Our Hogwarts

Chapter 4: The Leaky Cauldron where I miss you day and night

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspSeeing the date, Bruce thought of a way. April 4th, that is, tomorrow is the anniversary of Angel Orphanage. On this morning, a celebration ceremony will be held in the orphanage, and caring people from the society will come here to gather with the children.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspIn the past, anniversaries had not mattered much to Bruce, but it was different now. Because this may be an opportunity for him to leave

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce stayed in the room all day perfecting his "escape" plan, and didn't fall asleep until about 1 a.m. in the morning. The next morning, Bruce woke up and got dressed before the carer arrived.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAt nine o'clock, the ceremony began and everyone gathered in the restaurant to distribute gifts to the children. Then it was performance time, and everyone watched the performance with gusto. But no one noticed that a thin figure left "sneakily" through the back door.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAs soon as he left the orphanage, Bruce ran quickly on his short legs, aiming directly at the Leaky Cauldron.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspThe orphanage is some distance from the Leaky Cauldron, which is a bit difficult for Bruce, a six-year-old child. However, the excitement in his heart drove him to persevere.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAn hour and a half later, Bruce stood panting at the door of the small bar, with a proud and excited smile on his face.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspPushing the door open, the light in the bar is dim and the only lighting tool is candles. Some strangely dressed people were sitting around the bar chatting and drinking.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAs soon as Bruce entered the door, everyone focused their attention on him. After all, a little guy suddenly appeared here and aroused suspicion.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAt this time, an old man with a "Mediterranean" hairstyle and wearing retro waiter clothes walked up to Bruce.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Child, why are you here?" the man asked with concern.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspIf it were an ordinary child, he would give the wrong answer, or he would simply be too frightened to speak. But who is Bruce? He is a member of the reborn army. He thought of a way to deal with it last night.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce looked at the man pitifully and said: "Sir, my parents and I accompanied my sister to buy supplies for going to Hogwarts. They got separated"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Oh, what a poor child." The old man said with concern: "But it doesn't matter, you can wait here for them to come and find you."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Holy shit, can I wait?" Bruce thought helplessly. He looked at the old man and cried, "No, no, I want it." Go find mom and dad”

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspLooking at the crying child in front of him, the old man asked helplessly: "Child, do you know where your parents are?"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce was waiting for this sentence. He "thought about it" and said, "Dad said he was going to buy a wand for his sister."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Oh, that's Ollivander's place." The old man immediately said: "Okay, kid, I'll take you to Diagon Alley."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspps: Don’t ask me why I chose Ollivander’s Wand Shop, because after watching the entire series of movies, I will remember this wand shop.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce's little head kept nodding and said: "Well, thank you, grandpa, you are so kind."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspChildren are sincere when they say thank you and praise someone, at least for ordinary children. The old man was very impressed by Bruce's "polite" praise and said with a kind smile: "Haha, you're welcome, he's a cute kid."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspThen he took Bruce’s little hand and walked to the small patio behind the Leaky Cauldron Bar. There is nothing here except a trash can and some weeds.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspThe old man came to the trash can and said to Bruce: "Child, stay back."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce hurriedly took a step back. The old man took out his wand and knocked on the bricks on the wall a few times, and said: "Count three bricks up and then go up." "Two pieces per mile"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHe tapped the wall three times with his wand.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspThe brick he knocked on began to shake, and then began to move. A small hole appeared in the middle, and the hole became bigger and bigger. Before long, there was something in front of them. A wide archway appeared, leading to a winding, cobbled street with no end in sight.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspDiagon Alley, a famous place in the wizarding world. The place where Bruce thought about day and night, and now he finally came here.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp"Let's go, kid," the old man said to Bruce.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce nodded and followed him closely. In the movie, Bruce had already seen Diagon Alley, but only after he actually came here did he realize that in the movie The scene was so shabby.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspEverywhere you look you can see "retro" houses, and there are many shops around it, making it easy for people to feel like they are back in the past.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce looked around, hoping to see everything: all the stores, the objects in front of the stores, and the people shopping.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspA fat woman stood outside the drugstore. As they passed by, she shook her head and said, "Dragon liver, seventeen ounces for an ounce, they are crazy." "

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspA low and soft whine came from a dark store. The signboard in front of the door read: Eela Owl Shop Gray Owl, Song Horned Owl, Grass Owl, Brown Owl, Snowy Owl.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspThere are also shops selling robes, some selling telescopes and strange silverware that I have never seen before. Other windows were filled with baskets of bat spleens and eel eyeballs, stacked with spell books, quills, rolls of parchment, medicine bottles, and lunar instruments.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHowever, Bruce did not see the "Flying Broom Shop" that he wanted to see most.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce looked around like a country bumpkin who had never seen the market before entering the city for the first time. Everything here made him feel fresh.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAnd his appearance also aroused the old man's doubts. He asked: "Child, what is your name?"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp"Bruce Sterling" Bruce replied, then asked: "Sir, may I ask your name"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Oh, just call me Tom," Tom replied, and then he never thought that there was a magic family whose surname was Sterling. Tom asked in confusion. : "Child, you are a Muggle"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce smiled softly in his heart and pretended to be very excited and said: "Oh, I know Muggles. My mother told me that my father is a Muggle."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspHearing this sentence, Tom looked like he suddenly realized it, and thought to himself: "It turns out that this child is a mixed race."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Children, Hogwarts starts on September 1st. Do you want to buy something now?" Tom asked.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce showed an innocent smile and said: "That's because my sister and I both want to play here. Mom has told us that Diagon Alley is very interesting. And Butterbeer at the Leaky Cauldron is the most delicious drink”

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp "Yeah." Tom nodded proudly, with the wrinkles on his face almost squeezed together. It was obvious that Bruce's flattery was very good. He smiled and said: "Yes, your mother is absolutely right."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspIf you say too much, you will make mistakes. Bruce did not want to continue discussing his "family" issue. He immediately changed the subject and asked: "Mr. Tom, I When can I go to Hogwarts like my sister?"

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspTom said with a smile: "Don't worry about your child. You will receive the admission notice when you are 11 years old. I believe you will become an excellent wizard."

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspBruce's "plot" succeeded. He immediately climbed up the pole and started asking about the situation at Hogwarts. electricity

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspMovies are one thing and reality is another thing. The Hogwarts shown in the movie is only a very small part, not to mention that Cheng Ren only watched it A movie about which very few people know.

&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbsp&a;a;nbspAt this time, Bruce's ability to make friends that he had suppressed for many years emerged. He and Tom had a happy chat along the way. During the chat, Tom also told Bruce a lot of things he didn't know. About ten minutes later, the two stopped in front of a shop. .
