A Wizard's Survival Guide to the 20th Century

After completing the formalities, the principal of Stanford asked a teacher to take them to get acquainted with the huge school.

While visiting, Levi sighed, the school that costs 100 Philippine dollars this semester is different, the facilities are not complete, it is simply luxurious!

The school still uses a class system, but there are only 16 people in each class, and the classrooms are not fixed. Each class must go to the corresponding classroom.

When Levi and Charlie visited, it was still class time. They saw that most of the classrooms here were lecture halls, not the kind of lecture halls where people were fooling around. They could ensure that every student could see the blackboard clearly.

The tables on each floor are not so crowded as the anti-human design of Levi's previous life that you can't sit in them. On the contrary, the width can even be adjusted by yourself, which is very user-friendly.

Unlike most other schools, Harker Middle School has school uniforms, but they only provide styles. You need to pay for them yourself, or you can buy them at a specialty store not far away.

The school uniform is a dark blue tweed Ulster coat with a detachable cloak and hood, which is unique in the United States' generally simple dressing style.

Yes, the kind that Sherlock Holmes often wears.

There are many students playing ball on the sports lawn, especially rugby. The United States holds a huge high school football league every year - unfortunately not Quidditch, but the winning team is still considered the school's hero.

But... Levi turned his head and looked at Charlie. Now he finally discovered a shortcoming of this genius, and that was his physique.

Charlie is very thin, about 1.4 meters tall. He is not a good athlete at all. He is a typical American bullied nerd.

Charlie noticed that he was looking at him and asked doubtfully: "What's the matter, sir?"

"No, it's nothing." Levi said subconsciously, and then suddenly remembered something.

"How do you know that in that parallelogram question, the diagonal side is not the real hypotenuse?" Levi asked curiously

"Hmm..." Charlie paused for a while, obviously trying to organize his words, and then slowly said after a moment, "From one height to another, the diagonal line is shorter than the straight line. This is an obvious mistake. "

College student Levi nodded in shame, damn, why didn't he think of this?

After walking around the school, the teacher sent them to the school gate. After Levi thanked them, he and Charlie temporarily left the school.

Today is Friday, and the school will be on vacation at two o'clock in the afternoon. There are many cars parked and waiting at the school gate. In this era, only the rich can afford to drive, and poorer students need to take the city tram. .

Lao Li looked at this familiar scene and felt a little complicated.

There were not only private cars waiting here, but also many taxis waiting to pick up business, and Levi easily found one.

After getting in the car, Levi asked the driver to take them to a famous department store nearby.

"Let's go buy school uniforms, school bags, and stationery." Li Wei said, "There are also some other things."

"You mean..." Charlie was about to speak when he suddenly remembered that there was a stranger driver sitting in front of him.

He turned to whisper: "You mean the things you use to make those magical props?"

"Yes..." Levi said, but then he suddenly realized something was wrong.

Being curious about the wizarding world is a very, very dangerous thing. The more you understand and yearn for this world, the more likely you are to become a wizard - this is what he learned from other people in the group in the past two days. Knowledge.

If Charlie were just an ordinary person, he would have no value to the wizarding world. Even if he knew the existence of this world, no one would be bored enough to murder a child as long as he didn't mind his own business.

But once he becomes a wizard, even if he is only E-level, he becomes "food" that can be considered.

"Don't care too much about my witchcraft. This is for your own good, understand?" Levi said quietly but seriously.

"You should know how dangerous the wizarding world is. This is not King Arthur's legend or Shakespeare's The Tempest. I almost died on the dock last time."

He pressed Charlie's shoulders, stared at the opposite side and said: "You have to remember that the agreement between us is that I will give you a lot of money and you will return my smart brain. You becoming a wizard is dangerous to us. At least. Nothing can happen to you until...you get admitted to the Ivy League."

Charlie nodded quickly, saying that he must remember that if you think more, you will make more mistakes, if you think less, you will make fewer mistakes, and if you think less, it will be better.

"Okay, let's turn our attention back to shopping. You have to choose a schoolbag that suits you..."

……

The taxi stopped near the department store. This is one of the business districts of St. Francis. It has a layout of rural areas surrounding the city. Simply put, it is a group of small vendors surrounding the streets near the department store.

This scene reminded Levi of the old shopping malls in his hometown, such as the Reputation Building, which had the same layout.

After passing the vendors on the outermost floor, the two entered the building. It was like an early version of Wanda or RT-Mart, with baskets inside for customers to choose products.

"Get your school bag, get your stationery, get your drafts and homework books, get the daily necessities I bought for you, and my materials..."

Half an hour later, two people carrying several baskets lined up in front of the checkout counter.

In fact, it is possible to steal directly using space, but Levi feels that this is unethical and unprofessional. After all, he is now a policeman in a broad sense. Secondly, showing witchcraft in such a ostentatious manner may attract malicious looks. Lao Li doesn’t want to be Martha’s second best.

So he only stole a few times when he first came here and was down and out. Now that he is not short of money, he should still abide by the rules sometimes.

"A total of 18 Philippine dollars." The cashier lady smiled.

A black uncle named Red packed the things for the two of them. There were no plastic bags yet, so the two bought a cloth bag for 6 cents.

In fact, he didn't even need to install it specially. Levi put the things he bought into the space as soon as he went out.

The bulk of the remaining 17 Philippine dollars and 94 Philippine cents is whiskey used to refine the alchemical base. Whiskey is the only alcoholic beverage that has not been affected by Prohibition and has become increasingly popular.

Because a group of righteous and courageous doctors have collectively stated that whiskey is an effective remedy for stomach ailments and indigestion.

Whether or not this is true, the doctors of 4000 were truly heroes to the 1920 million new patients with stomach problems in the United States.

Of course, they inevitably become more expensive and require a doctor's prescription to purchase in specialty stores.

Levi's prescription was prescribed by a doctor in Bridgewick. Unlike the others, he really had stomach problems. Perhaps it was because Lao Chen's restaurant was not hygienic and Lao Li always felt stomachache.

After leaving the department store, the two people started walking along the street again. They still had some things to buy at the shops outside.
