Chapter 149: Preparing for the start of school!
Dumbledore smiled and said goodbye to the Director and Fudge.
"Harry, let's go. ”
"Well, that's the end of it, I don't have to be dragged to the fabled ninth-tier criminal court? ”
Fudge's eyes seemed to wander farther away.
Harry thought to himself, "Hehe, you really have this plan. ”
Dumbledore didn't know if he noticed it, but the smile on his face didn't diminish at all, and he said, "Of course not, it's the place where criminals are judged." ”
"I'd like to stay here a lot, but it's good to work here in the future. ”
A sneer came out unabashedly.
Harry turned his head to notice the woman next to Fudge.
Then he immediately turned his head and bent down: "Mouth area ~ mouth soil ~"
The woman looked at Harry with a frightened look, her face flushed and turned white.
She looked like a big pale toad. Short and fat, with a wide, loose-skinned face, like Harry's uncle, his neck invisible, and a large mouth drooping downward. Her eyes were large, round, and slightly bulging outward.
With her such an old and ugly appearance, she was still wearing a girl's pink suit, and her face was covered with thick white powder.
Such a shameless woman, Harry has only seen two, Luo Yufeng and Simon have no hatred.
Harry is not shy about showing malice to such people.
"Professor, who is this grandmother?"
Forgive Harry, he was just a kid, sometimes he was direct, but he was most sincere.
"Oh, oh, this ...... It was Senior Deputy Secretary Dolores Jane Umbridge. Dumbledore lowered his head slightly, hiding a smile.
Ugly Umbridge's face is a little distorted, but she's a quality wizard.
A smile came to her face again, forcing a smile on her face.
She said to Harry, "Mr. Potter, this is the Department of Magical Ordinance Enforcement, one of the most powerful places in the UK, and I hope you will pay enough respect. ”
Harry didn't look at her at all, but deliberately absentmindedly responded: "Well, you're right, you're right. ”
Umbridge was distorted by Harry's angry face.
Harry looked up and asked, "Headmaster, can we go, my stomach is still hungry." ”
"Absolutely, we can leave at any time. Dumbledore laughed.
He said goodbye to Amine Boras and Fudge Connelly, and took Harry out of the room.
"Miss Umbridge, whom you call Grandma, must not be in a very happy mood, but she always thought she was still eighteen years old. ”
"I'm just telling the truth. Harry looked sincere.
............
In another month, Harry was about to start school.
He is now a prospective sophomore.
Prior to this, his Leaky Cauldron Bar was successfully upgraded and opened for business.
All the Muggles he had signed a contract with before had been brought here by him.
Ordinary people suddenly entered the wizarding world, and saw strange and mysterious wizards, what impact would be done to these Muggles, Harry had no heart to guess.
For these Muggles, the pact with mystical powers could never be broken, and they had to honestly abide by Harry's demands on them, such as never revealing anything about wizards to the Muggle world, and not passing through the walls of the backyard......
Although they panicked at first, they would not quit and leave.
Because their wages here are several times higher than those outside.
What's more, this is where their ordinary lives are no longer ordinary, and this is a mysterious magical world.
The reopening of the Leaky Cauldron Bar is a new beginning.
As for what its guests would think of it, good or bad, Good Harry didn't think much of it.
He did this just because he thought about it, maybe it would bring a different feeling to the wizarding world, and by the way, he would see if he could earn himself some Galleons. With this in mind, Harry was a little "bored" to think about the "culture" of Muggles.
......
He received two letters, one from Hogwarts and one from Hermione.
Hermione informed him that he would be coming to London next Wednesday to go to Diagon Alley to buy books for the new term, and invited him to come along.
Harry still remembers the second semester of the first year, he seemed to be a little subtle with Hermione and Zhang Qiu, but now Hermione seems to have forgotten selectively, opened a new page, and retained the side of the two people who had a very good relationship.
Is this the legendary adolescent syndrome?
Harry thought as he opened the envelope from the school:
Second-graders read:
Standard Spells, Level 2, by Miranda Goshawk
"Breaking with a Female Ghost", by Gilderoy Lockhart
Travelling with Ghouls, by Gilderoy Lockhart
Vacation with the Dominatrix, by Gilderoy Lockhart
Walking with Trolls, by Gilderoy Lockhart
Traveling on a Boat with a Vampire, by Gilderoy Lockhart
Wandering with Werewolves, by Gilderoy Lockhart
A Year with the Tibetan Yeti, by Gilderoy Lockhart.
Tsk, I didn't expect the school to invite that liar teacher, and I can't do anything but laugh.
At this point, it is estimated that except for Harry, who knew that their Defence Against the Dark Arts class was Gilderoy Lockhart, the other students must still be confused, thinking that their teacher worships Lockhart.
......
It's been a few days since the Leaky Cauldron Bar opened, and so far, it's not bad?
The chefs, waiters, and managers who were abducted by Harry and Meng have slowly accepted it from the initial horror, and may become accustomed to it in the future.
Humans really can survive anywhere, Harry did worry that Muggles wouldn't be able to work here with peace of mind, but he soon realized that his worries were unnecessary, and now those beautiful British front girls dared to flirt with wizards.
When the appointed time came, Harry sat in the Muggle Cafe next to the Broken Axe Bar, and many wizards walked into the Broken Axe Bar and disappeared, but no wizard saw Harry sitting by the glass window.
Hermione came into view, she glanced around, a smile on her face, and ran towards Harry, her long brown hair fluttering.
I haven't seen her for two months, and I feel like Hermione has grown a lot.
When Hermione saw the Broken Axe Bar, she was dumbfounded.
"Leaky Cauldron Bar, how did it become like this, isn't it small and old. Looking up at the tall building, Hermione was amazed by the huge difference between the front and back, especially its change, Muggle traces could be seen everywhere, compared to the old wizarding building, it was really eye-catching.
Hermione and Harry walked through the magic wall that they had entered Diagon Alley, and the crowded and narrow path suddenly appeared in front of them, and various voices rang out in their ears.
They looked at the dizzying window exhibitions all the way and walked forward.
Influenced by Harry's "KFC", Diagon Alley has many more Muggle-specific shops, and although these wizards are old-fashioned, they are not stupid, and they will not get along with money.
Most of the new shops are related to food, firstly because of Harry's Castle, and secondly, because wizard-related magical items are not so easy to innovate.
Affected by this, the business of the Magic Castle store in Diagon Alley has deteriorated, but it is still the most popular store in Diagon Alley.
Harry didn't care about the business being affected, as he didn't intend to be a man who pursued Garon. It was also because the merchants of other shops did not yet have the concept of chains, and Harry only needed to use a little Muggle wisdom to not worry about these small profits, and a steady stream of Galleons was at his fingertips.
Harry and Hermione were happy as they ate brioche bread they bought from a cake shop.
"The brioche bread is delicious. Hermione said with her eyes closed.
The two laughed all the way to Gringotts, where after showing his identity token, Harry got enough Galleons for this year, including tuition, books, uniforms, etc.
It is worth mentioning that Harry's vault has become a normal vault, and it is no longer the vault deep underground in Gringotts, because Garon has been emptied by him.
Harry saw a group of people walking out of a scrap shop, it was a parent with four children, the youngest daughter holding the crucible she had just bought with an ear broken, the pot containing second-hand textbooks, with her head down, hurrying away, looking afraid of being recognized by someone familiar.
What this family has in common is that they both have fiery red hair.
That's what Ron's family is.
Harry glanced at the dark alleys of Diagon Alley that led to an unknown place, and chuckled inwardly: Lucius should be on the scene.
"Let's go a little slower. Harry said
"Huh?" Hermione asked.
"Oh, there's a Quidditch shop here, and I heard there's the latest Halo 2001, so let's go in and check it out. Harry's eyes lit up and he walked in with excitement on his face
"Huh. Hermione sneered.
