[HP] Walk in Thorns and Flowers

Chapter 12 Pride and Prejudice

Christo returned to the cabin to write a letter to Dumbledore and Lockhart.She sat on the sofa humming a ditty softly, and she was waiting for the full daylight.Harry said Hagrid would take him shopping for everything.

"Christopher!" A man dressed as a Muggle suddenly rushed into the cabin and hugged Christo tightly.

Harry stood there dumbfounded: "Oh, Christophe, is this your father?"

Lockhart gave him a vicious look, this brat who came out of nowhere actually called him Christophe's father!

Kristall broke free from his embrace and poured a cup of cold tea into his mouth, Harry continued to maintain his mouth wide open.

"Harry, this is my guardian, Gilderoy Lockhart." She said to Lockhart again, "This is Harry Potter. He and Hagrid saved me."

"Harry Potter!" Lockhart jumped up from the sofa, "You said he was Harry Potter!" He looked at the thin boy in front of him in surprise, picked up Harry's bangs, His eyes widened all of a sudden.

Christo didn't think it was so strange, she said in a flat tone: "Also, Gilderoy, I wrote back to Dumbledore, thank you!"

"Boy!" He ignored Christophe's words, and patted Harry's shoulder heavily, shaking Harry, "I know you are very famous, but now it's not about chasing stars. To be a real respectable person, you should do something practical." Instead of hooking up with my assistant, Lockhart didn't say the last sentence, he was playing a serious man at the moment. Senior, unfortunately, his bright voice woke Hagrid up.

"Who's there?" Hagrid narrowed his eyes and looked over.

"Mr. Hagrid, hello. I'm Gilderoy Lockhart." Lockhart looked up at Hagrid, who was a head taller than him, and immediately became polite.

"So it was you," muttered Hagrid, and he sat down again, pulling on his boat-like shoes.

Christophe held out her hand to Lockhart.

"what would you like?"

"The key to Gringotts, you promised me." Christophe said patiently, "I'm going to buy magic supplies with Harry later..."

Harry felt Lockhart's knife-like eyes on him again.

"Kerry, I will accompany you. As a guardian, how can I be absent at this time?"

Christo stared at it for a while, and Lockhart always gave him his most sincere smile.

"But—don't you think you're going to make trouble? Your crazy fans will block the whole street."

Lockhart opened his mouth, and for the first time there was distress in his gray-blue eyes.He fumbled in his shirt pocket, and put a golden key into Christo's hand.

"Okay, Keri, I'm sorry, celebrities can't help themselves." Lockhart tried his best not to look so disappointed, he grabbed Christo's small shoulders, "little one, you must pay attention Be safe! Don't get lost in Knockturn Alley!"

Christo said slowly, "It's okay, I'm only afraid of one thing. Harry will protect me, won't you, Harry?" She winked at Harry, took Lockhart's wand, She cast a few spells on herself, and suddenly her long blond hair became smooth and neat, and her white shirt and jeans looked new again. She didn't notice that when Harry nodded, Lockhart gave him a savage look.

They arrived in front of a dilapidated, inconspicuous bar in Muggle transport. Along the way, due to the golden hair of Lockhart and Christophe, and the big, complaining Hagrid from time to time, they were already surrounded by passers-by several times.Christo decisively drives Lockhart away.

But things didn't get easier because of the loud voices, which made Christo frowned—the Harry, who she thought was the most normal, was actually surrounded by crowds!Everyone in the bar frantically flocked to see the messy-haired boy, as if they had seen Merlin resurrected in their lifetime.

Except for a wizard with greasy hair and billowing black robes—he obviously didn't notice the commotion behind him, and hurriedly disappeared around the corner of the backyard with three people in obvious Muggle attire.Christopher pulled Hagrid's clothes, "Mr. Hagrid, I think I'd rather stay in Diagon Alley." "Oh, okay, be safe." Hagrid looked at Harry with his head shaking. Did not turn around.

Christo walked through the crowd, just in time to see the wizard tap on a brick above the trash can, the brick shook, and a wide archway appeared on the wall, wide enough for a figure as large as Hagrid to pass through , leading to a winding cobbled street with no end in sight.Christo hurriedly followed, and the wall was sealed behind her.Her eyes were immediately attracted - a sign hung above a stack of pots outside the nearest store: Copper - Brass - Tin Plated - Silver Cauldrons, Complete Models, Automatic Stirring - Collapsible.She was drooling, she had seen the little shop stocked with the standard size 1 pewter pots she had always wanted, no, in fact, she wanted them all!She touched her pocket, and suddenly remembered that she only had one key—she had to go to get some money, but she found that she couldn't find her way in distress. Fortunately, she saw the greasy black ...

Coming out of Gringotts, Christo was dizzy and her stomach was about to move. It was really uncomfortable. She stood on the steps for a long time before walking towards the crowd with a bad expression.The greasy black had completely disappeared, and Christo curled her lips.Now her pockets are full of Galleons, and she wants to buy a whole set of all kinds of cauldrons, containers for potions, and tools for handling potions.In fact, she did the same. After she paid the money, she suddenly realized, oh my god, how could she go shopping with such a pile of things? She looked at her thin arms and her whole face was in pain wrinkled.

When Severus Snape walked into the shop with three Muggles, he immediately saw the little girl with blond hair standing there.It was hard for him not to notice—so small, with such a tall pile of potions supplies in front of him.The little girl from a Muggle family must have had her brain eaten by a troll, he sneered inwardly.When he turned his eyes to the pile of potion supplies again, he was a little surprised, the choice was complete and not redundant.He couldn't help but look at the girl more.

Christo was distracted thinking about what to do with this pile of things. If she had known, she would have asked Lockhart to come with her. At least, she could borrow his wand...

"Little girl, do you need my help?" The noise did not cover up the clear and sweet voice.Christo raised her head, in fact, she tried to raise her little head.

The girl in front of her is very tall, her thick brown hair only reaches her shoulders, and it is curled freely against her pretty chin. There is a big smile on the corner of her lips, and the dimples on her cheeks are very obvious. Good impression.

Christo's eyes lit up—the girl was holding a Defense Against the Dark Arts textbook in her hand.She nodded quickly: "Ah, senior sister, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"You can call me Beatrice." The girl seemed to be in a very happy mood. She tilted her head slightly, and the big gold-studded jadeite fan-shaped earrings swayed in an arc, reflecting her emerald green eyes, which were light and bright.

"My name is Christo McMillan." Christo looked at her with bright eyes.Beatrice blinked at her, and with a wave of her hand, Christo's things floated in the air.

"It's amazing!" Christo's eyes were wide open, and she didn't see Beatrice's wand after looking for a long time.

Beatrice took her hand: "So, Christo, is there anything you haven't bought yet?"

Christo stuck out her tongue embarrassingly: "Except for this pile of crucibles that take up space, the fragile potion vessels - the roller coaster at Gringotts made me dizzy." She was about to follow Beato Liz stepped out of the door, and a cold voice suddenly came from behind: "Miss McMillan—" She turned around in surprise, and took a closer look. It turned out that it was the wizard with greasy hair and deep and cold features. Frowning, looking displeased.Christo was at a loss for a while, but Beatrice beside her giggled: "Why, are you still worried about me? I'm not the big bad wolf in Knockturn Alley who wants to eat Little Red Riding Hood."

The wizard on the opposite side seemed to have noticed something, snorted coldly, turned around, and said nothing more.

Christo was confused when he heard it, and the young wizards around seemed to be completely frightened, and they all stared blankly at Beatrice, but the latter took Christo's hand and walked out indifferently. shop.
