Harry Potter and the Old Ones

Chapter 18 King's Cross Station

His plan is simple.

Find an opportunity to get close to Hagrid and take the opportunity to drop the Philosopher's Stone.

The few months of wandering life just after coming out of the orphanage allowed Tierra to develop proficient stealing and lockpicking skills.

Tierra was confident that as long as he could put his hand into the pocket of Hagrid's leather jacket, he would be able to completely switch the Philosopher's Stone without anyone noticing.

Hagrid is a half-giant who is kind, has a sense of justice, and has no defense against others.

This leads to him having available points.

Tierra will inoculate himself with the plague worm. The kind-hearted Hagrid will definitely not sit idly by Tierra's pain. With his half-giant height, even if Tierra doesn't mention it, he will definitely hold Tierra Pull to find a doctor.

And that was indeed the case, Hagrid picked him up without hesitation, and went straight to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries.

Because Tierra's hands and feet were cold, she would instinctively seek warmth, which gave him an excuse to put his hands under Hagrid's coat.

It took twenty minutes from Diagon Alley to Hagrid at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries.

Twenty minutes is enough for Tierra to switch the Philosopher's Stone ten times.

When they arrived at St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries, the real Philosopher's Stone had been placed in a pocket of the underwear Tierra sewed himself, but the only problem was that he couldn't restore 100% of the package that included the Philosopher's Stone. .

So when Hagrid covered him with his coat, Tierra deliberately arched out the fake Sorcerer's Stone package hidden in Hagrid's clothes, in order to use the drop of the Sorcerer's Stone to cover up the difference between the Sorcerer's Stone package and the original The fact that there are minor differences in packaging.

After all, the Philosopher's Stone was not wrapped very tightly. After falling on the ground and rolling it a few times, it is reasonable and logical that the paper wrapping it and the rope tied to it shifted slightly.

And in order to cover up her fingerprints, Tierra used solid glue to smear her nine fingers as early as this morning.

This is a technique he learned from Conan.

At that time, I just thought this method was very interesting, so I kept it in my mind.

I didn't expect that one day it would actually be useful in another world.

Then he deliberately slowed down the time of picking pets, in order to let Hagrid stay in the noisy and dim owl house for a while.

In this way, even if Dumbledore really finds out that the Sorcerer's Stone has been swapped, the first suspect must be other wizards who used the environment of the owl house to complete the theft, rather than suspecting a quasi-first-year wizard who is dying of the plague and is dying. .

The plan was perfect, but the only point of uncertainty was the anomaly of his choice of wand.

Tierra wasn't quite sure how important this anomaly was in Dumbledore's eyes, and whether it would make Dumbledore connect this incident with the theft of the Sorcerer's Stone.

Now Tierra can only wait and see what happens. After putting the Sorcerer's Stone into this library, Tierra is not going to come in again before school starts.

This month, he had to try his best to make sure that he looked like a normal quasi-first-year freshman, so as not to show his flaws when Dumbledore really came to him.

For stealing the Philosopher's Stone, Tierra didn't feel any guilt except for Hagrid.

Anyway, this Philosopher's Stone will be destroyed after being shelved for a year at Hogwarts, so it's better to cut it down and keep it for your own use.

I believe it will not have any impact on the future plot.

If it really had any bad effects...

Natiera immediately packed up and left. He still had relatives in the motherland, so even if he went bankrupt to buy a plane ticket, he would not lose money. With a bit of money, he would earn it back soon anyway.

Tierra is very clear about his position, he is a powerless and powerless little person in the magic world, his only reliance is his familiarity with the future direction and that library.

If there are major and unpredictable changes in the future, he will definitely turn around and leave.

Although learning magic is delicious, it is far less important than one's own life.

Voldemort and his Death Eaters are a bunch of lunatics, and they will be liquidated on their own heads at some point.

Tierra hid the Philosopher's Stone in an obsidian box in a drawer of a wooden table in the library.

This is the box originally used to store Merlin's semi-finished product.

Then Tierra didn't stay for a second, recited the spell, and returned to her bed.

Raven was placed on the first floor by him, so what happened here did not disturb any life.

After waking up the next morning, Tierra washed up, and after eating breakfast, she held the spell book, the herb book, and the potion book in her arms like a child who was dispelling the magic world for the first time.

Although he is more confident than other young wizards of the same age, he is a wild boy who has not undergone serious study and training after all. He just uses this month to preview the courses and make some preparations for the basic learning in the future.

A month passed quickly.

Contrary to Harry's unhappiness, Tierra's life is very fulfilling.

From time to time, he goes to the streets to perform magic tricks to earn a little extra money. Given his young appearance, Londoners generally give him generous money, which is enough for him to eat for a month.

Tierra spent the rest of the time training Raven and learning magic lessons for the first grade.

What Tierra was worried about didn't happen. He lived very peacefully this month, and he didn't know whether Dumbledore didn't find out that the Philosopher's Stone had been swapped or he found it, but he didn't say anything.

A month later, Tierra and Harry met at the gate of King's Cross Railway Station at 10:10 as agreed previously.

Harry arrived a little early. After all, he was going to London with the Dursleys, and he couldn't control the time himself.

"Tierra, do you know... where is platform nine and three quarters?" Harry repeatedly looked at the ticket package in his hand, he and Tierra had already turned around the entire train station platform , but still did not find the nine and three-quarters platform written on the ticket.

"I don't know." Tierra replied indifferently, checking the time for a while, and looking at the surrounding crowd for a while, as if trying to find the group of red-haired Weasleys from the crowd.

"But we can wait here." Tierra said, "Today is the first day of school, and there will definitely be other wizard kids going to platform nine and three-quarters, so we can just keep up."

As soon as Tierra finished speaking, a group of people hurried past behind them.

"...Of course there are many Muggles here..." A high-pitched voice fell into the ears of Tierra and Harry at the same time.

Muggles!

Tierra and Harry were overjoyed, they turned their heads at the same time, and saw that the person who was speaking was a short, fat woman with curly blond hair, she looked very strong, her voice was full of spirit, and she was striding forward, Talk to the fiery red-haired boy behind her again.

The four boys with fiery red hair, except for one with a round fat face who looked about the same age as Harry and Tierra, the other three of them were pushing suitcases like Harry's— A birdcage was also placed on top of their box, and there was also an owl in the birdcage.

Harry and Tiera looked at each other, and hurriedly pushed their own car towards the family that looked like wizards.

"Okay, what platform is it?" the children's mother asked.

"Nine!" A little girl with fiery red hair held her mother's hand and said in a high-pitched voice, "Mom, Mom, I want to go too."

"You're too young, Ginny, now, stop talking. Percy, you go first."

The boy who appeared to be the oldest walked towards the middle of platforms nine and ten.

Harry stared at him intently, not daring to blink, for fear of missing something, but just as the boy reached the junction of platforms nine and ten, a large group of passengers suddenly crowded in front of Harry, waiting for the last When a large rucksack was moved away, the child was gone.

"Fred, it's your turn," said the fat woman.

"I'm not Fred, I'm George," said the boy. "Honestly, you say you're our mother, but why don't you recognize me as George?"

"I'm sorry, George, dear."

"Just kidding, I'm Fred," said the kid and walked on, his twin urging him to hurry up. He must have listened to him, for he was gone in a second—but how did he do it?

At this time, the third brother, the youngest-looking little wizard with a round face, also took steps towards the ticket gate...

"Excuse me, ma'am." Tierra stepped forward and said to the fat lady, "Excuse me, are you going to platform nine and three-quarters? Harry and I are going to Hogwarts for the first time, I don't know why go."

"Oh, cutie," said the fat lady, "don't worry, my little Ron is also a new student."

She pointed to her last and youngest son.

The kid was thin and tall, but had a round, fleshy face that looked clumsy and freckled, with big hands and feet and a long nose.

"But, what, how..." Harry asked.

"How should we go?" Mrs. Weasley said understandingly, and Harry and Tierra nodded quickly.

"Don't worry," she said, "just go straight to the ticket gate between platforms nine and ten. Don't stop, don't be afraid, follow the pillars, it's important. If you're nervous, You just trot, um... let's go, Ron, you go first, and set an example for the two cuties."

After speaking, Mrs. Weasley patted Ron on the back.

"Oh, okay, okay." After Ron finished speaking, he pushed his guess and trotted all the way, staring at the ticket gate in front of him, speeding up his pace along the way, running faster and faster, while Tierra and Harry held tightly staring at the back of Ron's head.

Ron suddenly disappeared in front of the wall post, followed by Harry and Tierra who rushed in afterwards.

Through the brief darkness, Tierra came to a noisy and chaotic platform.

A crimson steam locomotive was parked next to a platform full of passengers, and a sign on the train read:

Hogwarts Express, eleven o'clock

Tierra looked back and saw that the place where the ticket gate used to be was now a wrought iron archway with the words: Platform 9 Nine and Three Quarters.
