Chapter 207 The Uninvited Guest
Chapter 207 The Uninvited Guest
Time flies by and this short vacation is fleeting.
With the kitten standing on Xiven's shoulder, he walked into the gate of King's Cross Station again.
The kitten stayed at home for a holiday and was fed well by Sandrine. She didn't exercise much. She seemed to have gained two or three pounds and stood very heavy on her shoulders.
Passengers in the station looked at this pairing with curiosity.
There are quite a few passengers with pets in train stations, but most of them put them in cages or pet bags to prevent their pets from getting lost or being stepped on in the crowd. It is true that there are not many cats like Kitten who stand on Xiwen's shoulders honestly and are neither afraid of animals nor running around.
"You attracted other people's attention, kitten." Xiwen said helplessly, and at the same time, he pulled the kitten off his shoulders and held him in his arms. This reduced the attention of others a little.
Xiwen walked around twice in a place with few people, looked around again, and found that he was finally out of sight of most people.
So he breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards the partition wall between Platform 9 and Platform 10, preparing to enter Platform and Three-Quarters.
Just as Xiwen was walking towards the partition wall, he suddenly noticed that many passengers were looking in one direction from time to time, and their attention was focused on a strange girl.
The girl had silver hair and a pair of weird silver eyes. This was already weird enough, but she also wore a "fancy dress"——
A thin silk white dress matched her cold and aloof expression very well, but the problem was that she also wore a leopard print waistcoat outside the dress, and also added a pair of black leather pants under the dress...
This nondescript attire, coupled with her cold expression and strange face, made her a much-anticipated sight at the station.
Xiwen's mouth twitched when he saw this scene, and he wanted to sneak around the strange girl and sneak away. But Xiwen's figure was seen by her with extremely sharp eyes.
"Xiwen Rozier!" The girl shouted to Xiwen.
Suddenly, some of the passengers' attention immediately shifted to Xiwen. This kind of attention made it impossible for him to take the opportunity to get into platform nine and three-quarters...
Xiwen put his hand on his forehead, and finally walked to the girl silently, and said to her in a low voice: "Trelawney, this is not how Muggles wear clothes..."
"I have foreseen that my dressing like this will attract the attention of Muggles." Manto Trelawney said with indifferent eyes, but her cold expression paired with this outfit was quite funny. "Now that I've seen it, I can't change it no matter what, so it doesn't matter what clothes I change."
Xiwen shook his head helplessly, thinking that this girl from Ravenclaw College was probably the one most affected by the prophecy.
However, he thought about it from his perspective. What if he could see the future development of things around him since he was a child, but could never change it and could only watch this change as a bystander? Probably as boring and insensitive as Trelawney?
Xiwen couldn't help but have a trace of pity in his eyes, and asked softly: "If you don't hurry up and enter platform nine and three-quarters, what are you doing standing here?"
"I'm waiting for you," Trelawney said calmly. "I already knew that you would pass by this location, so I chose to stand here and wait for you."
However, this sentence confused Xiven. He quickly interrupted Trelawney and asked: "Wait, are you waiting for me? We don't seem to be that familiar, right..."
"Besides, didn't you say you can't see me? How come you can still see where I'm passing by?" Xiwen frowned slightly.
"I know we don't know each other that well, but I think you need to do another tarot card divination, so I'm here to wait for you." Trelawney still had the same cold look that has remained unchanged for thousands of years, and said indifferently explained.
"In addition, although I can't see your trajectory, I can still know that I will meet the person I want to meet in this place, so I choose to wait for you here."
Hearing her explanation, Sivan's brows furrowed even more tightly. He didn't understand what Trelawny was talking about.
He once had a tarot reading, which was also done for him by Trelawney. But the result was too general, and Xiwen felt it was of little use.
So why do you have to do another Tarot reading today? It even got to the point where she had to wait for Sivan at the station regardless of Muggle attention.
"Forget it, let's talk about it before we get on the bus. Now we need to find a way to get rid of the attention of those Muggle passengers so that we can enter through that partition wall." Xiwen shook his head and said to her.
He turned around and looked at the passengers around him, and found that many of them had even come to join in the fun because they were bored waiting for the bus. Sivan and Trelawney were receiving more attention now than before.
This situation made Xiwen feel a little worried.
Trelawney's expression did not change at all, she just said calmly: "Don't worry, staff from the Ministry of Magic stationed at King's Cross Station will come to help us soon."
Sure enough, not long after she finished speaking, a middle-aged wizard wearing formal clothes walked towards them.
This Ministry of Magic staff member was experienced and could see the current situation at a glance - there were two Hogwarts students who were unable to enter the hidden platform due to the onlookers of Muggles.
So he secretly took out his wand from his sleeve and whispered: "Repello Muggletum."
After the staff member recited the Muggle expulsion spell, the surrounding onlookers seemed to have remembered something important at the same time and left Sivan and Trelawney one after another.
The area suddenly became empty, a kind of emptiness that was particularly rare in the crowded King's Cross Station.
"That's not how Muggles wear clothes." After solving the problem, the staff member walked over to Sivan and Trelawney, and then educated Trelawney. "If you really don't know how to wear their clothes, I suggest you prepare a Muggle magazine and dress according to the models in it."
"In addition, the color of your hair and eyes are too conspicuous. I suggest that you wear sunglasses and a hat to cover them in the future so that they are not too noticeable."
Trelawney seemed to have foreseen that he would say such words. She just nodded calmly and then walked towards the partition wall between Platform 9 and Platform 10.
Xiwen smiled helplessly, thanked the staff, and followed him into the partition wall.
At this time, the red train had stopped at platform nine and three-quarters, and steam emitted from the chimney on the front of the train from time to time.
Xiwen, who was no longer surprised, walked directly into the carriage, placed the kitten on a cushion in an empty compartment, and sat down next to its soft fur. At the same time, his left hand was still gently scratching the kitten's chin, causing her to make a "purring" sound that represented satisfaction.
Trelawney sat down on the seat opposite Sivan and took out a stack of tarot cards from her pocket.
"I think you need another tarot reading," she said in an erratic voice.
……
At the same time, an uninvited guest came across the space next to Ghost Xiwen.
