On September 1st, Albert woke up early, got up from the bed, put his clothes on, exercised his body a little, and made himself completely awake.
Today, He is finally going to Hogwarts and he can't help but feel a little excited.
After washing up, Albert began to check his luggage.
"Are you awake? Then go downstairs to eat." Daisy wearing an apron pushed opened the door into the room and said to Albert who was checking the luggage. "By the way, put your robe and peaked hat on top of the luggage. It's easy to find when changing clothes in the car that way."
"Albert, are you really not taking Tom to school?" Niya in her pajamas hugged the shorthair cat and hurried into the room.
"Let Tom stay with you." Albert said.
"Where is Shera?" Niya asked again.
"It will fly to Hogwarts by itself to find me. I asked and they said that there is an owl shack over at the school. It will live there." Albert didn't want to take an owl to King's Cross Attracting the attention of many people.
The breakfast was as simple as always. Daisy also prepared him a ham sandwich and a drink can for him to eat and drink when he was hungry.
As Food is naturally sold on the train Daisy is not worried that Albert will be hungry. Herb gave him the remaining Gallon that they had exchanged. The amount is considerable. They are not worried about Albert spending money because there is no similar precedent...
The cumbersome suitcase was released by Albert with the Levitating Charm and was easily carried into the car.
"Did you bring a camera?" Herb asked, "Is that the camera your grandfather Luke bought you?"
"Take it, I will write to home every week and send back photos by the way." Albert said.He didn't forget this as he was going to take some pictures of Hogwarts and share it with his family.
"That's good." Herb nodded, "Now let's Go."
The family arrived at Kings Cross Station before ten o'clock. Herb helped Albert put the suitcase on the cart.
Albert pushed his luggage to the side of the wall between platform 9 and platform 10. He made a quiet gesture, and casually reached out and probed the wall, to make sure he could pass through.
Albert breathed a sigh of relief after seeing his hand dissappear into the wall and returned to Herb's side and said, "OK, then I'll go in by myself."
"Remember to write," Herb said, "and pictures."
"I know." Albert looked at his sister. "Niya?"
"Cunning Albert, I want to go too." Niya stretched out her hand and gave Albert a hug after complaining nevertheless.
"Don't mess around at home, don't cause trouble to everyone." Albert asked.
"I won't." Niya turned her head and pretended to be angry.
"Son, see you during winter vacation." Daisy gave Albert a hug before parting, then kissed him on the cheek and said, "When the time comes, I will take you to go skiing."
"Yes, see you during the winter vacation." Albert pushed the car, looked around to make sure there was no one, then trot to the wall.
"He Disappeared." Niya pointed to the place where Albert disappeared and said.
"Magic is always so magical, let's go back." Herb reached out his arm putting it around his wife and daughter and said, "Don't worry, Albert will take care of himself."
On the other side of the brick wall, Albert found himself at another station. A crimson steam locomotive (a Train) was parked by the platform. The sign on the train read: Hogwarts Express.
There were not many passengers beside the platform. The train departed at 11 o'clock. It was less than 10 o'clock now, and he arrived an hour earlier.
After entering the platform, new prompts appeared on the panel that The Nine and three-quarters platform was found, and was rewarded 100 experience points.
'I also have experience in exploring the map, but only very little he thought to himeself'. Albert didn't care too much. As if thinking of something, he quickly moved away from the entrance to avoid being hit by people behind.
The place where the ticket gate was originally used has now been turned into an archway, and there is still a sign on the top of it: Platform 9 and 3/4.
Sure enough, it was almost as described in the book.
In other words, this is the first time Albert has taken this kind of vintage train. It is really antique.
He strolled on the station with his luggage, randomly found an empty compartment, used the floating spell to move the suitcase in, found a place to put it, and closed the door with his hand. Then, he began to change himself into wizard robes.
Not long after Albert opened the window, Shera flew over and landed on the table. It seemed that it was not going to fly to Hogwarts by itself, but was going to take a ride.
"What a clever little guy." Albert touched Shera's head, took out the owl nuts from the box, and put them down next to the little guy.
"By the way, take a photo for the family, I almost forgot about it." Albert took the camera back to the platform and gave the Hogwarts Express a few close-up photos.
It's a pity that his photography skills are really not good, and the photos he takes are only average.
Fortunately, Luke probably also expected this situation and prepared a lot of negatives for him.
"This is not bad." Albert picked a photo with the locomotive, nodded in satisfaction, and returned to his car.
He sat down by the window and looked at the platform half-shroudedly. After some period of time, the number of passengers on the platform gradually increased, and the sky started to rain lightly.
"I always think it rains every time I go to Hogwarts." Albert couldn't help but vomit, feeling that he was right to come early.
The wizard on the platform, holding umbrellas in his hands, hurriedly bid farewell to his family in the rain, looking a little embarrassed.
'I don't know, how many acquaintances I can meet?'
Albert did not expect to meet the protagonist now. He entered Hogwarts earlier than Harry Potter, and he should be in the same class as the Weasley brothers and Cedric Diggory.
Fortunately, it was not with the savior as Albert didn't want to have too much involvement with Potter trio before he was strong enough to take care of himself.
After all, that is the savior. He is born with a halo of pig's feet and a halo of death. If ordinary people are affected, there is no lucky aura protector/Plot armour and you can get cold/die if you decide to stick close to Potter. Cedric Diggory is an example.
The rain outside got heavier and heavier and Albert narrowed the gap in the window. After Shera had eaten enough, she began to doze off. After all, the owl is a nocturnal bird.
Albert took out a chocolate candy from his pocket, opened the bag and put it in his mouth, listening to the rain outside, Albert was in a good mood.
As long as he doesn't get caught in the rain, he doesn't hate the rain.
The car corridor gradually became lively, but Albert closed the compartment door, and the noise in the corridor did not affect him much.
Opening the "Dark Force: A Guide to Self-Defense", he read it slowly, and passed the trivial time by reading. Albert has read this book more than once, and he has tried some of the spells on it.
In fact, throughout the summer vacation, Albert tried all the spells he knew, except for the Unforgivable Curse, and even tried the Patronus Curse, but the result was naturally unsuccessful.
"Quickly, the train is about to depart."
On the platform ,a group of people attracted Albert's attention. The family was hurriedly saying goodbye. Among them were a pair of red-haired twin brothers.
"This is the Weasley family?" Albert looked at the group of celebrities, feeling quite happy. Especially Ron Weasley, who still looks a little silly now. There was a girl next to Ron, probably Ginny, and she followed Mrs. Weasley, seeming to feel sorry for not being able to go to Hogwarts.
Albert compared Ginny with his sister. Well, it turns out that his sister is more cute.
The Weasleys looked a little rushed, probably because they were delayed before they came to the station.
Albert looked back because someone was knocking on the door.
A black guy stood outside the cubicle.
