Once you have the money, it's time to accomplish what you're here for—the long list of must-have items on the appendix.

Old John shook the bulging bag in his hand, and there was a crisp crash, which was the sound of wealth from the gold coins inside.

John Sr. also used coins, but he was still used to using paper money when it came to large transactions, but he didn't expect the wizarding world to use gold coins as it did a long time ago.

Well, let's go shopping for clothes first. Ios looked around and saw that Lady Morkin's robe shop was closer to him, so he decided to start with the robes.

Walking into the store, before he could speak to John Sr., a kind-looking Humpty Dumpty lady came over and looked at Ios: "Honey, is it Hogwarts school?" ”

Seeing Ios nodding, she continued, "You will buy a lot of the things you need here, and we can provide the uniforms required by the school here." ”

Madame Morkin made him stand on a bench, then put a robe directly over his body, and cut it like that. In a few moments, a well-fitting robe was ready.

At this size, Madame Morkin went on to make two more robes and a cloak that looked quite thick.

After paying the price - some gold Galleons and the two walked out of the robes shop, they then walked towards the Blotted bookstore.

When Ios showed his list to a clerk, he directly brought out a bundle of books, and it seemed that the bookstores and schools had passed the gas and knew exactly what books they needed as students.

After buying the textbooks, they were not in a hurry to leave, and walked around the bookstore. There were all sorts of strange books, some of them even alive, and when Old John came across one, it shook a little, startling him.

Then they found other mysterious books, books full of strange symbols, and books with no content. After a satisfied mood, they finally left the bookstore.

Next, they purchased a set of crystal bottles, a pair of binoculars, and a brass balance that looked very good.

John Sr. wanted to buy a shiny cauldron for Ios, but Ios pointed to a line on the list: Ash products, size 2.

However, it's not all attractive shops, and there are also some that people don't want to go in at all, such as the pharmacy where they are staying now.

Buckets of sickening-smelling gooey liquid lay on the floor, jars of herbs, dried roots, and shiny powders lined the walls, while bundles of feathers, teeth, and claws hung from the ceiling.

After buying the required ingredients, the two of them hurried out of the pharmacy and took a deep breath of the fresh air outside.

"Hmm... It seems that only the wand was not bought. Old John took out the list from his pocket and looked at it, checking it one by one, and found that most of the items had already been bought.

"yes, there's a wand shop over there, I've seen it before." Pointing to a shop called the "Ollivanders Wand Shop", Ios spoke.

When they reached the front of the shop, they found it cramped and dilapidated, with peeling gold letters on the door that read: Ollivander, a fine wand maker since 382 BC.

And in the dusty window, only a wand lay quietly on a faded purple mat.

As they stepped into the store, a crisp bell rang and the small room was empty of nothing but a chair. Maybe I can't say that, after all, there are countless boxes all around, layered on top of each other up to the ceiling.

"Good afternoon." With a soft voice, an old man with big, shining eyes suddenly appeared in front of them.

"Hello." The two responded to him as well.

Ollivander stared at Ios: "Child, what's your name?" ”

"Ios, Ios Sovor."

Ollivander nodded, and took out a long ruler with silver markings from his pocket: "Which hand do you use to hold the wand?" ”

"Right hand." Ios replied.

"Well, stretch out your arm." With the measuring stick in his hand, he meticulously measured all parts of Ios' body, from his shoulders to his fingertips, his wrists to his elbows, his shoulders to the ground, and finally his entire head.

While measuring, Ollivanders introduced to Ios: "Each Ollivanders wand has a core made of extremely powerful magical items, and I use the hair of a unicorn, the feathers of a phoenix, and the nerves of a dragon.

No two Ollivanders wands are the same, because no unicorn, phoenix, or dragon will ever be the same. Of course, if you use a wand that doesn't belong to you, it may not work as well as you want. ”

Speaking of which, Ollivander finally finished counting, and the silver tape measure fell directly into a ball and fell to the ground, he pulled out a box from the side and took out the wand inside:

"Try this, ebony and dragon nerves, 8 inches, slightly bouncy."

Ios took the wand and didn't react at all, and when Ollivander saw it, he directly pulled out the wand and replaced it with a box.

"Cypress and phoenix feathers, 9 inches, very nice wand, give it a try."

"No, no! Try this again—"

Ios took one different wand after another, but it didn't take long for Ollivander to replace it with another one, and the boxes piled up next to him got higher and higher, but Ollivander not only did not have the slightest impatience, but on the contrary, he looked happy.

"Really picky customers, but we're sure we'll find the right wand. Look at this one—beech and unicorn hair, ten inches long, elastic, and powerful. ”

As soon as Ios touched the wand, he felt a warm current rush to his fingertips, and he waved it, only to see a bright light light on the tip of the wand, illuminating the slightly dark room.

"Congratulations, Mr. Sowal, you've found your wand!"

"Thank you."

After paying Ollivander a few gold Galleons, Ios and John Sr. left the small shop.

The successive miraculous things that John Sr. had apparently lost his previous composure, something he had never seen in his decades of life.

I saw that his eyes were shining with inexplicable brilliance, just like a child discovering a favorite toy, and the whole body was full of active breath.

"Would you like to shop around and see if there's anything else you like to buy?"

Ios quickly rolled his eyes, obviously he wanted to see more, but he still said very obediently: "Well, I still want to buy an owl, and I can send you a letter when the time comes." ”

"Oh, yes! Owl! It is said that wizards always use owls to deliver messages, right? Old John didn't know what was in mind, and he was even more excited.

Seeing his red face now, Ios was worried about whether he would have a myocardial infarction or something because he was too excited, so he had to nod.

So they entered the owl shop, which contained all kinds of owls, large and small, and some of them were sleeping on the shelves in their cages, after all, it was daytime.

But there are still many owls who are awake, wizards' owls, and some peculiarities are normal.

When they saw the two of them coming in, they stared at them motionlessly, their heads moving with their movements, and even turning their backs, looking a little creepy.

Eventually, Ios chose an owl with gray feathers and occasional brown feathers, like spots.

"From now on, you'll be called Spike." As he walked out of the shop, Ios held out a finger to tease his owl, and the owl pecked his finger affectionately, as if accepting the name.

Next, it's time to wait until September 1 and head to King's Cross Station.
