Hermione wasn't as irresponsible as him; she waited quite a while before coming downstairs.

Jimmy's expectant expression immediately fell, because Hermione had already changed out of her gown and back into her everyday clothes, and put on cotton boots.

She immediately understood when she saw Jimmy's disappointed expression, and a mischievous grin spread across her face, clearly indicating that she was deliberately trying to change out of her dress.

"Wait a minute, I'll go back and change." Since he no longer had any dresses that increased durability, Jimmy naturally didn't want to wear an uncomfortable suit. After saying that, he ran back to his dorm to change back into his regular clothes.

When she came down, Hermione was already standing in front of the fireplace warming herself.

Seeing that the common room was empty, Jimmy sat down and hugged her from behind, saying, "You smell so good! Hehe!"

Although he had changed his clothes, he still had his long, specially washed and smooth hair down, which allowed him to kiss Hermione's snow-white neck.

Hermione, feeling a little aroused by the teasing, laughed and pushed Jimmy's head away, pulling his arm into her lap and saying, "Let's go for a walk!"

Jimmy's original plan was to go straight upstairs, but Hermione wanted to go for a walk, so he accompanied her.

As they came down the stairs, the foyer door, not far away, was pushed open from the inside, and Hagrid, arm in arm with Mrs. Maxim, walked toward the garden, chatting and laughing.

Upon seeing this, the two immediately hid behind the corner of the stairs and followed in perfect unison.

After walking for a short while, I suddenly heard two footsteps, one light and one heavy, behind me.

Jimmy and Hermione turned around abruptly, their wands already at their waists, ready to unleash an aggressive spell at any moment; this was thanks to their extensive practice of English iaido techniques.

But after seeing who it was, they put their wands away.

Fleur de la Kurle made a shushing gesture, with Roger Davis beside her. They were clearly also curious about the two adults' love story, which was why they had followed along.

Since they were all there to watch the drama unfold, the more people there were, the more fun they would have. So the four of them sneakily followed behind the two adults who were completely unaware of their presence.

Cut, the reason and subsequent plot outline

I just woke up and started writing full of hope when I suddenly realized I missed posting a chapter on February 28th. I've been relying on that little bit of attendance bonus to keep writing all month...

I remember checking the backend a few times back then, but no one reminded me that a chapter was missing.

Given that not many people actually watch it, we can only regretfully announce that it's a flop.

My second attempt at Harry Potter fanfiction ended in disappointment once again.

The terrible reality is that I really intended to write until I reached a million words before finishing.

It seems I need to further improve my writing skills before I can finish a Harry Potter fanfiction.

The following is the plot summary.

Fourth Year Update: Karkaroff has been approached by Voldemort again, and he has once again become Voldemort's henchman. Ludo Bagman, under immense debt pressure, has also accepted the Burke family's harsh demands, but he is unaware of Voldemort and Karkaroff's plans and only wants Harry to win.

Jimmy discovers some clues at the Christmas ball and begins an investigation. During the second project, he finds that Moody is also investigating. Together, they track Karkaroff and discover the moment Ludobagman is killed.

They failed to capture Karkaroff, and just as the match was about to end, Connelly Fudge arrived and forcefully forced the Three Kingdoms to continue, concealing Ludobagman's death.

Jimmy summoned wizards from the Round Table to patrol around Hogwarts and venture deep into the Forbidden Forest in search of clues.

The third project begins, Hermione encounters Karkaroff, seizes a loophole in their conversation, informs Jimmy, and then attempts to capture him.

Karkaroff escapes into the obstacle course (similar to the boys and girls rushing forward to grab a refrigerator). Jimmy and Moody, who are the first to notice the situation, chase after him. Moody is injured by the Sphinx in the obstacle course.

Karkaroff escaped to the Goblet of Fire and used the Portkey to escape, ending the match, but Cornelius Fudge was once again asked to continue.

Therefore, Cornelius Fudge clashed with Dumbledore and Jimmy, and he decided to interfere in the school's affairs.

Harry was attacked by Viktor Krum's dance partner and had his blood taken. It was established that she was the child of the Carol siblings and was now working for Voldemort.

Entering fifth grade, the transitional plot involves discovering that the witch hunt attackers burned down Granger's house, conducting some investigations, and eventually finding an underground black market in Europe.

Just before the start of the school term, I went to Dragon Island and the Giant Mountains, where I and Hagrid used our fists to persuade the giants to avoid joining Voldemort's side.

Cornelius Fudge, due to the conflict from the previous semester, asked Jimmy to come to the Ministry of Magic for questioning before the start of the new semester and began to undermine the power of the Round Table.

After the review concluded, Jimmy formed a quasi-political organization, the New Era Wizards' Union, and moved the production base from Britain to Germany.

Soon after, Hydra Malfoy disappeared and was captured, luring Harry to the Ministry of Magic.

The reckless Harry, unprepared, headed to the Ministry of Magic. Jimmy discovered him and explained the current channels of the Round Table to him. Then, Jimmy gathered a group of over two hundred people, along with several members of the Order of the Phoenix, and stormed into the Ministry of Magic.

Finally, Malfoy was found in the Department of Mysteries at the Ministry of Magic. Harry was also attracted by the prophecy orb and obtained his own prophecy. The Death Eaters appeared and tried to steal the orb, but failed.

Harry and Jimmy's group safely evacuated to the hall under protection. Voldemort and a large group of Death Eaters appeared, and the two gangs clashed and clashed, quickly escalating into a fight.

Jimmy and Voldemort were struggling to exchange beams when suddenly Dumbledore appeared and joined forces to beat up Voldemort.

Voldemort was defeated and forced to retreat. The wizards of the Round Table sealed off the Floo Network and set up an anti-Apparition spell.

The Death Eaters broke through the wall above them and flew out of the gap, creating a large hole in central London, causing panic among Muggles and attacks from the government and witch hunt groups.

The attacks have exacerbated tensions between wizards and Muggles, and Downing Street's tolerance for wizards is declining. They have taken what they believe to be effective actions, cooperating with witch hunt groups to find wizards and attempt to effectively regulate them.

With its offices damaged and the Muggle government's lack of cooperation, the British Ministry of Magic moved its offices, which were eventually attacked by Death Eaters, resulting in Cornelius Fudge's death. A puppet minister was then elected to replace him.

Many people in the Ministry of Magic were expelled and transferred to Jimmy's New Age Wizarding Union and the Round Table system, where they were besieged by Death Eaters who had obtained Auror status and by the true Death Eaters of the Slope.

They began searching for Horcruxes, and Dumbledore found many, while also minimizing the possibility of dark creatures joining the Death Eaters' ranks.

That year, Jimmy created a potion to break the werewolf curse, and he left school to go to Europe with Lupin to solve the werewolf problem.

What follows is a series of games centered around Horcruxes, progressing gradually from low to high, interspersed with some Muggle content.

While fighting Voldemort, they also battle a witch hunt organization that has found many magical relics.

I also created a plot where several Knights Templar witch-hunting organizations obtained ancient alchemical artifacts that could control dragons, rode dragons to Hogwarts to kill Dumbledore (the dragon riders tell a bunch of stories about their past being harmed by wizards, and Dumbledore puts down his sword and persuades people to do good, a classic Western-style liberal plot).

Voldemort then killed the dragon rider, obtained the Elder Wand, and entered Hogwarts to begin the final battle.

Jimmy sold some of his patents, used the money to max out all his levels, and went back to fight Voldemort.

He was in charge of stalling for time, while the others searched for Horcruxes. Finally, they would have the classic scene of Neville leaping and slashing Nagini, and then proceed to the settlement phase.

After Voldemort's death, there will be a side story about the changes in the new world after the combination of magic and technology (flying to the moon, colonizing Mars, new types of wizard transportation, and exploiting alchemical robots, etc.).
