Hagrid then took him to buy other things, robes, cauldrons, books, herbs, and a calm, handsome-looking raven.

After returning Gretel and the purchases back to the orphanage, Hagrid handed Gretel a purse of money.

"Gretel, Hogwarts offers 30 Galleons every school year, and after the purchase of today, there are 3 Galleons and 12 Sico 20 Nats left.

The 20 Galleons in the purse bag are a private grant from Professor Dumbledore to you and hope you have a nice holiday.

When you come to Hogwarts, be sure to come to my cottage and try the crust cake I made.

My hut is on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, you know, I'm the hunting ground warden at Hogwarts, and I'm in charge of the disobedient children in the Forbidden Forest. ”

Hagrid, who had successfully completed the task of inviting young wizards on behalf of Hogwarts, looked so rosy and excited that he didn't even wait for Gretel to thank him, waving his umbrella and disappearing outside the orphanage.

"Okay, thanks, goodbye Hogwarts." Gretel struggled to carry the big bag, "Gretel's mother, I'm back." ”

——

"In the future, this room will be reserved for you to use, I don't know how many years you can live in, when you grow up, this room will be too small, I will ask the children not to disturb you."

While Hagrid took Gretel to Diagon Alley for shopping, Mrs. Swann cleaned the attic of the orphanage.

"Brother McT's won't bother us, he showed us flowers two days ago."

"Brother Mack, this is the flowers I picked, you can smell the flowers when you are tired of studying, and I will come to you every day to change fresh flowers in the future."

"Brother Mack, I mopped the floor......"

"I'm me, I'm wiping the table......"

"And me"

Without waiting for these little hairy heads to show their merits one by one, Gretel pulled out a packet of candy from the package and stuffed it into the eldest child in the little hairy head.

"Let's go play, give them the sugar to eat, let them eat it early, the current weather is easy to attract insects if you don't eat it quickly."

——

Mid-August.

There was a bang in the attic of the welfare home, and then a puff of green smoke squeezed out of the crack in the window.

"Brother McT's playing magic again." The children who were laughing in the open space in front of the welfare home looked back, then turned their heads and played by themselves.

Only Mrs. Swann hurried to the attic and knocked on the door of Gretel's room.

"Mother Gretel, I'm fine, it's just that there's a circuit connection error, I'll just write a letter to Professor Dumbledore later to ask."

Gretel came out of the room, tilted his head and smiled embarrassedly.

Mrs. Swann took out a handkerchief from her pocket and wiped the black ash from his face, "I don't know what you're going to do, but you must keep yourself safe, by the way, come down to dinner today, the little ones have complained to me privately that they haven't eaten with you for a long time." ”

Glitter was stunned for a moment, "Okay, I'll have dinner with everyone today, so you don't have to send me to a room." ”

Mrs. Swann rubbed his head lovingly, "Then I'll go and prepare, today a child was adopted, and a large batch of donations was sent, today we will have a good meal, and you will leave in half a month." ”

"It's alright, Mother Gretel, I'll be back for Christmas, and while I don't know why the wizard had Christmas, we can be reunited."

Mrs. Swann patted him angrily and went downstairs with a smile.

——

"Dear Headmaster Albus Dumbledore,

The weather is really nice today, I hope you have a nice day, sorry to bother me with a letter on such a sunny day.

But you know, I've corresponded with you so many times, and you know exactly what I'm doing.

I'm writing this time because I'm having another problem and I'd love to hear from you.

I've read the ancient magic theory you recommended to me last time, and the configuration of the circle you mentioned really helped me a lot, and now the problem is when it comes to analyzing the circle of the Floo Network......

Also, once again, I wish you a great day.

Yours sincerely, Mike Gretel. ”

Putting away the pen, Glitter carefully dried the ink, and the raven Sebas was already jumping and ready.

"Sebas, come back early, I'll leave you food."

The window opened, and a black line crossed the sky, and Gretel tidied up his desk and decided to go downstairs to relax his brain, which had been tense for half a month.

——

While Gretel was helping Madame Swann prepare dinner, Dumbledore received a letter from Mike Gretel.

Truth be told, if Dumbledore had only thought that Gretel's magical potential was better than Tom Riddle's in the beginning.

Now Dumbledore can be sure that this child, who also came from a welfare institution, has a much better mind than Tom Riddle.

At least, Tom Riddle was still obsessed with the magic of magic in his first grade, and had not studied the nature of magic, let alone wanted to change or invent something.

As for the issues mentioned in the letter, Dumbledore was also a little head-scratching for a while, after all, as a pure-blood native to the wizarding world, he had not thought of studying something he was accustomed to in life in the past few decades.

If it weren't for the communication with Gretel in the past half month, he wouldn't even have understood what the principle of this commonplace Floo network is based on.

If Glitter was asking about pure magic, even if it was black magic, which was now despised by the wizarding world, he would be able to answer the truth.

Dumbledore pondered for a moment, replied with a letter he needed to study, and after feeding Sebas the raven a piece of food belonging to Fawkes, Dumbledore enclosed a notebook from his younger years of studying the nature of magic.

Of course, Dumbledore had deleted the study of the dark arts.

After the raven left, Dumbledore studied magic for a long time, and it wasn't until Professor McGonagall came in that he stopped what he was doing.

Minerva McGonagall's face was full of worry, "Albus, I'm worried, you know, like you said a long time ago, that guy is also such a likable, but in the end ......"

Dumbledore pushed his glasses, "Minerva, it's different, that kid is different from Tom, his heart is full of enthusiasm, you see, as a little wizard in the Muggle world who is in contact with magic for the first time."

Instead of studying the powerful or interesting spells, he immersed himself in studying the Floo Net, which was briefly mentioned in The Theory of Magic and the Modern History of Magic, and even the money I gave him was replaced by books at the Blotted Bookstore.

Do you know what he wants to do? ”

Professor McGonagall didn't speak, just frowned slightly, waiting for Dumbledore's explanation.

"The kid wanted to separate and miniaturize Floo's communication function, just so that he could talk to Mrs. Swan Gretter every day.

Oh, Mrs. Swan Gretel, the director of St. Mary's Welfare Institute, where little Gretel was born, or rather, the adoptive mother of little Gretel. ”

"Oh?" Professor McGonagall suddenly became curious about the student who had won the attention of Albus Percival Wolfrick Brian Dumbledore, the Headmaster of Hogwarts, the Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot, and the current strongest white wizard in the wizarding world.

It can be said that in the past half month, Glitter has received much more attention from Dumbledore than the destined savior, Harry Potter, the boy who will also enter school this year.
