Harry Potter: Glory Bows to Me

Harry was pleasantly surprised: "And my share?"

"Of course." Amanta took the huge package packed by the clerk, "But it's not convenient to carry so many things around, so I'll put it in the Sage's Ring first."

"Play?" Harry caught the word sharply.

"You're not really planning on spending the whole day here," Amanta pointed to the colorful Zonko's Joke Shop across the street. "That's one of the most popular places."

"Zonko's Joke Shop!" Harry's eyes lit up and he ran to the window and stared at the store with exaggerated and fancy decorations.

"That's the place I want to go the most!" He put on a pleading expression, "Amanta, Draco, let's go there and take a look, okay? I promise, I'll just take a look!"

Draco was still a little hesitant: "What if the Godfather suddenly comes back and finds that we are not here?"

"Then you can write to your father and tell him that Snape left us at Honeydukes to do his own thing as soon as he arrived."

Amanta blinked her light blue eyes, a little cunningly.

"I believe that this is not what your father and Snape said."

Draco frowned: "That seems to make sense."

The three of them smiled at each other in tacit understanding and looked at the big red and blue sign of Zuko's Joke Shop.

……

As soon as they entered the room they saw Cedric.

Cedric was standing in front of the shelf with a Hufflepuff boy, intently looking at the introduction of a teacup that bit your nose.

"Cedric!" Harry shouted.

Cedric was startled and turned back suddenly.

"Oh Harry! And Amanta and Draco, er..."

He tilted his head and glanced cautiously behind them: "Where's Professor Snape?"

"Snape left us at Honeydukes and left, saying, 'I have to make an important deal, so wait for me—'"

Harry shook his head and imitated Snape's tone.

"Pfft." Cedric couldn't help but laugh at him, and the short brown-haired boy next to him also laughed, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

"I forgot to introduce you. This is my roommate, Andy. He is very good at food spells."

Cedric pulled the brown-haired boy towards him.

"Andy, who are they? I don't think I need to introduce them, right?"

The brown-haired boy with a face full of freckles smiled warmly.

"Hello, I often hear Cedric talk about you guys. But, are you considered to be quite famous in the school? Hahahaha, we deal with each other quite often. We often make rankings and school tabloids and the like."

He shook hands with Amanta and the other two in turn.

“So those rankings and “Naughty Mouse” were made by you?”

Amanta was somewhat interested.

She remembered that Draco had gotten a copy from somewhere before and proudly announced that he had been ranked number one in the Hogwarts hairdressing rankings. However, when she and Harry came over to take a look, they found that it was ranked at the bottom of the rankings.

Adhering to the mentality of not exposing the truth when things are difficult, she and Harry did not expose the truth, which led to Draco still occasionally mentioning this matter and being proud of it...

When talking about his major, Andy beamed with joy.

"I'm one of them. Many Hufflepuffs are participating. Are you interested? But I think they might not let you join. If you join, there might be half less content to write about in Naughty Mouse."

Amanta shrugged. "Well, I guess so."

She grabbed a handful of candy from the Sage's Ring and handed it to Cedric and Andy respectively.

"It's a bribe, but remember to write something nice for us."

Andy accepted it happily. He patted his chest and said, "Leave it to me."

Cedric and Andy took them around the entire Zonko's Joke Shop, and then took them around the nearby Wenrenju Feather Pen Shop and Fengya Wizard Clothing Store.

As they came out of the Fengya Wizard Clothing Store, Andy suggested:

"Shall we go sit at the Three Broomsticks? Have a cup of hot butterbeer - ah, it's getting cold lately, and I miss the taste of it every moment."

"Of course I have no objection."

Of course Amanta and the other two had no objection, and under the guidance of two third-year seniors, they visited all the shops in Hogsmeade village.

They walked down a path and found the Three Broomsticks in the center of Hogsmeade - a little closer to the entrance.

A strangely dressed, hooded man hurriedly passed by them with his head lowered.

The moment they passed each other, she vaguely sensed some strange aura.

Amanta was startled and looked back.

The man took no notice of them and hurried along the path.

She shook her head, unable to describe what she felt just now.

To make sure it wasn't her illusion, she nudged Draco beside her with her elbow.

Draco was looking down, counting the scarves and decorative buttons he had just bought from the Elegant Wizard Clothing Store: "Three pairs - five pairs -"

"What's wrong?" he asked without looking up.

"Do you think that person just now is a little strange?"

"What? Which one?" Draco raised his head and looked back in the direction she pointed.

Andy came over too.

"What are you talking about? Oh...you mean that person?"

The hooded figure hurriedly turned down a side road beside the Hogsmeade Post Office and disappeared from their sight.

"Oh, he went into the road that leads to the Hog's Head... That's not surprising, most of the people who go to that bar are weirdos, who cares? We're going to the Three Broomsticks, the drinks there are the best!"

He enthusiastically pulled them into the Three Broomsticks.

If she hadn't known that he was a Hufflepuff student, Amanta would have suspected that he was sent by the Three Broomsticks to solicit customers.

There were so many people in the Three Broomsticks that they were a little daunted standing at the door.

"Andy, there may not be much room here--"

Cedric shouted over the noisy environment.

Andy pushed forward with all his strength: "Don't worry! Believe me, I will definitely find it—"

Fortunately, several students from the same school recognized Andy and gave up their seats and left.

"See! I told you I could definitely find a seat--" Andy patted his chest and said proudly.

The owner of the Three Broomsticks, Ms. Rosmerta, squeezed through the crowd with a menu in hand. "Everyone, what would you like to order? Sorry, there are too many people here today, so I may not be able to cater well enough."

"Oh, one glass of butterbeer each. By the way, why are there so many people here today?"

Andy shouted, otherwise his voice would be drowned out by the noise of the crowd.

"I thought you youngsters would be interested, Lockhart!"

Madame Rosmerta pointed to where the crowd was thickest, but it was so tightly packed that they could not see anything.

She said comfortingly, "But you don't have to rush. I heard that he is going to teach at Hogwarts. You will have plenty of time to ask him for his autograph later."
