Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 2 "The Book of Potter"

There is only one place in the wizarding world where you can buy everything, and that is Diagon Alley, but they usually have to stop at the Leaky Cauldron to get to Diagon Alley.

"The Leaky Cauldron."

Mo Lin grabbed a handful of Floo powder and sprinkled it into the flames. The emerald green flames enveloped Mo Lin and made him spin around for a while. By the time he came back to his senses, he had already arrived at a noisy bar.

Maureen didn't like to floo on the road, and every time he came out of the fireplace after a floo trip, he would be disgraced and choked.

He spit out a mouthful of cinders, flicked the soot off his body, and stumbled to follow Grandpa toward the counter.There were all kinds of wizards in the bar, and some sneaky old witches gathered together to discuss something secretly, their eyes looked particularly vigilant.There were also three masked male wizards in the corner, pointing around a blueprint on the table.

The wizards at the Leaky Cauldron Bar are people from all over the world. There are all kinds of people. Maureen doesn't care. He walked around a wizard wearing a dragon leather jacket and followed the pace of his grandfather.

"Hey, Alton, are you free to come here today?" A middle-aged wizard stood up and said hello, looking very enthusiastic.

Maureen knew this middle-aged wizard, named Edmund, who was an employee of the Misuse of Muggle Items Department. He used to be Alton's subordinate, and he often asked Alton for help when he couldn't solve difficult spells.

Alton pointed to Mo Lin and said, "Yes! Bring Mo Lin to buy school supplies."

"Molin is going to school too, how fast!" Edmund smiled and nodded at Molin.

Maureen also greeted, and then Edmund said: "By the way, Alton, I recently confiscated a batch of Muggle mobile phones, and someone cast a prank spell. Once I play a certain game, the Muggles will be trapped." In the game, you can only get out after breaking through the level, which frightened a group of Muggles, unfortunately we haven't thought of breaking the spell yet, can you help me find out?"

Alton nodded. He was an expert at breaking spells. He said, "Maureen, wait a moment. I'll show Edmund this spell."

Maureen was wandering around the Leaky Cauldron bar boredly. He saw a copy of the Daily Prophet on the table next to him, so he took it and read it.The headline of the Daily Prophet was the news on August 8 about someone breaking into the Department of Mysteries of the Ministry of Magic. It was a press conference held by Mitheus, the head of the Department of Mysteries, to clarify the fact that the time converter does not exist.

Mo Lin opened the other side of the Daily Prophet, and he saw the advertisement section of "Gluttony Witch" in Diagon Alley. The Gluttony Witch is a well-known wizard restaurant, famous for its unique taste.The slogan above is: "There are only meals that you can't think of, and there is no taste that I can't make."

The accompanying picture is a charcoal-grilled Javanese fish. The Daily Prophet is a color version. The photo of the charcoal-grilled Javanese fish is very clear. It is still red and slightly smoking. It should be taken when it was just out of the oven.There is also a line of small words under the picture: "Click the picture to smell the taste, slide the picture to enjoy more delicacies."

"Strange, can you still cast magic like this?"

Molin clicked on the picture curiously, and then the scent on the picture spilled out and penetrated into Mo Lin's nostrils. The scent seemed to be a mixture of cheese and roast goose, mixed with cumin, which was very unique and made Mo Lin Lin felt himself there.

He swiped the picture, and the picture turned into a plate of golden and oily stir-fried dragon liver. The aroma of the rice was wafting, and Mo Lin couldn't help swallowing.It is now the 21st century, Muggle technology is getting more and more advanced, wizard magic is also advancing with the times, many magic researchers have also developed more practical magic, and food pictures that can radiate flavor are undoubtedly the most successful in recent years of a magic.

Maureen turned around the menu and smelled all the dishes. He suddenly felt a little hungry. He saw that his grandfather was still holding a magic wand to help Edmund attack an iPhone that had been cast with a mischievous spell. I muttered in my heart, took the Daily Prophet and ran to my grandfather and said, "Grandpa, I'm hungry, can I eat fried dragon liver? By the way, buy a box of licorice ice cream."

He showed Alton the advertisement picture of "Gluttonous Witch". Alton frowned and said, "Eliminate and seal". The screen phone is silent.On the screen is a Super Mario game, in which Mario is laughing at Alton's magic, and also issued a line: You can't do anything to me.

Alton was so angry that he cursed an ugly word.

Alton obviously got angry, and vowed not to give up until the evil curse was lifted. He took out ten silver Sickles to Mo Lin, and said, "Then don't run around after you finish eating. I'll find you there later."

Mo Lin took the money and happily ran towards the back of the Leaky Cauldron, came to the trash can in the backyard, stepped on the trash can, counted three yuan up and two yuan down, then stretched out his hand and pressed the brick, the brick It shook a bit, and began to move towards the sides as if rolling, forming an archway.

Maureen jumped off the trash can, walked through the archway, and came to the bustling Diagon Alley.

Diagon Alley sells all kinds of wizarding supplies, and there are various sales sounds one after another. Next to it is an ice cream shop, which is surrounded by many children at this time.The licorice-flavored ice cream is the most popular, and there are six flavors of ice cream, each bite has a different flavor, a total of six flavors, but the price is a bit expensive.

Although it is not the first time for Maureen to come to Diagon Alley, every time he comes here there is a sense of freshness.He likes things in the wizarding world, unlike where he lives, which is in Muggle territory, subject to various restrictions.

He passed through the shop selling magic cauldrons, squeezed past the somewhat noisy magic pet shop, and ran towards the address advertised by "Gluttonous Witch" in the Daily Prophet.But when he came to the door of the "Greedy Witch" restaurant, he found that there was a long queue of wizard customers at the door of the "Gluttony Witch", and they all lined up on the street, and the business was very hot.

"This will have to wait until the Year of the Monkey!"

Mo Lin was a little disappointed, the ten silver Sickles in his pocket rattled, begging him to spend them quickly.He thought for a while, then turned around and saw the largest store on the street, Weasley's Wizard Wheezes!

This shop is well-known in Diagon Alley. It is full of strange and weird magical gadgets, many of which are used to prank people, and are very popular among young wizards.Last time Mo Lin secretly bought a stealth smoke bomb, which made the house a mess, and was almost caught by his grandfather and beat him up.

Alton often said that Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes should be looked up more, this is the place where Muggle items are most likely to be abused.But Arthur Weasley, the father of the two founders of Weasley's Wizarding Wheezes, is also an official of the Ministry of Magic's Prohibition of Misuse of Muggle Artifacts. He has worked with Alton for many years and is an old partner, so Alton is just Talk about it, but actually turn a blind eye.

The promotional poster almost covered half of the store. On it was their new magical product: "Book of Potter", followed by a line of introduction:
——This book focuses on the scene of how Harry Potter defeated Voldemort. The author, George Weasley, spent ten years researching patented magic, using Potter's memory as a prototype, and engraved the memory on the book with magic. Restore the scene at that time in the form of dreams, buy books, and follow Potter to fight Voldemort together!

The shocking price of the new book: only 99 Galleons!

-

Next to it are huge posters of Harry Potter himself and George Weasley. Potter doesn't seem very happy, and smiles reluctantly, as if he was forced by George to agree to promote the new book, but George Generous and decent, with fiery red hair that seemed to be burning, he was handsome and unrestrained.

Even though Voldemort has been dead for 21 years, the name Harry Potter is still a household name and the savior in the minds of many wizards. Killing Voldemort to save the wizarding world is a feat.

After Voldemort's death, wizards can finally call him by his first name openly, but the older generation of wizards still habitually call Voldemort the "mysterious man". For the older generation of wizards, Voldemort's reputation is too terrifying.

Maureen squeezed into the store, he couldn't wait to see "The Book of Potter".It's a pity that he couldn't afford this book, seventeen Sickles was one Galleon, he only had ten Silver Sickles, and "The Book of Potter" cost 99 Galleons, which was too expensive.
