save the bachelors

Chapter 4064 4066 [King's Cross Station]

"Thank you, Dad." Xiang Nan nodded, then walked forward and hugged Tobias.

"Go ahead." Tobias seemed unused to being so close to his son. He gently pushed him away and waved his hand.

Xiang Nan and his mother then used the Floo powder to come to the Leaky Cauldron.

"Wait here for a moment, I'll go change the money into Galleons." Irene said to Xiang Nan.

"No, I want to keep this money as a souvenir." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said.

This is not only a twenty-pound note, but also represents Tobias's love for his father. He wants to keep it as a souvenir.

"Good son." Irene nodded touched when she heard him say that.

The two then walked out of the Leaky Cauldron and took a bus to King's Cross Station.

Today I changed trains at the Leaky Cauldron, and there were quite a few wizards heading to the station. There were more than twenty on the train Xiang Nan was on.

Some of them were carrying huge suitcases, some were carrying cages with all kinds of animals in them, such as cats, mice, toads, owls, and some were even carrying brooms (actually flying brooms).

Plus, they all dressed strangely, many in long robes, cloaks, and pointed hats, which looked awkward no matter how you looked at them.

This surprised the Muggle driver and passengers on the bus, who suspected that they had encountered a group of eccentric hippies, so many passengers got off the bus before reaching their stop.

……

After arriving at King's Cross Station, they went straight to Platform 9.

Platform nine and three quarters is right next to the wall between platforms nine and ten. Just walk in when the Muggles aren't noticing.

However, Xiang Nan did not rush in, but waited there for a while.

Finally, at half past ten, a train from Devon arrived at the station, and the Evans family got off the train.

"Lily, this way~" Xiang Nan waved and shouted. Although the station was crowded, his voice still reached Lily's ears clearly.

"Severus~" Lily ran over happily, Robin and Mary helped her carry her luggage, and Penny followed behind her.

"Let's go, let's go into the station." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Follow me."

Lily nodded.

Xiang Nan pushed the luggage cart and walked straight towards the ticket gate between platforms 9 and 10.

His eyes flashed before he saw a beautiful steam locomotive with the words "Hogwarts Express" engraved on its nose.

The smoke from the steam locomotives swirled above the chattering crowd, and cats of all colors darted around under people's feet. Amid the buzzing of the crowd and the noise of dragging heavy luggage, owls also hooted harshly, one calling out to the other.

"Wow~" At this time, the Evans family also walked into Platform 9 3/4. Seeing this magical scene before them, they exclaimed again, feeling it was really incredible.

They have been to London many times, but they never knew that there was such a platform hidden in King's Cross Station. It was really amazing.

"Take this time to say goodbye to your family, the train officially leaves at 11 o'clock." Xiang Nan said to Lily, then walked aside with Irene.

"Son, I will miss you." Irene said to Xiang Nan.

"Mom, me too." Xiang Nan nodded, "I will write to you, don't worry about me, I will live well, no one can bully me."

"I know." Irene nodded.

Her son could cast spells without a wand and defeat adult wizards before he even started formal school, so she had confidence in him. "Try to make as many friends as possible," Irene urged. "When you grow up, you'll know that friends are precious."

When she was studying at Hogwarts, she didn't make many friends because of her gloomy personality and unsociable nature, so now when she wants to talk to someone, no one responds.

She didn't want her son to grow up to be as lonely, depressed and gloomy as she was.

"I understand, Mom." Xiang Nan agreed.

"Great, get in the car and find a good seat." Irene nodded.

"I want to wait for Lily to get in the car together." Xiang Nan waved his hand.

Irene was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly, "She's a good girl, you have good taste."

Xiang Nan nodded.

……

Lily said goodbye to her parents and sister at the station.

"Don't worry, Dad and Mom. I can take care of myself." She said to her parents, "And there is Severus, he will help me too."

"Penny, I will send you a letter. I will also send you magic cakes. I heard that the cakes at Hogwarts are cooked by house-elves and are very delicious." She said to her sister Petunia again.

Penny smiled and nodded.

After listening to Xiang Nan's popular science, she was no longer so longing for the magical world.

Because although magic is magical, it cannot bring wealth, fame, status and a comfortable life.

The population of the entire British wizarding world is smaller than the population of Cokeworth. Even if he becomes the Minister of Magic, the population he manages is only tens of thousands, which is less powerful than the mayor of Cokeworth.

Moreover, magic cannot create coins, so wizards also need to work, and even overtime is common. And wizards' wages are very low. Even if they are professors at Hogwarts, their monthly salary is still no more than 200 Galleons, which is less than 1,000 pounds in total, which is not as high as Robin Evans' monthly salary.

Moreover, the wizarding world also has a legal system, and people cannot cast magic at will, otherwise they will be imprisoned in Azkaban prison and their souls may be sucked away by Dementors at any time.

Therefore, in Penny's opinion, the magical world is not worth her yearning at all. On the contrary, she will meet the man she loves, give birth to a healthy child, and live a rich and prosperous life in the future.

So she yearned for her own love more than adventure in the magical world.

Therefore, she was not jealous of her sister, but felt a little sympathy for her. She felt that because of her talent, she had to live in another world, otherwise she would become a monster and kill everyone in the city.

……

"Hello, Mrs. Snape~" The Evans family came to Xiang Nan and his mother, "Severus, Lily will be in your care from now on."

"Don't worry, uncle and aunt, I will." Xiang Nan nodded.

"Thank you." Robin and Mary nodded. "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"You're welcome." Irene said calmly, and then told her son, "Hurry up and get on the bus. Find a good compartment, otherwise there may be no seats left."

All the students from the first to seventh grade of Hogwarts took this train back to school. There were about three hundred students from the first to seventh grade in total.

The Hogwarts Express is not very big, with only four carriages, so there is a possibility that you may not be able to find a seat or have to squeeze with others.

"Go ahead." Robin and Mary also urged their daughter.

"I will miss you." After hugging her parents and sister, Lily got into the car with Xiang Nan.
