Chapter 200

Lu Ren's first day at The Burrow soon came to an end.

In the evening, everyone gathered in the living room after dinner and rested comfortably.The layout of the Weasley family's living room was very warm and comfortable, with a sofa and a few chairs placed in a small space.There is also a large fireplace for warmth and a large wooden radio in the living room.Of course, the most special item is a clock that does not tell the time.This clock can be used to show where everyone in the Weasley family is, or what state they are in: there are nine hands on the clock, each of which is engraved with the name of a Weasley family member.Places or states such as "home", "school", "work", "on the way", "missing", "hospital", "prison" and "mortal danger" are written where the numbers are on the face of an ordinary clock .

The Weasley family stayed in the living room with Lu Ren and Alice, listening to the songs of the famous witch singer Celestina Warbeck on the old radio.At this moment, the flames of the kitchen fireplace burst into flames.The needle belonging to Mr. Arthur in the living room also jumped from "work" to "home".

"Daddy's back!" said George, and everyone looked toward the kitchen.

There was a thin, bald man in the kitchen. He had the same fiery red hair as Fred and the others, and he was wearing a green robe. His face could be seen even across a room. tiredness.Immediately after he got out of the fireplace, he slumped on the kitchen chair, took off his glasses, and closed his eyes.

The person who came was the head of the family, Arthur Weasley.

"Harry has been warned by the Ministry of Magic." Mr. Arthur paused for a while, and the first sentence he spoke surprised everyone.

"What?" Mrs. Weasley couldn't sit still, "What's going on? Be careful!"

"It was Perkins who told me. He told me that the Ministry of Magic detected that someone had cast a levitation spell at 4 Privet Drive this evening... that's Harry's address, and Harry was the only wizard, so they A warning letter was sent to Harry."

"This is ridiculous, what if another wizard came to Harry's house and cast a spell?" Fred said with a frown.

"And it may be a spell cast by a non-human magical creature." Lu Ren added that he had already guessed the general truth of the matter.

Arthur rubbed his forehead: "These guesses are reasonable, but the probability is too low, the most likely is that he did it himself, because the detected spell is just a hovering spell. The final processing result is Mafalda A warning letter was sent to Harry, and there will be no substantive punishment..."

"Oh, wait a minute..." Mr. Arthur rested for a while, and suddenly realized something, "Merlin! Is it Lu Ren? I was so busy that I didn't notice you..." He stretched out his hand and Lu Ren shook his hands: "Nice to meet you, Ron told us a lot about your story, and you are quite famous in the ministry—we were very happy with the report of the interview with Fudge."

"I just did a little trivial thing..." Lu Ren said modestly, "It's getting late, you should go to rest early, it looks like you have to work overtime tomorrow? Don't worry about Harry, it might just be a misunderstanding. "

Listening to Lu Ren talking about the next day's work, Arthur sighed. He also knew that tomorrow would definitely be another day of leaving early and returning late. Thinking of this, he lost the interest to continue the conversation. He left in a hurry and took the time to wash up and sleep went.

At night, Lu Ren felt someone knocking lightly on his bedroom door, and he woke up suddenly from his sleep.After a little thought, he guessed the visitors outside the door, and when he opened the door, it turned out to be Brother Fred and Ron.

"This is not a suitable time for chatting." Lu Ren spread his hands, indicating that you came at an inappropriate time.

"Harry may have had an accident," Ron explained to Lu Ren, "Harry lived with his godfather at the beginning of the summer vacation, and we kept in touch at that time, but when he returned to the Dursleys' , he never wrote to us again. Today Dad came back to say that he used magic in front of Muggles and was warned. I was so worried that I couldn't sleep..."

"So we decided to take an adventure." Fred raised his eyebrows, "Want to join? Save Wizard Potter!"

"Dad has a flying car, and we can drive him out." George revealed a little detail of the plan.

"And we think you may be the person who can drive the best." Ron said that among the people present, there may really be no one who knows how to drive better than you.

……

When Lu Ren sat in the driver's seat, he panicked: he had never driven a car before...

"This is the instrument panel. Look at the unit, this is the speed per hour, and the one next to it may be the fuel level - do cars in the magic world burn gasoline? This is the handbrake..." Lu Ren began to identify various parts of the car.

Fred & George & Ron:  …

Now we are in a panic.

But they have no choice: because they know less than Lu Ren!

So the four of them got together to study.

"I swear by my 11 years of Muggle life! The car must be turned on to start! Your car is a manual transmission, so hurry up and find out if there is a place to insert the key! If you are unlucky, we will have to steal the key !” Soon a few people disagreed.

"Oh, really?" Fred sneered, "We are wizards!" Then he pulled out his wand, waved it casually, and the car started...

The sound of the engine was extremely harsh at night, and every twitch was like a cannonball exploding.

Lu Ren:!

I shouldn't be teaching science in the wizarding world.

That being the case...

He followed the analogy, pushed the rocker next to the driver's seat back, then lightly stepped on the accelerator, and the car backed out of the garage.

Lu Ren didn't really understand the steps and process of Muggle starting a car, but he instinctively felt that his operation just now was enough for him to pass the driver's license test three times...

"There should be an invisibility button, right?" Lu Ren thought for a while, "If there is no invisibility button, we will probably be expelled from Hogwarts when we come back. Think about it, a car flying in the air!"

"You're talking more and more like Hermione!" Ron, who was sitting behind Lu Ren, complained, but he and Lu Ren still searched for the function of making the car invisible.And a silver button on the dashboard attracted Lu Ren's attention: this button is really a bit abrupt - Lu Ren remembers that there are usually no buttons on the dashboard, right?

Sure enough, the car becomes invisible after one click.

Then, Lu Ren kicked the accelerator, and at the same time yanked the steering wheel, and the car took off. The speed was so fast that Ron and George in the back row directly hit the back of their heads on the seats.

"I forgot—the seat belt must be delivered before departure!" Lu Ren's voice echoed in the carriage.
