Harry Potter’s Morning Light

Chapter 8: Hogwarts Express (Part 2)



  Chapter 8 Hogwarts Express (Part 2)

The fields that drove past the car windows became more deserted, the farmland had disappeared, and with it was a woods, a curvy river, and dark green hills. At Lily’s request, Snape only ate one of them. Sandwiches without touching the sweets that all eleven-year-olds like, and then went on reading.

During the meal, Pomona realized that Lily did not like to read that much. She would also be very talkative if someone wanted to chat with her. It was just that Snape was with her, so she was forced to become a person who loves to read. , When she learned that Pomona had never been to the Muggle world, she began to enthusiastically talk about everything about Muggles, such as photos that could not move and cars that could not fly, and of course her sister Petunia .

   "At least we can't meet until the winter vacation, and she won't come to see me off." Lily looked depressed, as if she cared about her sister.

Pomona didn’t want to comment on people she hadn’t met, so she stuffed a strawberry into her mouth. At this time, she accidentally discovered that the textbook Lily was reading was brand new, while the book Snape was reading was obviously second-hand. , And then she began to observe carefully. Even his robes are second-hand. Generally speaking, everyone will change into school uniforms when they are near school, but he changed them early, as if to hide the old clothes under his school uniforms. .

   "Hey, Sirius, see whose picture I got!" someone shouted in the quiet aisle.

   To be honest, he was really noisy. Snape had opened the box door to let the air circulate, but now he closed it again.

  Lily looked at Pomona and stopped talking.

  "Want to try your luck?" Pomona took out four chocolate frogs from the picnic basket. "Which one do you pick?"

  "I'll pick...this!" Pomona gave her the chocolate frog that Lily had chosen. When she opened the carton, the frog immediately jumped out, and the two girls hurriedly caught it.

   "What is this!" Lily is very new, although her hair was messed up by the jokes just now.

   "Like I said, chocolate frogs!" Pomona panted. "Each chocolate frog has pictures inside. You can collect them and see who you get?"

Lily opened the paper box and took out the picture inside. On it was a man's face, with a pair of half-moon glasses, and a long crooked nose. His gray hair and beard covered most of his face. The name written below is Albus Dumbledore.

  "Who is he?" Lily gave the picture to Pomona.

  "You can look at the back of the picture." Pomona turned to look at Snape. "Are you going to try it? Mr. Snape?"

   Snape really ignored her.

  At this time, she turned her gaze to Lily again, the joy on her face had faded, and she looked a little sad.

   "What's wrong with Lily?"

   "It says that he defeated the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945." Lily said softly, "Someone told me that Grindelwald would destroy all Muggles."

   "Like you just said, destroying all dementors, Muggles are indeed a threat to wizards. Do you know Druids?"

   "I have heard of them."

"Druids mean the goddess of the forest. They were not only monks, but also doctors, teachers, and judges. They were not only monks, but also doctors, teachers, and judges. They taught young people with magic, but they were slaughtered during Roman rule. End, this is the contradiction between wizards and Muggles." Pomona said sharply. "If you plan to join wizards, you have to get used to keeping a distance from Muggles. They believe in science more than magic."

   "So, are you a Grindelwald supporter?" Snape asked in a low voice in a silky voice.

   "No!" Pomona shook her head, "I'm just tired of war, and I'm not interested in letting wizards become rulers again."

  "Do you not like to use magic upright?"

   "Could you not talk about such a dull topic." Pomona felt that this topic was too heavy, and she wanted to improve the formula of tiramisu more than talking about it.

   "Then what do you want to talk about?" Snape asked perfunctorily.

   "Are you a couple?"

   "No, of course not!" As soon as Pomona's voice fell, Lily immediately yelled, "We are just friends."

   Pomona looked at Snape, his eyes were like the endless abyss without any mood swings, still looking at the book in his hand.

   "Besides, we are only eleven years old. It's too early to talk about this." Lily said as if she was dead, she didn't know how much Snape could listen to.

  Perhaps in the hearts of Lily and Snape, they have defined themselves as a girl with only cakes and love in their heads, but Pomona doesn't care what they think, she clearly feels that she is not the same with them.

Hefpaff represents mediocre qualifications, Lily is very beautiful, she will be very eye-catching, and Snape is also very eye-catching from another aspect. Last time, she had suffered enough by acting high-profile. In the next few years, she I plan to dispatch at the same low level, and it is a good idea to keep a distance from them.

   "Pomona." Lily said at a loss, "Why do you prepare lunch for four?"

   "The banquets at Hogwarts are all prepared by Hefpaff. We are used to sharing." Pomona smiled and said, "Food makes people feel happy."

   "No." Snape looked away from the book, "Power can make people feel happy."

  Pomona felt that she would never understand Slytherin. Isn’t it more important to learn how to get along with others than to conquer and rule?

The next journey became dull again. Lily took out the book and began to read again. Pomona was no longer in the mood to chat. She looked at the scenery flying outside the window and watched the sky gradually turn from bright to dark. It was the letter from her father.

Pomona, my dearest, forgive me for not seeing you for so many years. I’m inconvenient to say more in the letter, but I hope you can know that I love you and your mother very much. I have never abandoned you. , This year you are eleven years old. The British style is not good. Maybe you want to go back to France and go to Busbarton to study, but I must tell you, even if you go to Scandinavia, don’t go there, Hogwar. Zi is the best choice. Love your dad.

  Pomona didn’t know why Busbarton became dangerous, but she still chose to trust her father, a person she had always hated.

  Many people think that a beautiful girl shouldn’t be wise. It's very good to deceive, but she would rather believe that her mother really fell in love with her father and gave birth to her.

  Mrs. Sprout’s home is far away from human society. This may be to protect her, or some secret, and to protect their safety, her father must leave her.

  She has a little excitement about the next life, but she must learn to keep secrets before she can enjoy life, because this is the world of wizards.
