Aven, Harry, and Hermione excitedly discussed the future design and planning of the store, the items that could be put on sale here, the pricing, and so on.

Lupin alone checks around the house to see if there are any dangers and hidden dangers that need to be addressed. In less than ten minutes, he spotted two boggarts, a dozen litters of rats and spiders, a large group of foxes, and patches of spotted mangs.

It is a parasitic magical creature that is very easy to survive and reproduce.

They look like greenish fungi with eyes, and they are good at crawling under the floor and behind the baseboards, appearing in droves throughout the house.

Usually something rots and emits a foul smell, and spots appear.

As soon as a house has a spotted mantle, they will slowly secrete a corrosive substance that slowly corrodes the foundation of the house.

"Very bad, we have to deal with these patches as soon as possible!" Lupin flipped a piece of the floor open, gesturing for Aven, Harry, and Hermione to look inside.

Evan saw a whole large patch of ground clinging to the rotting floor, and in fright, they hurried away on their untold slender legs.

"Generally speaking, the Sweep Charm would be very effective against Spotted Man. Lupin clapped his hands and stood up, "But there are so many spots here, and a quick action is likely to have very serious consequences, even collapse the house." We'll need to get in touch with the Ministry of Magic's Pest Advisory Committee, and they'll send someone to deal with this. ”

As Lupin said, the house had been abandoned for too long, and it was not protected by all kinds of magic like 12 Grimmauld Place, and the house was in very bad condition.

Just as they were figuring out what to do with the troublesome creatures that inhabited the shop, Sirius walked in.

He had changed to a new wand, a beautiful black wand made of hawthorn wood and the core of the wand was the tendon cord of the dragon's heart. In addition to a new wand, he also carried a cage in his hand. There was a beautiful little owl inside, and he screamed excitedly when he saw Evan and them.

"I just went to the owl store next door and bought this owl for the Weasley boy named Ron. Sirius said, "He might be willing to keep this owl, after all, it was through my fault that he lost the mouse"

"He'll be happy, Ron has always wanted a pet of his own. ”

"As long as he likes it!" Sirius said with a smile, placing the cage on the ground and walking into the shop to look around, "Aven, how do you feel about this place?"

"It's good, it's pretty much what I expected, but it needs to be cleaned up, and before you come, we've found a big patch of land. ”

"It's not surprising that this shop has been unused for too long. Sirius opened the floor and looked at it, frowning and said, "These things are not easy to deal with, we had better go to dinner first, and then visit your friends." In the meantime, I'll tell Kreacher to clean up the place briefly. ”

"Madara can be left to me. Lupin followed, "I have an acquaintance on the Pest Advisory Committee, who is an expert in dealing with this aspect of biology. ”

After a while, they went back to the Leaky Cauldron for lunch.

Then, they set off to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries to see Ron, this time instead of taking the knight's bus, Sirius and Lupin took Aven, Harry, and Hermione and the three of them apparitioned.

After a thud, they appeared on a wide Muggle street.

"Where's St. Mungo's Hospital?" Harry looked around curiously, "Why don't we just apparilate in?"

"When the hospital was first established, the people did this, but as the number of patients grew, the Ministry of Magic banned apparition in the hospital, which was prone to accidents. "As for the location, we're standing at the entrance of the hospital right now. ”

In front of them is an old-fashioned red-brick department store called Taotao Co., Ltd.

It looked dilapidated and deserted, with only a few cracked dummies in the windows, wigs in crooked hair, various postures, clothes from at least ten years ago, and large signs that read "Closed for Renovation" on the dusty doors.

Near a particularly ugly female dummy, Evan felt a strange aura of magic.

"Go this way!" Sirius muttered, pushing Aven, Harry, and Hermione in front of him, "There are so many Muggles here, and there isn't enough land in Diagon Alley, so the Ministry of Magic has managed to find this address to build a hospital on the grounds that patients can mix in the crowd." ”

Beside them was the Muggle Commercial Street, with a constant stream of people and traffic, in stark contrast to Diagon Alley.

"Aren't all these Muggles at home for Christmas?" Sirius asked curiously, "what are they all running out for?!"

"It's a business district where people can come here during the holidays to eat, shop, sing, watch movies and so on. Evan noticed Sirius' puzzled look on his face, and he went on to explain, "Movies are all about a machine that records people's actions and then re-shows them on the big screen."

"I know, it's Muggle magic, and it's about the same effect as a meditation pot!" Sirius looked up and looked around, his right hand unconsciously resting on the wand on his waist, "We'll talk about that later, you three better stay close to me, and if something happens, I'll take action." ”

Looking at Sirius, Evan was skeptical that he really understood what he was saying.

In fact, with the exception of special cases like Mr. Weasley's, wizards knew very little about the Muggle world, and most of them knew about it from hundreds of years ago.

In response to the rapid technological development of the Muggle world, the wizarding world has largely taken a careless approach.

An idea popped into Aven's mind that perhaps he could try to work with Mr. Weasley to introduce some of the more advanced machinery of the Muggle world into the wizarding world, which might have an unexpected effect.

Unfortunately, Hogwarts' defensive magic prohibits the operation of all electronic devices, and can only be promoted in Diagon Alley first.

With this in his mind, Evan followed Harry over to the female dummy in the green nylon dress he had just sensed abnormally.

"We're going in, are you three ready?" Sirius asked.

Everyone nodded, and moved a little closer to the center.

Evan saw Lupin, who was standing at the front, leaning close to the window and looking up at the ugly dummy, his exhalation blurring the glass.

"Hello, we're visiting Ron Weasley. ”

For a moment, Evan thought Lupin looked funny, speaking in such a small voice through the glass, and the street behind him was filled with the sound of passing cars.

The same was true for Harry and Hermione, who looked up at Lupin and Sirius in confusion, and then opened their mouths wide in surprise, only to see the dummy in front of them nod slightly and wave their fingers together.

The next second, they seemed to pass through a layer of cold water, and immediately entered a warm, dry room.

The ugly dummy and the place where she stood were nowhere to be seen, and they entered the St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Injuries. (To be continued.) )
