Hogwarts Ordnance Manual
Chapter 8 The earth is so beautiful
After hearing about Dudley's "glorious deeds", the jaws of the Harry trio almost dropped to the ground, and George and Fred also became instantly interested.
Originally, Hermione and the Weasley family had heard about Dudley. They heard that he was irritable, rude, mean, and often bullied Harry. They often complained about Harry, so they came up with the scene of speeding to save people. But when we met today, Dudley seemed not as unbearable as he had imagined. The most important thing was that he was not a Muggle.
Dudley smiled slightly, spread his hands openly and said: "Fate is unpredictable, cousin Harry, although we were not so... harmonious when we were young, after all, I actually envy you very much, even a little jealous. Which child doesn't want to become a wizard?... Anyway, I'm sorry and I hope we can become friends again." He said and extended his right hand.
Seeing Dudley's "sincere" eyes, Harry's kind little heart suddenly "melted".Although Harry hated what Dudley had done, he still had feelings for this cousin who was only five weeks older than him. Otherwise, he would not have saved Dudley from the Dementors later in the book. This kind of " During the childhood, as long as he received a sincere apology, Harry was willing to laugh away his grudges.
Seeing Harry and Dudley gently shaking hands, the Weasley brothers burst into cheers.
"What are you arguing about?" A woman with messy hair and a beautiful little girl squeezed over, holding a large dinner plate filled with food.
Dudley knew that distance creates beauty, and he did not forcefully integrate into the Weasley family. He said goodbye to everyone at the right time, and refused Mrs. Weasley's warm hospitality. The future is long.Besides, Dudley knew that they were going to Flourish and Blotts Bookstore later and would have a bloody meeting with the new teacher Lockhart, and Dudley didn't want to be involved in it.
The admission notice clearly states what freshmen must prepare for. Although Dudley is older than Harry, he has no choice but to start from the first grade. Otherwise, Dudley will not be able to learn some basic spells, ancient texts, etc. There will be no way to start.
He needs to buy a wand, a cloak, a quill, a first grade textbook... a lot of things, and he can also bring a pet - an owl, a mouse or a toad.
But Dudley didn't care about these. He followed the wizards coming and going into Diagon Alley (after all, his 1 point of magic power couldn't cast any spells, and he didn't have a wand). He turned a blind eye to the crowds and walked quickly towards the place in his heart. "Holy Place" - Quidditch Boutique.
Soaring in the air is the eternal yearning in the human heart, from the Kingdom of Qihu recorded in the Eastern Book of Mountains and Seas, to the deeds of the Persian king recorded in the ancient Persian document "Kings", from Plato's friend Alcutas to the British King Lear Braddou's father, everyone is crazy about flying.Dudley was no exception.
Dudley had a small regret in his previous life. Because of his outstanding record in assault missions, he was kept in the special operations group instead of becoming a fighter pilot. Now that he has traveled through time and become a wizard, nothing can stop him from becoming a Quidditch player. ...except being poor.
"Wtf! A Nimbus 2001 costs 1200 Galleons?!" Dudley exclaimed when he saw the flying broom with silver pedals and black handle in the window. He knew that this thing was very expensive, but he didn't expect it. It’s so expensive! With a purchasing power of 1200 galleons, one can buy a small apartment in London.
Dudley's family was considered to be upper-middle class, and they almost doted on Dudley. They spent a lot of money on him, but they would never give him the money and allowance for a house. Dudley's heart sank when he looked at the 400 Galleons in his pocket.
The clerk at the Quidditch boutique could tell at a glance that Dudley had no financial resources, so he didn't bother to talk to him. After all, only famous sports teams or big families would actually spend money to purchase new broomsticks every year. In front of the boutique The children and Quidditch enthusiasts who watch the excitement every day are not potential customers for the display products at all to the store clerks, but they need these "trailers" to maintain the popularity of the products.
Nimbus 2001 was no longer available, so Dudley had no choice but to go into the store and see if he could buy an older broom.
New models are on the market. Last year, the price of the highly anticipated Nimbus 2000 was reduced to 980 Galleons, while the price of the Nimbus 1700 was 750 Galleons.
Dudley shook his head helplessly. Even if he rode the Nimbus 1700, he would not be able to defeat Harry, the son of the plane. He would even be beaten to death by Malfoy. After all, Lucius Malfoy wanted his son to become Slytherin. Players, this year they spent a lot of money to equip the entire Slytherin team with Nimbus 2001.
There are many brands of flying broomsticks, and the more cost-effective ones are the "Sweep" and "Comet" series, but they cannot compete with the Light Wheel series in terms of speed and turning performance.
Dudley walked around in a circle, and the more he looked, the more disappointed he became. The most he could buy was an outdated Sweep Six Star, or a Comet 260, which could only be said to be better than the public broomsticks provided in Hogwarts flying lessons, and went to the competition field. It can only be embarrassing.
But he couldn't use a broken pistol to rob Gringotts at the three-way intersection, right?He and Harry had just reconciled. Could it be that he went to borrow money from his cousin at this time?
The clerk who introduced the products in the store had lost his patience and left Dudley to dry. At this moment, the store door was pushed open and a girl walked in surrounded by the butler and maid.
"Miss Yan! You're here!" The clerks in the store cheered up and greeted her.
This is a Chinese girl, no more than 14 years old, but tall and elegant. She wears a slim-fitting silk robe covered with fine dark lines. Her waist-length black hair is like a waterfall made of silk, and her facial features are even more exquisite. It was so exquisite that even Dudley, who was used to seeing beautiful women, sincerely admired it.
The girl's appearance instantly became the focus of the audience, and other customers choosing products deliberately kept a distance apart, except for Dudley, who stood stupidly in front of the Nimbus counter.
The old man in butler's clothes walked up to Dudley, wrinkled his face, smiled mechanically, and asked in standard broadcasting English: "Sir, have you selected the products?"
His look was meaningful, and what Dudley read from it was: Boy, if you don't want to buy it, just stay out of the way, a good dog won't get in the way!
"Uncle Zheng, there's no need to disturb others... I'm just here to repair the broom..." Miss Yan said behind the housekeeper. She glanced at the maid behind her, and the maid immediately took out a black-handled Nimbus 2001, but with a black handle on it. Decorated with a majestic oriental dragon.
The clerk quickly took it and asked the girl's needs carefully, while the butler kept staring at Dudley, as if determined to force him to move away.
"Ah!" Suddenly, Miss Yan exclaimed, pushed away the old housekeeper and rushed to Dudley, shouting: "You are Dudley! Dudley Dursley!"
Dudley was stunned on the spot, pointed at himself and said, "Are you talking to me? Am I so famous?" The last time he was greeted by such a beautiful girl was in his previous life.
Miss Yan grabbed Dudley's hand and said with a rather excited expression: "I saw your photo when the British Ministry of Magic found me to sign the closing documents!"
Feeling Miss Yan's soft and delicate hands and smelling the faint scent of cornflowers on her body at close range, Dudley was a little intoxicated: The earth is so beautiful!
In the discounted goods counter nearby, a pile of cornflower flying brooms indicates that it smells like me, okay?
