Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 17: Crossing the lake


Actually, children living in the wizarding world are usually bored. The Weasleys' Burrow is in the hills and trees just south of the village of Autry-San Catchpole. However, most Muggles Never even found a house there.

There are only four wizarding residents nearby, and Diggory's is the closest, but still miles away.

Both sides can only visit by broom, or by other means. In fact, the children of the four families have basically no contact.

The Weasley children rarely go to Autry-San Catchpole, let alone hang out with ordinary Muggles.

However, the twins said their brother had a Muggle friend who was a beautiful girl.

"Generally Muggles are difficult to get along with. They always think we are weird and usually can't hang out together, and... my home is far from the town."

Lee Jordan's situation is even worse, he is the only one in his family, so sometimes he doesn't even have a playmate.

Albert is much better than them. He has a sister, a stack of books, and occasionally plays ball with others. However, it's usually not playing with a bunch of little kids either, it's boring after all.

Although he doesn't have any real good friends, Albert is quite popular at school. After all, she has excellent grades and is very good in all aspects. She is also the type that speaks better, and she also knows how to manage interpersonal relationships.

Albert asked the three of them that children in the wizarding world don't actually go to Muggle schools.

It's really hard to imagine that a family like Malfoy would let their children go to Muggle schools?

Obviously not.

Of course, there are exceptions for some wizards.

However, the twins have never been there, and their initial knowledge is taught by their family.

"By the way, in the wizarding family, is there a family called Smith?" Albert asked, his grandfather's original family was Smith. Later, he followed Muggle relatives and changed his name at will.

It can be seen how much he hated the guy who abandoned him.

"Haven't heard, how about you, George?" Fred looked at his twin brother.

"I haven't heard of it either." Li Jordan shook his head. "Anything?"

"It's nothing, I still don't know where I heard this surname." Albert moved his eyes to the window, the visibility was very low, and the sky was gradually darkening.

In other words, he didn't realize that Li Jordan is a talker, this guy likes to talk non-stop.

The three of them wouldn't feel bored, anyway, it was boring in the cubicle, listening to him nagging things was like hypnosis.

Albert reopened his eyes, feeling the train seem to slow down.

"The train will arrive at Hogwarts in five minutes. Please leave your luggage on the train and we will take you to school." A voice echoed through the loudspeaker on the train.

"Merlin's beard has finally arrived." Fred stretched lazily, and his spirit was not very good after sitting on the train for too long.

George helped pack the snacks on the table and put them in Albert's suitcase.

The train finally stopped, and the four walked out of the compartment, shoving along with the crowd of people in the aisle of the train, and swarmed towards the door.

When I got out of the car, it was really busy. They descended to a dark and small platform, and the cold rain was pouring down, and the chill of the night made Albert shiver.

"I hate rain." Albert muttered, took out his wand and chanted a spell on the pointed hat, "Fire and water will not invade."

"First-year freshmen! First-year freshmen come here!" A loud voice shouted on the platform. He raised the oil lamp above everyone's heads and shook it, attracting the attention of the freshmen.

"What are you doing, keep up." Fred reached out and gave him a hand.

"Wait a minute." Albert also chanted the robe on his body, and he didn't know if the spell would work, but it was better than nothing.

"Come on, Albert." Lee Jordan urged.

"Don't worry, it's here. The fluorescent light is flashing." Albert raised his wand and walked towards Hagrid, who was really a tall man with a long beard and looked scary from a distance of.

If you don't know it, you might think it's some kind of dangerous person. It's really scary.

"Are there any first-year freshmen? We're all here, let's go!" Hagrid took them off the platform, losing the shelter of the platform, and the icy rain hit him, causing the freshmen to get goosebumps all over their bodies. pimple.

"Be careful under your feet," Hagrid shouted, but it didn't help at all. Because of the rain, the path was muddy, and many people fell down several times along the way.

Albert pulled his pointed hat and robe to wrap himself tightly. Fortunately, the Water and Fire Invulnerability Mantra worked, and he didn't turn into a **** like the others.

Why didn't I learn to use my wand to make an umbrella? No, Albert remembered that he had a folding umbrella in his suitcase.

He's a little annoyed, mad at himself.

Albert decided to take the time to learn that useful magic, so he wouldn't have to worry about not bringing an umbrella when it rained.

"Are you okay?" In front of him, another unlucky guy fell.

"Thank you, this journey is really boring." The girl who was helped up said gratefully

"Let's go." Albert let go of the opponent's hand and used his wand to explore the path ~IndoMTL.com~ and slowly walked forward.

This is definitely the worst freshman class. Many people fell and were covered in mud.

He also heard whispering insults from Lee Jordan, whom he didn't want, who had just been taken by the people around him.

Albert suddenly felt that it was a wise decision to stay behind, at least not to be taken down.

"Be careful, it's going downhill," shouted Hagrid ahead. After he got down, he waited to avoid a student slipping on the steep slope.

It turned out to be a wise decision indeed, there were three hapless people who almost fell, but Hagrid caught them in time.

"Be careful, we'll be at the lake soon."

After everyone went down the hill, Hagrid stepped forward to lead the way again. They bumped around a corner and finally reached a black lake.

On the hillside on the other side of the lake, stands a castle, which is Hogwarts Castle.

The windows of the castle are flickering with lights, especially in the dark rain.

"No more than four people per boat. Remember, no more than four people!" Hagrid called to the newcomer, pointing to the boat on the shore.

"Albert, this way." One of the twins beckoned to him, and Lee Jordan was here, and they were all covered in dirt and looked very embarrassed.

"You guys are all right." Albert couldn't help laughing and got on the boat.

"It's bad, I fell once and got carried twice."

"Get on the boat," Hagrid shouted. After he made sure no one was overloaded with the light, he took a boat by himself. "Very well, then... go ahead."

The boat is automatic without paddles, rowing forward across the lake.

Albert looked up at the castle in front of him, vaguely excited, Hogwarts, here I come.
