A certain Hogwarts magical cat

Chapter 8 Departure, to London
"I don't need bursaries. Recently, some kind people donated some money to our orphanage. It should be enough to pay the tuition fees, but"

When Strong heard about the bursary, he quickly interjected,

Now that the orphanage has money, she doesn't want Alice to use the stipend to go to school, because she knows that the word "stipend" may have some bad influence on Alice's school life.

Professor McGonagall could see that Strong still had some doubts about the unknown Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
This situation is also normal. After all, not every pair of Muggle parents has a big heart.

But Professor McGonagall is not worried about this situation, because she knows that such parents are most concerned about the safety of their children.

So she told Ms. Strong very clearly that if Alice could not go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to learn how to correctly guide the magical power in her body that gradually awakened with age, it might cause great harm to herself and the people around her, and even die.

It is uncertain whether it is dangerous to go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, but if you don't go, you will die, and Ms. Strong has no further opinions.

Seeing that Strong, the Muggle guardian, finally agreed to Alice's admission, Professor McGonagall began to guide some pre-enrollment preparations,
For example, the location of Diagon Alley, how to buy some necessities before entering school, platform nine and three-quarters, Hogwarts express train, etc.,
Compared with Hagrid's carefree personality, the rigorous Professor McGonagall explained every detail that should be paid attention to clearly, because she knew that a little wizard who grew up in a Muggle environment did not know many common sense things.

And Charlie, who had been lying next to Ellie, also pricked up his ears, listening carefully to Professor McGonagall's introduction about the wizarding world,
Although he had seen a Sorcerer's Stone in his previous life and heard a lot of related things from the elder sister, it has been some time after all. If he wants to enter the dangerous world of wizards, he must understand it more carefully.
half an hour later,

Professor McGonagall stood up,

"That's all for details. I'm going to visit the next student's parent, and I won't be here soon!"

The next student she was going to visit was Hermione Granger, and the appointment time on the admission letter was ten o'clock, and it was almost time now.

Hogwarts students are roughly divided into two types each year,
One is a young wizard who grew up in a wizarding family environment. After receiving the admission notice, the wizard at home will send a reply letter to the school before July 7, and the school teachers do not need to worry about it.

The other type is young wizards who grew up in a Muggle family environment. They have nothing to do with wizards, and most of them just regard the admission notice as a prank.

This requires the teachers of the school to visit one by one to prove and convince these Muggle parents.

"I'm really thankful for you!"

Strong quickly got up and thanked Professor McGonagall,
Professor McGonagall nodded slightly, then looked at Alice and the very honest Charlie who had been lying next to her and said:
"It seems that you don't need to buy a magic pet when you go to Diagon Alley, you already have a very good phantom cat!"

When Charlie walked into the living room just now, Professor McGonagall had already felt the weak magic fluctuations in his body, and immediately recognized Charlie's identity, a phantom cat,

But she wasn't too surprised,
Although the phantom cat is a magical creature, it has a very docile personality. Compared with ordinary cats, it is faster and has almost zero danger. It is a very common magic pet.

Moreover, this magical pet is not only sold in the pet shop in Diagon Alley, but also occasionally seen in the Muggle world.

It is not surprising that Alice, as a little wizard with magical blood, can attract magical pets like phantom cats,
"Charlie! Magic pet phantom cat?"

Alice immediately hugged Charlie, staring at her big round eyes, showing the original expression,
She has always thought that Charlie is a different and heart-warming cat. After all, she has never seen a kitten as powerful as Charlie, who can catch many prey bigger than itself, and is extremely smart.

In fact, magic pets like phantom cats are much stronger than ordinary cats in terms of strength and speed, but they are not as exaggerated as Charlie is now.
The reason why Charlie has strength close to that of a human and a faster speed than ordinary phantom cats has a lot to do with his continuous stance practice every day, using the special breathing method of the tiger shape among the twelve Xingyi shapes to strengthen and stretch his muscles.

Professor McGonagall did not explain too much, and gestured to Strong again, waved his wand in his hand,
"Apparition!"

Accompanied by a piercing sound of "pop", Professor McGonagall disappeared from the living room.

Breaking free from Alice's embrace, Charlie watched as Professor McGonagall disappeared, and a strange expression appeared on the cat's face. If you look carefully, it should be similar to the expression of "longing".

A "desire" for the power of magic!
The next morning, at the train platform in the southeast direction of Greentown,
Ms. Strong took Sophia's four radish heads and stood outside a train window. She asked Alice, who poked her head out of the window with Charlie in her arms:

"Be careful on the road. Get off at King's Cross Station. Don't miss the stop. After getting off, take the subway. Come back early after shopping."

"Don't worry, grandma dean, with Charlie by my side, everything will be fine!"

Alice lifted Charlie in her arms and smiled confidently.

Ms. Strong, who has always been gentle, raised her right fist in a rare way, and shouted fiercely at Charlie:
"Charlie, if anyone dares to bully Alice, just scratch him hard!"

"Scratch him, scratch him!"

The four little radish heads shouted loudly.

"Meow!"

Charlie raised his right paw in response, indicating that he knew.

After Professor McGonagall left yesterday, Ms. Strong discussed with Alice about going to Diagon Alley to buy school necessities.
Due to the early departure of her husband and son, Ms. Stella was overly sad, so it can be said that her physical condition has not been very good. Due to a cold these days, she has no ability to take Alice to London by train, and she has to take care of four little carrot heads.
So in the end, I could only decide to let Alice take the money and go to London with Charlie, and go to Diagon Alley to buy the necessities for admission.

Fortunately, although Alice is only 11 years old, because of her childhood living environment, she is more mature than her peers, and Ms. Strong took Alice to London when she was in good health.
In addition, there is also a magic phantom cat with very strong combat effectiveness, so the problem is not too big.
