Hogwarts: The Book of Magic

Chapter 20 Platform Nine and Three Quarters
The four entered the station and found the corresponding platform according to the address on the ticket.

"So what's next? How do we get to platform nine and three-quarters?" Mr. Granger scratched his head and asked suspiciously.

"Nine and three-quarters is between nine and ten, so I guess the entrance should be a pillar between platforms nine and ten." Hermione thought, exerting her superhuman talent.

Lean tapped in the void with his finger, and found a magic wave on a wall.

"Come with me, I think I've found the entrance." Lian waved to the Grangers, and then walked forward first.

The Grangers looked at each other and followed. Hermione stomped her feet, a little annoyed.

"Next time I'll find out before you." Hermione muttered.

"Hermione, come here quickly, what are you still doing there?" Mrs Granger called.

Hermione heard Mrs. Granger's words and looked up. The Grangers and Lean had already reached a pillar between platforms nine and ten.

Hermione knew that this was the entrance to Platform Nine and Three-quarters, and ran over quickly, regardless of her competitive nature.

"Is this the entrance to the platform? Isn't there anything unusual?" Hermione trotted to the wall, patted the solid stone brick wall, and asked curiously.

"This wall is equipped with detection magic, and you can only enter it by running all the way."

After finishing speaking, Rion paused, then looked at Hermione and continued, "Also, the entry wall is not on this side, but on the other side."

"Hmph!" Hermione kicked Rin and walked to the other side.

Hermione didn't use any force at all, and Rian didn't feel any pain at all, so he followed Hermione to the other side.

Seeing this scene, Mrs. Granger nodded in satisfaction.

Mr. Granger originally wanted to say something, but after being glared at by Mrs. Granger, he shut up.

Hermione came to the wall on the other side and reached out to touch it. It was as hard as an ordinary wall.

"You have to trot to get in." Rin reminded standing behind Hermione.

"Why don't you run in?" Hermione glanced at Rin, somewhat disbelieving what he said.

Rin shrugged, then ran into the wall under the surprised eyes of the Grangers and Hermione.

"He... he went into the wall!" Although Mrs. Granger knew that this was the entrance of the station, she still couldn't help but say in surprise as she watched a person disappear under her eyes just like that.

"Mom, let's go in too." Hermione stretched out her little hand and said.

The three of them ran into the platform hand in hand.

Soon, Lean and the Granger family reunited on platform nine and three-quarters.

The four lamented the mystery and charm of magic.

But the four soon caught the attention of the station Aurors, because they acted too much like Muggles who had strayed into the station.

"Unlucky, how could there be Muggles coming in today." The Auror in the long trench coat muttered, then drew out his wand and walked towards the four of them.

"I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen, you have come to a world that doesn't belong to you, now please forget them and live a life that belongs to you." The Auror raised his wand while speaking, trying to release the forgetting spell.

"Sorry, sir, we are newly enrolled wizards, and this is our admission notice." Hermione nervously took out her admission notice.

This was the first time in the little girl's life that someone pointed a wand at her, and the other party was a policeman from the magic world.

The Auror took the letter paper from Hermione's hand, checked it carefully, then returned the admission notice to Hermione in a daze, and said, "So, where are your luggage? You will be taught without books." kicked them out of the classroom."

"The pocket that cast the Untraceable Stretch Curse, sir." Lean said.

The Auror looked at the pocket made of dragon skin on Lean's waist, nodded knowingly, and said, "Sorry, this was my mistake, I wish you a pleasant journey."

After speaking, he turned back to the shade where he was sitting just now.

"It really scared me to death. I thought that gentleman was going to cast a spell on us." Mrs. Granger touched her chest and said in a somewhat unsteady mood.

"It should be the Forgetting Charm. This kind of spell can delete or even modify people's memory." Lean said.

"This..." Mr. Granger was speechless.

He didn't think that there was such inhuman magic in the wizarding world, yes, in Mr. Granger's view, this kind of magic was inhuman.

"Isn't anyone in the wizarding world using this kind of magic to do evil? Why didn't they ban it!" Mr. Granger asked curiously.

"Who knows." Lean looked around and replied nonchalantly.

A group of four people just talked casually while visiting this small magic world train station on the platform.

During the visit, the group met many people who were doing the same thing.

After meeting each other, they looked at each other and smiled, and everyone knew that the other party was from the Muggle world.

"Okay, I think it's time for you to find a good seat. I have seen many children have already boarded the train." Mrs. Granger was obviously anxious about this matter, and they hadn't seen it on the train yet.

The train is divided into small compartments one by one, with the corridor on the left and the compartment on the right.Each compartment can seat six people, with luggage overhead and under the seats.

Finding a cubicle in the middle, Lean and the Granger family sat in.

"It seems to be no different from ordinary trains, and I see that the front of this train is still steaming. Isn't this really an antique from the last century?"

Mr. Granger did not sit down, but felt around.

Mrs. Granger was telling Hermione something, and Hermione seemed to know that she was about to be separated from her parents, and looked a little depressed.

Lean looked out the window, and only at this time did he feel a little lonely.

Suddenly, Lean felt someone pat him on the shoulder, and turned his head. It turned out to be Mr. Granger.

Mr. Granger beckoned, motioning for Ryan to follow him out.

Lean was a little puzzled, but he followed Mr. Granger and walked out.

"Rin, I know you have great magic power, and I also know that you might be interested in Hermione."

Once outside, Mr. Granger hit Rin with a straight serve.

"Even...you may have killed someone."

In an instant, Lean wanted to pull out his wand and cast a Forgetting Charm on Mr. Granger to modify his memory.

But Mr. Granger didn't notice, he continued: "I don't care about these things, but I want to ask you one thing."

Mr. Granger looked up, staring seriously into Ryan's eyes.

Ryan nodded, he probably guessed what it was.

"Rin, please help Hermione more when you're at Hogwarts. It's the first time she left home to go to a boarding school, let alone a magic school. It's my request."

Mr. Granger's words were full of sincerity, which moved Rin a little.

His father in his previous life was a scumbag, and his parents in this life have never seen him.

Ryan nodded heavily.

After Mr. Granger saw that Lien agreed, he smiled with satisfaction, patted Lian on the shoulder and signaled to go back to the cubicle.

"Dad, what did you and Lean say when you went out, so mysterious." Seeing Mr. Granger and Lean enter the carriage, Hermione asked curiously.

The little girl got a little impatient with Mrs. Granger's urging, and now she is full of longing for the magic world.

"Nothing, just to discuss this train, don't you think so, Lean?" Mr. Granger said with a smile, and glanced at Lean.

"Ah...um...yes." Li En was a little absent-minded, and he remembered the scene of his father killing his mother in front of his eyes in his last life.

This is a nightmare that always appears in Lean's mind at night.

Hearing Rion's perfunctory words, Hermione curled her lips, but didn't care. She just thought that Rion was alone, but she was accompanied by her parents, and she felt a little depressed.

At about 10:30, the four stepped out of the train again.

Lian took out the luggage and put it in the carriage to prevent it from being snatched during the time of departure.

"Hermione, I made some snacks and put them in your box. Remember to eat them at noon. There are also orange juice and apple juice, which are all your favorites. When you arrive at school, remember to study hard. If someone bullies you, go find them. Teachers..." Mrs. Granger was a little bit reluctant, and her eyes were a little red.

Mr. Granger kept patting Mrs. Granger's shoulder, trying to comfort her.

Hermione was also a little depressed at this time, and rushed forward to give Mrs. Granger a big hug.

Mr. Granger winked at Lean, who nodded.

This is an agreement between them.

Soon, Mr. and Mrs. Granger were back through the wall.

Rin heard a sob coming from beside him, turned his head, and Hermione was quietly wiping away tears.

"What are you looking at! I didn't cry, I just got sand in my eyes!" Hermione raised her brows and shouted sharply when she saw Rien looking over.

Then he stomped his feet, turned and ran into the train.

Rian smiled, and followed Hermione into the train.

When they came to the carriage, Pais had flown over by himself and was standing on Rian's luggage.

Seeing Lean come in, Pais jumped from the luggage onto the seat, and then put his head in Lean's hand, wanting him to touch it.

Lean raised his hand, and Pais put his head into Lean's hand.

Hermione's eyes were a little hot, and she reached out to touch Pais, but was pecked hard by Pais.

"Pais, how could you do this!" Rin scolded Pais, then picked him up and sent him to Hermione.

Ignoring Pais's contemptuous gaze, Lean took out a book from his pocket and read it.

Hermione also took out a book from her suitcase and started to read, the carriage fell into silence for a while.
