Drink Black Tea Calmly at Hogwarts

Chapter 99: Grandpa, I Burned the Newspaper for You

"What is this aircraft carrier?"

One month after the Battle of the Yellow Sea, in a guest room of Deng Shichang's home, Deng Shichang was receiving a brainstorming session from Zhang Xu.

After Zhang Xu helped the Zhiyuan to sink the Yoshino in the naval battle that day, he fainted on the spot due to too much mental load, and was rescued by the alchemist sent by Zhao Lao.

Zhang Xu woke up half a month later.

Zhang Xu, who claimed to have stayed abroad with his family in the early years and recently returned to China to serve the Qing Dynasty, was taken home by Deng Shichang for training.

In the next half month, Zhang Xu continued to instill in Deng Shichang the development direction of the future navy.

Zhang Xu couldn't confirm whether he was teleported to the same world, so he left some clues that he only knew from the beginning.

After he recovered, Zhang Xu found an excuse to say goodbye to Deng Shichang.

A few days later, in Beijing in the middle of the night, Zhang Xu secretly came to the place where the Monument to the People's Heroes of the Future was located, dug a hole two or three meters deep in the ground, and took the gift he got when he used the time converter for the third time—a piece of The jade seal engraved with the words "Ordered by the heavens will last forever" was buried with gold. Then he brushed off his clothes and left, hiding his achievements and fame, and left again using the time-turner.

This time when Zhang Xu arrived at the station, he looked confused, because he knew this place very well, and it was the family cemetery of their Zhang family.

At this time, a voice came from not far away.

"Grandpa, rest in peace. The Chinese team has finally won the World Cup. I will burn the newspaper to you, old man. You can be happy down here."

Zhang Xu turned on the stealth and walked towards the direction of the sound, only to see a handsome and personable middle-aged man who had inherited his grandfather's merits at a glance, standing in front of a tombstone and preparing to light some newspapers.

On the tombstone, Zhang Xu's name was engraved.

Zhang Xu, who didn't know what expression to make, waited for his grandson to leave, sowed weeds on his grave, and then left.

After several time travels, Zhang Xu finally adjusted the time converter and returned to the beginning of the first game of the Quidditch season in November 1993.

As a result, Zhang Xu suffered an unprecedented backlash this time. He had no strength in his whole body, and his head was in chaos.

After resting for a while and drinking two bottles of medicine that relied on overdrawing his body for treatment, Zhang Xu's body barely stabilized.

At this moment, Zhang Xu saw that the dementors had already started to drift towards the Quidditch pitch.

It was only then that Zhang Xu thought embarrassingly that he didn't bring a broomstick with him now. The broom he was carrying had been lent to Snape and Lupine "before".

In the end, Zhang Xu still used the transformation technique, turning himself into a swallow, and flew towards the Quidditch field.

When Zhang Xu flew over the Quidditch field in the strong wind, he finally realized the greatness of Gorky's "Petrel".

Soon, Harry Potter turned into a balloon flew past Zhang Xu, and Zhang Xu turned into a swallow could only hold Harry Potter's robe tightly with his claws.

Because there is no broomstick, Zhang Xu can only follow Harry, and wait until he lands with him before sending out a signal.

Zhang Xu just flew with Harry in the sky for an hour. The Levitation Curse on Harry's body has not yet begun to dissipate, and Zhang Xu has already consumed more than half of him in order to maintain the transformation, relying on drinking medicine and overdraft to replenish of mana.

Seeing that going on like this was not an option, Zhang Xu decided to take a risk.

When an updraft blew them high into the sky, Zhang Xu canceled the transformation technique, held Harry under his arm with one hand in the air, and let himself and Harry fall downward.

Harry, who was wearing the levitation spell, was like a balloon, which slowed down the falling speed as Zhang Xu expected.

When the two of them were two to three hundred meters away from the ground, Zhang Xu quickly cast several floating spells on himself,

It was safely lowered to the ground.

Just when Zhang Xu just hit the ground, a wave of dizziness hit him and almost made him fall.

Suppressing the dizziness, he took out a rope from the treasure bag, and tied Harry Potter, who was still unconscious and floating, to the tree like a balloon, and then Zhang Xu fired a large signal flare into the sky. Then passed out.

The news of Zhang Xu waking up quickly spread, and Harry ran over to thank him immediately, followed by other students and professors.

But at this moment, Zhang Xu fell into a deep sleep again without even eating lunch after drinking the medicine Madam Pomfrey sent because of using the time-turner to counterattack and overdraw his magic power.

When Zhang Xu woke up from hunger, it was already dark.

"You're awake, are you hungry?" A voice sounded beside Zhang Xu's hospital bed.

Hearing this voice, Zhang Xu immediately had the urge to faint again.

At this moment, Zhang Xu's hungry stomach gurgled.

Zhang Xu struggled to sit up. Although he had regained some energy, his physical strength had not yet recovered.

Scarlet sighed, and used the Flying Curse to bring some pillows from the empty hospital bed next to him, then helped Zhang Xu up, and then used the pillows to cushion his back so that he could sit up.

Then Scarlet heated a bowl of oatmeal with milk on the bedside table with magic, and fed Zhang Xu with a spoon to eat.

There was no light in the ward, only moonlight came in through the window, and it happened to shine on the two of them.

The two of them just fed the other and no one was talking.

After feeding Zhang Xu a bowl of oatmeal with milk, Scarlet put down the bowl and wiped the corners of Zhang Xu's mouth with a towel.

After packing up her things, Scarlet sat on Zhang Xu's hospital bed, staring at Zhang Xu. But Zhang Xu couldn't bear her gaze, and wanted to turn his head to look away.

As soon as Zhang Xu turned his head, Scarlet stretched out his right hand, grabbed Zhang Xu's left cheek, and pulled his face back.

After turning Zhang Xu's face back, Scarlett didn't take back his right hand, but stretched his hand forward, and gently stroked the half-missing earlobe of Zhang Xu's left ear with his fingers.

When the Zhiyuan was about to collide with the Yoshino, a Japanese warship's artillery shell hit the position near the bridge of the Zhiyuan, and a piece of shrapnel cut off half of Zhang Xu's drooping earlobe on his left ear.

Zhang Xu's familiar face, his injured left ear, and his use of a time-turner combined together three pieces of evidence, and Scarlet concluded that Zhang Xu was the person she met fourteen years ago.

Fourteen years ago, the Death Eaters went to Hong Kong to exterminate the Scarlet family.

In order to protect the safety of her family, Scarlett alone led away the Death Eaters that day. As a result, when she was surrounded, someone, like the hero in the movie, stepped forward to rescue her at the last moment.

Afterwards, Scarlet followed the person who called himself "Nie Feng" and dealt with the Death Eaters in the suburbs for several days, until the official reinforcements from Huaxia arrived and pressed the Death Eaters to the ground and rubbed them.

"Tell me, what should I call you?"

Scarlet's voice was a little cold.

"Did I call you Zhang Xu? Or Bu Jingyun?"

"..." Zhang Xu broke into a cold sweat.

"Who is Nie Feng?"

"My Father."

"No wonder he rejected me at the time, saying that he was going to be a father. It's all your fault, can I strangle you?"

"cannot……"

"Why was it not you who carried me away when the two of you rushed out to save me together?"

"I'm only thirteen years old, can you hug me?"
