Just a few minutes after Hugo and Hermione sat down, the two of them took out a book from their luggage and started reading it. Of course, it was naturally impossible to read a textbook at this time, but something similar to a travel note I bought in Lihen Bookstore before.

To be precise, this should be a set of simple and comprehensive introductions to the wizarding worlds in various European countries. It records the exclusive locations of wizarding worlds in various countries and the specialties of the magic worlds in various countries. It is not so much a popular science booklet as a travel guide. After all, compared with ordinary people, they have Floor Network and Phantom Movement Magic, which are much simpler to travel across countries.

"It's really noisy outside." After turning over more than a dozen pages, Hermione looked helplessly at the entire compartment. After all, this train is an ancient model, and the compartments are all made of thin wooden boards, so the sound insulation effect is not very good. After the wizards got this train, they also focused their magic transformations in other places and did not pay attention to sound insulation.

So after they sat down, they kept echoing all kinds of noises around them, such as the sound of students saying goodbye to their parents when they got on the bus, the sound of running and fighting in the car, or the sound of moving luggage. Although these sounds are not loud, they always feel that their ears are buzzing when reading books.

More importantly, the people in their compartment are half open. After all, this compartment is not full now. According to the etiquette of riding, it is a very rude to close the door now.

"It's indeed a bit noisy." Hugo said with a drop of the book. In fact, although the sounds around him were noisy, they were not so loud that they couldn't read the book. Hermione put down the book and complained about Hugo. She thought she was probably just because she was nervous.

After all, this is the first time they have left home for a long time in 11 years, and they have to go to a place they have never been to or even heard of before. It is very normal to be nervous in this situation.

So Hugo also put down the book, then took out a small bag of egg, custard cookies from his luggage and handed it over. "I think we can eat some cookies now, and read the book after the car drives."

Sure enough, sweets can often soothe nerves. After eating two or three sweet cookies with a large amount of condensed milk and sugar, Hermione seemed much calmer. Just as the two of them began to guess what the magic school would look like while eating the cookies, the door of the half-open cubicle was knocked on.

"You guys are here! I've been looking for you since I got in the car, but fortunately I found you after only one car." After the knocking stopped, the man outside opened the car door, and a girl with short silver-white hair walked in, followed by a blond and blue-eyed girl with twin ponytails. "Can we sit here?"

"Of course, of course no problem. Miss Veneto." It was a very happy thing for Hermione to meet an acquaintance in this car that was almost all strangers, so the man enthusiastically invited Veneto and the girl behind him into the room, and then helped them put their luggage on the shelf with Hugo.

"Who is this lady?" Hermione asked Venetto after everyone sat in the seat, because she saw that the girl and Venetto were very familiar with each other, and she didn't seem to have met just now.

"Oh, she is one of my distant cousins, and she has been with my sister Hood before." Veneto briefly introduced, "Her name is Firefly, Firefly. Rupp."

It is obvious that Fireflies use their ship name as their own name, and then use the last name of the brave captain back then as their last name. However, the names formed in this way do not seem strange.

After all, the scope of naming British people is much larger than that of Hugo's motherland in his previous life. All kinds of things can be used as their own names, such as Sirius, who uses a certain constellation as their own name. Therefore, using fireflies as their names is considered ordinary, and it did not make Hermione feel something was wrong.

Perhaps because they had met before and had left a good impression on both sides, the four people in the car soon chatted together. Even after the train started, they did not interrupt their chat.

"—In fact, I also received a letter from Boothbaton before, maybe because I had been in Italy before." After the train left central London, green fields began to appear on both sides of the railway. At this time, Venetto began to talk about the interesting things he had encountered before in the carriage. "But at that time I had agreed to come to Hogwarts, so I could only send a letter to them to express my regret."

"Bothbarton seems to be a magic school in France and one of the three strongest schools in Europe," Hermione recalled the book he read before, saying, "and the other two are Hogwarts we are going to now and Demstrong, which should be in Nordic or Germany."

"But according to the books I bought before, Hogwarts should be the oldest and best among the three schools." Hermione shrugged at this point. "But considering that all of these books are published in the UK, their fairness is more suspicious-"

Soon everyone focused on discussing magic education in Europe to the Hogwarts School itself, and then naturally discussed the matter about the branch.

"There are many books I read that Gryffindor is the best college in Hogwarts, because Professor Dumbledore, the greatest white wizard of this century, graduated from this academy. But I think the characteristics of this academy do not fully match my personality." Hermione has read a lot of books on the issue of branch offices, and has discussed it with Hugo several times at home. So probably has his own judgment. "But even so, Gryffindor is still attractive to me, but on the other hand, I think Ravenclaw is also good."

"But the problem is that we don't know how the school is branched?" At this time, the firefly spoke. As an extroverted ship girl, she quickly got along with Hermione even after she met her. "I read several books at home, but all of them only said that they were branching through a ceremony, but they did not mention the specific content of the ceremony."

As a ship girl, although Firefly knew through Hugo's admiral network that the branch was based on the branch hat, theoretically she shouldn't know this, so at this time she just told Hermione the definition in the book.

"So, except for Slytherin, we may be assigned to any of the remaining three academies." Hermione shrugged. "After all, we don't have the so-called wizard bloodline-"

After discussing the matter about the branch for a while, the four people in the compartment discussed the issue of homework again. Hermione seemed a little worried that she could not compare with the students from the wizard family in her studies, but Venetto said that according to the books she had read before, the wizards believed that learning magic was too young was not conducive to the children's physical and magic development, so there was no need to worry too much about this.
