I can enter Hogwarts in the last days

Chapter 42 Ready

Although it was after 9:[-] in the morning, when Ian opened the door and entered the bar, there were already many customers sitting here. Although it was not crowded, it was still a bit noisy, and the hot hall was filled with smoke.

"Hi! It's another new face, a handsome Ravenclaw boy. My dear, Hogwarts students who come here for the first time have the right to a free drink. This is the rule. Except of course Besides alcohol, after all, I don't want to receive yelling letters from your mother."

Entering the bar, before Ian could recover, he heard a soft and charming voice sounding next to him, only to see the lady of the bar owner, Rosmerta, standing beside him.

Ian only saw a long golden wavy hair, a white face, and a graceful figure. She was a plump and mature woman in the true sense. Only a few wrinkles at the corners of her eyes proved that she was no longer young.

With long eyelashes and violet lips, although she was smiling, Ian keenly noticed that the depths of her eyes were extremely indifferent. In the quiet royal blue eyes, it seemed as calm and deep as the ocean, and brought Ian has a vague sense of danger.

It's always rude to stare at a person. For a moment, after recovering from his senses, Ian quickly said:

"Thank you for your generosity, ma'am. I'd like a honey lemonade, and two pumpkin pies, and a veal steak. Food, and I'll pay for it."

"Oh! Another sharp little guy. Wait a minute, you can find a place to sit first, the food will be ready soon."

Ms. Rosmerta didn't say much, even if this keen little wizard noticed something hidden in her, but after all, she still has her own bottom line, and she is not a real gray figure.

It is precisely because of this that the three broomsticks can stand for many years without falling down, and it is the reason why all walks of life can eat it.

After Ian watched the other party leave, he also found an empty table in the corner and sat down.

He was not surprised by the sense of danger coming from Ms. Rosmerta. After all, this is not a fairy tale world. If a person has no ability, there will be no scum left after being crushed.

After a short wait, the veal steak and pumpkin pie were served, accompanied by a large glass of honey lemonade.Ian is also feasting, rewarding his already hungry stomach.

During this period, nothing bloody happened. After all, Ian is well versed in the way of adult survival. He understands that keeping a low profile is the safe rule. Don't ask, don't listen, and don't talk, and abide by the "three nos" rule.

……

The food cost him 3 Sickles and 7 Nats, and Ian didn't linger too much in the Three Broomsticks after paying the bill.Instead, I chose to continue shopping in Hogsmeade. There are not many shops on the main street here. In fact, this is not difficult to understand, after all, the entire British wizarding community is there.

But even if the number is small, it is far more than the '3000 people' that Rowling once answered.

Not to mention the wizards in the entire British Isles, just one Hogsmeade, Ian probably guessed that there are at least one or two thousand wizards living here.

After all, if there is no corresponding population, so many buildings and the corresponding land area will not be needed, and it is not a "ghost town". No one likes to play the kind of game where the built house can't be left empty.

Therefore, one day is not enough for Ian to visit all these shops, so he is only selective at the moment, and visiting some places mentioned in the original book is also a kind of childhood memory.

……

Zonko's Joke Shop is a favorite place for Hogwarts students to visit.

For this shop with a high attendance rate, Ian also chose to go in with great interest, not because he wanted to buy something, but as I said before, it was mainly a kind of sentiment.

Similarly, he was also a little curious about the so-called magical joke props, what is the charm that so many young wizards are obsessed with, so he just took this opportunity to go in and find out.

The shop is not far from the Three Broomsticks, with only a few houses in the middle.The appearance is also similar to the Honeydukes candy store, with a large transparent stained glass window, which contains a variety of joke props.

Ian pushed the door open, and the bell behind the door rang.

"welcome."

Zuko put down the newspaper in his hand, stood up from behind the counter, and welcomed the guests in front of him with a smile.This is a middle-aged wizard in his 40s, with a friendly smile on his face, which makes people feel good.

There are indeed a lot of various products in the joke shop. Ian walked to the window and looked at these interesting gadgets.

"Auto-answer quill?" Ian whispered the name of the quill.

"It's a quill for you to deal with annoying subjects. It can help you write most of the topics."

Like a qualified salesman, Zuko introduced the functions of the quill to Ian in a humorous tone.

"It's really a good thing."

Ian also dealt with it casually, but he didn't take it seriously in his heart. He didn't need this thing at all, and he enjoyed the fun of learning magic very much.So selling this thing to him is as ridiculous as sending Hermione exam reference answers.

Then he turned his gaze to the other side, this time it was a broom, and Ian specially read the introduction below - the broomstick.

When a wizard tries to ride it into mid-air, the broom will reverse, making the wizard on the broom face down, and there are 5 modes, such as crazy rotation, rapid braking and throwing people away.

The broom can fly up to 3 meters, just like a children's toy broom, the price is 17 Galleons! ! !

The corners of Ian's mouth twitched, feeling that he really echoed the saying in his previous life, women and children's money is the best money to make.

All right!The price is really dark.

However, he also discovered that if the price is not discussed, then the various joke props here are also unique and ingenious.

For example, the frog egg soap that Ian saw, an alternative reverse prop, when it is used to clean, it will become more and more dirty.There is also a biting teacup, once someone picks up this teacup, it will suddenly bite his nose while the owner is not paying attention, and splash hot tea.

Next, Ian saw many familiar objects, such as burp candy, wolf tooth flying saucer, dung bomb, squeaky candy and so on.

Maybe Zoko's sales skills were superior, or maybe Ian couldn't hold back his face. In the end, he chose to spend. He bought two pieces of frog egg soap, a small box of squeaky gummies, and three new looking glasses. It cost less than 5 Galleons.

It is worth mentioning that the alchemy product Sightglass with a high gold content is not as expensive as the Prank Frog Egg Soap, which left Ian speechless.

……

In the following time, he bought a lot of daily necessities and furniture, and when he passed by a herbal medicine store, he also bought 200 pounds of dragon dung. He did not forget that there was a small vegetable garden in the last days. High-quality fertilizer, since you encounter it, buy some.

Finally, I bought everything I could think of before dusk.As for whether there are other missing items, Ian said that it would be a big deal to buy it next time, after all, no one can be considered complete.

After returning to Hogwarts, Ian replenished some supplies in the kitchen.

This time, I chose more vegetables, meat and fruits. Although they cannot be stored for a long time, he has been connected to the power supply in the last days and has a refrigerator that can be purchased at the mall for zero yuan. It is no problem to store these foods for at least a week. of.

Ian is mainly because he thought of Irene, he can go back and forth every month, and with the physique of a wizard, a month's rough food may be nothing, but Irene doesn't think it will work. A long-term single food will cause nutritional imbalance. After a long time, various problems will appear.

Besides, these are not troublesome things, they are just a matter of raising a finger and changing a sentence.In the boring and monotonous life in the last days, there is still a big difference between being with someone and being alone.

Because his return this time was purposeful, Ian also borrowed many books from the library early on. He planned to use this month to study alchemy.
