Chapter 1: Continuous Surprises

In the early morning, a handsome young man stared at the envelope in front of him.

His name is Adam Lee, he is a mixed race, and today is the day before his eleventh birthday in this life.

Originally, his plan today was to get up early and go for a morning run... just like every other day, but this morning the fat Scottish round-faced chicken broke his peaceful day...

It can also be said that it broke his peaceful life.

His original life plan was to study hard and make progress every day, and then inherit his mother's seven Chinese restaurants and his father's three French restaurants, enjoy his healthy body and spend his ordinary life.

But now, looking at the school emblem consisting of a lion, a snake, a badger, and an eagle surrounding the capital letter "H" on the envelope, Adam seemed to see a noseless bald man suddenly entering his future life who smiled "hehehehe."

He just recalled that he and the famous Savior happened to be born in the same year, and their birthdays were six days apart - in other words, if this letter was not a prank by someone, he happened to enter school in the same year as Harry Potter. . It is a pity that there is no fantasy novel called "Harry Potter" in this world and this era.

In other words, if nothing unexpected happens, he will spend an exciting seven years in the safest magic school in the world:

In the first year, Voldemort came to steal the Sorcerer's Stone. In the second year, the Basilisk invaded. In the third year, the Dementors came to the school. In the fourth year, the Triwizard Tournament was restarted. In the fifth year, Umbridge physically punished the students. In the sixth year, the principal was attacked. After his death, the seventh-year school directly turned into a battlefield.

Wow~ It’s really exciting (laughs).

"Hey, mom, how is your business today?"

"Well, I miss you too."

"The main reason I'm calling is to talk to you about my decision to go to junior high school in China...or the United States or France, but not in the UK."

"I'm not talking nonsense, I'm not sick, I'm mentally stable."

"I haven't told dad yet...well, I will wait for you to come back."

After hanging up the phone, Adam opened the envelope, looked at the wording inside which was almost the same as in his memory, and sighed.

Whenever he was born seven years earlier or seven years later, Hogwarts was his dream school. He could jump up and down with excitement when he received this letter - except during this time period.

I can only see if I have the opportunity to go to Hogwarts to be a teacher for a year after graduation and take a look around.

Her parents came back faster than expected. After arriving home, Ms. Li hurriedly threw her bag on the sofa and entered the family meeting mode. Mr. Reed also quickly rushed to the battlefield after parking the car.

"My dear, if you feel tired from studying, we can definitely take a year off and take a break."

"Although we always praise you because of your good grades, we don't love you because of your good grades. No matter how good your studies are, you are our pride. You must not be burdened."

"The store is not busy during this time. How about we go to Disney World for a while?"

Perhaps it was because they had communicated in the car before, but both of them obviously thought that Adam said this because he was under too much pressure to study.

"Mom and Dad, it's not because of study pressure."

Adam took out the Hogwarts letter and showed it to the two of them:

"It's because of this."

Adam did not hide the fact that he was a wizard. Although he did not plan to go to Hogwarts, he still planned to learn magic. Hogwarts is not the only magic school in the world.

His grandmother is French and his mother is Chinese. He can go anywhere, it is always safer than the dire straits of Hogwarts.

"Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?"

The two people who picked up the letter and read it looked at each other and saw a hint of confusion in each other's eyes.

Is this some kind of prank...

"Wait! I seem to have heard this name somewhere..."

Mr. Reed suddenly frowned and fell into memory.

Um? ! The Ministry of Magic's oblivion has something slipping through the net?

Just when Adam was surprised, Mr. Reed slapped his head:

"Ah! I remembered. Isn't this the fairy tale my parents told me when I was a child? Dragons, magic, etc. It seems like a birthday surprise prepared by your grandparents for you."

Recalling his childhood memories, Mr. Reed looked nostalgic:

"When I was eleven years old, they said there would be a surprise. In the end, they prepared a big three-layer cake for me. I don't know what they will prepare for you?"

Adam opened his mouth and looked at his father with a complicated expression. He seemed, maybe, to know something...

"Otherwise, I'd better call my grandparents and ask."

Although he roughly guessed what happened, Adam still wanted to confirm.

"Well, that's not good. After all, it's a surprise prepared by your grandparents. They might be unhappy if I expose it."

Mr. Reed hesitated, and even regretted telling the truth so quickly.

His relationship with his parents is somewhat delicate.

To be honest, he has been very close to his parents since he was a child, and his parents fully supported and provided financial support when he wanted to start a business and open a restaurant.

But to be honest, his parents asked him to move out the day he came of age. They rarely visited them over the years, only making phone calls at most.

"It's better to call and ask. I'm really curious. Let me ask."

Seeing Adam's insistence, the couple had no objection. Adam directly picked up the phone in the living room and started dialing.

It didn't take long for the phone to be picked up.

"Jerry, what's the matter?"

Grandpa Adam's voice sounded from the other side.

"Grandpa, it's me."

"Oh, it's baby Adam, do you have anything to do with grandpa?"

Listening to the tone of the other person who suddenly became softer by several degrees, Adam felt inexplicably nervous:

"Grandpa, do you know Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry?"

"..."

There was a sudden silence on the other side, and then Grandpa's somewhat excited voice sounded:

"Hogwarts! You got the letter, right honey! Merlin's pants! I knew it! I've been waiting for this all month! Emma! Come on!"

Then there was a vague call that was a little far away from the receiver, and grandpa's voice became clear again:

"Listen kid, stay home, your grandparents will be here soon!"

After his grandfather finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Adam put down the phone, looked at his parents, and pursed his lips:

"Grandpa said they would be here soon."

"Arrived soon? But they are in Devon..."

Before Mr. Reed finished speaking, he heard the doorbell ringing.

"..."

The three people in the room looked at each other. Mr. Reed stood up and walked to the door, opening it nervously:

"Mom and Dad?!"

"Oh son, we miss you so much~"

The old Mr. and Mrs. Reed at the door hugged Mr. Reed, then walked directly in and walked towards Adam:

"Honey, show us the letter quickly!"

Mr. Reed standing at the door: "???"

I felt like I was loved briefly, and then... "pop", it was gone.

Ms. Li handed the letter to her parents-in-law and was keenly aware that Adam had not mentioned the letter on the phone just now.

If the letter was prepared by the old couple, so the two of them knew about it, and the appearance now was because the two of them rushed to the neighborhood in advance, just to prepare a surprise for their son...

But what happened to the phone call that went through?

"Okay, great, Merlin bless you..."

The old couple turned over the letter and envelope several times. Suddenly, old Reed raised his head:

"By the way, have you told your father-in-law about this?"

Seeing Ms. Li's confused eyes, Old Reed nodded:

"Okay, I'll contact you and make him happy."

Adam: "???"

Any surprises? !
