Chapter 101: Return to England
"I guess next time I'll use Muggle transportation to go back."
"I think so."
Ricardo's face twitched, and he repeatedly used his wand to fire a new light on his clothes.
If you want to go from France to England through the official channels, you must apply to the Ministry of Magic for the use of fireplaces. He and Barburing came back with this thing, which caused them to be covered in dust.
"Where are you going later?"
Barburing asked as she cleaned the dust off her body.
"Me...... Let's go straight back to school. ”
Ricardo thought about it and realized that there really wasn't much to visit in the British Isles, at least, not as much of an interest as research or combat.
"It's true that the professor hasn't been to Hogsmeade for a year," Barblin shook her head and teased, "the world is so boring for you?" Just want to study magic? ”
"I'm still interested in this world," Ricardo looked into the distance, his pupils inexplicably deep, "but if I want to understand it, I need to learn magic." I want to stand on top of a higher mountain and see the world. ”
The Reborn have an almost instinctive obsession with being powerful, and Ricardo is no exception. Even without the Defence Against the Dark Arts curse, even without the gaze of a god, sooner or later he would be exposed to deeper magic.
This kind of "instinct" is as powerful as Voldemort will not understand, and wisdom as Dumbledore will not understand, perhaps, only Chino may understand a little, which is also an important reason for him to calculate the two demon kings.
"I don't really understand your persistence, after all, it seems that you don't have the need." Barburing sighed and said.
Ricardo laughed back. This is the mainstream thinking of the bright side of British wizarding society, not interested in becoming stronger, as long as life is satisfied.
Dumbledore is the ceiling of the wizarding world and the patron saint of British wizards.
"I have a reason to be stronger." Ricardo came one last sentence.
There is also the ambition to become stronger, he said in his heart.
Barburing laughed: "It's me who is abrupt. However, Minerva wants me to pick up a professor in Diagon Alley, so why don't you go and see it too, and then come back together, how about that? ”
"What subject?"
"Defence Against the Dark Arts class."
Ricardo thought for a moment: "Well, I can go to the bookstore and see how the books I use for my class are selling." ”
But a few minutes later, Ricardo felt deep remorse for this decision -
"Merlin's beard," he exclaimed, "how many people are there!" ”
There were far more than just two of them going to the bookstore, and there was a large crowd of people outside the store, all wanting to enter.
A large banner was pulled upstairs:
Gilderoy Lockhart
Autobiography "I Can Magic" is signed for sale
Today from 12:30-4:30 p.m
"Ah, this ......," Ricardo was dumbfounded, "I think I'll have to learn from this guy how to write a book and not hit the streets." ”
The majority of the crowd seems to be married witches. A weary-looking wizard stood in the doorway and said, "Ladies, be quiet...... Don't crowd...... Beware of book ......"
The zigzag line runs from the doorway to the back of the bookstore, where Gilderoy Lockhart signs books.
Large-format photographs surround the bookstore, as if it were a uniform. The faces in the photo are all blinking at the crowd, showing their white teeth.
"I didn't expect it...... Our new professor is so popular," Barblin narrowed, "a thief who earned the Merlin Medal by improving his memory magic......"
Ricardo's ears flickered and he didn't answer.
"Professor Silva!"
A surprised voice came from a distance, and a girl with a lion's mane head ran over and greeted him.
But...... Who's going to do this?
"Hmm......" Ricciardo thought for a long time, and finally gave it a go, "Hufflepuff Gryffindor?" ”
??? "Good morning, Hermione Granger, Professor Silva never likes to remember names, and according to his students, everyone in class has to walk off the podium and bang on someone's desk to answer questions. ”
Hermione:......
"Well, that's right," Ricardo said with a smile, spreading his hands, "I don't remember." ”
As we all know, the longer you work as a teacher, the more you can't remember names.
Hermione froze for a few moments, then finally smiled, "Okay, good morning, Professor Barburing." ”
While Ricardo was embarrassed, a trace of doubt flashed in his heart.
Babling also didn't teach Hermione, didn't even talk to hermione, why did she remember Hermione Granger's name?
Besides, Hermione was a Muggle, so why should you know about her?
Ricciardo put his doubts in the bottom of his heart and asked, "I'm very sorry Miss Granger, it looks like you're here to buy textbooks today?" ”
"Yes!" At the mention of this, Hermione immediately put the unhappiness just now, "I'm here to buy Professor Lockhart's book!" Although I already have a copy of "I Can Magic", I want a book with his signature, and although it is a bit expensive, I think I am so happy that Professor Lockhart's signature is worth the price......"
Ricardo and Barblin looked at each other and forced a smile.
"Hermione!" Harry in the back couldn't take it anymore and shouted.
Only then did Hermione realize that she had Amway star Amway on the professor's head: "Oh...... I'm sorry, Professor, but I mean, Mr. Lockhart is ......."
"It's fine," Ricardo said mildly, "it's okay to worship heroes at your age." Hey? Mr. Potter, why do you have a smell of dark magic? ”
"He's gone to dig coal in the Tumbledown." Hermione said angrily.
Harry quickly explained that an hour earlier, he had pronounced "Diagon Alley" as "Tumbledown Alley" in front of the fireplace and ran to the Burgin store.
Ricardo nodded. The Silent Alley, where he had only gone yesterday, was a little more sensitive to this kind of aura.
"Actually, you can name those people," Ricardo said after a moment's thought, "and the people of Tumbledown Alley won't dare to touch a well-known person like you." ”
No, according to Dumbledore's attention to Harry last semester, as long as someone kidnaps Harry Potter in Tumbledown Alley, Dumbledore will definitely kill all the way from the east end of Tumbledown Alley to the west end, and he won't do it without blinking.
"Is that so......" Harry thought thoughtfully. Dare to love him and be a character? Dumbledore, my grandmother, my grandfather's kind?
"Of course!"
"You're Harry Potter!"
"Savior!"
"The future of the wizarding world!"
A pair of teasing twins patted Harry on the shoulder, smiling hippie.
They saw Ricardo again, reflexively shook their right hand, and then quickly bowed in greeting:
"Long time no see."
"Professor Silva."
"We."
"Brother Weasley."
"I miss it so much."
"We always have your teachings in mind."
"I haven't forgotten!"
"Merlin's beard," cried out the red-haired boy who used to follow Harry next to him last semester, in surprise, "Mommy! Come and see the wonders of the world! Fred and George were so polite! It seems that you beat lightly, they could have been better! ”
