Patch Crucible Shop......

Lady Morkin's robes specialty store......

...... of the Blotted Bookstore

Ollivanders Wand Shop......

Ella Owl Store......

A variety of quirky and exciting shops and restaurants, some with tables set up outside, under brightly coloured parasols. Pei Chen felt very lively when he looked at it, after all, this was the most prosperous formal wizard trading place in the British wizarding world, and there was no one.

"Where do we go first?" Harry looked up at Hagrid and asked, the strangeness of the place was almost dazzling to him.

Pei Chen couldn't help frowning, he didn't seem to have any reason to follow these two people anymore? No, we have to find a way.

"You can buy quill and ink here, and the bookstore over there allows you to buy all the books on your list...... Oh, I forgot, before you can do that, you have to have money first, Harry. Hagrid stopped pointing and looked around, focusing his attention on the bank of a white marble building a dozen meters away.

"But I don't have any money, not a penny." Harry reluctantly withdrew his gaze from a shop cabinet with a streamlined maroon solid wood broom, Halo 2000.

I don't have a penny either...... Pei Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes again.

It's been a long time for him to feel the distress of running out of money again, which is really strange.

"Don't worry, Harry. It's a joke that your money is there, how can you not have it...... Do you think your parents really didn't leave you with anything? Hagrid pointed to the bank and said, his tone a little proud, "Gringotts, the Wizarding Bank, is also the safest place in the world, except for Hogwarts...... It's just a goblin opening. ”

As he spoke, the giant couldn't help but shake his head and continued: "This goblin is very shrewd, and likes to be careful...... The most important thing is that they are not very friendly, you can remember to follow me later, don't talk nonsense. ”

Bank? Pei Chen's heart moved.

Since it's a bank, there should be a currency exchange service, right? I just don't know if the currency of ordinary people can be exchanged for the currency of wizards?

As for the idea of robbing a bank, he was mercilessly strangled to death just after he came out, and everyone dared to claim that it was the second safest place in the world, and it was better not to ask for trouble. Pei Chen has reason to believe that over the years, he is definitely not the only one who has had such thoughts.

Subconsciously touched his body, and his smile that felt that he had just found the dawn and hope instantly froze--! Didn't bring any money!

Pulling out the five pounds he had left, the corners of his eyes twitched violently, and he didn't have to think about it to know that such a small amount of money would definitely not be exchanged for anything.

I'll have to find another way! He looked at the sky a little speechlessly, but heard a slight word in his ear: "Honey, I think you need to buy an owl and take it to school......"

Owl?

A bolt of lightning pierced the fog in Pei Chen's mind, and a faint thought was rapidly forming in his brain.

Maybe you can ...... Uh, but isn't that too undisciplined? I always feel that once this plan is implemented, I will lose something very valuable!

……

……

The cobblestone streets were filled with wizards in robes and pointed hats, mixed with a lot of children about Harry's age, who had also been invited to attend the school of witchcraft and wizardry to buy the necessary items for school.

And because of the addition of these little guys, Diagon Alley is obviously much more lively than before.

However, Mr. Granger was upset by the sight of this situation, and the mess was unbearable, especially for a dentist with mild obsessive-compulsive disorder.

This middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes, dressed as a successful man, is undoubtedly an out-and-out alternative on this magical street, or there is a term that can be used in a long history to classify people like him more professionally and clearly - yes, Muggles.

Yes, Mr. Granger is a Muggle, meaning a pure ordinary man without the slightest talent for magic. But interestingly, his daughter was accepted into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry because she had a talent that she didn't know how to define. Today, he brought his daughter to buy something.

However, the process did not go well, and he was naturally lost on the road of life, along with his lovely daughter.

There are many reasons for this, such as the fact that Diagon Alley is not found on the latest map of London sold at newsstands, or that the Leaky Cauldron, the gateway between ordinary society and the wizarding world, is not open to ordinary people like him...... And so on, all kinds of reasons are very convincing reasons, and no one can blame him.

And after running away for half the city with his lovely daughter, when the angry Mr. Granger was about to complain about the person who bought him the map, someone was finally willing to show him the way, and it was a kind man, God bless him.

But his daughter, a lovely little girl, was too tired to walk after entering Diagon Alley. The distressed Mr. Granger had no choice but to temporarily place his daughter in a dessert shop at the entrance of the alley, while he fulfilled his obligations as a father and personally went out to complete the requirements listed in his daughter's admission letter.

For now, if this is a 20-ring serial task, he has already completed the previous 19 rings, and he has done a very good job.

I think Mr. Granger's daughter would be happy and proud to have such a good father, until she saw what her father had bought her.

On the left is a creature store, there are more than a dozen cages hanging outside the door, different sizes, and there are even more things locked in them, owls are the most common, followed by cats, and even there are giant purple toads, giant turtles and other alternative creatures, and I don't know what kind of aesthetic it is, so that someone will buy such goods as pets.

Mr. Granger looked down at the list in his hand:

- "Students may bring an owl or a cat or a toad. ”

Yes, you can bring pets, but it's weird to have such a pet, right?

Mr. Granger panted and changed his hand to the bag full of books, and hesitated for a moment, but still did not enter the nearest bio store, perhaps the poisonous orange snail scared him. He struggled to carry a large pile of things, avoiding the bear children running around the street, and walked into a very crowded, noisy pet store, a magical zoo full of all kinds of animal sounds.

A female boss wearing heavy black-rimmed glasses greeted her directly.

"Hello, do you want to buy a pet?"

"Yes, I'm sorry, I'm going to buy a pet for my daughter...... Well, she's just enrolled this year......"

……

……

"Ahh

Mr. Granger stood there in embarrassment, looking at his screaming daughter, sitting or standing, and not knowing what to say to comfort his daughter. He smiled awkwardly and turned his head to look at everyone.

Mr. Granger's daughter, the little girl sitting across the table had a very wonderful face, obviously frightened, and stared at a snake in front of her, yes, a snake!

About the length of his arms, he was slender, covered in dark blue scales with black spots, and his eyes shone like rubies...... The snake was lying lazily on the table, as if it couldn't stand the cold air in the dessert shop, and it seemed weak.

This is a pet that Mr. Granger gave to his daughter......

Mr. Granger regretted that he should have thought about it a little longer, instead of making the decision in a hurry - to give a snake to his daughter as a pet to take to school or something, he must have had a brain pump!

"This is your gift to me?!"

Hermione Gritted her teeth and asked her father angrily, if you pay close attention, you can see that the little girl with her thick and unkempt brown hair and bright brown eyes and front teeth still have a little moisture at the corners of her eyes.

Mr. Granger smiled awkwardly again, not knowing what to say. He put everything in his hand on the ground and sat down, before he began to think about how to explain the matter to his daughter.

"It'...... Not a poisonous snake, not dangerous. ”

"But that's not the problem!" Miss Hermione had a strange expression and reached out to point at the snake on the table, but immediately felt that her finger was too close to the snake's kiss, and retracted it like an electric shock, "Who would give a snake to their daughter as a school gift?" ”

Mr. Granger smiled wryly, "But, didn't you say that I don't like cats and I don't want owls...... I don't know what kind of pet you want, so I can only buy this one if I think about it......"

As he spoke, the father cautiously asked, "Why don't you do that?" You'll have to buy your wand later, and you'll have to go there to get the perfect fit. Taking advantage of this opportunity, we went and returned the snake and replaced it with a ...... A toad! What do you think? ”

Toad......

Hermione's face was red and white, very exciting.

Undoubtedly, compared to the ugly amphibian that looked like a close relative of a frog, but had many bumps on its surface and venomous glands inside, she felt that she might be more receptive to the beautiful little snake in front of her.

Of course, it would be better if it could be replaced by a cat or an owl. However, she had just said that she didn't want these two animals, so how could the competitive Miss Hermione change her mind? And if she didn't say anything, Mr. Granger, who had a somewhat wooden personality, would not have offered to do so, for the good father had chosen outside the realm of animals that had been rejected before.

"And what do you think of snails? I saw a fist-sized, orange snail before, but it's said to be poisonous......"

"Spider ...... This kind of seems a little scary, and not many people buy it. ”

"Rats too! I saw that both students were buying mice. ”

“……”

Listening to her father's gushing words and the choices he had given, Miss Granger's heart was shattered, and she was desperate to find that she had no choice at all. Whether it's a giant spider or a venomous snail, compared to these disgusting and curious creatures, she finally discovers how wonderful the baby snake her father bought is.

"Toads are really not a good choice, they are big, ugly, and troublesome to feed...... I heard that it was popular to raise toads many years ago, but now it has long been outdated, and only some old families will buy this thing for their descendants...... My daughter, don't worry, although the notice says that only three pets are allowed, it is not an absolute hard and fast rule...... You know, somebody with mice, somebody with spiders, everything......"

Mr. Granger was still talking, but the little snake on the table lazily rolled over, curled up, and uttered a very slight syllable very covertly.

"Whew!"
