As the landing approached, the first-class flight attendants politely urged passengers to fasten their seat belts and prepare for landing.

When he walked to Cho Chang and Andrew's seats, the purser, who had promoted the two close ones, showed eight teeth. Bent down and said, "The plane is about to land, ma'am, please fasten your seatbelts." I'm curious, young sir, can you please tell me what you've been looking at along the way after you've fastened your seatbelts?"

"I'm looking to see if there is any of my kind flying in the sky, and by the way, I will write down the flight route, and when I have enough ability, I will fly back to China. Andrew said with a smile and bright eyes.

After witnessing the magnificence of the sky, he seemed to have undergone some metamorphosis, adding a lot of confidence and determination.

"Then you've come to the right place, Superman lives in the city where we're going to land," the purser said with a smile as he helped Andrew buckle up his seatbelts, "Welcome to New York." ”

The plane landed slowly, slowed down on the runway, and came to a steady stop.

Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was founded in the 17th century in Massachusetts, USA, located on the top of Greylock Mountain, of course, Andrew can't directly phantom to move over, the best way is to make an Atlantic plane first, reach the United States, and then find a way to go to that magic school.

The passengers breathed a sigh of relief from tiredness, and began to leave their seats one by one and disembark under the gentle broadcast sound of the stewardess.

"Tired, Andy, London and New York have a time difference, you can rest early after getting home and have a bite to eat, the room is already ready for you. ”

"I'm not tired, it's you who should be tired. Andrew smiled, got up from his seat, and stepped off the plane with Cho Chang.

"Not necessarily, I only came to New York with my parents a few years ago, and I had a good week of fun and didn't feel tired at all. Cho said.

At the moment of picking up and sending luggage, Qiu Zhang turned on his mobile phone, which had been turned off for a whole day, and dialed his friend's number, "Uncle Su Luo, we have arrived, are you ready? I took my boyfriend to New York..."

Andrew, who was on the side, didn't notice that Qiu was in high spirits, he looked around expressionlessly, as if Salem would appear in the next moment. Andrew waits for the cardboard box containing wizard items to emerge from the conveyor belt.

Salutes passed in front of his eyes, were taken by others, and finally the box with the words 'Folklore Art, Fragile and Fragile' appeared on the conveyor belt.

Andrew scooped up the cardboard box and let out a low sound in his mouth: "Hiss..."

The carton shook slightly, and everything was unharmed.

Andrew breathed a sigh of relief, tore open the box vigorously, and carefully put his witch worm into his backpack and carried it along with the stone ghost face and statue, and then looked at JFK Airport with peace of mind.

It's much bigger than London's airport, and the tourists and staff look all the colors of the people inside, but that's all, Andrew is not interested in the concrete, he is more concerned with how to complete his task.

Turning his head, he noticed Qiu Zhen staring at him curiously, and asked in astonishment, "What's wrong, why are you looking at me like this?"

"It's nothing, you're coming to New York for the first time, New York is the most developed city in the world, although it has a little less history than London, but it's really bustling, and you don't seem excited at all. Qiu Zhang said with a smile.

Andrew nodded, "Oh, maybe." "If you've ever seen those artificial planets suspended in space, if you've ever been on an interstellar cruise, if you've seen the Astral Monarch, you won't think there's anything good about this concrete jungle.

Facing the emotional and innocent little girl, Andrew didn't want to ruin the fun, and walked out of the airport with Qiu and her.

Qiu Zhang's friend's home is located in the Lobitch neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York, less than 20 kilometers from JFK Airport, and it took only half an hour for the two of them to get to their destination in an Indian-driven yellow cab outside the airport.

Fresh air, streets with just enough space for four cars to run alongside each other, tall trees and wide walking paths, green paved lawns and small buildings of different shapes but all neatly shaped.

After getting out of the car, everything in front of Andrew seemed to tell a decent American community--- which was completely different from the graceful temperament of London, and everything in the United States seemed more vibrant.

"What do you think of this place, Andy?" asked Cho Chang beside her lover.

"Peaceful, peaceful. In autumn, the environment is very nice, just like I saw in an American soap opera. Andrew said in a low voice. "Yes, if you like it. But as a "New York guest" who is about to start a trip in the United States, I would like to give you a warning first, baby, remember not to run around on the tram or subway by yourself, especially across the region. Also, don't trust strangers, or friends you've just met. ”

"Why, Autumn?" Andrew asked curiously.

"You'll get to know it later, baby, now we're going home. ”

189 Lobitch Street, New York, Andrew's temporary residence.

It is a typical-looking, but actually self-contained, middle-class American home, with a living room, open dining room and kitchen on the ground floor, separated by a garage and a children's playroom.

Of course, when the child grows up, the playroom unconsciously becomes a special room for the stressful male host to smoke, rest, and think about things.

The second floor is the bedroom for the male and female hostesses and the children's bedrooms, because there are too many children, so the second floor is only occupied by boys, and the girls who are in adolescence and need more private space to store clothes, skirts and cosmetics live in the third floor attic.

Since the attic is inhabited, it is deliberately higher than the attic of a general house, and the lowest part of the roof is more than 1 meter at the lowest point, so you can make full use of all the space if you bend down slightly.

The household miscellaneous items are all piled up in the basement. The family is said to be friends with Cho's father, and they have some business dealings. Originally, ordinary American families were rarely willing to receive strangers, but the Su Luo family was a big family and very hospitable, so Qiu's father would think of letting Qiu live here temporarily.

In order to welcome the daughter of the deceased who came from afar, Su Luo's family seemed to have made a small welcome ceremony: the ceiling on the first floor was full of ribbons at this time, and the room was cleaned and tidy.

In front of the door of the living room, the male host, Uncle Su Luo, clapped his hands and said loudly: "Children, get ready, we should be happy, Qiu Zhang is about to take your new friends home." Time was too tight for us to prepare cakes and dinners, so the only way to show our affection was to put a smile on our faces. That kid came from old-fashioned, old England, and he used to live better than you..."

"Old-fashioned, old-fashioned England, Daddy, do you mean the England that once claimed that the sun never sets, that once colonized all over the world, and that even our country was once her colony?

"That country was indeed once glorious, I don't deny it, but you know..."Uncle Su Luo was stunned for a moment, and reluctantly replied.

"Once brilliant, God, speaking of this metropolis younger than the city under our feet, I don't even know if the blacks who live in Queens have grown so fat by eating rats. ”

"Shut up Katie, as a cultured girl, you can't say such racist things. Uncle Su Luo, who was poor in words, pointed to his second daughter, who had never been at ease, and said loudly.

"Come on, Dad, my half-brother and sister are mixed-race, you should ask them if I meant racial discrimination. ”

Harry, who had yellowish skin on the side, scratched his chin, imitated the tone of an adult, and said very quickly, "I don't think so. Katie was only angry that her new brother had come along and taken over the big room that Brother Stephen had left behind, so Brother Laddy couldn't move into Brother Stephen's biggest room, and I couldn't move into Brother Lady's slightly larger room, so she couldn't use my smallest room as a storage room for her endless clothes. ”

"Harry, your talk show is very good, but this week's pocket money has been halved," Uncle Su Luo said loudly with a face, pointing and pointing, "Listen, I know that some of you think that you can earn money by part-time work, enough pocket money, so you don't want to listen to the kind advice of my parents." But I would like to remind you here that before you are a minor, whether you want to go on a date or travel, you still need to get the consent of me, the guardian. As the saying goes, 'It's best to have enough respect for those you can use'. Now show your teeth and smile to welcome the new friends of our family. ”

Hearing their father's tough words, all the children showed awkward smiles whether they wanted to or not, only the second son of the family, Radi, who had become an adult, shook his strong muscles and said proudly: "Dad, I'm already an adult, no matter what I do, I don't need to..."

"Laddie, do you want to practice, do you have time to work?" Ruili, the eldest daughter of the family who stood beside him and had not spoken, reminded in a low voice.

"OK, Ruili, OK, you see, I've got a sincere smile. ”

Just as the whole family finally smiled in unison, the door was gently pushed open, and Cho Chang walked in with Andrew.

Uncle Su Luo obviously didn't expect Cho Chang's sixteen-year-old boyfriend to look so much.... Calm down.... After he hugged Qiu Zhang, he was stunned for a moment, immediately came back to his senses, and said enthusiastically: "Hello, I am a good friend of Mr. Zhang, and I am also Qiu's uncel, you can call me Su Luo..."

Seeing Uncle Su Luo's somewhat awkward appearance, Andrew's expressionless face quickly changed into a smile, and then said: "Hello Uncle Laven, I'm Andrew Lee, Qiu's boyfriend, it's nice to meet you."

Uncle Su Luo looked at Andrew in astonishment, and Qiu Zhang on the side smiled and said: "Uncle Su Luo, Andy is very powerful, he has always had the best grades in the class when he was in school, and his father is still an earl." ”

"Oh, a nobleman... It's such a surprise, no wonder it looks old. Hi Andrew, welcome to our family, come, and say hello to your new friends, okay?" said Uncle Sulo, patting Andrew on the shoulder.

Andrew nodded and said politely to the six children in the room, "Hello everyone, my name is Andrew, and I am from London, England. ”

Weakness is sometimes more acceptable than toughness, and a young wizard who hides the murderous, indifferent devil in a perfectly seductive exorcism can't arouse the slightest bit of ill feeling from the American kids in the room.

Seeing Zhang Lisheng's somewhat old-fashioned appearance, Katie muttered in surprise: "He can't really be a member of the British royal family, look at his old appearance, he won't have a special etiquette teacher, right?"

The most sensible Ruili stepped forward directly and kindly hugged Andrew, who had changed into a smiling mask, "Hello Andy, I'm the eldest sister, you can call me Ruili." ”

"Let my dear sister go. Hi lad, I'm Ladie Laven..."The bubbly Ladie was the second to show his kindness.

Andrew greeted several children one by one, and finally even Katie, who was a little awkward, hugged the aristocratic boy from England.

Seeing that the atmosphere was getting better and better, the male host, Su Luo, clapped his hands with a smile and said loudly, "Okay, children, after saying hello to your new friends, our welcome party is about to begin." Sorry Andrew, the cake and lobster will be added tomorrow, but there is a fried steak and a muffin, which is not a good match, but I will only make two kinds of food, but it is guaranteed to be delicious. ”

"Thank you, Uncle Raven. After Andrew thanked him, he and Cho were seated in the center of the table.

The initial part of the dinner can be regarded as affectionate, but Andrew's withdrawn and introverted personality who only passively answers questions and never takes the initiative to speak is revealed, and the atmosphere gradually cools down.

American teenagers who are independent and individualistic are far more self-conscious than British children, and do not deliberately cater to other people's feelings. Only Qiu chatted happily with Katie and Ruili, and several boys were already sitting on pins and needles, feeling awkward.

Laven noticed this in time, and seeing that there was not much food on the table, he wiped his mouth with a napkin and said, "Autumn, Andrew, are you full?"

"I'm full, Uncle Raven. Cho replied, and Andrew nodded.

"Then I'll take you to rest and see the room we have prepared for you. Take a hot bath, sleep beautifully, and the jet lag will naturally turn upside down. ”

Andrew nodded, picked up the backpack at his feet, and silently followed behind Aki. Go up the stairs.

When he reached the second floor, Su Luo made a joke, "Andrew, you look handsome, no wonder Xiaoqiu likes you, but I can't arrange for you to live together, after all, you are not married yet..." "It seems to be trying to ease the slightly awkward atmosphere.

Andrew smiled at this.

Su Luo sighed quietly, walked to the innermost room in the corridor on the second floor, pushed open the door, turned on the light and said, "Andrew, come and see, this is your room." Except for the master bedroom, only this bedroom has a separate bathroom, and I have a new wallpaper, you should like it. ”

Looking through the door, the room was about 20 square meters in size, and on the west wall was a large rice-style single bed, next to the bed was a small bedside table with a lamp and a laptop on it, and next to a window.

There is a brand new computer desk and chair against the wall at the foot of the bed, and there is a small door on the opposite wall, which should be a bathroom.
