Chapter 12 Rita in front of Madam Malkin's shop

"Oh~ let me see who these two are?"

Rita Skeeter, yelling in a high-pitched voice, seemed to want to express her shock, but in fact Rita just wanted to attract the attention of passers-by.

Did she know Nicole May's temper, this character who is comparable to an ancient fossil, in order to protect the Philosopher's Stone when he was young, turned the wizarding world upside down at that time.The number of wizards has thus been reduced by almost half.

Therefore, for your own safety, you will still attract more people's attention. It is safer to interview LeMay in this way.

No, this old man doesn't have anything worth digging, and a kid who can be called Ed is more valuable.

A handsome and cute little boy always makes people think about it, doesn't he?Rita couldn't help but narrow her eyes.

Maybe sacrifice yourself a bit and make some speeches that belong to him and yourself?
As if he didn't see Rita, Father Flamel pulled Ed to go in, and said in his mouth, "Ed, when did Diagon Alley become so crowded, it should be called the Ministry of Magic gang. The guys are dispatched, and the streets here are being expanded and repaired.

Otherwise, not even a bug can hide. "

Ed didn't understand Papa Flamel's words, because at this moment a huge force came from his arms, comparable to Grandma Perenelle, making it impossible for Ed to break free, let alone distract his thoughts.

"I think this is the famous Hope Boy, Ed T. Flamel!"

Ed was still wondering what Rita was talking about. The well-dressed lady grabbed Ed's arm and knelt down on one knee, not caring that her skirt was stained by the dust on the ground.

"Ma'am, you..."

"Click!"

The light released by the magnesium powder burning, like a monster with teeth and claws, made Ed narrow his eyes.At the same time, the bright light attracts the attention of pedestrians.

This is obviously caused by Rita's assistant using a magic camera.

"Dear Star of Hope, please accept Rita Skeeter's purest respect for you, and hope that you can bring a broader future to the magic world."

Not only in China, it is human nature to watch the excitement, just like migratory birds.

Rita is very cunning, her current actions are like a knight swearing an oath to the monarch, this behavior caused many passers-by to stop and watch, and people surrounded them circle after circle.

Especially for those Muggle families, the medieval clothes of the native wizards around them made them very curious about such ancient rituals.

They must have thought it was some kind of custom among wizards!
One of the children patted his father's head excitedly, and pointed at Ed and shouted: "Dad, Dad! Look, there is a female knight swearing an oath to a prince in front!"

The young father looked up at his son on his shoulder, then looked helplessly at the back of his head in front of him, and said, "Oh, I saw it too!"

After hearing the discussion from the surrounding people, Rita showed a satisfied smile.

The masses are always ignorant of the truth, as long as they mislead a little in the newspapers, no, this is not misleading, it is just artistic processing.

Papa Flamel has been watching Rita's show with cold eyes, but he didn't stop it.With the help of the Daily Prophet, Ed's name will be known to more people.

"Well, Rita Skeeter, I think you've got enough to write, but be careful, some things you can write about, and some you don't!"

Father Flamel's eyes showed the light of an eagle catching its prey.

This made Rita feel a chill in her heart, she couldn't help shivering, and quickly said in a low voice: "I see, respected great magician."

Hearing Rita's words, Papa LeMay ignored the people around him and dragged Ed into Mrs. Malkin's clothing store.

Ed looked back before entering the point, and he still had a feeling of enjoying the attention of everyone.

Noticing Ed's reluctance, Papa LeMay narrowed his eyes and smiled, and said, "Why, do you like the feeling of being noticed?"

According to Ed's previous behavior, Father Flamel was afraid that Ed would be like Newt Scamander, who didn't like crowds and had a weird personality, hiding in the deep mountains and old forests.

Now, though, it appears that the work of developing the Dark Lord, no, a new generation of leaders in the wizarding world is well on its way.

Entering the store, it is much more spacious than the street. It seems that Mrs. Mojin has asked someone to use the traceless extension spell.However, the degree of spaciousness is limited, just not crowded.

Mrs. Malkin, who had been waiting in the store for a long time, saw Le May and Ed coming in, and hurriedly stepped forward to welcome them in.

"Welcome you two, what style of clothes do you want today? I will do it myself." Mrs. Mojin had a smile on her face, and the two in front of her were the fathers of the gold masters.

This displeased a very slender lady in the store in a silver and white dress with sparkling crystals hanging from her clothes and a ring of round pearls around her neck.

She said to the clerk who was measuring her daughter: "Why can they be received by the store manager? We can't!"

"Who?"

The clerk looked impatiently at the lady behind her. This Muggle lady was really annoying, always making unreasonable demands.

"them!"

The lady stretched out her slender white hand, pointing at Ed and Flamel.

The clerk looked at his fingers, rolled his eyes, and said impatiently: "Mr. LeMay almost owns the shares of all the shops in Diagon Alley. If you can do it, I think Madam will be very happy to receive you alone."

Papa Flamel felt that he was being pointed at, and turned his head slightly to look.Finding that it was just a Muggle woman, she looked away and followed Madam Malkin to her private workshop.Here, let Ed escape from the crowd.

"Is it just the two of you?" After arriving, Mrs. Malkin stood on tiptoe and looked back, asking tentatively, "Didn't Mrs. LeMay come?"

"Grandma didn't come."

Ed and Mrs. Malkin were also familiar with each other, so they answered easily.

It can be seen that after hearing Ed's answer, Mrs. Malkin showed a trace of regret on her face.

Although it is easy to sell clothes to men, there is no way to sell other clothes to them.Rather than selling at a high price, Mrs. Mojin still wanted to sell a few more clothes.

"Do it for Ed according to the above." Father Le May handed the notice to Mrs. Malkin, then thought about it, and said to Ed: "I'm going to buy some magic materials. I'll meet you at the Wand Shop."

"Okay, Dad." Ed raised his arm skillfully, letting the magic ruler floating in the air measure the length of his arm.

"Oh, Ed, you have grown two centimeters taller." Mrs. Malkin looked at the measured size and said to Ed.

In fact, Ed doesn't need to measure the size at all, because Ed came here half a month ago.

However, it is something every store manager is happy to let a customer, especially a big customer, stay in the store for a while.

Afterwards, Madam Malkin, who was holding the notice, deliberately tapped her head with the scissors, and said annoyedly, "I really didn't expect that Hogwarts would recruit so many new students this year, and the black cloth is almost running out."

"Then use white."

Ed didn't even think about it, so he spoke.It's just clothes, does color matter?A child's world is either black or white.

Mrs. Malkin heard Ed's words, smiled and said: "That's not acceptable, child, it is required to use black.

What do I think about using a more advanced fabric?A magic cloth native to the southern border of America, which is super resistant to magic.The toughness is also good, there is no way for muggle-like bullets to penetrate. "

"Then you can figure it out."

Ed agreed. Anyway, Papa Flamel is not short of money, so he has to choose the right things for use.
