Leaving Gringotts, Joe is led by Julie to the target Blotted Bookstore.

The shelves of this bookstore are piled up to the ceiling, and there are huge leather-faced books like paving slabs, small silver-shelled books that are as small as postage stamps, books with countless strange symbols, and wordless books with nothing written inside.

Joe, with Julie's help, begins to select the books in the bookstore.

He first wanted the first year Hogwarts textbook, (as for why he only bought the first year, of course, he was afraid that Julie next to him would be suspicious), and then Joe bought some very useful auxiliary books, such as "Hogwarts, a School History" and "A Thousand Magical Herbs and Fungi", some of these books can let Joe understand the wizarding world beyond the seven books of "Harry Potter", and some can help Joe lay a good foundation and expand his knowledge, anyway, he has the expertise of memorization and quick learning, so he is not afraid of too many books in his hand at all.

After buying a lot of books, Joe scavenged around the bookstore before giving up.

The Blotted Bookstore is really only a bookstore that sells books on junior wizards, and not even the other "Powerful Potion" with a "compound potion" written on it does not sell.

Joe thought about it again, walked to the counter, ordered some books on Occlumency from the owner of the Blotted bookstore, and walked out of the bookstore.

Then Joe went straight to Florin's cold drink shop, bought two large boxes of ice cream, and then pulled Julie, who had been helping, and the two sat on the bench with a box of ice cream each, eating and resting.

Maybe Joe was really tired, or maybe years of childhood life had affected his habits. In short, he is now gobbling up and eating all over his face. Cute look, funny Julie laughed.

"Eat slowly, eat slowly. I'm not going to rob you. "I know, my sister is the best. "Little ghost, your mouth is so sweet, you can't steal your parents' money and run away!" "How can I be! I want to be the man of the Aurors." How could they sneak out!"

Joe's series of "cute" actions made Julie let out a string of silver bell-like laughter, and the laughter spread far and wide.

Because of the age advantage of Joe's body and such a simple (cunning) pure (cunning) and (false) love (pseudo), Julie didn't have any suspicions about Joe at all. So in Julie's eyes, Joe has also succeeded in becoming a child who likes to run around, is eager to learn and likes all kinds of magic. Joe also learns that Julie is a recent Hogwarts graduate and is now working in a potion shop in Hogsmeade Village, and has just returned to see her parents and sister who live in London during the holidays. However, to Joe's surprise, Julie's sister Joe is very familiar, her name is Hannah Abbot, and she will later become the wife of Neville Longbottom, an important supporting character in "Harry Potter".

What a coincidence!

After resting for a while, Joe decided to buy the last and most important thing of the day - Floo powder

When it comes to buying Floo powder, it's important to learn how people in the Muggle world get into the wizarding world. In the original book, there are four related methods, including the hidden passage in the Leaky Cauldron Bar that appears in Ha 1, and the column leading to the platform of Nine and Three-Quarters in the train station. Then there are the Floo fans used in "Ha 2", and the phone booths used by Harry and Sirius in "Ha 5".

The hidden passage in the Leaky Cauldron is obvious, and it requires the help of a wand to open it. If you look closely at the original book, you will know that the brick that activates the passage needs to be struck with a wand to take effect.

The column leading to the nine-and-three-quarter platform in the train station. Well, Joe remembers that Dobby in "Ha 2" once blocked that passage, which shows that there is a high probability that that passage can be closed. If Joe's guess was correct, the tunnel was only open for new Hogwarts students and holidays throughout the year. After all, the train station has a lot of passenger traffic, and the chance of being hit by a Muggle is quite high.

As for the phone booth used by Harry and Sirius. The devil knows it's that. There are so many phone booths in London, Joe can't look for them one by one.

Therefore, the most suitable method is to use Floo powder.

Floo Powder is a glittering powder that wizards use to teleport through a fireplace (only fireplaces connected to the Floo Net can be used). To use it, the user must stand in the fireplace, grab a handful of Floo powder, clearly state the name of the destination, and then sprinkle the Floo powder. Or the user can put Floo powder into the fireplace (with or without ignition) and then step inside. After that, you can teleport directly to the fireplace at the target location.

As for Joe, although his home is not connected to the Floo network, he can borrow the fireplace of the Leaky Cauldron Bar for teleportation, which is quite convenient, and the Floo powder is also very cheap, only two sicos per spoonful.

Saying goodbye to Julie and agreeing to exchange letters, Joe dragged his tired body home.

When he opened the door, he was very surprised that his parents came back early today, and they were waiting for him. "Come into the drawing-room, I think we need to talk," said Joe's mother, Anna Gul.

Following his mother to the living room, Joe discovers that his father, David Goole, has been waiting there.

The three of them sat in the living room, David poured himself a cup of black tea, and added a cup to the mother and son, and then, David stared at his son and did not speak.

Half-loud, Anna couldn't help it, and she nudged David dissatisfiedly. David then slowly spoke: "Son, you are very smart, very talented, and very studious. Your mind is more mature than your peers. Your mother and I know you have some little secrets. Hmm, can you tell us?"

I have to say that in Western education, parents still attach great importance to their children's independent personality. Especially Joe's outstanding performance in the stock market during this period made it difficult for David and Anna to treat Joe as a child anymore.

However, Joe's heart was a little tangled.

It's actually hard to hide your own special features in the face of people who get along day and night. And even if you don't say anything about your own wizarding talent, your parents will know about it when you write from Hogwarts at the age of 11. Moreover, if you have the support of your parents, it will be much easier to lay a good foundation in the past few years and even face Voldemort after entering school. But now the only question is, can their parents accept that their children are wizards?

People are always afraid of the unknown, think of Dumbledore's sister Ariana, who was seen by three Muggle boys when she was a child when she was inadvertently casting magic, and the three boys did terrible things to her, and since then she has lost control of magic, and the magic is in her body, driving her crazy. And then there's a long story. But to sum it up, it can be said that those three Muggle boys are the main culprits responsible for the tragedy in Dumbledore's family.

Thinking about Dumbledore's tragic family, Joe is scared, but David and Anna can feel the sincerity they have been to themselves over the years. After hesitating for a while, Joe decided to confess.

I've always been too soft-hearted. Joe thought silently.
