Hogwarts founder returns to campus

Chapter 7 The Leaky Cauldron

The Tonks family is a very harmonious wizarding family, although Mrs. Tonks is relatively strong, and she will often dictate to Tonks.

As for Salazar, Mrs. Tonks will always do it herself, and she personally selects and buys the accessories in the wardrobe.

And every meal will leave him a large piece of lamb chops, always worry about whether he is full, and prepare a glass of warm milk for him before going to bed.

The couple worked at the Ministry of Magic and their daughter, Nymphadora Tonks, was in Auror training, so Salazar spent a lot of time alone at home.

It's not that he doesn't want to go out, but that the Ministry of Magic is still keeping a basic observation of him. It's easy to detect the unique apparition sound around the house after the Tonks family went out.

But this will not hinder Salazar's normal life, he does not need to go out now.

There are still many books that Kingsley bought for him that he has not finished reading, and those ordered newspapers and periodicals will be delivered to his new residence on time.It's a pity that the Muggle newspapers couldn't reach the house where he was.

So far, nothing surprised him in the wizarding world, but the progress made by Muggles made him feel incredible.

Mr. Tonks is a Muggle-born wizard, so he also knows the situation of the Muggle world very well.

During the conversation with Mr. Tonks, Salazar knew that the Muggles had invented an incredible weapon of destruction—the nuclear bomb.

Although he can't understand the specific production principles of nuclear bombs, in some documentaries and movies, he can truly understand the horror of this weapon.

In the movie "Love in Hiroshima", the mushroom cloud that instantly wiped out 7 people reminded him of the prophecy Hai Erbo told him before reincarnation.

This mushroom cloud also appeared in the prophecy, as well as a palm-sized magical box that glowed and stored countless knowledge.

Although Salazar hadn't seen the magical box yet, Tonks still had some Muggle creations in his house, such as refrigerators, air conditioners, TV sets, and washing machines, which surprised him.

Muggles don't know magic, but they use their ingenuity, using a power called science, to create many magical tools.

Salazar is now optimistic about the future of Muggles. At the same time, because the time for Hogwarts to start is getting closer, the changes in the wizarding world over the past thousand years are also waiting for his discovery.

Although, when Dumbledore left two weeks ago, he mentioned that he would arrange a leading teacher, but there has been no news...

On a sunny morning, a Hogwarts owl came to the window with a parchment letter. Tonks with green hair opened the window and stuffed a piece of bread for the owl before he got the letter. letter.

"Salazar! It's a letter from Hogwarts! It must be that the Auror training is too tiring. I have only graduated for a year! But it feels like I graduated from Hogwarts a few years ago."

Tonks shouted, slapping the envelope in front of Salazar.

"Dora! Can you play a leading role in front of Salazar? Do you want him to think that all the Aurors in the Ministry of Magic are like you?" Mrs. Tonks yelled, and shoveled a poached egg into Donkers. Keith's dinner plate.

After Tonks finished his breakfast, he looked at Salazar with those big beautiful eyes and asked.

"The letter said to meet at the Leaky Cauldron at nine o'clock today." Salazar said after stuffing the letter back into the envelope.

"Nine o'clock?" Tonks glanced at the clock hanging on the refrigerator, "Then you have to prepare quickly, there are less than 10 minutes left."

"This letter was sent too late." Mrs. Tonks complained. "How is it? Are you full? Do you want me to prepare something for you?"

"No need, thank you!"

Salazar quickly refused. In fact, Mrs. Tonks had already stuffed a piece of bread, five sausages, and two poached eggs into his dinner plate, and he felt a bit full now.

When he got dressed and walked to the first floor, the Tonks family was also ready to go. They usually go to the Ministry of Magic through the Floo network.

"Andromeda, you and Dora go first. I'll take Salazar to the Leaky Cauldron." Mr. Tonks said.

"Mr. Tonks, I think I can go to the Leaky Cauldron by myself. I know the name and I'm afraid you'll be late," said Salazar.

He watched the Tonks family use the Floo network every day, so he was familiar with it.

"Don't worry, the Ministry of Magic and the Leaky Cauldron are in Westminster. I'll take you there and Apparate. It'll be quick."

Mr. Tonks sprinkled a handful of Floo powder into the fireplace, and when the flames turned emerald green, he said, "You go first, and you must be right!"

When Salazar was about to step into the fireplace, Mr. Tonks ordered again:

"Don't worry too much, the fireplace is cleaned very clean, you must make it clear, otherwise it may be teleported to other places."

Salazar nodded. In fact, he still had some expectations. The magical product of the Floo Network only appeared in the thirteenth century, so he hadn't used it either.

"The Leaky Cauldron."

In the fireplace, the originally unbearably hot flames became warm, and as he called out the place name, he felt as if he was being sucked into a hollow, his body seemed to be spinning rapidly, and he could still hear a huge whistling sound.

After going through one fireplace after another, he finally walked out of a dirty and dark fireplace.

It can be vaguely seen by the blurred light that there is a bar directly opposite, and there are a few tables and chairs in the corner. At the end on the right is a burning candle holder, and a wooden back door can also be seen.

"Oh...it's a new face." A twisted voice came from the direction of the flickering lights in the distance.

With the sound of shambling slippers, a wizard appeared in front of Salazar.

Salazar quickly adapted to the dim environment, and he could clearly see the appearance of the wizard in front of him: the top of his head was shiny, his face was full of wrinkles, his teeth seemed to have fallen out, and his mouth was open like a plate. Shiny walnuts.

"Just call me Tom, you have to lean aside, there is another guest coming." Tom reminded.

"Good morning, Tom." Mr. Tonks said, stepping out of the fireplace, and looking at his watch, "will you take care of the baby for me? I'm going to be late."

"Of course, all the best."

Salazar followed Mr. Tonks out of the Leaky Cauldron and quickly scanned his surroundings.

There are people coming and going around, a big bookstore is on the left, a record store is on the right, and there is a street sign in the distance that reads: Charing Cross Road.

"See you tonight, Salazar." Mr. Tonks lowered the brim of his top hat, and with a soft sound, his body quickly spun and shrunk, and finally disappeared.
