenly became speechless.

He felt that Cedric was really like an old mom now.

However, Link also knew that Cedric himself was such a person, and this was also the performance of Cedric taking care of Link.

So Link didn't continue arguing with Cedric, and directly opened the Unmarked Stretch Spell pocket to check.

However, this inspection turned out to be the real thing.

In the thick stack of textbooks, Link did not find any textbooks for divination classes at all, and instead it turned out to be an "Introduction to Arithmetic Divination".

Link instantly understood what was going on.

It was designated that Little Button confused the book of arithmetic and divination with divination when he bought the book.

"Write a letter." Cedric nodded and said, "Fortunately, I found it early. Before the official start of the class, let my family buy you another copy and send it over."

What Cedric said was indeed the best solution at the moment.

However, upon hearing this, Link shook his head and said:

"Forget it. The person who helped me buy the book was my house-elf."

When Link said this, Cedric immediately understood.

Everyone knows what virtue a house-elf is.

If he really wanted to let the other party know that he made a mistake, even if the Link family didn't pursue it, he would probably kill himself on the spot.

"That's bad enough," Cedric murmured. "What are you going to do now?"

"What should I do? What else can I do? Change it to divination."

Link spread out his hands and said helplessly.

This thing is really bad enough.

You must know that arithmetic and divination is actually a method of using a large amount of data to predict something in the future. It is similar to the big data commonly used in later generations. The most common application scenario is to combine it with stargazing to predict the weather.

Therefore, although it is also called divination, it has absolutely nothing to do with that kind of metaphysical divination. Instead, it is a very 'scientific' knowledge.

But just because of its science, to learn this course well requires the learner to have a very high mathematical talent and to spend a lot of energy.

That is to say, Link's plan to fish for the next year was in vain again.

Thinking of this, Link sighed deeply and complained:

"Sure enough, being a good person means suffering!"

Cedric on the side patted Link's shoulder with a chuckle and said:

"It doesn't matter, I have also taken arithmetic and divination as an elective. If you have any questions, just ask me."

"That's all it takes now."
