Chapter 58 Godric's Hollow

The night before the holiday, it snowed heavily all night at Hogwarts.

The goose feather-like white snow turned the whole place into a white blanket, and Hogwarts Castle was also covered with snow, which made it look extraordinarily beautiful from afar.

When Andy left the castle, he also saw Filch working hard to clear the snow on the open space. His cold face was red, and he only had a broken broom in his hand, looking very pitiful.

After getting on the train at Hogsmeade station, Andy and Hermione found an unoccupied compartment. In order to avoid being disturbed, Andy also used magic to lock the door of the compartment.

The train slowly moved forward and got closer and closer to the end of the line, King's Cross Station.

"Remember the first time we met?"

Andy looked at the scenery outside the window that was continuously regressing and laughed, "At that time, you still knew nothing about the magical world and looked nervous. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, the little witch at that time has already become a spell master."

"What kind of spell master am I?"

Hermione was a little embarrassed, "Besides, where am I nervous?"

"If you say you're not nervous, you're not nervous!"

Andy laughed, "Merry Christmas in advance. When it's the holidays, you'll only see that on a Christmas card."

"I wish you a Merry Christmas in advance, too, Andy!"

Hermione said softly, "Thanks for taking care of me these past few months."

It was nearing evening when the train stopped at Platform 9¾.

"Hi, Neville!"

When he got off the train, Andy saw Neville. Thinking that he was an acquaintance anyway, he stopped by to say hello.

"Hi! Andy, Hermione."

Neville immediately ran over, "I was looking for you guys, but I couldn't find where you were sitting."

"Another time!" Andy patted Neville.

Getting off the train, the few walked through the wall to the station building.

There were a few Ministry of Magic employees standing near the exit, dressed in Muggle clothing, specialized in modifying the memories of Muggles who had noticed something unusual.

Andy swept his eyes toward the receiving crowd and quickly spotted Helen. She was holding Isabel's small hand and was waving repeatedly towards Andy.

"My mom's here."

Andy said, "Bye! Hermione, Neville. Let's see you guys at the start of the semester!"

After saying that, Andy waved his hand towards the two of them and walked quickly towards Helen and Isabel's side.

"Bye, Andy!" Hermione waved her hand as well.

"Mom, Issa, long time no see."

Andy gave the two a warm hug.

The little girl poked her head around and sized up Andy's classmates from afar as she asked, "Andy, is that little witch your girlfriend?"

"You mean Hermione?"

Andy's vanity kicked in, and he nodded at the little girl, "Maybe, why not?"

"That's weird!"

Isabel pouted, looking as if she was a little upset, "Can someone like you find a girlfriend?"

"What kind of person is someone like me?" Andy pulled Isabel's face, "Young lady, tell me clearly!"

Helen hurriedly looked over, "Which one? Issa, did you see clearly?"

Hermione had already followed her parents away by this time.

Helen was instantly a bit regretful, she rubbed Andy's cheeks, "You met a girl at school, but you didn't write to tell us about it."

Helen wasn't as gullible as Isabel, she didn't quite believe that Andy would have a girlfriend in the first year.

What did an eleven-year-old baby know about love?

However, in the magical world, the boys and girls who were more familiar with each other in school usually got together after graduation.   

Helen and Kyle were like that back then.

So in Helen's opinion, even if Hermione wasn't Andy's girlfriend yet, there wasn't really any difference.

It was just a matter of a few years!

"Stop looking, they've all left."

Andy spread his hands, "I'll introduce you guys to them later when I have the chance!"

Helen took Isabel's hand and said to Andy while walking, "This Christmas, we're spending time at your grandfather's house."

"Got it!" Andy responded.

Andy's family has quite a lot of relatives.

Grandfather, grandmother, maternal grandfather and maternal grandmother were all still alive. On top of that, Andy also has an aunt, a great-uncle, and a sister-in-law.

If you count the more distant relatives, there are even more.

The grandfather's family lives in Godric's Hollow, which is a very famous settlement area for half-wizards, and it is said that the founder of Gryffindor House was born there.

When they sat on the Knight Bus, Isabel immediately became excited.

Andy couldn't help but suspect that this little girl might have followed Helen to the station to pick him up, just to ride the bus.

"We're going to Godric's Hollow," Helen said to the conductor.

After buying the ticket, the Knight Bus launched itself out towards the front like an arrow out of a string, so fast that even the scenery outside the window looked a little distorted.

"Wow!" The little girl cheered, the Knight Bus was her favourite ride.

"Isa, when I'm on summer break, how about taking you to a muggle amusement park?" Andy decided to plan water slides, roller coasters, bungee jumps and whatnot for the little girl.

Let the little lass have a good time.

"Amusement park, what is that?" Isabel looked curious.

"It's a place where muggle kids play games, I also heard it from my classmates," Andy said.

Isabel nodded, "Then we have a deal."

"Say yes!" Andy rubbed the little girl's head.

Soon, Godric's Hollow stop arrived, and Isabel followed Andy and Helen out of the bus with a look that she didn't get her fill of it.

There was a small square in the middle of the village, and there was a war memorial in the middle of the square. A few stores, a post office, a pub, and a church were around it.

The monument was enchanted so that whenever a wizard passed near it, the monument would turn into a statue of three people.

A male wizard with dishevelled hair and glasses; a witch with long hair and beautiful features; and a baby boy held in the witch's arms.

It is none other than the Harry Potter family that is honoured here.

At the end of a path along the square, you could see a large area of ruins - that's where the Potter family had hid to escape Voldemort's pursuit.

Andy had visited there before...

Andy's grandfather's house was on the other side of the square, and as the three were walking, they were suddenly greeted by a very old witch.

She was really old, and her hunchback made her look very short.

Her face was full of wrinkles and had yellow-brown age spots on it, and her eyes looked very cloudy due to cataracts.

If she were a muggle, then she would be in bed right now, on the last leg of her life.

But she was a witch.

So she was perfectly capable of taking care of herself, and although she looked old, Andy suspected that he probably wouldn't be able to beat her.

"Good evening, Mrs. Bagshot." Helen greeted.
