MTL - Harry Potter and the Badger Who Can’t Magic-Chapter 8 Auston's mood
The family went to the Leaky Cauldron and found a random clean place to sit down. Mr. Brown went to order food, Mrs. Brown chatted with Auston, and Sissy fiddled with her wand.
"Don't be discouraged by Auston, even if you can't become a wizard, you can be as successful as your father. Even if you don't know magic, you are still charming." Mrs. Brown looked at her husband's back with great longing.
"Don't worry, Mom, I'm not sad, it suits me so well, I can follow in Dad's footsteps and continue to live my ordinary life."
Mr. Brown came back with a plate of chips and quipped as if he caught them talking bad about themselves.
"What did you say behind my back?"
"Say you're very successful, Dad." Auston said sincerely looking into his dad's eyes.
Before the items they ordered were ready, Professor McGonagall and his party came out from the back door of the Leaky Cauldron.
Hermione stared at Auston as soon as she entered the door, looking like she was asking for evidence. If her mother hadn't held her hand, she would have rushed over already.
Professor McGonagall walked directly towards the table of Auston and the others. She glanced around, and then whispered something in Mrs. Brown's ear. Mrs. Brown nodded with an unpleasant expression and said to Professor McGonagall. thank
"Thank you, Professor McGonagall, for your trouble."
Then Professor McGonagall glanced at Oster with apologetic eyes, got up and left, and went to the table of the Granger family.
Sissi hurriedly stepped forward to ask her mother
"Mom, what did the professor say? Did the headmaster of Hogwarts reply?"
Mrs. Brown waved to Auston and took him to a pillar far away from the crowd. Seeing that his mother was not looking very well, Auston's psychology became clear.
said Mrs Brown in a low voice
"Auston, Professor McGonagall is here to apologize. She said that Albus Dumbledore did not expect this matter. Professor Dumbledore needs some time to solve this problem, and it will be done before ten days before the start of school. inform us."
Auston nodded and said nothing. Go straight back to his seat.
Sissi still reluctantly asked Auston what Professor McGonagall said to her mother.
Mom patted her little head lightly and said
"Baby, it's not the right place to talk about this topic. I'll tell you when I get home. Eat quickly. We'll have a lot of things to buy later."
Curious baby Qian Qian still wanted to ask more questions, but the topic was not suitable for discussion here. It was obviously related to her brother, so she obediently shut up.
Auston looked at the pies and puddings that were just served on the table. He had no appetite. He apologized to his family and left his seat.
Hermione, who had been staring at Auston, saw that he left without eating anything. She picked up two cheesecakes on the table and said something to her mother, and then followed.
Alston went out the door of the Leaky Cauldron and sat in a daze on the bench outside the record store. To be honest, he was very uncomfortable right now. Not long after he was born in this world, he knew that his mother was a wizard. There was an indescribable excitement. But later found out that he did not have magic, which made him depressed a lot. Just after he had accepted his fate for so many years, Hogwarts came with a notice. The family came to Diagon Alley with great anticipation to purchase, but this happened. It made Auston deeply feel that he had been fooled. His mood was still a trivial matter. He deeply knew how much Mr. Brown expected him to study at Hogwarts. Although the Browns never mentioned it in front of their brothers and sisters, he He and Sissi both guessed that their family was cut off from the magic world, and they never even walked around with their relatives because their father was a Squib, which was the shackle that bound him for half his life, and now Auston was going to let him down again.
It's not a blessing for Sai Weng to lose his horse. Auston laughed at himself. Who knows if it's a good thing not to be able to enter Hogwarts, maybe he just avoided the cruel Dark Lord like this.
When he thought of Voldemort, Auston was a little worried about Sissi, that little girl's temperament might get entangled with the savior Harry Potter, no, even if he was just a squib, he must find a way to protect Sisi .
Hermione also followed Auston out of the door of the Leaky Cauldron. She looked around at the door and saw Auston on the bench next to her.
She also sat down on the bench next to Auston, gave him the cake in her hand, smiled brightly at him,
"Although I don't know what the squib means, I guess you must be feeling bad right now. When you're feeling bad, you have to eat enough to have the strength to be happy."
Auston's black eyes looked at Hermione, one of the three protagonists in the future, with tousled hair and a little freckles on her face, her front teeth looked bigger against the surrounding baby teeth, and she couldn't see her in the future. There is also an amazing side.
Auston took the cake and forced a smile
"Thank you, you are so kind."
Hermione blushed slightly, bit the cheesecake in her hand, and silently accompanied him on the bench.
In the afternoon, the Browns wanted to buy the rest of the things for Sissy. Auston insisted not to buy his share. He expressed that he wanted to stay at the Leaky Cauldron and wait for them. Thinking of what happened in Ollivander in the morning, the Browns didn't force him, and gave him a few Galleons to take care of himself.
The Granger family had already bought Hermione's wizard robes and wands in the morning, and she could buy the rest even if she didn't go. She also expressed that she was tired of shopping and wanted to stay at the Leaky Cauldron and wait for them.
Mr. Granger's face was full of disbelief. After receiving the Hogwarts notice, she was the most excited in the family, and now she has voluntarily given up visiting Magic Street.
In the end, the Grangers went to Diagon Alley with the Browns.
Hermione, who was left at the Leaky Cauldron, still sat quietly beside Auston as at noon.
Auston was also very helpless. The little girl decided that he was very sad now, and he had clearly adjusted his mood. Now it's like he needs comfort a lot, and she obviously doesn't know how to comfort people. It's embarrassing to sit like this, ma'am! Auston thought to himself. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
After a long silence, Auston spoke first.
"Where's your wand?"
Hermione was taken aback by his question.
"Wand? In the pocket, what's wrong?"
Auston winked at her mischievously
"Don't want to try your new wand?"
"But I don't know any spells..." Hermione touched her pocket crampedly, suddenly thinking of the dazzling light she saw in front of Ollivander's front door and window, she raised her head suddenly, and asked in surprise, "Is it true?" Say...you will?"
Auston smiled meaningfully, instead of answering directly, he just said "Guess what?"
——————
Throughout the afternoon, the two began a magical exchange
"No, no, Animagus doesn't want to change anything, it can only change into an animal, and once the form of Animagus is discovered, it won't be able to hide itself." This is Auston's voice.
Even more exaggerated, Hermione sat in the small chair and looked at Auston with admiration, while taking notes quickly in her hands.
"Actually, when you practice Animagus, people may become obsessed. For example, if you try to become a bird and fail to succeed, it is very likely that some parts of your body will not change back, maybe Your hand will become a bird's paw."
Hermione frowned and grinned, obviously imagining something bad. Auston continued
"So the Ministry of Magic has strict control over it, requiring that all Animagus creatures and traits must be registered with the Ministry of Magic's Office of Misuse of Magic, and by the way, so is the witch, Professor Minerva McGonagall, who meets your family. An Animagus, her Animagus form is a cat."
