After receiving Dumbledore's reply again, Glitter decided to put aside his analysis of the magic configuration of the Floo Net for a while and concentrate on studying the textbooks of the first year of the Young Wizard, such as "Standard Charms (Elementary)", which contains a lot of interesting magic.

Dumbledore felt that Gretel's current knowledge reserve was still quite poor, limited to the boundaries of a young wizard's magical knowledge, and analyzing and modifying a mature magic was not something that a young wizard who was new to the wizarding world could do.

Even with his help, it would not be enough to complete the analysis of the configuration of the Floo network in a short time, let alone revise and improve it.

In other words, he is now a civil science who only has ideas and no theories, and his ideas are very strange, and it seems to make sense, but once he really does it, he will only be blind.

Of course, the wording of Dumbledore's letter was very tactful

Another advantage of Gretel is that he listens to persuasion, and when he encountered problems analyzing the magic configuration of the Floo Network for three days in a row, Glitter decisively stopped.

But he didn't give up, and decided to go ahead and do his own research after he had enough reserves.

Now there are two most urgent problems to be solved in front of Gretel, one is solid knowledge.

It was only after receiving Dumbledore's notes that he realized his lack of magical knowledge.

For him, a would-be first-year wizard, Dumbledore's notes were really difficult and obscure, and any discussion of magical configurations, verification and speculation of magical theories seemed like a book to him.

There are very few parts that can be understood and absorbed by him, and trying to find relevant books in the Blotte Bookstore is not very rewarding, after all, the main service object of the Blotte Bookstore is a little wizard, and there are not so many advanced books.

Of course, the salesman said that if there was a book that he particularly wanted to have, he could also place an order with them, and they would help find it, but the price was often tens of Galleons, and Gretel, who was shy in his pocket, had to give up.

After all, after the last round of procurement, Dumbledore had little Garon left to fund him, and he couldn't let Dumbledore blow up gold coins by his neck.

Dumbledore seemed to have foreseen his current situation, and several letters strongly recommended that he visit the Hogwarts library at school.

The second problem that needed to be solved was that he only realized it at the Blott bookstore, that he lacked sufficient financial foundation.

Even in the Muggle world, he can outwhelm a hero for a penny, let alone want to do magical research in the wizarding world, which is known to be a bottomless pit.

For him, a little wizard who can almost be said to be destitute, research is like a dream.

Even if the theoretical research in the early stage does not need any other investment except for a haircut for the time being, once the theory is transformed into practice, the economic problem will become a big mountain in front of him.

He had to find a way to get some money, at the very least, to raise enough Galleon to support his research before the theory came to fruition.

But for him, this is not so urgent, after all, he is still young, after all, in his original life plan, before the age of seventeen or eighteen, his main job is only to study.

Now it's just a change of learning from the Muggle world to the wizarding world.

Although he can't become the big capitalist of British orthodoxy in Aramco, it is not bad to become the leading Gretel family in the wizarding world from scratch.

"Hogwarts Express, platform 93/4 at King's Cross? Mike, my good boy, is it so strange for wizards to even train trains? ”

Madame Swann had known a few days ago that Hogwarts would be open on September 1st, but this was the first time she had seen the tickets.

She packed up early this morning, and was ready to take Gretel to the train herself.

Gretel was stunned for a moment when he went downstairs to see Mrs. Swan, for he saw that Mrs. Swann had changed into a nun's gown that only came out of the bottom of the box for Christmas.

The sleeves of that dress were embroidered with the names of all the children who had left St. Mary's Welfare Home.

As the largest transport hub in Great Britain, King's Cross Station handles an incredible number of people every day.

Gretel and Mrs. Swann pushed a small cart and struggled through the crowd.

"Gretel, are you sure your school train departs from here?" Mrs. Swann wondered.

In Mrs. Swan's eyes, there was simply not enough to insert a platform of nine and three-quarters between platforms nine and ten that could stop a train.

But in Gretel's eyes, the fluctuations in the columns were so obvious, and there were very obvious rut marks and stride footprints on the ground in front of the walls.

There was no doubt that the two of them were in the wrong place, and this was the platform for the Hogwarts Express.

"Mother Gretel, believe me, hold on to me, let's rush over together."

Out of trust in Gretel, Mrs. Swann and Gretel clung to the cart tightly.

The two of them ran together, sprinted, and rushed to another space with a wave without any hindrance.

The two looked up together, and the stop sign on the platform nine and three-quarters welcomed the new blood of the wizarding world together, and the express train to Hogwarts stopped by the platform.

Even after all these years of operation, its exterior is still shiny black, with almost no signs of wear and tear.

Mrs. Swann made a prayer gesture and let out a long breath.

"Gretel, what's wrong with you?" It was only at this time that Mrs. Swann noticed that little Gretel's body was a little stiff, and now he was a bit like a little hedgehog about to explode, and he was as gentle as ever.

"I'm fine, Mother Gretel, I'm just, well, a little nervous."

Mrs. Swann didn't feel nervous outside the platform, and rubbed his head, "Study hard at school, and get a few more letters if it's okay." ”

Gretel nodded meekly, but his eyes were fixed on every wizard and wizard who passed him.

After all, in the current situation in the wizarding world, there are indeed many wizards who discriminate against Muggles, and he is worried that any guy will cause harm to Mrs. Swan, whether it is physical or verbal, he will never allow it.

In fact, he didn't want Mrs. Swann to send him off, but Mrs. Swann was so eager that he couldn't say anything if he refused.

So, he was ready to protect Mrs. Swan, and his wand was stuck in the place where he could pull it out.

Even, he didn't mind letting the little cub of the wizard's family feel his 'friendship' for the next seven years.

Of course, even the most stupid wizards will not show discrimination or even attack on Muggles by the Hogwarts Express during the beginning of the Hogwarts school season.

Not to mention, there are also Aurors from the Ministry of Magic roaming around.

Fortunately, until he got in the car, he didn't encounter a bloody provocation.

After saying goodbye to Mrs. Swan, Gretel took out his wand and waved it lightly, and his luggage floated behind him and followed him onto the train.

He hadn't arrived too early, and had walked down the aisle to find it, and there weren't many seats left.

He walked straight to the back of the car, and it was not until the last few cars that it seemed a little empty.

"Anyone? I came in when there was no one. Gretel knocked a few times, but no one answered, and with a smile on his face, he creaked open the car door.

On one side is the red-haired boy, who seems to be hungry and is stuffing snacks into his mouth, and on the other side, with big round glasses and big eyes, staring at the luggage floating behind his head.

"Sorry to interrupt." Glitter decisively pulled the door open and walked away quickly.

Truth be told, he came to Hogwarts to study, and he didn't want to have anything to do with the legendary savior, after all, that meant endless trouble.
