The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Yuri didn't understand why his "old friend" would send him such a letter so late at night.

As for private prisons, he has some knowledge about them - there is a high probability that he will move into such a prison in the future - and he also knows a little bit about the receivables methods there.

In his opinion, this is indeed a job that guarantees a profit despite droughts and floods. It is more enjoyable than his arms business, but the income is slightly less.

But the problem is, why does a good business get his turn?

He continued to read and found that his friend's thinking was really strange: other people's private prisons would make special remarks in their contracts that they did not want serious criminals, but it would be better for him to select serious criminals - it was simply for his own sake. Contribute to the country!

Seeing the clause about felons, Yuri felt that this matter could really be done. As for the escape of prisoners, it can be easily solved - just build the prison on the island.

Near the end of the letter, Tom explained to Yuri the reason why he built a prison: to raise things that were not very suitable for exposure to the light.

Seeing this, Yuri suddenly realized that the prison was just a cover, and he was attracted by the promise in the letter:

[I assure you, this prison requires almost no guards and the expenses are extremely low]

Yuri was stunned for a moment. A prison that does not require guards? Things are a little strange, but if you don't hire guards, the cost of running the prison will be much less, and you can still make money from this business.

Even regardless of his relationship with Tom, he was quite moved by a stable and profitable business. Yuri made up his mind and planned to go out for some activities tomorrow morning to clear up the relationship.

…

After hurriedly writing a letter to Yuri in the owl loft, Tom tied the letter to the pigeon's leg, took it to the window, and watched his pigeon fly out of his hand and disappear into the clouds. At this time, a gust of cold wind blew in from the open window, making him shiver. The weather has been getting colder day by day recently.

He quickened his pace and left the owl loft. But on his way to the Ravenclaw lounge, he met an acquaintance: Luna.

She was dressed as a student today, wearing a black dress with blue stripes, a white shirt and a blue floral tie.

At this time, she was holding a stack of flyers in her left hand, and her right hand was responsible for pasting these flyers on the wall.

"What are you doing?" A curiosity arose in Tom's heart. He quickly realized the language error of his question and made an adjustment: "I mean, why are you posting flyers on the wall?"

"My things are missing. Someone must have hidden them." Luna recognized Tom and smiled lightly. At the same time, she kept moving her hands and neatly pasted the flyer on the wall. Judging from her skillful movements, she may have done the same movements frequently.

Tom glanced at the contents of the flyer.

【Notice of missing items:

A pair of red and white canvas shoes

A pair of black student women's shoes

…

Contact: Ravenclaw House, Luna Lovegood]

Tom frowned, "Stealing? That's too bad."

"Oh, it's quite fun." Luna's answer is always unexpected, "But the weather has been a little cold recently, so I really should get it back."

She took two steps briskly without making any sound. Tom then noticed that Luna only had a pair of socks on her feet and no shoes.

"Can I help you?" Tom felt a hint of anger rising in his heart. He felt that Luna's classmates had gone too far.

This is bullying and exclusion.

"No, my mother always said that there is always a way to get back what you lose." Luna was unhurried, as if she was not the one who was forced to walk in the corridor without shoes.

Tom thought for a moment, "Then maybe that's the solution? I have a very practical magic spell here -"

Just when Tom was about to try to use the flying spell to help Luna find shoes, both of them stopped. Tom saw a pair of shoes hanging outside the castle window.

"Sometimes this method is a little unexpected." Luna showed a happy smile, jumped to the window and took off her shoes.

"Anyway, thank you for your kindness." After putting on her shoes, Luna put the flyer away and thanked Tom.

Looking at her retreating back, Tom opened his mouth, but no words came out. He had no idea how he could help this marginalized girl. Go directly to the line with her roommate? That must bring her more trouble, right?

"Wait a minute!" But Tom still called Luna.

"Is there anything else?" Luna stood at the end of the corridor, turning her head and looking at Tom curiously.

"There is a spell called the Flying Curse, which may be able to help you..." Tom thought about it, and it seemed that teaching Luna the Flying Curse would be the most practical help.

"Thank you, but I don't think it's necessary," Luna's eyes wandered for a moment and she said something that made Tom a little confused.

How can you quickly find your lost things without using the flying spell?

"How-" As soon as Tom finished speaking, he saw Luna take out a pair of small black leather shoes from behind a pair of armor.

She shook her shoes at Tom and left with brisk steps.

…

"Hermione, that's what happened." In the corner of the lounge, Tom told Hermione what happened to Luna after he just met her.

"That's too much!" Hermione frowned. As she spoke, she realized that her voice was a bit too high. Although there were not many people in the lounge, there were still several people sitting there, so she lowered her voice. Volume: "How can they treat their classmates like this!"

"I'll go talk to them-" Hermione just stood up and sat back down in her chair dejectedly. She also realized the unanswerable nature of the problem. This is rejection from the heart. How can a senior sister solve it with just a few words?

What's more, there is a term called cold violence.

Hermione sighed. Her first impression of Luna was not good. She felt that this girl was crazy, but this was no reason to bully her. Hermione had a hard time imagining that a Ravenclaw student could do such a thing - it seemed like a Slytherin thing.

"I suggested that she learn the Flying Charm, but she seemed to refuse." Tom picked up the passing Crookshanks from the ground and scratched its chin.

"Having the Flying Charm will make it easier for her." Hermione reached out to Tom and asked for Crookshanks. Looking at the big yellow cat digging into her chest, Hermione suddenly said: "Do you want any suggestions?" Is she going to get a pet?”

"Then she'll say she wants to keep a Snorlax." Tom shrugged.

"What is that?" Hermione looked dumbfounded.
