The Hogwarts Express leaves at 11 o'clock and can only arrive after dark.
Although Dolly really wanted to complain about why it took a seven-hour train ride to such a small place like Britain.
But considering that the Hogwarts Express is already one of the most advanced means of transportation in the wizarding world, the Ministry of Magic faced countless protests for the construction of this train.
She decided to keep quiet about the magical world.
Anyway, she came here to experience, not to change anything.
Moreover, everyone in the box was sitting on the sofa, and there were only four people in their box.
Dolly simply half-lay on the sofa, snuggling up to Hermione's shoulder, so she could easily smell the scent of lavender.
With such a wonderful experience, why would you need a bicycle?
However, Dolly sat up because she was hungry. She had to solve the problem of eating.
Ron apparently realized something and took out a box from his backpack. Inside was four corned beef sandwiches.
"I have corned beef sandwiches here. My mom makes them, and she never remembers that I don't like corned beef, so you guys..."
Before he could finish his words, the cart bell rang.
The train attendant opened the door, a naive smile lit up the compartment, and he said, "Good afternoon, dear little wizards. Would you like some food?"
Ron's face flushed immediately, even his ears turned red.
Harry saw this and realized Ron's unhappiness.
So he said, "Corned beef? I'd really like to try it. But sandwiches don't seem like enough for the four of us. How about I get some candy?"
"It's better to take care of it all."
Dolly's eyes lit up as she looked at the dazzling array of snacks.
Her body already had a big appetite, and now with the golden finger handling everything behind the scenes, she could eat as much as she wanted.
Sometimes Hermione even felt scared when watching her. If Dolly didn't gain weight no matter how much she ate, she would have stopped her.
"Oh, dear, that's a lot of money."
"It doesn't matter, our Harry has money."
Dolly glanced at Harry, who shrugged, pulled out a few Galleons, and asked, "Is that enough?"
The salesperson naturally smiled and stuffed all the items into the box.
This was just one cart, and she still had a lot of stock. After taking three gold Galleons, two silver Sickles, and four bronze Knuts from Harry, the salesperson left happily.
Looking at the people who were almost buried in snacks, Ron couldn't help but move his throat, but subconsciously wanted to hide the corned beef sandwich.
In his opinion, this was something extremely embarrassing and not worth showing off.
"So where's your corned beef sandwich?"
Dolly handed Ron a piece of pumpkin cake. Ron took it flattered and said, "This is just made by my mother. It must taste bad, so..."
"Ron, you must be used to it." Dolly directly denied Ron's words.
"You just said you have a lot of brothers. As a mother of so many people, how could your cooking be bad?"
"What's more, this is my first time tasting food from ordinary people in the magical world. Unless you can't bear it..."
"Oh no, I'll give it to you right away."
Ron was encouraged by Dolly's words and quickly took out a sandwich and gave one to everyone.
The scene of being disliked that he expected did not appear. Even Hermione, who was frowning, relaxed her brow after taking a bite.
Because corned beef tastes really good.
This is beef that has been stewed and then marinated with salt, sugar and some spices. It has a rich salty and fragrant flavor and tastes similar to braised beef in soy sauce.
The only drawback is probably that the quality of the beef is a bit poor and a bit too chewy, but for young people this is not a problem.
After that, it was a bit too salty.
But no matter what, this sandwich is definitely a very normal and edible home-cooked meal in the UK, where the overall cuisine level tends to be dark.
"Ron, you're so modest. It really is delicious."
Harry patted Ron's shoulder and spoke incoherently.
Ron finally woke up from his dream and took a sip himself.
It seems that this familiar taste, apart from being shabby, is indeed a little delicious.
Of course, what is even better than the sandwich is the three new classmates in front of me... If only time could stop right here and everyone could shut up.
"It's so salty, so did we buy any drinks?"
Hermione searched around for something to quench her thirst, and Dolly stuffed the remaining sandwich into Harry's hands, then shared a Coca-Cola with Hermione.
"Well, my sister's appetite isn't very good, so don't mind."
Harry told a lie that was against his will and would be exposed soon, and he didn't finish the sandwich in his hand. Instead, he reached out for the Chocolate Frog.
Ron's mouth twitched, and he simply threw down his sandwich, reached out to the pumpkin pie and took a bite.
Well, it’s so sweet!
32 Chapter 3: Cat and Mouse Game
(For detailed description, please see the related works.)
A few people ate and chatted, and soon finished most of the snacks.
At this time, Ron also noticed that the person who ate the most was Dolly, who looked the most fragile among the four.
This made Ron's lips move, and he finally couldn't help asking, "Harry, didn't you say your sister had a poor appetite?"
"She just eats a lot, but she doesn't gain weight, so she has a poor appetite."
"You call this a loss of appetite?"
Ron felt that Harry had been a Muggle for too long, and many of his concepts might be different from those of wizards like them.
As for Dolly's physique, Ron didn't feel any envy.
After all, the four little ones are only 11 or 12 years old now, and it is not the time for them to be anxious about their weight.
"Oh yeah, I almost forgot about my pet."
Ron said, reaching down to get his pet's cage.
"pet?"
Harry looked over curiously and was surprised to find that Ron had taken out a big rat.
"He's Scabbers..."
Ron was just about to explain with a smile when a huge yellow figure dropped from the sky and pounced on Banban in Ron's hand.
It was Crookshanks who had jumped out of the cage at the beginning and had been sleeping on the ceiling above everyone's heads.
Crookshanks was clever, Hermione had discovered that.
So she didn't care much about where Crookshanks was, but she didn't expect Ron to suddenly take out a big rat.
"Oh, damn, where did the cat come from!"
Ron immediately became anxious. He held his mouse tightly with one hand and swung his other hand to hit the big cat.
Crookshanks stretched out his sharp claws and pierced Ron's clothes, hanging on Ron's body. Facing Ron's fist, he not only did not retreat, but also let out an angry roar.
It seemed that it would not stop until it killed the rat.
Hermione also reacted and said anxiously, "Crookshanks, come back, that's not a wild mouse!"
After hearing his master's order, Crookshanks retracted his claws and jumped off Ron's body.
But after landing, he still stared at the rat in Ron's hand, and that look made Ron even more angry.
"Hermione, keep your cat under control!"
Hermione picked up Crookshanks and wanted to apologize.
But seeing Ron's angry look, he said, "Why don't you take care of your mice? If you suddenly take out a mouse, my cat will naturally be angry."
"He's not a rat, he's my pet!"
"Crookshanks isn't a cat either, he's my pet too!"
Ron's ears turned red with anger, and Hermione refused to give in.
Seeing that the people who were just talking and laughing were about to fight, Harry immediately turned his eyes to Dolly, hoping to get his sister's help.
After all, only Dolly could do something like persuading Hermione.
However, Dolly also looked at the mouse and immediately thought about what to do.
She knew the rat's secret.
It looks like a rat, but it is actually a living person.
His real identity is Peter Pettigrew, and Peter Pettigrew is the traitor who betrayed Harry's family.
As a child, he entered Hogwarts in the same year as Sirius Black, James Potter, and Remus Lupin, and joined a small group of people to become an Animagus.
Animagus is a magic that allows wizards to transform into some non-magical animals. Because it can be used without a wand, it can be flexibly used for reconnaissance, life-saving and even combat. It is an extremely advanced magic.
Peter Pettigrew was trusted by James Potter and others, and was even chosen as the secret keeper.
As long as the secret keeper does not reveal Harry's family's address, even Voldemort will not be able to find them.
It just so happened that Peter Pettigrew had already surrendered to Voldemort, which led to Voldemort breaking into Harry's house. He was killed by Harry's mother with an ancient spell, which eventually created the boy who survived.
After Voldemort disappeared, Peter Pettigrew was afraid of the punishment from the Order of the Phoenix and the Ministry of Magic.
So during a confrontation with Sirius, he used his wand to create an explosion, cut off one of his right fingers and disappeared.
Sirius and the entire wizarding world believed Peter Pettigrew to be dead, but in fact he had used the Animagus to transform into a mouse.
Later, by chance, he became Ron's pet.
Normal mice only live for one or two years, but Scabbers has lived in Ron's house for six or seven years. This is one of the best proofs.
This is also the reason why Crookshanks is angry.
Crookshanks is not a cat in the ordinary sense. It has an extremely high IQ and has inherited the magical abilities of a kneazle.
It can identify some wizards who have bad intentions towards its master, and can even see through Animagus.
I guess in Crookshanks' eyes, Peter Pettigrew was lying in Ron's arms and giggling non-stop.
Knowing all this, you can understand what Dolly is thinking about now.
Should we expose the truth about Peter Pettigrew?
If the truth about Peter Pettigrew is revealed, the events of the third grade will happen earlier.
After all, Sirius was in prison because he killed the "hero" Peter Pettigrew.
But in fact, Peter Pettigrew was still alive, so Sirius naturally became the one who was wronged.
But the downside...
Touching the staff at her waist, Dolly felt that it would be better not to expose Peter Pettigrew with her limited magic power.
After all, although Peter Pettigrew looks wretched, he is also a man who can blow up an entire street with magic spells.
And now on the entire Hogwarts train, only the salesperson and the driver are adults, and the rest are students.
Peter Pettigrew stole the wand and blew up the Hogwarts Express, so Dolly, the time traveler, had to bear a heavy sin.
Of course, she didn't do nothing.
After she enrolled in school, she would gradually learn about Animagus and then find an opportunity to reveal the abnormality of Banban to the professors of the school.
If the professor takes action to deal with Peter Pettigrew, it should be a sure thing.
