Chapter 294 The Mysterious Passenger
"Harry is right."
"You really look like him."
"If we have a son."
The two people Harry cares about - the Peverells (James and Lily in this world) have approached him, close at hand.
Before he could respond, the Weasleys also began to greet him.
"We'll leave our daughter to you."
"Ron has always been carefree, I didn't expect that she would get married first."
"Gimli is very curious about what kind of man can make Ron, who only knows how to eat, drink and sleep, fall into depravity."
("What do you mean by only knowing how to eat, drink and sleep?" Ron felt the same way and asked Mrs. Weasley, "Mom, do you think of me the same way?")
(Mrs. Weasley shook her head, "You are also good at playing wizard chess.")
Harry's body stiffened.
He had known for a long time that Ginny was a man in this world.
But he couldn't help but overreact after hearing it.
"Ah, ah - Arthur Weasley." The speaker was Lucius Malfoy, his hand was already on Harry's shoulder.
"Lucius." The smile on Mr. Weasley's face faded.
It seems that even without pure-bloodism, the relationship between the two is still not good.
"Don't forget," said Mr. Malfoy, "Harry is a wizard, and he suffers in this regard."
"'Our daughter is in your hands,'" he imitated Mr. Weasley's tone, "Don't make it seem like he's taking advantage."
"What's the point of taking advantage of family members? You're too mercenary." Mr. Weasley said so, but his face still flushed when he reacted in his heart. Harry is such a thin child, can he really hold on to three witches?
Mr. Malfoy narrowed his eyes.
Just when the two were about to fight, Mrs. Weasley and Mrs. Malfoy pulled them back.
They, who were just like fighting bulls, instantly turned into harmless quails.
"Don't scare this child." Mr. Peverell looked at Harry, who looked very similar to him.
"We will be a family in the future." Mrs. Peverell blinked.
At this moment, the two of them were more like parents who stood up for their son.
Harry's eyes were moist.
(Snape's expression was stiff. He really couldn't stand James Potter and Lily being so intimate. Even though this James's last name was Peverell and he was more handsome.)
Mr. Malfoy and Mr. Weasley shook each other's hands reluctantly.
But as if the other's hands were hot, the two separated as soon as they touched.
"I'm glad we can be a family, dear Harry." Mrs. Weasley hurriedly gave Harry a hug.
Mrs. Malfoy was more reserved and just shook hands with him.
Next, Mr. Peverell took Harry and Percy and other female family members on board, while Mrs. Peverell stayed on the shore to greet the professors.
But Harry suspected that his father did this because he was afraid that Sirius would wake up and clamor to see him.
Among the guests, only Hagrid, Fleur, and Cho Zhang got on board.
Needless to say, Severus Snape was here to stay with Mrs. Peverell (Lily) who was staying on the shore.
Cedric and Krum, on the other hand, wanted to find some free time to chat.
The occurrence of such a big event made them full of the desire to complain and communicate.
"It's unbelievable that Harry would get married in this world." Cedric then smiled bitterly, "But this is really a pain for me, and it also made Qiu Zhang think about it."
(Amos Diggory expressed his great expectation that his son would get married.)
(Qiu Zhang's expression became gloomy, and he held Ginny's hand tightly beside him.)
Harry's marriage stimulated a large number of indulgent witches who just wanted to play.
After all, wizards are a scarce resource, and it is wise to marry one at home first.
Married wizards cannot be touched, and they are protected by the oath of chastity, even if they are tempted.
Prison brothels like the Hunger Platform are not always lined up.
And temperance witches like Qiu Zhang who don't have fun in prison brothels are even more so.
"Can't you use studies as an excuse?" Krum looked like a scumbag.
This was indeed the case. During these three months, he relied on his magic power to not be absorbed and had fun with those indulgent witches.
(Bajir just wanted to laugh. In the real world, indulgent witches are actually the female incarnations of male wizards.)
(Krum's performance has long been revealed to wizard audiences all over the world. It can be said that he has completely lost the right to choose a spouse.)
(At most, only snobs who see him as a warrior will choose him.)
"Have you forgotten? The secret that my magic power will not be absorbed has been exposed to her." Cedric sighed.
If I can use studies as an excuse, it would be great.
In fact, in the past, Hogwarts has rarely had students get married before graduation, just considering this issue.
After all, students in the sixth grade have already become adults, let alone those in the ninth grade.
And Cedric can't use this as an excuse.
This is the best choice to get married, which is the best protection for male wizards.
After all, even if they break up or divorce, male wizards, who are scarce resources, will not worry about people wanting them.
Although male wizards may be discriminated against when seeking employment, they have an advantage in the marriage market. Even if they ask for a high price of one thousand Galleons as a dowry, many female witches will grit their teeth and agree.
"That can't be helped." Krum shrugged.
"I don't know when the mission will end." Cedric sighed again, "You said, is there really nothing over there at the farm (where the fake Sorting Hat is hidden)? If it has nothing to do with it, when will the Demon Man realize that he is Error?"
"Yes, it's been too long. It's almost June over there." Klum was inevitably a little lonely, which was the biggest reason why he chose to indulge himself in indulgence.
(Ron, who had just finished his final exam, couldn't help but nod.)
(This is how his fourth grade school career ended.)
(In fact, he already suspects the mission will last until school starts in September.)
"If I'm not mistaken, it should be June 8, 1995 over there." Cedric said, "They should have finished their exams. Hopefully we can still make it in time for the final dinner."
("Today is really the 8th of June." Neville was surprised.)
(Though he doesn’t think it’s possible to make it to the end-of-semester dinner.)
(The end-of-term dinner was the last day of the second full week—the night before the Hogwarts train left for London Station, June 18, 1995.)
(Getting back to the end of the mission in 10 days is simply impossible.)
(The current mainstream view in the magic world is that they will still waste several decades in this mission world until the demon boy gives up when he gets older.)
(Perhaps the reason why the warrior becomes an immortal demon fairy in the first world is because the second world will consume a lot of time.)
And Krum thought so too.
"I'm ready to stay in this world for hundreds of years." He stretched. "Our world has left information on [roads], and our parents have enough time to wait for us."
"Look, Harry is married and has children. He must have noticed it."
"Is that so?" Cedric looked up at the deck, Qiu Zhang didn't know what he was talking to Fleur, and smiled brightly.
Suddenly, his thoughts began to waver.
"Maybe I should promise her."
(Qiu Zhang was so angry that he just took a big sip of pumpkin juice.)
(At the same time, she persuaded herself in her heart, "I am already very good, that is another me. Ginny is worse than me. She is a man in that world.")
Before Krum could tease Cedric, he heard Hagrid yelling that it was time to get on the ship.
Then, everyone got on the boat one by one.
It is worth mentioning that Siris was awakened by Hagrid's sound.
She struggled and kept calling "James" and "James", trying to get on the boat.
Mr. Peverell seemed to have sensed Sirius's awakening. The large ship that stopped by the black lake sank into the lake almost instantly. The planks and anchors were not closed, and disappeared into the whirlpool.
Sirius was left helplessly diving to the bottom of the lake, and then found nothing.
(Seeing this scene from Fleur's perspective on the deck of the ship, Sirius' eyes turned red with sadness.)
(He felt that the female version of himself was more worthy of James than Lily. At least she didn't have an affair with Severus.)
Fleur didn't pay attention to Sirius' performance.
She was completely silent in the strange scene around her. The big boat held up an invisible protective cover in the water. They were in a fantasy underwater world.
The water plants swayed, the ugly cold-water mermaid dragged Grindylow to observe in the dark, and the colorful ball fish swam past in a row at high speed.
Then, a whirlpool appeared out of thin air, plunging the entire ship into darkness.
Hagrid's voice sounded, "Everyone, stay calm. This is a spatial transfer. Because the ship's hull is relatively large, it will be much slower than Apparition and Floo Network travel."
Harry, who was put into the room, didn't understand what slow speed meant at first.
But it wasn't until he started dozing off that he understood what slowness meant.
("The screen has been black for almost an hour. How long will it take?" Ron walked up to a Durmstrang student and asked.)
(“It didn’t take us that long to get from the northernmost part of Europe to Hogwarts?” This student was very confused. “It’s not that far from the southwest of England to the Scottish Plateau [referring to Godric’s Hollow to Hogwarts]. Bar.")
(Ron guessed, "Godric's Hollow is called this name because Gryffindor was born here. Maybe he was born in other places in this world. For example, the New World, and then somewhere in the New World [referring to the American continent and adjacent islands] The valley is called Godric's Hollow.")
("Maybe it's because of the quality of the magic power." Another Durmstrang student said, "This way of group space movement, in addition to considering the practical quality of the wizards and objects they carry, also takes into account their magic power. quality.”)
("Let's not mention Harry and the other four magic fairies for now. The wizards in this world have been optimized because of their bloodline, and the quality and quantity of their magic far exceed that of our world.")
("That's right." Ron nodded, "No wonder they put Harry in the room to give him time to rest and recharge.")
Harry was not sleepy at the moment.
Maybe there was at first, but the darkness here was completely different from the darkness of the real night, so he quickly woke up.
In this space-shifted reality, lighting spells and other lighting methods have no effect. Even if he can see at night, he cannot see everything around him.
He could only feel his way to the door of his room, listening to the conversations in the corridor and other rooms.
"How much longer?"
"You forget we can't see anything here."
"Usually it takes 3 hours, but it's been about an hour now?"
"However. A conservative family like Malfoy actually agreed. It seems that Lucius really dotes on his daughter."
"Are you confused? They insisted on monogamy before because the surname Malfoy was the husband, and the Malfoys of this generation are witches."
"That's right. No wonder Weasley and Peverell also agreed. Their daughters are the wives of the couple."
Harry listened to it more interestingly and absorbedly at first.
But after repeating some boring mumblings over and over again, he began to leave the door bored, groped and sat on the sofa on the left, leaning his head against the wall and began to take a nap.
"Finally quiet down." Harry thought.
Wait, quiet?
He suddenly remembered that there was someone in the innermost room on his left.
It was a wizard with half of his face covered by a silver mask.
And with his keen senses, as long as the person next door was not a dead person who couldn't breathe and didn't move, he should be able to capture the movement.
Of course, it is also possible that there is a soundproof spell in the next room.
But this is more suspicious.
In this world, only witches cover their faces, and the person next to them is a wizard, coupled with a soundproof spell.
Could it be that this guy is one of the members of the Knights who are on the run?
It is not impossible.
Purebloods are relatives and have complicated relationships.
Even in their world, if we talk about relatives, Ron is still Draco Malfoy's uncle, and Malfoy is still his nephew.
Boom~
The slight shaking of the hull interrupted Harry's thinking.
The darkness in the eyes of other passengers, for Harry, can already vaguely see the outline, just like the dawn when the sky is just slightly bright.
"Are we there?" As Harry stood up, dawn turned into noon - the dawn in the eyes of other passengers.
The fact that they have left the gap between reality was instantly discovered by the passengers.
The lights in the room and the corridor lit up instantly.
Harry walked out of the room.
The passengers in other rooms did the same.
The whole ship became lively again.
Before walking to the deck, Harry glanced at the room in the corner with his peripheral vision. Its door was still closed, and the mysterious passenger seemed to be non-existent.
Splash!
The golden and white ship surfaced.
Harry looked around. The sky was already dark and dotted with stars.
In the distance, there was a town with bright lights that echoed the stars in the sky.
But what caught his attention most were the three figures on the shore.
They had only been separated for a day, but it seemed like a century.
Just as he caught sight of them at the dim dock, they also found his trace on the crowded deck.
"Harry!" x3
The three waved, and their voices drowned out all the noise around them.
