Chapter 228: Hogsmeade's Trip (Subscriptions, Collections, Votes)
The next day was Saturday, and after getting out of bed and pulling back the curtains, Ryan was bathed in golden sunlight.
Today he was going to Hogsmeade, the first time he had been to Hogsmeade this school year. The first few times because he was an exchange student in Brazil, he didn't make it. This made Ryan a little excited, as he hadn't visited the wizarding business center on a par with Diagon Alley before, and was eager to see the difference between it and the movies in his previous life.
When he finished packing up and went to the common room, he saw the Weasley twins and Ron with excited faces on their faces. Ron, in particular, seemed to be coming out of the bad mood of losing him.
Because Professor Dumbledore had not allowed Ryan to pass on the matter, Ryan and Percy had to tell Ron that the mouse had been borrowed by Professor Dumbledore for the time being.
After greeting each other, we went to the restaurant for breakfast together. Ryan was drinking milk when a large flock of owls flew from the ceiling. After a while, he heard the discussion around him getting louder and louder, and at the end it was as noisy as if he were in the middle of a Quidditch pitch in action.
What happened? Ryan looked curiously at his classmates as he held up the Daily Prophet and shouted, "Oh my God, Sirius was wronged. And it was the students of our college who found out about this. ”
"What, really?" "Who is it?" "What the hell is going on?" all the students now knew about it, and they started talking to each other.
"Hey, I really didn't expect that it was the rigid big brother in our family and you who did such a big thing. Ryan felt someone tap him on the shoulder, and he turned his head to see that it was the Weasley brothers standing behind him.
Lane learned what had happened when he took the Weasley brothers' paper, and it was written that under the wise leadership of Minister Fudge, the Ministry of Magic had decided to re-open the suspected case in accordance with the law.
Amelia, the director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement?? During his visit to Hogwarts, Bones listened to the suspicious reports of two Hogwarts students, and finally succeeded in capturing Peter Voldemort's lackey who was lurking in the school. Pediru. and cleared Sirius Black's criminal suspicions.
In an interview this morning, Minister Fudge declared that this was a sign that the Ministry of Magic was trying to correct the shortcomings and mistakes of the past, so that the Ministry of Magic could better lead the development of the British wizarding community. He also appealed to everyone to find Sirius as soon as possible, and told him that the Ministry's misjudgment had been corrected, and that he was now free and able to obtain the Ministry's apology.
"Bad things become good things, and the bureaucrats of the Ministry of Magic will do the same. Ryan scoffed at the article in the Daily Prophet. However, there is some useful information in the later reports.
For example, it was announced that rewards would be given to Hogwarts students Percy and Ryan for helping, as well as the recall of all Dementors and the end of the curfew at Hogsmeade.
"At least those pesky Dementors are gone, which is good news. The twins said with a smile.
Ryan also received a hint from the system: he gained 20 offset points for changing Sirius's fate. It seems that the rewards for the things that Sirius has done to exonerate him before are really not small.
The news of this morning quickly spread throughout the school, and as he walked through the front door after eating, Ryan could feel that many people were watching him.
"The book says that the Murakami inn was the headquarters of the 1612 monster rebellion, and that the screaming shack was probably the most ghostly house in all of Britain—" Hermione muttered to Ryan as she waited in line for inspection.
"Okay, relax. Recently, you have been busy with a lot of time for the book club, and you must know that combining work and rest is the best way to do things, and it is not a good idea to be blindly busy. Ryan said as he spoke.
Hogsmeade is a pretty little village, and the historic sites don't have the professional flavor that Ryan had imagined. Come to think of it, after all, there aren't that many people in the wizarding world. If it is a very professional museum, it is estimated that few people will come to see it.
For example, the small hotel, which is a very important fairy rebellion headquarters in history, only has a small room to restore the appearance of the year, plus a small bronze plaque next to it is engraved with the beginning and end of the incident.
So these historical sights were quickly finished, and the rest of the time Ryan and the two of them spent visiting the entire Hogsmeade Village. The Deves and Bans store, the Fengya brand wizard clothing store, the literati house quill shop, and the post office with hundreds of owls. Each of these places left a deep impression on them.
After a light meal at Three Broomsticks at noon and a try at the very famous Butterbeer (everyone around was cheering for the Dementors to get out.) They followed the road in front of the three broomsticks up a slope to the screaming shack. I have to say that the butterbeer is indeed a good thing, even if the clothes are blowing a little bit on the slope due to the high geographical location and the wind, they can still feel that the butterbeer they have just drunk makes their bodies warm.
The screaming shack sits on this little perch, slightly higher than the other houses in the village, with its windows nailed to its planks, and its garden is damp and overgrown with weeds.
While Hermione leaned against the fence to look up at the haunted house, Ryan picked up a sharp stone and carved the word dog on the pillar next to the haunted house's garden door. According to the plan discussed with Blake in the common room last time, once Ryan succeeds in bringing Blake's injustice to justice. Then he'd carve the word into the pillar next to the door of the Screaming Shack, telling Blake that he could reappear in the public eye.
After carving the words, Ryan and the others quickly followed the path back to the village. After all, a screaming shack is really nothing to see from the outside. Passing by Jokowi's Joke Shop, you can see Ron and his two twin brothers shopping for a variety of joke products.
"Wizards' magic may limit their imaginations, and I haven't figured out what's fun about throwing stinking at each other. Watching Ron and his twin brother buy a lot of, Hermione spitted.
"It's probably the same custom as the traditional Scottish man who doesn't wear plaid skirts in panties. Ryan guessed as he walked down the road, and finally, they came to the door of another store. "Here we are, this is Duke Honey's Confectionery. I read that the student handbook said that we were allowed to buy candy that would not have any obvious magical effects after consumption to our immediate family members, and I wanted to buy some for my parents. ”
"Can I bring it to my parents? Then I'll buy some too. Hermione said.
When they walked into the store, they saw that there was shelf after shelf, filled with the most intriguing candy one could imagine. Chunks of creamy peanut candy, shimmering pieces of pink coconut sorbet, hundreds of chocolates of all kinds arranged neatly, a large bucket of flavored beans, and a bucket of bee candy.
Leaning against the wall are a variety of candies with "special effects": Bubble Gum, bizarre fragmented mints, tiny black pepper urchins, ice rats, creamy mints shaped like toads, crunchy candy quill pens, and exploding candies.
The two of them spent an hour in the store, and finally when they returned to school, Ryan and Hermione each carried a large bag of candy. It can be said that today's trip to Hogsmeade was very rewarding.
