Hogwarts Wocao

"Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Minerva McGonagall. I am the Head of Gryffindor House at Hogwarts, and you may call me Professor McGonagall."

As soon as Gemini returned to the orphanage, he saw Professor McGonagall, who had been waiting for him.

Because Muggle-born students enrolled every year, someone needed to communicate with the Muggle families who had never been exposed to the magical world, helping them purchase the necessary books and other items for school. Therefore, this time of year was always the busiest for Professor McGonagall.

"My name is Gemini Fox. Hello, it's an honor to meet you, Professor McGonagall." Gemini bowed slightly and gently towards Professor McGonagall, his posture as elegant as a young gentleman's.

Professor McGonagall's eyes flashed with a hint of a smile as she looked at Gemini.

She had a very good first impression of Gemini. Polite and handsome people were always well-received everywhere.

"I assume you've received our letter, Mr. Fox," Professor McGonagall said. "You're a wizard, did you know?"

"I didn't," Gemini smiled. "But I can accept it."

"So, you agree to attend Hogwarts?" Professor McGonagall asked.

Gemini's attitude made her feel very comfortable. This trip hadn't encountered any trouble, and the entire process had been unexpectedly smooth.

Gemini nodded. "If it's to learn magic, then I'd be very willing."

Professor McGonagall finally smiled, her stern and rigid demeanor gone, her smile appearing very gentle. "Hogwarts is the greatest magical academy, and you will certainly love it there."

"Get ready. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning, and we'll go to Diagon Alley to buy your school supplies. Do you have any questions?"

Professor McGonagall asked.

Gemini shook his head. Too much talk leads to mistakes. There was no need for many words at this time. The only thing he needed to do was act like a normal child, preferably a well-behaved one.

After Professor McGonagall left, Gemini stood at the main gate of the orphanage for a long time without speaking.

The figure of the priest, the director, appeared behind Gemini. He looked at Gemini's back and let out a drunken hiccup. "So... you really plan to go to that... what do you call it..."

"Hogwarts."

"Right, Hog-fucking-warts."

Gemini: "..."

"You're the smartest child in the orphanage, Gemini," the priest director patted Gemini's small head. "And the one who gives me the least trouble. Ever since you were little, I haven't had to worry about you because you never needed it. You have your own goals and a clear understanding of yourself. You've even saved a considerable amount of wealth. I know that even this time, you've definitely prepared for your future."

Gemini looked up at the priest director. "Will you blame me? Uh... I mean, for me being considered an anomaly..."

"No," the priest smiled. "Nothing can stop a man from embarking on his life's journey. Not a priest, not even God."

"Isn't God omnipotent?" Gemini chuckled.

"Of course, when necessary, God is omnipotent."

The priest took a sip from a small flask and then nodded at Gemini, his eyes still hazy with drink. "But honestly, God won't blame you for becoming a wizard. After all, wizards are real. Although I believe God is also real, I haven't seen him, and I'm not familiar with him..."

The director mumbled and turned to leave. Gemini grinned as he watched the old man's dazed state.

Early the next morning, as soon as Gemini finished breakfast, Professor McGonagall's figure appeared at the orphanage entrance.

"Good morning, Professor McGonagall."

"Good morning, Mr. Fox." Professor McGonagall's lips curved into a smile as she nodded slightly at Fox. "Just as I thought. It seems that drunkard of a priest has no intention of accompanying you to Diagon Alley."

"Here, wizards are anomalies, but in Diagon Alley, it's wizard territory. I don't think he'd want to see a street full of wizards." Gemini smiled gently.

"That's right," Professor McGonagall laughed. "Now, follow me, Mr. Fox. Someone is already waiting for us."

As Professor McGonagall spoke, she moved aside. Gemini saw two cars parked at the other end of the street behind Professor McGonagall.

Through the window of one of the cars, Gemini saw Hermione, her face flushed red with anger.

What a coincidence... where in life do we not meet...

However, Gemini had anticipated this situation, so he remained composed and got into the car with Professor McGonagall.

"Lyle! You stood me up! You swore you'd wait for me!"

As soon as they got into the car, Hermione couldn't help but exclaim, her voice full of anger. She glared at Gemini furiously.

"You... know Lyle?" Gemini looked at Hermione, utterly bewildered.

Hermione glared at Gemini, her cheeks puffed out. "Stop pretending."

"Miss Granger," Professor McGonagall turned to Hermione. "This is Mr. Fox, Gemini Fox."

"My brother is named Lyle." Gemini smiled gently at Hermione, then put on a dejected expression. "But sadly, he doesn't have magical talent."

Hermione froze. Had she really mistaken someone? Are these two twins?

Realizing her mistake, Hermione quickly apologized to Gemini. "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I think I must have mistaken you for someone else."

Beside Gemini, Professor McGonagall gave him a strange look.

She had to memorize the information of all the new students. Gemini didn't have a brother.

It looked like Gemini had played a trick on Hermione and given a fake name.

He seemed so refined and gentle, but he turned out to be quite a handful...

Gemini noticed Professor McGonagall's gaze and gave a sheepish smile. Professor McGonagall shook her head helplessly.

"You really should discipline your brother. I saw him hitting someone in my garden yesterday." Hermione chattered on to Gemini about yesterday's events, but Gemini let her words go in one ear and out the other, completely ignoring her.

"He swore to me, swore by Lyle's name, that if he left, Lyle would die a horrible death!" Hermione said indignantly. "Now I want to see if that oath will come true."

"It won't, Miss Granger," Professor McGonagall said, her expression showing a hint of impatience, perhaps finding Hermione a bit too loud. "I must tell you something, Mr. Fox has no blood-related brothers. So even if the Lyle you're talking about died a hundred times, it wouldn't affect him."

Hermione was taken aback at her words, seeming to ponder Professor McGonagall's statement. After a few seconds, her entire face turned red at a visible speed, and her gaze towards Gemini was practically bursting with anger.

In the front seat, Mr. and Mrs. Granger burst into laughter. Gemini rested his chin on his hand, looking out the window, ignoring Hermione's furious and embarrassed gaze.

"That liar!"

The little girl trembled with rage.
