004 Professor McGonagall

When young wizards enter Hogwarts, they can bring a pet. It's usually nothing more than a cat, owl, or toad, with the exception of Ron's mouse.

As for dogs, apart from the three-headed dog, the only one Altaïr remembered was the one from Hagrid's hut.

It seems that no students have dogs at school.

Additionally, Charlie is still a ferocious Doberman Pinscher and has been trained as a hunting dog, so Hogwarts may not allow him to take him to school.

"Poor."

Altaïr patted Charlie on the head, and the latter petted him lovingly and continued eating the steak.

After walking the dog, Altaïr returned to the castle and watched TV for a while, when the time came he went to have lunch, after lunch, after taking a short break, Altaïr would receive today's shooting training.

Afternoon training is usually held every other day, and in addition to shooting, equestrian and combat training are also conducted.

Altaïr used a PPK pistol with less recoil, but his wrists still hurt after training.

"You hit all the moving targets and hit the stationary targets time and time again. Altaïr, the Shelby family will be proud of you."

The person responsible for teaching Altaïr to shoot was Jerome, the good brother of his father Freddy, he was also a sniper and had saved Freddy's life several times, Altaïr respected him a lot.

"Thank you for your compliment, Uncle Jerome. Without your guidance, I don't think I would have achieved such results."

"Ha ha ha."

Jerome laughed happily and took a few sips from the wine glass. After telling Altaïr some stories about the fierce battle in Birmingham with Freddy, the afternoon's training ended completely.

Altaïr went straight to his exclusive pool behind the castle, soaked in the pool and ate some cakes. After having afternoon tea, Altaïr swam a few laps before returning to the castle.

That was the end of today's exercise and Altaïr turned on the television.

Half a month passed and Altaïr looked forward to the owl's response every day. Finally, that night, they knocked on Altaïr's window again.

It was the same owl that brought Professor McGonagall's response.

Professor McGonagall said in her letter that she would visit him at three in the afternoon on July 30. Reading between the lines, she seemed to have a good impression of Altaïr.

Altaïr looked at the calendar and saw that the 30th was still a week away.

"In a week I will be exposed to the world of wizards!"

Thinking about those mysterious magics and incredible powers, Altaïr couldn't help but feel fascinated.

To welcome Professor McGonagall, Altaïr approached Michael and told him that there would be a very distinguished guest on the afternoon of the 30th, and asked him to notify the servants to prepare the desserts and drinks for the afternoon tea. late in advance.

Furthermore, Altaïr also asked him to warn Razor's gunmen guarding Shelby Manor in advance. After all, he didn't want Professor McGonagall to discover that the place was full of armed gang members after entering the mansion.

Finally, with Altaïr's thoughts in mind, the time came for July 30th.

14:50

Altaïr led Sophia, accompanied by Shelby and many servants, to the door of the mansion.

At two fifty-eight, a beautiful silver tabby gracefully appeared on the path outside Shelby Manor. Altaïr's eyes lit up. He knew that Professor McGonagall was an Animagus. If nothing unexpected happened, this tabby cat should be Professor McGonagall.

But what surprised him was that the tabby cat did not approach, but stopped abruptly and suddenly ran into the nearby forest.

In fact, Professor McGonagall did not expect that there would be so many people at the door of Shelby Manor.

As a wizard, she can't show magic in front of Muggles, of course, except when she enrolls at Hogwarts, because she needs to perform some magic to convince the little wizard's Muggle parents.

However, there were indeed too many people coming now, including not only Altaïr and his guardians, but also some unrelated people, Professor McGonagall had no choice but to go deeper into the forest.

"Time is almost up."

Michael took out his pocket watch and looked at it: two fifty-nine.

"I'm sure it will arrive on time."

Altaïr said, and just as he finished his words, a woman dressed in an emerald green robe suddenly emerged from the forest, surprising everyone who was waiting at the entrance of the mansion.

She is a somewhat serious looking woman. She wears glasses. She is tall and a little thin. She appears to be about sixty or seventy years old. She has heavy crow's feet, but she is in good spirits. She has black hair up. High above, with a bit of mystery, she was looking at Altaïr at that moment.

Because Altaïr's expression seemed surprised when he saw her, and then it even turned into surprise.

Of course, Professor McGonagall didn't know, because when she saw Professor McGonagall herself, a sudden voice suddenly appeared in Altaïr's mind.

Doorbell!

It is detected that the host has successfully contacted an important plot character in the world of Harry Potter and the system is on!

The host is asked to choose the artifact that needs to be created as soon as possible.

"Artifact? What artifact?"

Altaïr, caught by surprise, did not have time to think, he only knew that he had a golden finger, and this golden finger could only be activated after coming into contact with the main characters of the Harry Potter plot.

Because this is the world of Harry Potter!

"Mr. Altaïr Shelby?"

The professor looked at Shelby and asked curiously:

"You seem...a little surprised."

"Yes, Professor McGonagall."

Altaïr came to his senses and gave Professor McGonagall a gentleman's salute.

"You must understand that in legends, the images of witches are relatively evil. They are often accompanied by death and curses. To be honest, before this, I always thought that you..."

Altaïr said, smiling shyly.

"I really saw you and found that you are completely different from what I imagined. Although you look very serious, I can feel your kindness, which is enough to surprise me."

After hearing Altaïr's words, Professor McGonagall had a shocked expression on her face.

She looked at Altaïr and then smiled.

"Thank you, Altaïr."

The conversation between the two puzzled the people on the sidelines. There was a hint of vigilance in Michael's eyes. He seemed to have heard what Altaïr was talking about about witches.

Could this supposed distinguished guest be a witch?

Poor Altaïr must have been deceived by this woman!

Michael seemed unhappy and was about to speak when he heard Altaïr inviting the woman to the castle mansion, after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't speak and just winked at his brother Jimmy.

Jimmy nodded calmly and the group got into the car heading to the castle in a strange atmosphere.

Yes, as Shelby Manor is a bit big, you usually take a scooter from the castle entrance.

Of course, Professor McGonagall and Altaïr were in the same car, with Michael driving the car and Jimmy sitting in the passenger seat.

"This... Professor McGonagall, I wonder which university she studied at?"

Jimmy looked at Mag through the rearview mirror and asked.
