Chapter 6: Miss Rabbit

"Ten inches long, purple wood, with a thestrals. ”

"Yew wood is often associated with magic and death due to its toxic sap. When the outer layer of the yew tree dies, a new tree will continue to grow from the center, so it is also considered an immortal tree and a symbol of soul reincarnation. ”

Dudley chuckled.

"Thestrals are amazing and magical creatures that only those who have seen death can see them. Because of this, Thestrals were once considered a symbol of bad luck and were said to bring all sorts of terrible calamities to those who saw them. Ollivander recounted in a deep, hoarse voice.

Petunia was startled, and she hugged Dudley and said, "Sir, do you have any other wands?" ”

"Mom. Dudley pushed Penny away, and he said, "It's superstition, you didn't hear Mr. Ollivander, it's a symbol, or maybe it's a myth, and it's a saying." It's all hearsay, don't worry. And it was this wand that chose me. ”

Dudley really liked this assertive wand.

"Yes, superstition, Hogwarts has Thestrals, they are very gentle, my favorite is Uwu. Hagrid said in solidarity.

Eventually, Harry's wand cost seven Galleons and Dudley's wand cost ten, and Mr. Ollivander bowed and sent them out the door.

The equipment and items are basically complete, and I haven't bought any books at the moment.

Dudley's last stop in Diagon Alley is the Blotted Bookstore.

The inside of the bookstore is very large, divided into two floors, you can see the stairs to the second floor when you enter the door, there are rows of bookcases full of books, there are still many books that have no place to place, so they have to be stacked on the ground, some of the stacks of books have been piled up to the ceiling, all of which show that the bookstore has a very rich collection of books.

When he was in the first grade, he had to buy a copy of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", and when Dudley was still in the previous generation, this was also made into a total of two movies, and I heard that Newt and Dumbledore were two or three things when they were young, but unfortunately he didn't have the opportunity to watch it.

It took Dudley a long time to find the books he needed to get into school. One of the hardest to find is Bathilda Basshat's History of Magic, which is hidden in a small corner.

Now that there is at least a month before the start of school, Dudley is going to buy more books to read, including "Hogwarts, a History" and "A Study of the Development of Modern Witchcraft", after all, these are not told in the movies he watched in his last life, and he wants to know more about them before entering school.

"Oh my God, isn't that a squeamish crybaby?"

Dudley heard the domineering voice, and a memory came to mind, and he looked for the voice, and sure enough, it was her, and saw a little girl with a book in her hands, she had brown hair, very thick but unkempt, with bright brown eyes, the most conspicuous of which were a pair of rabbit-like front teeth.

Dudley's face instantly darkened, and he said that he was very unhappy, unhappiness was inevitable, it was a black history that belonged to the predecessor, so black that he couldn't look at it directly, of course, it belonged to him now.

About half a year ago.

At that time, Dudley was still Dudley, he especially liked sweets, otherwise he wouldn't have grown so fat, and eating too many sweets would definitely have bad consequences. So his teeth were broken.

Vernon takes Dudley to the dentist. It was the coincidence that I went to the clinic opened by the little girl's father.

"Doctor, please show my son, he keeps shouting that his tooth hurts. Vernon said as he walked over to the doctor with Dudley in the hand.

"Wait a minute. He said, then he looked at the little girl lying on the bed and said, "Daughter, you go to the sofa next to you and wait for a while, and then Dad will check your teeth." ”

The little girl got out of bed very obediently, sat on the sofa with a book and watched quietly.

"Come and lie down. The doctor said.

Vernon struggled to get Dudley to the bed, and those who didn't know thought Dudley had a serious injury.

After the doctor's examination, he said to them: "The tooth has been completely decayed, and it needs to be extracted, you see, your son is still young, the tooth can grow back, and please don't let your son eat too many sweets in the future, after all, it is not good for the body." ”

"Excuse me, unplug it, okay doctor, I'll take care of it. Vernon was sincere, but with his doting on Dudley, it was impossible not to eat, not in this life.

"Little one, don't eat it again. ”

When Dudley heard that he couldn't eat sweets anymore, his little brow furrowed, and his whole face was about to be tangled.

The doctor took the tool, and as soon as he put the instrument into Dudley's mouth, Dudley writhed his fat body and cried out loudly, "Dad, he hurt me, he hurt me." ”

Dudley's voice made Vernon feel distressed when he heard it, and Vernon relied on the strength of his body to pull the doctor up and scolded him fiercely.

"Quiet. The little girl sitting on the couch screamed loudly.

She closed the book in her hand and slapped it heavily on the sofa and said, "You are making me read a book, aren't you just pulling out a tooth? What a squeamish crybaby!"

Vernon didn't allow anyone to talk about his son, just like the school teacher used to say that Dudley was bad, and he could argue with the teacher, thinking that the teacher couldn't teach.

Vernon was furious, his cheeks flushed with anger, he rolled up his sleeve and pointed at the little girl, but the little girl's father quickly stood in front of her, Vernon and the doctor tugged at each other, and after a toss, Dudley's broken tooth was knocked out in the accident just now, and an expensive instrument was broken.

Vernon was indignantly compensated for the cost of the instrument, which allowed him to leave the clinic.

Dudley sneered at the little girl before leaving, "Miss Bunny with front teeth." ”

Dudley looked at the man in front of him, and without thinking about it, he blurted out, "It's you, Miss Rabbit!"

"You... You... Crybaby. The girl pointed at Dudley and blushed.

Dudley scratched his head, a little embarrassed, how could he accidentally say it, after all, he is no longer the Dudley he used to be, he assured, this is definitely the pot of the predecessor, he does not carry this pot.

"That's... Excuse me, I mean in your clinic that day... Well, Miss Rabbit is actually complimenting you. Dudley said.

The little girl raised her head slightly, glanced at Dudley and said, "Editor, please continue!"

Dudley waved his hand and said, "No, really, definitely complimenting you." I don't know if you've heard a song?" Before the little girl could speak, Dudley sang with a spicy-eyed action: "It's small, it's white, it ”

The little girl was amused by Dudley's movements, and she asked a little arrogantly, "What's your name?" ”

"Dudley Dursley. ”

"I'm sorry, Miss Granger, but I'll go first. Dudley walked up to Hermione and said, "Actually, there's a second half of this song - the white rabbit is white and white, the ears are lifted, the arteries are cut and the veins are cut, and it's so cute to be motionless." ”

Dudley finished saying this and ran away as fast as he could. Hermione couldn't see Dudley when she reacted, and she stomped her foot in place and snorted.

When Dudley went to check out, he found Harry already waiting for him.

As soon as they left the Blotted Bookstore, they saw Penny and Vernon each carrying a cage containing a snow owl.

Penny said, "It's nice to buy an owl for each of you, and I can deliver letters and packages for you." This is for you, Harry. ”

Penny handed Harry the cage in her hand. This is a very beautiful snow owl with snow-white feathers and a few black feathers on its wings as accents.

Vernon handed over the cage as well, and Dudley took it, and the snow owl inside was sleeping soundly with his head buried in his wings. The snow owl's feathers were white and black, like zebra crossings, but dense, and Dudley gave it a resounding nameβ€”white and black.

At the end of the day, Hagrid hugged them separately, his face full of reluctance, gave Dudley and Harry a ticket before leaving, and reminded them that the school would start on September 1 and not miss the train.

Although it was late when Dudley and his group returned home, Dudley couldn't help but look through the book he bought at the bookstore - "Hogwarts, a History", after all, if you want to study at Hogwarts, you need to know about the school anyway.

As early as 993 A.D., the European society at that time was extremely hateful to magicians, in those days, people who did not understand magic, very afraid of people who could magic, in their opinion, magic is evil, the unknown is the most terrifying, as long as they know that if someone can magic, they will send a large number of people to arrest, and then implement capital punishment, at that time it was completely adopted to rather kill a thousand wrong, absolutely not let go of a policy, originally sparse magicians are even rarer under this policy, so four great wizards came into being.

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was founded in 993 by four of the greatest witches and wizards of the time, and Hogwarts was divided into four houses when it was founded, named after them:

Gryffindor House – Godric Gryffindor

Hufflepuff House – Helga Hufflepuff

Ravenclaw College – Rowena Ravenclaw

Slytherin House – Salazar Slytherin

Hogwarts has become one of the three major schools of magic and wizardry in Europe over the years, the entire academy adopts a seven-year school system, and Muggle expulsion charms have been cast near the academy, so Muggles cannot see Hogwarts, and even if Muggles arrive in front of Hogwarts, they will only see tattered ruins with a sign that says 'Do Not Enter'......

Dudley shook his neck stiffly, he noticed that the sky outside the window was already slightly bright, he felt that time had passed too quickly, most importantly that this "Hogwarts, A History" was too immersive.

Dudley closed the book and muttered, "Dog's life matters, sleep, sleep, this time I accidentally stayed up all night, I won't cross again!"
