Chapter 10 10: Where the dream begins


Chapter 10 10: Where the dream begins

The city is shrouded in gauze.

On a hazy day in London, it’s like there are layers of gauze floating in the air.

On a quiet street.

Ian is still immersed in the sadness of parting.

Although I have always looked forward to truly learning magic, when I actually step out of the orphanage to study, I still feel reluctant to leave this place and the people here.

After all, this is the place where Ian lived for eleven years after traveling through time.

"Oh, it seems that Mr. Prince, you know how to please people."

Snape's voice broke the dull atmosphere. For some reason, it seemed like normal words. Coupled with his slow tone, it always makes people feel a strange and sinister atmosphere.

Ian did not respond.

He just dragged his suitcase behind Snape.

He is in a low mood now.

I don’t really want to spend time dealing with the professor in front of me. After all, for the potions master of Hogwarts, no matter how well-behaved a student is, he or she will not win their favor.

Faced with Ian's silence.

Snape spoke again.

"You left all your money to them. This is not what a smart person should do." Obviously, Ian's little moves before were not able to hide the wizard Snape's eyes.

"I still have a little left, which I can go to... to the corresponding place and exchange it into the currency of the wizarding world." Ian raised his head and glanced at Snape, who felt that he did not match his personality.

What about being silent?

"That's not too stupid."

Snape seemed to snort with his nostrils.

"You know you are just an orphan adopted here and you need to be taken care of, right?" Snape slowed down and glanced at Ian next to him with squinted eyes.

"My health was not very good when I was a child. It may be due to the awakening of magic, so I was weak and sickly." Ian did not answer Snape's question directly.

“Ms. Elena would take me to the hospital in the city to see a doctor. The economic situation of the orphanage at that time was much worse than it is now, but she would still buy expensive medicine for me.”
< br>"Food was also very scarce in the orphanage. When I was sick, Catherine would give her Give me half of the bread, and Daniel will run out to find wild herbs for me.”

“Although Daniel’s witch doctor grandmother was poisoned to death by her own medicine, this does not affect Daniel’s belief. , I can become strong as long as I take his medicine.”

"And Mia is a little younger than me. Whenever I get sick, she will pray to God all night long for me. Everyone is very, very kind to me."

Ian's voice was smooth and soft.

“Tsk, tsk, are you trying to impress me?”

Snape was unmoved.

“No, Professor.”

Ian didn't expect Snape to understand his heart. He heard that people who would become Death Eaters didn't know what love was, so he could only explain it to Snape from another angle.

"They have thought a lot about me, so when I am capable, of course I need to think about them too." Ian spoke softly with a very firm voice.

"This is my natural responsibility."

The childish voice echoed in the empty streets, and the young figure followed Snape in the haze. His calm words made Snape, wrapped in black robes, was silent for a long time.

“Tsk, tsk, I’m not a big person, but I have a lot of truths. I’m really worrying about something I shouldn’t be worrying about.”

After a long time.

Snape made a sarcastic expression.

“Although a wealthy and good man has donated anonymously over the years, the purchasing power of the pound has dropped sharply recently. Without that money, everyone would live very hard.”

伊The reason why En goes to the streets and sets up stalls every day is not only to improve his [Psychology] proficiency, but also to earn a little more money to share the worries of the dean, Ms. Elena.

Even without Hogwarts, the money would eventually turn into eggs, milk, vegetables, and meat, and he would bring it back to the orphanage in other ways.

To be honest, an eleven-year-old kid can't spend much money on himself. Ian is not a holy mother, but he is definitely not that kind of ungrateful Poseidon Douluo.

“So, you want me to call you the savior of the orphanage?”

Snape still looked at Ian sideways, and his slow tone made people want to give him a fist.

"No, Professor, if you can show your generosity and donate a little money to the orphanage, then you are the real savior, you are the real hero."

Yes. of.

Balabala said a lot.

Ian’s fox tail was finally exposed.

He turned to look at Snape with his big green eyes. He felt that the color of his eyes was the same as Lily Potter. Maybe it would have some influence?

And.

Although he still didn't understand what Dumbledore meant by what he said before, he did feel Snape's guilty emotion from [Thinking Perception].

If we can take advantage of this and get Snape to donate some money, it will definitely be a lucky thing for the orphanage - Ian's three melons and two dates can only last for a while. But now Snape is standing here, the Potions Master of Hogwarts, with just a little leakage from between his teeth, which is enough to benefit the orphanage.

Don’t underestimate the financial strength of a potions master.

"You are really a..."

Snape stopped.

Black eyes stared at Ian.

With a sharp and unclear complexity.

"A qualified Slytherin."

Obviously.

It was impossible to fool Snape with this little trick of Ian's. He almost instantly understood what Ian wanted to achieve after flirting with him for a long time.

"It's just a pity that you don't understand me. I'm not a good person. I won't donate even one gold galleon to a ridiculous Muggle orphanage."

Snape sneered.

In Ian's disappointed eyes, he took another step.

He took Ian and turned into a deserted alley.

“Drink it.”

Snape suddenly took out a bottle of green potion.

The words carry a flavor that cannot be refused.

"Huh?"

Ian, who was dragging his suitcase, was slightly startled. Looking at the green potion that seemed to be bubbling in the bottle, he couldn't help but swallowed and revealed A sneer expression.

"Professor, what is this..."

He felt that the other party was going to give him poison, even if it was something that was not poisonous, it would probably leave a psychological shadow. Everyone knows that the potions in the wizarding world taste worse than the last.

"You don't think that if I want to harm you, I need to use some tricks on you. I'll trick you into drinking a bottle of medicine first, right?" Snape looked at Ian with a contemptuous look. .

How to say it.

It does make sense.

“I just don’t think it tastes good.”

Ian responded weakly.

However.

Snape just stopped and stared at him expressionlessly.

"Okay, okay."

Clenched his teeth.

Ian took the potion.

I swallowed it all in one breath as if I were drinking medicine——Eh? The aftertaste is actually not bitter, but a sweet taste like coconut milk, very smooth and delicious!

Isn’t this right?

Didn’t I say that each of Snape’s potions tasted worse than the last! ?

Ian is still thinking about the potion.

"I have never seen you such a cowardly idiot!"

Snape suddenly took action, pinched Ian's neck with one hand, and waved his wand with the other hand to activate Apparition - both The individual figure immediately disappeared into the alley.

Ian felt his vision blurred.

Wait until the vision becomes clear again.

All the surrounding scenes have undergone earth-shaking changes.

In front of you are cobblestone streets that seem to stretch directly to the horizon. There are all kinds of shops on both sides of the road, and people wearing weird and gorgeous clothes are laughing and playing in the streets.

The feather duster is automatically sweeping away the dust, the unheld broom is cleaning the garbage on the street, owls, snakes, mice... various animals are cute and cute on the shoulders of the wizards.

The scene that I had only seen in the movie now appeared in front of Ian's eyes without any warning in a way that was dozens of times more shocking than the movie.

He knows.

This is Diagon Alley.

He, and many others...the place where dreams begin.
