Hogwarts: Jade, stop controlling Harry!
Chapter 17 Xiaoyu plans to go to school!
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Headmaster: Albus Dumbledore (President of the International Magical Union, President of the Wizarding Society, First Class Wizard of the Order of Merlin)
Dear Mr. Potter:
We are pleased to inform you that you have been admitted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Enclosed is a list of required books and equipment.
The semester is scheduled to begin on September 1st. We will await your reply by July 31st.
Sincerely, Ms. Minerva McGonagall, Vice Principal
After reading the letter, many of Xiaoyu's doubts were finally answered. But at the same time, even more questions arose in her mind!
It turns out that the boy named Harry didn't possess any special superpowers, but rather magic!
So, like his father, he is a mage?
However, these are not the most important things. The most important thing is that Xiaoyu saw the signature at the very beginning of the envelope.
"So, you're the headmaster of a magic school?!" Jade stared wide-eyed at Dumbledore, who was sitting to the side.
That sounds much better than Dad!
"That's true, but I prefer to be called Professor rather than Headmaster," Dumbledore said gently.
"Cool! So you're here to pick me up for school, not to drag me back?" Xiaoyu exclaimed, then asked with great interest.
"You mean your aunt's family? It might be a bit abrupt to say this, but they do care about you, especially your Aunt Penny."
Dumbledore hesitated for a moment before answering.
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyu reacted strongly, "Concerned about me? You mean you want me to... to sleep in that little cubicle under the stairs, wearing my cousin's hand-me-downs, is that it?"
Leaving aside other matters for now.
On this point alone, Xiaoyu felt that she could not agree with the principal in front of her.
In Xiaoyu's opinion, this boy named Harry Potter was definitely being abused at his aunt's house.
Just by looking at his cousin's obese figure and then at his own thin appearance, you can tell how miserable Harry's life is.
"I will absolutely never go back there!" Xiaoyu said angrily, crossing her arms.
Dumbledore looked at the child he had personally handed over to Petunia with some surprise. He now understood what Petunia meant when she said Harry had changed.
However, in Dumbledore's view, this change was entirely a good one.
"I apologize for what I just said, Harry," Dumbledore said solemnly, immediately changing his demeanor.
"I completely respect your opinion. If you want to spend this time before school starts, such as in Diagon Alley, that's absolutely fine too."
Hearing this, Jade felt a little embarrassed. After all, she wasn't Harry. Although she didn't know why she had woken up in this boy's body, Jade firmly believed that her father and Uncle Dragon would find a way to bring her back.
Therefore, it seems she shouldn't have made the choice for that boy so hastily.
Of course, Jade did reach a consensus with Harry to some extent: as long as she didn't stay at Aunt Petunia's house, she could go anywhere.
"But I don't have the money to go to school," Xiaoyu said after thinking for a moment.
Xiaoyu was completely broke. She had just put her last change in the taxi.
"I think you don't need to worry about that, Harry. Your parents have left you enough money for your future studies and living expenses," Dumbledore said, then dusted off his robes and stood up.
Then, Dumbledore took out several things that looked like frozen little mice from the pocket of his robe, wrapped in candy wrappers, and handed them to Jade.
"What is this?" Xiaoyu asked curiously, without showing any disgust.
"Ice Mouse, a candy that makes a cool, sizzling sound when you put it in your mouth, would you like to try some?" Dumbledore asked with a smile.
But before he finished speaking.
Xiaoyu realized that it was edible and quickly took it.
Although eating rats sounds disgusting, the little creatures are quite cute, so Xiaoyu doesn't mind giving it a try... After an afternoon of fussing, she's so hungry she could eat a whole cow!
"Thank you! Mmm, it tastes really good!"
Jade tore open the candy wrapper, looked at the straight tail of the ice mouse, and tentatively licked it. After experiencing the refreshing coolness and rich, milky sweetness, her eyes lit up, and she stuffed it directly into her mouth, mumbling to Dumbledore.
Dumbledore smiled with satisfaction, looking pleased that his taste had been appreciated.
"If you like, you can buy more different kinds and flavors of candy in Diagon Alley... but it's best not to eat too much," Dumbledore cautioned.
"Now, it's time for us to set off."
Dumbledore took out his pocket watch, glanced at it, and gestured for Jade to grab his outstretched arm.
"You might feel a little dizzy and weightless later, I hope you won't be scared."
Without hesitation, Jade placed her hand on Dumbledore's arm.
It seems she needs to revise her plans.
Xiaoyu was very interested in the magic school mentioned in the letter. She really wanted to go and see it, so... maybe her father and Uncle Long would come looking for her, and it wouldn't be too late to go back then... Xiaoyu thought to herself.
The next second, she understood why Dumbledore had specifically emphasized not to be afraid.
Xiaoyu felt as if the surroundings had suddenly turned pitch black.
She could clearly feel her body being squeezed, as if she were being stuffed into a small can.
I couldn't breathe at all, and it felt like something was tightly squeezing my chest...
"ah!!!"
Xiaoyu couldn't help but let out a scream...
This feeling didn't last long. In the next second, it was as if she had been poured out of a can. Her toes finally touched the ground, and light appeared in front of her.
"Huff..." Jade was panting lightly, oblivious to her surroundings. Dumbledore raised his hand and gently patted Jade's back to comfort her, "It's alright, we've arrived at Harry's place."
But for the first time, something unexpected happened to Dumbledore.
When the thin boy raised his head, there was no sign of discomfort or fear on his face. On the contrary... he looked excited and turned to look at the somewhat surprised Dumbledore.
"This feels so good, can I do it again?"
Dumbledore: .....
His expression showed some surprise, but Dumbledore quickly composed himself, blinked, and said, "Well, once you learn Apparition, you can try it yourself... Now, we need to go see the Minister. Harry, you don't need to say anything; I'll do the talking."
Xiaoyu nodded. She had already realized that she was no longer in the terminal she had been in.
She was standing on the side of a somewhat dirty street, with an even more dilapidated bar in front of her.
The name written on the crooked sign above was so badly covered by wind, rain and dirt that it was hard to make out. Xiaoyu could only barely make out the words "Broken Cauldron Bar".
Ok!
Before entering the bar, Xiaoyu thought to herself.
Let her see what other surprises Britain can bring her!
