"Capone, when you were insulted by that little Les, I didn't show up to help you immediately. Are you angry?"
Sean asked.
Capone was stunned for a moment, then shook his head quickly, and then nodded again.
"Sir, I'm not angry at all because you didn't come to help me, but his impoliteness did make me a little angry."
Sean smiled: "And then you became even more angry because of Melanie?"
Capone scratched his head in embarrassment: "Yes, sir..."
"This is normal. When faced with rude people, normal people will get angry. When the other person touches the bottom line deeper, the anger will be more - but, do you know why I didn't come out immediately?" Xiao
En asked.
Now, under his influence, Capone has become accustomed to thinking more before answering questions and preparing more before doing things. After frowning and thinking for a while, he tried to say: "Sir, although this may be a bit overestimating your ability.
, but I always feel that you have been training me, just, just..."
The little boy scratched his hair anxiously, trying to find a more suitable adjective.
Sean continued: "You don't have to put yourself in such a low position, Capone. Yes, I can tell you very straightforwardly that in my opinion, you have very good talents and excellent character. At the same time,
I am willing to think and endure hardship. Faced with such an excellent sapling, I really can't help but want to train you well, and I have reason to believe that you can meet my expectations in the future and become the better person you want.
of myself.”
Sean's sincere affirmation and appreciation made Capone blush. The boy felt that his head was going to be dizzy now - Mr. Wallop, whom he most admired, had just said in person that he was great and that he had to cultivate himself.
…
The boy who had always had an inferiority complex but also desperately longed to be recognized was so excited that he was speechless for a moment.
Sean smiled upon seeing this and lazily patted the other person on the back of the head: "Pay attention to your image, man, your biggest shortcoming now is that you are easily excited, and remember one thing - your respect for me makes me happy,
Similarly, other people who can teach you things and make you better are also worthy of your respect. On the premise of maintaining respect, don't be so rigid. Everyone should live for themselves, not to meet other people's expectations.
.”
Capone was stunned for a moment, then nodded vigorously: "I, I understand! Sir!"
"As long as you understand, your little brain has always been very effective with me - well, coming back to the topic just now, the reason why I didn't take action is to make you feel more deeply,
You need confidence to speak in the wizarding world, and this confidence comes from your strength. When your strength is insufficient, I'm sorry, but you have no right to speak."
Hearing Sean's words, Capone pursed his lips. Indeed, he felt a sense of powerlessness firsthand - the boy with a good background was the same age as himself, but when the other party insulted him at the beginning, he could only be angry.
But he couldn't bring himself to resist, and that Mr. Rice was even more stressful - but when Mr. Wallop showed up, that man could only run away...
He admired Mr. Wallop like this and was also very envious of him.
Seeing Capone's expression, Sean knew that the little guy had listened to his words. He nodded with satisfaction and continued: "On the other hand, this is the Ollivander's store. Miss Ollivander and I
They are good friends. To step forward rashly in this situation is to neglect the Ollivander family, and the relationship between friends needs to be managed carefully. Moreover, as you can see, Miss Ollivander has also solved the problem herself.
ability."
Capone nodded thoughtfully. He had indeed not considered this aspect before.
"Of course, it was purely a coincidence that things ended up on my head -" Sean spread his hands, "But, whether I take action or not, I have prepared a lesson for you."
"Course? Is it magic or a way to deal with wizards?" Capone became curious.
Sean smiled mysteriously: "No, it's the human heart."
"People's hearts..."
"This is a very important lesson I learned, and I think you can start learning it too..."
What he learned from Grindelwald, Sean more than once felt the horror of seeing into people's hearts. He only used his brain, but the effect was comparable to the most powerful curse.
Both he and Grindelwald firmly believe that an excellent wizard must have a brain as good as his magic.
Moreover, Grindelwald will also agree with the methods Sean taught others. This old man who is not serious but has a very charming personality has always valued the word "inheritance".
Of course, he will have very high demands on his students...
Sean led Capone slowly walking on the streets of Diagon Alley, using a relaxed tone to explain to Capone the things Grindelwald had taught him, as well as his personal insights, in the most basic way.
Telling.
The eleven-year-old boy was a little confused, but he tried his best to understand what Sean said. Even if he couldn't understand it for the time being, he should keep it firmly in his mind.
Milani, who was in the front, was a little surprised that the two people had been whispering for so long. The little girl who couldn't hold back got Sean's consent and joined in to listen.
Capone and Milani have just come into contact with a new and magical world, and Sean knocks on the door of another world for them again.
The two people, both very smart, gradually began to realize that what Mr. Wallop taught them was comparable to magical magic.
"Ha--" Sean took a sip of the summer special magic sparkling water from Florin Cold Drink Shop and sighed with satisfaction, "That's it for today. This is enough for you to think about for a while."
Capone and Milani nodded and muttered words. Both of them were recalling what they didn't understand and were preparing to engrav those words firmly in their minds.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Milani glanced at Capone while talking, she turned to ask the shopkeeper Florin and politely asked for a paper and pen, and then returned
in position.
"Capone, paper and pen, when you're done writing, let's go back and compare each other."
Sean glanced at Melanie with admiration. The little girl's head turned quickly.
After a while, both of them memorized a large sheet of notes, and then they breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, don't be so reserved and nervous. We will be in the same school from now on. If you have any questions, you can come to me." Sean smiled and spread his hands.
"Thank you, sir." Capone breathed a sigh of relief.
Milani also thanked Sean, and then asked curiously: "Sir, you said that little Les was the first test for Capone?"
Sean nodded: "Yeah, isn't it pleasant that you can conquer someone who once looked down on you in another way? Moreover, the test must start from the basics, right? Of course, I am not
After encouraging you to brainwash an eleven-year-old boy, you can decide whether you want to make this friend sincerely based on his subsequent behavior."
Capone bit his pen thoughtfully. As Mr. Wallop said before, when communicating with people, it depends on the other person's situation. If there is no grievance or grudge against the other person and there is no moral stain, then one should be sincere.
Make friends with your heart in mind; if the other person is not a good person to begin with, such as a domineering second-generation official like Xiao Leis, then of course you must put your own interests as the primary purpose.
In the follow-up, if the other party can look back in time, you can show some sincerity. If not, if you approach this kind of thing with the mentality of taking advantage of the other party, you will not feel guilty.
Combined with the few examples given by Mr. Wallop, Capone suddenly felt that he had a new understanding of his outlook on life.
Next to her, Milani has lived with the love of her parents since she was a child. Although she has a good head, she doesn't think as much as Capone did. She just thinks that Mr. Wallop in front of her is not only handsome, but also has strength and IQ, which is really impressive.
People admire him - if Capone studied with such a person, he would definitely develop very well, right?
After a few more words, the girl's curiosity arose and she asked curiously: "Sir, have you ever encountered such a situation before?"
Sean nodded casually: "Of course, not long after we got on the train, someone started to trouble me."
"How did you handle it then?"
"I -" Sean raised his head and recalled for a while, then showed his white teeth, "I almost forgot to tell you, when the reason doesn't make sense, the reasoning can't be carried out, and the psychology is unbreakable, we have another method.
a method."
He waved his magic wand: "Physical persuasion is also very useful sometimes."
On the side, Florin, the owner of the cold drink shop, who heard the conversation between several people, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. This boy looked like a big kid, but his behavior was very old and scary.
He suddenly felt a little sorry for little Rice, but he had no intention of reminding Mr. Rice - that guy had caused trouble for him many times. It was really ridiculous. Could a cold drink shop hide controlled magic supplies?
!That little bastard of his also ate a lot of his free ice cream. Someone should have educated him!
Sean smiled slightly, and after paying the bill, he led the two of them out of the cold drink shop.
"Capone, look back."
After hearing Sean's words, Capone turned his head and saw the kind shopkeeper muttering something, with disgust and the joy of succeeding in revenge on his face.
"He heard part of the conversation we just had." Sean said with a smile.
Capone's eyes widened: "That...that..."
Sean pointed to his head: "Yes, he heard it, but if I didn't want to, he wouldn't hear anything."
"gentlemen?"
Sean laughed: "You still have a lot to learn. Well, next time you can go to the cold drink shop alone. Mr. Florin will be happy to give you an ice cream."
Capone nodded in understanding.
"Okay, let's go see what else we haven't bought. By the way, do you two have any favorite animals? Let's use them as school gifts..."
…
"Woo-wu-wu-"
A crimson steam locomotive parked next to a platform packed with passengers. The sign on the train read: Hogwarts Express, eleven o'clock. Capone looked back and saw that what used to be a partition was now a
A wrought iron archway with the inscription: Platform Nine and Three Quarters.
Just like Mr. Wallop said...the boy could not restrain his excitement and excitement.
Thick smoke from steam locomotives lingered in the sky above the chattering crowd, and cats of various colors walked back and forth under people's feet. Amidst the buzzing sounds of the crowd and the noise of hauling heavy luggage, owls also hooted harshly.
I should.
Capone comforted the owl "Leon" on his suitcase, which was a gift from Mr. Wallop, a very energetic brown screech owl.
He looked around excitedly, and then looked behind him. Sure enough, Milani also walked through, followed by the mayor and his wife who looked shocked.
After the girl said goodbye to her parents, Capone took the lead and dragged the heavy suitcase towards a car.
"Hey, little guy, do you need help?" A jumping voice rang.
He turned around and saw a pair of twin brothers with fiery red hair. They were both very tall and always had smiles on their faces.
"Oh, oh, thank you, could you please help me."
When the brothers helped him and Milani carry their luggage to the carriage, chatted casually and ran away, Capone saw that in the direction they ran, there was a large family of men and women with red hair. They seemed to be one family.
"The Weasley brothers are really nice people, aren't they?" Melanie said as she pushed her suitcase and followed him.
Capone nodded and looked at the direction the two brothers were leaving, thinking to himself, this is the friend that Mr. Wallop said he could make with sincerity, right?
The two were traveling in the carriage. The Hogwarts Express (although Capone was very confused as to why the steam train was called an express train, but presumably there must be some acceleration magic?) looked very big from the outside, but once inside,
It was bigger, the carriage was much longer than he imagined, and many students of different grades were walking through the corridors.
After searching for a while, they found an empty carriage and quickly walked in.
"Huh - this trip is really not easy." Capone let out a sigh of relief.
Milani was also so tired that her hair stuck to her forehead, but she looked excited: "But we are going to Hogwarts! Capone!"
Capone couldn't help but smile: "Yes, we are going to Hogwarts..."
Not long after, the train made a sound of starting. The carriage made Capone's heart tremble, and the corners of his mouth also trembled.
Milani also looked excited. She was about to speak when she suddenly heard a burst of excited shouts from outside.
The curious two people poked their heads out and found a man surrounded by many students. The man was wearing a fifth-grade uniform and had a prefect's badge on his chest.
It's Sean.
"Mr. Wallop is indeed very popular in school, and the second and third grade students seem to particularly admire him. Many girls blushed..."
"As expected of Mr. Wallop." Capone said with admiration.
Then, Sean in the crowd saw the two little heads sticking out, he smiled, and then strode over.
