Chapter 542 A Grade?!!
At Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, everyone hugged and said their goodbyes one after another.
When Darren hugged Sirius, he quietly took out a necklace and tucked it into the big black dog's paw. Sirius Black looked at him in astonishment.
Darren said a little awkwardly, "I heard Hermione say the other day that you feel very lonely staying at home alone… so I made this again during this time.
Be careful with it—if it breaks again, I really won't have the materials to remake it.
Also, with this, you can transform into all kinds of cats. Well, I designed it based on Lez's image.
Maybe you can sneak into Hogwarts—cough, don't say it, I know Headmaster Dumbledore won't let you out."

Darren froze for a moment.
He hadn't expected that Mrs. Weasley and the others, who were all busy hugging each other, would notice him and Black.
Turns out… there were actually quite a lot of people staring at them. "Darren! The train is about to leave!"
Hermione exclaimed. Darren hugged Mrs. Weasley again, then rushed onto the train at the last second. "You scared me, Darren. I just saw you give him a necklace. You… you didn't fix that necklace again, did you?"
Hermione asked sharply. Darren put on a weak expression and stammered, "No… I haven't fixed it yet." Hermione fell silent for a moment, seemingly at a loss for words, and finally changed the topic.
"Then Ron and I need to go to the prefects' compartment. You and Harry go find a compartment. We'll be back in a bit." Hermione said softly.
Ron instantly became a little flustered. He looked at Harry, then at Darren, finally realizing how unbelievable it was that he had actually become a prefect.
Darren didn't care about Ron's expression. He nodded obediently and pulled Harry along to look for a compartment.
Harry sighed gloomily behind him, but Darren ignored it. He found an empty compartment, pulled Harry inside, put the luggage away, and then looked at him.
"Oh, brother, are you angry that Ron became a prefect?" Darren asked with a smile. Harry immediately became embarrassed. He didn't want Darren to see through his thoughts.
He wanted Darren to admire him all the time. "Oh, brother, this doesn't affect my admiration for you at all.
You're clearly jealous, but you didn't quarrel with him directly like he did in fourth year, right? Anyway, I think you're much better than him. You're the brother I admire the most."

Harry was clearly delighted and moved, his mood instantly lifted. Just as he was about to say more, the compartment door slid open. It was Ginny.
"Darren, Harry, it's you! Great, the other compartments are full!" "Come in." Darren helped Ginny pull in her suitcase, and she sat down next to him with a smile.
Harry suddenly felt a bit redundant. Fortunately, the door slid open again—it was Neville. "The other compartments are full…" Neville said awkwardly.
Harry made room for him. But that was only the beginning. Luna also came in. Because Darren and Voldemort had almost died again, Luna had been sent home by Dumbledore.
He thought that once school started, Luna could communicate with Darren, and summer would be over anyway.
After all, Hermione and Ginny were always arguing with her, and many in the Order of the Phoenix thought Luna wasn't very useful, making it inconvenient for her to stay there. Luna was holding a magazine, her face buried in it as she laughed loudly.
Then she noticed Darren. She happily walked over and said, "Oh, Darren, I've found that there are far fewer harassers around you now. You look very happy!"
"Thank you. It's because of you that I was able to come out," Darren said gratefully. Ginny, however, said angrily, "She didn't cure you, did she?" "Darren's condition is serious and couldn't be fixed all at once.
I wanted to do a second or third treatment, but you wouldn't let me," Luna retorted angrily. Ginny exploded. "Hermione and I both think you're completely unreliable.
You're a liar. Dumbledore has already found another psychologist, and sooner or later everyone will see your true face!" "I look forward to that day," Luna replied calmly.
She glanced at Ginny, then turned her head and smiled at Darren, as if he were something amusing. Darren looked back at her strangely. Then the system prompt sounded.
[Ding, do you want to continue receiving hypnosis?]
Forget it.
Darren rejected Luna's hypnosis and looked away. "Your will is very strong. It seems unlikely that I'll be able to hypnotize you suddenly next time," Luna said disappointedly, sitting down on the other side of Darren and resuming her reading. The train rumbled forward.
Darren originally wanted to talk to the two girls, but after noticing the sparks of anger in their first exchanged glances, he immediately shut his mouth, yawned, closed his eyes, and pretended to sleep. Somehow, pretending turned into actually falling asleep.
When he woke up, it was Ron's voice that roused him. "Malfoy actually became a prefect, and the girl next to him is Kassandra. I can't believe we're in the same year as him!" Ron complained.
Ginny glared at him and whispered, "Can you sit down and stop talking? Darren is sleeping." Bang. The compartment door was suddenly shoved open.
Ginny almost exploded, subconsciously thinking Ron had done it. Just as she was about to glare at him, she realized it was Draco Malfoy. Crabbe and Goyle stood behind him.
Malfoy said loudly, "I just heard someone say that Harry Potter is in this compartment. I also heard that he didn't become a prefect. How pleasant. Perhaps Dumbledore has finally given up on his scar and chosen someone else.
Potter, on the first day of school, in your first compartment of the year, you should choose my friendship.
Instead of choosing Weasley, choose me. After all, this poor fellow doesn't even have the position of prefect."
"My brother has always known how to choose friends. Ron is the most loyal friend. If you befriend my brother, maybe you'll argue with him many times out of jealousy."
