Hogwarts: I am the Wizard of Goblins

Chapter 5



Rewind the clock to ...... more than half an hour ago

When Professor McGonagall first arrived at the Swinton home, she was warmly received by Wilson and Julie.

Wilson and Julie brought out the cakes and cookies they had prepared in advance, and rushed a pot of fresh milk tea, beckoned Professor McGonagall to sit down, and then enthusiastically asked about the wizarding world and Hogwarts School from time to time.

This sudden operation really overwhelmed the usually serious Professor McGonagall, who had already gone through the various situations that might happen in her mind several times before entering the door, but she did not expect to encounter something almost impossible.

Because in the past, when she went to such Muggle-born student families, she was more questioned and driven away, and she had never been as warm as the Swinton family.

However, although she was a little uncomfortable at first, Professor McGonagall was also impressed by Wilson and Julie's attitudes, and after answering the questions they asked patiently, she also learned from the conversation that Shane was comfortable using magic.

This had to surprise Professor McGonagall.

Because with previous experience, young wizards who have not been formally studied and do not have a wand can cast magic often have very serious consequences.

Like in the original book, Harry made his Aunt Maggie into a balloon, but if Harry's mood swings were a little bigger at that time, and with the idea of "bursting her", Aunt Maggie would probably blow up into pieces of meat.

Therefore, in her responsibility as the Deputy Head of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Professor McGonagall wanted Sean to demonstrate her magic once, so that she could make a basic assessment of the young wizard who had not yet entered the school.

Shaun himself wanted to see how Professor McGonagall would react to his magic, so he agreed.

And then the next thing happened.

Of course, Professor McGonagall didn't know that releasing flames was only a basic skill for Shane, and there was no need to use the magic circle at all.

Is it harder to set a fire than to eat mashed potatoes?

So the end result was that for the first time, the different magic systems and concepts of the two worlds collided, and something beyond what they had previously known made both Shane and Professor McGonagall confused.

"Mr. Dolea, to tell you the truth, you are the most shocking student I have ever seen, at least in the history of Hogwarts, no one has been able to perform such consistent and powerful magic at your age. "

Professor McGonagall was shocked and shocked, but she managed to maintain her composure and demeanor as a professor.

"However, let's stop this matter for now, and we'll discuss your affairs slowly after you enter the school. "

"And now, Mr. Dolea, I must remind you that we are running out of time, I have two other students' families to visit besides you, and it is time for you to prepare Hogwarts school supplies. Professor McGonagall straightened up, "So, Mr. and Mrs. Swinton, do you want to go along?"

"Yes!".

Before Mrs. Julie could answer, the siblings Arya and Rick, who had been sitting next to them and did not dare to say anything, immediately agreed in unison, they could not contain their curiosity for a long time, and their desire to learn about the unknown of the wizarding world quickly made them fall into madness.

"Alright then, let's go together!" Wilson patted his thigh, in fact, he really wanted to see what this magical world was like.

So, after a brief packing of things, Shane and the Swinton family of four set off with Professor McGonagall.

Of course, a few people had arrived by the subway, and the Leaky Cauldron was in London, so there was no need to change shapes, not to mention that Professor McGonagall didn't have the confidence to bring so many people.

A little over an hour later, at Charling Crossroads, Shane and Professor McGonagall had just gotten off the subway.

"In front is the Leaky Cauldron, founded by Daisy Doddrich in the early sixteenth century, and behind the bar is Diagon Alley, where all of Mr. Dolea's school supplies can be bought. Professor McGonagall said, gesturing ahead.

"Bar, where is there a bar?" Rick looked around, puzzled.

After all, people without magic can't see the Leaky Cauldron.

"The Leaky Cauldron uses a powerful hidden charm that Muggles can't see. Professor McGonagall explained, then led the group towards the bar.

It wasn't until Professor McGonagall touched the greasy doorknob of the Leaky Cauldron that the four Swintons really got a real glimpse of what the bar really was.

Except, of course, Shane, who had just seen the unusually abrupt dilapidated bar on this bustling street from a long distance, which was too conspicuous, and the fluctuations of its faint magic power had to attract his attention.

As soon as I entered the bar, a musty smell hit my nose instantly.

Compared to the old door behind it, the interior of the bar is very dirty and shabby.

It was very dark in the Leaky Cauldron, and the only source of light was the sunlight from a small window overhead.

Because of the lack of ventilation, the gray damp walls were already covered with mold.

On the walls are portraits of unknown figures, some of them doing repetitive movements, others chatting through frames.

At the bottom of the portrait are rows of long tables and wooden stools clinging to the wall, and in the center of the bar are several large old wooden tables, white, where several wizards are sitting chatting and drinking.

And on the bar counter in the innermost part of the bar, a bartender with a Mediterranean hairstyle is wiping the table, he is the current owner of the Leaky Cauldron - Tom.

"Hello, Tom. Professor McGonagall stepped forward and said hello.

"Oh, hello, Professor McGonagall, long time no see!" Tom replied with a smile when he looked up and saw that it was an acquaintance, "Is there anything I need help with?"

"Thank you, Tom, for taking the road to Diagon Alley. "

"Ah~~ Of course it's no problem, yes, time flies so fast, is it time for new Hogwarts students to enter again?" Tom turned his head to look at Shane who was standing next to him, and there was a hint of memory in his eyes.

Obviously, he guessed that Sean was a freshman this year.

In fact, there is no need to guess, Arya and Rick next to them look obviously overage, and their expressions of looking around also indicate that they are here for the first time.

"Little wizard of the Muggle family, what is your name?" asked Tom leaning over.

"Shane, Shane Dolea. Shane replied.

"Dorea, a rare surname...... Tom stood up, "then, Mr. Dolea, please come with me." Then he turned and opened a hidden wooden door behind the bar.

Then the group followed Tom into the door, and saw a very narrow patio with some barrels and garbage in it.

"Remember, Mr. Dolea, count three pieces on the top of the trash can, then two more horizontally, and strike them in turn with your wand. Tom faced a brick wall, took out a wand and tapped it a few times.

Then, I saw that the bricks on the wall began to shake inexplicably, and quickly moved and contracted to both sides.

Soon, an arch appeared in front of me.

At this moment, Hedwig's variations suddenly sounded silently in Shane's head.

"Welcome to Diagon Alley!" said Tom excitedly.
