Harry Potter and the Old Ones

Two months passed quickly.

In order to meet the upcoming thrilling Hogwarts life, Tierra quit her job as a receptionist in a Chinese restaurant.

To tell the truth, Tierra really couldn't open her mouth to the kind couple who helped her in the most difficult time, so she just told the truth.

It’s just a bit difficult to explain, even though Tierra showed the couple the Hogwarts admission letter and her own abilities such as floating spells, flashing spells, and flame spells, the kind Chinese aunt and the honest and honest Chinese man He was also worried, and insisted on accompanying Tierra to meet the gamekeeper Hagrid on July 31st.

However, Tierra rejected it righteously. Hagrid was a half-giant, nearly three meters tall, and furry like a big brown bear.

Back then, watching Tierra demonstrate the Levitation Curse and Fire Curse scared them out of a heart attack, but they were saved by Tierra's ability to curse worms.

Whenever Hagrid, who was like a big bear kid, did something out of the ordinary, Tierra had to save it again.

Although Tierra rejected the couple's proposal, it still made him feel very warm.

In fact, Tierra knew what this Chinese couple was thinking. The poor couple’s child died young. After getting along with each other in the past few years, they have already regarded Tierra as their own child. If it wasn’t for Tierra’s constant Respectful but distant, the couple may have made a formal adoption request.

But in Tierra's heart, his parents are still alive, in another parallel world.

"Knock knock knock" came the rapid and heavy knock on the door from the first floor of the small building, looking down from the window of the attic where Tierra was, a furry giant and a thin little boy could be seen.

"Hi, is there anyone? I'm Hagrid, the gamekeeper at Hogwarts. Is Tiera Witch at home?"

"Please wait a moment!" Tierra yelled from the attic, and then quickly ran downstairs.

"Hello, you must be Tiera Witch, right? I'm Rubis Hagrid, the gamekeeper at Hogwarts, this little wizard, and this is Harry Potter, your classmate." The furry sea Ge Wen said in a low voice, and at the same time turned his body sideways, revealing a Harry Potter following him.

"Hello Hagrid, hello Harry!" Said I, Tierra stepped forward and gave Hagrid a hug, and then Harry.

Although Hagrid was a gamekeeper, he didn't have any stench on his body. Instead, there was a faint scent of leather, grass and gasoline.

And Harry smelled of licorice, cake, and a little sweat.

Harry seemed very unaccustomed to this kind of hug, he seemed to stiffen when he made physical contact with Tierra, but he hugged back mechanically.

After feeling Harry's discomfort, Tierra let go of the hug silently.

Take a good look at Harry.

Harry looks like Daniel Radcliffe in the movie, but he is thinner and shorter than him in the movie, wearing long sleeves and canvas pants that have been worn out, and his hair is messy like weeds Generally, the glasses on the bridge of the nose are also a little distorted, as if they have been hit frequently.

"Hello, Tierra, I was supposed to take you guys shopping in Diagon Alley, but...um...but it's kind of late, can you let us stay for a night? I don't need a bed, there is enough A large open space is enough...I'm really sorry, I planned to take you to Diagon Alley this afternoon, but...Uncle Harry moved to a small island, and it was too difficult to find there, so it was delayed until now."

"No problem." Tierra replied happily. He had expected this situation a long time ago. No matter in the movie or the novel, Hagrid took Harry away in the middle of the night, and Diagon Alley was open during the day, so Hagrid and Harry were sure to find a way to sleep outside for the night.

Normally, they should have spent time on the sofa at the Dursleys' house or in the guest room at the Leaky Cauldron, but because there was an extra Tierra to pick him up, there was a high probability that Hagrid would ask to stay overnight.

Anyway, in the perception of most wizards, an unoccupied Muggle house is equal to a free hotel.

After Tierra agreed, Hagrid took Harry into Tierra's small building on his own.

Harry was still feeling a bit prim, but Hagrid made this place completely his home.

With a wave of the pink umbrella in his hand, he lit the fireplace on the first floor, took off his wet fur coat and spread it on the ground in front of the fireplace.

"I'll just sleep here, can you find a bed for Harry? Poor little Harry has been sleeping on the couch at the damn Dursley's for days."

"No problem." Tierra took Harry's hand and said, "You can sleep with me, my bed is in the attic, it's very big."

"Uh...but, will this...affect you?" He asked a little awkwardly.

Harry has always lived in the shadow of his cousin Dursley, never had such close contact with people outside of being bullied, and never received any kindness from his peers, this kind of kindness It made Harry feel awkward and warm at the same time.

"My bed is big." Tierra continued to release her kindness, "You don't have to worry about affecting me. I grew up in an orphanage. My parents were killed by bad guys. The orphanage and children my age have been bullying me. Me, I'm so glad to meet a friend like you... um... we're friends, right?"

"Me too!" Harry almost yelled out, the restraint and unfamiliarity when they first met seemed to disappear in an instant, facing this boy whose experience was very similar to his own, Harry felt a certain empathy that moved him.

If Harry were Tierra, he would know that this kind of emotion is called friendship empathy.

In an unfamiliar environment, people are more inclined to choose people who have similar experiences to make friends with them. Building the initial topic with their own shared experiences can help break the awkward atmosphere when they first meet.

This kind of friendship empathy is useless in adult social situations, because even if there is no common topic between adults, awkward chats can also come out.

But this friendship empathy is very useful for children.

This is a little skill that Tierra summed up when she was an intern teacher and took care of relatives' children. The empathy built by similar experiences helps to narrow the distance between her and her children.

Now Harry is a child who lacks love, um... it should be said that he is a rich child who lacks love.

Although it's embarrassing to say it, Tierra is really short of money. Whether it's the follow-up Hellis Potion, Hydra Poison, or Scorpion-tailed Snake Gallbladder, a certain amount of financial support is needed.

Merlin, at this time he met the lonely, poor and helpless young local tyrant Potter.

"Ding——" Tierra seemed to hear Jin Jialong's passing voice ringing in her ears.
