Chapter 3: Meet Hagrid in Diagon Alley

Bai Zhenyu glanced at his father: "Are you begging someone to do something?" ”

"Do you know why you're doing this?" Bai Haowei asked rhetorically.

"Because the status of an international student is not very high-profile."

"That's just part of the reason." Bai Haowei said seriously: "The more important reason is because you are rooted." ”

Bai Zhenyu nodded, he knew this, although his grandfather was retired, he was still very influential in the domestic magic world, and his grandmother's ear was injured during the foreign magic war, and his parents are now in important positions.

Bai Zhenyu, who was born in such a family, will naturally take this mission seriously, at least not treason.

Bai Zhenyu sighed, originally he wanted to go to Hogwarts with a tourist mentality, but now it seems that he is thinking too much.

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is still the most famous school of wizardry in the wizarding world today.

Twenty years ago, the school was only for young wizards born in Great Britain, and it has been one of the core institutions of Great Britain, or the entire Western wizarding world.

Being able to study there, in addition to exchanges, is also a good opportunity to break into the core of the British Ministry of Magic.

If the previous international students were just going to test it, then Bai Zhenyu's study abroad time will have to make some small moves.

Bai Zhenyu sighed, as a little wizard who had a sense of identity with Huaxia Kingdom, he naturally would not refuse such a request: "Say, what is the task?" ”

Bai Haowei put it in his son's ear and said, "Investigate the state of Evan Sean." ”

"It's as simple as that?"

"It's as simple as that."

"Who is this Evan Sean? How come I haven't heard of him before? ”

Bai Haowei said: "Now it is estimated that most of the wizards in the wizarding world of Great Britain have forgotten his existence.

"Even if I remember, I just remember that he was a little-known demon in ancient times.

"However, the demon's statement is the official statement of the wizarding world of Great Britain a long time ago, that he is actually a dark wizard.

"Later, I don't know what happened, he was sealed, and as far as we know, his seal seems to be showing signs of loosening.

"It cannot be ruled out that this is a conspiracy against us, and if his seal is deliberately lifted and banished to our kingdom, it will be a great disaster.

"Even if you don't, it's a huge instability."

He also advised: "You can only listen to these words, and you must not express them in any form of writing, and you must not communicate with anyone." ”

Because Bai Zhenyu was not a staff member of the Ministry of Magic, Bai Haowei did not call him to the Ministry of Magic to give orders.

It's the same at home, the circle at home is complete, and you don't have to worry about any form of listening.

Bai Zhenyu nodded: "I know." ”

He asked, "Do you have more details?" ”

"We know so much at the moment, and if you can find out more detailed information, it is also a valuable piece of information."

After the restaurant was cleaned up, the father and son went back to rest as if they were all right.

Bai Zhenyu looked at the moon in the night sky, unable to sleep for a long time, this magical world was not the same as he imagined, but he was not surprised.

Where there are people, there will be strife.

Wizards are also human.

In the next few days, Bai Zhenyu began to eat frantically.

First, I said goodbye to my grandfather, grandma, and uncle, and sat at a big table.

Then Grandpa's colleagues came to celebrate, then Grandma's colleagues came to celebrate, and then Father and Mother's colleagues came to celebrate.

Most of these people Bai Zhenyu didn't know, and he just bowed his head to eat after the banquet, and the red envelopes he gave couldn't reach him anyway.

On August 6, Bai Zhenyu followed Zhang Qiu's ancestors and grandchildren on a journey to Great Britain.

When packing his luggage, Bai Zhenyu brought a lot of Chinese patent medicines, which are said to be in high demand in Great Britain.

In China, it is used to go out in the "light escape array", not Floo powder, but it is just as easy to use, and it can be used by many people.

The public long-distance light escape array is in a quaint hall, which is similar to the train station, and the crowds are dense.

The staff commanded everyone and used the formation in turn.

As the name suggests, the Light Escape Array is a kind of magic array, the magic text and array diagram are engraved on marble, and several array eyes are inlaid with gemstones.

Bai Zhenyu followed the instructions and stood in the Light Escape Array with Zhang Qiu, he touched Xiao Fei's head: "Hey, hey, hey, the transnational Light Escape Array, I haven't sat on it!"

"When you come back and see other dogs, you can brag to them as much as you want."

"Wow!" Xiao Fei seems to understand what the master means.

After everyone was ready, Bai Zhenyu smiled and waved his hand to the family members who came to see them off.

Bai Haowei and his family asked for leave to see them off, as well as Bai Zhenyu's grandparents, grandparents and grandparents came.

Originally, the family was still talking and laughing, but when the Light Escape Array was about to start, Bai Zhenyu's mother couldn't help but burst into tears.

First, I feel that my son has grown up, and second, my son is going to go far away, and he is somewhat reluctant.

Bai Zhenyu was just about to comfort his mother, when the staff next to him said: "Sick! ”

When the light curtain fell, the surroundings of the magic array immediately became colorful, and in the blink of an eye, it was already thousands of miles away.

In the past, when domestic wizards went to Europe on business, they had to go to the country of Tianji or the country of sticks, and from there they used Floo powder to transfer to the "Floo Network" of Western wizards.

Since the implementation of the "One Belt, One Road" strategy, there has been a direct light escape array to Rome, and then from Rome to Great Britain with Floo powder.

This not only saves a lot of time, but also eliminates the need to pay "tolls".

Zhang Qiu's grandfather's name is Zhang Weishan, he used to work in the Ministry of Magic in China, because his son and daughter-in-law settled abroad, Zhang Weishan's wife died early, and he went to Great Britain to live with his son's family after he retired.

However, every year during Zhang Qiu's summer vacation, the old man will take his granddaughter back to China for a walk.

Zhang Qiu's family lives in a townhouse, the home is very spacious, the decoration is also very exquisite, and it seems that he has some family background.

Zhang Qiu's father was a businessman in the wizarding world, and his mother worked in the Ministry of Magic, and neither of them was at home.

When he came to the guest room, Bai Zhenyu looked at the European-style decoration of the room, and his aesthetics were a little unbearable for a while.

At dinner in the evening, Bai Zhenyu met Zhang Qiu's parents.

is similar to the situation in Bai Zhenyu's family, Zhang Weishan is very majestic, Zhang Qiu's parents have heard of Bai Zhenyu for a long time, and they also take good care of him.

After settling in London, Zhang Qiu took Bai Zhenyu to Diagon Alley to buy textbooks and equipment.

Bai Zhenyu also understood why his grandfather asked him to come early, because the school uniform, of course, Hogwarts called the uniform, needed to be customized.

Looking at the not very wide street, Bai Zhenyu was somewhat disappointed.

The magic commercial street in China is built simple and elegant, with wide roads, which is no different from the characteristic commercial streets of the ordinary world, and it looks like it is tall.

Diagon Alley, on the other hand, is relatively narrow, surrounded by bustling wizards in wizarding robes, and time seems to have frozen in the Middle Ages.

In the crowd, Bai Zhenyu saw a tower-like man, he had long beard and curly hair, and was wearing a gray trench coat, looking like a giant beast.

"Is that Hagrid?" Bai Zhenyu asked Zhang Qiu in English.

Since coming to the UK, Bai Zhenyu has begun to communicate with Zhang Qiu in English, striving to adapt to the environment here as soon as possible.

"It's really Hagrid!" Then Zhang Qiu was a little strange: "How do you know Hagrid?" ”
