Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 604 The Magical Muggle Journey

   Today, the Anderson family got up very early.

  After having breakfast and doing the housework, the whole family sat on the sofa and watched TV, looking at the wall clock on the wall from time to time.

   "It's nine o'clock, she's late." Nia looked at the wall clock on the wall, and turned to ask Albert who was sitting next to her, "Isn't the wizard's time different from ours?"

   Both Herb and Daisy were a little worried that Isobel would not be able to arrive on time. They needed to take the flight to Paris, France at 11:30.

  Actually, Albert can follow other wizards and go to France in other ways, and after the wedding, he can join his family in France or Italy.

It's just that their family is on vacation, and it is easier to solve possible problems through formal channels, and Albert thinks that this vacation will be an interesting experience for Isobel. The most important thing is, He didn't want Isobel to exclude the Muggle world, although the possibility of that was very low.

  Just after nine o'clock, the doorbell of Anderson's house rang, and everyone stood up as if shocked by electricity. In the end, it was Albert who went to the entrance to open the door first.

  Isobel stood outside the door pulling his luggage, his muscles tensed slightly, and he seemed a little nervous.

   "Come in, everyone is waiting for you!"

   Albert stepped forward to give Isobel a hug, took the girl's suitcase, and dragged her into the house.

  Daisy liked the smart and beautiful Isobel very much, and was very satisfied with her son's eyes. She quickly took Isobel's hand and sat on the sofa to chat.

  Nia observed Isobel secretly, and even she had to admit that this woman is very beautiful and has a strange temperament.

  After meeting Isobel's eyes, Nia forced a smile, which looked very forced.

  Herb was phoning someone for a scheduled taxi to pick him up.

   About ten minutes later, the Anderson family loaded their luggage into the taxi and headed to London Airport together.

   "Mom likes you very much." Albert said to the girl who leaned her head on his shoulder.

   "She seems to want us to settle in the Muggle world." Isobel whispered. Daisy had mentioned it to her just now.

   "They don't have a good impression of that place. They feel that it is too backward. They are probably worried that we will suffer in the future." Albert explained with a smile.

   "Didn't you mention it to them?"

   "No." Albert shook his head, "It's not necessary."

  They were lucky, there was no traffic jam on the way, and they arrived at London Airport soon.

   "Are we going to France on an 'airplane'?"

  Isobel was curious and incredible about how the Muggles made the plane fly in the sky.

  Wizards travel internationally usually by train, on broomsticks, using cross-country Floo networks, or Portkeys.

  If there are many people, flying carpets will also be used.

   However, the flying carpet was banned by the Ministry of Magic not long ago.

  They were waiting in the waiting room of the airport for the plane to take off, and Isobel's documents were fine, which made Herb, who was checking in, heaved a sigh of relief.

"Give!"

  Nia came back with a few drinks, and after sharing them with everyone, she glanced at Isobel's cup and asked absently, "When did you meet each other?"

   "Not long after Albert entered Hogwarts College, we were in the same club." Isobel recalled.

   "I remember you were the one who led me the way."

   Albert took a sip. This cup of coffee was very bitter, and it was particularly unpalatable.

  He raised his head and looked at Nia, who was wondering whether to drink or not, and a helpless wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

   Herb and Daisy often drink bitter coffee, so bitter coffee is completely fine for them. Although Albert doesn't like drinking too bitter coffee, he can barely accept it.

  Isobel had never drank such a bitter drink, so he reluctantly drank it after slightly frowning.

  In the end, Nia was the only one left struggling alone. Fortunately, she didn't struggle for too long, and the plane took off quickly.

   "No wonder you think Muggle studies are useless." After the plane took off, Isobel turned his head and said to Albert who was sitting beside him.

   It's astounding that a Muggle could send something like this up into the sky without using magic.

  Sometimes, the girl even worries that the plane will suddenly fall in the middle of the flight.

  Although Isobel also knows that the possibility of such a thing is not high, but it is like walking on the glass plank road, there will be an inexplicable anxiety and restlessness.

   "Don't worry, the plane is very safe, and it's not that easy to have an accident." Albert grabbed Isobel's hand and said softly: "I was also very nervous when I was flying for the first time."

   "Liar!" Nia next to Albert underestimated in a low voice.

   "You can look at the scenery outside the window. It is very difficult to see such a scene in the magic world." Albert motioned the girl to look at the scenery outside.

  No matter how good the performance of the flying broomstick is, it is impossible to rise to the current height.

   More than two hours later, the plane landed smoothly at the Paris airport, and they took a taxi to the hotel they booked.

   "I suddenly understand why your family doesn't want you to stay in the wizarding world." Lying on the soft mattress, Isobel lazily turned over and said to Albert who closed the door behind his back.

  The Muggle world is very different from what I expected.

   There is no magic, and Muggles don’t need magic. They have invented many things that are as magical as magic, and they can also make Muggles live well.

  In Albert's words, the magic world is a little behind, and it is almost out of date.

"Your thinking is a bit one-sided. What you see and feel now is because we spent a lot of pounds to enjoy higher treatment." Albert smiled and turned on the TV, which was showing French news , "However, the life of a Muggle is indeed better than that of a wizard, as long as you have money."

   "Is this what you call a TV?"

  Isobel looked up and down the big box in front of him, and some images were playing on the screen, "I heard Professor Bubaji mention this thing."

   "You can write this vacation into a book." Albert turned off the TV and suggested with a smile, "How about calling it "A Magical Muggle Journey"?"

   "That's a good proposal." Isobel nodded and said, "However, I wonder if such a book can really be sold?"

"Is it important to sell it or not?" Albert asked back, "Also, you can also try to send manuscripts to Muggle publishing houses. As long as you don't reveal the identity of the wizard, you can look at the Muggle world from another perspective." , is actually very interesting, I believe some people will like it.”

   The two didn't chat for long when someone knocked on the door. Nia appeared outside the door with a gloomy face, obviously very dissatisfied with Herb and Daisy for sharing Albert and Isobel in the same room.
