This is the content of the first page of Hogwarts' admission letter that Harper took from the owl on the windowsill, looking at the two familiar names and smiling slightly, so nostalgic! Grandpa Albus, Grandma Minerva, we're going to meet soon. Then the second page opens:

Harper closed the letter, took out a blank piece of paper, and prepared to reply "Dear Grandma Minerva, Zhan Xinyue." It's been a long time, please don't be too surprised with Grandpa Albus, I remember everything when I was a kid, especially that night, and I hope to have a good chat with you when school starts. I'm doing well in Dursley, don't worry, I don't know if the godfathers are okay? Why didn't you even come to see me? I really have a lot of questions I want to ask, even though I've read the letters left by Grandpa Albus.
I'm sorry, I'm glad to receive the admission letter from your school, and I'm very honored to go to school, but I don't know where to buy the student supplies mentioned in the letter, can you write back to tell me the detailed address? Looking forward to your reply!
Yours sincerely, Harper Potter."
He enveloped the finished letter, handed it to the owl who was still waiting, and touched its head, "I'm sorry, I don't know what you like to eat?" But I'm still going to trouble you to bring this letter back, okay? ”
The owl nodded with the letter in his mouth, turned and flew away. Harper sat back at her desk and picked up the drawing paper, planning to draw more and save it for Dailey before school started, so as not to have time to rush to the manuscript after school, because the title of the book on the second page could already be associated with her future study life. The previous book, Jim Bob Sherwood, was finished at the beginning of the year, and the response was good, and the publisher was ready to animate, and now she is drawing the second book, "Wizards of Waverly Place", her life experience in her previous life. When I went to the United States to sign the sale, I had already determined that this was a completely different time and space from my previous life, so I didn't worry about attracting the attention of Russo, who is a magical family, because there was no home in my previous life.
Just as the comic was about to mess up Uncle Kelbo's wizarding lesson with Alex Russo, the owl sent Minerva a reply, "Dear Harper, I'm relieved to hear that you're doing well, although I don't know how you can remember when you were a child, but I don't think it's a good thing for you, we regret the events of that night, and I think you must not want to remember it." I've already made your request with Albus, and he's looking forward to talking to you.
As for where to buy student supplies, our school will send a teacher to take you to Diagon Alley, which is the busiest shopping street in our wizarding world, where you can buy all the items you need at once, and of course there are some interesting goods, if you have a favorite, I miss your mother Lily, who has always been one of the best students in school, and of course your father too. I hope you are as immersed in the ocean of knowledge as Lily is, and I look forward to meeting you! The entry method of Diagon Alley is attached below for reference.
P.S. Diagon Alley is located in the Leaky Cauldron Bar at 1 Diagon Alley in London, and when you enter the bar, you will find a small walled patio on all sides, one of which leads to the shopping street of Diagon Alley, and the code can be found by the bar owner Hannah Abbott.
The teacher who will bring you will arrive at 9 am in 2 days.
Minerva McGonagall”
Harper received the reply, went downstairs and called Dailey, asking her to come home two days later. Then I went back to my room and thought about what I was going to bring to school.
Two days later, at 9 o'clock, there was a knock on the door of Dursley's house, Petunia thought it was Morris, and the moment she opened the door, the whole person was stunned, "Severus Snape, why are you?" What are you doing here? You're not welcome here! ”
"It's been a long time, Petunia Evans, it's Dursley now, it seems like you're still as stupid as ever, of course I'm here to pick up Lily's daughter, Harper Potter, to buy something for school." Severus said impatiently.
"What goes to school? We don't know! You hurry up, there's no way I'm going to let her go to some wizarding school, you don't want me to pay for her to go down the same old path as Lily, never. Petunia yelled at Severus.
"Aunt Petunia, if a guest comes to me, you should come and ask me, instead of making your own claims, besides, you seem to have forgotten that I don't need you to support me now, and I have an income, not even less than my uncle. I must go to Hogwarts, you can't stop me! Harper went downstairs to hear Petunia trying to stop herself from going to school, looking up at Severus, an emaciated figure in a black robe, with straight hair, eyes that gave a cold, unfathomable look, a sallow complexion, and a large hooked nose. Hello, I'm Harper Potter, what do you call you? ”
Looking at the face that closely resembled Lily, except for the eyes and hair, Severus involuntarily reached out and touched Harper's face and muttered, "It's so similar, it's too similar." ”
Harper looked at the hand touching his face and took a step back, "Uh, hello, you haven't said what your name is?" ”
Severus came back to his senses, "Severus Snape, the Potions professor at Hogwarts, I'm here to take you to buy student supplies today, I hope you don't waste my time. ”
"Oh, of course, Professor Snape, but I'll ask you to wait a little longer, I've got someone to come along." As soon as Harper finished speaking, a silver sedan pulled up on the side of the road, "Alex, sorry, it's late. Dailey was wearing a white suit and skirt, and her high heels were "clucking".
"Just in time, you're going out with us like this? Don't scare your feet for a while! Harper was heavily dressed for today.
"What are you scared, scared, scared..."Dailey was so frightened that she almost didn't stand still, but Harper was able to hold her up with a magical current. She watched Harper snap her fingers,
The clothes changed in an instant - the top was wearing a yellow striped T-shirt, and the bottom was a pair of brown leggings. He also held a stack of sketches in his hand, "What are you, this, this?" Is it magic? ”
"Get in the car first and talk as you go. I'm sorry, I need to be wronged Professor You are riding with us, this editor in charge of mine doesn't know magic. Harper handed Dailey the stack of sketches and hopped back to the car.
Dailey, who had come back to his senses, returned to his shrewd and capable appearance, and stretched out his hand to signal Severus to go with him, "Professor, please." Dailey sat in the driver's seat, and Severus opened the backseat door and sat next to Harper.
During the drive to Diagon Alley, Harper informs Dailey of the fact that she is a wizard and is about to go to the wizarding world to study, as well as the handover of the manuscript - using the usual courier owl in the wizarding world, to prepare Dailey a little. Along the way, Severus listened quietly, not saying a word, occasionally frowning slightly at the content of their conversation.
