[Comprehensive English and American] The years I opened a grocery store in Queens

"Daytime news reports that Tony Stark, the president of Stark Industries, will go to the US military base in Afghanistan to test the latest research and development results. This experiment will definitely open a new chapter for Stark Industries."

Upon hearing the news about Tony Stark, Isabella immediately turned off the TV.

Pepper had already apologized to Isabella before. She said that Tony Stark had such a temper, and told Isabella not to be angry. Isabella agreed verbally. After all, Pepper was a big customer. I couldn't make it difficult for her, but I still held my breath in my heart.

Isabella recalled the tea residue prophecy that day, and she had a vague premonition: this trip to Afghanistan would be a turning point in Tony Stark's life.

Jill's sudden call interrupted Isabella's contemplation. The call was full of joy. Isabella looked up and saw a brown owl stopped by the window with a letter in its mouth. .

The letter was received by Isabella, and it instantly turned into a mouth, repeating the contents of the letter to Isabella in a relaxed and cheerful tone:

dear miss xavier

We are pleased to inform you that in order to celebrate the 1015th anniversary of Hogwarts and the 10th anniversary of the victory over Voldemort, we invite you to return to Hogwarts to join in the celebration.

Principal: Minerva McGonagall

Isabella was undoubtedly very excited to receive this invitation letter. On the one hand, she really missed her classmates and professors at Hogwarts, and on the other hand, she could meet the legendary seniors again. up.

Isabella met the legendary senior Harry, Senior Hermione, Senior Ron, and Senior Luna on the occasion of the school celebration five years ago, which was also the fifth anniversary of defeating Voldemort... Their courage and wisdom made the They won the just war and won the praise of the entire wizarding world.

At that time, she was still a low-grade student, neither of her parents was a wizard, and she entered Hogwarts to study as a Muggle, and some annoying classmates always called her Mudblood behind her back, which made Isabella Sad for a long time.

It was at that school celebration that Principal McGonagall brought her to Senior Hermione, who was once the smartest student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and more importantly, she was also of Muggle origin.

Senior Hermione told her seriously: "Magic has nothing to do with birth."

Isabella has always kept this sentence in mind, and later she became the smartest student in Hogwarts. When the student who kept calling her "Mudblood" mocked her, she could reply calmly: "Your grades Not as good as me."

This trick works very well. When a wizard from a pure-blood family is not as good at magic as a Muggle-born wizard, blood is actually a burden.

Isabella did not leave immediately after receiving the invitation letter. Although she was in a strong mood to return to Hogwarts, as a treacherous, greedy and selfish businessman, she would not let go of any business opportunity.

Just as the Muggle world is interested in magical things, the wizarding world is also curious about things in the Muggle world. Isabella decided to collect the most interesting and popular things in New York and take them to Hogwarts, and then get them from the wizards. in exchange for something else.

Therefore, Isabella, who appeared again at King's Cross Station, was carrying a large bag. She was the only passenger with the most luggage nearby, and passers-by inevitably cast curious gazes on this girl.

Isabella: You don't understand the hard work of doing business.

Isabella put all the boxes on the trolley and walked towards the ticket gate between the ninth platform and the tenth platform. The ticket gate became an archway, and thus entered platform nine and three-quarters.

Isabella still remembers that when she saw platform [-] and three quarters for the first time, her heart was completely broken. There was no platform [-] and three quarters in the whole King's Cross station. Fortunately, Professor X who sent her here invaded The consciousness of a family who also sent their children to school figured out the way to enter platform nine and three quarters.

When Isabella pushed the trolley into platform nine and three-quarters and disappeared from there, Professor X sighed softly from behind: Magic.

Although taking the train from platform nine and three-quarters to enter Hogwarts is usually used by underage wizards, but Isabella still chose this way this time, and felt that this way was quite ceremonial.

Isabella felt the festive atmosphere of Hogwarts as soon as she got out of the car. From a distance, she could see the ancient castle surrounded by bright candles, showing a cheerful atmosphere.

Isabella was already a graduate who came very late, but she was lucky to step on the tail. Professor McGonagall has not officially announced the start of the celebration day, so she can go to the lounge to catch up with the alumni of the same college.

Isabella is a student of Ravenclaw, and the Sorting Hat says that only students with bright minds will enter Ravenclaw.

Isabella, who was considered unintelligent by Professor X since she was a child, was very excited when she heard the news. She told the news to Professor X who contacted her through the brain wave enhancement machine when she was sleeping at night.

But I didn't expect Professor X's reply to be: "It seems that your school has a little problem with the definition of smart."

Isabella: ...

Ravenclaw's lounge is on the west side of the castle. As usual, you can enter by answering the questions posed by the eagle-shaped bronze door knocker. Many students of the same class are already there, and they gathered around Isabella when they saw Isabella.

Although there are chairs in the common room, Ravenclaw students are naturally unconventional, and they sit on the blue carpet with stars printed on them to catch up.

"What's in those boxes of yours?"

"Good stuff." Isabella opened the box mysteriously, and began to sell items as if offering treasures.

Isabella brought many kinds of items, including cosmetics and perfumes that women love to use, small dolls she caught in the crane machine in New York, snacks, and the hottest music CDs and movie videos today.

Graduates of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry generally work in the Ministry of Magic or in the wizarding world. Few of them have been in the Muggle world like Isabella, so they are very impressed by what Isabella brings. interest.

Ravenclaw's classmates bought all the little dolls early in the morning. In exchange, they told Isabella some potion making methods that were not in the textbook or gave her some magical plant seeds.

Snacks were distributed to the Hogwarts juniors. They had nothing to exchange, and Isabella asked them to sing a song together.

The biggest seller of Isabella's transaction is Senior Ron.

In the auditorium, when Principal McGonagall read out the welcome speech, Isabella and Hermione's family stood together, and Ron, who learned that Isabella opened a grocery store, had endless conversations with her. He also specially asked the reporter of the "Daily Prophet" to take a photo of the two of them, and told him that if the photo was published, it would be called "Meeting of the two bosses of Hogwarts."

Isabella corrected him: "No, a meeting called 'two giants of business' would be more appropriate."

Ron was especially interested in those music CDs. He picked out one of the CDs, tapped it with his wand, and a woman in a student uniform came out. She sang in a sweet and seductive voice: "hitmebabyonemoretime."

Ron was very happy to exchange a lot of things with Isabella, and he was willing to give her almost all the special items of West's Magic Wheezing Workshop.

Hermione shook her head helplessly, watching the two people mess around, but at the end she said to Isabella: "Professor Dumbledore, the former headmaster of the school, gave me a handbag that can hold unlimited things. It’s not convenient to walk around with so many boxes, so I’ll give it to you.”

Isabella hurriedly hugged Hermione, what kind of fairy senior sister is this, what kind of beautiful sisterhood is this!

The biggest celebration of this school celebration is the Hogwarts alumni version of "Quidditch". The most famous "Quidditch" players in the past will participate in this game.

Isabella used to be a well-known player in her class, so many people expected her to play. If this was a normal game, Isabella would certainly be full of confidence, but this time her opponent is the rumored one. Senior Harry.

Senior Harry used to be the youngest Seeker at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and he caught the Golden Snitch when he was a freshman. Facing such a strong opponent, Isabella felt a little apprehensive.

The game was scheduled for the next morning, and everyone slept in the original dormitory the night before.

"Although I have just graduated, I have already begun to miss the dormitory life at Hogwarts." Isabella's roommate, Ziwei, was lying idly on the bed.

Ziwei is also considered a major client of Isabella, she promised to give Isabella two beautiful opals as a reward, Ziwei bought a bottle of hair dye from Isabella and dyed her hair pink, Also took a box of Bruno Mars CDs.

It was late at night, and all the roommates had already fallen asleep, but Isabella couldn't sleep because of tossing and turning, an inexplicable driving force pulled her out of bed and wandered around Hogwarts.

The light in Professor McGonagall's office was still on, and Isabella, who was no longer a student, was not bound by school rules. She wanted to chat with Professor McGonagall, but when she approached, she found that Mr. Neville, who taught herbalism, was also there.

Although eavesdropping was not Isabella's intention, the words of Professor McGonagall and Mr. Neville clearly fell into Isabella's ears. Her senses seemed to be naturally more sensitive.

"The child named Delphi is ten years old this year, and she has already shown some dangerous traits..."

"Children's minds and minds can still be cultivated at a young age, and they may not necessarily become dangerous people like Voldemort."

"I saw Isabella today. She seems to be living well in the Muggle world. When her father suggested to me to let her live in the Muggle world, I was still worried..."

"Her father made her forget everything before the age of seven, and we have been paying attention to her growth. Isabella should consider herself an ordinary Muggle now."

"That's fine, let the past be the past."
