Hogwarts: The Book of Magic

Chapter 233 Christmas Holiday
On the second day after Lien returned to the cabin in the woods, Pudding came back from the plantation, hugging Lien's thigh and crying for a while, all words meant not to let Lien abandon it.

After asking for a long time, I finally figured out that it wasn't serving Lean at home when Lean came back, which made Pudding feel that he had violated the beliefs of house elves.

After figuring out the reason, Lean couldn't help but twitched. In the end, he had to comfort Pudding that he would not abandon it, and then let Pudding give up.

After finally taking a vacation, Lean didn't plan to read any more.Looking around at his hut, Lean suddenly felt a little small.And it's not a problem to always live in the stronghold of Death Eaters, so for the first time, Lean had the idea of ​​moving.

The Ministry of Magic also has ready-made houses for sale, but all of these houses are ridiculously expensive.And most importantly, once you buy these houses, the Ministry of Magic will leave your address.

Judging by the performance of the Ministry of Magic, it would be better to build a house by myself, at worst, the fireplace should not be turned on.

Moreover, Lian would not open a fireplace in his home at all, but directly teleported people in through the fixed-point teleportation circle.

"Pudin, what do you think if I change houses?" Lean said.

Pudding suddenly appeared on Li En's right side, widened his already big eyes, looked at Li En expectantly, and said in an excited tone: "Of course, it's better to say, as the master, you can still To live in a house like this is condescension."

"Then tell me, where is the best place to build a house." Lean pinched his chin with his left hand, and knocked unconsciously on the armrest of the chair with his right hand.

"This is something you should decide, and I'm not arbitrarily presumptuous." Pudding bowed and said with a smile.

"Okay, you go down first." Lien waved his hand.

After Pudding got the order, he disappeared in front of Lean.

After thinking about it, Lean decided to ask Anderson in the box world.After all, Anderson's thousands of years of experience are there, so he must think more comprehensively than himself.

In the box world, Anderson is lying on the ground basking in the sun.After listening to Lean talk about Christmas, he also started to give himself a Christmas holiday.

"What's the matter with coming in today?" Anderson's soul flame shook.

With Lien's temperament, he would never come to him for nothing.

"I want to change the house, do you have any good ideas?" Lean found a place next to Anderson and sat down.

"What idea?" Anderson raised his head, looked at Lean and said doubtfully.

"A good location, a good protective circle, etc. I was born only more than ten years ago, and there are some things that an old world like you who has wandered for thousands of years understands."

"Maybe you can capture a demiplane and anchor it on the world barrier. And you can integrate this world with the demiplane, which saves you the need to build a demiplane."

Lean thought about the possibility, and felt that it was not impossible, but it required a good plan.

"This matter has to be calculated carefully. If you are not careful, you will fail and damage your soul. You also know how painful it is to hurt your soul."

"Don't worry, the world will help you. This kind of half-plane is what the rising world needs most, and they will accelerate the growth of the world. And after anchoring, as the world grows, the half-plane will gradually grow .”

"In short, just one sentence: the main world of the rising stage is a good thing, as long as any thing is contaminated with the main world of the rising stage, it can soar into the sky."

Anderson stared at Lean, and couldn't help feeling envious of Lean's good life again, even a little bit of jealousy.

"Well, it's only two days away. It's the Christmas holiday, and I don't want to ruin my good holiday because of this."

"To be honest, I really like this vacation system. It's not like in my previous life. It's all kinds of research all year round, which makes my head dizzy."

Anderson lay on the grass and changed his position again.

"Okay, let's go after asking questions, you are blocking my sunlight." Anderson raised his paw and said weakly.

"You're not Diogenes, that's all right, take your time basking in the sun."

Lean stood up, patted the dirt off his butt, and exited the box world.

Now that we have decided to do it, we should do it beautifully.

Lean, who had nothing to do, began to figure out what was needed to capture a demiplane.

The first is enough magic power, which can be supplied by using the source of magic power.The second is a magic circle that expands spiritual power, allowing Lean to search for a demiplane in the void.Then there is the magnetic pole array, the positive pole is arranged in the main plane, and the negative pole is arranged in the half-plane, and the frequency of attraction is set, so that when the half-plane is attracted, it can avoid being cut off by others.

It's just that in the middle of the plan, Lean threw away the pen.

"It's vacation, what do you want to do with this crap." Saying that, he walked out of his study.

It's just that there is nothing left and right, so Lean decided to go outside for a stroll.

On the street outside, people were wearing winter clothes and scarves, and families came out to do shopping.The waiters in the store also had the most sincere smiles. Thanks to these shoppers, they can get double wages during the holidays.

With his hands in his pockets, Lean walked blankly on the street, looking around to see if he could find anything interesting.

After a while, Lean found a small stand selling ice cream.

Although it is strange why someone sells ice cream in winter, there are actually quite a few people around.

This ice cream stand was at the entrance of a restaurant. Through the glass, Lien saw that many guests in the restaurant had taken off their heavy coats.

It is estimated that the customer who just came out of the restaurant wanted to eat an ice cream, which aroused the curiosity of the young people around him.

Thinking of this, Lean also joined the queue.

As a wizard, he can naturally keep himself warm through magic, so it is not a big deal to taste an ice cream, even eating ice cream in winter has a refreshing feeling.

The ice cream seller was a young boy. Through chatting with people around him, Lean learned that the stall owner was named Falk Bliss, and his father had sold ice cream here all his life.Now that old Bliss has retired, the business is naturally taken over by his son.

For these customers, Bliss's ice cream is a must-have item every time they go shopping, and it is something that represents their childhood.

The line keeps moving forward, but there is still a flow of people joining the line, so it seems that the length of the line has not changed much.

After a while, it was Ryan's turn.

"What flavor does the guest want? Some flavors are all listed on this piece of paper." Falk smiled and pointed to the white piece of paper hanging beside the window.

There are two columns on the white paper, filled with all the flavors.However, perhaps because Lien came late, there are already many flavors with a line drawn on the white paper, which means that this flavor has been sold out.

"In a box, put chocolate and vanilla on both sides, and put strawberry in the middle, thank you."

The ice cream in this store can be served in cones or in rectangular boxes, but Lean chose to pack it in boxes.

Falk's actions were quick, and within ten seconds he completed Lean's order.

"Twentypence all together."

Lean gave Falk a strange look, then took out the money and handed it to Falk.

"Merry Christmas, what would the next guest want?" Falk's voice sounded.

Lean took the ice cream on the window sill, and inside the rectangular box, white, pink and black were arranged one by one.

For Lean, this is also his memory of the same year - the three-color cup.

Pick up the plastic spoon and slowly pull it down from the area of ​​chocolate flavored ice cream until it reaches the area of ​​vanilla flavored ice cream. There are three flavors of ice cream inside the spoon.

Putting the spoon into the mouth, a cold feeling hits instantly.The bitterness of chocolate, the sweetness of strawberry and the sweetness of vanilla burst out on the tip of the tongue instantly.

"I didn't expect to be able to eat it here, oh."

Lean dug another spoon and put it into his mouth, then walked forward slowly.One by one, people passed over Lean, with bags and bags on them.Occasionally bumped into Lean, said a quick "sorry", and continued to walk forward with his family.

Lian just continued to walk on the street, occasionally going into the shop to take a stroll.

Three hours later, Lean was also covered with bags.Because he suddenly remembered that his Christmas present for everyone was not ready yet.

"Damn, why is there such a custom of giving gifts, many brain cells have to die."

In order to be able to give everyone the right gift, Lean really wasted a lot of time in the store.In the end, it was the clerk who saw him wandering around and came up to him and asked him if he needed help.

There are a lot of gifts to be given this time, and there are still nine workers in the manor, so the box world also needs to be arranged.

So Lean bought a lot of trinkets, and as for the Christmas tree, he planned to cut one from the box world.Of course, the most important star of Bethlehem, Lean, also bought the largest one.

Don't worry about not being able to pretend, magic can do everything.

After finding a small corner and putting all the things on his body into his pockets, Lien once again packed lightly and started to swim in the streets and alleys.

As the sky gradually darkened, more and more people chose to go to the restaurant for a family dinner.Seeing the happy and happy atmosphere in the restaurant, Li En wisely didn't go in, but found a Chinese restaurant.

"One serving of fish-flavored shredded pork, one serving of tomato and egg soup, and one bowl of rice, thank you."

Ryan found a seat in the innermost place and sat down, and then said to the waiter who was standing aside to order.

English is used, although he can speak Chinese, but there is no need to show off.

After ordering, the waiter brought up a pot of tea.After walking for so long, Lien was also a little thirsty, so he picked up the teapot and made himself a cup of hot tea.

The teapot looked old, but the teapot itself was clean and not heavily grime.

He picked up the teacup, blew on it, and took a sip.

Even Li En, who doesn't know much about tea, can taste that this tea is not a good tea.Because there is actually a little tea dregs in the tea, which can only happen to the kind of broken tea that costs a few dollars a catty.

In about 10 minutes, all the dishes ordered by Lien were served.After walking on the street for nearly five hours, Li En was already hungry, so he didn't care about eating.

In other words, it is a strange behavior to care about eating in such a small restaurant.

After eating quickly, Lean burped contentedly.Sitting in his seat, he drank another cup of tea slowly, and then went to the front desk to pay the bill.

This meal cost Rin ten pounds in total, which is not expensive.

Back in the forest hut, I smelled the pudding on Lien's body with the smell of food hugging Lien's thigh again, and burst into tears again.

"Wow wow, master don't send pudding away."

"Damn it, didn't I say yesterday that I wouldn't send you away, let go!"

"Wow, wow, no, pudding can cook, and it will be even more delicious than outside."

Lian covered his face with his hands, and suddenly felt that the house elves were not very good.

"Enough! If you cry again, I will send you away!"

Sure enough, this sentence is very lethal.As soon as Lien spoke, Pudding stopped crying, just sobbed slightly, and wiped his tears from time to time.

"Listen, I won't send you away. Send you away and someone will take care of that plantation for me."

"Really...won't you send the pudding away?"

"Really." Lien felt that he might as well just get into the world of the box and never come out in this life.

With Lien's assurance, Pudding happily disappeared in front of Lien again.

After finishing the pudding, Lean came to the box world and sent the various gadgets purchased today to the manor.

"Anlina, go and pick a suitable spruce for the Christmas tree. If you can't find it, use magic to force one out. I remember that the spell book I gave you basically has this spell."

"no problem."

Alina accepted the task decisively, then turned and walked out.

"Lubo, I'll leave the things here to you. Oh, by the way, these are some trinkets I went out to buy today, and you can use them to decorate the Christmas tree."

"Praise be to your kindness, my lord."

Lu Bo's words really came from the heart.

People like myself said they were loyal to Lien, but in fact they were not much different from those who sold themselves into slavery.And Lien still remembered to buy some decorations for the Christmas tree for people like himself, which proved that Lien still cared about people like himself.

Lean waved his hand, and then exited the box world.

After shopping for a long time, Lian began to sort out the things he bought today.

First of all, I bought clothes for myself. I bought more clothes because I saw a lot of clothes I liked.The second is the gifts for others at Christmas. Rian will use post-it notes to write his name on these things, and then stick them on them, so as not to send them by mistake.
