Although they couldn't find anything after studying the nymph's magic book, Ryan and Hermione were not frustrated. After all, this is the crystallization of part of the knowledge of a secondary god. It would be great if they could research something in a short time.
Very strange thing.
After packing their luggage, everyone walked out of the platform, where their families were already waiting.
After saying goodbye to Hermione, Ryan got into his family's car.
"Dad, why didn't you drive the sports car at home?" Ryan was a little confused, because his mother wrote to him in a letter that his father preferred to drive a sports car when he went out. So it was strange for Ryan to see his father driving the family's original SUV.
.
"I thought so too, but it's snowing today. The chassis of the sports car is too low and I'm worried it might get scratched." Mr. Lambert shrugged somewhat depressedly.
Naturally, my mother was nagging me when I got home, but Ryan felt very warm. After dinner, Ryan gave the gifts he bought in Brazil to his parents. After all, not everything in Mahogany Town is the same.
Specifically for wizards, Ryan bought a lot of gifts that can be used by people without magic.
Some wood carvings with local aboriginal styles are very popular with his father, while his mother prefers the purple propolis produced by a local magical bee. But they are both full of praise for a kind of coffee beans with a porcelain luster, Ryan knows
This kind of coffee cultivation requires magic. After special processing, the coffee beans grown are more refreshing than coffee beans, but there is no damage to the human body caused by the caffeine in ordinary coffee beans.
After chatting happily all night, Ryan finally returned to his familiar bed and had a good sleep. Early the next morning, he was woken up by a knocking sound on the window glass.
"Oh my god, who doesn't let anyone have a good rest on Christmas?" Thinking of this, Ryan jumped from the bed to the wooden floor and looked out the window, only to find that there was nothing outside the window.
"Is it because I was so tired after going out this time that I had hallucinations?" Ryan was thinking so. Suddenly the voice of his father, Mr. Lambert, came from outside: "Hey, son, come out and take a look. This
It seems there is something for you."
Do you have my things? Ryan quickly put on his clothes and rushed downstairs to the corridor facing the door. As soon as he opened the door, the cold temperature outside made him shiver involuntarily.
"Here." His father waved his thickly gloved hand to greet him. "I was just clearing the snow in the yard when I saw this bird fall from your window. I saw it was holding a letter.
I was wondering if someone wrote to you?" After saying that, he handed over something like a gray feather duster.
"This feather duster looks familiar." Ryan thought and took the things from his father: a fainted owl and a letter, with the names of Fred Weasley and George Weasley written on the envelope.
"The Weasley family's owl should really be replaced. Errol looks worse than last year." Ryan quickly returned to the room and asked his mother to borrow a basket to put Errol in and put it by the fireplace.
went up, and then unfolded the letter.
The letter first contained greetings from the twins, and then told him that because their mother had caught them in an experiment, it was not appropriate to mail them information and materials now. It happened that Ginny was going to visit Hermione tomorrow, and they could just take advantage of this
I took the opportunity to visit Lane and take some things home with me.
At the end of the letter, the twins said that if Ryan is free, please reply to them as soon as possible.
Ryan glanced at the wilting owl huddled in the basket and felt that it might really kill it if it was allowed to deliver letters in this weather.
The parents welcomed the visit from Ryan's friends, especially when they learned that the visiting friend was the child of the Ministry of Magic official who came to the house to guide Ryan before he entered school. After all, Mr. Weasley left a good impression on the family back then.
Her mother, Sally, said that she had been worried that Ryan would be a little lonely at school and have no friends. Now it is good news to have classmates come to visit him.
So after finishing the meal, Ryan wrote his reply and went to Hermione's house despite the falling snowflakes to ask her to borrow the owl.
After ringing the doorbell, the door opened, and it was Hermione who opened the door.
"Ryan, what's wrong with you coming here so early?"
"I'd like to borrow your Hermes because I need to reply to a letter from the Weasley twins, and their Errol looks like he really can't deliver the letter anymore."
"I know about this. The twins should come over with Ginny tomorrow. You can come in and have a cup of tea first. I'll finish writing the reply to Ginny and have Hermes send it over with me."
After wiping off the slush from his shoes on the non-slip mat at the door, Ryan walked into Hermione's home. The overall style of her home was more cool-toned, with the walls painted light blue and the furniture all in similar colors.
The gray sofa in the living room is arranged in an L shape, with a small coffee table in the middle. There is a fireplace on the wall further forward. For example, there are bookshelves on both sides, filled with books. There are some small photo frames here and there.
, all of which are photos of Hermione and her family.
Afterwards, Ryan sat on the sofa and drank a cup of black tea, watching Hermione sitting at the dining table in the small restaurant nearby and writing letters.
"Why are you the only one at home on Christmas?" Ryan asked a little strangely.
"Not even last time we went treasure hunting and made a lot of money, my parents decided to expand their dental clinic. Today the renovation workers said they found a problem somewhere, so they rushed there." Hermione said.
Talk while writing the letter.
"Can you still find decoration workers at Christmas?" Ryan looked shocked. After living in the UK for so many years, he had never seen workers who could work overtime during the holidays unless it was an emergency, except of course the house elves.
"These people are your compatriots hired in Chinatown, or your father helped introduce them. After being paid overtime, they work more actively than my parents. That's good. I guess my parents' dental clinic will be closed by the end of the Christmas holiday."
We can continue to operate.”
Soon Hermione finished writing the letter and hung her own letter and Ryan's letter on the legs of her owl. Then Ryan took the owl from the shelf to the window and let it fly. He felt that the owl seemed fatter than when he bought it.
.
The owl quickly disappeared into the gray sky, and Ryan took the opportunity to say goodbye to Hermione and go home.
Early the next morning, following the sound of a car, the Weasley twins got out of an old turquoise Ford Anglia car and knocked on the door of Ryan's house.
"Huh? Your father sent you here?" Ryan asked after opening the door and inviting the Weasley twins in, looking at the people in the car slowly driving away behind them.
"Of course, our mother doesn't trust us two bringing our lovely sister to London."
"It just so happened that our father had to work overtime today, so he asked him to drive us here. Now he is sending our sister Ginny to Hermione's place, and will take us back when he comes home at noon."
The twins answered one by one, and Ryan took them to the living room and made them a cup of tea. Today, Ryan's parents went shopping in the commercial street to make room for their son, and Ryan was the only one at home.
"Okay, tell me where is the progress of your research now?" Ryan asked after everyone sat down on the sofa in the living room.
