Hogwarts, where the stars shine

Chapter 1, In the Name of the Stars



It was a hot and humid morning in Birmingham in the summer of 1988.

The sky is as blue as a wash, the scorching sun is scorching the earth, and the once lush grass has become withered and droopy.

The streets were empty. Occasionally, I saw two or three pedestrians, all of whom were in a hurry.No one wants to go out in such bad weather. Everyone prefers to hide in a cool house and enjoy the coolness brought by air conditioners and fans.

There was only one person still outside. He was a teenage boy. His hair and eyes were black, his face was as fair as jade, his figure was thin, and he looked a little frail.

He was wearing a pair of worn-out jeans that had been washed white, a faded T-shirt that was baggy, and the soles of his shoes were worn so thin that they were almost breathable.

The tattered and slovenly clothes always make people think of a dirty beggar. The 11-year-old Mesa is not a beggar. He is a bottle-fed orphan, or a street child.

Mesa escaped from the orphanage a year ago. The people there didn't like him, and he didn't like the gloomy, depressing orphanage.

Not to be envied is mediocrity.

Mesa's outstanding appearance and top grades made him stand out from the crowd in the orphanage, and he was like the brightest star in the night sky.

Everything about him makes other children crazy with jealousy, and jealousy makes people ugly and separates hostages... When jealousy arises, there will naturally be slander behind it.

Three people become tigers, many people speak for themselves, and over time, what is false becomes true.

As a result, Mesa became the most disobedient child in the orphanage. He was arrogant, arrogant, and enjoyed bullying others... He was truly terrifying.

At first, Mesa would defend and argue for a while, but the continuous scoldings from the director of the orphanage made him completely disappointed with the place, so he became the street child he is now and appeared on South Acre Street.

This street is full of single-family buildings. The people who live here are either rich or noble, and at worst they are middle class.

House No. 7 in front of me lives with a young couple, newlyweds. Of course they are going on their honeymoon, which is why Mesa hides here under the sun.

Mesa was not a thief. He had no intention of breaking into the house. He just wanted to live in the house secretly while the couple was away.

After a while, the door of No. 7 was opened, and the man in casual clothes walked out first and started the car parked on the street.Then, the beautiful hostess also came out, chatting and laughing, and got into her husband's car.

Immediately, the car drove away and disappeared at the end of the street.

Mesa did not get up impatiently. He still hid behind a large bunch of flowers to prevent the couple from returning.

I don't know how long it took, until Mesa's stomach made a loud growling sound, and he quickly left the flowers, pulling his small suitcase up to the doorstep.

Mesa does not have the key to the door of Room 7, nor does he have the ability to enter and exit a community with a pack of instant noodles, but he has a pair of good-looking hands, a pair of hands that can make dreams come true.

He grasped the door handle with ease, and after just a few seconds, he heard a soft "click" and the door opened.

The young Mesa has special abilities that ordinary people do not have. Not only can he easily open the security door, he can also do more incredible things, and he can even hang an adult from the rafters.

Of course, Mesa had no reason to do this. What he wanted was a shelter from the wind and rain, not a burglary.

After passing through the foyer, you will see a living room, which leads to the semi-open kitchen and dining room. There is also a small room near the stairs filled with sundries.

There are three bedrooms on the second floor of the house, as well as the hostess's dressing room and the male owner's study.

Mesa went straight to the bathroom, took off his sweat-soaked clothes, and took a quick shower.

In terms of appearance alone, as long as Mesa doesn't fall in love with Victoria's Secret supermodels or play with water guns on the beach, he can suppress an era with just this face.

After washing away the fatigue and heat, Mesa did not go to the bedroom upstairs to rest, even though the hostess was beautiful and in good shape.

Mesa shook her wet hair like a cute puppy and walked to the kitchen contentedly to find food.

Every time he stayed at someone else's house, he would borrow the owner's food and leave some money when he had enough money.

Mesa, who had never seen the world, was shocked when he opened the refrigerator door and saw the dazzling array of items inside like a supermarket.Sure enough, the life of the rich is so boring.

After choosing a carton of milk and toasting two slices of bread with a toaster, Mesa enjoyed a simple lunch.

After eating and drinking, Mesa leaned on the soft and comfortable sofa in the living room.If nothing else goes wrong, he can probably live here for a while without having to find another place to live or huddle under the bridge with the homeless.

Raising his hands, Mesa began today's practice.

Under his control, all the small ornaments in the living room floated and flew in the air as his hands moved. Mesa's dark eyes shone with excitement.

Mesa began to have this ability to manipulate objects when he was about four years old, which stemmed from a bullying incident.

The cause was that an elderly couple came to the orphanage and wanted to adopt a child. Mesa, who had a fairly good reputation at the time, was on the candidate list.

Children living in orphanages want to leave there all the time and have a relatively normal family, so the children who appear on the list are actively expressing themselves, and Mesa is no exception.

The body of a four-year-old child contains the soul of a high school student. Mesa easily wins the favor of the old couple, and the countdown to the day he leaves the orphanage begins.

But at this moment, the accident happened.

In order to destroy their competitors, several kids on the roster decided to team up to give Mesa a good look and take him out of the competition.

The thin Mesa was blocked in the corner, and what awaited him was a flurry of punches and kicks.At the critical moment, Mesa's special power exploded, and he beat the child who beat him to death.

But Mesa's name was still crossed off the candidate list.

Everyone agrees that the director of the orphanage does not believe Mesa. She chooses to side with more people, and the bullied becomes the perpetrator.

Since then, there have been more and more slanderous words against Mesa. In the end, isolating Mesa actually became what the children call justice.

As for Mesa, he ignored all this and concentrated on polishing his special abilities. This was the foundation of his career.

In his previous life, Mesa was just an ordinary student. Even if something mysterious like time travel happened to him, he didn't think that he would definitely be able to change his life. He would still be a salty fish after turning around.

However, when Mesa learned that he was born with wings, how could he be willing to spend his life crawling around like an insect?

Ambition grows and burns like a prairie fire!

Meissa, his name, is Alcyonium, the brightest star in the lambda ring of Orion.Mesa should live up to his name, becoming the brightest star in the night sky, shining with his own light!

There is an old saying in the far East: If a man is alive without five pots of food, he will die with five pots of food.

If it succeeds, it will be Mr. Mei. If it fails, it will be Mr. Mei, and it will be over.

Unconsciously, an hour passed, and Mesa no longer played with the ornaments suspended in the air.He waved his hand, and the floating ornaments returned to their original positions quietly, and even the fragile items were not damaged.

Mesa closed his eyes and stretched himself comfortably, wanting to sleep for a while.It’s not the fault of Mesa’s weak will, it’s the fault of the sofa under her being too comfortable, which makes people unable to stop feeling sleepy.

Suddenly, a loud honking of a car horn and a man's curse came from outside the door.

Mesa opened his eyes suddenly, jumped up from the sofa, pulled his suitcase, and wanted to leave as quickly as possible.Although the yelling and cursing could not be heard clearly, the voice should come from the male owner of this house, who had left for vacation long ago.

However, before Mesa walked out of the living room, the sound of the door opening was heard.

At the same time, it was accompanied by the male host cursing: "Unlucky! What unlucky! I couldn't make it on vacation and almost hit someone!"

Then, Mesa heard the sound of her mistress's high heels.The sound of the soles of the shoes on the floor became louder and louder, which meant that the mistress was getting closer to Mesa!

The uninvited visitor to Mesa was jammed.
