According to Alina's introduction, the items that wizards need are generally purchased at the wizard shop in Diagon Alley, so everyone agreed to go shopping in Diagon Alley together on Sunday, and Ye Chen also stayed at his eldest brother's house for this reason and did not go back.

During the whole dinner, everyone listened to Alina's introduction to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which not only made Ye Chen and Ye Cong more aware of the wizarding world, but also made Jason full of expectations for the new school.

However, Alina told him, "Even in the wizards' schools, you have to complete countless homework, and if you fail the final exam, you are likely to repeat a grade." This made Jason, who thought that the life of the magic school was all about playing with a wand all day, immediately disappointed a lot.

"Why do wizards have to do their homework?" Jason always asked reluctantly.

On Sunday morning, it was rare not to get up early to prepare breakfast, and when Ye Chen came to the living room, Alina had already prepared a hearty breakfast, and even Jason and Kress, who usually stayed in bed, sat at the dining table early and waited.

"Uncle, you're up too late." Jason sat on a chair with cutlery and called Ye Chen.

"Why are you two little ones so early today?" Ye Chen sat next to Krees, "Isn't the little princess sleeping lazy today?" ”

"Uncle, where have I ever slept in," Kreese retorted to Ye Chen reluctantly with a pout, but she didn't seem to have much confidence. "Uncle, do you think I can go to magic school in the future?"

"No problem, Chris, you can do it." Jason encouraged, but then his words changed, "Ever since I was a child, I thought you had the potential to be an old witch. ”

"Nasty Jason." Kreese gave him a blank look.

"Boys, hurry up and eat, we'll have to go to London in a moment." Alina placed breakfast in front of the two children and urged them to eat. Mr. and Mrs. Ma had already finished breakfast and walked in the garden, and Ye Cong was also sitting on the side reading the newspaper.

Yesterday I learned from Alina that to enter Diagon Alley, you have to pass through London's Leaky Cauldron Bar, so you need to rush from Liverpool to London first. It takes about 2 hours to get to London by train from Liverpool, so Ye Chen and the others were ready to go out early.

Trains in the UK, like the underground, do not distinguish between trains, but depart from one city to another according to the time, leaving at regular intervals. From Liverpool, it's a two-hour drive to London's Euston station, followed by an underground tube ride to all parts of London.

"The Cauldron Bar is a passage for wizards to enter Diagon Alley, although it is in the middle of the city, but due to the magic cast, ordinary people basically can't notice that there is such a bar in the street lined with shops, and many wizards use such a disguise charm."

"All the items that freshmen need are on the list, Jason, get the list out."

"Yes, let me find it." Jason pulled his backpack and pulled out a piece of parchment.

"Jason, I'll buy you an owl when the time comes, so you can write home letters."

"Mom, don't you have a phone at school?" Jason apparently thought the owl was meant to play.

"No, wizards never wanted anything from us." Alina entered the wizarding world from the ordinary world, so she also felt helpless about the bad habits of wizards.

Led by Alina, Ye Chen and the others passed by bookstores, clothing stores, restaurants, and movie theaters, but none of them seemed to have any connection with magic, it was just a very ordinary street crowded with ordinary people. Slowly, they came to a small, dirty pub, which at first no one noticed, and the hurried people did not look at the small shop, and their eyes slid from the big bookstore on one side of the street to the record on the other, as if they could not see it at all. If it hadn't been for Alina to stop, they would have walked over.

"This is the Leaky Cauldron Bar, but I don't know why it's closed today." Alina looked at the sign posted at the door of the bar "Closed", she had not been in contact with the wizarding world for many years, and Alina did not know the specific situation in the wizarding world now, and naturally did not know why the Leaky Cauldron Bar was closed.

Just when they didn't know what to do, a man in a violet cloak appeared at the bar counter, as if he saw the crowd at the door, and he slowly approached the door.

"Hello ma'am, is there anything I can do to help you?" An old man with gray hair walked out of the bar in front of Alina.

"Hello, my son received an acceptance letter from Hogwarts this year, but I don't know why the Leaky Cauldron is closed?"

"Hehe, another little wizard," said the cloaked old man with a smile. "I'm sorry, ma'am. Tom had died, and I didn't want to do it anymore, so the Ministry of Magic agreed that I would close the bar for the time being, and that someone would continue to open the bar in a few months. If you want to go to Diagon Alley, head to the Weasley Appliance Store in front, where many people have been entering Diagon Alley over the years. You can go there and Mr. Weasley and tell him you're going to Diagon Alley. ”

"Yes, thank you." The old man turned back to the bar, and Alina thanked him and watched him go.

Ye Chen, who was standing on the side of the street, saw a spacious shop not far ahead-Weasley Electric, which should be the entrance that the old man said.

In stark contrast to the Leaky Cauldron Bar, the Weasley Appliance Store is clean and spacious. Like the clothing stores on both sides, the clean and bright glass shows the whole picture of the store, and the tall and ornate signs draw attention to the store from afar, and people at the door come and go from time to time.

The spacious store is filled with different types of electrical appliances, and it's hard to imagine that this is a magic-related shop. Maybe it was because he saw Ye Chen's family standing at the door, and immediately the clerk came over to ask.

"Hello, is there anything I can do to help you?" A young female clerk asked politely.

"Hello, we're looking for Mr. Weasley." Alina asked the clerk for the name the old man had told her.

"He's our shop manager, right in front of the workbench in the pit." The clerk pointed to a man at a workbench in the corner.
