Out of caution and prudence, Albert poked the envelope a few times with the code controller and honesty detector before opening the letter to make sure there was nothing strange or black magic in it.
This is how he usually handles items sent by strangers.
Of course, before opening the envelope, remember to put on dragon skin gloves, because God knows what may be inside.
This was a letter from the United States. The sender was a wizard named Nicholas. Albert definitely didn't know him. This person should be an alchemist because he mentioned Sera Harris in the letter.
The other party directly invited him to the United States, but did not explain the reason in detail, which made Albert a little confused when he read the letter.
Not only that, the sender also reminded Albert at the end of the letter not to send the reply letter by owl, because the American wizarding world prohibits the use of owls to send letters, and doing so is likely to attract the attention of Muggles.
Are America's owls out of work
Are you kidding
How did this letter get here
Albert said he was a little confused.
In the letter, besides the invitation letter, there were two tickets.
Yes, tickets.
Tickets for King's Cross Station, platform seven and a half.
As far as Albert knew, Platform 7 and 1/2 was located between Platforms 7 and 8, from where one could take a long-distance train to the wizarding village on the European continent.
That's right, go to Europe, not to the United States.
Didn’t that guy invite me to America
Why is there such a ticket included
What puzzled Albert even more was that, in addition to this, there was another Floo Network ticket, a Floo Network permission ticket to the United States.
The specific time is July 18th at 11:40, Fireplace No. 17.
Moreover, the ticket did not mention the specific location, nor did it tell Albert where to get off and where to use the international Floo network. It did not mention it at all, which was simply suffocating.
All right!
Does this mean that Sera should take him there
Albert opened the letter that Serra sent him. There was nothing in the letter either. It just said that he was going to the United States to visit his friend Nicholas and invited Albert to go to the United States with him to meet the famous alchemist.
Just a simple meeting
Albert had his doubts, and neither Serra nor Nicholas elaborated in the letter.
Generally speaking, the shorter and more vague the letter, the more important it is, especially in this case, as they at least gave themselves a brief explanation.
Otherwise, the situation would be very abnormal.
What is the reason
In fact, it’s nice to stay at home during the summer vacation. It’s boring to run around in such hot weather, and it’s not like you’re going on vacation.
However, whether it was Bud or anyone else who came to find him, they obviously had their own purpose.
To expand your network
Or is it necessary to know Nicholas
Albert wrote his doubts on a piece of letter paper, then stuffed it into the envelope and sealed it.
Owls are a bit insufficient.
He sighed and didn't ask Sheila to deliver the letter immediately. Instead, he put the letter in the drawer and planned to wait until tomorrow.
Although it is not impossible to refuse directly, Albert still thinks it is better to ask. Maybe it can trigger some task.
Outside of Hogwarts School, the probability of triggering a panel task is always low, and the task difficulty is also relatively high.
The next morning, Albert was awakened by the cry of an owl.
When he opened his eyes and sat up, he found that there was a brown owl in his room, and it was squeezed on the owl shelf with Sheila.
The two owls were glaring at each other, and Albert was surprised that they didn't fight.
Albert walked to the desk and handed Hermione's letter to Sheila first, then took out two more letters and placed both of them on the desk.
I guess no one would have the same troubles as him!
The owl landed on the letter addressed to Bud Brod.
Albert took the letter and handed it to the owl, letting it leave with the envelope.
After putting the letter to Sera back into the cabinet, Albert washed up and went downstairs to prepare for breakfast when he heard scratching on Nia's door.
He raised his hand and knocked gently on the door. There was no other response in the room, so Albert quietly opened the door and let Tom out of the room.
Nia was still sleeping, and her sleeping posture was not very good.
Albert closed the door again, and the man and the cat went downstairs to have breakfast.
Daisy was frying bacon while Herb was reading today's newspaper. When he heard footsteps, he looked up and greeted Albert.
"Last night, someone sent me a letter inviting me..."
"Inviting you... Are they the so-called experts and professors again?"
Daisy, who had just put the fried bacon on a plate, glared at her son, obviously very sensitive about this matter.
Daisy didn't really want her son to run around. Although they believed in Albert's abilities, they were still worried about his young age.
"Well, I haven't decided yet. I'll tell you when I'm sure." Albert said vaguely. He didn't like bacon very much. It was really salty. He never ate it alone except for bacon sandwiches.
"Son, I believe in your ability, but we are still worried about you running around all the time." Herb put down the newspaper and said seriously, "If you want to go out, take the mirror with you and remember to contact us on time every day."
Daisy put her hands on her hips and glared at her husband with dissatisfaction. She thought Herb would stop Albert, but she didn't expect him to indulge his son like this.
So, Albert likes to run around during summer vacation now.
"Don't go out too long, Mom will worry." Herb added.
"Um."
Albert weighed the cat food and poured it into Tom's plate.
Tom looked at the food in his bowl, grunted twice in dissatisfaction, and started eating.
Albert returned to his seat and was about to make himself a bacon sandwich when he suddenly saw an owl flying in from the window. This very old owl seemed to have exhausted all its strength during the journey and almost fell headfirst on the table and died.
"This owl is very old. They are mistreating it."
Herb brought the food up in time and looked at the exhausted old owl on the table and protested to Albert.
"It's time for it to retire," Albert nodded in agreement.
What's the Weasley owl called
Albert no longer remembers.
He put the owl in a place to rest and prepared some water and food for it.
The letter was from the twins, reporting to him (showing off) their latest achievements, and also attached a few copies of the finished products. Finally, in the letter, they asked Albert to take some time to help them solve some problems they encountered.
