The reading list for the new semester has already been sent over.

Starting in the third grade, students can travel to Hogsmeade on weekends, provided they have the signature of their parents or guardians.

This is something to be happy about, but it may be dispensable for some students.

For example, Vincent is currently undergoing final debugging.

Excluding unregistered areas like Knockturn Alley and Spinner's End, the total wizarding population in the British Wizarding World is approaching 30,000.

There were two wizard babies born on July 31, 1980. This day has no special significance except for Prophecy. If we calculate it to be low, it is 1.5 * 365 = 547.5.

It's well known that wizards have long lifespans, despite the decreased birth rate after Voldemort's reign. A conservative estimate would still be around 30,000.

Unlike Gwent, a game primarily for entertainment, mass-produced alchemical products are positioned as everyday items, with a wide variety of functions and types, and are not limited to a single user group.

A production line requires 7 processes and at least 7 robotic arms.

The more types of goods there are, the more quantity is needed.

On August 12, the "calcination" experiment was successfully conducted.

On the 14th, the "dissolution" was successful.

On the 20th, the "separation" is still being verified.

Each of the seven steps in Alchemy is more difficult than the last, and the robotic arm needs countless failures to be debugged perfectly to perform each step.

By the time the mechanical finger joints successfully "separated" the impurities from the iron and copper metals, it was already the 23rd.

With one week left before the start of school, it was completed just the day before the agreed-upon date.

He left the remaining four steps until after school started, and after testing them a few more times, he went to rest.

I get up at dawn, go outside for my usual hour-long workout, and enjoy a traditional English breakfast in a good mood.

While packing up the equipment, the golden retrievers seemed to understand that it was time to say goodbye, and they all gathered around Vincent and sat down.

"Qiuqiu, Andy, Simon, Guodong, Pick..." He read out their names one by one and gently stroked their foreheads.

After feeding them their last treats, I realized they had all gotten quite chubby.

"Okay, I'll come again next year."

The golden retrievers seemed to understand, their wide eyes filled with reluctance.

The same goes for Gu Gu.

Although they were initially "hostile" to each other, they have long since become good friends.

They tilted their heads to indicate they didn't understand owl language, but they all understood what it meant by Gu Gu hooting of its little wings.

As the most distinguished School Board Member the Hogwarts Board of Governors, it can fly over to Burnham Beeches at any time.

Vincent was very pleased.

The Gu Gu is an intelligent Magical Creatures that can befriend ordinary animals means that wizards and Muggle are not necessarily incompatible.

After saying goodbye to Grandpa Wayne, the family of four walked out of the forest and onto the highway.

After returning home, dropping off my luggage, and resting briefly, I drove to Charing Cross Road again.

Leaky Cauldron is still the same as always.

Arthur and Vernon were sitting at the bar, seemingly drinking a familiar-looking drink.

Molly and Petunia aren't here; they must have taken the children into Diagon Alley.

"Eric, would you like a drink?"

Familiar colors, familiar smells.

Judging from Vernon's faintly greenish complexion, this monstrosity could only be Gamp's Vintage Social Brew.

Eric shuddered.

"No, I need to go to Gringotts with the kids first."

Given the Wayne family's current financial situation, there is actually no need for them to exchange pounds for Gold Galleons.

However, as a "thrifty" good father, he absolutely cannot miss out on any opportunities to take advantage of the situation.

Upon arriving at Gringotts, they were greeted by last year's Goblin Bogrod.

He possessed an enthusiasm that other salespeople lacked, and he worked tirelessly throughout the entire process to promote the latest investment products.

Starting from 1000 Galleon, with a minimum annual return of 5%.

Given the Goblin's greedy nature, it would be strange if they didn't learn Muggle financial knowledge after the lords' final verdict.

Seeing that his voice was almost hoarse from talking, Vincent reluctantly threw in 1,000 Galleon to test the waters.

Bogrod was not disappointed; on the contrary, he became even more enthusiastic. "Mr. Wayne, we can accept goods as collateral, converted into Gold Galleons at the current market price..."

So that's what they were planning.

Everyone knows that Nicolas Flamel's Vault No. 7 must contain a large number of precious Alchemical Item, some of which have not been seen for hundreds of years.

The Goblin cherish treasures like their own lives, and they've probably been wanting to see them for a long time.

Unfortunately, they ran into Vincent, who was stubborn and particularly good at playing dumb.

"Mr. Bogrod, I will seriously consider your investment plan."

"Ah... okay."

Eric and Evelyn were trying not to laugh the whole time.

The cunning Goblin are cunning, and their sons are even more so.

Do you want to play like a child?

Dream on!

After carefully collecting the 100 Gold Galleons from the £500 exchange, the Wayne family ran into Granger and Greengrass as they walked toward the gate, just as they were coming up from the underground vault.

The two little witches of the same grade have both grown taller, and their clothes and appearances are quite different.

Hermione's new hairstyle was probably designed in France; it looks much smoother overall, and she seems much more confident than before.

Daphne became much more cheerful, and the dress she was wearing was in a bright, warm color.

Astoria was dressed like a princess as usual.

She enrolled in school this year, and after only a few words, all three sets of parents decided to go with her.

The first place to go is, of course, the wand shop.

Ollivander's gold signboard is still there, but there are a few more pieces of gold paint peeling off than two years ago.

"Let me think—" Ollivander's silvery-white eyes scanned Vincent.

"Fifteen inches long, alder wood, Phoenix Feather core, very hard."

Then his gaze fell on Hermione.

"Miss Granger, your wand should be made of Vine Wood, with a core of Dragon Heartstring, and be Platform Nine and Three-Quarters inches long."

Then they moved to Daphne's side.

"Miss Greengrass, if I remember correctly, your wand is made of cedar, with Unicorn Tail Hair core, ten inches long, and exceptionally strong."

Vincent and Hermione could be considered coincidences, but Daphne's case only proves that he really didn't need to touch it; he remembered which young wizard bought his work.

With such passion for making canes, he truly deserves to be one of the three great cane makers in Europe.

Seeing such a professional level, Astoria felt reassured and picked up the first wand to try.

...10 and 1/5 inch long, acacia wood, the Dragon Heartstring.

The staff trembled slightly, then burst forth with brilliant sparks from its tip.

Oh! It seems to really like you!

Vincent's lips twitched violently.

"Um, how many wands did you try the year before last?" he asked the two little witches in a low voice.

Hermione and Daphne replied without hesitation:

"Once."

"I did it twice."

"Ah!?"

He took out his Alder Wand, and as he looked at it, his expression turned horrified.

Two years ago, Ollivander called him a "picky guest," but until just now he thought it was just the little wizard's rhetoric.

But he also finds it easy to use the Night Wraith's Ebony wand; it's impossible that he just happened to find two wands that suit him.

"May I try out your wands?"

Hermione and Daphne handed over their wands, looking puzzled.

Vincent first picked up the Vine Wood Wand and recited a simple Levitation Charm, and the empty cardboard box in front of him successfully floated up.

Then, switching to a cedarwood wand works just as well, the only difference being that it's a fraction of a second slower.

Ollivander had just collected the seven Gold Galleons, naturally witnessed this incredible scene.

He strode over to Vincent, his expression shifting from confusion to silence, before finally breaking into a knowing smile.

"Mr. Wayne, I told you you would achieve great things in this world with 'her', and it seems you are mentally prepared."

Once a wand has chosen its master, it becomes unique.

For example, Charlie's dream changed, and as a result, the wand was no longer suitable.

But there are always some special cases where the changes make them compatible with a wider range of wands.

Ollivander said with a nostalgic expression, "My father always said that Mr. Dumbledore was the most extraordinary wizard he had ever met."

He looked at Vincent with burning eyes.

"Mr. Wayne, some wizards are destined to achieve great things, and I think you are one of them."
