Jiang Yue sat by the window, gazing at the scenery outside. Sunlight shone on her face. Her classmates around her were talking about their grades and where they would go for the holidays, but Jiang Yue couldn't muster any interest. She had transmigrated to this world a year ago, into the body of an orphan who had died suddenly. After receiving her own memories and the world's plot, she realized that she had entered the world of Harry Potter.
After checking, she discovered that she had magic. Just as Jiang Yue was waiting to be accepted into Hogwarts, a couple came to the orphanage to adopt a child. Then, by a twist of fate, they took a liking to Jiang Yue and wanted to adopt her.
When Jiang Yue learned about this, she originally wanted to refuse, but refusing suddenly would not fit her previous character. After all, the original owner really wanted to find a family. Besides, the couple who were adopting the child were American Chinese. Jiang Yue had seen them and confirmed that they genuinely wanted to adopt and there was no other nonsense involved. After thinking about it, she agreed.
After completing the formalities, Jiang Yue went home with her adoptive parents. After staying at home for two months, Jiang Yue had integrated into the family. The couple wanted Jiang Yue to stay at home with them every day, but Jiang Yue was still young and it wouldn't be good if she didn't go to school. After asking Jiang Yue's opinion, they arranged for her to attend a primary school near their home. For the first few months, Jiang Yue's mother was afraid that she would not be used to it, so she picked her up from school every day.
It wasn't until Jiang Yue explicitly stated that she would go to and from school with her neighbor, Hermione, and wouldn't need to be picked up or dropped off anymore that her family reluctantly agreed. Jiang Yue knew that they had secretly followed her several times, and she had even memorized the license plate of their car. Jiang Yue was helpless about this, and they only felt relieved after they were sure that Jiang Yue could handle it herself.
"Jiang Yue, let's go home!"
Jiang Yue glanced at Hermione waving at her from the classroom door, raised her wrist to check the time, and realized she was more than ten minutes late. She packed her little backpack, slung it over her shoulder, and headed for the door. Hermione saw Jiang Yue's actions, ran up to her, and hugged her arm, saying, "Hehe, the teacher was a bit busy, so I waited a little longer."
After saying that, she stretched out her hand to indicate a little distance. Jiang Yue didn't say anything, and the two of them walked towards the school bus. Since their families were neighbors, of similar age, and attended the same school, in the same class, and even sat next to each other, their relationship naturally became good.
The most important thing is that they share a little secret. This goes back to when Jiang Yue first came to this world. She was quite interested in magic when she first arrived at this house, but she was afraid of hurting people by practicing at home, so she went to a secluded corner in the park to practice. Hermione happened to come here to play one day and saw something floating in Jiang Yue's hand. Hermione initially thought that she was the only one with this ability. Then she showed the ability to Jiang Yue, and after that, the two became people who shared the same little secret.
After returning home, they had a sumptuous dinner. Hermione came over to play with Jiang Yue. You know, our know-it-all has very few friends. This is probably due to the pressure from being a top student. Almost no one likes to play with top students. It's not that there's anything wrong with top students, but when you play with them, you can't answer when your family asks why they are doing so well in their studies.
After going to Jiang Yue's room, Hermione rolled around on her bed twice, then asked Jiang Yue, who was changing clothes, "Jiang Yue, are you busy tomorrow? Do you want to go to the library to study together? And what are your plans for this holiday? If not, let's go to the secret base to practice magic together!"
While Jiang Yue was changing her clothes, Hermione rattled off a whole bunch of things: "I'm not going. My parents are planning to take me shopping for some autumn clothes tomorrow. Do you want to come along?"
"Oh, I'm not going. My mom just bought me some clothes recently. Isn't your dad going to work tomorrow? Is your family clinic closed tomorrow?"
Like Hermione, Jiang Yue's family also runs a dental clinic. They are not only in the same industry but also neighbors. Logically speaking, those in the same industry are rivals, but the two families have a good relationship. This is mainly because London is a large city with many dental clinics, and the two clinics are not next to each other, so there is no question of them competing for business.
"The street is undergoing plumbing and electrical repairs tomorrow, so everyone will have to close for a day. They might not even be able to fix it in a day, you know how inefficient they are." Jiang Yue, after changing her clothes, pouted at Hermione and shrugged.
"Okay, what about the day after tomorrow? Everything should be fine by then, right? I'd also like you to give me some pointers on whether I'm practicing that 'something spell' correctly! I feel like my magic power has increased recently, and levitating objects can last longer too."
"It's a breathing technique. Let's wait until the day after tomorrow. I'll come find you then."
Jiang Yue has been here for a year now. Although she hasn't made any significant progress due to a lack of information, she has managed to develop a breathing technique that is harmless to the body and can accelerate the growth of magical power, thanks to Bai Ze's deductions. Hermione saw Jiang Yue practicing at home a few times and, after being pestered by her, taught her the technique, while also instructing her not to spread it.
In fact, Jiang Yue only had a vague understanding of how to increase magic power in the Harry Potter world. It wasn't described in the books. It basically increased with age, and the rate of increase was uncertain. Some people increased more, some less. The power of spells also varied from person to person. Mad-Eye Han said that when a student used the same Avada Kedavra spell, it only made him bleed from the nose. Some people have summarized that it seems to be related to emotions.
Bai Ze's research indicates that this magic is essentially a low-end version of chaotic magic, highly subjective, and cannot be studied using the methods for studying normal energy. Further in-depth research is only possible after obtaining Hogwarts, given the size of Hogwarts' library. Bai Ze can collect it and study it slowly. Currently, Jiang Yue's soul is only one or two times stronger than an ordinary person's; at most, she has a photographic memory, and her intelligence is just so-so. How can she compare to the Bai Ze she meticulously crafted?
Time flies when you're on holiday, and it's already the end of July. The two families got together again today after a long time. The adults had a barbecue party in the yard. Jiang Yue and Hermione helped their mothers clear the table. When the first batch of steaks was ready, the two gentlemen cut the beef and distributed it to the four ladies. The fathers received sweet kisses from their mothers and sweet thanks from their children, and then continued to be chefs with big smiles on their faces.
Just as everyone was happily enjoying their meal, two round-faced, chubby Scottish chickens slowly landed on the table. After folding their wings, they handed letters to Hermione and Jiang Yue respectively. The owls looked at Jiang Yue with their large amber eyes, clucked a few times, and then looked at the raw beef on the table. Jiang Yue miraculously understood what the owls meant, picked up a piece of meat, and fed it to them: "Do you want to eat this?"
