The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

Tom thought the package was sent to the wrong place at first, but after reading the contents of the second letter, he realized that it was not wrong, it was sent to him.

"Professor McGonagall is trying to catch coolies." Tom saw through Professor McGonagall's intention at a glance.

He Tom is very busy, has two part-time jobs, and has a lot of books to read at the same time, but Professor McGonagall gave too much! The knowledge provided by these two notebooks and lesson plans is enough for Tom to upgrade Transfiguration to level 2.

More importantly, Tom was not disgusted by this kind of thing, so he went back to the dormitory to pack his things, took two days off, and set off for Eastbourne.

Eastbourne, East Sussex, 8am

Tom came by accident, it was raining in Eastbourne when he came. Fortunately, there was no wind, or Tom would have been splashed with water.

The sky was overcast because of the rain.

When Tom came to No. 17 Burlington Square, he found that it was a two-story villa with a strong Western European style, with a small yard. The yard seemed to have not been taken care of in time, but the previous foundation was still there, so It's just a little messy, but overall it looks pretty good.

The rain kept falling, and there was already standing water in the yard. There is a pool-like thing in the yard, and some aquatic plants such as lotus leaves are raised in it. At this moment, a cat was struggling in the pool—somehow, this big orange cat fell into the pool. Its life is like a candle in the wind, and it may drown at any time.

The curtains on the side bedroom window on the second floor slowly lowered, and inside a very delicate little girl was choosing what to wear today: a black vest and a light blue short-sleeved top; a long-sleeved shirt with a small black skirt; a set that looks Kind of like a maid uniform.

The three sets of clothes were neatly spread on her bed, and her bed was well made, with almost no wrinkles on the sheets. A little brown bear doll is lying upright among the pillows, and with the clean floor and neat furniture in the room, it is not difficult to see that the little owner of this bedroom has obsessive-compulsive disorder: she likes to keep everything under her own control, without any trace of it. chaos.

In the end, the girl chose a suit with a long-sleeved shirt and a black skirt.

With a faint smile, she stood by the wall of the bedroom, looking at her wall full of trophies, medals, and certificates. However, when her eyes swept across the letter on the table, a trace of confusion finally flashed in her eyes.

The letter said she had been accepted to a school called "Hogwarts" and that's fine, it's normal for a bright little girl like her to be seen by all kinds of schools, but it's magic School!

This is a bit subversive.

Peggy's father instinctively thought it was a prank. Peggy was a little dubious: what would she do if the magic world broke into her little world so unreasonably?

Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Peggy shuddered, she had an intuition that the visitor had something to do with Hogwarts.

Peggy's father, Mr. Grossman, opened the door and saw a handsome young man standing outside the door. The young man was holding an umbrella and wearing a black wizard's robe. He asked politely, "Is it Peggy? The Grossmans? I'm Tom Yodell, a sophomore at Hogwarts, here to help her with the pre-entry process."

Grossman was a little speechless: The initiator of this prank was too serious, right? And specially invited people to come to the door...

Just when he started to recall which of his business partners had such a bad taste, something incomprehensible happened to him.

He watched helplessly as the boy waved his hand, and an orange object flew over from his pool.

"This cat is about to drown in your pool. Is it your cat?"

"No..." Mr. Grossman said subconsciously.

Tom shook his head, hugged the dying orange cat gently, then glanced at Mr. Grossman, he just woke up like a dream, and hurried Tom into the house - it was raining to keep people standing outside. impolite.

Tom walked into the villa and put away his umbrella. The rain slid down the umbrella, dripped onto the ground, pooled in a pool, and made a mess of the clean floor. Tom was a little embarrassed, so he pointed to the ground again: "Clean up!"

The water stains are gone.

Tom gently put the umbrella in the umbrella stand, then hugged the orange cat and asked Mr. Grossman, "Can we talk?"

So he was soon seated at the Grossman table, and Mr. Grossman served him a cup of hot chocolate. Tom looked around the interior: it was clean and tidy, and the appliances were all new. Combined with the location of the house, it could be said that the Grossmans were in a good financial situation.

Mr. Grossman is also forgiving Tom, this uninvited guest is too young, with half-length black hair, deep black eyes and three-dimensional facial features, this young man looks quite handsome. A pure black wizard's robe added a little mysterious temperament to him.

Thinking of what he just did, Mr. Grossman has completely believed his identity~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Grossman asked cautiously: "So, is the magic real? Peggy is really Going to a magic school?"

"Yes, Mr. Grossman, your daughter has been admitted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the No. 1 wizarding school in Europe and even the world." Tom took a sip of hot chocolate, just like Professor McGonagall back then. , introduces Mr. Grossman to the wizarding world.

"That's it, I was entrusted by Minerva McGonagall, the vice-principal of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, to come here to invite your daughter to study at Hogwarts."

Mr. Grossman hesitated for a while. It was a difficult decision for him. Once he agreed, it meant that his daughter, who had depended on him since childhood, would leave him and go to a completely unfamiliar world, and he could not help at all.

"Excuse me, is Hogwarts a school for several years? Does it have to be boarding? I mean, can I go to school..." Mr. Grossman was still lucky, he felt that if Hogwarts was a day school If she was a school, her daughter could see her every night, so it didn't seem like a big problem to learn magic.

Unfortunately, Tom ruthlessly pierced his fantasy: Hogwarts is a seven-year school located in the Scottish Highlands and does not accept day school.

"Hogwarts is a school with a history of more than a thousand years, while the history of the British Ministry of Magic is only a mere three hundred years. Every graduate of Hogwarts can find a decent enough job, worthy of It is worth mentioning that all previous Ministers of Magic have been graduates of Hogwarts. And your daughter was only eighteen when she graduated, so she has many choices." Tom analyzed for Mr. Grossman going to Hogwarts Advantages of going to school.

Seeing that Mr. Grossman was still hesitant, Tom said: Why don't you listen to Peggy's opinion?
