Marvel's Hogwarts Wizards

Chapter 26 Jerry Hermione and Neville

...

During the chat, Hermione also gradually discovered that Jerry was actually a kindred spirit like herself. Although he didn't have as many textbooks as he had memorized, he had a lot of his own opinions on magic theory and various spell knowledge.

Immediately, I became interested, and at the same time, I recognized Jerry more in my heart.

As the saying goes, "It's too much if you don't speculate, but it's less than a thousand glasses of wine when you meet a bosom friend!"

Jerry and Hermione talked more and more vigorously, and the more they chatted, the more engrossed they became. Before he knew it, he didn't even notice that the Hogwarts Express had started to leave the station.

"Hello, is there anyone here? The other places are full!"

At this moment, a stuttering voice suddenly sounded, interrupting the magic communication between Jerry and Hermione.

In the aisle of the box, a round-faced and chubby little wizard was holding a golden-backed toad in his left hand and pulling the suitcase in his right hand, his eyes glanced at the empty seat opposite Jerry and Hermione from time to time.

"No one, you can sit across from us!"

Jerry replied with a smile.

The boy immediately happily pushed the suitcase to the corner of the box, then sat down with the toad in his arms.

"I... My name is Neville Longbottom, I'm a freshman this year, you can call me Neville!"

After the boy sat down, he introduced himself nervously.

"Jerry Carmen!"

"Hermione Granger!"

Jerry and Hermione glanced at each other, they could see that the boy opposite was a little nervous, so they smiled and introduced themselves at the same time.

Perhaps feeling the kindness in Jerry and Hermione's tone, the boy gradually relaxed and joined Jerry and Hermione's chat.

However, since Neville hadn't previewed the textbook yet, the three of them stopped talking about magic at this time, but talked about their respective births and family situations.

When talking about his family, Neville, who was a little nervous, was no longer so restrained.

"I was brought up by my grandmother, but all these years, our family has treated me like a Muggle, and my Uncle Algie always tried to force me to show my magic by taking advantage of people's unsuspecting."

Then, Neville talked about his tragic experience of being thrown into the Black Lake by his uncle Algie and almost drowned, and thrown from upstairs and almost fell to death.

I heard Jerry and Hermione say that the elders of the pure-blood wizard family really know how to play.

In fact, according to Jerry's knowledge, Neville's parents seem to be both Aurors. During the First Wizarding War, they were captured by Death Eaters and tortured to the point of insanity with the Cruciatus Curse. They were admitted to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries.

In order to make Neville, who was only one year old, forget the cruel scene of his parents being tortured, his grandma cast a "Forgetting Curse" on him. It may be because Neville was too young at that time, which caused side effects after being cast on the Forgetting Curse. My mind is broken, and I become very forgetful.

In other words, can a one-year-old really remember things?

Jerry has also heard people say that Neville is actually the prophesied son in Professor Trelawney's prophecy, because Neville's parents are both Aurors (policemen in the wizarding world), who have attacked Voldemort at least three times, and Neville was also born in July. moon.

Even when it was just born, it was able to magically make the blanket wrap itself more tightly.

If it wasn't for the damage to the mind caused by the sequelae of the "Forgetting Curse", and the inability to smoothly control the magic power in the body, Neville's magic talent might not be worse than Voldemort.

However, these are actually not important things to Jerry, he doesn't care who is the son of prophecy.

How to seek benefits and strengthen his own strength through the general plot trend he knows is what he has to consider.

After Neville finished talking, Hermione also began to chat about various anecdotes about her childhood life before receiving the admission letter, and the changes after receiving the admission letter.

Unlike Neville, who came from a family of pure-blood wizards, Hermione lived in the suburbs of London, her parents were both dentists, and she was a pair of ordinary Muggles who didn't understand magic.

Perhaps it was because she was not born into a wizarding family that Hermione always wanted to prove herself so much.

But the income of the dentist is considerable, and her family also belongs to that kind of happy and harmonious type, so her childhood was actually very happy.

After both of them finished speaking, they turned their eyes to Jerry at the same time.

Jerry froze for a moment, then immediately reacted and said:

"I am an orphan. I was abandoned in an orphanage since I was a child. I don't know whether my parents are wizards or Muggles. I only know the existence of magic when I received the admission letter from Hogwarts!"

"orphan!"

Neville and Hermione looked at Jerry with sympathy gradually.

Although Neville's parents are both in the hospital, he still has his grandmother, uncle, and aunt who love him, and he hasn't suffered much since he was a child.

Although Hermione was born in a Muggle family, she was also an only child. She was the jewel in the palm of her family since she was a child, and her childhood life was not unhappy.

In contrast, Jerry's status in this world is indeed a bit miserable.

"I didn't expect that Jerry's life experience is so miserable, but he can still face life with a smile, and he is so positive and optimistic. He is really brave and strong!"

Hermione saw that when Jerry told about his life experience, he didn't have that kind of sad and uncomfortable expression at all, instead he showed open-mindedness and sunshine everywhere, and he felt both sympathy and admiration in his heart.

"Honey, do you want to buy something to eat?"

At this moment, there was a loud clicking noise in the aisle, followed by a smiling woman with dimples, pushing open the door of their box.

It turned out that the three of them were chatting vigorously, and before they knew it, it was past twelve o'clock at noon.

Looking at the various snacks on the trolley, the three of them suddenly felt their stomachs growling.

"I want a chocolate frog!"

Neville got up first and ran towards the cart.

Hermione and Jerry also got up at the same time, and started picking on the trolley right after.

In the end, Neville returned to his seat with a bunch of Chocolate Frogs, Hermione just took a cauldron cake, and Jerry asked for three pumpkin pies and a box of Bibbies.

Hogwarts gave Jerry a hundred gold Galleons a year as a bursary. After buying all the necessities, there were four or five gold Galleons left, which was enough for his daily expenses for a year.

You know, the board and lodging at Hogwarts are free, and these magical snacks are not expensive.

For three pieces of pumpkin pie and a box of Bibi's multi-flavored beans, Jerry only spent one silver Sickle and fifteen copper Knuts.

The three pieces of pumpkin pie were used by himself to satisfy his hunger. Compared with the snacks of Qiqibaba, he still prefers to eat the staple food of pumpkin pie.

As for the box of Bibi's multi-flavored beans, he plans to keep it and give it to his sister Aisha when he returns.

Bibi multi-flavored beans, the famous product of the world's jelly bean company, are said to have more than 700 different flavors.

From the common flavors of chocolate, strawberry thin, mint candy, orange marmalade, etc., to the special flavors of spinach, pork liver and tripe, as well as the heavy flavors of vomiting, earwax, and snot.

Presumably, my sister must like this magical snack very much!
