Chapter 36 Potter's Old House

After just finishing their meal and deciding on the arrangements for the afternoon, Ryan suddenly thought of a topic that Kate was very interested in. You should know that she was one of Dumbledore's fans and almost went to Gryffindor because of Dumbledore.

"Kate, how well do you know Dumbley?"

Kate's attention was indeed attracted and she asked, "Dumbledore, what does this have to do with Dumbledore? Aren't the Dumbledore families all in the fertile plains of England?"

Good guy, you know all about such obscure knowledge points.

"Dumbledore was just born in the Fertile Fields. He moved here with his family after his father died in Azkaban, and I saw the tombstones of his mother and sister," Ryan explained.

So Ryan took the trouble to walk back with Kate, passed by Amber's tombstone, opened the small door leading to the church, and stayed for a long time at Dumbledore's mother's tombstone.

However, the trouble is that the old Potter's house is outside the village, which is some way away.

Walking back, Ryan carried Kate effortlessly, and the lion's mane kept scratching Ryan's neck.

I visited the Harry Potter sculpture again, heading towards the street opposite the church, which leads to the outside of the village. After walking for a while, there appeared rows of houses with a ruin in the middle, surrounded by untidy hedges and waist-deep trees. of weeds.

Most of the ruins still stood, completely covered in dark ivy and snow, but the right side of the top room had been blown away.

"Is this the former residence of the Potter family?" Kate asked curiously.

"Yes." Ryan replied briefly, and couldn't help but worry about whether it was a mistake to come here, whether the atmosphere was wrong, bringing a girl to this place.

You must know that this place is not only a scenic spot, but also a symbol of Voldemort's defeat and the arrival of peace.

Kate put her hand on the door, and a wooden sign rose from the ground in front of them, emerging from the tangle of nettles and weeds like some strange, rapidly growing flower. The gold letters on the sign read:

October 31, 1981

Lily and James Potter died here,

Their son Harry was the only wizard to survive the Killing Curse.

The house, invisible to Muggles, has been preserved as a ruin as a memorial to the Potters and as a reminder of the violence that destroyed their family.

Next to these neat handwritings, there are various inscriptions written by wizards who came to pay homage to the place where the "Boy Who Lived" escaped death.

Some simply wrote their names in everlasting ink, some carved their initials on wooden plaques, and some wrote messages.

The most recent ones, gleaming with sixteen years of magical graffiti, contained much the same content.

Good luck to you, Harry, wherever you are.

Hope you read that, Harry, we’re all rooting for you!

Long live Harry Potter.

······

Ryan was also pulled by Kate and wrote a message wishing Harry Potter good luck.

Really, the pleasant atmosphere at the beginning was gone, Ryan complained secretly.

A cold little hand reached out from the back of his head and put it into Ryan's collar mischievously. "Today, I am very happy. For the first time, I realized what sacrifices are involved in the peaceful life now. It is very meaningful." Kate said like He noticed something and comforted him.

"Really, I am a time traveler, the destined savior. How could I be comforted by a little girl? Although I also thought about the deliberate side effects of this skill." Ryan smiled.

Unconsciously, the time reached six o'clock, and a black carriage appeared from the mist, accompanied by the sound of jingling bells.

"Are you Mr. Smith and Ms. Lewingster? Welcome aboard. The first stop is the Vampire Castle in Romania." A short hook-nosed wizard in black wizard robes appeared from the side of the carriage with a smile on his face. down the steps.

The hook-nosed wizard bent down and motioned for Ryan and the two to get in the car.

"What the hell? Is this called pretending to be a Muggle tour group? Is there something wrong with your definition of Muggles?" Ryan cursed. At the same time, Kate suddenly jumped off Ryan's back.

The entire carriage was in Gothic style, and the interior of the carriage was larger than expected. The ground was covered with a blood-red carpet, and bat-like magic lamps flapped their wings in the air. This is a vampire-style three-bedroom apartment with bathroom, entertainment room, and bedroom.

"Mr. Smith, Ms. Lewingster, you will spend the night dining on the carriage tonight. There is tea in the entertainment hall, and you can take whatever food you want." The hook-nosed wizard also followed, closed the door, opened the door and leaned against the entertainment room. Directly opposite the hall is a black coffin.

"That coffin turned out to be the driver's cab." Kate said seriously.

The recreation room was filled with Gobstones, Wizard Chess and other common games. Kate pulled Ryan up and walked to the sofa to play with the Gobstones.

Gobstone is a game mostly popular among wizarding children. It uses a special stone. The gameplay is similar to the Muggle marbles game. The main difference is that when one side loses points, the stones will be directed toward the person who lost the point. A foul-smelling liquid is sprayed on the face.

Ryan was speechless. That's it. Although there is a bathroom, is it cool to be cummed in the face?

"Don't you want to play? Romania is still far away, and there are so many exploding cards! Let's see who gets bombed first!" Kate suggested.

Ryan was speechless, are these the only games in the wizarding world?

"Let's take a look at the scenery. Look, how beautiful it is!" Ryan opened the one-way window next to the sofa, and the scenery passing by quickly left Ryan speechless.

"What scenery is there? I can't see anything clearly." Kate puffed up her face.

"Mr. Ryan, when we get to the castle, the bat lantern will play beautiful music to remind you and your friends to get off the car." The hook-nosed wizard's voice came from the coffin, easing the awkward situation.

"However, we will arrive tomorrow morning. You only said it now. Did you forget to say it?" Ryan thought of it immediately.

Ryan took the tea on the table and poured a full cup for Kate and himself.

He took a pack of chocolate frogs and opened it, and took out the picture card. The picture card showed a man's face, wearing a pair of half-moon glasses, with a crooked long nose, silver hair and beard.

"It's Dumbledore! Ryan, you can pick him up at once. You know, I only have three Dumbledore cards!" Kate, who was stuffed with licorice wands, exclaimed.

Albus Dumbledore

Current headmaster of Hogwarts

Recognized as the greatest wizard of our time.

Dumbledore's well-known contributions include:

Defeating the dark wizard Grindelwald in 1945, discovering the twelve uses of dragon's blood, and making great achievements in alchemy with his partner Nicolas Flamel. Professor Dumbledore is fond of chamber music and ten-pin bowling.

Kate read the text on the back and complained: "There is only one bad thing about this picture. You know, Principal Dumbledore won the Barnabus Finkley Award for Excellent Spellcasting in his seventh year at Hogwarts, but he didn't have this. I even wrote a letter to remind him, but I didn't receive a single reply."

It was the first time Ryan saw Kate like this.
