The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

v3 Chapter 3: crook hills

free.

This is the theme for the rest of the summer. Harry can sleep until he wakes up naturally every day, and then eat what he wants, he almost ordered the entire Leaky Cauldron menu! His movement is almost unlimited, as long as he does not leave Diagon Alley, he can go wherever he wants. Taking this opportunity, he visited all the surrounding shops.

Of course, he still has his own summer homework. But he no longer had to hide under the quilt and do his homework sneakily with a flashlight. He could sit outside Florin's ice cream shop and finish his thesis with Tom and Hermione openly. The enthusiastic store owner gave them three free ice creams every half hour.

Tom deserved it, so after a fierce refusal, Tom handed over three Galleons at once, and for the entire summer vacation, Florin Fosker's ice cream would be available to them in unlimited quantities.

"I'm going to be a ball!" Hermione grumbled, enjoying a yogurt-flavored ice cream. Hermione was originally a fruit ice cream pie, but under Tom's strong Amway, she fell in love with plain, vanilla and yogurt flavored ice cream.

"So you really blew up your aunt, Harry?" Hermione asked Harry, lounging in her seat. Just a minute ago, she had finished her History of Magic essay. The progress was slower than expected, because she added a lot of things later, and the more critical factor was that she never wore the Ravenclaw diadem in public. Out of prudence, she only wore it in private, and no one but Tom knew about it.

Hermione, who finished her big thesis, became a little lazy. Even if she was as studious as her, she wanted to take a breather and take a break from her busy schedule.

"I really didn't mean it." Harry spread his hands, "To be honest, I couldn't do it again, and I didn't know that this kind of thing would happen at the time... What the hell? Your history of magic paper is so written long?"

His eyes fell on Hermione's parchment.

At first, he thought that the big roll was the draft paper bought by Hermione, but after a closer look, he found that the roll of paper was densely packed with words, and such a big roll was actually Hermione's papers! Everyone in Harry looked dumbfounded.

"No, I have deleted a lot of things." Hermione raised her head proudly, "The main reason is that there are too many things to write in ancient Egypt. If I am not afraid of exceeding the limit, I can write more. many."

Harry expressed incomprehension to the behavior of such a big guy who wrote papers that reached the upper limit of words. Generally speaking, he wrote according to the lower limit of words. Tom on the other side smiled and said nothing. In the end, Hermione's waste manuscripts were all cheap to him. Anyway, the themes of the two are somewhat similar, so he can use them with a little modification.

"By the way, you went to Egypt for the summer vacation?" Harry realized only after seeing Hermione's paper, as if Ron and they had chosen the same country for their vacation.

"Yes, we also met Ron's second brother, Bill. Unfortunately, we were busy traveling and only saw him once."

"Well," Harry said regretfully, "if you wait a few days, you may be able to travel in Egypt with Ron. His second brother is a spellbreaker at Gringotts, and he may be able to take you to participate in unusual events." adventure."

"Our adventure is exciting enough," Hermione couldn't help sighing after hearing this, "a lot of inspiration in the paper comes from that adventure."

Harry: ...

"By the way, why do you think Fudge let me go? I received a formal warning from the Ministry of Magic last year because a house elf smashed a piece of pudding at my uncle's house—they said that if someone uses magic again, Just expel me from Hogwarts. But this time I blow up my aunt without any punishment."

"Maybe it's because of Black? I guess." Hermione guessed instinctively, "It might also be the scavengers I met on the bus."

Strange to say, after they handed over the Scavenger to Cornelius Fudge that day, there was no more news, and Fudge only issued a small notice in the newspaper to inform the matter, which did not cause any disturbance, nor It can reverse the tense atmosphere in the magic world.

In addition to studying together, Tom and Hermione also took time to buy all kinds of school supplies including textbooks.

The days passed, and as the first day of school approached, Hogwarts students poured into Diagon Alley. Here, the three meet several familiar faces every day. Harry had also been keeping an eye on Ron.

Finally, on the last day of summer vacation, Harry met Ron. Ron looked good, and after ordering an ice cream, the two sat on the table next to Tom and chatted.

"Hermione, if I remember correctly, it seems that your birthday is coming soon?" Tom, who was flipping through the calendar and looking at the school year timetable, passed a date with his finger and realized something.

"Is there anything you want?"

Hermione rested her chin on her hand, thought for a while, and was not embarrassed, but said naturally: "I want an owl. After all, it's a little inconvenient without an owl. Your pigeon can only deliver letters. You see , Harry had his Hedwig, Ron had Errol—”

"I don't have an owl," said Ron, who sat on the table next to him. "Errol's my family owl. All I have is Scabbers." He took his pet mouse from his pocket. The mouse was a little thinner, not as round as before, and its beard drooped listlessly.

Tom looked at Banban indifferently, then looked away. He didn't have any interest in Scabbers, or he didn't care about what happened to Harry this year, and didn't want to interfere. Tom knows exactly who Scabbers is, but it's best not to expose him. This mouse is of great use.

He can achieve one very important thing.

"Why don't you send it to have a look? There's a magical creature shop over there~lightnovelpub.net~ Harry pointed to the corner of the street. The current Harry is more familiar with Diagon Alley than Ron," Hermione said. You can also buy the owl you want there. "

"Okay," the four stood up and walked towards a pet store called Wonder Zoo. Tom has been here before, bought a pigeon here, and won a bird snake egg through a lottery.

After two years, I came here again, and the layout of the store has not changed much.

Ron walked to the counter and asked the teller to help him check Scabbers' body. Tom was very interested, and watched in amazement as the clerk checked every corner of Banban's body over and over again, even Little Dingding was not spared.

Suddenly, a huge ginger-colored figure jumped over, landed on the counter with a bang, and roared at Banban.

"Crookshanks, stop!" the teller yelled in panic.

Hermione, who was picking out the owl, was attracted by the sound.
