Finally, the hour hand on the big clock at the train station reached the departure time. It looked like the train would be late.
"It's over," Ron said blankly, "the train has left. What if mom and dad can't come to pick us up? Do you have any Muggle money with you?"
Harry laughed dryly, "The Dursleys haven't given me pocket money for six years."
"I'm okay," Ryan said, "I still have more than 30 pounds on me."
Ron relaxed a little after hearing Ryan's answer, and then put his ear to the cold partition wall.
"There is no sound," he said nervously, "What should we do? We don't know how long it will take for our parents to come back to find us."
Since Harry's owl kept hooting, it attracted too much attention, so Harry suggested waiting for the Weasleys by the car.
At this time, Ron seemed to think of something because of the word car, and said excitedly to Ryan and Harry:
"We can drive to Hogwarts!" We're stuck, right? We have to get back to school, right? In a real emergency, little wizards can use magic. Restrictions No.
Article 19 or which paragraph has the regulations..."
"Stop!" Ryan waved his hand to Ron. "Don't forget we are only 12 years old. Do you think it is really appropriate for someone who has not learned to drive to drive a flying car across the entire UK? If it falls, I will
The levitation spell cannot save three people."
Harry shook his head after listening to Ryan's words. He found that Ron's method was inappropriate. After all, even in the Muggle world, you have to study in a driving school and obtain a driver's license before you can drive. According to what he observed while living in the Weasley family,
It is absolutely impossible for Mrs. Weasley to allow Ron to fly around in the car. Harry also does not want to put his life in the hands of such a novice driver.
"Then what do you think we should do? We can't go to Hogwarts now." Seeing that Harry didn't support his point of view, Ron said anxiously.
"Let's go out quickly. I think my father hasn't left yet. He can help us go to the Leaky Cauldron. When we get there, we should be able to find someone who can help us." Ryan said to Harry and the others.
"You are truly a genius. You deserve to have the highest test score among us." Ron patted Ryan on the shoulder, and then the three of them pushed the trolley quickly towards the parking lot.
When he arrived at the parking lot, Ryan found that his father, Mr. Lambert, had not left yet. He was surprised to see his child and two other classmates walking towards him pushing a trolley.
"Shouldn't you take the train to school? Why are you back so soon?" Mr. Lambert asked with some confusion.
"Well, there's something wrong with the entrance and we can't get in now. So I hope you can send us to the Leaky Cauldron where we shopped last time, and we can go back to school from there."
After hearing this, Mr. Lambert asked the three of them to load all their luggage into his car. Then he took a taxi and asked the three of them to sit in the taxi, and then told the taxi driver to follow him.
Ten minutes later, they finally arrived at the Leaky Cauldron Bar. After saying goodbye to Mr. Lambert, Ryan and the others walked into the Leaky Cauldron Bar with their luggage. The bar business was not very good today, and there were not many customers drinking inside.
The boss, Tom, was sitting behind the bar cleaning glasses and was surprised when he saw them coming in: "Children, today should be the first day of school. Why are you here?"
"There seems to be something wrong with the separation wall at platform nine and three-quarters, blocking us from the outside, so we can only come here to see who can help us."
"Then you sit here for a while, and I will send a letter to your professor." After saying that, Tom took out a quill pen and wrote something on the parchment, and then sent the parchment away through the Floo network.
Ryan walked to the counter and bought three bottles of pumpkin juice, and then drank one bottle with Harry and the others while sitting at the table waiting for news. As soon as he finished drinking the pumpkin juice, he saw a flash of green flames in the fireplace of the Leaky Cauldron.
, Professor McGonagall walked out of the fireplace wearing a dark green robe, and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Ryan and the others.
"Thank God you are okay. The Ministry of Magic said there is a problem with the partition wall. I was really worried that you would do something stupid and hurt yourself because you couldn't catch the Hogwarts Express. Fortunately, you knew how to go to the Leaky Cauldron for help."
"Now that the train has left, how should we get to school?" Harry asked Professor McGonagall.
"Don't worry kids, we are going to use the Floo Network directly to Hogsmeade Station now. Ryan, you have never used the Floo Network before, just watch me and learn how to use it."
After saying that, Professor McGonagall threw a pinch of Floo powder into the fire, and the flame turned green. She walked in and said "Hogsmeade Station." and then disappeared.
"You come first, don't panic, don't move around, just read the right place, there is no danger." Ron said to Ryan.
Ryan pinched a handful of powder from the basin and threw it into the fire, then dragged his luggage into the fireplace. The fireplace felt as hot as if he were next to a fire, and Ryan read out his destination: "Hogsmeade Station"
.”
He felt as if he was being thrown into a washing machine and spinning around, and the vortex of green flames made him feel a little dizzy. He had no choice but to close his eyes and listen to the wind blowing by his ears.
With a final crack, he fell to the marble floor with his luggage. The dizzy Ryan used his arms to push himself up, when Professor McGonagall used the wand to clean him up and remove the soot from his body.
.
Harry and Ron who arrived later were also treated in the same way by Professor McGonagall. Professor McGonagall asked them to leave their luggage here (don't worry, someone will help you take your luggage to your dormitory later). Then he took them on the school bus.
There was nothing in front of the carriage, but Ryan knew that it was a carriage pulled by the Thestrals, and only those who had seen death could see them.
Following a rough dirt road, the carriage passed through a magnificent cast iron gate. There were stone pillars on both sides of the road, with winged wild boars on the top.
Finally, the carriage stopped at the gate of the castle after passing through a long sloping driveway.
At this time, the system issued a prompt in Ryan's mind:
Harry Potter's Drive Across Britain event has been changed, gaining 6 offset points.
This number of points is more than expected. It is probably because a series of subsequent events were changed at any time, so so many offset points were obtained.
After getting off the bus, Professor McGonagall said to Ryan and the three of them: "Okay, let's get to school. Because your classmates will only arrive in the afternoon, the school is not ready yet. So I hope you can stay quietly in the common room.
, and don’t come down until the opening party. The password for the common room is Honeyeater, and I’ll have lunch brought up to you.”
