Chapter 4 Shopping with Hermione
In fact, even Lin Daodao himself didn't expect to see the plot characters on the first day he came to this world, but generally speaking, whether it is Mrs. Morkin from the robe store next door or Old Tom at the Leaky Cauldron Bar, they seem to be plot characters.
Hermione looked at Lin Dao Dao with a shocked expression, but Lin Dao Dao did not continue the topic just now, and instead said: "Miss Granger, a truly powerful magician does not mean that he has more than ordinary people, but that he has mastered magic. ”
"My sister is a powerful magician, but unfortunately she was a struggling learner without my help. ”
Lin Daodao deliberately made a regretful expression, which immediately made Hermione smile brightly, and everyone could hear that this was a joke.
"I can see you're going to buy a lot of books, but look at your small size, forget it, let me help you get these books out later." Lin Daodao pondered.
"Why are you helping me, sir?" asked Hermione, confused.
Lin Daodao smiled brightly, as if he had been waiting for Hermione to ask this question, and took out Dumbledore's reply with great speed and speed.
"As a teacher, it's normal to help your classmates, even though Miss Granger won't be in my class this year. Lin Daodao smiled, "To introduce me officially, my name is Lin Daodao, and I am the assistant teacher of prophecy at Hogwarts this year. ”
"Professor!" the British aunt who had been listening to Lin Daodao's words next to her exclaimed, "It's hard to imagine that you are actually a professor at Hogwarts." ”
"Actually, I don't want to be a professor, but I'm helpless. Lin Daodao shook his head and frowned,
"Why?" Hermione was finally relieved at the moment, as a newcomer who had dismantled her magic for the first time, she was extremely curious about what Lin Daodao said.
Lin Daodao sighed: "Because I am poor, well, in order not to let myself have no food, I can only look for a job everywhere." Luckily, Dumbledore responded to my resume. ”
"You don't look like a professor at all. Hermione said with a smile.
"That's true. Lin Daodao nodded, "It's also my first time as a professor." ”
Lin Daodao blinked, causing Hermione to giggle.
"Alright, Miss Granger, I think you're here today to buy the things that a first-year student must-have. If I need a guide, helping future students is one of the things I should do as a professor. ”
"Thank you, Professor. ”
Hermione agreed to Lin Daodao's suggestion, although it seemed that Hermione was a little too innocent to trust someone so easily. But this is not to blame Hermione, after all, the identity of Professor Lin Daodao can really make a magic budding give up his vigilance.
Hermione did pick up a lot of books, even boring history books like Hogwarts: A School History. However, Lin Daodao didn't care, but after accompanying Hermione to buy the book, he took the little girl to the Lady Morkin robe store next door.
Lin Daodao's robes need to be freshly made, but in order to cope with the new students every year, Lady Morkin has already prepared a lot of clothes for new mages.
Three sets of plain overalls black
A plain work hat worn during the day, black
A pair of protective gloves.
A winter cloak.
When he returned to the robe shop, Lady Morkin had already finished Lin Daodao's robe, so Lin Daodao took the robe and went directly back to the fitting room to change clothes, and this time was just enough for Lady Morkin to choose suitable clothes for Hermione.
Lin Daodao has never been a person who is too friendly to strangers, and the reason why he is so enthusiastic about Hermione must be related to Lin Daodao's last life. I have to say that although the role of Hermione Granger is not too attractive, the actor bonus of this role is too high!
Maybe Hermione is just an SR, but after the actor bonus, Hermione can definitely become an SSR!
That said, there seems to be something wrong with this metaphor.
It didn't take much time to buy the robes, and after changing into the robes in the fitting room, Lin Daodao helped Hermione buy everything else she needed.
This was thanks to Madame Morkin's robes, after all, with the professor's uniform, Lin Daodao's identity became more and more trustworthy.
"Thank you, Professor, for your help. After purchasing most of the items, Hermione expressed her gratitude to Lin Daodao.
"Professor's duty, Miss Granger. Lin Daodao maintained an elegant smile, pushing the luggage cart in his hand, and the contents of the cart were Hermione's.
"Ninety-nine percent of the items have been bought, and now only the last one remains. Lin Daodao said with a smile.
"Wand!"
The little girl's eyes revealed curiosity and excitement, but she was immediately suppressed, and then looked at Lin Daodao and asked, "Professor, where are we going to buy a wand?"
"Go to the Ollivanders, it's said to be 100 years old. Lin Daodao said.
"Ollivanders?"
"That's right, because the owner of the shop is a bad old man named Ollivander, who likes to scare children with some unclear wand theory. ”
Hermione was stunned, she didn't expect Lin Daodao to describe a person like this.
Seeing Hermione's blank eyes, Lin Daodao thought for a while and explained, "Although his theory does have some truth, I don't like this kind of reasoning. After all, the essence of magic is magic, not a wand, and a wand can be used as an aid, but it cannot be the dominant one that limits the magician. ”
"I don't understand at all, Professor. ”
"It's okay, you'll understand in a few years. Okay, here we are. ”
Hermione raised her head when she heard this, looked up, and sure enough, she saw the name of the Ollivander store.
"Is this?" asked Hermione cautiously.
"That's right, let's go, let's go inside. ”
Hermione was stunned again, because Lin Daodao had been waiting outside when he was shopping before, but this time, Lin Daodao said that he was going in too.
"Don't worry, Miss Granger, as a professor at Hogwarts, I need a wand too. ”
"The professor doesn't even have a wand?" asked Hermione, surprised.
"It's a sad story, we don't have a wand in our village. ”
Lin Daodao ran the train with his mouth full, and then, Hermione took a serious letter.
Pushing open the door of the store, Lin Daodao followed Hermione inside. The inside of the store is extremely dim and the space is not large, although the store occupies a lot of land, but except for a small open space and a bench, the rest of the store is filled with cabinets.
The cabinets are full of boxes, and the boxes are covered with dust. Perhaps because the ancient society represents an average value, the dust on the cabinets in this store is extraordinarily thick.
"Professor, there doesn't seem to be anyone here. Hermione asked in a whisper.
Lin Daodao shook his head: "It's okay, he's here." ”
As the words fell, there was a sudden sound of objects moving behind the cabinet not far away, and then a ladder floated out.
There was a bad old man standing on the ladder, and after seeing Lin Daodao and Hermione, the bad old man showed a surprised look.
"Welcome, young Mr. Professor, this is your daughter?"
Hermione's eyes widened, and Lin Daodao's heart instantly blacklisted the bad old man in front of him.
