Chapter 160 Potter's Old House
It is not surprising that Amosta knew where the Potter family's old house was for a long time, because it was almost a well-known thing in the wizarding world.
He still remembered that when he first entered Hogwarts, in order to deepen his understanding of this mysterious world unknown to Muggles, he bought the newly updated "Important Magical Events of the Twentieth Century". It records in detail the "detailed" process of the "Boy Who Lived" defeating the mighty Dark Lord.
As Amosta gradually learned about the magical world, he realized that most of the hype records in the book were compiled to bring out the mystery of the parties concerned. Still real.
Godric's Hollow - the birthplace of Godric Gryffindor, one of the great founding Big Four of Hogwarts, is located in the southwest of England. Many large and small human villages, most of the villages and towns are inhabited by Muggles and wizards, and only a few small and poor villages are purely wizards.
When Amosta got off the Muggle bus—Amosta didn't choose to take the Knight's bus, he'd done it once before, and almost threw up bile, and since then, he's been pissed at Du Gerd MacPhail's 'spirited' thing has a shadow on his mind.
There is no way to Apparate, because Amosta has never been to Godric's Hollow, and the Floo Network is a long-distance travel method that Amosta can accept. Unfortunately, he has no acquaintances here, but Godric There are no communal fireplaces on this side of the valley.
After comprehensive consideration of various travel methods, Amosta still took the Hogwarts Express back to London, and used the Muggle method to arrive at the peaceful village in the southwestern border.
As soon as he set foot on this legendary village, and glanced at the clean and tidy streets and the neat houses on both sides of the street, Amosta excluded Godric's Hollow from his future settlement options for no reason. He, the proportion of Muggle villagers living here is much higher than he imagined. If he settles here, he might as well just buy a house on the outskirts of London.
Amosta, who was dressed in Muggle attire, walked forward, and within a few minutes, he saw the war monument standing in the central square of the village.
When Amosta stood under the tall and solemn stone tablet, he felt that the obelisk approached by the wizard had changed, and it silently turned into a statue of three people.
The Potter couple and the infant Harry Potter, Amosta was silent for a while before the statue, shook his head slightly, and sighed softly,
"war--"
There are still some places worth visiting in this village, but Amosta didn't waste time because of this, he came here with a purpose.
After asking a local wizard for the specific location of Potter's old house, Amosta stepped up and walked towards the destination. After 5 minutes, Amosta, who walked past a row of houses and several shops, stood The end of this journey.
This is a two-story building painted pure white, the right wall of the room on the top floor was completely blasted, and through the hole, Amosta could see that the bedroom was already full of rubble and dust.
In front of the building there is a small grassy yard, because no one takes care of it, the fence surrounding the grassy yard has grown in a mess, and even the entrance gate is covered with ivy.
"Will you come back here to pay homage to your old master...and to see what happened to your former best friend?"
Amosta, who was staring at the dilapidated building, murmured.
Pushing aside the green vines blocking the way, the moment he stepped into the courtyard, he sensed traces of magic in the air. Feeling the fluctuations of magic power carefully, Amosta came to his senses. The expulsion spell should be to guard against Muggles and those homeless wild animals.
The knee-high weeds and nettles in the yard have many traces of being trampled on. On the soft ground, various footprints overlapped together. Amosta squatted down and studied for a while, thinking for a while, and there may be an accurate one. judgment.
He walked towards that house, that once warm home, but now it is dilapidated and dilapidated, stepped up the steps, and stood in front of the rusty iron gate.
Out of respect, those who came to pay homage to the Potters should not have broken into the house. What made Amosta make such a guess was the completely rusted handle on the iron door.
Amosta did not rush into the room immediately, but turned his head to look a few steps to the right of the stairs where he stood, at a small piece of wasteland under a broken window sash, where Amosta 'saw' a The twisted and condensed magical power, this phenomenon represents that there is magic in that wasteland.
Following a thread of magic power drawn from the twisted magic power, Amosta's eyes fell on the rusty doorknob again. After thinking for a while, he passed his palm across the pocket of his jeans, and an ebony wand appeared in his palm.
dong dong——
Amosta knocked on the doorknob with her wand, and the wasteland under the window changed immediately.
Like some kind of strange, rapidly growing flower, a huge wooden sign grew out of the soil, and following the wooden sign, there was a white marble flower stand.
This rather large flower stand was filled with flowers brought by various wizards who came here to pay homage, almost submerging the wooden plaques engraved with gold letters.

lily and james potter died here
Their son Harry is the only wizard to survive the Killing Curse
This house, invisible to Muggles, was left as it is
Commemorate the Potters with this ruin
And a warning to the violence that left their family shattered.
Amosta glanced at the neat handwriting, reading the rumors of various styles of messy handwriting on the sign, unconsciously, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth,
"Potter has been living in his aunt's house, and he should have never returned to the place where he was born. I don't know how he will feel when he sees these blessings."
A gentle breeze blew across his cheeks, lifting the strands of gray hair that covered his forehead. Amosta lowered his eyelids, restrained his smile, and his eyes became deep.
"The fate of being a hero is very heavy, Potter, I don't know if you can bear it—"
In the first half of the year, Amosta stayed in Hogwarts for more than three months, and this not too long period of time made Amosta see through some things.
On the surface, Dumbledore didn't seem to have much special care for Potter, but Amosta could sense that this thoughtful old wizard cared far more about Harry than other young wizards in the school .
On the night when the Chamber of Secrets incident ended, when he and Dumbledore were going to explore the passage on the Slytherin statue together, the two had a little disagreement about Harry's fate.
Dumbledore almost instinctively refused Harry to participate in explorations that might be dangerous, while Amosta believed that if young people wanted to grow up, they must be given more opportunities to experience, but in fact, they have already lived to that point. Doesn't the old Dumbledore understand this simple truth?
Of course Dumbledore understood, but the concern for Harry made him lose the coldness that a leader should have
If he has always held such an attitude towards training Harry, he is expected to shoulder the important task of destroying Voldemort in the future. To be honest, Amosta is not optimistic about this kind of education.
Because of this disbelief, some time ago, during the summer vacation, he agreed to Harry's request and took him to the underground world. The purpose was to let Harry, who was well protected by Dumbledore, see it with his own eyes. Watch the dark side of the wizarding world and sharpen his mind.
It's not that Amosta intentionally interferes with Harry's growth, but that he wants to increase his chances of winning, if it is said that defeating Voldemort is really the mission imposed on Harry Potter by this world.
After all, a relatively stable and orderly magical world is also what he pursues.
