"Lord Lai!" Hafiz lowered his head in shame. As Lord Lai's top henchman, he had not only become the warden of Azkaban after the war with the Ministry of Magic, but also held a seat in Wizengamot, becoming a truly important figure.

Under the flattery and praise of others, he gradually lost himself, thinking that the position of a mere warden was enough. Fortunately, Lord Lai reminded him of his mistake.

Following Lord Lai, how could I be content with the lowly position of warden? My goal is to follow Lord Lai step by step to unify the world!

"Lord Lai, I know, I'll get my men to work hard!"

After uttering a nonsensical remark, Hafiz retracted his painstakingly written schedule, grabbed Lester's shoulder, and immediately activated Apparition.

At first, Lester would feel dizzy when using the Portkey to teleport, but as his magic power increased, he no longer feels uncomfortable when Hafiz teleports him.

I simply felt a sudden darkness before my eyes, and then I found myself in a bustling train station restroom.

"Ah!!!"

A piercing scream suddenly rang in Lester's ears, so loud that he almost unleashed a Killing Curse.

A woman dressed in Muggle clothes pushed open the door and looked at Hafiz and Lester with a terrified expression.

Lester is alright; he's naturally handsome and has an extraordinary air about him. Even if he accidentally wanders into the women's restroom, he'll be assumed it was an accident, not intentional.

But Hafiz is different. There's nothing he can do about it. When he worked in the Auror Office, he had no connections and did all the dirty and hard work. As a result, even though his standard of living has improved, he looks prematurely aged.

"Are you a pervert?!" The woman looked at Hafiz in horror at first, then said to Lester in a calm tone, "Little brother, don't be afraid, come to your sister, I'll protect you!"

Lester: "..."

Hafiz: "..."

Hafiz was truly fed up with this world that judges people by their appearance!

After casually erasing the Muggle woman's memory with Memory Charm, Hafiz, looking displeased, led Lester out of the women's restroom.

This time, however, Hafiz was smarter and cast a Muggle-Repelling Charm on himself to avoid causing trouble.

As soon as he stepped out of the restroom, Lester began to look around at the crowd in the station.

It's clear that today isn't a special day. There aren't many people in the station; a few Winky Muggle dragging suitcases, sitting in the waiting hall waiting for their trains to arrive, and Muggle administrators in blue uniforms are managing the station's order.

"Lord Lai, to prevent Muggle from discovering the station, the Ministry of Magic specifically placed the station entrance on a pillar. Once you pass through that pillar, you can enter the station."

There was a mishap during Apparition, and in an attempt to save face, Hafiz began explaining the location of Platform Nine and Three-Quarters to Lester.

"Look, this pillar is the passageway to Platform Nine and Three-Quarters. The two men next to it wearing thick overcoats in the middle of summer must be Auror from the Ministry of Magic."

Lester looked in the direction the person in charge was pointing and sure enough, he saw two big idiots wearing thick trench coats in the middle of summer, looking at the passengers with a very professional expression.

Beside them stood a very large wizarding family; at a cursory glance, Lester could see at least six people.

Lester led Hafiz to the pillar, where he could overhear the family's conversation.

Two older boys, who looked very similar but still had childlike faces, flanked a boy who seemed somewhat absent-minded, and whispered something in his ear.

"Ron Weasley, be careful when you enter Hogwarts. The school will test you to see if you are qualified to study there."

As soon as he finished speaking, another boy immediately chimed in, saying...

"You must do well on the test, otherwise your mother will be very sad if you get kicked out of Hogwarts."

As he spoke, the boy glanced at his mother with a troubled expression, looking somewhat worried.

After a few words, Ron Weasley, who had been cheerful because he could go to school, suddenly became sullen and his eyes were filled with fear of the unknown.

Seeing this, Lester knew that this family must be the Weasley family.

Sure enough, when he and Hafiz walked over, they were immediately given a warm welcome by the Weasley family.

"Hey, sir, is your child also a freshman this year?" After passing through the pillars and entering Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, Mr. Weasley greeted Hafiz very familiarly.

Although the Weasley family is poor, they are still one of the 28 Pure-blood families, and with the backing of Headmaster Dumbledore, they are considered top-tier in the Wizarding World. So, it's no problem for them to strike up a conversation with someone.

Moreover, Mr. Weasley felt very satisfied whenever he saw people look surprised and envious upon hearing his surname.

"Yes," Hafiz clearly didn't want to tell Weasley, after all, saying that Lord Lai was his son was practically smearing him in front of Lord Lai.

Seeing that the middle-aged man in Auror clothes didn't seem to care much about him, Mr. Weasley didn't say anything more.

He was a proper nobleman; striking up conversations with others and enjoying their surprised looks was just a little quirky hobby of his. Even if others ignored him, he wouldn't get angry or upset.

Seeing that Mr. Weasley was somewhat bored and left with his family, Hafiz mysteriously led Lester to a corner.

As soon as I entered this corner, I saw several tall, burly figures coming to greet me.

That's right, they were some of Lester's well-known henchmen.

The lecherous old man Leona, the deadly poisoner Scarface, the top dark wizard Sang Biao, and Hou San, whom he met once when he was in prison and whom he gave a name to.

Four people mysteriously brought over a large box with several small holes punched in the top for air circulation.

"Could it be a succubus?" Lester looked at the large box that clearly contained a living creature, and his heart skipped a beat, becoming somewhat restless.

I never expected that Hafiz, who seems a bit dim-witted, would understand my feelings so well!

Sensing Lord Lai's excitement, Hafiz and the others were overjoyed and immediately opened the large chest, exposing the creatures inside to Lester's eyes.

"Lord Lai, this is a gift I got for you from the Ministry of Magic. It can help take care of you at school."

Hafiz pointed triumphantly at the non-human creature and stood there waiting for Lester's praise.

Lester: "..."

"Damn it, I miscalculated. I didn't expect it to be House-elf!"
