Chapter 15: The Father Laughs

For the remaining two months of the summer vacation, Love's cottage was turned into a study room, where he, Hermione, and her governess, Sister Fawkesie, spent a fulfilling time.

On weekdays, in addition to practicing magic spells and reading textbooks, their main pastime is to play the magical games that Faxie brought with them, such as wizard chess and crackling and exploding cards.

After playing all kinds of games, Love only found the entertainment in the wizarding world to be monotonous.

'When I have time, I'm going to make a card game like Wizard Kill.' He thought so.

Love and Hagrid were also disconnected, and he often borrowed Foxie's owl to send him letters. From Hagrid, Love heard many interesting stories about the wizarding world, the most exciting of which were "Savior", "The Boy Who Never Died", "Voldemort's Nemesis" - Harry Potter was confiscated from Hogwarts by his aunt and uncle.

"There really is such a stupid person." Sister Faulcy exclaimed, "What do they think that just destroying the admission letter can keep their children from going to Hogwarts?" Letters from Hogwarts are magical, and if the recipient does not receive the letter, then Hogwarts will continue to send the letter until the child receives the letter, or the school sends someone to inform them. ”

"Who knows?" Love shook his head: "However, according to the law here, the guardian of the minor does have a strong say in the school choice of the ward. ”

Uncle Vernon has an absolute say in what middle school Harry attends. Before Hogwarts sent the letter, Uncle Vernon had already put Harry in contact with a comprehensive secondary school, and if it weren't for the owl letter, Harry would definitely have a completely different life.

"Is there really a student who turns down an invitation from Hogwarts?" Hermione said it was hard to imagine anyone who would pass away the opportunity to enter the wizarding world.

Speaking of guardians, Faulcy is reminded of Love's tortuous family relationships.

Then she realizes a question: does Love's dad know that his child is going to a magic school?

After the question was raised, the living room fell silent.

Hermione and Faulcee both stared at Love's face with wide eyes, "Love, haven't you ever told your dad about Hogwarts?!" ”

Ralph:......

"He's very busy, so you don't need to bother him with this little thing, right?" Love smiled awkwardly, making sure he hadn't told his dad about his Hogwarts offer.

"I should still say it, after all, you won't be back until at least Christmas." Hermione began to worry about the Moen family's father-son relationship.

As long as the eyes are not blind, it is not difficult to see that the relationship between the Moen father and son is not normal: how can a father let his eleven-year-old child live alone? After two months of getting along, Hermione noticed that Mr. Moen hadn't even called Love. Only the housekeepers, cooks, and domestic servants who come to the house on time every day can prove that Love also has a father. Other times it's as if the father didn't exist.

"That's right, Love, and there are a lot of things you have to face." Faulcy said seriously: "Don't leave regrets for your future self, don't regret it until you lose it." ”

In the face of the persuasion of the two girls, Love thought for a moment and thought that what they said made sense, although he doubted that his father would not find out if he went to Hogwarts for the previous year, but he should have told him about it.

So he walked over to the phone and dialed a phone number that he had always remembered but rarely called.

"It's me, Love Moen, I'm going to talk to my dad about something." After the phone was connected, Love said in a flat tone with a blank face.

He knew very well that the person on the other side of the phone could not be his father, but only a secretary, an assistant or something.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Moen is in a meeting right now, and I can convey something for you." Sure enough, there was a capable female voice on the other end of the phone.

"You tell him I'm going to a school called Hogwarts, and I'm going to have to ask him to quit here." Love rolls his eyes when he hears his dad having another meeting, but he thinks it's a good thing not to have to face his father.

"Huh?" The assistant on the other end of the line was stunned. The assistant who was offered an internship at one of the UK's top law firms was no fool, and it only took her a moment to realize the seriousness of the problem and make her own judgment: she should inform Mr. Moen immediately.

"Please wait, please don't hang up just yet, I'll go find Mr. Moen." After leaving such a paragraph, the other end of the phone fell silent.

Love turned his head and grimaced at Hermione and Faulce, as the two little girls were stunned by the strange conversation.

"The first time I saw my son, I had to make an appointment when I called my dad." Hermione's expression was complicated, and she looked completely eye-opening.

Love wanted to say something, but at this moment an unfamiliar male voice came from the other end of the phone: "You're going to Hogwarts school?" ”

"Yes." Love remembered that it seemed to be his cheap dad's voice, and he told him in a positive tone that he was going to Hogwarts.

"Are you sure?" There was silence on the other end of the phone for two seconds, and then this sentence popped up.

"Sure."

"Okay."

Doodoooooo –

The phone hung up.

Faulksi, Hermione: ?!

The two looked at Love in disbelief and were speechless for a long time.

The silence in the living room was shattered by the sound of a car horn, and Love looked at Hermione and smiled at her, "Miss Granger, looks like you should go home, can you take your family's ride to the train station tomorrow?" ”

"Of course." Hermione's face was blank, and she hadn't recovered from the conversation she had just had.

After Hermione left, Senior Sister Faulksie also went upstairs to wash, and everyone had to get up early to go to the train station tomorrow, so she needed to rest early tonight. Love, on the other hand, sat on the sofa and took stock of his summer gains.

Senior Sister Foxie is conscientious, and after a summer vacation, Love and Hermione have already reviewed all the lessons they will learn next semester, so there is already a long list of spells under the [Mastering Magic] column in Love's system:

Lockpicking Charm (Level 4), Fire Spell (Level 3), Softening Charm (Level 3), Cleanup Charm (Level 2), Levitation Charm (Level 3), ......

These spells, as well as Hermione and Fawxie's two friends, are Love's confidence in the wizarding world.
