Chapter 139: Shopping Trip (Reward for My Rivers and Mountains)

As the days passed, the excitement of the treasure hunt slowly faded and the days got back on track. At breakfast one day, Ryan was eating a boiled egg. The announcer on the TV suddenly began to read a new piece of news, which immediately caught his attention.

“... The public must be aware that Blake is armed and extremely dangerous. A hotline has been set up, and whoever knows Blake's whereabouts must report it immediately. Then a picture of a man with a thin face, surrounded by tangled and a foot-long mess of hair, appeared, looking a little menacing.

"It's a little strange, isn't it supposed to be a report on which prison this escape came from, why is it not reported? Could it be that this person is a special prisoner of the military or intelligence services?" said Mr. Lambert, as he spread jam on his bread.

"This man is a wizard, I used to see this man when I was looking up the history of the wizarding world through old newspapers in the school library, and legend has it that he killed a dozen people in one go. ”

"Oh my God, it's so dangerous. Mother Sally exclaimed.

But the strange thing is that he didn't run after killing people, but waited where he was arrested. In the end, he was sent to the wizard's prison without trial. ”

"Uninterrogated?" Mr. Lambert noticed the word in Lane's words. That means he didn't necessarily commit a crime, or he might just be an unlucky guy who unfortunately appeared at the scene of the murder. So you have to be careful when you go to school over there, I feel like the wizarding world is insecure. ”

"Alright, you go ahead with your meal. I don't think my son will have anything to do with this kind of wanted criminal. Sally shouted a little displeased as she watched the father and son begin to discuss the murderer.

"Okay wife (mother), let's shut up and eat now. Ryan and his son looked at each other for a moment, and hurried to eat obediently.

Ryan felt that he might be a fake protagonist, because the rest of the holiday was uneventful, and he didn't meet Sirius in the form of a dog that many of the protagonists in fanjin could encounter.

During the last week of the holiday, Ryan and Hermione took the subway together to go shopping in Diagon Alley. Just opened the door on the back wall of the Leaky Cauldron that led to Diagon Alley. Then they heard someone greet them.

"Ryan, Hermione, here!" Following the sound, they saw Harry Potter sitting in the bright sunlight outside Florin's cold drink shop, with quill pens and parchment piled high on the table in front of them, as well as a box of praline.

"Oh, it's a pleasure to see you again, Brother Hai said in the letter that you will go to Brazil for exchange and study in the first half of the school year this year, is this true?"

"Yes, a total of 12 students were selected to go to Brazil for exchange. I heard that the Ministry of Magic is going to resume international exchange activities that have been interrupted for more than ten years due to the war, and at the same time set an example for similar exchange activities in the future. Ryan explained to Harry.

"I'm so envious that you could go so far away, like I can't even go to Hogsmeade this year. Harry said with some frustration.

"You've got a lot of luck, and Longbottom wrote me a letter asking me some of the summer homework problems, and told me that you had blown up your aunt during the holidays. You didn't get any punishment in this situation, and to be honest, I think it's a little incredible. After all, according to Longbottom's description, there must be a warning for minors to release magic outside of school. Ryan said seriously.

"I didn't mean to do it," Harry said, "it was just a moment out of control, because she had insulted my parents so much." ”

"It's understandable, but you'd better think about it later when you're doing these things. It's just lucky that you weren't punished this time, but we can't pin all our hopes on luck. ”

"Alright, it's all over, isn't it okay for Harry. Ryan looked at Hermione and wanted to preach again, and quickly changed the topic: "We still have to buy a lot of books this year, I think we should hurry up." ”

"I'll go with you, I've been in Twin Corner Alley for over a week. Harry immediately put the paper and pen on the table in his bag, then jumped to his feet to lead the way.

They first went to the potion shop to replenish the potion consumables, and then went to the Lady Morkin Robe Shop to buy a few new robes, as well as the dress robes needed for this study tour. I have to say that after entering adolescence, the parents are very fast, and the old school uniform is too short to wear.

Even Ryan had to make a new Assassin outfit for himself in the Fallout world using the skin of the deathclaws, while renewing the Hidden Blade and Hook to fit the new figure. In particular, the Hidden Blade is made of metal that remains near the heart of the Glowing Sea Explosion and is purified as a raw material, and the runes of Runes are inlaid with gold and silver mistaken techniques. This also gives the Hidden Blade some resistance to magic.

Eventually, they went to the bookstore to buy new textbooks, and when they went to Brazil for an exchange, they would get the textbooks from there when they arrived. However, Ryan and Hermione still need Hogwarts textbooks for self-study.

As soon as he walked to the front of the Blotted Bookstore, Ryan noticed that an iron cage was now placed in the window where he used to find all kinds of esoteric-looking golden books. In the cage, there were more than a hundred large books with golden titles on the green covers, and they were clumped inside.

Walking into the bookstore, the manager walked up, "Are the Hogwarts students coming to buy textbooks?" "Yes," Ryan said, "We want two copies of the Yokai Book of the Yokai," Ryan said, looking at the book list.

"I really don't know which professor asked for these books, and when they were purchased, they were sent directly in a cage, and it was not easy to pick them up. Not to mention that they have been running on since they were stocked, and I swear I will never enter this kind of book again. The manager grumbled, putting on a pair of thick gloves, picked up a thick, scarred cane, and walked to the cage.

Ryan sensed the book in the cage with his magic, and then suddenly said to the manager, "I have a spell that can temporarily settle them down, can I try it?"

"The stun spell will definitely not work, if the strength is small, it will only anger them, and if the strength is strong, it will set the book on fire. The manager turned his head to look at Ryan and said. "Are you really sure you can do it?"

"If you break the book, I'll accompany you. Ryan swore by it. The manager saw that Ryan was so confident, so he stepped out of the way and made a gesture of please.

Ryan walked over to the cage and slashed a golden rune in the air with his wand, then recited the incantation in Old Viking: "Pacify." As soon as the words fell, all the books immediately stopped playing, and one by one fell to the bottom of the cage and lay there quietly.

"Oh, that's great, you guys hurry up and bundle up all these books. The manager beckoned the clerk to quickly bundle up the books, and then said to Ryan: "I will give you a seven-fold discount on the three of you today's consumption." ”

Ten minutes later, the three of them walked out of the bookstore with the books they had bought. Looking at the school bag, you can see that they have bought a lot of books, Hermione and Ryan have bought several more reference books in addition to textbooks, and even Harry has bought a book related to Quidditch.

And the happiest person besides the manager of the bookstore is Ryan, because he received a reminder and gained two offset points. As they pass by the window, they can see that the cage is gone, replaced by a display stand and a tightly tied rope to the "Yokai Book of Yokai".
