Harry Potter's Catastrophe

The time soon came to next Wednesday, and the Weasley family got up early.

After washing and getting dressed, I ate breakfast in a hurry and waited in front of the fireplace.

Mrs. Weasley took out a flowerpot, but there were no flowers or soil in it. Inside the flowerpot was a small half pot of gray-white sparkling powder.

"Come, guests come first!" Mrs. Weasley handed the flower pot to Harry and Carney, "Which one of you comes first?"

"I haven't used it before, what should I do?" Harry was a little confused, looked at Carney, and said to Mrs. Weasley.

"Oh, I remembered that Harry hadn't used it, I forgot to mention it." Ron suddenly remembered, "Sorry."

"Never used it? How did you go to Diagon Alley to buy utensils and school supplies last year?" Mr. Weasley asked curiously. He was very interested in things invented by Muggles.

"Take the subway and arrive at the Broken Ax Bar..." Harry said.

"I know, let me try it first." Carney pinched a handful of sparkling powder and threw it towards the fireplace. The red flame in the fireplace immediately rose into a green flame that was taller than a person.

"Diagon Alley!" Carney walked in, shouted, and disappeared in a flash.

"Yes, that's it. Be clear when you say the location." Mrs. Weasley said.

"Kani seemed to have forgotten to close his eyes just now." George said.

"Yes, I seemed to see the shock in his eyes." Fred said.

"I hope he won't fall..."

Carney entered the green flame. The flame did not have much temperature. He quickly said the name of the place and was spun and taken off. He forgot to close his eyes.

My eyes suddenly blurred, and as soon as I closed my eyes, I felt my feet hit the ground, and I fell out of the fireplace.

It took a while for my eyes to adjust. The people coming and going around him must be Diagon Alley. There were a row of fireplaces on the left and right beside him. Anyone who used the fireplace to get to Diagon Alley would land here.

"Kani, how are you? You didn't fall, did you?" Fred came out and saw Carney beside him.

"It's not a big problem." The second person who came out was not Harry. He probably went to somewhere.

"Where's Harry?" George followed, then Percy, Ginny, and the Weasleys.

"I didn't see it," Carney said.

"I just said that his reading was a bit irregular. Let's look for it." Mr. Weasley said.

"I'm going to Gringotts to get some money. I may not have enough to buy books." Carney was going to look around. He didn't go shopping properly last time.

"Be safe!" Mrs. Weasley said, "I'll take Ginny to buy a wand. You go look around for Harry. We'll meet at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore at eight o'clock." We agreed with Hermione that we would meet at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore. gather.

The Weasley family moved separately. They knew this place better than Carney, and Carney didn't want to wander around. It would be troublesome if he got lost.

"Sir, how can I help you?" the elf of Gringotts said.

"Safe No. 9527, Carney Strand, take one hundred gold galleons." Carney handed over the key to the safe.

"Okay." The goblin took the key and checked his identity.

"Mr. Strang, your gold galleons." After a while, the goblin took out a bag of gold galleons from the backstage and handed it to Carney along with the key.

"Kani!"

Carney was stopped just after leaving Gringotts.

"Xisha?" Carney looked at the voice and saw a girl with long fiery red hair, it was Xisha.

There's another one standing next to him, Shanks!

No, it's Sisa's father.

"What a coincidence. I meet you here. Are you here to buy books today?"

"Hello, uncle." Xisha's father really looks like him, especially the right red hair, cold temperament, and sad beard. It's like a real-life cosplay. There is no sense of disobedience at all in a black uniform. , but there are no scratch marks on the eyes.

Now you can't find any knife marks or scratches on the wizard's body. Magic can handle everything, except of course special black magic, such as the one on Harry's head.

"Hello." Shanksk didn't like to smile like Xisha, but he liked to observe more.

Why, because he has been staring at Carney from the beginning, and unlike other elders who can say some polite words, he will say hello and then be gone.

"See you at the beginning of school!" Xisha said with a smile, not feeling the embarrassment in the atmosphere at all.

"See you at the beginning of school!" After saying that, she pulled Shanks away who was looking at him.

"There is still some time until eight o'clock." I got up too early, but there are still many people in Diagon Alley, many of whom are wearing Hogwarts wizard robes.

Carney put most of the gold coins into the pendant box, put a small part in his pocket and walked around. The road in the center was wider, and there were shops with beautifully decorated facades.

Although Carney has a small amount of money, it is still difficult to spend money here. Most of them are some institutions, Seer Japan, some auxiliary buildings of the Ministry of Magic, auction houses, the Alchemist Association, etc., Ollivander's Wand Shop and Broomstick Shop Stores like this have to be lined up outside.

Stores such as Flourish and Blotts Bookstore, Madam Malkin's Robe Store, and the School Supplies Department Store have to be further down the list. These are cooperating with Hogwarts, so most of the products they produce and purchase are matched with Hogwarts requirements.

As we walked outside, the streets gradually became smaller, and there were some small toys and snacks bought from carts on the roadside. They were the most attractive to little wizards and the prices were cheap.

Magic pet shop, exotic toy shop, magic creature handicraft shop, Enchanted, Syme's Herbal Shop, all have department stores, dragon restaurant...

There are really all kinds of stores along the way, especially the Enchanted store. There are several wet nurses posted at the door. They really don't look at any evil.

On the way, I inevitably bump into classmates I know, and they all greet me with a smile. There really is nothing to talk about, and I am not a talkative person.

Carney himself didn't know what to buy. He was looking for something similar to an antique store, where the store owner didn't even know what the item was and then sold it. You might buy good stuff or it might be junk.

Of course Carney is not afraid of being deceived if he knows the magic eye. An's routine is normal. He should have found that kind of store by now, and then found a treasure or something.

But there wasn't even that kind of stall on the street. After shopping for a while, I still couldn't find it. Due to time constraints, I had to turn back and go to Flourish and Blotts Bookstore.

There weren't many people in Flourish and Blotts Bookstore when I first arrived, but now it's full of people, mostly young witches and wizards, and quite a few like Mrs. Weasley.

It seems that Gilderoy Harlot's whereabouts have been exposed, and he should have exposed it himself.

Because there is a banner hanging on the second floor of the bookstore, Gilderoy Lockhart's autobiography "Magical Me" is on sale for autographs, today from 12:30 to 4:30 pm.

In order not to affect the normal purchase of the little wizards, stalls are being set up outside the door, otherwise it is uncertain when they will be able to squeeze in and buy.

"Carney! This way!" George called to him as they waited by the bookstore.

"Have you seen Harry?" Fred was there too.

"without."

"It's unbelievable that you let Harry get lost!" Hermione had already arrived, with the Weasley family, followed by her parents.

Hermione was chatting with Ron and the others, and his parents were talking with Mrs. Weasley.

"Harry won't get lost if he asks for directions." Carney said calmly.

"We searched all over for places with the same name as Diagon Alley," George said.

"Maybe it's a private chimney of a certain store." Carney remembered that Harry went directly to a dark store.

"Carney, you don't look in a hurry at all." Hermione said angrily.

"Harry may have used floo powder and fell into a private fireplace in a certain store. He came out and found himself lost, then met Hagrid and finally returned safely." Carney said, "After listening to this, you feel less anxious. "

"Hagrid?" The Weasley family lined up outside Flourish and Blotts Bookstore. Mr. Weasley was looking for Harry in several nearby streets. He didn't know where Harry had gone, but he saw Hagrid's huge body.

"Arthur!" Hagrid appeared just then, coming from the street behind them. His huge size was particularly conspicuous, and he was striding towards them, holding an iron bucket in his hand, followed by Harry, who was covered in gray.

"Hagrid, long time no see!" Mr. Weasley greeted Hagrid when he saw that Harry was okay, and Harry was picked up by Mrs. Weasley.

"The Dursleys' Muggles are so abominable. If I didn't live in Hogwarts, I would have taken Harry to live somewhere else." Hagrid knew that Harry was now living at the Weasley family. Also found out why Harry didn't reply to his letter.

"Where did you find Harry? We were all looking for him for a while."

"Knockturn Alley." Hagrid said angrily, "What a careless person."

"By the way, what did you buy?"

"A medicine to repel carnivorous slugs. They have almost eaten all the cabbages I grew at school. Speaking of which, I have to go. See you next time. Harry! See you at Hogwarts!" Hagrid called Harry. After saying hello, he took the bucket and walked away in a hurry.

"Harry!" Mrs. Weasley had already cleaned up the dust on Harry's body. "I thought something had happened to you. Knockturn Alley is not a good place. Fortunately, you met Hagrid."

"It's okay, thanks to Hagrid." Harry seemed fine.

"Harry, you went to Knockturn Alley?" Ron said enviously.

"We haven't been to that place yet, mother won't let us go," George said.

"Yeah, maybe we'll find it then," Fred said.

"That place is not a place for decent wizards to go." Mrs. Weasley said seriously.

"Harry, tell us something," George said. “Your amazing Knockturn Alley experience.”
