On September 1991, 9, King's Cross Station, England, the open space between platforms 1 and 9 seems to be particularly attractive - some strange people who are not in line with the fashion trend of London come and go, pushing A trolley full of strange items, dragging a heavy suitcase, some people are carrying a birdcage, which is definitely not a cute thrush, but an owl, some people are even more unbelievable-they are holding a toad!

Maybe the passengers running around the station are too hasty, they didn't notice that such a strange thing happens on this day every year.A few responsible guards did notice that they thought about going over to question, but the inexplicable thought disappeared as soon as it appeared. They just looked at it curiously, and then seemed to see nothing. He strode away.

A group of people is walking, the front is a pair of twins with black hair and blue eyes.Behind them were three middle-aged (perhaps young?) men and a middle-aged (younger) lady with long auburn hair and green eyes that shone like jewels and attracted the attention of many passengers.Among the three men, the aristocratic man with curly black hair and unrestrained appearance is particularly eye-catching.Of course, no one could compare to the man who was somewhat similar to the twin boys, who could be identified as their father at a glance, and his proud and proud expression was enough to make everyone laugh.

"Calm down, James, don't let everyone think you're an 11-year-old boy going to school with the twins!" The twins' mother, Lily Potter, elbowed him angrily and amusedly, "You won't be allowed to squeeze in later Gossiping with Harry and Albus on the Hogwarts train - instigating them to go out at night and get into trouble!"

James Potter, the children's father, was aggrieved by the words: "I didn't intend to do that! It was Harry who asked me last night to talk about the secret passage at Hogwarts..."

"Yes, I can prove it." Sirius added, grinning, "Harry is as restless a Gryffindor as James."

"But Albus is very good, and Harry listens to Albus's advice, he won't be as arrogant as James." Lupine smiled softly.

"So I'm very glad that the two of them went to school together!" Lily also laughed, her doting eyes fell on the backs of the chatting and laughing children who were clearly excited, "It would be even better if they could be assigned to the same college gone."

Mentioning the sorting house, James began to frown—"It may be difficult, Albus secretly asked me last night if I was sorted into Slytherin, would I be angry..."

"Then how did you answer?" Sirius asked immediately.

Lily and Remus glared at James, as if James had said something wrong, and they were going to tell him to go home now and not see the children off.

James' expression was uglier than seeing Severus Snape himself being awarded college points by the school professors—"I have to say no!"

"That means you do get angry!"

"You are biased!"

"Poor James..."

The accusations and sympathy from his wife and two good friends drove James crazy: "Are you from Gryffindor College? - Hey! Children, this is here, waiting for us!"

Harry and Albus stopped between platforms 9 and 10 upon hearing the sound, looking curiously at the two eye-catching plastic signs.There was the clattering of luggage and the sound of pattering footsteps behind him. Several adults rushed up in two steps at a time, and surrounded the children.

Stuffing two owls, one white and one gray, to Sirius beside her, Lily stepped forward and put her arms around the children's shoulders, and said to them softly: "Remember? I told you, go straight between the two platforms." Go through the ticket gate, don't be afraid, don't stop, just close your eyes, and rush in - then you can see the magical crimson steam locomotive, of course, you must open your eyes at this time. You know that on the first day of school, the station is full of little wizards and their parents. Come on, children!"

She gave it a little push.Harry and Albus looked at each other and took deep, nervous breaths with expressions that made Dad, Godfather, and their closest uncle, Uncle Lupine, laugh and miss.Who, seeing such an expression, would not remember standing here back then, full of anticipation and joy?

"Are you afraid, Albus?"

"No—in fact, I feel as though I've been here before."

Harry giggled, and rushed to the railing first, getting closer, only a step away, and Albus ran too, and in the blink of an eye, their figures disappeared through the brick wall.

Opening his eyes, Harry was surprised.Beside the platform crowded with passengers, the sign of the Hogwarts Express was so eye-catching, hanging on the train, in front of his eyes, it also showed the time, ten fifty-three.Looking back, the place where the ticket gate used to be is now a wrought iron archway with the words: Platform Nine and Three Quarters.

"Oh—sorry!"

It was Albus' voice.

"It's you?" Draco's voice followed.

Turning his head, Harry saw Albus awkwardly walking away from Draco's back - presumably he had run too fast and hit Draco on the edge of the platform saying goodbye to his parents.

They hadn't seen Draco since that year when they wandered from Diagon Alley to Muggle streets and scared their parents for a long time to take them out.They didn't seem to be too enthusiastic about it. Lily talked about it with James once, and felt that the reason was that Draco was too indifferent, and he was as inaccessible as Severus, so Harry and Abu It was difficult for Si to take the initiative to invite Draco, and the Malfoys were not very keen on the relationship between the two families.Harry and Albus saw Ron a lot, but Ron was a good kid after all, so he didn't bother to guess.

Lucius and Narcissa also saw this scene, and did not show any displeasure at being offended.In fact, they were curious about the two little Potters who made Draco forget the Malfoy rules from time to time and act childishly.There is even a famous "savior" among them. However, it is rumored that this "savior" never pretends to be arrogant, but is mischievous and playful.

"Hello, Mrs. Malfoy... hello, Mr. Malfoy," said Albus timidly.

"Nice to see you again, Albus." Narcissa smiled, and secretly glanced at her husband, self-evident - it's been several years, this kid still blush when he sees Lucius, weird, yes Bar?

Lucius ignored his wife's joke and said nothing to Albus, but instead looked at Harry with the lightning-shaped scar: "Where are your parents?"

"Hello, Mr. Malfoy, Mrs. Malfoy—our parents will be here soon." After Harry finished speaking, he smiled at them, and winked at Draco, which was also self-evident—Ho Ho , your father is still more attractive than you yo Draco!

He slipped away before Draco could get serious, because he saw Ron being dragged by his youngest sister, Ginny, who seemed to be hanging on to her brother to join him on the train.

"I'm going - I'm the only kid left! Let me go with you, Ron! I want to go to school!"

"No! You have to wait until you are old - I waited 11 years for the chance to get rid of my mother's nagging, although I have to continue to listen to her nagging during the holidays!"

"What did you say - Ron Weasley! How dare you say that again and I'll get your bags down right now!"

"Really, Mom? Do it quickly! Fred and I don't want to be thrown into the black lake by our idiots at Hogwarts - take these two little ones home quickly !"

"Don't call your younger brother an idiot, or you will go home for me!"

"No, Mom!"

Draco pouted, glared at Albus who was smiling shyly, and said sarcastically, "It's really lively, isn't it?"

Guessing that Draco was angry, Albus wisely chose not to speak.But not talking can't make Draco happy, he turned around angrily, pushed away a few freshmen who were screaming, and went straight to the train door under their surprised eyes, and disappeared in a flash.

"This kid is getting worse and worse." Lucius frowned.Albus felt inexplicably guilty.

Narcissa wasn't very worried, she smiled and waved at Draco who was sitting by the window: "There's nothing wrong with him. He's just a child, he should behave like a child, make friends with his peers, not Contrary to the family rules day and night."

"You spoiled him!"

"Listen to this, is it my fault alone?"

When the Malfoys were arguing, the Potters came to the platform, followed by Sirius and Lupine, carrying a lot of luggage, and they were mighty.

The eyes met, and the atmosphere was a little tense.

In the end, it was Sirius who forced a smile first, and said hello: "Long time no see, Narcissa. Are you here to see Draco?"

"Yes." Narcissa's smile was also unnatural, but she was much more polite than Lucius, "Time flies so fast, in a blink of an eye, my sons, your godchildren, are all of school age... "

"Well, um... that's right." Sirius couldn't find any other topics to talk about.

James took the opportunity to grab his wife, smiled and motioned for Albus to follow, and boarded the Hogwarts Express.A black boy, who introduced himself as Lee Jordan, recognized the former Hogwarts Chaser and the current leader of the Auror Operations Team of the Ministry of Magic, and enthusiastically offered help, in exchange for an autograph.Lee Jordan was severely despised by Percy Weasley, and he also enthusiastically helped Lily mention the owl for a gossip (related to Hogwarts) that he accidentally picked up.

Lupine and Sirius found Harry, reminded him that it was time to get on the train, and asked him to take care of Albus.

"If... I mean if you're not in the same house as Albus, don't isolate him and act like a brother. Most importantly, no matter which house you're assigned to, don't be bullied by others— Write to us often, will you?"

Harry felt sad that Sirius was more worried than his parents, and hugged Sirius and Lupine one after another: "I will write a lot, so much that Dad will be jealous of you!"

"That would be the best."

Sirius laughed.Harry knew the godfather was very sad to be away from them both for so long.The godfather lived by himself for too long, he refused to live with them, just like Lupine liked to be alone, always so lonely... Harry thought, why can't Sirius and Lupine live with them?Is it because Harry and Albus and James and Lily are family, as they say?

But Harry was a kid after all, and he couldn't think much of it.Hogwarts is about to welcome so many little wizards, and the Hogwarts Express is so much fun, he can't wait to be part of it.

"Goodbye, Dad! Goodbye, Mom." The brothers gave their parents a kiss and waved goodbye reluctantly through the half-opened car window.

James was a little irritable: "Oh! Those senior students are really daring, one by one they use magic joke toys to trick others! What if Harry and Albus are messed up by them? Will they get hurt? They won't be in Hogwarts Being bullied? How annoying! Why did school start so soon?!"

Someone gave a light snort, shook his robe and walked past them, only nodding to Lily as a greeting.
