I’m Really An Alchemist
Chapter 253:
"No problem!" the musician replied with a smile.
Harry raised his head in disbelief.
"I'm going to be a professor of music at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. As long as you are willing to enroll in my course, you can continue to study music with me."
"Hogwarts..." Harry's eyes widened and he stammered.
He couldn't imagine that this respected musician was also a wizard.
The musician said, "Harry, I heard that you gave up the chance to go to Hogwarts because of your family?"
Harry Potter wakes up.
He described the death of his parents at the hands of wizards, and the Dursley family's disgust for wizards. Harry Potter rarely received the care of his relatives. He didn't want to lose this warmth because of magic.
"Harry, what do you think magic is?"
The musician said: "Full of unknowns, full of fantasy, you can do things that technology can't do today, why not try to resurrect your parents?"
"Can magic do it?" Harry asked in surprise.
"It can't be done at the moment." Zhou Qi winked his eyes: "But we should believe in the potential of magic. As long as we work hard in this direction, one day we will get what we want. You also want to know what your parents are like. people?"
Harry Potter, who only knew his parents from his aunt's mouth, fell silent.
He silently ended the class, got into his uncle's car in silence, and returned to No. 4, Privet Road.
"You want to go to Hogwarts?"
Aunt Penny, who was ironing clothes, didn't seem to be surprised. She put down the iron, hugged Harry gently, and sighed: "Since then, I have been thinking about this matter, I refused you to enter the magic world, right? Lily's jealousy?"
"Harry, you and my sister have similar personalities. When you received the letter from Hogwarts, it reminded me of how Lily received the letter back then."
Uncle Vernon rarely refused.
The couple had discussed Harry's affairs early in the night, and they could see that Harry declined the invitation to Hogwarts because of their reasons.
They didn't want Harry to regret it later.
Harry hugged his family.
He went back to the room, wrote the letter, affixed it with a Hogwarts stamp, and dropped it into the mailbox.
Hogwarts' reaction was faster than expected. Early the next morning, someone knocked on the door of Dursley's house. Dudley stayed away from the dining table in dissatisfaction. When he opened the door, he was startled by the giant outside.
"Hey, Harry!"
The giant with a beard and a fur coat squeezed into the room sideways, hugging Dudley enthusiastically.
"The last time I saw you, you were still so small, and now....greatly strong!" The giant patted Dudley's shoulder and laughed heartily.
Dudley screamed, "I'm not Harry!"
Harry Potter walked out of the house, and the giant immediately changed his target.
"Harry, I know it's you. You look exactly like your father." The giant Hagrid dropped his umbrella and said, "Come on, I'll take you to Diagon Alley to buy a wand. Every wizard should have a good wand. OK."
The Dursleys came out carefully and looked at the half-giant in awe.
"Honey, you go get some pounds for Harry." Vernon raised his chest, propping up the owner's face in front of the half-giant.
Hagrid said: "No, Harry's parents left him a lot of property. Oh, but you are a very good Muggle. I like it very much."
Vernon-Dursley twitched the corners of his mouth, but couldn't be more happy.
.....
"Hello, Mr. Ivan."
An elegant lady in a green robe and a high hat, took off her hat and put it on her chest, doing an old English etiquette, and said with a straight face, "I'm the Vice-Principal of Hogwarts, Gryffindor House. Chief - Minerva McGonagall, I will take you to Diagon Alley to buy magic items."
The musician who was having breakfast looked up at this old but elegant woman.
"Don't you wizards like to go through the main entrance?" He reluctantly raised his breakfast: "Today we have invited a Spanish chef, authentic Valencia seafood risotto and Liberian dried ham, do you want to come together?"
Professor McGonagall hesitated.
She pulled out the chair and sat down gracefully, with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "Then I'm welcome."

One more chapter, night
Chapter 366 Chapter 9 Hogwarts
Charing Cross Road, Wilmington.
This street is a famous bookstore street in London. There are second-hand bookstores and antique stores on the left and right sides. It is very literary and one of the most popular attractions for tourists.
"Why do you set the entrance and exit of the magic world at tourist attractions?"
"It's not that we set the entrance and exit of the magic world here." Professor McGonagall explained patiently: "The history of the Leaky Cauldron is much longer than this street. We didn't expect that it would become a tourist attraction."
Chat room.
The destination has arrived.
A dirty and dilapidated tavern was inserted incongruously between the record store and the bookstore. When Professor McGonagall approached, the white and dirty tavern sign showed the word Leaky Cauldron.
"Professor McGonagall!"
The bald and toothless bar owner Tom stepped forward happily, "It's been a long time since we saw each other, you are still so beautiful."
The gatekeeper of the magical world passed over Professor McGonagall and stared at Zhou Qi.
"Is this Baron Ivan?" Tom screamed in surprise after watching it for a long time: "Oriental people all look the same in my eyes, forgive me for not recognizing you the first time!"
As the bar owner screamed, the wizards in the Leaky Cauldron stopped what they were doing and looked over.
The wizards are very excited. What a good day today, I only saw the savior Harry Potter during the day, and now I see the Muggle musician who caused a storm in the wizarding world.
Except for a few fans, most wizards are still very reserved.
They had goodwill towards Zhou Qi, and there were people who offered to lead musicians to witness the magical world. Fortunately, Professor McGonagall stopped these excited wizards, otherwise Zhou Qi would not know when he would be able to enter Diagon Alley.
"Now do you know what happened to you?"
Professor McGonagall was very helpless.
She refused the enthusiastic help of the wizards, went to the fence of the backyard of the bar, and took out the wand from the large sleeve.
"Count three above the trash can, then two across...three taps." She explained how to get into Diagon Alley: "But you have to use a wand to get into Diagon Alley, Mr. Ivan, if you need to. What to buy, it's best to buy it all at once, I don't want to accompany you to come a second time."
The bricks tumbled like building blocks, a small hole appeared, and then it became bigger and bigger, and a wide archway appeared in front of me, leading to a cobblestone street.
"Magic is really cool." Zhou Qishi exclaimed in admiration.
Professor McGonagall pursed her lips, a little complacent.
The two set foot on Diagon Alley, and the archway behind them gradually disappeared, and a strong atmosphere of life came over. The roads were filled with buildings with the flavor of the times, and countless wizards came and went.
"Hogwarts is about to start school, and this time happens to be the time for freshmen to buy school supplies."
Professor McGonagall is very popular in the wizarding world. People are always greeting her respectfully, and there are also many curious wizards who smile kindly at Zhou Qitou.
"Let's go to Gringotts first. Hogwarts gave you a month's salary in advance. You can also use Muggle currency to exchange gold Galleons, but there is a large exchange limit, and you can only exchange 10,000 per year. Sterling, or two thousand Galleons."
Wizards have little demand for Muggle currency, and they have countless ways to extract large amounts of cash from Muggle financial markets.
The reason for not doing this is that the law does not allow it, and the second is that wizards do not understand finance.
A snow-white building stands proudly in the wizard's shop, showing its uniqueness, with a shiny bronze door and goblin security in scarlet and gold uniforms.
Gringotts is the only bank in the wizarding world. It is controlled by goblins who are greedy for money. These pale green-skinned magical species similar to distant relatives goblins are extra sensitive to money.
In this world, wizards are not the top of the magic world.
Whether it is a house elf or a Gringotts goblin, these magical species with ancient heritage have magical abilities that are higher than wizards.
Gringotts is also known as the safest place outside of Hogwarts.
"Welcome, Professor McGonagall!"
The goblin's eyes lit up and she eagerly walked over: "Are you going to go through the withdrawal procedures? Come in quickly."
As it rolled its eyes, it landed on the musician, with a hint of contempt in its eyes: "This is... a Muggle, oh, is that the Muggle Baron, Professor McGonagall, why did Hogwarts recruit them? What about Muggles as professors?"
Fantastic Beasts do not have the aristocratic plot of humans.
"Mr. Ivan is a professor at Hogwarts." Professor McGonagall said calmly: "I have the right to reflect your service attitude to Gringotts. Hogwarts reserves the right to pursue responsibility."
The goblin suddenly panicked.
It discarded its pride, showed a flattering smile to Zhou Qi, and took the initiative to kneel down and wipe the dust on Zhou Qi's shoes.
"Professor Ivan, please forgive my rudeness." The goblin said in a shrill voice, "I can't lose this job."
Zhou Qi had no idea.
As Muggles are at the bottom of the chain of contempt in the magical world, this trend will not be changed for a while.
But there are still lessons to be taught.
The proud goblin security guard can only squat at the entrance of Gringotts with a bitter face, wipe the shoes for every customer who enters the door, and repent of his actions.
Gringotts goblin staff, although they also have disdain for Muggles, but their work is done flawlessly.
Zhou Qi opened an account at Gringotts and handled his own deposit bank. Hogwarts would remit his weekly salary to Gringotts, so he could deposit and withdraw at any time. He also used up this year's exchange quota in exchange for two thousand gold Galleons.
Prices in the wizarding world are quite low.
Two thousand gold Galleons is actually the income level of the upper class in the magic world.
At the suggestion of Professor McGonagall, Zhou Qi gave up the idea of buying magical creatures research, and gave up buying higher-end magic books. Magic books like this would have the original author's bad taste.
No one knows whether black magic or a curse will be cast on the book.
Although Zhou Qi didn't care, Professor McGonagall stopped him from committing suicide. She didn't want to see the Muggle professor invited by Hogwarts die for other reasons before he joined the job.
Holding a lot of elementary magic books, Zhou Qi bought a backpack loaded with the Traceless Stretch Spell, which made Professor McGonagall admire very much.
Hogwarts' salaries are not low, but not so much that they don't take money seriously.
"Do I need to buy a wand?"
Zhou Qi came to the door of Ollivander's wand shop. This shop has been making magic wands since 382 BC. It is a place where every wizard must set foot since he was a child. A magic wand is a tool used by wizards to control magic power. Everyone will only have one magic wand in their lifetime.
It is not the wizard who chooses the wand, but the wand that chooses the wizard.
Professor McGonagall shook his head and said, "The wand will not choose a Muggle without magic power, and Mr. Ollivander will not sell the wand to an ordinary person, no matter how much gold Galleon you are willing to pay."
Ollivander is one of the twenty-eight pure-blood families. Compared with the Malfoy family, it lacks the arrogance of the pure-blood wizard family.
But again, he wouldn't force his wand to sell.
Zhou Qi was not disappointed either, the magic books he had obtained so far were enough for him to carry out preliminary experiments.
As long as the magician's secret can be cracked, the magic wand is completely redundant. Except for the HP world, which magician in the multiverse cannot cast spells without a wand, and can't use magic without a wand, it is simply wonderful.
Wizards on the African continent only started using wands in modern times.
Before they had wands, these ancient wizards were all good at casting spells without wands.
The creation of the wand may be evidence that magic is declining.
Of course, this is also Zhou Qi's own guess, and he needs more experiments to verify this.
After sending the musicians out of Diagon Alley, Professor McGonagall only felt tired physically and mentally on this day, she said: "The opening day of Hogwarts is September 1st, but the school professor will return to Hogwarts a day earlier, and I will be at 8th. I'll pick you up on the 30th of the month."
Platform nine and three-quarters, the steam train to Hogwarts, only makes six round trips a year.
The beginning of school, the Christmas break, the Easter break, and the end of the school year.
No exceptions will be made because of people!
......
Time flies by exploring the mysteries of magic.
On August 30th, Zhou Qi checked his salute. A large number of research tools and magic books filled the seamless stretch backpack. He also carried a small suitcase, which was a small gift for Hogwarts students. .
