The Potters are gentle and polite people. The two greeted Sean in a friendly way, and they didn’t mean to look down on Sean’s family. They were both parents, and they got to know each other happily.
“It seems that you don’t know how to enter the platform, do you?” Lily asked gently.
“Yes, ma’am.” Sean nodded slightly.
The book described her perfectly, representing the beautiful Lily Evans, that is known as Lily Potter. She was described with slightly curly red hair, green eyes, and a gentle smile, just like her name, pure like a lily flower.
He quickly looked away because Harry tried to pull Sean.
“See that column? You just need to run through it. Remember, the speed can’t be too slow.”
Sean suddenly understood why no Muggles had tried to go in.
He pushed his cart and then glanced at him, who was still standing there, “Shall we go then?”
“Go on first. We still have to wait for someone.”
Sean nodded, pushed the car, and accelerated quickly. The wall was getting closer and closer. At the moment of collision, he felt as if he had entered a cloud, and his vision was dark. After passing through the column, Sean was already standing on the platform packed with passengers.
On the side, a dark red Hogwarts Express is ready to go.
The thick smoke of the steam locomotive wafted over the chattering crowd, and cats of various colors were walking around under everyone’s feet. Amid the humming of the crowd and the noise of lugging heavy luggage, his owls also screeched.
Sean smiled involuntarily. With the help of his father, he picked up a heavy suitcase and found an empty compartment. The train horn had already sounded when the luggage was put on the shelf.
“It’s time for us to go. Take care of yourself, and remember, write us a letter if that owl is really magical, as they say.” Mr. Wallup hugged his son heavily.
“Don’t worry, Dad.” Sean also hugged his father.
Sean waved to his family members on the platform. He saw his sister Ella running with her short legs and accidentally fell down.
“Be careful, Ella!” But Ella quickly stood up, continued to run, and waved at him with a smile.
Sean shouted, “Wait for me at home. I’ll bring you a souvenir later from Hogwarts!”
It was not until he could no longer see the platform behind him that Sean went back to his seat.
“Okay, from now on, time to learn to be a wizard.” He murmured.
Before he finished speaking, the room’s sliding door opened, and a girl with thick, fluffy brown hair stood beside him.
“Is there anyone here? God, the room where I was staying is now in just too crowded with things, and I’m a bit stressed because of those red-haired brothers. I want to hang out with someone like a normal person would on the way to Hogwarts.” The girl raised her head slightly and explained very quickly.
Sean smiled slightly, stood up politely, and made an inviting gesture, “Of course, no one’s here, and glad that I’ll be having a friend along the trip.”
“Oh, that’s delightful.” The girl blushed slightly, thanked him, and sat down.
“Nice to meet you. I’m Sean, Sean Wallup.” He introduced himself with a smile.
“My name is Hermione Granger. Do you come here alone? I only saw you when I saw your room just now.”
“No, I was with my parents. They got off the train earlier.”
“So, were your parents’ wizards? I mean, my parents didn’t understand magic. When I got the letter, I was flabbergasted, but also very happy. As far as I know, this is the best wizarding school. I have memorized all the textbooks and hope that it’ll be a really good experienced.” She said in an energetic tone.
“Yes, I’m the same as you. The book is very long. I just read it for a bit. Though, it is indeed interesting.”
Knowing that Sean came from the same background, her eyes lit up, “I know, right? The book is really magical, something that I was not expecting. I also experimented with a few spells during my vacation. Although most were basic spells, there will definitely be more advanced ones to learn after entering the school. I am a little worried about whether I can keep up with the progress.”
Sean listened to Hermione’s chatter with a smile, without showing any impatience, and gave a few sincere responses from time to time.
The two chatted for a while, there was a noise in the aisle, and a woman with a smile pushed open the door and asked, “Honey, do you want to buy something from the cart?”
“Of course.” Sean stood up, bought a lot of snacks, and put them on the seat. Hermione wanted to take out the purse during this period, but Sean stopped her with a smile.
“Consider this as a small gift from me.” He said.
Hermione accepted his kindness but still said, “Alright, but next time, it’s on my treat!”
Sean smiled and nodded.
Taking apart a chocolate frog, Sean threw it into his mouth, feeling the strange taste still moving in his mouth. He picked up the card in the package, which showed an old man.
“Oh, that’s Grindelwald.” Hermione glanced at him, “I’ve read about him in books, but I know very little.”
Sean nodded in agreement, then turned over the card.
(Gellert Grindelwald, current principal of Nurmengard. Considered one of the greatest wizards of the century. Grindelwald’s well-known contributions include: He founded the Nurmengard School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and The Wizarding Reform Association)
(He created more than 15 powerful spells. Promoted the development of the awareness of rights and interests in the contemporary wizarding world, and Professor Grindelwald loves classical music and wizard chess)
He put away his second Grindelwald card, turned his head, and asked curiously, “Speaking of which, you should have received two letters, right?”
Hermione, who was sipping the steaming honey water, put down the drink in her hand, and then covered her nose. It is a pungent drink that will emit steam after drinking it. Covering the nose can effectively prevent the steam from coming out of the nostrils.
After covering it for a while and knowing that only some transparent steam was coming out of her nostrils, Hermione blushed and said, “Yes, I also received two letters. However, the boy who came to recruit students gave me a very weird impression. I think Nurmengard is a little too arrogant in the face of ordinary people, and I don’t like that.”
Hermione’s voice came out of the room and was heard by a few people passing by. A boy with pale blond hair opened the door.
“Aren’t wizards supposed to be high above ordinary people?”
