Hermione's face turned pale after hearing it: "They won't be expelled, will they? Hogwarts' school rules are very strict!"
"Don't worry, Dumbledore wouldn't expel students for such a small matter," Charlie comforted her.
Just then, a familiar voice sounded.
"Um, Charlie."
Everyone turned to look; Draco was standing next to the carriage, with a conflicted expression on his face.
"Can I come up?" Draco asked cautiously.
Crabbe and Goyle stood behind him, their expressions as if they had seen a ghost.
Who are you? Get off Draco right now!
Charlie shook his head mercilessly: "No."
"Why?" Draco was a little disappointed.
"There are three of you, and there's only one seat here," Charlie pointed to the empty spot.
"How will you sit?"

Charlie:???
Do you want to see what you're saying? This broken system really needs some re-education.
A glint flashed in Draco's eyes, and he immediately turned and waved at Crabbe and Goyle.
"You two, go find another carriage!"
"What?" Crabbe couldn't believe his ears.
"Draco, don't you want us anymore?" Goyle said, feeling wronged.
"There's no room in the carriage, hurry up and go."
Draco unceremoniously pushed the two away.
Crabbe and Goyle walked away with wronged expressions; they completely couldn't understand why Malfoy suddenly changed his attitude.
Draco sat in the carriage, a satisfied smile on his face.
Hermione watched Draco warily, gripping her wand.
But Draco completely ignored her, not even glancing at her.
With Harry absent, Draco had no interest in these Muggle-born Wizards.
He came up purely to get closer to Charlie; his father had nagged him about this all summer.
Plus, as a Slytherin, worshipping strength was inherently his trait.
Charlie watched the pulling horses with interest.
These horses were peculiar, with a pair of huge wings growing on their emaciated bodies.
Their eyes were white, without pupils, looking somewhat eerie.
But Ernie, Draco, and Hermione showed no particular reaction.
Charlie thought, Ernie and Draco were both from pure-blood families, so they should have seen these horses before.
Although Hermione was Muggle-born, she was well-read and must have seen relevant descriptions in some book.
The carriage slowly started, heading towards Hogwarts Castle.
Night fell, and warm lights shone from the Castle windows.
"We're finally almost there," Ernie said excitedly.
Draco looked at the Castle outside the window, a complex expression flashing in his eyes.
Last year he had suffered a lot here, especially the times he was taught a lesson by Charlie.
But now he had come to a realization: instead of opposing Charlie, it was better to find a way to get along with him.
After all, Charlie's strength was undeniable, and he also had the blessing of the order of merlin, second class.
"Charlie," Draco suddenly spoke.
"Hmm?"
"I want to apologize to you," Draco's voice was very sincere.
"I did a lot of stupid things last year, and I hope you can forgive me."
Hermione's eyes widened; she had never seen Malfoy so humble.
Ernie was also surprised; the House of Malfoy had always been arrogant, when would they ever apologize proactively?
Charlie looked at Draco, guessing that Draco's father must have told him to do this.
"Don't worry, I'm not one to hold grudges; I always settle them on the spot," Charlie said indifferently.
Draco wiped the sweat from his forehead; he had a lot to say about settling things on the spot.
At the same time, he made up his mind never to provoke Charlie again.
The carriage finally arrived at the Castle gates.
Students disembarked and walked towards the Great Hall.
As Charlie stepped into the Castle, he heard a huge roar from behind him.
"Rumble!"
Everyone turned to look, only to see a blue car rushing towards the Castle.
The car swayed, clearly out of control.
"What is that?" a student exclaimed.
No sooner had the words fallen than the car crashed heavily into a giant willow tree.
"Bang!"
The loud noise echoed throughout the entire Castle.
