Chapter 8: Is Mom a Wizard Too?!

Mom's ability to open her eyes and tell nonsense is getting stronger and stronger.

Tom gave Cynthia a thumbs up in his heart.

"Keru?" Professor McGonagall set her eyes on Korubellos.

But Rubelos quickly raised his paws, stuck out his tongue and licked it.

"yes. Cynthia also looked at Korubellos and sighed, "Although Koru is a little bigger than the average cat, the important thing is that Tom likes him. There's no way around it. ”

Professor McGonagall understood.

Afterwards, Marcus drove and the group came to the address that Professor McGonagall had stated.

After getting out of the car, Professor McGonagall led Tom and Korubelos into the Leaky Cauldron.

Professor McGonagall briefly introduces Diagon Alley to Tom, and after nodding to Tom, the owner of the Leaky Cauldron, leads Tom and them out of the baryard into Diagon Alley.

Even though Hogwarts hasn't had summer holidays, Diagon Alley is bustling with people.

Tom and Corubelos' eyes were almost glued to the shops on either side of the road, causing Professor McGonagall, who had been watching them secretly, to smile.

"First, you'll have to go to Gringotts and exchange Muggle currency for magic currency. Professor McGonagall said.

The group followed Professor McGonagall to Gringotts.

A leprechaun in a scarlet and gold uniform at the door immediately led the Toms into the hall, and Professor McGonagall stood politely in the doorway waiting, not following up.

In the hall, hundreds of elves sat behind the high counters and busied, and the busy scene almost made Chromelos lose his image as a pet.

"At your service, Ms. Hunt. "A goblin saluted Cynthia.

Tom and Chromelos were speechless.

What's going on?

Tom's eyes widened.

Professor McGonagall had just said that Muggles had to exchange money for the first time they came to Diagon Alley - because Muggle currency was of no use to wizards.

And the goblins here actually recognize Mama Cynthia!

Tom looked at Marcus in disbelief, and was even more shocked to see Marcus' calm face.

But Rubellos moved to Tom's side and opened his mouth.

Fortunately, although Tom was surprised, he also remembered the identity of Corubelos, and slapped Corubelos on the head directly to prevent him from speaking.

"I want to open a small vault for my son. Cynthia smiled at the elf and said calmly, "Tom is also old enough to go to Hogwarts, and pocket money is indispensable. ”

The goblin immediately bowed down, and after a short time of busy work behind the counter, he returned with a key.

Seeing Cynthia's acquaintance with the goblin, Tom was surprised again.

He looked at the counter, the elves didn't treat the robed wizards as politely as they did to Cynthia.

Could it be that my mother is a very powerful wizard?

Tom pondered.

It's no wonder that when I received my acceptance letter from Hogwarts, my parents didn't look surprised at all.

He suddenly found that the performance of his parents before had a reasonable explanation at this moment.

Mom and Dad, who would have been very worried about their safety, were not only not surprised, not nervous, but also completely worried when they knew that he was going to Hogwarts.

Tom thought that he had grown up and was not as cute as he was when he was a child, and he also thought that it was because he had been refusing his mother's request to let him wear a small skirt that his parents did not love him before.

Now it seems that this is all because his mother is also a wizard and has also attended Hogwarts, so she is so relieved to let him leave home and go to school alone.

Thinking of this, Tom's mood improved, and even the disgusting speed of the cart leading to the underground vault became comfortable.

But why didn't mom tell him that she was also a wizard?

According to his mother's character, when he became a magician, his mother should have told him in that proud tone that she could also do magic!

Tom was lost in thought again.

The way the goblin touched the door to open the vault didn't bring Tom back to his senses.

It wasn't until Cynthia slipped a heavy bag of gold coins and a key into Tom's hand that Tom realized that he already had a vault of his own.

He put the key away, put the bag in his pocket, stepped forward and hugged Cynthia, and took the opportunity to whisper to Cynthia, "I'll keep it a secret for you, Mom." ”

Cynthia was stunned for a moment, then reacted, knowing that her son had arranged a reasonable explanation for her actions in her mind.

She touched Tom's hair lovingly, and whispered, "Thank you, Tom." ”

Immediately, Tom let go of Cynthia and walked majestically towards the gate of Gringotts with Chromelos.

He didn't see it, and Cynthia behind him was smiling and talking and laughing in a low voice with Marcus.

When Professor McGonagall saw a few people come out, she led them down Diagon Alley to buy the items Tom needed to go to school.

When they were shopping for textbooks at the Blotted Bookstore, Tom also consulted Professor McGonagall to buy a few extra books for his extracurricular reading.

As Tom passed by the Florin Fosco ice cream parlor, he was immediately captivated by the delicious ice cream.

The three adults watched Tom buy five portions of ice cream, and even Professor McGonagall, who was not smiling, accepted the ice cream that Tom handed her.

Rubelos eats up the ice cream in one bite, and stealthily tells Tom that he wants another one.

"Eating too much is not good for your health. Tom touched Chromeus's head, "But I promise you, every time you come to Diagon Alley, I'll buy you one." ”

But Rubelos' eyes lit up with joy.

After eating the ice cream, Professor McGonagall led Tom to a nondescript shop in Diagon Alley.

"Now it's just your wand that hasn't been bought. "Ollivanders is an excellent wandmaker, and here you can always find the perfect wand for you." ”

But Rubellos looked at the small, small, dusty wand shop and pouted in disgust.

Tom began to worry about the pink wand around his neck.

However, he quickly remembered the wand Professor McGonagall had used in the backyard of the Leaky Cauldron, and he was relieved.

As long as the new wand wasn't what the Kulo wand looked like, he was happy to accept it.

Professor McGonagall pushed open the door to the dilapidated wand shop and let Tom inside.

"Welcome, welcome. The old man's voice rang out out of thin air in the deserted shop, "It's another young wizard who has just entered the school." ”

Probably Tom had adapted to the magical phenomena of the wizarding world, and he was not surprised to see a skinny old man suddenly appear.

"Good afternoon, Ollivanders. Professor McGonagall said.

"It's a rare rarity," Ollivanders' tone was no longer so erratic, "it's been a long time since I've seen you as a Muggle wizard's guide." ”
