The early autumn morning is filled with light mist, and the smell of sunshine melts into the wind, lifting people's hair.
The little wizards on platform nine and three-quarters struggled to push the carts amidst the waves of their parents, hitting the wall with their eyes closed.
Rutina was holding a big bag in one hand and mold in the other. Mold is a gray Maine Coon cat, very similar to the Maine Coon Snape she had in her previous life.
She arrived very early, and there was no one in the carriage. Lutina found a private room and sat down, then took out a book from the bag and started reading.
The bag has been cast by Sean with a traceless stretching spell, so it can hold it very well. Lutina stuffed a few pieces of hot pot base and some ingredients into it to avoid starving on the train.
"Woo! Woo——"
The train started. The golden rice fields outside the window flew by in an instant, and rivers and forests followed one after another.
"Is there anyone here?"
The sliding door of the box opened and two boys walked in.
Rutina shook her head.
"Introduce yourself, I am Ron Weasley. This is the savior - Harry Potter!"
Lutina guessed that Ron was a social cow.
"Lutina Ollivander."
Ron gave Harry a squeeze.
"Actually, we know each other," Harry said, and Ron almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
"You...you know each other?"
Ron blinked hard, as if he could use it to replace the functioning of his brain.
"certainly."
Rutina smiled and raised her eyebrows at Harry next to Ron.
The two boys chatted with each other, while Rutina continued to chew on the book.
The book mainly talks about Eastern cultivation methods. There is a concept in the East called "spiritual power". Mental power is like a container that holds magic power. If mental power is strong, magic can improve faster.
Eastern practitioners don’t use magic wands. The strong ones among them can achieve the effect of landslides and ground cracks just by waving their hands, which is also inseparable from their mental power.
Mental power can be improved through meditation, and identifying the five elements of your physique can improve your mental power faster.
"...It's called Banban, and it's useless..."
When Lutina heard these words coming out of Ron's mouth, she immediately cheered up and stared at the fat gray mouse.
If she remembered correctly, this guy should be the Animagus form of Peter Pettigrew.
In her previous life, she had always had an unformed conjecture - what would be the result of mating Peter Pettigrew in the form of a mouse with a female mouse. Now it seems that she should be able to do an experiment.
Ron was completely unaware of Rutina's malicious thoughts and was still making gestures.
The train has left London, and outside the window are fields full of cattle and sheep.
At about twelve o'clock, a loud noise came from the corridor. A woman with a pleasant smile and dimples opened the box door and asked:
"Honey, do you want to buy anything in the car?"
"Seven chocolate frogs, three licorice wands, thanks."
Rutina paid a few silver coins to the saleswoman, and then threw a piece of hot pot base into the cauldron.
Ron was visibly frightened.
He slumped down in his seat, his fingers twitching.
After casting a few more blazing flames on the bottom of the crucible, Lutina cast a freezing spell on the pumpkin juice in the glass while sighing at the convenience of magic.
"Hmm... let's do another crushing spell."
Ron and Harry watched helplessly as the pumpkin juice in front of Rutina changed from liquid to solid to smoothie and finally split into three cups.
Rutina pushed two of the cups to Ron and Harry, and she put a few pieces of tripe in the boiling soup base.
Before Ron could react, Rutina had already put away the four pieces of corned beef sandwiches that he hated.
Then, a bowl of meat slices in soup with red oil appeared on the table in front of him.
The red-haired girl with ponytails in front of him said with a full smile:
"Ollivander's restaurant's signature Chinese food - hotpot."
Ron was dumbfounded by the stuff that was full of peppercorns, while Harry was worried that it was too spicy and ate it with a cauldron cake sandwiched between the hairy belly.
Rutina poured the remaining soup into the bowl and cleaned the crucible.
Suppose there is a thick pile of fragrant grease on your cauldron in the first Potions class after school starts. If you were a Gryffindor, you would definitely be cut into pieces by Snape, right?
Rutina thought so, picked up a chocolate frog and opened the package.
The picture showed a young black-haired witch smiling at her. Lutina felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
She read the words on the picture softly.
"Ulani Luo Xiweida, the Middle Ages..."
She turned the picture over again. Ulani was still on the picture and winked at her.
At this time, the fields passing by outside the car window seemed even more desolate, and a neat farmland had disappeared.
What follows is a forest, a meandering river and dark green hills.
Someone knocked on their box door again, it was a round-faced boy with tears in his eyes.
"I'm sorry," he said, "I just wanted to ask, have you seen my toad?"
Lutina narrowed her eyes slightly. She remembered this description in the original novel particularly vividly.
If nothing else goes wrong, the genius academic master Hermione Granger will open the box door when Ron shows off his talents, and Hermione's journey of adopting two great children will begin.
Neville is here to find the toad, which is probably his standard equipment.
Because of her mental power, Lutina has a different perception of any object than ordinary people. She clearly felt that something jumped over just now and pulled a strand of her hair.
Maybe this is Neville's toad?
The toads in the magical world can almost become spirits after absorbing the essence of the sun and moon. At least they can become invisible at will, which is something that lower magical creatures can do.
However, the reason why toads often become invisible is probably because they do not have enough trust in their owners.
Alas, it seems that Neville still needs to communicate more with his toad. Maybe one day the toad will be alone again.
Lutina raised her face with interest, ready to wait for a beautiful rescue of the toad.
Not two minutes after Neville left, the door of the box was pushed open again. A little girl came in, and next to her was Neville, who had just lost his toad.
Rutina's eyes lit up.
Ron cleared his throat under the attack of the brown-haired girl's eyes.
"Daisies, sweet cream, and sunshine, turning this silly fat mouse yellow."
He waved his wand, but Scabbers was still gray and sleeping soundly.
"Are you sure this is really a spell?" the little girl asked, "It doesn't look good, does it? I'm at home -"
The little girl said rapidly, and Lutina suddenly coughed twice and raised her wand.
She picked up the mold and said under the gaze of everyone in the box:
"Daisies, sweet cream and sunshine, turning this fat Maine Coon cat yellow."
The gray cat immediately turned yellow. Fungus looked at Rutina accusingly and gave her a paw.
Lutina slowly restored the mold to gray. She considered her words and said to Ron concisely:
"Watch your gray mouse."
Ron was about to ask a question, but was silenced by Hermione's words.
"—I've memorized all the textbooks, of course, I just hope this will work—my name is Hermione Granger, by the way, what are your names?"
"Ron Weasley," Ron muttered.
"Harry Potter."
"Rutina Ollivander." Rutina tilted her head, "If I remember correctly, you are here to take Neville to find toads, right?"
Lutina did not deny that Hermione's aura was very domineering.
"Yes." Hermione said quickly, "If there isn't one here, we'll leave first."
She was about to pull Neville away when Lutina spoke again.
"Who said there isn't one here?"
It's too late, it's fast. The moment Hermione turned her head, Fungus suddenly grabbed the invisible toad that had been squatting in the corner and hugged her tightly to Lutina.
Rutina scratched Fungus's chin.
"Reveal yourself urgently!"
She grabbed the ball that looked like air to others and said sharply.
