Chapter 280 Hogsmeade

Perhaps influenced by Harris, on the first weekend of the new school year, Kyle decided to go to Hogsmeade with others.

Although Kyle is no stranger there, he has always sneaked through the secret passage before.

 After the third grade, he was already able to go openly... In the last herb class before the weekend, he had already handed the permission form to Professor Sprout.

Administrator Filch stood in the foyer, checking a long list to prevent anyone from slipping out of the door who shouldn't be allowed out.

 But the Kells obviously didn't need to care about this and walked out swaggeringly.

 …

Different from St. Catchpole Village, Hogsmeade is a real wizarding village, and the villagers living here are all wizards without exception.

However, the land price here is not cheap... Kyle has inquired that even if you want to build a house in the most remote corner, it will cost 20,000 Galleons... and this is still the current price.

 Because of the existence of the Pig's Head Bar, there are always some wizards of unknown origin appearing in Hogsmeade. These unstable factors have seriously lowered the quality of the place.

 At the same time, it also led to a serious decline in housing prices.

  If it were a few decades ago, when there was no Pig Head Bar, let alone 20,000, even 50,000 Galleons would not necessarily be enough to live here.

 A proper high-end villa area in the magical world.

Although the Pig's Head Bar is a hidden danger... Kyle and others don't need to worry about it at all.

After all, Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick came to Hogsmeade with them. No one dared to cause trouble at this time...

It is no exaggeration to say that this time is also the most harmonious day in Hogsmeade... Those wizards with unknown origins must carefully consider whether this behavior will cause any harm to the little wizards before they even throw away garbage. What a bad influence.

 If they don't think about it...the accompanying professors will think about it for them.

 At least outside the Hog's Head.

As the most popular wizard village, this place is naturally very interesting... From the moment you enter the village, you can see shops with various signboards on both sides of the road.

 The first is Jokowi’s Joke Shop.

This is also Fred and George's favorite shop, and they spend almost all their pocket money here.

 Behind Joko’s Joke Shop is the Owl Post Office and Honeydukes Candy House…

“We can come here every day...but visiting days are always the most special,” Fred said with a smile.

"Yeah." George sighed: "It would be great if I could come every week."

After learning that today was a "visiting day", they decisively ate fast-acting candy to make themselves vomit, successfully escaping Quidditch practice.

 “Professors don’t have that much time.”

Cedric was counting the Galleons in his wallet. Hearing this, he raised his head and said, "This is not bad now. Don't forget that the first visit last year was in late October."

"Yeah, those days were really tough." Fred said with a smile: "Kyle, you've caught up with the good times."

 “We decided to go to Joko...what about you?”

 “Then let’s go together.” Kyle thought for a while and said.

Others don’t have any opinions either.

 It's a visiting day anyway... There's no need to rush back to school. They have plenty of time, so they can take their time and stroll around. It's the same wherever they go.

Several people walked into Zuko.

 Fred and George felt as if they were home, greeting a clerk wearing hoop glasses at the counter familiarly.

 “Hi, Zola, do you have anything rare?”

"Of course..." the clerk pushed up the pair of hoop glasses on the bridge of his nose.

"It's this...maze glasses. People wearing them will always get lost inadvertently, even in the places they are most familiar with."    "Sounds good..." Fred touched his chin, "We can give it to Marcus Get that stupid big guy ready with one so he can probably throw the Quaffle into his own goal."

“It’s a good idea.” George said with a smile: “But the shape of these glasses is too eye-catching. Although Marcus’s mind is closely related to that of the troll, he probably wouldn’t wear such a thing.”

"Don't worry, how could we not have thought of this..."

The clerk tapped the temples of the glasses, and the original hoop glasses turned into a pair of ordinary square-framed glasses.

With another tap, there are a few more coiled snake patterns on the frame, and then there are lions, badgers, eagles... round frames, frameless ones, single pieces...

 “We designed a total of thirty-nine looks.”

 The clerk pushed up his glasses and said, "There is always something suitable."

 “We want it!” Fred and George said in unison.

"How much!"

“Five galleons and ten sickles.”

 “It’s really expensive.”

“New products are all priced at the same price.” The clerk said, “But I can give you a discount.”

 “Ten Sickles?”

 “No, it’s five galleons and nine sickles!”

   …”

Fred and George still bought the pair of maze glasses, but they also replenished their fireworks store in the store.

 Different from them, almost everyone else focuses on “seeing”.

  Connor and Cho were whispering, pointing to a pile of biting hairpins, while Cedric stopped in front of a broomstick.

Of course, the broom is also fake. Once someone rides on it, it sprays glue, sticks to the person's legs, and makes a series of loud "pop" sounds.

 It can be seen that Cedric really wants to buy this thing, but the price of twenty galleons makes him hesitate.

 Too expensive, not worth it.

 When he finally left Zuko, apart from Fred and George, only Kyle bought a box of Bibi's multi-flavor beans.

Zuko’s Bibi Multi-Flavour Beans are definitely different from those in the candy store... none of them are sweet, they all taste bad, and there is almost no difference visible on the packaging.

Kyle is going to give it to a random lucky person as a Christmas gift.

 Then they went to the Honeydukes Candy House, where they could no longer keep the Galleons in their hands.

Rows of shelves are filled with all kinds of delicious and tempting candies, large pieces of creamy yellow marzipan, shiny pink coconut custard balls, honey-colored toffee, countless chocolates, all in one place. Big bucket of normal Bibi’s all-flavored beans…

 Against the other wall are candies with "special effects".

Super Bubble Gum, (can fill the room with bubbles that won’t burst for several days)

 Small, black pepper urchin (can breathe fire after eating it)

There are also those toad mint ice creams that jump in the stomach, explosive gummy candies that really explode, and sour popping candies that can burn a hole in your tongue.

Kyle also saw a pile of cockroaches that Dumbledore loved here, placed in a jar in the corner.

 There are many students in Honeydukes, and everywhere is crowded, except for that place where no one cares.

But think about it, no serious person would buy that thing!
