#15 - Vivian Bulstrode
Time passed day by day, and soon it was time for school. Anduin was very satisfied with his gains during this time.
After packing his luggage and saying goodbye to Tom, the owner of the Leaky Cauldron, Anduin set off for King's Cross Station. After spending more than a month with Anduin, Tom had developed a deep affection for him, and gave Anduin a small bucket of butterbeer as a gift. Anduin also left behind several recipes, all of which were simple and easy to learn, like fried chicken. Tom's eyes became even kinder when he looked at Anduin.
Anduin arrived at King's Cross Station early, all alone with his luggage. He placed the luggage on a trolley one by one, and after checking that nothing was missing, he took out the ticket from his admission letter. Professor McGonagall had explained the precautions for taking the train to him before saying goodbye.
Pushing his luggage, he came to the wall between Platform 9 and Platform 10. Anduin noticed that there were many Aurors maintaining order around. "It should be to prevent Muggles from accidentally entering and causing interference."
Anduin looked around, and after confirming that no one was paying attention to him, he pushed the trolley towards the wall.

On the other side of the wall, a scarlet vintage steam engine was parked next to the platform. There were not many passengers yet, the train was scheduled to depart at 11 o'clock, and it was only a little after 9 o'clock now, so Anduin had arrived very early.
Pushing his luggage along the train, he casually found a carriage. With a wave of his small hand, all the luggage floated beside him, following him into the carriage.
Finding an empty compartment, Anduin opened the door and pointed his finger, and the luggage flew onto the luggage rack by itself.
"Shunfeng, wake up," Anduin called out to his pet owl, only to find that his pet owl 'Shunfeng' was still standing there dozing with its eyes narrowed. Anduin shook his head, placed the owl cage on the table, and closed the door.
Anduin prepared to put on his wizard robes while there weren't many people around, then sat in a corner of the carriage, took out a copy of 'A Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration' and began to read it. In fact, he had read this book many times, and he had also tried Transfiguration several times.
In fact, he had the deepest grasp of Charms and Defense Against the Dark Arts, and had learned many spells, while Transfiguration, which required personal guidance from a teacher, was still in its early stages.
After about an hour, the number of pedestrians on the platform outside the window gradually increased, and at this moment, the compartment door was knocked on.
"Is anyone sitting here?" A girl asked, pointing to the seat opposite Anduin.
This girl looked young, with long brown hair and a pair of light green eyes that revealed some ignorance.
"No, please sit down," Anduin said with a smile.
"I'm Anduin Wilson, let me help you." Anduin said kindly, watching the girl struggling to drag her suitcase, trying to lift it onto the luggage rack.
Then Anduin pointed his finger, and the girl's suitcase floated up and was placed smoothly on the luggage rack.
"Cool, I'm Vivian Bulstrode. Are you an older student? You can cast spells without a wand. I'm a new student preparing to enroll this year." Vivian looked at Anduin's move and subconsciously thought she had met a senior student.
This was normal, Anduin was already stronger than many of his peers, and his height was already around 1.5 meters, and his body was also very thick.
"No, I'm also a new student, I'm just more proficient in this spell." Anduin secretly told a lie. In the past few days, his Impediment Jinx had also entered the ranks of nonverbal and wandless casting, but he didn't want to make himself too special.
"You're really amazing. Are you from a pure-blood family? I don't have any impression of the Wilson surname." Vivian tilted her head, looking like she was thinking seriously, but after a while, she still didn't gain anything. "My father and grandfather are both Squibs, and my mother is a Muggle. My grandfather was once expelled from the Bulstrode family. You don't know, my grandfather was overjoyed when he received the Hogwarts acceptance letter, because my relationship, our family was re-incorporated into the Bulstrode family."
"I'm an orphan, and I have nothing to do with any pure-blood families. I'm a wizard from a Muggle family." Anduin replied faintly, "Your family expelled your grandfather, don't you resent them? Why are you so happy?"
"You don't look like a Muggle wizard at all." Vivian looked at Anduin's so proficient Levitation Charm and couldn't imagine that Anduin was actually from a Muggle family.
"My grandfather hates his Squib identity very much, and he also said that I am his pride. Isn't it a good thing to return to the family? The Bulstrode family is one of the 28 pure-blood families in the magical world."
Anduin couldn't understand the brain circuits of Vivian's family. Bloodlines were even more nonsense in his opinion. If he had been expelled from his former family, he wouldn't give them any good looks. Obviously, this girl named Vivian was also very proud of this identity, and told him, a stranger, so much as soon as she got on the train.
Just then, there was a commotion on the platform outside the window, and many people gathered together. From a distance, it seemed that someone was arguing there.
"Do you know what happened over there, Vivian?"
"Let me see." Vivian opened the window and stuck her head out of the window to observe from a distance.
"One side seems to be from the Travers family, and the other side seems to be from the McKinnon family. I've seen them at family banquets." Vivian retracted her head, which was a little messy from the wind, and closed the window again.
"I heard that someone from the Travers family is a Death Eater, and an Auror from the McKinnon family was seriously injured by that Death Eater from the Travers family. The McKinnon family believes that the people from the Travers family are all loyal to Vol... I mean the Dark Lord, but the people from the Travers family all denied it, thinking it was the individual behavior of that Death Eater, and also said that they had mistaken the person, and that no one from the Travers family was a Death Eater or anything."
