The Train Finally Arrived

The exam results came out the day before summer vacation.

No matter where you are, when exam results are released, it's always a mix of joy and sorrow.

Those who did well on the exam would simply put their report card inside their outer robe so that it would be seen casually by others, allowing them to humbly say, "I didn't do well on the exam."

Those who didn't do well on the test simply stuffed their report cards into their Suitcase, hoping their parents wouldn't find out.

To Harry and Ron's disbelief, they actually did quite well on their tests, except for Potions, where they scored lower, but they still passed.

They were so happy they jumped for joy, haphazardly stuffed their luggage into their suitcases, and headed excitedly towards Hogsmeade Station.

They chatted idly along the way.

"I can't believe I did so well on the test this time!"

"This is all thanks to Hermione for highlighting the key points for the exam. But where is she? She's disappeared again!"

"Of course they went to find Silan. I dare say, as long as we find Silan, we will definitely find her."

When the two of them arrived at the station, they found Hermione standing next to Silan, whispering something to him.

They could only hear it clearly when they got closer.

"I really regret it. When I took the Transfiguration test, I should have lowered the wand by two angles to let the Spells work its magic more effectively. That would have made the box's pattern even more intricate..."

Harry and Ron exchanged a glance, both thinking: What on earth is this guy talking about?

On this wonderful day when the holiday has just begun, discussing exam results?

"Come on, you're already number one in Gryffindor, okay?" Ron said, somewhat annoyed.

Seeing that it was the two of them, Hermione simply shook her head, sighed, and said nothing.

Fred saw Ron's report card hidden in his robe and gave George a wink.

George immediately understood.

Ron probably did well on his test this time; he even dared to leave his report card out in the open. I need to tease him a bit.

George quietly circled behind Ron, pulled the report card from his robe pocket, and huddled with Fred to look at it.

"My God, Fred, I can't believe it!" George exclaimed.

Fred immediately played along, feigning shock and comically wagging his eyebrows. "Ron did so well on the test? At this rate, he'll practically become Prefect!"

"It's not that good, hehe, it's not that good."

Ron wasn't in a hurry to retrieve his report card. He waved his hand modestly, but he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

He already knew George and Fred's test scores.

Although I passed all of them, to be honest, overall I'm not as good as him.

This made Ron feel a little smug.

"Oh, Ron, I bet Mom's going to give you a real pat on the back." George and Fred winked and said at the same time, "I don't think anyone can compare to you except Percy Weasley."

These words were like Levitation Charm, making Ron's heart float away.

"Silan, how did you do on the exam?" Ron asked.

Besides what George and Fred said, his test results also gave him a lot of confidence, especially since Silan had previously said that he hadn't studied much.

That gave him the confidence to ask that question.

George and Fred exchanged a glance, a smug smile spreading across their faces, and silently stepped aside.

"I did alright on the test," Silan replied simply.

"What do you mean by 'not bad'?" Ron asked eagerly, "Take a look, don't be shy."

"This isn't a good idea..."

"What's wrong with that? It's just for looking."

Seeing Ron's smug look, Hermione rolled her eyes in disdain.

This guy really dares to ask that question.

"You really want to see it?" Silan asked finally.

Ron nodded with a broad smile, "Of course."

Silan took out her report card and handed it to him.

Let the child watch if they want.

After receiving the report card, Ron glanced at it and wondered if he had misread it.

How can this be all "O"s?

He shook his head, blinked hard, and looked at the report card again.

As it turned out, he was right.

From Transfiguration to the History of Magic, without exception, all of them are "O".

Hogwarts uses a six-level grading system, from highest to lowest: O (Excellent), E (Good), A (Pass), P (Poor), D (Very Poor), and T (Extremely Poor).

All "O"s mean that Silan has achieved the highest standard in all subjects.

Without a doubt, Silan should be the top student in Slytherin, and even in the entire first year of Hogwarts.

Is this what you call "average score"?

What kind of ridiculous nonsense is this?

George and Fred came over and compared Ron's report card with Silan's.

"How's it going, Prefect Ron?"

Did Silan do as well as you on the test?

Ron's face turned pale and then red, and he awkwardly tried to get his report card back.

George grabbed his hand, while Fred continued to fire away.

"Don't take it yet. Why don't you compare yourself to Silan and see who's better?"

Ron's face flushed red. "Silan did better..."

"You did well on the test too, keep it up." Silan spoke up at the right moment, interrupting George and Fred, and took back her report card.

Ron was taken aback by the older brother's tone, but then he realized that although Silan was the same age as him, she was indeed a few months older.

I should call him cousin.

The Weasley Twins grinned and let Ron go, stuffing a handful of snacks into his hand.

"Okay, Ron, don't be angry."

Ron breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly stuffed his report card into his Suitcase.

However, after more than a decade of loving care from his family, Ron had developed an optimistic personality and felt quite happy inside.

My cousin is the top student in the grade!

Being so closely related by blood means we're pretty much the same.

"Waaah!"

The whistle of a steam train rang out from afar, attracting the attention of everyone on the platform.

The white steam was playfully shaped by the wind into various forms before finally dissipating into the horizon.

The train has arrived at the station.

Regardless of their grades, everyone felt relaxed at that moment.

Many young wizards had not experienced being away from home for such a long time before coming to Hogwarts.

After a long journey away from home, they are finally going home.

The young wizards boarded the train, chatting and laughing all the way as they passed one lush and tidy Muggle village after another.

They changed out of their wizard robes and into their own jackets and blouses.

This process was like embarking on a great adventure, then boarding a train and gradually leaving behind a dream filled with mystery and magic, returning to the real world.

The train rattled along, and the young wizards' hearts pounded, their longing for home and their yearning for that magical world constantly intertwining.

The train finally arrived at the station.

The familiar King's Cross Station has become home to the familiar parents of the young wizards.
