Overturning Hogwarts

Chapter 6 How many Muggle wizards are there?

Since his rebirth, Zhang Rui had also expected that he would have some kind of golden finger, or that he would become a once-in-a-millennium Taoist wizard.

But soon reality hit him hard in the face - he was hungry even if he had no food, and it hurt even if he was beaten.

My old Taoist master who has been passed down from my ancestors for more than ten generations does not know any magic at all, otherwise he would not have almost starved to death.

He didn't know if there were any hidden Taoist masters in the famous mountains and rivers. Even if there were, they might be as isolated from the world as the British magical world, and he had no clue.

But the so-called "special powers" of qigong masters that he had access to were all lies in the eyes of someone like him. He even "created" a "quantum master" with his own hands.

His growth experience in this life, apart from practicing some Taoist health-preserving boxing techniques with old Taoist priests since childhood, and later catching up with nutrition, he has a strong body, strong arms, and has never lost a fight with his peers. There have been no magic riots or the like. of supernatural phenomena.

When the old Taoist priest first gave him the small iron plate, he had studied it over and over again and tried various methods.

I have tried every conceivable method, including burning in fire and soaking in water, dripping blood to identify the master, using a magnifying glass to look for miniature sculptures, breathing and practicing Qi on the top of the mountain on a full moon night.

Still nothing unusual was found, so he gradually gave up on his dream of cultivating immortality.

I just wore a small iron plate that had not rusted for seven or eight years. Why did it suddenly have a large rust stain?

Could it be that the wizard's spell happened to hit the iron sign? The iron plate is a self-defense weapon, can it automatically protect its owner?

But he was obviously knocked down by the wizard's spell all at once, without any resistance at all.

Just scratched by the aftermath of the curse and that's it? That’s too useless!

Sure enough, I thought too much.

Zhang Rui smiled self-deprecatingly, turned off the light and went to sleep.

……

"Rui Shao, this photo was taken after you walked into the alley, but you can't see the face clearly."

The next morning, Li Cheng reported to Zhang Ruihui with the selected photos.

Zhang Rui took the photo and saw only a man in a blue suit with a hunched body appearing at the entrance of the alley where he was unconscious yesterday.

Taking the magnifying glass from the table, Zhang Rui carefully observed the man in the photo.

The man had brown hair and his face could not be seen clearly. A palm-long thin black wooden stick was exposed on his right hand, which should be his wand.

The body does not seem to be hunched naturally due to aging, the legs are bent, and the left hand is holding the wall, seeming to support the body...

He seemed to be seriously injured.

Sure enough, a blood stain could be vaguely seen on the man's collar, and there was also a dark stain on the blue sleeve of his right hand.

what is this?

Zhang Rui pointed the magnifying glass at the man's wrinkled suit. There was a vague mark of a white unicorn, presumably representing an organization or family.

Probably this wizard was injured for some unknown reason and wrote a letter to his companions asking for help. Then Zhang Rui appeared by accident. The other party was seriously injured and thought he was an enemy. It was a coma spell...

Zhang Rui felt that his guess was quite reasonable, but at the same time he was a little scared. Fortunately, it was just a stun spell. If the other party was more excited and just gave him an Avatar, his life would be gone.

Never come into contact with adult wizards who don't know their true identity until it's safe.

Zhang Rui reminded himself secretly.

……

London, a detached house.

"Oh, dear, why are you injured? Who dares to attack you?" A panicked female voice said.

"No, ahem, yes, it's a child, ahem, I didn't expect that I almost followed in the footsteps of the Dark Lord." The weak male voice laughed at himself.

"A child hurt you like this? Didn't you go to contact...contact that person?"

"Stop talking, something happened. Ahem, I will continue to look for him later. Ahem, I must, I must get it done, ahem."

"Oh my god, you're too hurt. I'm taking you to the hospital."

"Ahem, no, I can't go to the hospital. Those people are staring at me. Ahem, I can't let them laugh at me."

"You will die, what else is more important than life."

"There are many, the honor of the family, my father's last wish, and you, ahem, are all more important than my life..."

"What now?"

"Go get my bottle of magic potion... Remember, don't let anyone know about my current situation..."

……

It's still the same street where Diagon Alley is.

Zhang Rui was not on the street. Instead, he appeared at the high-rise window facing the street, with a telescope hanging and a walkie-talkie in his hand.

"Now each of you has a telescope and a walkie-talkie. All the five goals mentioned before have been abandoned. The current goal is to find boys and girls aged ten to fifteen. When they appear, there will be at least two or three adults around them. Escort.”

"After discovering the target, continue to observe, such as someone waving a small wooden stick in his hand, someone carrying an owl, mouse, toad and other pets, or someone holding a lot of books, and a mess of unusual things. If you find that these situations are Report immediately."

After three days of failure, Zhang Rui recalled and reflected again and discovered the loopholes in the previous plan.

Not all first-year wizards have to go to Diagon Alley from the entrance!

Only young wizards from Muggle families need someone to lead them from this street to Diagon Alley.

Young wizards in wizarding families are usually brought by their parents as direct "floo fans".

For example, Ron and Malfoy would never pass by here at all. These two goals are a complete waste of time and energy.

Dumbledore didn't even pick up Harry Potter, the "son of prophecy", and it was even less likely to pick up other students.

Snape is the headmaster of Slytherin, and Slytherin is the cradle of pure-blood wizards. Mixed-blood wizards will be excluded. It cannot be said that there are not many pure-blood wizards, and there should not be many.

Although the new students have not yet been sorted into houses and do not know where they belong, Snape is not necessarily willing to deal with young wizards from Muggle families.

Moreover, Snape's image is really not suitable for the job of guiding young Muggle wizards.

Just imagine, a middle-aged man dressed in black robes, with a cold face and no smile at all, and with greasy hair suddenly appeared in an ordinary person's home and said that he would take the children of this family to a place he had never heard of.

Which parent would dare to give their child to him?

Therefore, it is possible that there are other people with a good image and affinity who are responsible for recruiting new students.

If Hermione had already been here, she would naturally not appear again.

There is only one deputy principal, McGonagall, and Dumbledore is basically the boss. McGonagall is responsible for most of the daily work. It is hard to say whether she will have time to do the work of guiding young Muggle wizards, and how many of them she will be assigned to.

Therefore, I only put my hope in Mag, and success depends purely on luck.

But now, Zhang Rui has abandoned Mag and expanded his target to all young wizards from Muggle families in the lower grades (11 to 15 years old), which is a much larger number.

Every year before school starts, little wizards need to buy textbooks and other tools.

Even if they are not new students, it is impossible for a young wizard from a Muggle family to "floo" directly from home to Diagon Alley, so they will definitely come here.

Although these are all "strangers" to him, Zhang Rui is confident that he can extract useful information from them as long as he can identify them as little wizards through some details.

Zhang Rui vaguely remembered that young wizards could not use magic casually in the outside world, which was much safer than those adult wizards.
