The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

Chapter 181: Appointment at the Blake House

After a few years, Sun Zhu still felt uncontrollably dizzy when he got on the Knight Bus again.

In fact, Grimmauld Place is only a 20-minute walk from King's Cross Station and can be reached using Muggle transportation.

But considering that today is Christmas and most transportation is suspended, we might as well not bother with it and just use the wizard's way to solve it.

Sun Zhu yawned and took his seat with his bag on his back. Looking around, there weren't many wizards traveling on Christmas Day. Perhaps they were all planning to spend the holiday at home, or they might have already traveled abroad.

She thought of her lovely Luna who traveled abroad several times a year.

The Lovegood family enjoys life very much, and travels every holiday, which is really enviable.

However, all this is based on the fact that Mrs. Lovegood is safe and sound. Otherwise, her lovely little Luna would not be able to continue to enjoy her childhood like this.

Sun Zhengxing looked at his daughter who had half-opened her eyes and seemed to be thinking about something, and stretched out his hand to draw an arc under both of her eye sockets.

Sun Zhu looked at his playful father in bewilderment, but he smiled and said, "Didn't you sleep well last night? Look at your dark circles. Do you want to be a panda again?"

"Is it that obvious?" She touched her face. "Actually, I went to bed quite early last night."

"That's dreaming, which affects the quality of sleep."

"Well, I may have had some strange dreams." She didn't deny it, "but I don't remember the details."

Sun Zhengxing put out his hands to protect his daughter, to prevent the sudden acceleration of the Knight Rider from causing a bump on the seat.

Sun Zhu's originally unclear mind was completely awakened by the Knight's car's erratic route and unpredictable speed.

She reached out and adjusted her crooked hairband, signaling to her father that she was fine.

The scenery passing by outside the car window blurred into a red and green double image. Sun Zhu heard his father's voice: "We will be there in about two minutes."

"Hey, Dad, you actually know the way. Have you ever been to the Black Mansion?"

"I haven't been there, but I know I just passed King's Cross Station, and I calculated it based on the speed of the Knight Car and the distance between the two points."

"Dad, you really are worthy of being a Ravenclaw. Others can't even handle motion sickness, but you can still calculate this!"

"Well, hold on tight to the armrests. Each jump will carry you one or two hundred miles, but it won't be pleasant. Be prepared."

Sun Zhu quickly pressed his back against the seat and held on to the handrails on both sides tightly. After two jumps, he finally successfully reached his destination.

Looking at the Knight Bus speeding away, Sun Zhu patted his chest with lingering fear.

This magical means of transportation was specially designed to help wizards who are in distress or have urgent travel needs. Because it is so fast, Muggles can hardly see it.

Even if you see it, you will probably think you are seeing things. After all, it never avoids anything on the road, but road signs and trees and other "roadblocks" actively avoid it.

Sun Zhu rubbed her temples and straightened her skirt. After the bumpy ride, she felt that even without looking in the mirror, she could be sure that she looked very embarrassed.

It was a pity that she had not yet entered the senior grade and could not learn the follower apparition, otherwise she could ask her father to take her directly to the destination through Apparition.

Although it might not taste very good.

"Restored to its original state!" Sun Zhengxing noticed that Sun Zhu was tidying up her clothes, so he cast a spell on himself and his daughter respectively, and the originally messy clothes became neat and tidy again. He looked up at a certain place on the street, and the place where No. 12 was located looked like an empty lot.

Sun Zhu took out the invitation letter given to her by Sirius from her backpack and waved it towards the open space. Soon, they saw a five-story mansion appear in front of them.

What caught his eye was a newly painted red wall, with some marks from years of grimacing on it that could not be removed by magic. The door knocker also looked like it had been replaced, with a glaring griffin. Sun Zhu was reminded of the two stone griffins at the entrance of the principal's office, but the one in front of him was much smaller.

Sun Zhu glanced at her father and took the lead in knocking on the doorknob. She wasn't sure if this would successfully ask for the door to be opened, but it was basic etiquette, and it didn't seem appropriate to just say "Alaho, open it."

Sun Zhengxing looked at the exterior of the small building and said with emotion: "My son Yuanbao also participated in part of the renovation work."

"I hope she's really helping and not just going there to get free food and drinks."

"Our Yuanbao is not that kind of cat..." Sun Zhengxing retorted to his daughter: "She eats openly and honestly, and never uses shady tricks."

"She eats in front of you, so there's no need to use any tricks..." Sun Zhu said, "The main reason is that I heard that Yuanbao asked Professor Black to throw away a lot of his things. I think, maybe..."

The door suddenly creaked open, and Sun Zhu subconsciously turned around and greeted: "Blake..."

But when he saw the person in front of him, he was stunned for two seconds.

Black hair, green eyes, and a lightning scar on his forehead...it was Harry who opened the door.

Sun Zhu looked at him, who was about the same height as himself, and subconsciously took a half step back.

What's going on? Isn't he two years younger than me? Don't boys grow slower than girls when they are young? Why are all of them taller than her?

Do all the black-haired boys here have tall genes?

She recalled the height of the twins and realized that they seemed to be about the same height as her, and sometimes even looked one or two centimeters shorter than her. She suddenly found a little comfort.

This means that it’s not that I’m short, but that tall people just happen to run into her.

Harry looked at the father and daughter in front of him a little awkwardly, and whispered, "Hello, are you Mr. Sun... and Miss Sun?"

"Hello, I'm Sun Zhengxing. We are here at the invitation of Sirius Black to spend Christmas with you. You are his godson, Harry Potter, right?" Dad calmly stepped forward and patted Sun Zhu on the shoulder: "This is my daughter Choo Sun."

Sun Zhu nodded at him: "Merry Christmas, Harry."

Harry looked at the black-haired and black-eyed girl in front of him with some surprise, and nodded quickly: "Christmas... Merry Christmas, both of you follow me in. Sirius is studying lunch, he..."

Harry looked inside and saw a figure walking towards him. He waved excitedly and said, "Remus, Mr. Sun and the others are here!"

Sun Zhu also poked his head in to look further inside.

The decoration style is still Gryffindor, but the most eye-catching thing is the portrait on the wall. The woman in the painting looks very angry because she was woken up by Harry's call just now.

She saw Sun Zhengxing and his daughter, and then looked at the old house that had been transformed into the style she hated the most. She was so angry that she seemed to want to jump out of the frame.

The gentle man with light brown hair hurried forward and covered the picture frame with a dark green cloth before she could start to curse, while also adding a soundproofing spell.

"I'm sorry, Mrs. Black." He whispered, then turned and smiled at Sun Zhengxing and Sun Zhu: "Hello, I'm Remus Lupin, Sirius' friend, currently staying here."

Dad shook his hand warmly. "I've heard Sirius talk about you. I can tell you're a very reliable person."

Lupin smiled, with a gentle smile in his light green eyes: "Me too, Sirius often told me that Mr. Sun helped him a lot at work."

Sun Zhu shrugged. Is the commercial bragging about to begin? Although what they said was indeed the truth.

For someone like Sirius who seems unreliable, it is really a blessing to have a group of very reliable people around him!

"Hello, would you like...something to drink?" A voice came quietly from beside her, and Sun Zhu turned her head to see Harry holding a cup and a tray, looking a little nervous.

She saw the figure of the elf Kreacher quickly disappearing at the end of the corridor connecting to the first floor.

"A cup of hot water will be fine." She smiled at him. "Harry, if you don't mind, you can just call me Bamboo. I... I heard from my father that Professor Black often mentioned you and said that you are a very talented child."

Harry seemed to be relieved and smiled back at her: "He...he always praises me. I...you..."

He paused, as if hesitating about something and not daring to say it out loud.

"Harry, do you have any questions for me?" Sun Zhu glanced at the two adults not far away who seemed to have met each other too late and were chatting animatedly, and spoke to Harry directly.

He was much more shy than he thought, and in fact, he had no reason to be so reserved.

"I, I want to ask..." Harry took a deep breath and said, "Zhu, are you... a wizard?"

Sun Zhu nodded affirmatively and drew out his wand and waved it in front of him: "Of course, I am a second-year student at Hogwarts and a genuine wizard!"

Harry seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and smiled the biggest smile Sun Zhu had ever seen since he entered the room: "Great. I... I am a wizard too! Well, someone once told me so."

"She's right." Sun Zhu showed a slight smile: "Although you don't have a magic wand now, you must be a wizard like us."
