Hogwarts, where the stars shine

Chapter 3, Mesa Black



Mesa is a time traveler. In his previous life, he accidentally crossed paths with the top four and the bottom eight. Then he came to Britain in the 20s and became a baby with no one to love him.

He had also wondered whether he had come to a familiar world, such as the Avengers or the Justice League.Especially when he possesses extraordinary abilities, this suspicion becomes even more serious.

However, there is not a shred of news about superheroes in newspapers or on television. The new American hometown on the other side of the Atlantic is not destroyed at every turn, and there is no superpower like the rich Mr. Wayne.

And because he was in Britain, Mesa even deliberately read "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Chronicles of Narnia" for a while.But Britain is not Middle-earth, and the orphanage wardrobe does not lead to Narnia.

It wasn't until today that Mesa finally found the correct answer. It turned out that the world he was in was "Harry Potter"!

Coincidentally, the author is still a British writer, but JRR Tolkien was replaced by JK Rowling, and The Lord of the Rings became Harry Potter.

Knowing that this world is "Harry Potter", problems arise. Mesa has never seen this popular work around the world.He had only heard the discussions among the enthusiastic fans, and all he knew was a few names in the book.

The savior Harry Potter, the combat power ceiling Dumbledore, the villain Voldemort, and the phrase "Hogwarts, never graduate."Beyond that, nothing is known about Mesa.

Snape, who is that?Can he turn into a tabby cat or a big dog?

This is a magnificent and mysterious magical world, full of opportunities, challenges, and unknown dangers, such as the unknown villain Voldemort.

Although his own ability is no longer a special existence and has become the magic power in the wizard's body, Mesa's burning heart will not be extinguished or cooled down. He is confident that he will become the most unique one.

Think back then, Chen Daozai could win 20 million with 3700 yuan, why couldn't Mesa Black?

"According to the content of the letter, I was admitted to this magic school called 'Hogwarts', but I have never applied to your school." Mesa asked, "I am an orphan, so I should not There is a possibility that a relative will sign up for me."

"You have been a student of Hogwarts since the day you were born. There is no need to register."

What's the meaning?What does it mean to be a student at Hogwarts since I was born?Snape's answer made Mesa even more confused, and there were more questions in his mind.

"My parents too..."

Before Mesa could finish speaking, Snape said, "I don't know, and I don't know who your parents are. Next question."

"Okay, second question. Where should I buy the things on the list?" Mesa did not hesitate and continued to ask, "Although I have never been to London, I know that these things are not easily available. .”

Snape answered, still concisely."Diagon Alley, where you can buy everything on your list," he said.

After saying that, with a brisk sound of metal colliding, Snape took out something else from his pocket, which was a small leather bag.He continued: "The school has a fund to support students who need help. This is yours."

As if to illustrate Mesa's stupidity, Snape added the last sentence.

Mesa was also secretly glad in his heart. Fortunately, he didn't ask about his tuition fees, food, clothing, housing and transportation, otherwise he would be treated as a fool again.

Thinking about it in Mesa, since Hogwarts admitted a street kid like him, it would naturally be well prepared. After all, a kid like him who was making a living on the streets couldn't afford the high tuition fees.

Taking the leather bag with both hands, Mesa thanked him, and then asked: "Then where is this Diagon Alley? How should I get there?"

"I can take you there and buy all the items you need."

Snape's expression was not vivid, but from his tone, Mesa could tell how reluctant he was.Since the other party is not willing to accompany him, why bother to stick up and force him to do something difficult for him?

"Thanks, but I think I can do the shopping by myself," Mesa said. "I've been running around by myself."

Snape raised his eyebrows. He was surprised by Mesa's knowledge. He said: "Diagon Alley can be entered through the Leaky Cauldron, and the Leaky Cauldron is located on Charing Cross Street."

"Any more questions?" Snape asked again, with a completely business-like attitude, like a question-and-answer machine programmed in advance.

Although he didn't know why the other party was so impatient, there were some things that Mesa thought it would be better to ask clearly to save himself from being confused.Mesa bit the bullet and continued to ask: "The letter said: The semester is scheduled to start on September [-]st. But, how do I get to school?"

"King's Cross Station, take the Hogwarts Express at platform nine and three-quarters." Snape replied. Although his attitude was a bit perfunctory, he did not say half and half.

He continued: "Platform nine and three-quarters is the third pillar between platform nine and platform ten, just go through it."

After the explanation, Snape shut his mouth again, his attitude was quite cold, and he refused to say a word.

Come to think of it, the two of them are not reunited after a long absence. Today is just the first time they meet, so there is not so much gossip to talk about.Furthermore, Snape also told Mesa everything he should have told him, without any hidden secrets.

"Last question," Mesa pointed to the upstairs, "How will this couple deal with it?"

Mesa didn't know what spell Snape recited for them, let alone what effect the magic would have, so he was a little worried.

"The Forgetting Curse," Snape said, "They will not remember you, let alone me. For them, today is just an ordinary day, nothing happened."

Mesa nodded, relieved that he wouldn't have to worry about police officers coming to the door if he walked out of the house.

At this moment, Snape stood up from the sofa and strode out of the living room.

The black robes flowed behind him like the outstretched wings of a giant bat.

Immediately afterwards, Mesa also stood up and walked out quickly, and the two of them left No. 7 South Mu Street one after another.

Towards evening, when the evening primroses were blooming, Mesa stood on the street and moved her feet uneasily, appearing a little hesitant.

Firstly, the ground was hot from the sun, and the soles of his shoes were too thin; secondly, he wanted to say goodbye to Snape, after all, he would be his future teacher.

My first meeting with the Hogwarts staff was the scene where I was caught by the owner of the house. I can't think of a worse first impression than this.

"Uh...Professor Snape...see you at school!" Mesa said with a sigh, trying to save some impression points before leaving.

Snape gave Mesa a cold look and said in his characteristic whispering voice: "Hogwarts has strict rules and theft will not be tolerated in the school for any reason. Also, The wizarding world also has laws, and the Ministry of Magic will punish offenders in more severe ways, including life imprisonment."

Is this a stern warning or a kind reminder?

"You have to remember: once you enter the magical world, you must obey the laws of the magical world."

Snape said finally, and before Mesa could respond, he disappeared from the spot with a soft "pop" sound.

Thinking of Snape's reminder (warning) in his mind, Mesa took one last look at No. 7 South Acre Street and dragged his suitcase towards the end of the street.

Tonight, Mesa will make its home under the bridge again.
