Tom Riddle did not come to trouble Hoffa. In fact, after receiving the invitation from Hogwarts, he behaved very low-key.

Hoffa will not stupidly trouble the other party. All he has to do is eat, exercise, and get familiar with the environment.

1 month later, Hoffa basically visited the area around the orphanage. He also figured out the approximate location of Leaky Cauldron.

At this moment, Hoffa is holding a paper map of London, walking on the way to Leaky Cauldron.

He wears a worker's hat and the socks on Martin's boots are dirty. Dressed up like a child laborer selling newspapers.

The streets of London in 1938 were not as prosperous as later generations. The roads here were paved with gray bricks and bumpy. On the road, some Master cars with the canopy beeping past, emitting black exhaust. They are monotonous in color, not at all multi-colored like later cars.

Many people who can’t eat enough to eat are dangling around holding up job-hunting signs, and some decadent youngsters are smoking cigarettes on street corners. This is the repercussions affected by the economic crisis of 1929. The decline of the empire after the first world war is undoubtedly obvious.

On the corner of the street, Hoffa saw a group of workers painting the wall with pipes and paste in their mouths. He approached and saw that these people were putting up black and white posters of Britain's royal conscription.

Seeing this poster, Hoffa felt cold.

At this point in time, he forgot the most important thing. This thing does not come from the wizard world, but from the muggle world.

That is the second world war is about to start! !

Hillert is still alive! A large number of Demon King-level characters in the same period are all alive!

Tojo Hideki, Mussolini...

Compared with the dark wizard Voldemort who has not yet grown up, these guys are the genuine Demon King group! The destruction and killing caused by Voldemort may not be as much as a fraction of others.

Hoffa doesn't know much about history, but he knows that World War II began in 1939, and it is only a year since the present.

After seeing this poster, Hoffa was stunned on the spot holding the map.

He is a little bit eager to cry without tears.

Old Thief Heaven, what era is not good, why must come to this era of war! ?

……

Beep du!

The sound of car horns pulled Hoffa back from the state of loss.

He turned around and saw that an old-fashioned motorcycle drove over. The last time he saw Hoffa was in the anti-Japanese drama. It's the kind of motorcycle that drives by one person and rides in the bucket alone.

Two soldiers in dark green stopped in front of Hoffa, and a smoking soldier lay down in the carriage and asked loudly.

"Is it Hoffa. Bach?"

Hoffa was taken aback and looked at the two young soldiers in wonder, thinking that he did not know these two guys, is it possible that himself Is there a name on the face?

He nodded: "It’s me."

Suddenly, the soldier sitting on the wagon pulled out a stack of letters from behind his buttocks. He dipped his saliva and turned it over. After flipping it, he drew one out and handed it to Hoffa.

"Your letter, little fellow, take it and don't lose it."

After that, as soon as the soldier stepped on the pedal, the motorcycle drove away.

Hoffa turned the letter in amazement.

London

Bonington Market Street

532 meters west of Leaky Cauldron

The second corner

Mr. Hoffa. Bach collects

Just like in the novel, the words are written in emerald green ink, without stamps, and he has a heavy touch like parchment in his hand.

Hoffa opened his mouth and looked at the two soldiers who had long since disappeared, then turned over the letter. I saw a wax seal, a shield crest, and a lion, an eagle, a badger and a snake surrounded by the capital "H".

Well, although after Dumbledore talked to himself that day, he estimated that he would receive a letter, but he didn't expect it to be in this situation.

He looked up at the sky, wondering.

How did these guys position themselves so precisely?

Let go of doubts, Hoffa opened the letter with excitement. In his previous life, he fantasized countless times that it has become a reality today, and he couldn't be more excited.

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

headmaster: Armando Dipet

(International Wizard Federation Vice-President, Imperial Family Honor Magic Teacher, Wizengamot chief wizard)

Dear Mr. Bach:

We are happy to inform you that you have been approved to study at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Enclosed is a list of required books and equipment.

The semester is scheduled to start on September 1. We will be waiting for your owl before July 31st to bring your reply.

Deputy Headmistress

Sincerely, Adbe Gorshak

Hoffa tossed over and read this paper several times, no doubt , This letter is the same as in the novel, but completely different.

In this letter, he got three pieces of information. One, his headmaster is not Dumbledore, but a man named Armando Dipeter. Second, Deputy Headmistress is not Minerva McGonagall, but a stranger named Adbe Gosak. Third, the muggle world is not completely separated from the wizard world, at least in the royal room, some people know the existence of the wizard world.

For example, the two soldiers just now are likely to be wizards. Otherwise, he would not pass this strange letter to himself so peacefully. Of course, it does not rule out the probability that they were cast.

However, after seeing the title of Armando Dipeter's headmaster, the honorary magician of the Empire, Hoffa felt that his previous speculation was a little more true.

This is not surprising. The information held by people at the top of the world is definitely higher than that of ordinary persons. For such a large wizard group, without the cooperation of the muggle's top management, it is impossible to completely conceal the existence of the wizard with just a Ministry of Magic. Mark of.

Secretly jot down the information he got, Hoffa took out the second page.

This page looks very ordinary. It only records some necessary textbooks and props for Hogwarts, which is similar to what I saw in my previous life.

You can read it through, but Hoffa is shivered.

He remembered a very important thing.

That means he has no money...

Yes.

He is truly in a state of extreme poverty, poor and white. All meals are funded by the orphanage.

Neither the dead father and mother left me property, and I don’t know where to apply for the Hogwarts poverty fund. In this world, I don’t even have a relative like Uncle Vernon.

He can't ask the people in the orphanage for money to read Hogwarts. Those people are also pitiful persons, and it's not easy to raise yourself so big.

Standing on the streets of London in 1938, Hoffa was blown by the cold wind of reality, and felt chilly.

1 point money stumps the hero, even if it is a transmigrator, I feel extremely helpless at this moment.

"Would you like this, Boss...gave hope and let the hope be shattered?"

Hoffa sighed to herself, putting the letter in her pocket.

No way, Hogwarts will definitely go. It was his childhood dream in a previous life.

Even if it's begging for a job! He also has to collect the tuition fees!

Gritting his teeth, Hoffa walked towards Leaky Cauldron.

If you want to beg for a part-time job, you have to go to the wizard world to discuss it. After all, there is no gold Galleon muggle world in the wizard.

The only good news is that he already knows the exact location of Leaky Cauldron on the envelope.

……

Leaky Cauldron is now located in the middle of a suit shop and an umbrella shop. The surrounding muggle walks around, turning a blind eye to it. Hoffa puts the map in his pocket. , Stepped into it.

This legendary bar is as described in the book, black and broken, fish and dragons mixed in together.

The drinking wizard, the smoking witch, and a few creatures that look like Goblin playing cards in the corner. The table is full of coins.

The only difference is that the boss in front of the counter is not so hunched and old. Although the Mediterranean on his head has shown his fate of rags, at least he is not a bald now.

On the wall of the bar, rows of dark oil paintings are particularly eye-catching.

Everyone in the oil painting moves.

Hoffa looked over slowly, and at the end of the oil painting group, he saw an oil painting of an old woman. In the painting, she wears a wooden hairpin and smokes a pipe, just like a charter wife.

She saw Hoffa, and fiercely spit out smoke: "What do you look at, little devil!?"

Hoffa frowned.

I can only see it below the oil painting.

Leaky Cauldron ---founded by Daisy Dodridge

(1467-1555)

Hoffa didn’t want to care about an oil painting, he came Boss Tom's bar.

The young Boss Tom was wiping the cup in front of the bar at the moment. He just raised his head and glanced lightly at Hoffa who came in by pushing the door, and then stopped paying attention.

Hoffa thought of the grand occasion when Harry Potter entered the bar for the first time in the future, and compared himself with the dilemma that no one cares about, he can only lament that constantly comparing oneself to others will only make one angry.

I really don't have the legendary protagonist halo.

He glanced eagerly at the gold Galleon in Goblin's hand, and then walked to the bar.

The bar is so high that Hoffa had to stand on tiptoe and let out a clear cough: "Hello!"

"Hello." The response of the bar Boss Tom was neither enthusiastic nor Indifferent, just very ordinary.

Hoffa: "I want to ask, are you recruiting workers here?"

Tom then put down the cup wiping action and glanced at Hoffa with a slightly surprised look: "You said What?"

Hoffa: "Excuse me, I want to find a job, a short-term one."

Tom was surprised: "Merlin's beard, the wizard kid now Will you come out to find a job when you are young?"

Hoffa is crazy, but the situation is better than others, he can only sigh: "No way, isn't there an economic crisis outside?"

Tom grinned, shook his head and said: "Sorry, we don't hire child labor here." After speaking, he turned to the other side of the table and continued to wipe the glass.

Hoffa didn’t give up, he followed him too: "Wait a minute, do you know that Diagon Alley has other recruiting shops?"

Tom is upset, he is frowned and heavily Put down the rag.

"Hey! You kid, don't go to Hogwarts to go to school, learn something, and come out to find a job. Do you think work is such a simple thing?"

Damn it! Hoffa cursed inwardly. You think I don't want to go, how can I stick to your cold ass if I have money!

Why is this Old Guy so snobbish, so enthusiastic when he saw Harry Potter, seeing himself like a plague god, wishing to rush out.

Tom’s voice attracted several wizards to look over. Among them, a tall witch turned around, smoking a pipe and smilingly and asked: "Little fellow, are you short of money? Go to Knockturn Alley with my sister to see..."

Hoffa quickly replied: "No, thank you for your kindness. I still want to find it at Diagon Alley."

p>Of course he wouldn't agree. This guy who can be his grandmother actually claims to be his sister, which is not normal at first sight.

The tall witch twitched his lips and blew smoke on his face.

Hoffa still lowered his posture. He said to Boss Tom: "I want to go to Diagon Alley, can you open the door for me?"

Open the door, this is something Tom’s job, his bar is here, and he is also considered half a goalkeeper.

He didn’t refuse, and said faintly: "Come with me."

Hoffa thought in his heart that there are so many stores in Diagon Alley, maybe there will be one that offers her own job. .

Standing in front of the wall, Tom said, "Count up three pieces, count two pieces in, and finally hit three times. Remember to use magic power when you hit it. If you have a wand later If you want."

Hoffa quickly nodded and said yes, but what he thought was that he didn't have a dime. Ollivander probably wouldn't credit wand to himself.

Seeing that Hoffa's attitude was not bad, Tom said: "What is your brat's name and why you are looking for a job."

Hoffa felt that things seemed to have changed, so he said quickly:" My name is Hoffa, and I am looking for a job to earn some book money." In the bar lobby, one of the card players, Goblin, suddenly turned his ears and his eyes floated.

Boss Tom is frowned: "If you don’t have money, you can write to Hogwarts to apply for a subsidy. I don’t need the money. Also, if you want to find a job in Diagon Alley, I advise you to die. Be mindful. They are all official stores registered by the Ministry of Magic and are not allowed to recruit children under the age of 16."

The hope that had just burned in Hoffa's heart was suddenly dashed, like a bulging balloon. The epidermis is broken, puci puci is discouraged.

Write to Hogwarts to apply, he wants to write too.

People also said in their letter that they are expecting a reply from their owl, but the problem is.

Hoffa does not have an owl.......

Of course, owl can be bought at Diagon Alley, but he has no money either...

No one.

However, just as Hoffa was a little desperate, a card-playing Goblin jumped off a stool and squeezed from the waist of a few chat wizards.

Goblin beckoned: "Wait a minute, young wizard, what's your name?"

Hoffa turned his head curiously, and saw one wearing single-sided glasses and a leather jacket , Goblin walked over with his leather shoes and a suit on his arm. He is only half of a normal person tall, which is about the same height as himself. With a bunch of fashionable blonde hair on his forehead and two earrings hanging from his ears, he looked pleasing to the eye compared to the other potbellied old Goblin.

"My name is Hoffa, what's wrong?"

Goblin nodded, he pushed his single-sided glasses.

"The last name is Bach, isn't it?"

"Yes." Hoffa was surprised.

"Why did you come, I have been waiting for you for three days." Goblin complained, "My name is Induo, please take care of me."

He extended the expertly hand, like a salesman.

Hoffa took the opponent's hand and looked up and down at the Goblin dressed up by the clerk. He thought, what he did, can make a Goblin wait for three days. You must know that these creatures are extremely stingy, do you owe him money?

But Indor quickly said: "A wizard asked me to do something a few days ago. Let me wait here for a child named Hoffa."

, Yinduo coughed, flipped through the pocket of his trousers, took out a crumpled letter from a pile of azure Copper Coin, and handed it to Hoffa.

"This is the letter that the wizard asked me to send you."

Hoffa took a quick look at the letter. The letter was unsigned, only some circles in English.

...

He is a good Goblin

Get along well

See you at school

Very concise words, but Hoffa knows who wrote this letter at a glance . It was Dumbledore. It turned out that he hadn't forgotten himself. Hoffa couldn't help but feel warm. He relaxed.

At any rate, there is another person in this world who is thinking about himself, and he doesn't have to go to work.

After reading the letter, Hoffa looked at the Goblin in front of him more and more pleasing to the eye...

Wait, why is this guy suddenly rubbing his hands and laughing so unfairly?

Hoffa suspiciously asked: "What are you laughing at?"

Goblin pushed his glasses, said with a smile: "This is the situation, but something unexpected happened. "

"What's the accident?" Hoffa had a bad feeling in her heart.

"The accident is that this guy has been playing cards in my store for three days, and has lost three days." It was Tom who answered Hoffa, and the bar boss sneered and said with his arms in his arms. Turned and left. no longer paid attention to Hoffa.

Look at the ashamed Goblin in front of him, then at the back of Tom, and then at the few Goblins who are collecting money at the poker table.

Hoffa felt that several dementors were kissing herself, and a trace of soul slowly floated out of her seven orifices.

"Do you mean...? My enrollment grant..."

Induo: "Yes, I have already lost Up."
