Disapparate! Xia Zhi had specially asked Mr. Wally for advice when he was recuperating in the Wally Family's manor.
Mr. Wally readily agreed. Anyway, as long as Xia Zhi didn't kidnap his daughter now, he could do whatever he wanted!
Xia Zhi, who was a Great Mage, had profound magic power. Learning this spell was as easy as drinking water.
"Pa!" They appeared in an alley not far from the Leaky Cauldron.
Summer Solstice, patiently waiting for Harry to finish his breakfast, led him toward the Leaky Cauldron.
Along the way, he told Harry about how he had tricked the Dursleys into signing a magical contract.
The thought of the Dursleys being duped made Harry fall over with laughter, and he thought it was a relief, even to the extent that the discomfort of Disapparating had subsided considerably.
However, Xia Zhi still hid the fact that he had bribed the Dursleys with money. He only said that he had been entrusted to transfer some child support to the Dursleys on behalf of his parents.
"You'll have to go back to the Dursleys for the summer holidays, but I'm sure they'll treat you better than Dudley. If they don't treat you well, tell me. Of course, you have to keep it a secret.”
"Thank you. Summer solstice." said Harry seriously.
"It's okay. Professor Dumbledore asked me to pick you up, but I think if there's a way to make you feel better in the future, why wouldn't I do it?”Xia Zhi blinked.
Now, Harry was extremely grateful to this boy who was almost the same age as him.
Xia Zhi looked at his grateful and worshipful eyes and nodded secretly. It was settled.
The first step of the plan was a success!
Only when one was grateful to a person would one develop a sense of trust.
At this time, Xia Zhi wanted to plant a seed of trust in Harry's heart.
As for how to make someone feel grateful towards you? It was enough to send charcoal in the snow.
Even if the other party knew that you had other intentions, they would not be able to help but feel grateful for your help.
Besides, a child as inexperienced as Harry would naturally not think that Summer Solstice had any ulterior motives.
They reached the Leaky Cauldron very quickly, and Harry was surprised to find that pedestrians passing by couldn't help but take a detour to avoid it.
"We're here!" Xia Zhi looked at the dilapidated wooden door of the Leaky Cauldron. "I'm staying here for the time being. I'm waiting for the official start of school on September 1st.”
Summer Solstice pushed open the wooden door of the Leaky Cauldron and led Harry inside.
A man who had almost lost all his hair and looked like a shriveled walnut saw Xia Zhi and greeted him,""Xia Zhi, you didn't spend the night at the bar last night. By the way, your hotpot is very good. If you don't mind, I'd like to put it on the menu of my bar.”
"Of course I don't mind, Tom. In fact, if you had it in your shop, I wouldn't have to make it myself.”
"That's great. If you order, I won't charge you…Eh? This…could it be…Harry Potter!”Tom was staring at the scar on Harry's forehead.
The originally bustling bar instantly quieted down. It was as if that name had some special magic.
Everyone's eyes fell on Harry.
Then, a group of people rushed up to shake his hand.
……
Although Harry had heard Xia Zhi say that he was famous in the Wizarding world, he had never known that it would be so exaggerated!
Xia Zhi had just spotted Professor Quirrell in the crowd, wearing the ridiculous scarf on his head and stuttering as usual. He even shook Harry's hand.
Xia Zhi was secretly vigilant.
Xia Zhi pulled Harry through the enthusiastic crowd and they crossed the bar into a small enclosed courtyard.
"Remember this, Harry, and you'll be able to find your way when you come by yourself.”Xia Zhi stood beside the trash can." Count three pieces up and two pieces in the horizontal direction.”
Xia Zhi took out his ebony wand and tapped the wall three times.
And then the bricks on the wall began to leap aside, one by one, and soon a passage appeared in front of Harry, and inside it was the bustling Diagon Alley!
Xia Zhi came in with a dumbfounded Harry."Do you still have the letter I gave you last night? He looked at the list of things to buy on the second page. We need to buy all these things later.”
Harry took out the letter and looked at the list of equipment names on the second page. Wand, Cauldron...
"Summer solstice," said Harry, looking up a little sheepishly,"I don't really have much money, the Dursleys never give me much pocket money, so-"
Xia Zhi took out a key and stuffed it into Harry's hand." Your parents left you a lot of money. This is the key to your vault. Well, let's go to Gringotts first.”
Summer Solstice led Harry in the direction of Gringotts, telling him stories about the goblins there.
Their figures gradually disappeared into the distance.
Suddenly, a cloaked person whose face could not be seen appeared in the shadows of an alley. He quietly watched their backs and disappeared after a moment.
Arriving at Gringotts, Summer Solstice told an idle goblin what he was here for and handed over Harry's vault key for it to examine.
Then Xia Zhi showed him the sealed letter Dumbledore had sent him. "Dumbledore sent me to retrieve the item in vault 713.”
Harry asked Xia Zhi what it was, and Xia Zhi said he didn't know, only that it was Professor Dumbledore's task.
Finally, a goblin called Griphook led them in a small carriage, which sped down the Gringotts Underground Railroad.
After opening his own vault, Harry was stunned. He had never known that he had so much money hidden under London.
Xia Zhi helped him pack up enough money for two terms and handed it to Harry. "One Galleon is equal to seventeen Sickles, and one Sickles is equal to twenty-nine Knuts…It's quite complicated, I had to memorize it for a long time.”
But Harry thought it was all right; it wasn't hard to remember.
