Chapter 2: The past of the Anderson family (2/2)
Principal of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry: Albus Dumbledore (President of the International Union of Magic, President of the Wizarding Association, First-Class Magician of Sir Merlin)
”Hogwarts... school!” Daisy stared in surprise, because she had already guessed what it was... an admission letter?
”Magic, is there really magic in this world?” Niya's face was filled with excitement, ”I want to learn magic too, I want to go to a magic school.”
”Hate Albert, let me go!” Niya looked at her brother very dissatisfied, she was going to go over to read the letter, but Albert stopped her.
”Niya, let my father finish my faith.” Albert motioned to his father to continue reading the letter, and took the angry mother to sit down by the way.
”Son, I will never let you go to Hogg...” Daisy was very angry. She thought her husband might know something.
Herb coughed slightly and continued reading:
Dear Mr. Anderson:
We are happy to inform you that you have been approved to study at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Enclosed is a list of required books and equipment.
The semester is scheduled to start on September 1. We will be waiting for your owl before July 21.
Yours sincerely, Minerva McGonagall, Vice Principal (Female).
Heber finished his faith, and then handed the letter to his son.
Albert glanced at it and handed it to his curious sister. Nya took the letter and ran to her mother Daisy.
After studying the content of the letter sentence by sentence, Daisy said every word:
”I would never agree to let Albert go to this kind of school. No, there must be someone playing on us. Maybe we should call the police right away and catch that pesky rascal.”
”Mom, did the owl waiting for you on the letter let us write back to them?” Niya said suddenly.
Daisy did not speak, but stared at her husband with oppressive eyes.
Albert asked, ”Dad, do you know something?”
”Not knowing.” Herb reached out his hand to his head, and seemed to be caught in a short memory: ”When I was about the same age as you, my father, that is, your grandfather, UU read to me. I was disappointed not to receive a letter from Hogwarts.”
”I once asked my father what Hogwarts was, and he only said that it was a school.”
”Later, once my father was drunk, I asked why he wanted me to go to Hogwarts.”
”He only said he was a dumb gun, but I don't know what the word means.” Herb's tone was very low, and he remembered that time when his father cried.
”I think, now I know what Hogwarts is. Father knows that his grandson has received a letter from Hogwarts, he will be very happy.”
Albert knows what dumb cannon means, of course, but he never really thought that he had something to do with a wizard.
In other words, there is no similar skill in his skill bar, otherwise he would have noticed it.
”Yes, I should write to him, no, call, he will definitely be very happy!” Herb suddenly said, as if planning to call his father.
”Heber Anderson!” Daisy exclaimed, ”Albert should go to Eton College. He will achieve something we can't imagine, instead of going to a school that we have never heard of, you know? Concerning his future, I will never allow you...”
”Mom, we have not yet determined whether magic exists.” Albert stretched out his hand to grab the mother who was about to run away, and softly comforted: ”Didn't the letter say the owl waiting for you? Maybe, we should write a letter to each other, let Then someone from Hogwarts school came to prove whether there is magic, if they can’t prove it, then it’s a lie.”
”Well, son, I agree with you, and let the **** school prove the truth of this letter.” Daisy clenched her fist and shook it vigorously. ”Wait and see, I must call the police. Catch those crooks and let them squat in prison for a few years.”
