Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple
Chapter 486 Conversation at Flourishes and Blotts Bookstore
Along the way, they could feel the strange atmosphere in Diagon Alley. It seemed that no one wanted to stay outside for more than a quarter of an hour. Many people felt the same as Mrs. Weasley, and they had the same anxiety on their faces.
The store also seemed to be extremely deserted, which was something that had never happened before. Mr. Wesley always looked back and looked around every three or four steps, as if he was sure that no one around would have any impact on their safety, and then he boldly walked forward with the children.
There was silence all the way, and when they arrived at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore, there were no other customers in the store.
The bookstore owner was also different from his previous enthusiasm. After glancing at the visitors, he continued to read in front of his counter, not wanting to interact too much with other people.
"We will divide the work later. There are quite a few things to buy."
Mrs. Weasley gathered a few people around her and said quickly:
"Ginny and I will go buy some textbooks for Harry and his sixth grade students as well as your own books." She pointed at Ginny and then at herself, "You should know what courses they are taking this semester."
Ginny spread her hands helplessly. This little daughter who came to Wes's house had her own ideas. Although her beauty was enough to dazzle all the boys in Hogwarts, she had to listen to her in front of her mother.
"Then Arthur, thank you for your hard work. You will take Astoria and Oliver to purchase the remaining books, well, including some books that S needs. Ah, Astoria, dear, yours Please ask Ginny to bring you a copy."
"Thank you, Mrs. Weiss."
Astoria looked very polite, and the temperament displayed by the white-haired girl was no less than that of the red-haired girl next to her.
The process of selecting books was a bit boring. When Louis saw his long list of S-standard books, he knew that Dumbledore was not going to let him go this semester.
Although some of the content seemed to him now to be completely childish, he seemed to have become the first student in the history of Hogwarts who had not yet passed the ordinary wizard qualification exam but had been exposed to the content of the ultimate wizard qualification exam.
"The ultimate potion science, supreme defense.
. Dumbledore really knows how to choose courses.
. "
Mr. Weislai shook his head. Books with s content may not be available in ordinary bookstores. Of course, as a father of seven children, he is always familiar with selecting teaching materials, even if he is not responsible for the children's daily life.
So, in the final analysis, it was three people buying books, but in the end, Astoria and Louis were left to choose on their own.
"The Secret Code of Training of Magical Creatures? Do you like this kind of book?"
Lewis looked at the white-haired girl in front of him and picked up a book and asked. This was the first time he had spoken to Astoria in such a long time.
"Well, I've been very interested in magical animals recently, especially Bowtruckles." Astoria flipped through two pages casually, "Senior, are you also interested in magical animals?"
"I thought you girls would all like those magic potion techniques to make you beautiful, as well as those flowers and plants.
"
"Someone once introduced me to these creatures." Astoria said to herself, as if she was caught in some kind of memory, "It's just that he will never appear again."
"Senior, you will also meet this kind of person. He obviously promised you but can't do anything. If I had gone with him, maybe I could have said goodbye to him properly.
"
Louis was speechless, and Astoria's mood seemed to be slowly sinking, but due to his current status, he didn't know how to comfort her.
"We will meet one day," Louis said. "He may be guarding you silently somewhere. I hope he will always appear."
"Maybe, for now, hope is the most precious thing."
Astoria smiled, and the look she looked at Louis was somewhat meaningful, and not long after their conversation ended, Mr. Weissley appeared between them holding a pile of books.
.
The five people finally got together after buying the books. They divided the conch books among themselves. In the end, the two men bore most of the weight.
They met Harry and the others at the entrance of Madam Malkin's robe shop, but judging from their expressions, it seemed that they had just encountered something unhappy.
"Is everyone okay?" Mrs. Weasley said. "Have you bought all the robes? Well, we'll stop by the drug store and Hooters on the way to Fred and George's shop. Come on, follow Tighter.
"
Louis followed Harry and the others, and the two of them were still arguing about what just happened.
It turned out that in Madam Malkin's robe shop, they met Draco Malfoy and Narcissa who came to buy robes. Hermione was ridiculed by them because of her Muggle ancestry, and they almost had a conflict.
Draco and Narcissa, mother and son, have been instilled with pure-blood ideas since childhood. It is normal for them to look down on Hermione. Moreover, the Malfoy family has been labeled as Death Eaters at this moment. Lucius Malfoy is because of magic. Azkaban was suffering the punishment he deserved for the incident at the Ministry, and there was no need to openly fight.
However, one of the topics they discussed caught Louis' attention, that Malfoy might have become a Death Eater like his father.
This is undoubtedly an honor for a wizarding family that adheres to the theory of pure blood, just like Sirius's parents cheered when Regulus became a Death Eater at the age of sixteen. But for Malfoy, it was more like a punishment for their family.
Lucius's consistent performance in disappointing Voldemort had made the guy lose patience, and he asked Draco to join the Death Eaters to complete an almost impossible task for Malfoy.
These tasks are not difficult for elite Death Eaters, but Draco is just a sixteen-year-old boy. If he is still allowed to assassinate Dumbledore, it is better to let him die.
Although Lewis didn't know whether his mission had changed from the original plot, one thing he was sure of was that according to Slughorn, Dumbledore would be invincible if he were in Hogwarts. , no one can hurt him, this conclusion is not only due to his own strength, but also the mysterious red rune in his hand.
While passing by the pharmacy and the owl shop, they each purchased the materials they needed. Since they knew in advance that Slughorn would most likely take over Snape's teaching of Potions class, under Louis' suggestion, Harry and Rowe En bought the ingredients and cauldrons for the Potions class respectively. Of course, they also bought nuts for Hedwig, Fulla and Piggy. The owl had been under their collective care since the incident at the Ministry of Magic.
Then they continued walking forward. Fred and George's store was deep in Diagon Alley. According to the previous description of Louis by the two brothers, it should be a very stylish store.
Mrs. Weasley looked at her watch every minute. She kept counting the house numbers:
“One hundred and five, one hundred and six, one hundred and seven, one hundred and eight.
. "
"Wow!"
Ron's exclamation interrupted Louis' thoughts. He looked ahead. It was a completely opposite scene to Diagon Alley today. He would never have thought that in such a depressed market environment, there could still be something like this. Such stores exist.
