The Little Superman of Hogwarts
#181 - Chapter 181 [On the eve of school opening]
The Little Superman of Hogwarts - Chapter 181 [Eve of School]
During the last stage of the summer vacation, Kerry quietly sat in front of the TV watching a program.
It was an interview program, and the interviewees were two guys who claimed to be Superman. One of them was quite handsome, and the other looked like a short, fat dwarf.
This summer, the legend of Superman officially remained in London. Of course, in reality, there were three Supermen—Kerry, Hermione, and Ginny.
As a true Superman, Kerry mostly used Superman's superpowers: infinite strength, swift speed, and super hearing that covered a radius of 1 kilometer without distinction.
Hermione possessed 1% of Kerry's power. And she was also a witch. Her version of Superman was more like a gadget Superman—she purchased many alchemical tools and armed herself like Doraemon. However, with these inexplicable magical gadgets, she could still complete the mission of Superman.
Ginny, after delving into potions in the previous academic year, had already become a quasi-potion master. In Kerry's view, Ginny's actions were more like those of a toxicology master, using hypnotic potions, hallucinogenic potions, and so on in succession. But the effect was great. All the criminals were like little quails, obediently waiting to die.
The joint actions of the three Supermen reduced all violent crimes in and around London to 20% of their original level.
The shameless incumbent Mayor of London took all the credit for himself.
However, the eyes of the masses were sharp. The name of Superman still spread to the market in a very short time. For a while, a Superman craze swept through London. The program in front of them was a hilarious interview presented by two guys who claimed to be Superman.
Kerry's sister, Ellie, was now in Kerry's arms. The little one, who was over a year old, had now begun to babble. She was very clever and much more mature than children of the same age.
At the same time, the magical elements in Ellie's body had reached about 80 cards. At this rate, around the age of 8, her magic power would exceed 500 cards and be discovered by Hogwarts.
Kerry's mother sat next to Kerry, and the two of them watched this humorous program together. Tomorrow, Kerry would go to London to buy the things he needed for the next academic year, and the day after that, he would take the train to Hogwarts. Therefore, Kerry's mother took time out of her busy schedule to rush home and spend the last day of the summer vacation with Kerry.
Alice was in the kitchen preparing dinner. Tomorrow, Kerry would return to school, so Alice prepared a feast, wanting to give him a good send-off.
At this moment, Kerry's father pushed the door open and came in, looking travel-worn.
"My good son, you seem to be very idle!" Old Henry's tone was full of resentment. He was busy to death outside, but the guy who assigned him the task was leisurely watching TV here.
"Dad! Sit down quickly. Here's some chilled watermelon, I've already cut it! Come and have some!" Kerry replied quickly.
Old Henry's face softened slightly. He sat down at the table without ceremony, leaned on Kerry's mother, and began to eat watermelon.
Kerry's mother took out a tissue and thoughtfully wiped the sweat from Kerry's father's forehead.
At this moment, Alice walked in with a group of chefs, carrying a huge plate in her hands.
"Chinese chefs are really hard to find!" Alice complained, opening the lid of the huge plate. Inside was a Beijing-style charcoal hot pot.
That's right, Kerry had a unique idea for this dinner. He just wanted his family to sit together and have a happy hot pot meal.
Hot pot was simply a crushing-level existence compared to the barren British food.
Soon, the family sat down happily and ate very happily, especially Alice, who had been busy for half a day. She couldn't believe that there was such a delicious thing in the world.
At this time, Old Henry suddenly asked, ": Will you have any new ideas this academic year?"
"What do you mean by new ideas?" Kerry didn't understand.
"Let me put it bluntly—are you going to hook up with a new girl this academic year?" Old Henry said with resentment.
"How could I!?" Kerry was dumbfounded.
"In the first academic year, you made your first girlfriend, Hermione. In the second academic year, you made your second girlfriend, Ginny. Fortunately, they are both very good girls!" Old Henry complained, ": But in order to please both of them, you insisted on arranging so many things for your father—me!"
"Just buying gold, I have already bought more than 1500 kilograms of gold, so much so that the London tax bureau came to investigate me. Do you know how difficult those tax officials are to deal with?"
"And this academic year, in order to balance your two girlfriends, you even deliberately went to please Hermione's parents and build a hospital! Oh! I should say you just moved your lips, but left the work to me!"
Old Henry complained about Kerry for a while.
Kerry felt a little speechless. He felt that Old Henry was just complaining, but he didn't have any good words to refute, after all, he did do these things, and Old Henry did a lot to clean up his mess.
"Okay, my dear father!" Kerry looked at Old Henry and groped to take out a bottle of potion from his pocket: "Then I'll give you this bottle of potion as a reward!"
"What the hell is this?" Old Henry asked while eating mutton slices.
"Rejuvenation potion! Each bottle can make people 10 years younger!" Kerry suddenly showed the expression of a salesman in an advertisement, and said very exaggeratedly to his father.
But unlike what Kerry thought, after hearing the word [Rejuvenate], everyone present was stunned.
Except for Kerry's sister who was squeaking and eating noodles, all three adults were stunned.
Kerry even heard Old Henry's breathing become rapid. Old Henry's trembling voice asked, ": Is this really a rejuvenation potion? Can it really bring people back to their youth?"
Kerry thought for a while and said, ": Strictly speaking, that's right, but its effect may not be as good as many myths say. This is just a wizard's potion, not a god's potion."
This potion was made by Snape at Kerry's request. In fact, this is the elixir of life that Nicolas Flamel took. The effect of this potion is obvious, considering that this old guy has lived from the Middle Ages to the present.
In the original book, the Philosopher's Stone was destroyed in the first academic year, but in Kerry's case, the Philosopher's Stone is still kept in Dumbledore's hands. Dumbledore even used the stone to create 4 souls.
Thanks to the relationship between Klee and Dumbledore, he easily borrowed the Philosopher's Stone for some time last school year, and Klee also asked Snape, the potions master, to brew several bottles of longevity potion.
Strictly speaking, the longevity potion isn't that mysterious. For many wizards, as long as they want to live, they can live much longer than Muggles. However, many wizards gradually give up on continuing to live after living for more than 100 years, because wizards live in relatively closed environments, so most of them have some serious psychological problems. Perhaps these problems aren't a big deal in 10 or 20 years, but when that scale is magnified to 100 or 200 years, even small problems become huge problems.
Therefore, wizards die more often from diseases of the soul and mind. They die more from psychological illnesses. Klee even thought of Dementors, feeling that Dementors were born from the abnormal psychology of wizards.
Although these potions are nothing to Klee, the three adults present all realized the significance of this potion.
A potion that can extend life by 10 years is enough to drive the world's wealthy crazy; they might even start wars.
Klee handed the red potion to Old Henry, who stroked the glass bottle with his rough hands, as if he were touching not a potion, but his newlywed wife.
Klee's mother and the housekeeper, Alice, also looked at the potion with shocked expressions.
Seeing their bewildered expressions, Klee chuckled.
Then he took out two more bottles of potion from his pocket and handed them to the two stunned ladies.
"There are actually three bottles of life-extending potion!" Klee's mother exclaimed.
"Relax!" Klee explained, "Although this potion is very precious in the Muggle world, most wizards can easily get it for a few Galleons. So, although it's expensive, it's not as precious as you think."
Klee slowly explained various things about the wizarding world, and gradually the three of them realized that the potion didn't actually have a mythical effect.
The latter half of the hotpot meal was marked by the three others being absent-minded due to the potion's presence. Klee could only shrug at this, saying: Muggles are Muggles, so unworldly!
After the meal, they all drank the potion.
Of course, there were no obvious changes. The potion needed some time to take effect. The next morning, Klee's mother woke up first and found that the skin on her face was much better, and even her hair had become smoother.
After getting out of bed, Old Henry was pleasantly surprised to find that the early morning 'flag-raising' activity, which had almost disappeared at his age, reappeared on his little thing.
He was so excited that he couldn't describe it—any man would understand this feeling.
So, when Klee left home, Old Henry gave Klee a big hug and vowed that he would complete the first phase of the hospital's construction before winter came, and officially open the first phase of the hospital next spring.
Klee never thought that potions could have this effect?
In the morning, Klee appeared in Diagon Alley, buying various things according to the contents of the letter.
Halfway through, Hermione appeared in Diagon Alley, and the two went to Flourish and Blotts together to buy those damned books.
"They really are damned books!" Hermione complained angrily.
This year, Hagrid will take over the Care of Magical Creatures class, and he has chosen a very peculiar book, 'The Monster Book of Monsters'.
The first time Hermione got the book, she was bitten by it. Although protected by Klee's 1% superpower, the Monster Book didn't break her finger, but the fright still made the girl feel unbearable.
"Hermione, you've actually forgotten one thing!" The Monster Book was very obedient in Klee's hands. He stroked the spine of the book and said, "This book actually has its own life, and their lives are very simple: the law of the jungle, and the characteristics of many magical creatures—extreme!"
"So, if you want it to treat you well, you can't treat it as a book, but as a beast!
And for a beast, you can only subdue it by defeating it!"
Klee waved his fist, signaling Hermione to do the same.
Hermione frowned, looked at the buckled Monster Book, and raised her "thin and delicate" little pink fist, which had 6 tons of power.
"Thud…" Hermione moved her fist and smashed it towards the Monster Book. With 6 tons of force, the Monster Book instantly stuck out its long tongue. The Monster Book instantly spat out its teeth. When had it ever suffered such a blow?
That was a full 6 tons of force! Only an African elephant on this planet could swing this fist!
After Hermione retracted her fist, the Monster Book in her hand was indeed as docile as a little rabbit, and dared not be presumptuous again.
Hermione nodded in satisfaction, revealing a contented smile.
The two's shopping came to the last stop, where they met a long-lost classmate—Harry Potter.
Harry Potter had just come out of the bookstore and was surrounded by Seamus, Dean, and others in front of the Quidditch Supplies shop, looking at the new broom—the Firebolt!
Harry was smitten with the flying broom at first sight.
For a Seeker, a good flying broom is like a big-breasted, peerless beauty.
And Harry, in addition to being a Seeker, is also an attacker and scout for the 91st team.
"Looks like you like it quite a bit!" Klee said directly, looking at the dazed Harry.
Hermione covered her mouth and snickered beside him, feeling that boys' interest in flying brooms was really incomprehensible to her.
Harry walked out of the enthusiastic crowd around the Firebolt, and the three of them found a place to chat quietly about their summer experiences.
Harry told Klee about the Minister of Magic's visit in detail again. Klee and Hermione both comforted Harry, saying that it was just to protect him.
"Isn't it a little bad for us to deceive him like this?" Hermione said to Klee after Harry left.
"It's better for him to explore the truth himself!" Klee said, "Otherwise, according to Dumbledore's love for him, he would definitely tell Harry directly."
"This is an opportunity for growth!" Klee said, looking at the bustling crowd.
When the two finished shopping, Klee suddenly thought of something. He asked Hermione, "Are you interested in buying a pet?"
"A pet?" Hermione thought for a moment and said, "Maybe I should buy a cat too, just like your Mrs. Black Cat Policewoman! I like her very much!"
