Chapter 2 Leaky Cauldron
Feeling the message conveyed by the stone tablet, Wright didn't care too much.
After all, the added mileage points are not of much use without the wand and magic.
I don't know if the conditions for the formation of Obscurus have much to do with magic, so we still have to be careful.
After watching the owl fly away, Wright prepared to continue doing odd jobs and delivering newspapers.
Although I know I can go to school, I still have to work, otherwise Mrs. Kurt will worry.
I went downstairs and told Mrs. Cotter what happened when I met her before leaving.
'Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, I sent myself a notice. If you encounter some strange people coming over, please don't worry! Just wait for me to come back.'
Mrs. Cotter agreed, but she began to worry in her heart, "Will Wright be hit hard?"
Wright still worked normally as before, delivering milk in the morning, newspapers at noon, and collecting milk bottles in the afternoon.
It fully demonstrates the steadiness of office animals who have been beaten by society.
A few more days passed, and when Wright returned to the orphanage after delivering the milk, he saw a figure so huge that it did not look like a human standing in front of the orphanage's gate at the intersection.
When Wright saw the huge figure, he instantly knew who that person was and hurried over.
I thought to myself, "It's Hagrid. I thought it would be Professor McGonagall or Professor Flitwick. There's no way Snape could be that. I'm not a pureblood."
Mrs. Kurt has already discussed the whole story with this half-blood giant who has messy beard and hair but is full of oppressiveness.
He also knew that Wright was going to Hogwarts to study magic. When he was about to invite Hagrid into the house, Wright had already run to the door.
Mrs. Cote saw Wright coming and waved to him.
"Hello! I'm Wright Rags." Wright came to Hagrid.
He said this while looking at the half-chubby face not covered by the beard and the small, bright black eyes.
Hagrid laughed and said, "Hey, hello! My name is Hagrid, I'm the gatekeeper and gamekeeper of Hogwarts. This is Harry, your future classmate."
It was only then that Wright noticed the person blocked by Hagrid's huge figure.
His thin body was dressed in clothes that were obviously ill-fitting, he wore worn round glasses, and his long hair could not hide the lightning scar on his forehead.
"Hello, I'm Wright Rags. Just call me Wright." At the same time, he extended his right hand to the prophesied savior.
"Hello, I'm Harry Potter" also timidly extended his right hand.
At this moment, the stone tablet in my mind began to shake, and a message came.
"Completed the mileage 'The Prophesied Savior', mileage point increased by 1." Wright, who received the information, shook hands with Harry without changing his expression.
Mrs. Cotter saw that everyone knew each other and invited everyone in.
Hagrid refused again and again, saying in a muffled voice, "We don't have enough time. We were delayed a little by looking for Harry, and we still have to go buy all the new student supplies."
After saying that, he touched Harry's head with his big hand.
Mrs. Cote asked a little worriedly, "I wonder how much it will cost to buy these things! We are in a bit of a difficult situation."
Hagrid smiled innocently and said dully, "Students like Wright are sponsored by the Ministry of Magic, but they have to be repaid after graduation. Don't worry about it now."
"That's great!" Mrs. Cotter breathed a sigh of relief.
"Then we'll go first." Hagrid took Harry and Wright to the nearest bus stop.
Mrs. Kurt also watched Wright and his group leave.
Hagrid took Harry and Wright on a bus across the Thames, and then took the subway across half of London. After getting out of the subway, they turned left and right in various alleys, weaving back and forth.
The Wrights were almost dizzy, and Hagrid, who was leading the way, slowed down when he saw this.
He muttered to himself, "If I had Floo powder and a portkey I wouldn't have to run around so I could get there directly. The Muggle way of getting around is really troublesome."
"What are Muggles?" Harry asked a little tiredly.
"People who can't do magic, like your uncle and aunt and Mrs. Kurt," Hagrid explained.
"So, we and everyone else who hasn't gone to school yet or is already studying in school are all wizards? What if I go to Hogwarts and find out you made the mistake?"
Harry asked, looking worried but also breathless from exhaustion.
"Don't worry, they've opened the school so nothing will go wrong. Even if something goes wrong, it's none of our business."
Wright replied in a slightly anxious tone. This amount of exercise is not too much, and the physical strength has been trained while working!
The series of questions confused Hagrid, who was not good at speaking.
After Wright's interruption, Hagrid had time to react and reorganized his words:
"We are wizards, not magicians, and Hogwarts is the best magic school in the world, it can't go wrong."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hagrid walked out of the alley. After walking out, he stopped and pointed to a bar across the street and said, "That's our destination."
Light and Harry looked towards the bar across the street.
A dusty and grimy sign read 'The Leaky Cauldron' and hung on an old house.
This bar is sandwiched between a bookstore and a record store, but people entering and leaving these two stores act as if they didn't see the bar, and even unconsciously stay away from it.
Hagrid took Light and Harry across the street and pushed the door into the bar!
After seeing the people Hagrid brought, the originally noisy bar gradually became quiet.
An old woman who looked like a witch came over and asked tremblingly, "Which one is Harry Potter?"
Harry shrank back uncomfortably.
Hagrid tapped Harry on the shoulder and said, "This is it."
Suddenly someone cheered, and the quiet bar instantly became noisy again. But now they were cheering Harry's name, as if they had seen an idol.
The old woman pulled Harry to her side and said happily: "Harry Potter, I have finally waited for you to return."
Harry was stunned by this scene and looked at Hagrid and Wright blankly.
Wright smiled without saying anything, watching the scenes in the movie appear before his eyes with interest, as if witnessing a legend.
Seeing that more and more people were surrounding Harry, Hagrid squeezed into the crowd and shouted:
"We have something else to do today, so we have to leave first." As he said this, he led Harry through the crowd.
Harry, still frightened, asked with fear: "Wright, do you know what's going on? Why are they only staring at me?"
Wright said mysteriously, "It's hard to explain right now, but you'll know when the time comes."
Hagrid led the two to the bar, and a middle-aged man greeted Hagrid with a smile.
"Welcome to the Leaky Cauldron. I'm the boss here. Just call me Tom."
Wright and Harry also politely introduced themselves to the boss.
The boss asked Hagrid, "Would you like anything?"
Hagrid waved his hand and said, "Next time! I have something to do now." Then he was about to take Wright and Harry to the back door.
Suddenly, the stone tablet shook, and Wright received information from the stone tablet.
"Complete the mileage 'The Dark Lord's Gaze'" Mileage point plus 1.
