Chapter Forty-Nine: On the Train
Snort –
The sound of steam belching came from the front of the crimson Hogwarts Express, white smoke billowed, and the voices of the crowd were bustling.
The children are saying their last goodbyes to their families, or they are already meeting up with their peers to tell interesting stories about the holidays.
"Oh, Neville!! You've left Levif here! An old woman walked briskly to the train with a bag on her shoulder and a fat toad in her hand.
A little fat man with a round face leaned out of the car window: "Oh, grandma, it scared the hell out of me, I thought it ran away again." ”
"You lost it, it wasn't it that ran away!" The old woman corrected. Then he added: "When you get to school, remember to take care of yourself." ”
"I will!" Neville nodded.
"You won't! I mean, remember to find the teacher when you encounter something, don't be stupid like a fly without a head. ”
"Oh... Well..."
The train started and the mothers were waving to the train, and their younger siblings were crying and laughing, and ran forward with the train until the train sped up and she was left behind, still waving to her brother and sister who were going to Hogwarts.
"Alright, don't worry." Muen looked at Chris, who lowered his arm.
"I can't help it, as long as I think about seeing my children at Christmas, I always feel empty in my heart." Chris laughed, his gaze still lingering on where the train had disappeared.
Then his face darkened slightly, and he waved his hand: "She hasn't been to such a far place yet." ”
After finishing speaking, he shook his head: "Forget it, let's go." Have a drink and go? ”
"Wine or coffee?" Mu En asked, "I think it's wine." ”
"I'm going to drive." Chris said, turning the corner: "Aren't you worried?" It is also said that it was a neighbor who sent Pete, not his relatives. ”
"I'm not worried." Muen shook her head, "I'm going to Hogwarts in a while." ”
"What?"
"That's right, the Headmaster of Hogwarts said he had a job for me, and I agreed." Mu En nodded, and walked out of King's Cross Station with Chris: "That's why I say you shouldn't worry too much. ”
A stone fell in Chris's heart: "Okay, I'm relieved that you're here." ”
"The teachers at Hogwarts are still very good, even if I'm not there, you can rest easy."
"With acquaintances, the feeling in my heart is different after all."
……
On the train, Harry and Hermione found a separate compartment, and after entering, Harry first put his suitcase on the cabinet, and then helped Hermione put her luggage one by one
"Harry, is this all your baggage?" Hermione looked curiously at Harry's suitcase, which looked like a normal suitcase, tan, leather, and brass locks.
It's the same as what her dad used on a daily basis.
"This is a gift I received at Christmas last year, and it was given by a friend of Uncle Muen." Harry explained, "There were a few spells cast on it, so it could put a lot of stuff in it. ”
"Oh, well, I thought your clothes were in that little cloth bag." Hermione said.
"No, I'll just put some of my belongings in it right now."
Harry didn't want to say much about it, it might seem like he was showing it off. And for these things given by others, which have nothing to do with his own ability, he feels that there is nothing to show off.
If you want to show off, you should also show off what you have obtained with your ability.
The two sat in the carriage, chatting with each other, both nervous about their upcoming trip to Hogwarts.
Although the book says that the gap between a young wizard from an ordinary person and a young wizard in the wizarding world is not too big, neither of them believes it very much.
Not much of a gap? Unless these peers in the wizarding world don't learn anything from birth to the present!
Is this possible?!
"By the way, Hermione. I would suggest that it is better not to use the word Muggle. Harry suddenly said solemnly, "Uncle Munn told me that Muggles are actually a scornful term for non-spellcasters by wizards, but now it's normalized. ”
Hermione shut her mouth suddenly, she had just said the word Muggle.
With Harry's reminder, she suddenly remembered what the guy she had met that day at Lady Millgold's robes had called her father.
"Well, Harry, you're right." Hermione was a little annoyed: "I see that those books are all Muggles and Muggles... So I'm also..."
"It's nothing, Uncle Muen generally calls ordinary people or non-spellcasters." Harry said, remembering the first time Muen had spoken to him.
"Don't use the word Muggle" was the first thing Uncle Muen said to him in such a serious way.
Bang Dong –
The door to the cubicle was violently pulled open, and a familiar, disgusting face appeared in the doorway.
Emaciated cheeks, blonde hair combed back, and that nasty arrogant expression still hung on his face.
Moreover, the clothing is somewhat outdated.
"Harry Potter, finally seeing you." Draco walked slowly into the cubicle, and behind him stood two Humpty Dumpty piers to the left and right, and they were particularly ugly-looking, standing on either side of Draco, like bodyguards.
"Oh, this is Crabbe, this is Goyle." Draco casually introduced.
"I've been looking for you since I got in the car."
Harry stood up, stood in the cubicle and said, "Do you want a gift?" No, I've accepted your apology. ”
Malfoy's pale face suddenly flushed red, and he nodded with some gritted teeth: "Okay, good!" That's right, I'm here to give you a gift. I'll send you a lesson – a lesson! ”
With that, Crabbe and Goyle pounced on him from left to right.
"Harry!" Hermione exclaimed.
Draco said proudly, "I want to tell you, don't just because you're the famous Potter that you think you can go against the Malfoy family." ”
Bang –
The next moment, scarlet blood splattered on Draco's pale face.
Harry slammed his fist into Crabbe's nose, causing him to fall back in pain and blood splattered.
Harry's strength wasn't that great, but again, the two little fat men weren't very fierce.
However, Goyle's fist also struck, and Harry put his arms in front of him to block it, only to feel a little pain. What followed was a hook in the middle of the waist and abdomen.
But in the blink of an eye, the two little fat men were rolling on the ground and howling.
Malfoy wiped the blood from his face, and then he came back to his senses, and his face turned a little whiter, and he staggered back, and quickly crouched down to help the two guys up.
The three of them almost crawled out of the cubicle.
Before Hermione could react, she had only seen the two boys rush towards Harry, and she stood up to help, and then the two of them fell.
"Harry, are you alright?" Hermione said hurriedly.
"Everything works." Harry rubbed his forearm in relief, and sat back down on the couch in the compartment.
Seeing that Harry was fine, the anxiety on Hermione's face did not fade: "Oh my God, you beat them all to blood." This is against the school rules, it's... They're not going to send you back. ”
"No, it's fine." Harry said lightly, "Don't worry, even if you really break some school rules, you won't have to send the little wizard back." ”
