At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the train finally entered the bustling human gathering place.
Gradually, several towns were passed by the train. When the sun was farther west, the train slowly slid into the platform.
At this time, platform nine and three-quarters of the King's Station was already full of people picking up the train.
Before the train entered the station, the little wizards had already changed their clothes, picked up their suitcases, and socialized with their friends. It was a mess.
Ted and the other four boys were rushed to the corridor to change out of wizard robes, while the two girls were changing in the carriage.
Then the train stopped and the doors opened.
The little wizards filed out with their respective salutes, and the entire platform was full in an instant.
It was even fuller than when school started, and there were people everywhere.
The six of them, Ted, stayed close together for fear of getting separated.
At this time, a slightly immature little girl shouted from a distance: "Neville, Mom, I saw Neville!" The voice was so excited that it could be heard from a distance.
Ted: I think I heard this somewhere?
Neville on the side quickly shrank his neck, fearing that he would be discovered as he was half a head taller than his peers.
And Ron's face was even more gloomy: "Oh God, Ginny, I am your biological brother! Didn't you see me?"
He complained to the little girl who was squeezing over. Behind the little girl was the red-haired couple.
The man is tall, has a smile on his face, and looks very approachable. The hair on his forehead is sparse, and he looks like an authentic British gentleman.
The woman was short and fat, with a kind smile on her face.
"Oh, Ron, you've grown so much!" said Mr. Weasley.
Molly on the side said excitedly: "Peggy wrote to us, saying that you got good grades in all subjects and added fifty points to Gryffindor! Is it true?!" Molly grabbed Ron's shoulders. , almost lifting him up.
Ron is always a little bit reluctant to let go when facing his relatives, not at all like he was when he was bragging in front of dozens or hundreds of people in the school auditorium.
"It's only 50 points. Ted and Hermione added more than a hundred points to Ravenclaw... Oh, by the way, Mom and Dad, let me introduce to you. You all know this Harry and Neville. This is Ted ..." He pointed at Ted.
Ted took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with Arthur Weasley, "Hello Mr. Weasley, I'm Ted."
Then he shook Molly's hand with both hands and said, "Aunt Molly, thank you for your sweater. It fits well and is very warm. Thank you very much!"
It was the sweaters and coats given by Aunt Molly and Professor McGonagall that gave Ted new clothes to wear in the New Year. He had to thank them no matter what.
"Oh, poor. As long as you like it, if you have time, please come to the Burrow as a guest and try my handiwork."
"must!"
"This is Hermione, the top student in Ravenclaw." Ron pointed at Hermione.
Hermione greeted the Weasleys, who nodded in response.
Compared to Hermione, Ron didn't say as many nice things to his parents as Ted and Jerry did.
Therefore, the Weasleys just treat Hermione as an ordinary friend of their son.
"This is Jerry." Ron hugged Jerry. Jerry shrank his neck timidly.
Molly took the initiative to give him a hug, "Good boy, come to our home with Ted when you have time!"
Jerry was so moved. To be honest, no one invited him to their home.
As he spoke, the little girl, Ginny Weasley, kept staring at Neville. Neville looked at it and wanted to turn himself into a bug and crawl into the cracks in the ground.
Neville is most afraid of this little girl from the Weasley family. In his words: He went to the Weasley family before going to school, and the youngest girl in his family looked like he was going to eat me!
Speaking of which, Ginny is the seventh child of the Weasley family.
According to the setting of this world, seven is a magical number, so Ginny's magical talent is very powerful.
This is the seventh son!
Well, it’s all Qi’s will!
While talking here, Sirius, who was dressed handsomely and had a mustache, walked over with his beautiful and gentle wife on his arm.
"Sirius! Olivia!" Harley rushed over with excitement and hugged the two of them.
Not far away, an old lady with a serious face and an expression that looked like Professor McGonagall, who was facing a poor Transfiguration student, also walked over.
She is of medium height, dressed solemnly, and wears an eagle-shaped women's hat - who made this thing?
However, Ted was strangely aware of magic fluctuations at the same time.
This thing is actually a magic item. It seems that it is not just as strange as it looks.
Behind the old lady, there was a short, fat man in his forties.
"Grandma, grandma! Uncle..." Neville was a little nauseous.
Neville's grandmother, Mrs. Longbottom nodded, then looked at the other children.
"Won't you introduce your friends to me?"
"Oh!" Neville nodded repeatedly, "This is Ted..."
It’s the same operation just now.
The old lady also expressed her gratitude to Ted for his help to Neville and invited him to come and sit at home when he was free.
Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Mr. and Mrs. Sirius and Mrs. Longbottom are all old members of the Order of the Phoenix.
Nowadays, the new generation are classmates and friends, so naturally they want to keep in touch with their past relationships.
Soon the Weasleys and the twins and Peggy also arrived. After the three parties said goodbye, they left in their own ways.
Sirius and Harry walked directly to the internal fireplace network of the platform. The same goes for the three old ladies Longbottom.
Jerry wants to use the Ministry of Magic's special channel to return to their village where demihumans gather.
The Weasley family left the platform and took a car home - a car that Mr. Weasley had modified.
When he said this, he looked at Ted and Hermione with pride and expectation, eager to try.
Hermione didn't know what was going on, but Ted did.
"Ah, Mr. Weasley, you also have research on cars? That's amazing!" Ted's compliment was quite right, and Mr. Weasley immediately started talking.
He was so curious that Muggles could create such magical things without using magic. Discussions continued along the way.
Ted also relied on his years of experience in writing online articles to search for information and making comments online, so he responded calmly.
Mr. Weasley felt that today was too much fun. He had never had such a fun chat in the past few years!
Passing through the red brick pillar, the group arrived at Platform 9 of King's Station in the Muggle world.
Some Muggle parents were already waiting here, including Hermione's parents.
"Dad! Mom!" Hermione also rushed towards her parents. Then there is another introduction...
The communication between Mr. and Mrs. Granger and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley was pretty good.
The two ladies discussed cooking and knitting techniques, and the two gentlemen discussed the differences in dental care between Muggle wizards and the principles of automobiles.
If nothing else, the two of them can still discuss the weather - today's weather is really bad, right?
"Ted, would you like to come to my house as a guest?" Hermione looked at Ted.
Ted patted her arm: "Thanks, Hermione. I'll go to the Leaky Cauldron to set up my things first, and then I'll ask Anzu to write you a letter, okay?"
"You know, we still have a lot to learn, and time is tight. Maybe, then I will invite you to go shopping in Diagon Alley!"
Ted politely declined Hermione's request. He really didn't like to be a guest in other people's homes, which was somewhat embarrassing. Let's wait until there is a chance in the future.
Agreeing to have a drink with Mr. Weasley next time, Mr. Granger started the car and drove away.
Hermione waved to everyone in the car.
"Then let's get in the car too," said Mr. Weasley.
Since they were passing by the Leaky Cauldron, they were able to give Ted a ride.
An ordinary hatchback car, with seven people in it, still can't see much. Ted looked around and saw that no Muggles were paying attention, and got into the car.
The traceless extension spell has been released in this car, and the space is comparable to that of a Wuling van.
Not to mention eight people, a dozen or so is no problem~
When they arrived at the Leaky Cauldron, Ted got out of the car and waved goodbye to the Weasley family with a salute in hand.
Ron leaned out of the car window and shouted, "Remember to write to me!"
George and Fred were also shouting, "Don't forget our plan, our plan!"
"What are you planning again? Don't pull Ted into the water!" Aunt Molly changed her face on the spot when she heard that the twins had another plan.
Mr. Weasley waved his hand and started the car. Seeing the car turn the corner, Ted turned around and looked at the familiar narrow front.
"Ah, Old Tom, I'm back again~"
OK, the first volume is finished!
