————

The clerk at the Blotted Bookstore was indeed unlucky today, and when the crowd dispersed, he could only honestly crouch there and pick up the books scattered all over the floor, and then put them back in place one by one.

It was a troublesome affair, and the hapless clerk tidied up the bookshelves and prayed like the most devout believer to the gods whose names he couldn't even name, praying that the two middle-aged men who had caused him trouble would be unlucky this year.

While he was busy, the door of the bookstore was suddenly pushed open, but no one entered.

A middle-aged man wearing sunglasses stood at the door of the bookstore, looked inside, stomped his foot in annoyance, and said to himself, "I'm late again?!!!"

Hearing this, the clerk turned around curiously, but there was nothing at the door, only the hot summer breeze squeezing in towards the house.

Shaking his head, the clerk walked to the door, and he turned the "Closed for Rest" sign hanging on the door turned over to "open for business".

No matter what happens, business still has to be done.

==================

The Weasleys, possibly Mrs. Weasley, were in a bad mood, and everyone else seemed very happy. If it weren't for Mrs. Weasley's town, they might have been in the thick of a discussion.

The brothers are clearly settled, and the ranking of DPS is still divided into high and low.

Neville wasn't interested in this kind of thing, and those two scum scum with only five combat power didn't feel a sense of accomplishment at all, after all, a wizard without a wand was basically a wand.

"This year's Defence Against the Dark Arts professor is Lockhart?"

That's what he said in the bookstore. ”

"Well, no wonder we have more of these things in our textbooks. ”

Ron was tempted to throw that stack of books in the trash, but the problem was that if he did, Mrs. Weasley would throw him in the trash too.

The group made their way to the Leaky Cauldron, where the Weasleys and Harry could use Floo Powder to return to the Burrow, and from where the Grangers could leave Diagon Alley. As for Luna and her father, the first-year students had a lot more to buy than the second-year, and Luna hadn't bought her wand or robe yet.

As he walked, Neville stopped abruptly, and under the bewildered gazes of the others, he spun in place, then frowned, and said, "I feel as if something is following us." ”

"Is it Lucius?" asked Mr. Weasley, but quickly shook his head, "It shouldn't be him, he's not badly hurt." ”

"Who the hell could it be?"

Neville's eyebrows furrowed in the midst of speculation, he hadn't figured out who was following them, but he didn't have the feeling of being spied on now.

"He seems to be gone. Neville said, "I don't feel any malice, I shouldn't be a bad person." ”

Harry's eyes flickered as if he had thought of something, and he prayed in his heart that it wasn't the same thing, for he was in a miserable situation.

It was just a small episode, and soon they were at the Leaky Cauldron, and it was time to say goodbye.

They said goodbye at the bar, and Mr. Weasley wanted to ask the Granger couple what the Muggle bus station was like, but seeing Mrs. Weasley's expression, he had to shut up.

Harry took off his glasses and carefully slipped them into his pocket before going to pick up Floo powder, which was clearly not his favorite way to travel.

Soon, Neville was the only one left in the Leaky Cauldron, who was here guarding what Luna had already purchased, and when she had bought her wand, she would go back with her.

Diagon Alley has many exits, and the Leaky Cauldron Bar is one of them, so the flow of people here is still relatively large.

The back door of the bar was pushed open, and a middle-aged man in sunglasses walked in, looking tired, and walked to the bar to buy a cold beer. However, after he was still five or six meters away from Neville's table, he suddenly stopped, turned around casually, and returned to Diagon Alley through the back door.

He didn't stay on Neville for more than a second, knowing full well that if he did, he would definitely be discovered by Neville, and it wouldn't be fun.

[Now is not the time to meet......]

The middle-aged man can only comfort himself like this, because of the nature of his work, he has to avoid some people, be a low-key person, do things in a low-key manner, and finally make a big news at a critical time.

But then again, since Neville is also at Hogwarts, there are some things that don't need to be worried at all.

Taking out a small notebook from his bosom, the middle-aged man flipped to a certain page, and then typed an "x" after the second line of the only seven lines on that page.

His gaze swept over the following lines, and finally stopped at a place name, closed the small notebook, and said silently in his heart: "I hope this time I don't run for nothing." ”

===============

The holiday season is finally over.

At eleven o'clock, Hogwarts was about to start, and a qiē outside the window quickly fell backwards, and the life of the second year was finally about to begin.

Looking out the window, Neville suddenly realized that time was passing much faster than he thought, and what had happened at the beginning of last year's school year seemed like it was just yesterday.

[When the eyes are opened, the day passes; if the eyes are not closed, a lifetime passes.] 】

Neville thought of what Lyle had said, and he finally understood what it meant. Neville didn't think much of it, though, because he still had a lot of books to read.

"Break with a Female Ghost", "Traveling with a Ghoul", "Gilderoy Lockhart Teaches You to Get Rid of Household Pests", "Vacation with a Dominatrix", "I Can Magic", "Walking with Trolls", "Traveling on a Boat with a Vampire", "Wandering with a Werewolf", "A Year with a Snowman", ......

With so many books piled up, Neville had to admire the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for the new semester, just writing so many books was not an easy task, not to mention that according to Hermione, it was all Lockhart's own experience.

Although Neville admired Lockhart, he still felt a headache if he really wanted to read all these books. So he looked at Hermione, who was also holding Lockhart's book and was reading with relish, and asked tentatively, "Uh, Hermione, do you have to read all these books?"

"No, I don't. ”

Hermione's answer relieved Neville, but he soon sensed the malice of the world.

Hermione picked up two books, and Neville thought he could just look at them, but Hermione tossed them aside and pushed the rest of the books towards Neville.

"Those two books are generally written, you just have to read them all. ”

“......”
