Chapter 28 Hogwarts Here I Come
While Kane was building a magical industrial fortress in the underground world, he did not neglect interpersonal communication.
The boring loss he suffered in the previous life made him brood. In this life, he is planning to make more friends of the opposite sex. It is also possible to open a special project to study women's psychology.
Of course, since he did it so deliberately, he has actually fallen behind.
He didn't think it was low EQ, plus the double impact of occupational diseases.
However, he is a bit funny in this aspect, and the relationship between people is still very normal.
For example, he goes to greet the Lower Dursleys every year.
One day in December, he will come to the door.
Except for the first year in Dursley's office, the next two years were spent at Dursley's house.
He'd make up for Dudley's and Harry's birthday presents, and an early Christmas present.
The Dursleys would also get presents, not necessarily expensive, but the kind that would show ostentation and be extremely difficult to come by under normal circumstances.
So these two are looking forward to Kane's arrival more than their children. After all, the gift is enough for the two of them to show off in front of neighbors and colleagues for half a year. They themselves rarely notice such cost-effective and tasteful items.
He would talk business with Vernon before dinner, gossip after dinner, and leave around 21:00.
This has become a pattern. It seems rigid, but the British are used to this kind of rigidity, which is convenient for them to make appropriate arrangements, making the whole meeting process more delicate and warm.
The Dursley family can get about 200,000 pounds from Kane every year, which makes their life very nourishing, and they also attach great importance to this relationship.
More importantly, Kane is very good to Dudley.
Although the couple love Dudley very much and dote on them very much, they actually know that Dudley's IQ is not enough. However, the dream nightcap that Kane gave Dudley changed this situation.
In fact, this thing should be called a dream learning machine. It is fun and can gain insights into life. Dudley has become more and more sensible after being trained by this kind of equipment that entertains and educates, and has gradually developed a good habit, and is developing in the direction of excellent quality.
Dudley and Kane were about the same physical age. They were both nine years old in 1988. Because of their lack of IQ, they studied late for a year and were in the same class as Harry in primary school, so they were able to enter secondary school in the same year.
Although he is still in the same grade now, he is obviously more like a senior. He is brave and responsible. Although he is childish, he can make some sense. He is the king of children nearby. He likes to exercise, likes to play board games, and loves to be a king. Leaders like captains have also made significant progress in their studies.
The Dursleys saw it and were overjoyed, and planned to send Dudley to Eton College in the future. At the same time, I am also very grateful to Kane. In recent years, the relationship has become more serious, and there are usually letters.
In 1989, Kane also arranged for their family and Harry to play at the manor in Texas for a month.
Kane has been doing well in secular business. After all, he has the foresight of later generations on the development of civilization and advanced technology. Whether it is investment or business, he is very sharp.
The Dursleys had a great time here, while Dudley and Harry completed too many firsts in their lives, including grooming the pony, cleaning up horse manure and so on.
These are good life experiences, which let them deeply understand the relationship between giving and harvesting, as well as that kind of happiness.
Kane also invited them to play in a western-style theme park. Of course, it is not as high-end and realistic as {Western World}, but it is not bad. Everyone had a great time.
Dudley was ten years old this year, and his ability to imitate was quite strong. Wearing a cowboy hat, holding a straw stick in his mouth, and touching a gun in one hand, Dudley had already looked like a western cowboy, and because he liked to exercise, he was strong but not obese. The temperament is also good.
In comparison, Harry hasn't changed much, he is still thin and looks elegant, but his short-sightedness is not severe,
I don't wear glasses most of the time, and I am more cheerful, pay more attention to communication, and love to ask why.
Harry still didn't like Dudley very much, not because Dudley bullied him, but because Dudley seemed rough and aggressive, domineering and giving orders.
But at least Harry is quite convinced of some of Dudley's abilities. Dudley has become the leader of the boys in the class from the kid king in the neighborhood, and he knows everyone in other classes. The graders play football together or something.
Dudley likes to play rugby, saying that it is a confrontation between men, but unfortunately he is too young, so he can only organize it by himself.
Harry also likes sports very much. His father inherited a good athletic talent to him, but he is destined not to like sports such as collisions. His body, strength, and endurance are not good enough. The talent for skill racing.
Harry prefers Uncle Cullen, that is, Kane. Although he doesn't have many opportunities to get along with him, Kane is knowledgeable and willing to talk to him about wizards.
All that Harry knew about the wizarding world was obtained from Kane.
Among them, he believes that the most valuable knowledge is how to learn.
Good learning methods allowed him to get a good ranking in school, which also enhanced his self-confidence, and he believed in Kane's words more and more.
Kane made him understand the concept of literacy, which is not easy for a nine-year-old.
Kane told him that what you need most now is to build an engine that is good at learning. This engine is composed of literacy, reading habits, study habits, learning methods and other components. With it, after you become a wizard, you can digest knowledge most efficiently and become outstanding.
As time entered the 1990s, Kane became more and more busy with his affairs.
Busy with research, manufacturing, laying out information networks, tempering his own art, improving his strength, etc., a lot of things he thinks are necessary and meaningful.
But this year he was eleven years old, and during the summer vacation, he received an invitation letter from Hogwarts.
At that time, he was having breakfast with Catherine. This is a daily family program. Both of them are very busy, but they will try their best to keep sharing breakfast and dinner together. It is an interaction that maintains and enhances emotions.
Kane drank the last sip of milk, picked up the letterhead, looked at the cover, and said, "What was the mood of the greatest white wizard writing this letter? He should know that I didn't go to primary school. Is it a public school or an aristocratic school, but he is a genius with an extraordinary IQ."
It was not opened, so it was put aside, and a food box was picked up, and some delicious meat strips were fed to the delivery owl. The owl thanked cheerfully before flying away.
Catherine, who regained her ladylike demeanor and a bit more professional woman demeanor, put down the teacup and said with a smile, "Probably because of the generous sponsorship fee that the Shafik family gave the Order of the Phoenix every month, Let's put up with the rumored genius who is quite rebellious."
"Well, it will be difficult for him and other professors to tolerate me."
"They'll also wonder about your appetite."
"Well, one is worth seven, they are all like me, and Dumbledore will have to cry to the school trustees about increasing the meal budget."
"It doesn't matter, the generous Shafik will take the initiative to make up for it. Some time ago, I ran into Dumbledore at the Ministry of Magic. He talked about Remus Lupine. From what I heard, he hoped that I could help him."
"Oh, that one, born in the 1960s, at the same age as you, was bitten by Fenrir Greyback when he was four years old and became a werewolf. His recent situation is very embarrassing, or he has been That is true, but not a poor man, hardened and afflicted in his character."
It's not surprising that Catherine can talk eloquently about her son when she mentions her personally. Over the years, Kane's countless successes have given her an almost blind trust and admiration for him.
"My son is all-knowing and omniscient." Subconsciously, that's what she told herself.
"Would you like to meet him yourself?"
"Well, there can be. Speaking of which, among the foursome who called themselves 'Predators' back then, the most mature one is Lupine. For this, he deserves a chance to change his destiny." ...
