Hogwarts: Jade, stop controlling Harry!

Harry followed Jackie Chan to Jade's room in District 13.

They talked a lot on the way here.

Harry discovered for the first time that not all adults are difficult to communicate with; at least Uncle Dragon was different. He was happy to listen to Harry and give answers and advice.

This left Harry feeling somewhat unsatisfied when he returned to his room.

"If only my aunt and uncle were like you, Uncle Dragon," Harry sighed. "But they don't seem to like me."

Harry seemed a little downcast at this point.

He never understood what he had done wrong, or why the Dursleys hated him so much.

If Harry could accept it before, it became unbearable after he experienced the relationship between Jade and her uncle Jackie Chan.

Harry couldn't help but feel anxious and uncertain.

Hearing Harry say this, Jackie Chan's expression became slightly serious. He squatted down and placed his hand on Harry's shoulder.

"Listen to me, child. You are a sensible, brave, and honest child. Don't blame yourself because of what some people said."

"You've done more than enough! I think if your parents were watching from heaven, they would be so proud to have a son like you!"

Jackie Chan's words were not entirely meant to comfort.

Harry's courage in admitting his identity and his willingness to help the Shadowkhans when they tried to steal the charms already proves he's a good kid.

Hearing Jackie Chan's words of comfort, Harry's previously dejected mood improved considerably. "Thank you, Uncle Jackie."

Jackie Chan nodded, "You're welcome. You can also consider me your uncle, just like Jade."

Hearing this, Harry's eyes lit up. "Really?"

"Of course!" Jackie Chan laughed. "I'd love to have a nephew like you. Alright, you can go back to your room and get some sleep. I'll come back to call you for dinner later. If you need anything, just let me know; I'm right next door."

Harry smiled and nodded.

After Jackie Chan left, Harry turned around and pushed open the door to Jade's room.

Harry's eyes lit up when he saw the spacious room in front of him.

This is much bigger and more comfortable than the stairwell in his Dursley house!

It has a separate bed, a separate wardrobe, a separate desk, and posters of Boy Scouts and movie stars on the walls, as well as a dartboard...

Aside from the style being a bit girly, everything else is perfect!

Harry never imagined that he would have a real room under such circumstances.

Of course, it can't be said to belong to him, as this is Jade's room. However, until his father finds a way to send him back and bring Jade back, it also belongs to Harry.

Harry entered the room out of curiosity. He walked to the desk and glanced at it, where several textbooks and workbooks were placed.

Although Harry also needs to go to school here, he doesn't resist going to school. As the saying goes, as long as he's not staying at the Dursleys' house, he can be anywhere!

But when Harry's gaze swept past the textbook and landed on a calendar in the corner of the desk...

Harry suddenly froze.

Because he clearly saw that the date on the calendar was May 25, 1999, and the date was marked with the word Carnival.

But Harry remembered that before he woke up, it was June 22nd, 1991, the day before Dudley's birthday...

"What's going on? How is this possible?" Harry muttered to himself, completely bewildered.

Could he have slept for eight years?

Regardless, Harry felt he should tell Uncle Dragon.

Thinking of this, Harry hurriedly ran out of the room, went to the next room, and knocked on the door.

Boom boom boom!

The door to the room was quickly opened, and Jackie Chan peeked out. When he saw Jade standing at the door, he was taken aback.

"Harry? What brings you here?"

"There's something I want to tell you," Harry said quickly.

Without hesitation, Jackie Chan replied, "Alright then, come in and let's talk."

After saying that, Jackie Chan stepped aside to make way for Harry, who went inside and found that the room seemed larger and more spacious.

In the center of the room was a strange wooden shelf, with sandbags and other similar items next to it.

Noticing Harry's curious gaze, Jackie Chan smiled and said, "These are the equipment I use for training. Jade also often uses them to train with me and learn kung fu... which is Chinese martial arts."

Harry nodded, a hint of longing in his eyes as he recalled Jackie Chan's skills atop that giant moose balloon.

If he could have that kind of skill, perhaps he wouldn't have to worry about being bullied by Dudley... At least when fighting Dudley, he could put up a good fight.

Harry suddenly remembered something, looked up at Jackie Chan, his expression hesitant and a little apprehensive, "Um... excuse me, could I learn kung fu from you, Uncle Jackie?"

Jackie Chan blinked. "Of course you can, if you want to learn... but I have to tell you beforehand that learning kung fu is not an easy thing. It requires persistent effort and perseverance to make progress."

Harry was surprised that Jackie Chan agreed so readily, and his eyes lit up. "Of course, I'll stick to it!"

Having witnessed Jackie Chan's prowess, Harry naturally had no shortage of motivation.

Jackie Chan smiled but didn't say anything. Instead, he asked, "You said you had something to tell me. What is it?"

Harry then remembered the important matter and hurriedly said, "It's about time! I came here in 1991, and now it's 1999!"

Jackie Chan hadn't paid much attention at first, but when he heard Harry say those words, he was completely stunned.

Until Harry finished speaking in one breath.

Jackie Chan's expression turned very serious. "Harry, what you said is very important... Looks like I'll have to call Dad again!"

.....

Little Huigkin, Surrey!

The Ministry of Magic miscalculated this time; they did not find Harry Potter as quickly as they had anticipated.

Even though a large number of Ministry of Magic employees had searched the surrounding area several times, they still couldn't find any trace of Harry.

People in the department were all talking about it.

Some people say that he truly deserves to be called a savior; the boy who survived such a calamity managed to disappear right under the noses of so many people.

Some people even suspect that Harry Potter was kidnapped by someone, otherwise, with so many people, it's impossible to find a single child.

This situation continued until Arthur Weasley happened to strike up a conversation with the owner of a Muggle store, which brought a turning point!

After hearing Arthur Weasley's description, the Muggle shopkeeper immediately said with certainty, "I saw the boy get on the bus and head towards London."

Arthur Weasley confirmed the discovery several times before immediately telling his superior, who then relayed it to the minister.

As you can imagine, everyone was stunned when they learned that Harry Potter had already left.

Now the entire afternoon's search by the Ministry of Magic has become a huge joke!

The most awkward thing was that more than one Auror had passed by this shop. But without exception, the wizards preferred to believe in magic and in themselves. Not a single one of them thought to ask a Muggle for help.

This is a slap in the face to the Ministry of Magic, and also a slap in the face to Fudge.

The minister's instructions were quickly relayed down.

Very simple!

They were instructed to set out immediately, head to London, and find and bring the boy back before the bus arrived.

Fudge will use any means necessary, he just wants Harry Potter!
