Hogwarts Reading Days

Chapter 3 Visit

Herb called his father. The old man was emotional after hearing it, and said that he would come to visit his grandson in the near future.

Daisy was still angry, and under Albert's comfort, she did not quarrel with her husband. This female lawyer couldn't understand why her husband, who had always been smart, suddenly became so stupid, and he was so He was deceived by silly jokes and planned to joke about the future of his precious son.

In fact, everyone thinks it is very interesting. After all, such things as magic only exist in legends.

Nia even pestered Albert to enchant herself.

"I won't." Albert spread his hands helplessly.

Actually, Albert certainly knew some spells, such as the simplest glow spell.

But without the help of the wand, it probably wouldn't work, so Albert didn't try.

At least, he won't try it in front of other people, otherwise how to explain it?

"Nia, there is no magic in this world at all, it's all a trick." Daisy said seriously, she didn't want her daughter to be full of those strange thoughts.

"Albert, the letter says that you can bring a pet to school. Are you going to take Tom to school with you?" Nia didn't care about her mother's words, and picked up the shorthair cat and went to Albert's side.

"I won't consider this until I'm sure magic exists," Albert said solemnly.

Of course, this is actually to appease mother Daisy.She now looks like a ticking time bomb that could explode at any moment.

An owl flew into the living room through the window and threw a piece of parchment on the table.

The parchment reads:

I'll be visiting by 3:20 - Professor McGonagall.

"3:20?" Albert took the parchment, looked at the clock and muttered, "It's still 1 minute away."

"Very well, I will definitely debunk the tricks of those liars."

By 3:20, the doorbell outside rang.

The Anderson family looked at each other, and finally Herb Anderson, the head of the family, went to open the door, while Nia followed.

Opening the door, Herb found an elderly woman standing outside his door.

"Professor McGonagall?" Herb looked suspiciously at the woman in front of him, and said dryly, "Oh, okay, please come in, Albert is in the hall, if you can prove the existence of magic."

"You know magic?" Nia probed and asked.

"That's what I came for!" Professor McGonagall is very good at dealing with this kind of thing. She has experienced many similar things. "Some families from Muggles will have similar questions."

"What the heck? Muggles?" Anderson's expression froze, and he repeated what he had just heard.

They call themselves Muggles?

"Muggles are ordinary people who don't know magic." After Mag entered the living room, his eyes fell on the only boy in the room.

"Hello Mr. Anderson."

"Hello, Ms. McGonagall." Albert looked at the witch in front of him. Professor McGonagall's appearance seemed to be different from the movie.To be honest, after more than ten years, his memory in this regard has been blurred.

"We hope you can prove...the existence of magic." Daisy served Professor McGonagall a cup of unsweetened black tea.

"Of course, look!" McGonagall took out her wand and tapped it on the teacup, and the teacup actually turned into a little mouse.

This was the first time Albert saw magic, and he grabbed the little gray mouse curiously: "It's amazing."

"This is magic? I will never let Albert waste time learning such boring tricks. Can't I expect him to become a magician in the future?" Daisy took out the momentum of a lawyer and pointed out sharply: "I'm blunt. , I am worried about Albert's future. The graduation certificate of the magic school should be no different from waste paper in the world of ordinary people. The premise is that if you really will issue a graduation certificate."

"Every qualified graduate of Hogwarts can find a decent job in the wizarding world, you don't have to worry about this." Professor McGonagall explained.

After seeing magic, Daisy knew that she could not deny the existence of magic, but she still planned to fight for the last time: "Albert, I think Eton College is a better choice, that is only achieved by your own efforts. If you want to develop into finance, it is best not to go to Hogwarts, where your talents will not be displayed."

Herb looked at his wife and sighed helplessly in his heart. He knew that Daisy didn't want Albert to go to Hogwarts.

"Son, choose for yourself, we respect your choice."

"With all due respect," McGonagall cleared his throat and explained, "Hogwarts can teach underage wizards how to control and use magic. And once magic gets out of control, it can cause some bad things."

"Well, it seems that I have no choice!" Albert couldn't help but raised his eyebrows, in fact, he had already made a choice.

"But, Albert..." Daisy still wanted to say something.However, it was interrupted by Nia.

"Ma'am, can I go to Hogwarts too?"

"Only children who are 11 years old and have received an invitation letter from Hogwarts can study there." McGonagall politely refused.

"Nia, you are not yet 11 years old." Albert touched his sister's head, looked at Professor McGonagall and asked, "Where should I go shopping? And that ticket? Where should I go by train?" ?”

Is this an agreement?

Professor McGonagall breathed a sigh of relief and told Albert the approximate route to the Leaky Cauldron, "You can definitely see it, even though the Muggles around you are invisible... Muggles mean ordinary people who don't understand magic. By the way, the bar owner's name is Tom, as for how to get to Diagon Alley, you can ask Tom, he will be happy to guide you."

“至于9又4分之3站台,位于国王十字车站的第9站台和第10站台之间的隔墙里,穿过去就到了。”

"It's ridiculous to take the train to the wizarding school. Are your magic carpets all broken?" Daisy said sharply.

"Daisy." Herb coughed lightly and handed the record to Professor McGonagall to avoid missing any key information.

"Then we'll see you at Hogwarts on September [-]st, Mr. Anderson." Professor McGonagall was about to leave.

"Professor, can you restore it to its original state?" Albert pointed to the mouse that the teacup turned into.

"Oh, of course!" Professor McGonagall waved her wand, and the mouse slid the teacup again.

After Albert sent the other party out, Professor McGonagall directly Apparated and disappeared.

"She disappeared?" Herb looked in disbelief at where Professor McGonagall had just stood.

"Dad, are we going to London tomorrow?" Albert asked.

"Oh, oh, shopping in London tomorrow," said Herb dully.

"I'm going too." Nia said coquettishly, holding her father's hand.

"Wait for next time." Albert shook his head and said, "I'll go to get acquainted with the place first, and next time I'll take you with my mother and come back to buy you a present."

"I hate it, Albert really hates it." Nia left angrily.

Albert reluctantly spread his hands towards Herb, turned and entered the living room.
