Chapter 2 Lucky Boy Mike and the Letter
Mike's full name is Mike Townley.
He could have been considered a successful person, if the standard of a successful person is to be rich.
It must be said that Mike is lucky. After all, it is not easy for a gangster who has lived in an orphanage since childhood and has been wandering on the streets since he was driven out of the orphanage at the age of 14 to buy a big villa in the wealthy area of New York and get married and have children.
All this is due to his amazing luck.
Mike is like the illegitimate child of the goddess of luck. From the day he was on the street, as long as he participated in a fight or a gunfight, no matter how tragic the scene was, Mike would be unscathed.
So people who knew Mike gave Mike a well-deserved nickname, Lucky Boy Mike.
But luck did not seem to always favor Mike, or his luck was used up in that bank robbery.
Mike, who successfully robbed a bank and had a huge amount of wealth, encountered all kinds of shit in his middle age. His daughter was determined to make an A-movie and his wife cheated on him every now and then. These things were trivial. The most unfortunate thing was that his former enemies found him who had changed his name.
Finally, in the middle of the night of April 21, 2019, with a gunshot, the lucky boy Mike fell down.
But when he woke up again, he was surprised to find that the goddess of luck did not seem to abandon him. He was reborn in a thin and wounded little kid, and he went back to 1991.
After reading the child's memory, Mike found something unusual. This little kid who was also named Mike but had no surname actually had superpowers!
Although he couldn't control this ability, and because of this ability he was called a monster, and was beaten to death by the children who excluded him.
But now all this belongs to Mike. Mike doesn't care about the tragic experience of this child. Mike has seen too many pitiful things at the bottom of society, so much that he has become numb.
If this body didn't have superpowers, Mike might have to go out and join a gang or enter an orphanage known as a concentration camp for gangsters. I believe that with the experience of the previous life, Mike will definitely be able to make a good living there.
After using these people to obtain a lot of money, he can retire bravely and work in the investment industry to completely clean himself up. And Mike has already had several investment plans that are sure to make money. When he was a rich man, he heard others brag about many successful experiences.
What? You said studying?
You let a gang leader and a bank robber study hard and improve every day? Don't be funny, you have to know that what Mike hates most is studying. Even the basic English reading and writing were learned by Mike after he became rich, just to avoid embarrassment.
Moreover, this is in the UK.
In such an old capitalist country, it is impossible for a wandering orphan to succeed by studying. It is good enough to be able to support himself.
In Mike's words, in such a society, people like him can only succeed by taking crooked paths. If you follow the rules of those superiors, you will never get ahead.
But the superpower disrupted Mike's plan. If he had such power in his previous life, he would not have been killed by a pistol. If he had such power in his previous life, he would have succeeded long ago and would not have needed to take the risk of robbing a bank.
So Mike was determined to master this power, even if it took several years or even more than ten years. Because as long as he mastered the power, Mike was confident that he could quickly gather wealth and power in a short period of time.
So, in the six months since he came to this world, Mike stayed in the garbage house every day to exercise his abilities. The way to exercise was also very simple. He just needed to stabilize his emotions and stare at
the wind chime on the roof and think about making it move. Mike still had some experience in controlling emotions. These experiences made him stabilize his abilities quickly and he would no longer set the hut on fire from time to time. But Mike never made any progress in making the wind chime move. Mike thought it was because his idea of making the wind chime move was not firm enough.
And just last night, Mike found that he seemed to have succeeded.
When fighting with the big black dog, the short stick followed his own wishes and became faster and stronger. Excited Mike returned to his garbage house and began his daily practice. Sure enough, the wind chime swinging method that had never been successful was successful.
At this time, in the garbage house.
Mike woke up, and the moment he opened his eyes, the wind chime on the roof caught his eye.
Mike laughed when he saw the wind chime. In the past six months of practice, Mike almost fell asleep looking at this wind chime every night, and woke up looking at this wind chime in the morning. Although this wind chime was made of broken glass and fishing line that Mike collected, Mike had decided that he would take this wind chime away from this ghost place and keep it until he died.
That's right, Mike decided to leave the garbage house.
Since he has basically mastered superpowers, it's time to make money. And his body has been well in the past six months. With his current height, the hyenas in the welfare home will not take him as prey.
However, just as Mike was looking at the wind chime and fantasizing about marrying a gangster princess, becoming a gangster godfather, and reaching the peak of his life, he found a letter lying next to his pillow.
Mike was stunned. Although his garbage house was simple, he had good protection measures. Since the other party could put a letter next to his pillow without anyone noticing, it meant that the other party had the ability to kill him without anyone noticing. Thinking
of this, Mike took the envelope and opened it without hesitation. Since the other party came to deliver a letter, it would not harm him for the time being. Otherwise, if there was any purpose, he could just do it while he was asleep.
After a while, Mike finished reading the letter and sat on the mattress blankly.
"Hogwarts... Isn't that my youngest son Jimmy's favorite Harry Potter?"
Because of Jimmy, Mike, as a father, was forced to read the complete works of Harry Potter to Jimmy several times, and also accompanied him to watch all the Harry Potter movies. Mike was so familiar with this "children's book" that he couldn't be more familiar.
At this time, Mike finally understood what happened to him. His superpower was simply the magic riot of the little wizard.
You know, magic riot is very dangerous. Many little wizards died under magic riot. And he actually regarded it as a superpower and actively triggered it to try to control it?
As expected, the goddess of luck still favors me, otherwise I would have been blown to death.
At this time, a piece of parchment fell from the Hogwarts admission notice in Mike's hand.
Dear Mr. Townley.
In view of your special situation, we will send someone to your residence to answer your questions and give you the necessary help.
Please note that our staff will arrive at your residence at 8:30 am on July 16, 1991.
After reading the note, Mike subconsciously glanced at the electronic watch without a strap beside his pillow, and the number on it showed 8:31.
"Mr. Mike Townley, it seems that you have read the letter we sent you." Mike
looked over and saw that the door of the garbage house had been opened at some point, and an old man with a white beard was standing outside the door with a smile.
My God, this is... is this Dumbledore? ! The
stubborn Mike didn't pay attention to the envelope at all, otherwise he would have seen it clearly written on it: To Mr. Mike Townley on the mattress in the garbage house, in the grove on the west side of North Yankton Town, London.
