Chapter 1: Sail to Hogwarts

"King's Cross Station, nine and three-quarters." Mrs. Joyce looked at the envelope and confirmed, "11 o'clock." Those...... Do you have all the magic books? ”

"Honey, there's nothing wrong with that." Mr. Joyce held his forehead, turned to look at Shelley Joyce, and blinked, "Son, I mean, do you really want to do this?" ”

The station was crowded with people, most of them in a hurry, and the family stayed back and forth between the two platforms.

"Okay, I know how to do it, just rush towards that wall......"

Before Shelley could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the Joyces one after another:

"Is there really no problem?"

"Maybe you'll only have gold in your eyes."

"Merlin, I'm pretty sure what Professor McGonagall said before she left." Shelley, of course, was sure that after all, he had read the original book in his previous life, although now he only remembered some impressive episodes.

At this time, the family of six people—all with red hair—walked away with a smile and a smile: "Of course it's packed with Muggles. ”

The short and fat lady looked over, "To the platform?" Don't worry, just go through that wall. ”

"Percy, go and demonstrate."

The student named Percy, who looked four or five years older than Shelley Joyce, smiled kindly at the Joyces, pushed the cart forward, and vanished.

Shelley knew that this was the Weasley family, and although it was a pure-blood wizard family, it did not have the slightest sense of domineering, but was very approachable.

"Oh, that's amazing." Mrs. Joyce exclaimed.

The twins, who looked very similar, George and Fred were joking and followed.

Shelley's attention was not here, but a figure in the distance. Although he didn't see the iconic lightning scar on his forehead, Shelley was extremely sure that it was Harry Potter!

Harry came alone, with a large box on the cart that looked heavy. There was also a snow-white owl in the cage on the box, and he was not accompanied by his parents. What a poor boy, Shelley thought.

Harry Potter's parents were killed by Voldemort, the powerful dark wizard who had fought the Wizarding Wars, and now he is the only one who survives, staying at his aunt's house, who is very unkind to him.

Voldemort must have possessed one of the Hogwarts professors by now, struggling to survive, with his mind set on killing Harry Potter and a conspiracy......

Shelley had already decided to join the trio's adventure party. How could you deal with Voldemort without him? Although he didn't have a golden finger, Shelley was so confident in his talent that he had already pre-studied all his textbooks over the summer.

The zealous Mrs. Molly Weasley pulled Harry over without waiting for him to ask.

"You're all freshmen, Ron is in the same class as you, you can all go together."

Ron was freckled, tall, thin, and clumsy to the sidelines.

Harry and Shelley smiled and nodded.

Shelley watched Ron and Harry enter the station one after another, took a deep breath, and rushed forward.

In a trance, the scenery in front of me is completely different.

A bright red steam locomotive was parked quietly, with a sign in the middle of the locomotive that read, "Hogwarts Express, departs at eleven". In front of him, many little wizards looked at each other curiously, pushing their luggage and getting into the car. The place where the ticket gate was originally located is now a wrought iron archway, on which is written: Platform Nine and Three-Quarters.

Shelley touched his wand, twelve and three-quarters, the body of the wand made of spruce wood, the core of the wand is a dragon's heart nerve, which has a subtle elasticity and gives him some security.

Hogwarts is the safest place in the wizarding world, but unfortunately Harry Potter is now enrolled......

Shelley's pet is an owl, which can both sell cuteness and deliver letters, isn't it a double win?

It was a grey wood owl named Leo, who was also looking left and right at this time.

Of course, there will always be people who choose to bring some weird pets to school. For example, a group of children gather around to see a fluffy spider. A round-faced boy tells his grandmother that the toad is missing, and Shelley suddenly remembers that it was Neville, and that Hermione had helped him find the toad and make Audio-Technica's first encounter on the train.

The Weasleys mingled with each other, and their youngest daughter, Ginny, clamored to get in the car to see Harry Potter when she learned of his legendary identity.

Mr. and Mrs. Joyce followed, and told Shelley.

"Woo woo"

A whistle sounded.

Shelley: They hurriedly climbed onto the train.

"I'll write a letter, and the owl will send it." The train moved slowly, and Shelley waved goodbye to the Joyces.

After a while, the train turned a corner, and the platform was no longer visible.

Shelley didn't know what life would be like at Hogwarts, but it was better to move forward than backwards. His heart was full of anticipation, and he longed for the wonders of magic.

Shelley walked ahead and opened the sliding door of the cubicle, and Ron followed.

Harry Potter sat in the cubicle, Shelley sat across from Harry, and Ron seemed interested in Harry and sat next to him, chatting happily. Before you know it, the train leaves London and passes through meadows and fields to the beautiful castle of Hogwarts in the distance.

It was about 12:30 p.m., and Harry bought a copy of everything to share with the group, Shelley was eating Bibi Beans, and Harry and Ron were studying the cards in the chocolate frog.

"Twelve Uses of Dragon's Blood."

"The twelfth...... For furnace cleaners. I think it's a great waste. Shelley complained.

At this time, Neville, who had seen him on the platform before, walked in: "I'm sorry. I want to ask, have you seen my toad?"

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.

"It's always trying to run away!" As he spoke, he burst into tears.

"Will find it." Harry tried to reassure.

Neville sadly left.

Shelley was thinking about where Neville's toad was, but unfortunately the time was long, and I couldn't remember many details of the original book I read in my previous life.

Ron was about to cast a spell on his pet mouse, with his brother Charlie's old wand—peeling off in some places, so you could almost see unicorn hairs—that the compartment door opened again.

Neville came to the two of them again, only this time accompanied by a young girl who had changed into a new Hogwarts robe.

"Did any of you see a toad? Neville lost a toad. She said, her tone domineering.

She has bushy, unkempt brown hair, shaggy and, well, a pair of front teeth.

"I'm sorry, we didn't see it." Shelley said with a smile. The first assembly of the magic iron triangle, no, it will be the iron four corners in the future.

"Oh. Are you casting a spell? Let's see. ”

She sat down, to Shelley's left.

"Daisies, sweet cream, and sunshine, turn this stupid fat mouse yellow." Ron chanted the incantation and waved his wand, but the rat didn't change.

The speckled gray fur seemed to be mocking something, and it was sleeping soundly.

"Are you sure that is really a spell?" The little girl asked.

"Doesn't look good, does it? I've tried a few simple spells at home - just practicing - and they all worked, Hogwarts is a great school, I mean, I was so surprised and a little apprehensive when I was announced, so I memorized all the textbooks, for example. She spoke quickly, then pointed her wand at Harry, "Fix it." ”

Harry's old glasses were suddenly as good as new, and in fact they were new again.

"Much better, isn't it? My name is Hermione Granger, by the way, what's your name? ”

"Ron Weasley."

"Harry Potter."

"Shelley Joyce. Nice to meet you. ”

"Fortunately." Hermione's tsundere look very cute.

"Do you know which house you're going to be sorted into? I've heard that Gryffindor is good, Dumbledore graduated there, and Ravenclaw isn't too bad......," she looked at Ron and Harry, "You'd better get your robes back on, we're almost there." As for me, I'm going to keep looking for the toad!"

"Can I find it together?" Shelley paused, her eyes shining: "Maybe I can find it faster." ”

"Well, great, let's go."

Following Hermione's small figure, he found Neville in the opposite compartment.

After looking for a while, it was already dark. In the midst of mountains and woods, the train slowed down.

Hogsmeade Station, it's here!
