When everything was almost bought, Hermione reached out for his wallet and said, "You know my birthday in September, and this time I have to leave early to Brazil, so my parents gave me some money to buy myself a birthday present, and the budget is fifteen Galleons in total." ”

"It's a very loose budget. Ryan said, "You wouldn't give yourself a book for your birthday, would you?"

"No, of course not. Hermione denied: "I decided to buy a pet because after two school years, my school life was on track." It's time to consider getting a pet companion. ”

So the three of them crossed the street to the pet store called the Amazing Zoo. The small space in the store, coupled with the fact that there are cages hanging from every inch of the wall, makes the store smelly and noisy. The sounds of various animals mingle together and make people have a headache.

Because there was a witch who bought a rare bird of paradise, the shopkeeper kept showing the witch how to raise it. In this case, the three of them could only look at the cage in the store in boredom.

There are many pet breeds here, the most common ones are owls and cats, but there are also some uncommon animals, such as a large turtle with a jeweled back shell and a fire crab that constantly spews flames from the back of its butt. There is also a blue bird that keeps turning itself into all kinds of flowers.

Eventually, the shopkeeper sent away the witch who kept the bird of paradise, and found Ryan waiting there. "What do you need?" asked the shopkeeper.

After some selection, Hermione bought an owl that looked like a huge owl with dark and brown feathers, and most notably the owl's head had long ear feathers on either side of its head.

"It's an eagle owl. As she walked out of the pet store, Hermione held the cage to Ryan and showed them. "I thought about it for a long time between a big orange cat and it, but thought about going on a study tour far away this year. In order to facilitate communication, I finally chose this big owl that I heard from the owner that it can fly intercontinentally. ”

"Ah, eagle owls. I know about this bird. Some people believe that its bone soaking wine can cure broken bones, so hunt them. Ryan thought of something to say.

"It's terrible. Hermione shook her head.

"Of course, most countries in the Muggle world have legislation that makes it illegal to capture them. Ryan added.

After chatting all the way, everyone returned to the Leaky Cauldron Bar, where they met Nawei and his grandmother. After seeing them, Mrs. Longbottom stepped forward to shake their hands and thanked them for helping Longbottom make up for his classes last semester and making Neville's final exam results more satisfactory last semester.

After some pleasantries, Mrs. Longbottom took Naville to Diagon Alley to buy something. Ryan and Hermione, on the other hand, took the subway home after saying goodbye to Harry.

Walking out of the subway station, Hermione asked curiously, "What is that magic you used in the bookstore, and why have I never seen it?"

"It was a centaur magic, Wolfe taught me. I found out that these books had some of the properties of creatures, and I wondered if I could use this magic to soothe life. Anyway, even if this magic fails, it won't hurt anything. In the end, you see, I succeeded. Ryan pushed the magic onto the centaurs, and no wizard could be found to be fully trusted by the centaurs except himself.

Hermione accepted Ryan's explanation and said enviously, "Centaurs, a race that can coexist with wizards to this day. I'm sure they must have something special. ”

"Actually, this is an application of ancient magic, and with the birth of modern magic, these spells are slowly becoming rare among human wizards. But there are some ancient races that are still intact. ”

"I see, it seems that I need to have more access to knowledge, and I can't just stare at books. Hermione nodded in realization.

A few days later, Ryan packed his belongings at home and wrote to several of his classmates from pure-blood families to ask for news about Castro's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Soon these friends replied one after another, with Neville's letter being the most detailed, detailing the school's history and current specialties. However, these detailed and organized contents do not seem to have been summarized by Neville himself, but more like the handwriting of Old Lady Longbottom.

Think of Old Lady Longbottom's age, and take care of Neville, who is both a father and a mother. Even in order to help his grandson build a good relationship with his friends, he wrote these things himself. Ryan also had to sigh with emotion.

On August 27, after a hearty breakfast early in the morning. Ryan's family set off in the family's RV. As soon as I turned the first intersection of the house, I saw Granger's blue Volkswagen SUV parked at the intersection. Yesterday, the two of them agreed to set off together today.

By half-past nine, Lane and the others arrived at King's Cross Station. So they sat for a while in the café at the train station. It wasn't until the hour hand reached a quarter past ten. After listening to his parents' advice and reluctantly hugging goodbye. Ryan and Hermione pushed the luggage cart one after the other and entered the platform of the nine and three-quarters.

Probably because it was still a little early, there were only two or three scattered students on the platform except for an old guard, and there were only two or three students walking on the platform or sitting on the benches.

However, Ryan found out that they were all senior Slytherin students, so he and Hermione found a bench away from them and sat down, and took out the ancient magic textbook and began to read it.

After reading it for a while, Ryan realized that the ancient magic text textbook has the writing method and pronunciation of the magic script, but the most important part of the soul is missing.

No wonder there are fewer and fewer people in this class, and the magic script that cannot be injected can only be said to be a special language and writing, and it has no magic effect at all. This kind of magic without the means of infusion has no practical effect after it is finished. Naturally, this subject slowly turned from one of the foundations of magic to an unpopular course.

Ryan felt that the current situation was likely a means for the pure-blood family to maintain the family's status. Thinking about it, I also know that there is a high probability that those families have various methods of injecting spirits in ancient times. The little wizards who could only learn from school only relied on a simple introduction to their own methods of infusion, and except for some geniuses, most of their methods were far inferior to the methods that the predecessors of the pure-blood family had worked hard to summarize. This naturally achieves the goal of monopolizing knowledge and confirming the superiority of pure-blood families.

It's the same thing that very few combat spells can be learned at Hogwarts, where pure-blood families maintain their place in the wizarding world through their control of knowledge.

Thinking about these things and not, half an hour passed. The students also rushed to the platform one after another. Finally, there was a whining sound in the distance, and the red steam head of the Hogwarts Express appeared on track around the corner.
