Things soon became clear.

In the final analysis, the reason why these Slytherins are so enthusiastic is because of the [Merlin Order of Merlin Third Class Medal].

Because I had been staying in Hogwarts, the information I could receive from the outside world was quite limited.

So everyone still has no real idea of ​​how powerful John’s so-called [Order of Merlin, Third Class] is.

I just know that this is an amazing achievement.

But after returning home, the feeling was completely different.

Because, after such a long period of fermentation, John's recipe published together with the paper has spread throughout the magical world of the United States.

Nowadays, almost every wizarding family will try this new magical cuisine in their spare time.

It was precisely because of such a huge response that the Ministry of Magic awarded John the [Medal of Merlin, Third Class].

Throughout the summer vacation, the parents of these little Slytherins had to tell their children almost every day how great John was, and asked them to have a good relationship with John and learn more from him.

As time went on, these little Slytherins naturally understood how powerful John was and how great his future was.

'Fortunately we started early!'

After figuring out what was going on, Lucius sighed in his heart.

There are still many smart people in this world.

As soon as John came to prominence, speculators came.

This is also one of Slytherin's traditions.

But now, the Malfoy family is ahead of everyone!

Thinking like this, Lucius patted John on the shoulder with a sincere expression and said:

"John, please help Draco more in school."

"Draco is my friend."

John said with a smile.

Lucius nodded, with a satisfied smile on his face.

A few people exchanged some pleasantries, and finally, just before the train was about to start, John, Draco and others boarded the Hogwarts Express surrounded by a group of Slytherins.

"John, let's go find Senior Sister Taylor. She has already reserved a box for us."

Draco said impatiently.

John shook his head and said:

"You guys go over first, I have to go find Michelle."

As he spoke, John walked towards the back of the train.

This made all the Slytherins feel a little embarrassed.

Although the Hogwarts Express does not specifically allocate carriages according to the four major colleges, many students will still spontaneously occupy areas and positions according to the colleges and dormitories.

And what John is going to now is the territory of Gryffindors.

Is it really appropriate for this whole bunch of Slytherins to just go through this?

The Slytherins looked at each other, and after a while they heard Draco shouting excitedly:

"Go! Why not go! We should go there and let the stupid lions of Gryffindor see our majesty!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone woke up and hurriedly followed John's pace.

As a result, a very magical scene appeared on the Hogwarts Express - a group of Slytherins, led by John, were rushing towards the Gryffindor area with great pride.

Draco was especially arrogant.

He stood proudly beside John, looking even more proud than John.

This made the Gryffindors nervous.

Many senior Gryffindor students had gathered together early, watching John and his group warily.

The Slytherins didn't show any weakness and just remained in a stalemate with Gryffindor.

During the confrontation between the two parties, John walked into the box of Michelle and others alone.

This private room is extremely lively.

Piles of various snacks filled the table in the center of the box.

Michelle and Ginny were sitting on opposite sides of the table. Ginny was holding a chocolate frog in her hand and talking happily about how Harry was doing.

And Michelle moved her bow left and right, grabbing the snacks on the table and spinning them wildly, nodding her head from time to time to deal with Ginny.

At this time, she naturally saw John.

She stretched her neck, swallowed the food in her mouth, and then shouted and threw herself into John's arms.

"John! I miss you so much!"

As Michelle spoke, she rubbed her head against John.

She had eaten her mouth full before, but now she rubbed it all on John.

This made John frown subconsciously.

But after hearing Michelle's words, his face suddenly turned into a judo:

"Okay, okay, I miss you too, get up quickly."

Michelle was still a little reluctant to let go, and stayed in John's arms for a long time before reluctantly getting up and pulling John to sit down next to her.

"I'm telling you, John, I had a lot of fun at Hermione's house! Hermione's dad is a dentist. He took us to visit the clinic, go to the amusement park, watch movies, and take us there every day.

Eat delicious food, such as duck confit, pan-fried duck breast, stewed beef, pan-fried scallops, snails, truffles, foie gras..."

Listening to Michelle telling him the names of dishes all the time, John also had a smile on his face.

He could see that Michelle was very happy living at Hermione's house.

The Granger family also treats Michelle sincerely.

You can tell just by looking at the names of the dishes.

It's all French food, and some of the ingredients are quite expensive.

Michelle has lived in St. Brelade since she was a child. After being brought out by John, she came into contact with some magical food. As for the Western-style high-end cuisine in the orthodox Muggle society, she has never seen it before.

.

"Then we have to thank you very much." John sighed.

"Of course!" Michelle nodded repeatedly, "I just held their hands and said thank you for a long time outside!"

John shook his head and said nothing.

That's not what he meant when he said thank you.

The reason why Mr. and Mrs. Granger are so enthusiastic is ultimately because they are worried about their daughter's situation at Hogwarts.

So if you want to thank the other person, all you have to do is take care of Hermione.

Michelle still didn't understand this meaning.

But it doesn't matter, as long as he understands, he will help Michelle return the favor.

While thinking this, John found Ginny staring at him curiously.

Seeing that John discovered it, he was not shy, but smiled at John.

John subconsciously glanced at her suitcase and said with a smile:

"I see you again, Ginny. You are going to Hogwarts soon. How do you feel now?"

“Very good!”

Ginny replied, then changed the subject, "I heard Ron say that you hold parties every week at the hunting ground. Is this true?"

How could John not understand the meaning of Ginny's words? He raised his eyebrows and said:

"You can also come and join."

"Really? Um...I mean, isn't this bad?"

"There's nothing wrong with it," John waved his hand, "Harry will come when the time comes, and I will find a way to arrange for him to sit next to you."

"ah--"

Ginny screamed, a blush spreading from her cheeks to her ears in an instant.

John burst into laughter watching this scene.

Then a few people chatted for a while, until the sky turned dark and the prefects started going from box to box to remind everyone that it was time to change their school uniforms.

At this moment, the box door was pushed open again.

"Have any of you... seen Harry and Ron?"

Hermione gasped, "It's over now! They seem... they seem to have missed the train!"
