Escape?
The Andrews looked at each other.
Fortunately, Mr. Andrew reacted quickly enough.
"That's right. Everyone's worried that war will break out, and London is no longer safe. That's why we came to live in the countryside for a while.”
Twain nodded.
He deliberately lured Mr. Andrew to lie so that he would no longer doubt his identity.
Sure enough, the Andrus family, whose doubts had disappeared, immediately became enthusiastic about Twain.
Especially Mary. At the age of thirteen, she already knew how to appreciate men.
From the moment Twain put down the box and sat down on the sofa, Mary's eyes never left Twain.
Tang En politely thanked Mrs. Andrew after receiving the hot tea.
While drinking tea, both parties started chatting.
"Mr. Andrew, is there only three of you in your family?”
"And my youngest daughter, Ella. She's not feeling well and is resting in the attic.”
Mr. Andrew answered calmly.
Mrs. Andrew and Mary were different. When they heard the name Ella, their expressions changed.
Mrs. Andrew looked uneasy.
Mary rolled her eyes and stared at Twain, who knew what she was thinking.
Mr. Andrew felt that it was necessary to discuss with his wife. He absolutely could not let Twain find out about Ella.
After excusing himself, he called Mrs. Andrew to the kitchen.
Only Twain and Mary were left in the living room.
Mary smoothed her hair and took the initiative to sit beside Twain.
"Actually, we didn't come here to take refuge.”
Twain pretended to be curious as he looked at Mary.
Mary was secretly pleased.
She looked back at the kitchen and made sure that her parents would not come out anytime soon. Then, she pretended to be mysterious and explained to Twain about her sister, Ella.
" I swear I've never seen so many owls in my life. They threw envelopes at my house. Dad locked the windows and doors, but it was useless. He had no choice but to bring us here.”
"But thankfully, things returned to normal here. No more owls.”
Although Twain pretended to be surprised, he was not surprised.
After he accepted Dumbledore's commission to visit Ella's family, the Hogwarts owls stopped sending letters of admission to Ella.
Ella's acceptance letter was quietly lying in his pocket.
"Your sister-"
"She's not sick at all!"
Mary leaned closer to Twain and lowered her voice.
"She's always been strange since she was young, and strange things always happen around her. Her father thought that she was the cause of this incident, so he locked her in the attic.”
Twain looked thoughtful.
Many wizards would experience mana riots when they were young, and Ella was one of them.
Mary had wanted to reveal more inside information and take the opportunity to get closer to Twain.
At this moment, he heard footsteps behind him.
Mr. and Mrs. Andrew returned together with a surprising piece of news.
Originally, the family had planned to go shopping in town in the afternoon, but because of Twain's arrival, they decided to bring forward the purchase, so they could send Twain to town on the way.
"Mom, didn't we agree to keep Twain for lunch?”
Mrs. Andrew tried her best to comfort her daughter.""Honey, I just went to the kitchen and realized that we don't have enough food. We have to go to town.”
Mary did not want to be separated from Twain so soon, so she immediately proposed to go together.
"No, you have to stay with Ella. She's 'sick,' you know?”
The person who spoke was Mr. Andrew.
Mary pouted her lips in dissatisfaction.
Mr. Andrew ignored his stepdaughter and turned to look at Twain.
"We'll set off now. Your parents must be very anxious in town.”
"Please wait a moment, Mr. Andrew.”
Twain reached into his pocket and pulled out his wand.
Mr. Andrew's face changed, but it was too late.
Just when their eyes met, Omniscient Insight had already been activated.
Twain took out his wand just to make it easier to cast the spell.
Silver memory fragments flew out from the eyes of the three members of the Andrew family.
Twain waved his wand and annihilated them one by one.
At this point, the memories of Twain in the Andrews family had all disappeared.
Taking advantage of the fact that the three of them were still under the control of Omniscient Insight, Twain continued to wave his wand.
Three Stunning Spells would be enough for the Andrews to sleep until the next morning.
After he was done, Twain picked up his suitcase and went straight upstairs.
In the attic, Ella had one ear pressed against the door.
She couldn't hear anything downstairs.
Her intuition told her that Twain's arrival was definitely related to those strange owl letters.
Because of this, she couldn't help but worry.
Twain looked about the same age as her. Could he convince her father?
The sound of footsteps on the stairs interrupted Ella's thoughts.
The footsteps stopped in front of the door. Ella stepped back nervously until she touched the attic window.
She did not hear the sound of the key unlocking the door, but the lock clicked and opened on its own.
Ella covered her mouth with both hands and stared wide-eyed at Twain carrying the box and pushing the door open to enter the room.
"Miss Ella Andrew, right? This is for you."
Twain put down the box and took out a letter from his pocket.
Ella glanced at the envelope and immediately recognized that it was the letter sent by the owl.
He reached out and took the envelope. It was written in emerald green magic water: Newcastle, Payton Farm wooden house, attic, Ella Andrew.
Ella raised her head in disbelief.
"How did you know I lived in the attic?”
Twain shrugged.
"My suggestion is that you can finish reading the letter first.”
Ella opened the envelope, took out the letter, and quickly read it.
Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and
Headmaster: Armando Dippet
Dear Miss Andrew, We are pleased to inform you that you have been admitted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Enclosed is a list of books and equipment required.
The semester was set to begin on September 1st.
Ella raised her head again, her eyes flashing with uncontrollable excitement.
she said carefully.
"Is this real? Am I dreaming? Did I really get accepted into a magic school?”
"It seems that you are not completely ignorant about the Magic World. Your mother must have told you about it, right?”
Ella nodded.
Before her mother passed away, she did tell her that something big would happen when she was eleven.
Twain did not waste any time and went straight to the point.
"Now, can you tell me what the curse on your body is?”
——
Ella's character was based on the movie " Magic Cinderella." If you're interested in the movie, you can go and watch it. There's actually nothing interesting about the plot. It's mainly about the character.
