"010" Harry and Ron
Dark, unkempt hair, round-framed glasses, a small man, dressed in a blue plaid shirt, and a small cart with a suitcase and a cage for an owl next to it.
- Harry Potter.
The appearance is very similar to that in the movie, and Ringo recognizes it at a glance.
But here's the difference.
It wasn't Hagrid from the movie who sent Harry here, but Vernon Dursley, who was similar to the original book, walking ahead regardless of it, and turning around and scolding from time to time.
Oh......
Another difference is that the owl in the cage is no longer Hedwig the snowy owl, but a barn owl with a heart-shaped face.
"I'll get you to the car and go."
Sam walked out and put Ringo's luggage and owl on the cart as well.
"No, you can go back, remember, just stabilize your current power, make more friends, feed those councillors from time to time, and use an owl to contact me immediately if there is anything."
Ringo pushed the cart forward.
But he quickly turned around: "Don't always make Daisy angry!" ”
"Roger!"
Sam saluted.
Ringo then entered the station, slowly following Harry, and it didn't take long to reach the platform.
Then Vernon's laughter was heard:
"Alright, there you are, boy. Platform 9 - Platform 10, your platform should be between these two platforms, but it looks like it hasn't been built yet, right? ”
"Hahaha, I wish you a smooth semester ......"
Vernon grinned, looking overjoyed, and his fat body left Harry at breakneck speed, disappearing into the crowd.
Harry was left staring blankly at the signs on the two platforms.
Seemingly......
There is no platform 93/4!
In an instant, this little boy who was used to being treated coldly and bullied since he was a child, and his withdrawn temperament was panicked, and he finally understood why Vernon ran so fast.
- just to deliberately leave yourself here!
What about platform 93/4?
What about the Hogwarts Express?
I...... What am I going to do? Go back? Uncle Vernon must have left...... Can't go back! I can't go to school......
"Sir, do you know platform 93/4?"
He dared to ask the guards, but was quickly reprimanded as a prank.
Ultimately.
Harry could only stand still, watching the people come and go, feeling how out of place he was in the world......
"It's time."
Seeing this, Ringo, who had been watching Harry from a short distance, pushed the cart and walked over: "Excuse me, are you also a first-year freshman?" ”
"What?"
Harry turned around and saw a boy with black hair and black eyes, dressed in a well-fitting gown with a golden pocket watch, also pushing a small cart like himself, with luggage and an owl on it, and he suddenly came to his senses: "Yes, yes I am, and you are also a student of Hogwarts?" ”
Ringo smiled kindly.
Stretching out his hand: "Ringo Shelby, I received a notice from Hogwarts during the summer vacation, it's nice to meet you, what do you call it?" ”
"My name is Harry, Harry Potter."
At this moment, Harry felt that Ringo's smile was the most charming smile he had ever seen, and subconsciously stretched out his two hands, but soon he realized that something was wrong, and awkwardly withdrew one hand, secretly observing Ringo's expression, for fear that Ringo would look down on him - he really didn't have much experience in communication.
Ringo, of course, did not laugh at the other party.
Instead, he shook hands solemnly: "Harry...... Can I call you that? You can also call me Ringo. ”
"Yes."
"So Harry, did you find platform 93/4?"
"I didn't ...... There are no ...... here."
"Didn't you? How could there not be? So how do we get to school? Ringo had a "disappointed" look on his face, but in fact, he had already seen a group of redheads.
Looking at Ringo's expression, Harry felt a hint of apology, as if he had delayed Ringo, and he opened his mouth to say "I'm sorry".
But I'm sorry I haven't said it yet.
was suddenly pulled by Ringo and walked forward passively.
"What's wrong? Forest...... Ringo. ”
"Well, there's someone pushing an owl in front of you, and it looks like it's a wizard......" Ringo pointed to the red-haired Weasleys.
Hear the words.
Harry looked over.
I saw a short, stocky and kind woman, holding a little girl in her hands, followed by four boys pushing luggage - all red-haired except for adults.
The kind woman is still talking:
"It's like this every year, it's full of Muggles, here, Platform 93/4, Percy, you're at the forefront."
The words fell.
The eldest boy stepped forward and ran against a wall in front of him, not pausing to see if he was about to collide...... He didn't bump into it, he disappeared.
"Fred, it's your turn."
The latter two boys seemed to be twins, and one of them immediately complained, "He's not Fred, I'm the one!" ”
"You're embarrassed to call yourself our mother!" Another added.
"I'm so sorry, George." The woman skillfully apologized, and pointed to the wall again.
The boy who was mistaken for "Fred" came out and laughed before he was about to run: "Kidding, Mom, I'm Fred." ”
The twins who finished the joke entered one after another.
There was only the youngest boy left on the scene, with some freckles on his face, but still very milky, and he was also eager to try.
Harry, who had been watching for a while, hesitated to ask if Ringo had stepped forward.
But not waiting for him to act.
Ringo had already dragged him over, and then greeted politely: "Hello, ma'am, we are new students in the first year of Hogwarts, and we just observed your child disappearing from here, excuse me, is this platform 93/4?" ”
"Yes, kid, here it is, are you both first-year students? Coincidentally, so is my family, Ron...... Don't be afraid, just trot all the way in. The woman enthusiastically explained, "Go and give it a try, kid." ”
"Thank you, ma'am."
Ringo ...... at the woman Ron smiled along with Ron on the side.
Then he looked back at Harry: "Harry, I'll come first, you follow me, don't worry, I'm going in and waiting for you." ”
"Hmm." Harry was relieved.
Ringo didn't hesitate any longer.
Having succeeded in befriending Harry, his goal was achieved, and there was no need to be overly restrained for the rest, so he walked over slowly.
First reached out and touched the wall.
Can't get in.
It seems that those who complained about why they trotted all the way in their previous lives were going to be disappointed, but they couldn't get in with a slight touch, probably to prevent Muggles from entering by mistake.
So he took a few steps back and came up with a run.
Call......
A crimson steam locomotive suddenly appeared in Ringo's field of vision, with a sign hanging on the train that read "Hogwarts Express, eleven o'clock", and under the sign was a slow passenger, who looked behind him, and the wall was gone, replaced by an archway that read Platform 93/4.
Didn't look long.
Harry and the Weasleys also appeared.
"Thank you again, ma'am, and Ron and the beautiful little girl." When Ringo saw that the Weasleys were going to get together, he didn't bother, thanked him, and took Harry to the car.
Harry followed in silence all the way.
Didn't speak though.
Everything was forced to do by this newly acquainted Ringo, but he was not disgusted, and his panicked heart was steady.
The eye looks beyond the initial observation of the surrounding environment.
has been chasing Ringo's back.
For a moment, he thought that it would be nice if he could follow Ringo all the time, this new classmate seemed like his own brother - not Dudley, of course.
However.
Just in the moment of crankiness.
He suddenly found that Ringo had disappeared from his view - as if a girl had dragged him away?
What's going on? What to do? Shall I follow?
Harry panicked again.
But soon, the red-haired twins, whom he had just seen, passed by him and reached out his hand:
"Shall we help you carry the salute?"
"Excuse me, thank you."
"You're welcome...... Yes? Lightning Mark, you are the legendary Harry Potter ......"
……
Ringo did disappear.
But it didn't go far.
He had just gotten into the car, and before he could turn around to help the skinny Harry carry his luggage, he was dragged into a compartment by Hermione, who suddenly appeared:
"Ringo, here, you're late......"
"I've got a place for you."
"Come on......"
Syllable.
Ringo was pressed into a seat by Hermione, and there were two children in the carriage, a man and a woman, and the boy looked like a panicked fawn, with a round face full of caution, carefully soothing a toad.
It was Neville Longbottom.
