Hogwarts: This wizard wants to improve too much

Mid-August!

Ethan brought Penelope and Cassandra to Diagon Alley. Today they were here to buy books for this semester.

Beauxbatons also started school on September 1. Fleur and Gabrielle went back the day before yesterday at the request of their father, using a portkey.

"Ethan, this way!"

Hermione and Qiu Zhang stood on the side of the road and waved to Ethan from a distance.

Both of them held the cones that Flo's Ice Cream Shop had just launched this year.

After giving the cones to Ethan and the others one by one, Hermione took out the two newspapers under her armpits and showed them to Ethan.

"Is there still communication between the wizarding world and the Muggles?"

"Look, he's even on the Muggle newspaper."

The first page of both newspapers published a large photo of a man with a haggard face and long, messy hair.

The Daily Prophet reported that the Ministry of Magic confirmed today that Sirius Black is still at large, and he is probably the most evil prisoner ever held in Azkaban.

And the Muggle newspapers recorded that Sirius Black shot and killed thirteen people twelve years ago.

"There is communication. We, the Muggle-born wizards, go to Hogwarts to study, which is the result of communication from above."

"The Malfoy family used to serve the British royal family, and now they still have Muggle titles. It's just that because of the International Statute of Secrecy, the connection is now broken, but the high-level officials of the Ministry of Magic still have frequent exchanges with the high-level Muggles."

This is not something that cannot be said, Ethan told Hermione directly.

"I thought wizards and Muggles were two completely unrelated worlds."

Hermione nodded thoughtfully.

Black's matter was quickly forgotten by the group. His escape from prison was no threat to them. No one here knew him. They only knew that he was a criminal and had nothing to do with them.

Hermione was surprised only because Black was on the Muggle newspaper.

After putting away the two newspapers, the group began to stroll around Diagon Alley.

When they passed by the Quidditch boutique, they saw that the store was full of excited wizards, both men and women, young and old.

"Ethan, look, there are new flying brooms. Let's go in and take a look."

Qiu Zhang said excitedly, pulling Ethan.

"Okay!"

Anyway, there was a lot of time today, and the main thing was to buy a few books. The rest of the time was to accompany them to stroll around Diagon Alley.

Ethan led the girls into the store along with the flow of people. They built a platform inside the store, and on the platform was a very gorgeous and impressive flying broom.

Although Ethan had no feelings for it, the people around him looked at the flying broom with uncontrollable love in their eyes.

"The newly released...sample..."

This is a square-jawed wizard nearby, who is introducing the flying broom to his companions.

"This is the world's first flying broom.The fastest broom, right? Daddy!"

A young boy shook his father's arm, his eyes fixed on the flying broom.

The people around were discussing the broom, but Qiu Zhang was the only one who liked Quidditch on Ethan's side, and the others had no interest in Quidditch.

With no interest in Quidditch, there was basically no requirement for the flying broom, after all, the Nimbus 2000 was not unusable.

It's just that there are more and more people, and there are still people coming in from outside.

"Penelope, take them out first!"

"I'll take Qiu Zhang to take a look inside."

"Okay! ”

Penelope didn’t want to stay in there. There were so many people and it smelled strange. If it wasn’t for Qiu Zhang, she wouldn’t have come in.

When they brought Qiu Zhang to the side of the ring, they finally saw the sign on the side.

[Rocket Crossbow

This latest high-speed flying broom adopts a streamlined design, a high-quality ash wood handle, diamond polishing, and a hand-engraved registration number.

Each carefully selected birch branch at the tail of the broom is ground into a streamlined shape, giving the broom unparalleled balance and exquisite accuracy.

The rocket crossbow can be launched from a static position in ten seconds. It can accelerate to 150 miles per hour and has a magical braking effect.

Price negotiable! 】

Price negotiable, isn't it just to raise the price?

This acceleration is really good, 150 miles, that is 241 kilometers, compared to Ethan's McLaren F1, it is definitely nothing, but for other flying brooms, it is a dimensional strike

Seeing so many people gathered, the shop owner also stood up and promoted the rocket crossbow again:

"The Irish International Club just placed an order to buy seven of these fine products!"

"They are the hot items in this World Cup! ”

Ethan looked at Qiu Zhang, whose eyes were twinkling with stars, and knew what to give her for Christmas this year.

As for the price, Ethan is not short of money now.

He got more than one million from Thress, and in a quarterly dividend two months ago, the head of the Volley family gave more than 70,000 gold galleons.

After leaving the Quidditch boutique with Qiu Zhang who was still reluctant, Ethan and his party came to Flourish and Blotts Bookstore, which was only a few dozen meters away.

This trip mainly bought textbooks for elective courses. Ethan, Carter Sandra, Hermione and the other two took the three electives Care of Magical Creatures, Ancient Runes, and Divination.

Walking into the bookstore, the place where the gold-stamped magic books were usually placed was now replaced by a large iron cage, which contained about a hundred "Monster Books of Monsters".

All these books were entangled together, tearing each other fiercely, like a fierce wrestling match, and broken pieces of paper were flying everywhere.

Ethan was silent. He didn't know which alchemist's work this was, and what was the point of making it like this?

"Hogwarts?"

"Buy new textbooks?"

The manager on the side suddenly came over and asked when he saw Ethan and others standing there.

"Yes!"

Hermione nodded seriously.

"How many books do you need?"

The manager's voice trembled a little.

"Three books!"

The textbook for the third grade is "The Monster Book of Monsters", but the textbooks for the fourth and seventh grades are not this.

Take a deep breath, the bookstore manager put on the thick gloves on the side, picked up a cane covered with knots, and walked towards the cage door of "The Monster Book of Monsters".

Ethan and others watched him use the cane to separate the books that were bitten together, and then grabbed one and dragged it out, but unfortunately it was still bitten. Two "The Monster Book of Monsters" were bitten on his arm and were taken out.

"I've been bitten for the seventh time today!"

The manager almost cried as he said this. Is there something wrong with the teacher of the magical creature protection class this year!

He actually chose this book.

"We also need "Seeing the Future through the Mist" and "The Beginning of Runes", also three copies."

"Okay, the textbooks for the divination class and the ancient runes class, right!"

The manager walked deep into the bookstore to get the textbooks that Ethan and others needed.

Swish!

The movement on the side attracted the attention of Ethan and others. He turned around and found that a book "The Monster Book of Monsters" was torn by other books, and the paper was flying all over the sky.

No wonder there are only more than 70 people in a grade, but they bought so many books. It turns out that most of them are consumables.

Counting the ones that were bought and torn, Ethan estimated that there were about 200 books when he bought them.

It's a waste of money to make money like this, it's definitely a loss!

After Penelope and Qiu Zhang finished choosing their textbooks, they left, leaving only the manager who was looking at the wreckage of the books in silence.........

Then we went from Mrs. Primpineel's Beauty and Potion Shop to Mrs. Malkin's Robe Shop, and also visited Ella Owl Shop and Ink Change Stationery Shop.

Finally, we stopped at the entrance of the Magic Zoo.

"Ethan, let's go in and take a look!"

"When I enrolled, I thought about bringing a cat to Hogwarts, but at that time, there were not enough gold galleons, and I was worried that I couldn't take good care of it in the new environment."

"But now, I think I can take good care of a cat!"

Hermione looked at Ethan with some excitement. Although cats were not on the list of pets in Hogwarts, it shouldn't be a big problem. If it doesn't work, I can just keep it secretly.

"Okay, let's go in and take a look!"

Ethan was silent for a while, but nodded in agreement.

I remember Hermione had a very ugly cat, could it be that she bought it here!

"Welcome, what kind of pet do you need?"

As soon as the few people entered the door, a middle-aged woman wearing thick black-framed glasses came to greet them.(To read exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

Hermione frowned as she looked at this very crowded pet shop, which was full of various animal calls and noisy.

She doubted whether she could buy a suitable cat here, but since everyone was here, it would be impolite to leave like this.

"I want to buy a cat. Do you have any recommendations?"

"Please follow me. All cats are here."

The lady boss led the way in front, and Hermione followed behind.

And Ethan went to pet the magical animals. Since he came in, their eyes have been focused on him. Of course, these are all regular ones, and there is no XXXX level one.

"Ethan, come and see how this cat is?"

After a while, Hermione held up a cat and shouted to Ethan, with a strong excitement on her face.

"You like it?"

Ethan looked at Hermione strangely. She really met him!

I don't like this cat. Its thick ginger hair, bow legs, flat face, and thick tail like a bottle brush do not conform to the aesthetics of normal people.

"How is it? It's good!"

Hermione said excitedly. She really liked it more and more.

"As long as you like it."

Ethan couldn't say anything against his will. []

Cassandra and others looked at Hermione in surprise. They didn't expect her aesthetics to collapse like this.

"This is Crookshanks. It has some cat-kneazle blood. It is a very smart child. You only need three gold galleons to take it away. Of course, you have to take good care of it."

Unlike Ethan and others, the proprietress was smiling at the moment.

She had wanted to sell this cat for a long time, but no one liked it. This cat has lived here for three years, and the annual feed cost is not cheap.

I really like these little guys, otherwise someone else would have abandoned them long ago.

"Why is it so cheap?"

Hermione was a little confused when she heard this. Since it has cat-like blood, how could it be only three gold galleons? Isn't this equivalent to giving it away for free?

"Because of its appearance, no one is willing to take it home. It has been in my store for three years. If you are willing to take it away, I can give you five extra bags of cat food."

The boss lady started giving gifts. If she missed this little witch, she really didn't know when the next wizard would be interested in Crookshanks.

"I feel great!"

Hermione happily paid the money. Seeing that Hermione was so straightforward, the boss lady also gave her an extra cage. .
