"Special news?"

Stan scratched his big ears and said, "I don't know if you have heard that Nico Flamel declared that the Philosopher's Stone needs to be stored in a safer place.

The alchemist who lived for hundreds of years said that he was considering ending his long life and starting another adventure."

He smiled: "Many people think that he simply has had enough."

Enough?

Rosie rolled her eyes inwardly. She didn't think so. In her opinion, Nicolas Flamel was probably fishing with Dumbledore! As for the target, that was of course self-evident.

But she didn't intend to refute the other party. Instead, she said "hmm" and asked again: "Is there anything else?"

Stan scratched his cheek and wanted to show off in front of the beautiful woman, but he couldn't think of anything else worth mentioning.

At this time, the driver Ern reminded in a low voice: "Savior, Mr. Potter..."

"Oh, yes, there is also the famous savior. Judging from his age, it will be time for him to enter school in more than two months."

Stan spoke very quickly, "Many people are speculating that there is even an underground gambling bureau in Knockturn Alley."

"A bet?" Rossi raised his eyes in surprise, "What are you betting on?"

Stan lowered his voice and said:

"Betting on which house he will be sorted into, uh... I remember, the highest odds are Hufflepuff, five to one."

"No, the lowest odds are that he is a squib and won't be able to go to school. The odds are fifty to one." Ern retorted with a low smile. Obviously, he did not believe that Harry would be a squib.

"What about Gryffindor?"

Rossi suddenly became interested, "What are the odds?"

"Gryffindor is 1.5, Slytherin is 2.5, and Ravenclaw is 3.5."

I can't miss this kind of bet that guarantees profit without losing any money.

Rossi opened the system panel, looked at the huge number of Galleons on his body, and thought to himself.

Hmm... I just don't know how reputable the store that opens the gambling shop is.

I opened the newspaper casually, and the first article I read was: "Shocked! Curse or accident? The Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts was seriously injured and hospitalized."

"Pfft!"

Rosie couldn't help laughing.

Is this an invasion of the wizarding world by the Ministry of Shock?

Half leaning against the window, she slowly read the newspaper...

After an unknown amount of time, the bus suddenly swerved and stopped suddenly.

"We've arrived, miss."

Stan pointed in the direction and said, "Go out of the alley and turn left. You'll find the London Zoo."

"Thanks."

With a slight smile and a thank you to the two of them, Rossi jumped out of the opened car door lightly.

I waved goodbye and walked out of the alley. There were gradually more pedestrians and the street started to become noisy.

Even though the gate of the zoo is wide, it still seems extremely crowded when faced with the sea of ​​tourists.

But this is not a problem for Rossi.

With her agility and the magic of disillusionment, she naturally doesn't need to queue up to enter the park.

After looking at the map and calculating the time, Rosie, who estimated that Harry and the others had not arrived yet, stood at the entrance of the zoo, watching the gorilla trapped in the barbed wire begging for food while waiting patiently.

Not long after, she saw Harry walking into the park following the Dursleys.

At the ice cream truck at the entrance, Harry got a lemon-flavored popsicle.

It was obvious that the Dursleys would never be willing to spend more money on him if it wasn't for the sake of maintaining dignity in front of others.

"Harry! Follow us closely. If you get lost, we won't look for you."

Mr. Dursley stared at Harry, who was looking at the gorilla with a stupid smile on his face, with an unkind look.

After coming back from his imagination, Harry nodded hurriedly and licked the popsicle in his hand.

Dursley nodded with satisfaction, turned around and chased his family members who were walking in front.

Before Harry could catch up with them, Rosie walked up to Harry with a smile and greeted him warmly.

"Good morning, Mr. Harry Potter!"

Suddenly being approached by a stranger, Harry looked at her warily and doubtfully, then looked up at the sun that would soon be above his head:

"You know me? Who are you?"

"I am……"

After hesitating for two seconds, he swallowed the words "your mother's friend" and said, "I am Rosie, an Auror from the Ministry of Magic. Harry, do you need help or is there anything that makes you feel embarrassed?"

"Ministry of Magic? Auror?"

Harry repeated these two words and looked at Rosie with his green eyes funny, "Is the amusement park business so sluggish? Are you going to the zoo to promote it? Well, although I really want to go, but..."

He pointed to the Dursley family not far ahead: "Or you can try to sell them to them. If it succeeds, please find a way to get them to take me with them."

At this moment, the Dursleys saw that Harry had not followed for a long time and looked back:

"Harry! You bastard, get out of here!"

Shrugging, Harry licked the popsicle and walked quickly towards the Dursleys.

???

Rosie froze on the spot and looked up at Harry with a puzzled expression, but the other man followed behind the Dursleys without looking back.

Just think of me as a salesman at an amusement park, but what about the mission? Why is it not triggered?

Is it possible that I guessed wrong? This mission has nothing to do with Harry? It shouldn’t be! The system won’t teleport me to his home for no reason, right? If this is all a misleading, then this game is too screwed up!

Yes, if that's the case, and there are no clues at all, who can trigger the mission?

Hmm! Be patient, Rossi, maybe the mission won't start until he closes the python's glass window...

After comforting herself, she simply treated herself as an ordinary tourist and wandered around the zoo.

Sure enough, after dinner, when Harry witnessed Harry's magical power rioting and causing the glass in front of the Python cabinet to disappear, the system's voice rang:

"Stop pythons from killing people."

The prompt was very simple, and it didn't say whether it would trigger task one, but the prompt proved that she was on the right track.

In Rossi's impression, in the original work, there were no injuries, let alone any killings.

But in fact, when the giant python discovered that the glass blocking it had disappeared, it was stunned for only a second. Then, it flew up and bit Dudley's leg at the front.

This wasn't the end yet, at the same time, its long snake body rolled up and strangled the other boy tightly.

While the visitors to the reptile house were screaming and fleeing, Rosie walked up against the flow of people. When Harry was frightened and panicked and asked the boa constrictor to let him go in Parseltongue, she pulled out her wand and cast the transformation spell.

In an instant, the giant python shrank rapidly and turned into a giant salamander less than one meter long.

Dudley clutched the wound on his leg and screamed in pain, while the other boy cried in pain and gasped for air.

In Harry's shocked eyes, Rosie grabbed the baby fish by its tail and threw it back hard.

After using white essence to heal Dudley's leg injury, Rosie was about to talk to Harry when she saw two wizards, a man and a woman, apparating here.

They frowned and looked around. When they saw Rosie, the witch looked startled and then breathed a sigh of relief:

"Miss Rossi, you are here!"

She no longer had to worry about finding the child whose magic power exploded, which made her feel very happy: "Have you noticed which child's magic power is rioting?"

Are they from the Ministry of Magic? Know me...

What identity has the dungeon arranged for me this time? Well... I didn't even give any hints.

While thinking about it, Rosie pursed her lips and said sheepishly:

"Who are you? Sorry, because of an accident, my recent memory has been a bit confusing..."
