I weave my destiny in parallel time and space
Chapter 512 Joan of Arc’s Adjutant (page 12)
The person dispatched to Danelle's house was Minerva Hudson, who now holds the position of vice principal.
I had a chance encounter with Char in the past.
Around the time when Gayward escaped from prison, Char went to Hogwarts to meet Albus once. At that time, she was reporting to Albus about the new students.
But now she is over a hundred years old, and her long years have brought her a lot of experience in dealing with Muggle families.
She was standing in front of Daniel's house at the moment. Minerva was wearing a large magic robe and a big pointed hat on her head, which was very similar to the legendary witch.
However, she does not have a pointed nose. Although time has left many marks on her face, it is definitely not ugly.
On the contrary, her upright sitting posture and raised neck gave her a white swan-like noble temperament, like an old lady from an ancient aristocracy.
She raised her hand and knocked lightly on the door.
Soon, the door slowly opened. Daniel opened the door for Minerva. He raised his head and looked at Minerva curiously. Looking at her classic magic dress, he immediately understood Minerva. The origin of.
He turned to look at his father.
"Dad, people from that school are here!"
Minerva looked at the house through the crack in the door.
This is a house at the foot of an alpine pasture, some distance from the town, but it is located on a high ground and overlooks the entire town.
The house is built of wood mixed with mud, and it is also a wooden house structure, which was very common in the 16th and 17th centuries.
However, with the advancement of mecha technology and the emergence of new building materials such as cement, this kind of house has become very backward.
The house is covered with wooden floors. There is no shortage of wood in the Alps, so it must have been sourced locally.
The layout of the house is also very simple, with a table and a hearth used for fireplace and cooking. It is very similar to Char's earliest house, but there are many specimens of prey hung on the surrounding walls.
For example, a piece of bear skin, a deer head, and even some leopard skins are all animals that sit on the bottom of the prison, but obviously, there are no such strict laws in this era.
Leighton was sitting in front of the stove, adding firewood to the stove, and a kettle filled with water was being heated on the stove.
"Come in," Layton said.
"Please come in." Daniel said quickly to Minerva.
Minerva slowly took off her hat and walked into the room. She looked at Leiden.
"Mr. Leighton Duke, you must have known my intention. The school's owl has delivered the letter in advance."
Leiden slowly turned his head and looked at Minerva.
"You know my name?"
“Schools generally conduct some surveys on the families of enrolled students,” Minerva said, “to facilitate understanding of students and teach students in accordance with their aptitude.”
She looked at Leighton, "Leighton Duke, you were a veteran of West France, participated in the World War, and even participated in the Berlin Blitz led by Joan of Arc and the classic Battle of Verdun, right?
You were one of the generals who resigned from their posts and rushed into Germany to rescue Joan of Arc.
He was taken into prison by the German intelligence agency and held for more than a month. He was finally released due to the signing of a peace treaty between the two parties.
You are Jeanne d'Arc's adjutant. With your military exploits, you are enough to be a major general in West France.
But after the war, you gave up everything and chose to go to the foot of the Alps to herd cattle incognito.
Your son was also born here, but it’s a pity that your wife”
"That's enough." Leiden stopped Minerva from continuing and looked at her with sharp eyes, "Your intelligence system is really powerful."
Daniel opened his eyes slightly and looked at his father. To be honest, this was the first time he knew that his father had such a story in the past.
"Magic can save a lot of time." Minerva said, raising her head slightly.
Her eyes were full of wisdom, as if she had everything under control.
"For you, such an investigation requires a lot of effort, but for us, it may just be a magical thing."
Layton fell silent.
Having seen the giant dragon and the sight of the spear killing the dragon, Daniel's father naturally would not be as skeptical about the existence of magic as the rest of the Muggle family.
He is more worried about the unknown.
He had no idea about that school, let alone what his son would experience after going there.
"What does your school do?" Layton said.
"Teach students like your son how to use their own power." Minerva said, "Your son's magic has begun to awaken. If it is not guided well, there will be a danger of the magic running wild. For him, It will be a threat to their lives and the lives of those around them."
"Magic runaway?" Leiden frowned.
“You can imagine a time bomb inside your son’s body that will explode at some point, maybe never, maybe the next moment.
And we are teaching your son how to control this kind of explosive. "Minerva said.
Leiden looked at Daneva, "I never believe there is any free lunch in this world."
“Since the school was founded by Merlin, its main function has been to provide fresh blood to the magical world.
Just like schools in the world, schools provide fresh blood and high-level talents to society, and the wealth created by talents is fed back to the country.
The state reinvests in schools, creating a virtuous cycle.
Although the magical world cannot be regarded as a country, the existence of the school is also to create such a virtuous cycle, thereby promoting the progress of the entire magical world. "
Layton nodded silently.
Minerva's words continued.
“Due to the inconvenience of transportation, Hogwarts is mainly a boarding school, but we have two long holidays every year, one is summer vacation and the other is winter vacation around Christmas.
Students can go home and reunite with their families during this time. "
After a pause, Minerva continued, "Are you worried about your child's life in school?"
Before Leiden could answer, Minerva continued.
“There is a public phone box inside the school, and parents can check the status of their children at school through the phone at any time.
At the same time, the school also holds some activities every year, and parents can also come to support their children, participate in activities, and learn about their children's school and school life. "
After a pause, Minerva raised her hand, and a simple parchment appeared in her hand, which showed the family's information.
"Your family has encountered a dragon in the past, right?"
Leiden and Daniel both raised their heads.
"We have our own sources of information." Minerva smiled.
But soon, her smile gradually faded and she became serious, "In the future, there will be more and more similar magical events in this world.
