Chapter 1: Brie Ode

Next Chapter

On the streets of London, on a chair next to a large bookstore, an eleven or twelve-year-old boy is carrying an old but clean crossbody bag, holding a large newspaper, burying his expression between the lines.

"I can't believe that magic really exists in the world."

The boy didn't read the newspaper just now, but was thinking about the events of the previous days, he spread the newspaper on his dangling lap, his pure black eyes flashed with inspiration, he could see excitement, and of course, there was a trace of worry, after all, it was too inconsistent with his memory, and it also turned his life upside down.

Tucking away his short shiny black ear-length hair, the boy lowered his head to cover his eyes once more, as if thinking about something.

And at this time—

"Mr. Oude?"

A dignified and elegant lady in a dark green shawl walked up to the boy with graceful steps.

The boy raised his head, and his characteristic oriental face was very handsome, and he also looked extremely soft, especially when he chuckled, like a breeze and drizzle, which brought a lot of good feelings.

He said, "Is it Ms. Vance, I'm Ode, Brie Ode, well, you can call me Brie." ”

The lady nodded, without making too many expressions, but her eyes were filled with pity, and she said a little kindly: "Well, sure enough, it's the same as Betty said, it's a polite child." ”

"I'm Emmeline Vance, you can call me Emmeline."

Emmeline Vance, Betty's niece, is also a witch, but Betty doesn't know about witches, because Betty is the director of a London welfare home, and she has just asked her niece to handle Brie's schooling.

Because Brie has been adopted by Betty since she was a baby, she is Dean Betty's favorite child, but unfortunately, Betty just passed away some time ago, and the letter asking Emmeline to do her errands became a dead letter.

Emmeline looked at Brie in front of her, thinking of the request letter, and after reading it, she understood that Betty wanted Brie to go to Stonewall Middle School; It wasn't a good school, but it was a good place for the welfare director, Big Brie, but shortly after Betty's death, an owl with a letter from Hogwarts was arriving, disrupting Betty's plans.

"I'm sorry Brie, Betty has a lot of arrangements for you, but I had to take you into the wizarding world because you're a little wizard."

Touching Brie's little head, the extraordinarily soft black hair made Emmeline inexplicably happy.

"Come with me, dear, I think you're ready."

Brie pursed her lips, the confusion and worry in her eyes dissipated, leaving only excitement and yearning, and no one could refuse magic.

"I think so, Emmeline, but I didn't know much about Hogwarts, and to be honest, I never thought there was magic in this world."

Emmeline nodded, falling into the memory that she had never thought about magic and Hogwarts.

"You'll know that Hogwarts has seven of the most amazing years you can bring."

Emmeline took Brie's hand and walked into a very shabby, old-looking pub between the bookstore and the record store, the Leaky Cauldron, and the passers-by around him ignored it, and this was where the magic began.

And Brie said to himself: I originally thought that I could rely on that memory to get a better life.

Brie has always had a secret, and he doesn't dare to tell anyone, lest people call him a monster, but because of this memory, he seems more mature, well-behaved, and endearing than his peers, which is why Betty cares about Brie and treats Brie as her own child.

This memory belongs to a Chinese young man named An Qing, and the memory contains his short life of 22 years old. Like a ball in Brie's mind, as long as Brie has what he wants in his heart and tries to touch it, it can take Brie to experience a memory trip, bringing Brie a lot of knowledge and understanding of the world, but this memory is obviously oriental, not 1991, everything to adapt to Britain still depends on Brie.

At the same time, when touching the memory, the memory will also give Brie a special power.

Brie calls it the force of nature.

This power has made Brie loved by nature, and the animals and plants are very kind to him; He also gained a healthy body because of this power, and he never suffered from illness, even if he was accidentally injured, he could heal quickly under the breeze of nature.

Of course, there may be other effects, but Brie has not discovered them for the time being.

Brie thought it was his body mutated because of his memory, but it seems that it was caused by magic, and Brie's magic source was that memory...

If she didn't have a memory, Brie wondered if she would just go to Stonewall and live like a normal person who would never know about the wizarding world, just as Betty didn't know magic, and Emmeline never told her.

Betty and Brie say that in Betty's eyes, Emmeline is an elegant wife.

And before he knew the magic, Brie didn't dare to completely contact this memory, not only because the memory made him different from ordinary people, but more because he was worried that after accepting all the memories, it would be like taking away, Brie was no longer Brie, but became An Qing.

Therefore, only when necessary, Brie will be cautious about touching memories, and always be vigilant about memories.

Now Brie doesn't dare, until he is sure that he is safe, even if he reads the memory to obtain magical power, Brie will not approach stupidly, Brie is not so hungry, compared to strength, he doesn't want to become another person.

But what Brie didn't know was that after years of contact, Brie had already been affected by his memories, and he was getting close to An Qing in terms of temperament and behavior.

Just like Brie's name: Breeze (breeze), slowly changing him.

Unbeknownst to the wizarding world, Brie's dream was to graduate from Stonewall High School, learn useful knowledge, become an amazing, qualified immigrant, and settle in China!

Brie and An Qing, no one can tell their relationship.

……

"Jingle Bell."

The bell on the door of the bar rang softly, but because the bar was already noisy, no one paid attention, and even those who paid attention looked at it once or twice before retreating, but Brie felt some inquiring eyes looking at him.

Who made him have an oriental face, Brie can't help it.

When Brie looked up, he saw many strange people wearing wizard robes, and his gaze disappeared in an instant, as if his feeling was an illusion.

But because of the magic given by the memory, Brie's perception is very sensitive, and he doesn't think that it was an illusion.

Brie said unnaturally: Is the wizard so strange, Emmeline looks good.

Emmeline also seemed to sense Brie's unnaturalness, she frowned and nodded to Tom, the owner of the bar, and led Green through the crowd towards the backyard.

It wasn't a good place for her to stay because it was a mixed bag.

When she saw some old women in shabby wizard robes drinking Sydney wine and fainting, Emmeline was even more uncomfortable and just wanted to leave as soon as possible.

The bar's owner, Tom, was a withered old man who could count how many yellow-spotted teeth were left in his mouth when he laughed, but his eyes were full of light, and he continued to communicate with a scruffy man at the bar after glancing at Emmeline and Brie.

The man was excited, and said hoarsely, "Oh, it was Harry Potter just now, and oh my God, the boy who didn't die has finally returned to the wizarding world." ”

The man scratched his head, the withered hair on his head kept falling, it seemed that this man had not taken care of himself for a long time, he couldn't figure it out, and said: "But this is different from what Dumbledore said, why is Harry Potter like this, well, I mean weird...... If it weren't for the scar on his forehead, no one would have recognized him. ”

Tom smiled, but with a strange look in his eyes, he calmly wiped the man's hair with a rag, and did not speak, obviously wanting to end the topic.

The bars were full of chattering about Harry Potter, mostly about honors, shaking hands with Harry Potter, looking at his lightning scars, going to school, and some whispered words of mysterious people, which made Brie puzzled.

There is no memory about Harry Potter in Brie's mind, and neither is An Qing, but he didn't think about it, because this is the wizarding world, and it is understandable that there are always some differences, Brie feels that this Harry Potter should be like a star, he has seen An Qing's memory in his mind, in that era, stars can always cause a lot of noise, fans are even more crazy, and passers-by also take all kinds of trivial things about celebrities as talking about them, well, similar to these people in the bar.

And Emmeline has taken Brie to the backyard, which is a small patio surrounded by walls, with nothing but trash cans and weeds, and of course, the wizarding world can't just look at the surface.

Emmeline took out her wand and said, "Count three pieces up the trash can - and two more in the cross—"

"You need to remember this mantra, this is the passage from London to Diagon Alley, Diagon Alley is the wizard's commercial street, we are going to buy your school supplies and wands here, and you will need to come by yourself later."

"If you don't refuse my adoption, I'll be able to bring you every time."

Obviously, Emmeline had considered and acted to adopt Brie, but Brie refused, and Emmeline restarted after a brief encounter with Brie.

Who wouldn't love a handsome and cute well-behaved boy?

"Knock knock!" As Emmeline's words ended, she used her wand three times without waiting for Brie to reply.

As the pounding of the bricks ended, the brick he had knocked shook and began to move, and a small hole appeared in the middle, and the hole grew larger and larger, and in a short time there appeared in front of them a wide archway large enough for Hagrid to pass through, leading to a cobblestone street that winded and had no end in sight.

The streets are lined with shops on the left and right, the sun shines on the eaves, and the chatter is loud and loud, but not many people pay attention to them, because the wall has been opened so many times, and they have learned to ignore it and turn their eyes to the goods that attract them.
