Jack Smith looks to be in his sixties and looks a bit like Sean Connery. When he first ran for Congress, almost all female voters over 45 years old in the constituency voted for him.
When he walked into the living room, he saw Dumbledore in robes and a long beard. He was not surprised and asked: "Which theater troupe are you a member of?"
Dumbledore was already used to such questions and replied kindly: "Hello Mr. Smith, I am Dumbledore, the headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and I have come to invite Charles Smith to study at Hogwarts.
.”
"Perhaps you don't know that Charles is a wizard, not a magician who can do tricks, but a real wizard who can master magic."
Jack sat down next to Charles and said without changing his expression: "Charles is a smart boy. He has always been top at Long Primary School in Oxfordshire. I think he can go to Eton, Harrow or Westminster."
Go to a special high school instead of becoming an actor."
"There are many intersections on the road of life. It's not that us old people think which path is right, this path is suitable for young people."
"If Charles himself is willing to pursue an acting career, I will support his choice."
Seeing that he still thought he was an actor, Dumbledore took out his wand and said with a smile: "Would you like a cup of tea?"
With the wave of the wand, a clean teacup and saucer flew from the cupboard to the table. The teapot flew by itself to pour tea into the teacup, and then the cup and saucer held the teacup and flew in front of Jack.
Jack stared at the tea cup for a long time, then stretched out his hand to touch around and found that there was no rope hanging on it. He said in surprise: "Is there really magic in this world?"
At this time, Charles shouted: "Just now, this gentleman also said that there is a Dark Lord, called Vol...what the hell, this man seems to have killed Mrs. Dursley's sister, who is Harry's mother."
When Old Jack heard this, he frowned and immediately asked questions: "Is that so? Are the Dursleys also... wizards? Will the devil from Africa come to seek revenge? Do you want to call the police?"
Dumbledore was very experienced in such questions and patiently answered him in a way that Muggles could understand. The Dursleys were not wizards, but Petunia's sister and nephew were; the Dark Lord was not black, and his ancestors were eighteen generations old.
They are all British. The Dark Lord means the devil who uses black magic. He went on the street 10 years ago. Calling the police is useless. Wizards have their own Aurors, whose role is similar to that of the police.
Then he explained what Hogwarts was all about, and with a wave of his wand, the teacup that Petunia used just now turned into a pigeon scurrying around the living room.
After hearing this, Jack took a sip of tea and asked Lao Deng: "How many people did the Dark Lord you mentioned kill?"
Dumbledore replied: "More than a hundred people."
Jack then asked: "One morning?"
Dumbledore quickly shook his head and replied: "That's a lot in total."
"That's it." Jack finally asked, "How much is the tuition?"
Dumbledore was stunned and replied: "Hogwarts is funded by the board of directors. Students do not have to pay tuition. They only need to buy their own robes, textbooks and some equipment used in class."
Jack was silent for a moment, then turned to Charles and asked: "What do you think?"
Charles was a little hesitant. He didn't have any ambitions. He had already planned for the future. After graduating from college here, Run would return to China to work as a foreign teacher, and at the same time buy a house, buy a house, and buy a house. Wouldn't it be a wonderful life in the future?
But that's Hogwarts, it would be a shame not to go and see it.
Finally Charles said: "Okay, I'll go."
Dumbledore laughed, stretched out his right hand and said to Charles: "On behalf of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, I would like to welcome you to join. I believe you will have a wonderful time at Hogwarts."
Charles also stretched out his hand to shake his hand, but let go after half a second, looking afraid of him.
Dumbledore left. He had to go to the next Muggle-born family to do the explaining work, but he didn't care about the Dursley family across the street.
After confirming that Lao Deng had left, Charles sat on the sofa and said to smiling Jack: "You will definitely win an Oscar if you make a movie."
Jack snapped his fingers, and then said: "Go and turn off the water and electricity, and we'll set off later."
While he was talking, several suitcases floated over from the stairs and stopped behind the gate.
Charles asked strangely: "Where are we going?"
"Seaside Villa." Jack said seriously, "The real Hogwarts is very dangerous, and you will die if you are not careful. When I went to school for the first time, the carriage I was riding in was attacked by a dragon, and I had to kill at least 8 people on the way to class.
"
"While there is still time, I will teach you some self-defense magic."
Charles' eyes lit up and he immediately asked: "Are you willing to buy me a wand?"
As a result, Jack's answer made him very depressed: "Use my wand first."
Charles wanted to struggle again, so he said: "It's very inconvenient for you to use it without a wand."
Jack stood up and waved the tea set on the table. The watermelon and watermelon knife were gone. He said calmly and calmly: "How can a magic wand be such an inconvenient thing?"
Charles was speechless.
Old Jack has lived for more than a hundred years and has no experience in raising children. After picking himself up, he actually used Legilimency on himself in order to figure out whether he was hungry or needed to urinate. As a result, he saw part of his own memories, and later he actually
It's a joke.
I was angry about this for a long time, and finally Old Jack calmed down by agreeing to teach me magic.
The two pretended to move the suitcases to the Rolls-Royce, and then Jack drove.
On the way, Charles noticed something was wrong with the car's destination, and asked doubtfully: "Aren't we going to the beach house? How did we get into London?"
Jack asked back: "Have you forgotten what day it is today?"
Charles' head was full of questions and he couldn't figure it out. When he went to France a while ago, the old man seemed to arrange his itinerary according to what he had to do today.
"Did you forget?" Jack said calmly, "Today is the day you go to the dentist."
Charles suddenly broke out in a cold sweat and said hurriedly: "I brush my teeth well every day and don't need to go to the dentist!"
Jack said to him seriously: "I heard from some ladies that drinking happy water regularly will damage your teeth. You should have a good check-up if you drink so much."
"Besides, your classmate is very happy to see you. Aren't you just as happy to see her?"
"By the way, are you interested in her?"
Charles said with a black line: "Don't make trouble, such words will cause trouble for girls. She and I are just pure classmates. You should know that I like people with particularly good figures."
Jack said nonchalantly: "So what if I'm not in good shape, it's just a matter of human body transformation."
"Okay, let me buy you a new computer. You can use it when you get back from vacation. Don't you always say that it is better to enjoy the blessings of being a wizard?"
"I can't see that Jack by the West Lake can do such big things in the future."
"Alas...the wizard is lagging behind."
At the end, he looked a little sad.
This was the first time Charles saw him like this, so he asked: "When did you...have the idea that wizards are lagging behind?"
"July 21, 1969," Jack replied in a low voice, "the day when Muggles first landed on the moon. In the blink of an eye, it has been 22 years."
Charles asked him again: "Isn't it difficult for you to use apparation or portkey to go to the moon?"
Jack didn't answer, but just said: "You will know it after you learn it."
"If you can learn the few spells I teach you well before going to Hogwarts, I will show you my memories of my time at Hogwarts, and then we will be even."
Seeing that he had changed the topic, Charles stopped worrying about using magic to land on the moon. He pouted and said, "I want to see your memories of traveling around the world."
Jack said: "The world is so big, I want to see it myself."
While talking, the two came to the door of the dental clinic.
Good news, the clinic is closed and there is a temporary temporary sign on it.
