The meal was very enjoyable, Merlin was not stingy, and ordered a table of dishes, and Romani didn't stop until he couldn't hold even a little bit of chocolate pudding in his stomach.

"Is it tasty?"

"Delicious!" Romani said happily, and took the toilet paper handed by Merlin to wipe his mouth. "I have never eaten such delicious food in the orphanage."

"There are endless delicious things, and it will take you a while to discover them after school." Romani's sense of happiness is very easy to obtain, delicious food is enough, and Merlin smiled.

"Come on, you only need one animal now. Hogwarts can take a cat, an owl or a toad."

When they came out of the dining room, the rain had stopped, and the silverware in the sunlit windows gleamed harshly.Merlin led Romani across the street and came to a shop specializing in magical animals.

The shop is full of cages, big and small, and it smells like animals.Romani looked next to a creature that looked more like a white-haired squirrel than a cat, sleeping with its head in its ass.

"Professor, is that a cat?"

"Ah, oh." Merlin glanced at the cage and raised his eyebrows, "Yeah, it's also a cat."

The white-haired cat (or squirrel) was woken up by Merlin and Romani, its fluffy head approached the cage, and licked Romani's fingers holding the cage.

Romani withdrew his hand like an electric shock, and the little animal raised its head and looked at Merlin across the cage.Merlin showed a mysterious smile and flicked its nose.

"It's so sad how you're doing so badly! Let's go and don't buy anything."

"It licked me just now—" the little animal let out a fu-fu cry, and it sounded pitiful.Romani couldn't stand it, and looked at it with eyes full of love and sympathy.

"Romani, remember, never be fooled by this cute-looking creature." Merlin turned around and looked at the pudding in the opposite cage. These soft balls have affectionate eyes.

"If you like plush, you can buy one of these." Merlin suggested.

"But professor, it seems to like me very much." Romani was very reluctant, "and its eyes are purple, just like yours."

So Romani and the little animals looked at Merlin with pitiful eyes, and Merlin sighed and raised his hands in surrender.

Merlin paid six Galleons for it, and Romani clung to the white cat, whom she decided to name Fufu.Fufu licked Romani's cheek, making Romani giggle, and it waved its paw at Merlin brazenly.

"This must be the day I have compromised the most." Merlin looked at Fufu sullenly, and walked down the stairs.

They turned around Diagon Alley again, and Romani, interested in everything on the street, rushed ahead, pointing to the feathers, fangs, and giant spider legs hanging in the shop.Merlin lazily followed, answering a barrage of questions, and bought some quills for Romani to suck.

"It's time for us to go home. I'll take you to the station tomorrow morning, and you can take the train to school with everyone." Merlin looked at his watch, "It's getting late—ouch."

The gemstone bracelet on Merlin's wrist suddenly sounded a beep alarm, his face changed, and he stuffed the box into Romani's hand, "Sorry! I'm in a hurry, this box contains all the things we bought, your notice Tickets, and a bag of Galleons."

"Yes, Professor?"

"Listen," Merlin said hastily, "go to the pub over there for the night, take a train to King's Cross Station—" the beeping of the siren became louder, "see you at school!"

With a snap, Merlin disappeared.Romani stood there with Fufu in his left hand and a box in his right, full of doubts.A few seconds later, a tall and thin witch stepped in front of him stepping on high heels, with long blond hair hanging over her shoulders.

"Fu, Fufu."

Romani probably guessed the reason why Merlin left in a hurry. He must have been entangled by a bad woman, and Romani was very sympathetic.He found the bar that Merlin had mentioned, and checked in at ease after confirming that he could take the Muggle subway outside Diagon Alley to the station.The room was very warmly furnished, and Romani fell on the bed. He had accepted too many new things today, and now he was sleepy and tired, and fell asleep the moment his head touched the pillow.

Just after dawn, Romani got up to pack his luggage.He took out all the things he bought, put them back neatly, and took the suitcase to catch the first subway.Romani was afraid of missing the train, and he didn't want Merlin to think he wasn't even capable of getting to school by himself.

Fortunately, everything went well. He arrived at King's Cross Station at 10:15, 45 minutes before the train left, so he had plenty of time.Romani took out the train ticket and looked for the platform. 93/4, he has never been on a train, but he knows that ordinary train stations certainly do not have such strange platforms.Romani stopped between platforms 9 and 10, and there was nothing between them, and he stood in the middle of the platform in a daze.

"Fu!" At this moment, Fuvromani jumped off his shoulders, rubbed his legs to attract Romani's attention, and led him to run straight towards the partition wall between the platforms.

"Wait! Fufu, I'm going to hit you!" Romani shouted anxiously, but nothing happened and Fufu disappeared.

"Fu...fu?" Romani rubbed his eyes and reached out to touch the partition wall.The wall was very solid, and his hand didn't go through it, so he started to panic.

"Need help?" At this moment a girl about his age walked up to him. She had short purple hair covering one eye. "Are you going to Hogwarts?"

"Hello!" Romani hurriedly greeted her, "Yes, yes, I don't know how to get there, and my pet just disappeared on this wall..."

"Don't worry." The girl smiled gently at him, "Just keep your eyes closed and walk through the wall. It will definitely be waiting for you at the station."

The girl showed him by pushing the cart with the huge box and an owl cage on it, and they all disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Well, Romani cheered himself up, as if he was hitting a wall, just go through it - he closed his eyes, hit it hard, there was no pain as imagined, the wall seemed to melt, and there was a sound of steam cars in his ears The sound of the flute and the noisy conversation of the crowd.He opened his eyes, and there was a crimson steam train with a sign on it: Hogwarts Express.The girl just stood among her family and waved to him (a man with long purple hair glared at Romani, who seemed to be her father) Fufu jumped on his shoulder.

Romani exclaimed, walked through the crowd, found an empty car and got in.He doesn't have a huge suitcase, so it's easy to move around, which also makes him a little nervous to wonder if he's missing something.A whistle sounded, and the students rushed onto the train in a hurry.

"Sorry, can I sit here?" The girl just now opened the door, "There are no empty cars..."

"Of course!" Romani helped her carry her luggage into the car, and they sat down facing each other, "I didn't have time to introduce myself just now, my name is Romani Akiman."

"Hi, I'm Matthew Kyrielight." The girl introduced, "Nice to meet you."

"Thank you so much just now," Romani was a little embarrassed, "I don't know how to get to the station..."

"You're welcome." Matthew said, and Fufu ran over to sniff her very affectionately, "Hey, don't you have any family to see you off?"

When Romani told her that she was an orphan, Matthew immediately blushed and apologized, "I'm sorry!"

"It's okay," Romani shook his head, "but a professor from Hogwarts came to pick me up from the orphanage yesterday, saying that he will be my guardian in the future. Well, his name is Merlin Ambrosius."

"Mr. Merlin!" Matthew said in surprise, "That Mr. Merlin? My aunt is his student!"

"Hey?"

"No, strictly speaking, most wizards are his students...but my aunt is more like his apprentices. Merlin is a great wizard."

"Really?" Romani was also surprised, "Can you tell me more about his story? I only know that he teaches at Hogwarts."

"His story is well known in the magic world..." Matthew scratched Fufu's chin, which was already very close to Matthew. "Eleven years ago, another great wizard in the wizarding world wanted to destroy the world to create his utopia... No jinxes, no massacres, just a terrible disaster befalls, rivers dried up, land cracked, Muggles and wizards alike Death. There's nothing the Ministry can do about it, it's not like a spell, it's really the end of the world."

"There was a white band of light in the sky, and then the magic fog spread. The poisonous gas in the fog is fatal to Muggles, and wizards can only rely on magic to survive. My mother died in this disaster." Matthew Narrating calmly, "The disaster made the wizards realize that they are no different from Muggles, and that they are all ordinary people... Later, Merlin found Solomon, the culprit of everything. It is said that they fought for three days and three nights, and finally Merlin killed him with a sword. Some people said that he used the Avada Kedavra Curse, and some said that Merlin tortured Solomon to death with Cruciatus and other curses. After all, everything was restored. The Ministry of Magic invited Merlin to take up the post several times, but he refused. No, he chose to stay at Hogwarts."

No one spoke for a while, and Romani silently watched the wheat fields fly by outside the window.Matthew felt that the topic he was talking about was too heavy, so he took out the food in his box and shared it with Romani.

"Let's try the pie! Well, don't eat this mashed potato, my uncle can't cook well..."

They bought a lot of snacks sold on the train. Romani found a small card of Merlin in the chocolate frog, and Merlin on the card winked at him.

"You and Merlin are really destined!" Matthew said enviously, "His cards are very rare. My neighbor bought several boxes of chocolate frogs and didn't eat his cards...Darius III, I have them all. Four of his cards."

"Is the one you mentioned, Solomon, among these cards?"

"It was originally there." Matthew thought for a while, "It was removed later, how could there be a bad wizard in the card."

Romani nodded, "I didn't expect Professor Merlin to be such a powerful person..."

"Don't be stressed," Matthew comforted him, "I heard from my aunt that he is... a very easy-going person."

"It's true, he treated me very well." Romani became happy again, "Do you know the situation at Hogwarts?"

"Well, Hogwarts is divided into four houses..."

An hour later the train started to slow down and they put on their Hogwarts robes over their clothes.

"We're going to Hogwarts." Matthew took a deep breath nervously, "Let's go."
