Chapter 4 Chapter Four
At ten o'clock in the morning on September 1st, the Granger family arrived at King's Cross Station. There were not many passengers at the station. The Granger couple put their two daughters' luggage on the trolley and arrived happily.
This is the wall between Platform 9 and Platform 10.
Mrs. Granger gave the two tickets to Hermione, then reluctantly hugged her two daughters and kissed their foreheads before beginning to tell her, "Hermione, Hetty still hasn't recovered her memory. You are my sister and you need to take good care of her."
Sister, you must write back every week, and if you encounter any problems, go to the professor first to solve them, do you understand?"
"We know, Mum." Hermione hugged Mrs. Granger again, she agreed with a smile, and then turned around and hugged Mr. Granger, "Dad, I will miss you too."
Until now, Hetty still couldn't accept that they had become her parents when facing the Grangers. Her behavior seemed to the Grangers to be caused by amnesia, so they always accommodated her.
She. Compared to Hermione, Hetty just nodded and made a promise and didn't take the initiative to hug or anything.
Mr. Granger touched Hetty's head. He seemed a little sad that his two daughters were leaving home to go to boarding school. What was even more sad was that the younger daughter did not recognize him because of amnesia. "Hetty, dad will be missed very much."
You two."
Hetty looked at Mr. Granger's expression and suddenly thought of how much her parents missed her now. Her nose suddenly sore and she resisted the urge to cry and stretched out her arms to hug him, but said nothing.
In the end, the two of them left their parents and walked through the wall between Platform 9 and Platform 10 as Professor McGonagall had said.
A dark red steam locomotive was parked next to a platform crowded with passengers. The sign on the train read: Hogwarts Express, eleven o'clock. And a red sign hung above the platform, which clearly read nine o'clock.
And three quarters sign.
"Oh! This is incredible! I thought we were going to bump into each other." Hermione looked around. She was obviously very interested in this platform that Muggles could not see, so much so that the feeling of reluctance she felt when parting with her parents just now was completely forgotten.
replaced.
Hetty looked at the steam train in front of her but felt it was old. She couldn't help but complained, "But why do we still need to take a train in the magical world?" Well, she couldn't figure out why, and this train was actually steam. Forgive me.
She has never sat down since she was a child. To her, it only exists in textbooks and pictures.
"Perhaps it's because wizards are too lazy? I saw magic broomsticks on the list, and there seems to be a shop selling brooms in Diagon Alley. This may be their means of transportation. It sounds like they have to be controlled, so there must be no trains.
Don't worry, let's get on the train first." Hermione said, pulling Hetty and pushing the trolley towards the crimson train.
It was just before half past ten, and the train was still empty. After placing their luggage, Hermione and Hetty chose a box near the front and sat down.
"This train won't leave until eleven o'clock. We seem to have arrived a little early, but I'm really looking forward to it! Oh! Hetty, I read some interesting stories in "Major Magical Events of the Twentieth Century",
Do you want to listen to it?" Hermione said as she took out the book they bought together. It could be seen that she started to get excited when she talked about books.
Hetty stared at her with a look like "If you don't listen, you will definitely regret it." Her curiosity was suddenly aroused, and she quickly said, "Of course, tell me quickly."
Hermione smiled with satisfaction, and then she suddenly put on a mysterious expression and said slowly, "Ten years ago, the British wizarding world seemed to have the most powerful evil wizard in history, and he had countless suitors.
, formed a huge organization, and unscrupulously eradicated wizards who opposed and resisted in the British magical world. No wizard could compete with this evil wizard, but there was a little boy named Harry Potter who could
The prophecy of defeating him made him a little jealous and afraid. He personally found the boy's home and brutally killed the boy's parents, but he failed to kill the boy and only left a piece on his forehead.
After that, the devil disappeared, but the boy who survived became famous in the wizarding world." Hermione paused, then added, "I heard that this boy was killed by the headmaster of Hogwarts, Deng Xiaoping.
Blido picked him up, and I don’t know if he is still alive now.”
"I guess since he survived the disaster, he must be alive now." Hetty replied casually, but then seemed to suddenly think of something, and asked instead, "Hermione, which house do you want to be assigned to?"
?”
Hermione thought for a moment and answered without hesitation, "I want to go to Ravenclaw. This college symbolizes wisdom, and I heard that there are many books in the common room of their dormitory. I think I will be assigned to go there, Hetty."
,And you?"
Speaking of which, Hetty hasn't thought about this problem carefully. The reason why she doesn't think about it is that she can't choose where to go. Just like Hermione just said, she obviously wanted to go to Ravenclaw, but in the end she still followed.
The protagonist's footsteps went to Gryffindor. "Well, I shouldn't be able to enter Ravenclaw. This college has the smartest students, so I don't have that chance. But Gryffindor and Hufflepuff also
That’s right, it won’t be Slytherin anyway.”
Hermione nodded, "I read in "Hogwarts: A School History" that Slytherin never accepts Muggles, which is really harsh. Moreover, the evil wizard also graduated from Slytherin.
This academy doesn’t seem to welcome Muggles like us, but Merlin, the greatest wizard in history, was also a Slytherin, so this is really an extreme academy.”
"I think maybe Slytherin is more strict in selecting students than the other three houses? Although the big devil is a bad wizard, I have to say that he is indeed very strong, isn't it? And Merlin is different from him.
Completely opposite existences, the only thing they have in common besides being Slytherins is that their magic is very powerful, so I don't think we should misunderstand the entire academy just because of an evil wizard. In fact, this academy should be the strongest." He
Seeing that Hermione was not disgusted with Slytherin, Dee quickly struck while the iron was hot, but what she said was true. Slytherin was not evil, but it only looked at ability, and it was the students themselves who chose what kind of wizard they wanted to be.
The decision was made, no wonder it was the head of the academy.
Hermione thought seriously and then said, "Maybe you are right. Hetty Slytherin is not as evil as the books say. It is only certain students who are evil, not the academy, and they are not all evil.
Wizards. It's a pity that this academy does not accept Muggle wizards, otherwise I would also want to go."
Just when Hetty was about to say something, there was a sudden noise in the corridor outside the box door. The two looked at each other strangely and then tacitly chose to go out and take a look.
As soon as Hetty went out, she noticed a circle of people surrounding the door of a box about a few meters away to the right of their box. When she walked outside the crowd, Hetty stepped on her feet and could barely see the two people surrounded.
A thin boy with black hair and glasses and a slightly familiar boy with light blond hair and extremely pale skin seemed to be confronting each other, and a tall, thin boy with red hair joined their conversation.
.
The more Hetty looked, the more familiar the boy with light blond hair looked. Regardless of Hermione's questions, she went directly to the innermost part of the crowd. After taking a closer look, Hetty confirmed that the boy with light blond hair was not from Diagon Alley.
Did he bump into her kid on purpose? What did she say? Don't let her meet him again!
Remembering the insult this brat had given to her, Hetty instantly became furious. He didn't seem to notice her. Hetty quietly moved behind him, and without hesitation reached out her hand and gave him a shove.
, when he staggered forward and fell forward, Hetty quickly squeezed out of the crowd, pulled Hermione and ran towards their box.
At this moment, Hetty's heart: It feels so good to take revenge!
Hermione was dragged back to the box by her sister with a confused look on her face. Looking at the successful smile on her face, she instantly understood what she was talking about and asked, "Hetty, I heard someone scream just now. Come to the front and do it."
What?"
"I didn't, I just saw a very funny scene." Hetty put on an extremely innocent expression and denied without blushing, as if the person who just attacked was not her.
Hermione sighed helplessly, "Okay, okay, the train will leave soon. Don't run around and just stay and read a book with me." After saying that, she picked up a copy of Geed that she had already read.
He handed a copy of "Breaking with the Ghost" by Robert Lockhart to Hetty, and said happily, "Believe me, you will definitely like his book!"
Hetty looked at Hermione who was smiling like a teenage girl with black lines on her face. She paused for a moment before taking the book and murmured "What's there to read?"
However, unable to resist Hermione's request, Hetty was still forced to stay in the box and read a book. She swore that if she had not known what kind of person Lockhart was in advance, she would definitely have been attracted by the interesting and thrilling things written in the book.
The plot is attractive, but who told her to have plot bugs?
Halfway through, Hetty excused herself to go to the bathroom and walked around for a while. However, after she met the kid, she regretted not listening to Hermione.
