Rubik’s Cube of Heavens

Chapter 23: Embrace

Views:

Penello's house is located on the edge of downtown London. It is a normal two-story villa. The family belongs to the middle class, neither poor nor rich.

It took more than an hour to drive all the way, because the speed of the car basically did not exceed 60 mph, most of the time it was 40 mph, and sometimes it would slow down even more when encountering narrow streets.

Moreover, there are all kinds of courtesies and slow driving with other vehicles. Along the way, even the honking of cars between each other is rarely heard.

In terms of driving, Cowen had to be convinced by the British gentleman's style. I'm afraid that quick-tempered people and people with road rage syndrome can't live a life of driving in this country.

Along the way, Ke Wen also chatted with the Krivat family a lot. But he only revealed that he and Ollivander were adopted, and did not say that he was attacked or anything like that.

After all, this involves the dark side of the magic world, and it is not good to say those things in front of Penello.

At the same time, Cowen also had a general understanding of the Clearwater family.

As Cowen expected, before Penelope received the 'Hogwarts admission letter', Mr. Clearwater and Penelope knew nothing about the wizarding world.

Mrs. Clearwater's identity is unsurprisingly a wizard, but she hides her identity very well. She didn't confess her identity to her husband and daughter until Penello received the admission letter...

When they got home and parked the car, the three members of the Clearwater family enthusiastically guided Kewen into the house. Because they knew that Kewen had 'amnesia' through the chat on the road, they treated him with meticulous care.

It was even thought that Kewen knew nothing about the world of ordinary people, so almost wherever Kewen looked, the Crivatt family would explain to Kewen what it was and what it was for.

It wasn't until Penello couldn't wait to show off his collection to Cowen that the Crivatts stopped the science popularization and asked Penello to lead Cowen upstairs, while the couple got into the kitchen and began to prepare lunch.

'Appreciate' Penello's collection of fairy tale books and dolls; explain the story of Diagon Alley to Penello; teach Penello the 'floating spell'; go downstairs for dinner; and then teach Penello the 'floating spell' after the meal...

By the time Penello successfully mastered the 'Levitation Curse', it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

After all, Ke Wen didn't come out to be a guest sincerely, so he bid farewell.

"But, it's almost time for dinner." Penello was very reluctant: "Can I go back after dinner?"

"No, no." Ke Wen shyly refused: "Every evening, I have to go to the bookstore to help tidy up the bookshelves, as a price for my reading there every day, and today is almost time."

"But..." Penello wanted to say something else.

"Okay, Penelope." Mrs. Clearwater interrupted her daughter and said softly, "It's impolite not to disturb Ke Wen's work."

"That's right, Penelope." Mr. Clearwater also said with a smile: "It's almost a month before you leave school, if you miss Ke Wen, you can go to Diagon Alley and invite him to come to our house to play. "

"Who, who wants him!" Penello's pretty face was flushed visibly to the naked eye.

Ke Wen was a little embarrassed, saying that this is a topic that an eleven-year-old girl should understand...

Maybe it was too shy, so Penello didn't continue to keep Cowen, but Mr. Crivatt reached out and took off the coat from the hanger at the door.

Seeing this, Ke Wen quickly said, "Mr. Clearwater, you don't have to send me back."

"How can that be?" Mr. Clearwater said with a smile while putting on his clothes: "Since I brought you out, I will send you back safely."

"It's really unnecessary, sir." Ke Wen continued to refuse: "This place is not far from the main road, I can call the 'Knight Bus' after walking more than two hundred meters, and I will take the bus directly to the 'Leaky Cauldron Bar' 'of."

While speaking, Kewen looked at Mrs. Clearwater for help.

Seeing this, Mrs. Clearwater also nodded approvingly, and said to her husband: "That's right, and the 'Knight Bus' is relatively fast, it only takes about ten minutes."

"Really?" Penello interjected in surprise, "Then next time we go to Diagon Alley, can we also take the Knight Bus?"

"I don't suggest you take that." Mrs. Clearwater shook her head amusedly, and looked at Cowen.

Seeing this, Ke Wen explained to Penello with a wry smile: "To be honest, the riding experience of the Knight Bus is really bad for people to evaluate. Some people are used to riding, but I am still really not used to it, um... how to describe it?" Can you think about the feeling of getting into the washing machine... "

"That… "

"Okay, Penelope." Mrs. Clearwater interrupted her daughter again, persuading: "I know you still have a lot of questions, but you can ask me, or ask Ke Wen next time, let's not delay Ke Wen now." Wen's time, okay?"

"Okay mom." Penello agreed with some disappointment.

"Then I'll take you to the car." Mr. Clearwater said to Cowen.

"It's really unnecessary, sir." Ke Wen refused again: "It's a rare time to come out. I want to take a walk. You should have seen the environment in Diagon Alley today. There is no room for walking there."

"Haha, that's right." Mr. Clearwater laughed, his tone was sour, and he said with some contempt: "I thought the magic world would be so beautiful, but after seeing it with my own eyes today, it really is..."

"Hmm!" Mrs. Clearwater made a tone, looking at her husband with a somewhat unfriendly look.

"Uh...haha..." Mr. Clearwater immediately stopped talking and laughed awkwardly.

"Then I will bid farewell." Seeing this, Cowen spoke in a timely manner to relieve the atmosphere, and said goodbye: "Sir, Madam, Penello, I look forward to meeting you next time."

"Okay kid, you are welcome to play again anytime." Mrs. Clearwater responded.

"Yes, be careful on the road." Mr. Clearwater urged.

"Well, Kewen, I'll review the textbook at home in the past two days, and I'll come to you if I have any questions." Penelope said reluctantly.

"Of course." Ke Wen smiled and nodded: "You can also write to me and ask your owl to deliver the letter to me. Just fill in 'Ollivander's Wand Shop' as the address."

"Then after you receive the letter, you must reply to me as soon as possible." Penello urged.

Ke Wen assured: "Don't worry."

"Then goodbye." Penello said as he suddenly stepped forward and gave Cowen a hug.

Kewen was taken aback for a moment, and then he looked a little at a loss, which made the Crivatts and his wife laugh for a while...

Ask for collection, ask for monthly pass, ask for recommendation ticket, ask for investment~
