On September 1st, King's Cross Station.
"...Can't we really go there with you, honey?"
"It's a pity, Mom, no one without magic can pass through this wall."
"Perhaps, you can try...I mean, use your stick to cast a spell on us?"
"That's a wand, Dad. It won't work, I don't know how to do such a spell, and minors aren't allowed to use magic outside of school... I'll be expelled."
In the open space between platforms nine and ten, a seemingly ordinary family was saying goodbye.
The daughter was pushing a cart that was as tall as one person, and took the trouble to explain some common sense to her parents. She had brown curly hair and spoke very calmly.
Finally, the middle-aged couple seemed to understand and gave up the idea of sending their daughter to the car.
It was time for them to say goodbye - the mother kissed her daughter gently on the forehead, the father hugged her, the daughter raised her sleeves to wipe her eyes, and then said goodbye to her parents happily.
She slowly slid the cart to the partition wall between platforms nine and ten, and a guard stopped her - he whispered:
"Not now. There are too many people passing by just now, which can easily arouse suspicion."
So the girl waited there quietly for a while, until the guard waved his hand to indicate that he could pass——
The girl waved, said her final goodbyes to her parents, then ran all the way and rushed directly into the partition wall.
"Remember to write back."
At the last moment when her figure disappeared, her mother shouted in the distance.
…
The train rumbled across the vast wilderness, like a long red dragon.
Hermione Granger held a few books and walked alone in the carriage, her eyes constantly drifting to the carriages on both sides.
She was looking for her friends, Harry and Ron, a thin little boy with glasses, and a red-haired goose.
However, she didn't find it and searched almost all the carriages - during which she met George and Fred, the Weasley twins and Ron's two brothers.
But obviously they don't care much about their idiot brother. George and Fred have more important things to do - they are trying a new prank spell with Lee Jordan, Ginny (the youngest daughter of the Weasley family) ) followed them to watch the fun.
Hermione couldn't help but feel a little worried. She knew that her friends:
Harry had just been warned by the Ministry of Magic this summer for using magic in his Muggle family, and Ron drove a speeder to pick him up - obviously restless fellows.
Not to mention that last year, they broke about a hundred school rules in order to protect the Philosopher's Stone.
Hermione couldn't help but smile when she thought of this - she didn't seem to be a peaceful person herself.
She shook her head and silently prayed in her heart that the two of them would not make another big news.
Hermione found a car that looked empty in the last carriage. There was only one person sitting in it - a young and handsome man. He was leaning against the window and quietly reading a book - "The Philosophy of Magic" 》.
Hermione put the book on her lap and took out paper and quill from her bag - since she couldn't find her friends, she planned to go over her homework in the car.
So, Hermione sat quietly doing her homework, and the young man quietly read a book. The two of them sat in the same carriage, but they didn't even exchange a word.
Until a toad sneaked into the box and jumped suddenly——
"ah!"
Hermione was startled, the toad - it was about to knock over her inkwell.
But this terrible scene did not happen. As the toad fell, its figure continued to shrink and twist, and in a very short moment, it turned into a beautiful button.
A little boy with a round face put his head into the compartment, and a button flew in front of him. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch it——
When the boy opened his palm again, a toad was already intact in his palm.
"oh!"
The boy and Hermione - both of them were shocked by this beautiful magic. They did it without using a wand or chanting a spell. The young man in the cubicle just raised a finger that was placed on the spine of the book. all of these.
"Mr. Longbottom, I think you should take care of your pet. It almost ruined Miss Granger's hard work."
The young man looked away from the book and said with a smile.
Neville's face suddenly turned red. He didn't even bother to say hello to Hermione and hurriedly ran away from the compartment.
"How do you know our two names..." Hermione couldn't help but ask after Neville ran away.
The young man glanced at her and said with a smile: "This is not a difficult matter... I also know that the third paragraph of your paper was written incorrectly. The brewing time of swelling potion is not always 60 minutes. This is related to the material of the crucible. Silver ones generally last the longest.”
"Ah? Really?" Hermione lowered her head. She opened the book and checked it carefully, and then she discovered her mistake.
Hermione raised her head with a look of admiration on her face: "You are so awesome, sir. I haven't asked you your name yet... are you a seventh grader?"
"My name is Aaron, Aaron Custer." Aaron shook his head and said with a smile, "I am your new Potions Professor."
After Mr. Weasley left that day, Aaron continued to be busy. He refined the four magic potions for the school opening demonstration, and modified the lesson plan prepared by Runas. After everything was ready, he continued to carry out his research project.
First, he perfected the new throwing bottle he developed, and made some slight adjustments based on the characteristics of the different potions poured into it - mainly for three potions: blinding water, thunder brew, and mood potion.
Among them, thunder brew is a special magic potion that can be used for attacks. After being poured into a throwing bottle, it can explode into a thunder cloud the moment it is thrown out, and the thunder and lightning in it can be used to effectively kill the enemy.
After some small adjustments by Aaron, it can also be detonated simply by magic, and is even more powerful than a C4 bomb.
The Emotion Potion is a by-product of Aaron's research on the love elixir. It has the effect of an anesthetic and is very powerful.
Just ingesting a very small amount can make a person paralyzed and unable to move - of course, the disadvantage is that it has to be ingested, so it will not work like blinding water when it explodes into smoke.
Aaron cast a traceless stretching spell on the inner pocket of his clothes and stuffed a large number of throwing bottles filled with magic potions and gadgets he usually made for self-defense inside. A batch of supplies was stored in the space inside the Golden Snitch.
In addition, he also brought a large number of healing potions with him.
Even so, Aaron still felt unsafe - his years of traveling and visiting various dark wizards and dark creatures made Aaron very cautious, but that was all he could do for the time being. As the center of magic in Britain, Hogwarts can't be more dangerous than a vampire's castle, right?
No way, right?
After making all preparations for the start of school, Aaron devoted all his energy to his new topic-the research of special potions.
