Hogwarts: Jade, stop controlling Harry!

Chapter 97 Hedwig – The Fastest Owl in History (2/3)

Just as Harry was about to put Pyrrho on the table, he heard Ron's nervous voice.

"etc!"

Harry looked at Ron with a puzzled expression.

"I want to ask...this lizard doesn't eat mice, right?" Ron stammered.

In terms of size, Pyrrho is now longer and thicker than Harry's forearm, making him one of the larger lizards.

Lizards are generally carnivorous or scavengers.

Harry was taken aback; he hadn't thought about that question before.

However, Harry never fed Pyrrho any live animals; he always bought fresh beef or offal from Old Tom.

"Uh, I don't think Pello will eat that. I've been feeding him beef and offal all the time," Harry said uncertainly.

Perhaps because Pyrrho was so obedient and still in Harry's hands, Ron gradually relaxed his guard and muttered something.

"Well, Harry, you know... I didn't mean to say that, it's just that Scabbers used to be Percy's pet, and now it's mine... I mean, it's an old mouse, it can't take being startled."

"Then I'll put Pello in there," Harry suggested.

However, Ron waved his hand in refusal, saying, "No, no, no."

Ron was a little embarrassed. "I think it should be fine... Your lizard probably wouldn't be interested in an old and ugly rat, right? Spotted's meat isn't as good as fresh beef."

Harry shrugged and put Pello on the table, though he could grab her back at any time.

Pello simply climbed to the window, turned its body covered in fiery red scales to face the sun, and remained motionless.

Ron was finally completely relieved.

"By the way, Harry, where's your owl? I can't find it... I bet you're the first freshman to bring two pets to school!"

You mean Hedwig?

Harry pointed out the window and replied, "I was worried it would be too stuffy in its cage, so I let it out to roam freely. It should be flying alongside the train."

"Following the train? Won't that tire it out?" Ron asked in surprise.

Harry blinked and said vaguely, "Probably not, Hedwig flies pretty fast."

Ron nodded, adding a reasonable explanation for Harry: "No wonder, it seems Hedwig must be a young owl, unlike our Errol."

As he spoke, Ron unconsciously started talking about his own family situation, and he complained.

"Honestly, Errol is too old to fly anymore, but Percy won't let anyone else in the family borrow his owl to deliver mail... I really don't know why he has so many letters to write during the summer vacation!"

Harry casually remarked, "Maybe your brother's in love."

Dali had a crush on a petite girl in his class, but unfortunately, it was unrequited love. When Dali invited the girl to go for a walk, he scared her to tears.

Harry had thoroughly mocked Dudley back then, although he was later cornered by Dudley and his buddy and got a beating...

Harry's casual remark stunned Ron, who slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "That makes sense!"

"How come I didn't think of that? Maybe Percy really has fallen for some girl."

Harry didn't reply, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Harry actually lied about Hedwig.

Although this old-fashioned steam train wasn't particularly fast, it was still generally safe to say that a train is faster than an owl.

Because this train only needs steam to run and doesn't consume physical strength... it might not even need steam, but be driven by magic to keep moving at a constant speed, or even accelerate.

But the prerequisite is that the owl is just an ordinary owl.

Let me put it this way.

Hedwig is probably the fastest flying owl in the world right now, an owl with the power of the Rabbit Talisman!

Bad news: Harry failed to obtain the Rabbit Charm's power.

Good news: When Harry touched Hedwig, it seemed he transferred divine power to her.

On the bright side, Harry will be able to send letters to his friends very quickly, extremely quickly!

But the problem is, Harry is an orphan, so who is he supposed to write to? He can't just write to the Dursleys, can he?

This is truly a sad thing...

Harry thought to himself, but continued answering Ron's question aloud, "As for the two pets... I plan to ask Hagrid to look after Hedwig when we get to school. That shouldn't be against school rules, right?"

Ron nodded immediately. "Great idea! I've heard of Hagrid. He's a big guy who lives a secluded life on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, but George and Fred say he's a nice guy."

Perhaps because Harry said they were good friends, Ron became more casual in his conversation with Harry.

"But seriously, buddy, compared to what you've done for the wizarding world! Even if you did nothing but bring two pets to Hogwarts, I don't think anyone would have a problem with it!" Ron said enviously. "You deserve it."

Harry smiled but remained silent.

Harry would rather his parents be alive than gain fame and privileges, but it's too late to say anything now.

He can't go back eleven years and change history, can he?

People always have to look forward!

Ron let out a sound of surprise, and seeing Harry's expression, he realized he had said the wrong thing. Just as Ron was about to say something to make amends...

A series of hurried footsteps sounded.

It was Hermione, whom the two had almost forgotten. She had finally returned, and she brought back a little boy with tears streaming down his face.

It was the same little boy Harry had seen not long ago at King's Cross Station, the one who was with an old woman.

"Hermione, what's wrong?" Harry asked.

"Harry, you picked up a toad when you got on the train, didn't you!" Hermione asked hastily.

"That's right." Harry nodded.

"That's great! Maybe it's Neville's toad!" Hermione said with a light laugh.

She had just come out of the bathroom when she happened to run into Neville, who was squatting in the hallway crying in despair because he couldn't find his toad.

Hermione immediately remembered that Harry had picked up a toad when he got on the train.

I doubt that two toads could escape from this train at the same time.

"Great, it must be it!" The little boy breathed a sigh of relief.

But Harry looked embarrassed and said...

"Uh... wait a minute, I think that toad has disappeared again."

Hermione: "Huh?"

Harry remembered that he had placed the toad in the corner of his seat, but when he looked down, the toad had quietly slipped away.

"What?! No, my Rafe!"

The boy, who had just started to smile, suddenly became anxious again, and looked like he was about to cry.

"It seems we have to keep searching." Hermione put her hands on her hips, her tone tinged with helplessness.

However, she knew that Harry couldn't be blamed for this.

Harry reassured Neville, "Your name is Neville, right? Don't worry, I can help you find the toad."

"Really?" Neville stopped sobbing and looked up at Harry.

Then, a flicker of surprise crossed Neville's eyes as he recognized the person before him: "Wait, you wouldn't happen to be Harry Potter, would you?!"

"It's me," Harry nodded in acknowledgment.

"My God, it really is you... My grandma's been talking about you all this time!" Neville exclaimed excitedly. "She showed me the Daily Prophet's article about you and told me to learn from you..."

"You're amazing! How did you manage to escape from the Ministry of Magic's pursuit?"

Harry is extremely embarrassed now.

I never imagined he'd become someone else's child. But escaping from half the Ministry of Magic's pursuit is a bit too much.

How could adults actually believe such a rumor?

Fortunately, Ron stepped in to help Harry out of the predicament.

"I heard from my dad that the department is only looking for Harry, not planning to hunt him down."

Harry breathed a sigh of relief and gave Ron a grateful look.

"But my dad also said that Harry is the best young wizard he has ever seen, and that Harry is sure to achieve great things in the future, and may even become the next generation leader to succeed Dumbledore."

Harry:

'

""

By the time Harry heard what Ron said, it was too late to cover his mouth.

What Ron said was even more exaggerated than Harry escaping from the Ministry of Magic's pursuit.

Ha questioned Ron with his eyes.

I have treated you well, why do you want to harm me?

Ron misunderstood, giving Harry a look that said, "Don't worry, buddy, I understand you."

In Ron's mind, no one can refuse to be a great hero, and no one can refuse the feeling of being admired and worshipped.

Moreover, his father did say that Harry might become a qualified leader in the future.

Ron wasn't entirely talking nonsense.

"My parents also say that Harry is different from other kids; he's very opinionated and calm." Hermione even joined the discussion!

She agreed with what Ron said.

In Hermione's view, Harry's exceptional talent as an orphan was undoubtedly due to his innate genius.

The Western world as a whole actually agrees with this view.

Harry opened his mouth, wanting to explain.

Actually, he's quite ordinary; he's not as amazing or outstanding as they imagine.

Really!

And he wasn't the one who ran away from his aunt's house.

Just then, a teasing, playful female voice suddenly popped into Harry's mind.

"Hehe, look what I found!"

"Harry, things are getting lively here. What did you do to get them praising you so much?"

Harry's most embarrassing moment was witnessed, and he instinctively shouted it out.

"Xiaoyu?!"

"Shh!" Jade, who had successfully entered Harry's body, quickly stopped her. "Keep your voice down, you said it out loud!"

Looking at Hermione and the other two opposite them, they all stopped talking and looked at Harry, asking in unison.

Who is Xiaoyu?

"Uh..." Harry racked his brains quickly, "I mean... I need to help Neville find his toad now."

This excuse is a bit too forced.

However, aside from Hermione's slight doubts, Ron and Neville adopted a "look, the famous Harry Potter is about to unleash his power" attitude.

He looked at Harry expectantly.

Harry pulled his suitcase out from under the table and rummaged through it.

At the same time, he was also communicating with Xiaoyu in his mind.

"Jade... what brings you here?" Harry asked awkwardly.

"Yeah, I just thought about it for a bit, wanting to come to your place, Harry, and I succeeded in no time," Jade replied cheerfully.

Harry:

"

""

That's not what he actually wanted to say, never mind.

This proves that Harry's previous entry into Jade's body was not a coincidence, but rather a repeatable ability.

Harry suppressed his embarrassment for the time being, deciding to help Neville find the toad and get rid of him first.

Things should be done one step at a time.
