A certain Hogwarts rune professor

Chapter 738 Extra Story·Dursley
"Welcome to the noon news," a host wearing rimmed glasses appeared on the TV screen. "A month ago, I was thinking that the Quidditch World Cup would be in the next century, but in the blink of an eye, it will be here."

"A lot of things have happened during this period. First of all, dignitaries from various countries have appeared on the island. Our reporters are obviously not enough."

"The Queen of England lives in the British Palace on the island, but more politicians and celebrities choose to experience the Magic Hotel. Prince Charles and Camilla stay in a low-key ice and snow town that is completely opposite to the current environment; it is worth mentioning that the former Princess Dai Anna lives in the botanical garden on the other side of the island, she has spared no effort to promote magic planting all these years, and has a close personal relationship with Keridi Bubaji, who was invited to the moon;”

"The piano poet François Crutoy has just finished his recital. In an interview, he revealed that he will not perform any performances for the next month. 'A gluttonous feast is just around the corner.'" he said. Troye has an indissoluble bond with magic, and since his hand healed, he has produced many masterpieces, and there is no doubt that magic is his muse."

"The Ancient Runes Association released a new book, expanding the original rules of ancient runes to 22;"

"There were fears that heavy rain was coming. Our weather team was out three days ago and turned the storm to an angle. Eventually it will pass us by;"

"The Selma Lake Monster from Norway suffered from acclimatization. Magizoologists Luna Lovegood and Rolf Scamander found that the creature was depressed because of the lack of freshwater on the island. The Seawater Purification Department refused The freshwater pool was given up. Two days later, the spokesperson said that the problem had been properly resolved, 'We kept it in the bathtub, and the new problem is that it is a little afraid of strangers, especially creatures with flat beaks and black fur.'”

"...the red-haired dwarves from Brazil clashed with the Irish leprechauns, and then the American Ilvermorny jungle goblins came out wielding hatchets, only thankfully their bows were confiscated because they were said to be poisonous; apparently the island The agent manager on the Internet is focusing on the birthday party of more than 800 million tourists and his own young daughter. Someone proposed that the house elf of the future world company supervise the restless guys. This may be a good idea, but it may lead to more disasters sexual consequences."

"When it was daylight today, a small boat approached the floating island, and a burly man on board knocked out more than half of the Fijian mascot Dakuwaja (some kind that can change between sharks and humanoid forms) that were stocked in the surrounding waters. shape-shifting creature), his roar attracted the attention of patrolling officers on the island, the former claimed to be the professor of the Protection of Magical Beasts at Hogwarts and the guard of the Forbidden Forest, accompanied by an elegant and extraordinary woman; they It was supposed to arrive a week ago, but got lost on the way, and it was related to the sudden rainstorm..."

After a while of chatter, the host raised his head: "Let's switch our attention to the tourists on the island, Tus, can you hear me?"

The camera cuts to an exterior scene, and a middle-aged man appears on the screen. His bald forehead seems to be waxed, shining in the sun, giving people the impression of being energetic and eloquent.

"Hello, Reed."

"The place where I am now is the memorial hall on the floating island. The museum records the well-documented magic history from all over the world. It is one of the most worth visiting attractions. The internal collection of books and various video materials is very rich. It takes two or three hours to browse through it roughly, and there is a built-in free restaurant, but I think no one will walk in because of a free lunch; it is worth mentioning that Mr. Haipu and his colleagues and students occupy the first floor alone Exhibition hall—this gentleman, can I interview you?"

Dudley stared blankly at the reporter, and dropped the commemorative hat in his hand-"Pick me up off the ground! Boy." The hat shouted-he is not as fat now as he was when he was a child, and he practiced boxing in middle school Although the experience did not make him an outstanding boxer or rugby player, it at least curbed the soaring weight.

"...Listen, I won't waste my money... What's the matter, Dudley?" Fernon and Petunia came over, and Fernon's mouth was oily, and he was wiping it with a tissue, when He froze in place when he saw reporters and cameras.

"Are you together? A family?" The reporter's interested eyes moved away from the hats that kept clamoring on the ground. "Great, there is no doubt that you are all interested in magic—"

"What?" Fernon roared with wide-eyed eyes, "Oh, cough cough cough cough, yes..." He said vaguely, he was holding Petunia with one hand and Dudley with the other, and was about to leave, but the reporter had already handed over the microphone to him. To Dudley, who was closest to him, "Can you answer a few questions? It won't take too much time."

Dudley faltered and glanced wildly, but the reporter said, "Excellent."

"Where are you from?"

Dudley froze for a few seconds, then mumbled, "England."

"Britain?" The reporter's eyes lit up, "I interviewed Andy Murray last week. Last year, he became the first Englishman to win 14 championships in the Open era. But his state was a bit sluggish in the first half of this year, and he changed his coach. And invited an ex-St. Mungo's therapist to join his team, himself and his girlfriend on the floating island - not paying attention? Not interested in tennis? What a pity, that report is my favorite, including His relationship with a controversial journalist."

He smacked his lips, a little disappointed by the Dursleys' reaction, but quickly recovered, "Okay, okay, let's continue... Since you are from England, you must have gone to the third floor of the Memorial Hall? That's the main event. "

"Um……"

"Who are you interested in? The two archmages, or Ms. McGonagall, the current headmaster who promotes the student exchange program of eleven magic schools? The mysterious and controversial Defense Against the Dark Arts professor and divination professor, or another pair of combinations —Professor of Spells and Protection of Magical Creatures of incredible size? Giant Warden, long-sleeved Potions Professor, Returned Auror Herbology Professor—”

Dudley racked his brains for something to say, but couldn't get it right.

"Of course, I thought you might be more interested in another group of people who have so profoundly affected our lives - the Weasley Brothers, the most popular wizarding merchants who have spread the idea of ​​mischief to more than 70 countries; Mr. and Mrs. Diggory, who have shown their talents in the medical and public welfare fields; Mr. Malfoy, the president of the first wizard and Muggle United Hospital; Krivat, who is in charge of the business of thousands of branches of the "Future World" company; Vera..."

"Harry Potter," said Dudley.

"Harry Potter!" the reporter yelled dramatically, evidently keeping the name on purpose for this very moment. "Yes, the name has been mentioned repeatedly lately, and the public has been watching him with scrutiny. He is also quite legendary, and played an important role in the downfall of some Dark Lord. It seems to be called Voldemort? Excuse me, I am sorry The name of the foreigner is not very familiar... It is said that even his name could not be mentioned in the most terrifying period, and he was called by a mysterious person... Killed many people, including Potter's parents—”

Petunia had a weird expression on her face, and Fenon held her hand tightly.

"But these are all in the "Harry Potter" movie, haha, I remember that some movie clips are used in the memorial hall, because some people are not willing to publish the photos." The reporter said with some emotion: "I don't know Mr. Potter How's the relationship with his Muggle kin? You know, his aunt and uncle are generally considered hopeless, but there's something to be expected from that cousin who seems to be obese..."

The face of the "hopeless" Fernon turned purple, Aunt Petunia's lips were tightly pressed together, and a trace of panic flashed in her eyes.

"I think - well, it's okay," Dudley finally got a chance to speak, and it was the first time he had answered fluently since he had been interviewed. "Their kids would play together and they'd sit and drink beers and watch everything - boxing, football, Quidditch... and discussing Chocolate Frog Cards, Felix Hemp and Geller T Grindelwald's hardest to collect, Ron Weasley's just over the top..." He sputtered, and a muttering Fenon froze, and Petunia looked as shocked as he was.

The reporter froze for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's a good idea." He faced the camera and said jokingly, "Dear film creators, if you plan to create a sequel in response to fans' requests, you might as well take out paper and notes. "Speaking, he handed the microphone to Feinon again, "Sir, I see that you have been wanting to talk, and it seems that you can't wait—"

Fernon suddenly clenched his purple fists, and the reporter took a step back flinching.

"Can't wait? That's right!" he roared, drooling, "I'm so happy! I like magic, and our whole family likes magic! Satisfied..."

The shot shifts from the memorial to the studio. "Thank you Tus for the live report," the host said calmly, adjusting his glasses, "The following will broadcast a short video of celebrities who enthusiastically sent blessings to the opening ceremony of the World Cup."

In front of the TV, Ron asked Harry:

"You guys actually drink beers and watch games? And discuss chocolate frog cards?"

Harry shrugged.

"Well," Ron muttered, "I've got two Grindelwalds, but don't expect me to trade them for him."

The two walked into the conference room, Harry took a deep breath and looked at the hundreds of familiar faces in the conference room.He seemed to be back in school, but what he was facing now was a more complicated situation.

Fred and George winked at each other, took off their black domed magic hats, "Salute to the distinguished island owner." The two wore brown suits with yellow stripes and a colorful polka-dot tie. It looks quite joyful.

"Oh, don't make trouble," said Percy.But the episode just now made Harry's tense heart calm down quickly.His eyes moved slowly, Sirius, Ms. Burns, Lupine, Tonks, Hagrid, Professor McGonagall, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, Ginny, especially Dobby...they all looked at him with tender trust Looking at Harry, a warm current surged in Harry's heart.

He reached out and knocked on the wall behind him, and the crowd gasped in amazement. A huge map integrated with the wall slowly emerged, presenting the outline of the floating island and its surrounding [-] square kilometers in front of everyone. The dense ink on the wall Imprints come and go.

"The thing is..." Harry began.

"Why didn't you see Hermione?" Percy's wife Penelope asked Luna quietly, and Luna said happily, "The Grangers are here."

Penello was a little taken aback.

"It turns out," Fred said in a low voice, "No matter how great a wizard is, he can't escape the pressure brought by his father-in-law and his mother-in-law. I really hope that I'm on the scene and take on the work of enlivening the atmosphere... I personally think that Professor Haipu is not good at telling jokes .”

"Felix has a good sense of humor," Luna said fairly.
