[HP] When the Sword Fairy traveled to Hogwarts

Chapter 11 The boy in the clothing store

Mrs. Malkin asked Harry to stand on another footstool next to the young man, while Bai Lu stood diagonally behind the young man. That position happened to be the blind spot of the young man's vision, and he did not notice her.

Madam Malkin and another witch put a robe on Harry and Bai Lu respectively, and pinned them to fit their lengths.

The young man noticed someone coming next to him, glanced at it lightly, and found that it was a boy about his age, and he suddenly became interested in talking.

"Hey," the young man turned to Harry and said condescendingly, "Are you going to Hogwarts too?"

Harry was a little surprised that the boy would talk to him, but he was the first peer he came into contact with after coming to the wizarding world. Although he seemed a bit arrogant, out of politeness, he still replied: "Yes. "

"My father is buying books for me next door, and my mother is looking for a magic wand on the street." He spoke slowly and in an annoying drawl. "Then I have to drag them to see the broomsticks. I don't understand. Why can't freshmen have their own broomstick? I think I'm going to force my dad to buy me one and then find a way to sneak it in."

Seeing the boy's willful look, Harry immediately thought of Dudley, although he was much better looking than Dudley.

The boy didn't seem to need his response, so he continued: "Do you have your own broomstick?"

A broomstick? He suddenly thought of the well-made broom that had just been displayed in the shop window in Diagon Alley. At that time, he heard a little boy say: "That is the new light wheel 2000. This is the fastest flying broomstick now."

After coming to his senses, Harry answered truthfully, "No."

"Ever played Quidditch?"

"No," Harry said again, not sure what Quidditch was.

"I have played. Dad said it would be a shame if I couldn't be selected for our college's varsity team. I agree. Do you know which college you were assigned to?"

"I don't know." Harry said. He was a little frustrated. Teenagers his age knew so much, but he knew nothing about it. He felt more and more that he was too stupid.

"Of course, no one really knows which house they will be sorted into before arriving at school. However, I know that I will be sorted into Slytherin because our whole family graduated from there. If I am sorted into Hufflepuff , I think I will drop out of school, what do you think?" The young man's expression was a little proud, but when he talked about Hufflepuff, he was a little contemptuous.

Harry didn't know much about the houses at Hogwarts, so he just hummed, hoping he could talk about something more interesting.

"Hey, look at that guy!" The boy suddenly nodded towards the window in front and said.

Hagrid happened to be standing at the window, grinning at Harry and Bai Lu and pointing to two large ice creams, indicating that he could not enter the store.

"That's Hagrid." Harry said, feeling happy to know something that the teenager didn't know. "He works at Hogwarts."

"Oh," the young man said, "I've heard of him. He works as a servant, right?"

"He's the gamekeeper," Harry said with a frown. He disliked the boy less and less.

"Yes, that's right. I heard that this man was very rough. He lived in a small wooden house on the school grounds. He got drunk from time to time and played with magic. He ended up burning his own bed."

Harry was unhappy when he heard the young man slandering Hagrid. He was about to retort when he heard Bai Lu's cold voice coming from behind.

"It's not a gentleman to speak ill of others behind their backs." Bai Lu had already finished trying on the uniform. She knew that he was from a pure-blood family and maintained his own identity outside, so she deliberately used this to poke him.

The young man seemed to realize that there was someone behind him. He sneered, then turned around to see who was preaching to him.

The boy could clearly recall today's scene long after. At that time, he was already the leader of the Malfoy family. He was mature and stable, and his power-playing methods were just like his father's, but he always had a piece of pure land in his heart.

I saw the sunlight coming in from the window, revealing the clear outline of the girl's slender figure. Her black and smooth hair was coated with a layer of golden light, and a strand of hair hung playfully beside her ears. She was tall and tall, with a beautiful face. There is still some baby fat, and the facial features are exquisite and unique to Orientals. She frowned slightly, which added a bit of sadness to her, making people want to work desperately to solve her problems, just so that she could smile.

The most eye-catching thing was the pair of eyes that were as green as lake water. Obviously the boy next to him also had green eyes, but he just felt that the girl's eyes were more unique and could tolerate everything like lake water.

Bai Lu saw the young man staring at her blankly without saying anything. His mouth was slightly open and he looked a little dazed. He must have been frightened by her sudden words.

At this time, Mrs. Malkin, who was taking Harry's measurements, broke the awkward silence and said, "It's ready, dear."

Harry didn't want to continue chatting with the young man, so he used this as an excuse to say hello to the young man, and then pulled Bai Lu towards Hagrid. Only when the young man came back to his senses did he realize that he hadn't asked their names yet, so he could only Watching them leave.

Hagrid gave each of them an ice cream, and Harry ate it absentmindedly. He thought about the things the boy had mentioned and asked Hagrid his doubts one by one.

Hagrid briefly answered Harry's question. Only then did he know that Quidditch is a sport that wizards like very much, and he also knew what the four major houses of Hogwarts were.

Hagrid also emphasized not to join Slytherin. He said that wizards who later turned evil came from Slytherin, and the mysterious man was one of them.

After hearing Hagrid's comments about Slytherin, Harry's impression of the boy in the clothing store suddenly worsened, and he decided not to enter Slytherin.

Bai Lu felt that Hagrid was somewhat prejudiced against Slytherin, but she did not refute it because she knew what he had experienced. Maybe that experience made him feel that he was not a good wizard even if he joined Slytherin.

Later, Hagrid took them to buy books for school and some other items that needed to be used. He checked the shopping list and found that the only thing he had not bought was the wand.

"All that's left is your wands. Oh, by the way, I haven't bought Harry a birthday present yet."

Harry felt himself blushing, "You don't have to break the bank."

"I know you don't have to buy it. Well, I want to give you an animal, not a toad. Toads have been out of fashion many years ago and people will laugh at you. I don't like cats either. Cats always make me sneeze. I'll give You get an owl. Children love owls, and they can deliver letters and packages for you."

Hagrid originally wanted to buy one for Bai Lu, but she politely refused. An owl is enough for sending letters. She can definitely borrow Harry's. Even if she doesn't use an owl, she has a way. The communication talisman is A very good choice.

Twenty minutes later, they left the dark Eela Owl Shop. Harry was holding a large birdcage in his hand, containing a beautiful snowy owl, sleeping soundly with its head buried under its wings.

Harry couldn't help but stammered his thanks again and again, sounding like Professor Quirrell.

"You're welcome," Hagrid said in a hoarse voice, "The Dursleys won't give you a gift. Now only Ollivanders are left. Only the Ollivanders sell wands. Where are you?" It’s got to be the best wand you can buy.”

Harry suddenly became excited when he mentioned the wand. This was exactly what Harry had dreamed of. Bai Lu was also curious about what her wand would look like.
