They sat down facing each other in Mr. Charlie's ice cream shop. Harry completely relaxed his limbs, sank his body limply into the soft sofa chair, snorted softly, squinted his eyes and glanced sideways at Chris: "Well , it’s still more comfortable like this... are you okay?” The boy across from him didn’t have the energy to maintain his image anymore, he closed his eyes and wiped the sweat that had flowed down his cheeks, leaning back on the chair wearily Shang whispered: "It's okay, but if I knew it would happen, I wouldn't have come so early. It's really tiring."

In Harry's impression, they should have been walking in the forest for a long time, even if it was already night when they left the forest, he would not feel strange, but what is strange is that they had just arrived here After noon.No matter how you calculate it, this is an unbelievable thing. Thinking of this, Harry yawned unconsciously, only feeling that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and he felt like he wanted to directly A posture of falling asleep.The curtains of this ice cream shop are the kind of very thin blue-white gauze that does not block light very much. After the warm afternoon sun passes through it, it becomes soft and feels very comfortable on the body. Harry squinted comfortably. Eyes, like a satisfied cat lying on the terrace basking in the sun.

Then there were footsteps from far to near, not very light but not too heavy, Harry forced himself to open his eyes, and at the same time he heard the sound of the bottom of the cup knocking lightly on the table, he walked along the pair of The broad and powerful palm looked up, but what his eyes touched was a middle-aged man wearing a loose casual wizard robe.

"Hello, young gentleman, I'm Nillen Charlie, the owner of this ice cream shop." He put two cups of warm water with lemon slices floating in front of Harry and Chris respectively, and then smiled gently at the side He sat down on the chair and said, "This is the first time for you to come to Istian. I think the journey has been very hard, huh?" His appearance is not outstanding at all, not even handsome In fact, it's just that people don't feel uncomfortable looking at it, but I have to admit that this is a very temperamental man.

"Yes, I thought it would be already evening when we arrived here, but I didn't expect it to be so early." Harry smiled politely, nodded slightly to echo Charlie's point of view, and of course there was some cliché in it. "Actually, it doesn't take long, because the road is not long...Let me guess, you guys came from Imofane, right?" Charlie smiled gently, as if he was already aware of their situation. It's not surprising anymore, so Harry raised his eyebrows with a little surprise: "Yes, but how would you know... Or, in Imofani, students often sneak out to play?"

"It's not often, after all, your homework is not easy after all, that is, occasionally students come here on weekends, and there are first graders... Speaking of which, among the young wizards who enrolled this year, you are The first to come." Charlie smiled softly, and pushed the warm water on the table towards Harry: "Drink some water, the temperature is just right now, and the little wizards who come here for the first time can't think of it." You have to bring some water to drink on the way, don’t you?”

"It's true... I didn't expect it." Harry blushed slightly. Before he came out, Chris hadn't told him where he was going, so he really didn't expect this, except for Zhuoguo, North America He carried nothing but the common wizarding currency. "It's okay, kid, don't take it too seriously, you'll remember it the next time you come here." Charlie curled his lips reassuringly, and patted Harry's shoulder lightly, his eyes filled with The obvious smile.

Harry grinned and returned a bright smile with a little embarrassment, then picked up the glass on the table, and took a big gulp of water directly to himself, of course, after Voldemort confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the glass of water.The slightly astringent fragrance of lemon and the rich sweetness of honey immediately spread between his lips and teeth. Although it was just a glass of water, it almost made Harry think he was tasting sunshine.The boy raised his head slightly in surprise, his lake green eyes were full of surprises: "This is great, Mr. Charlie, I never thought that a glass of water could have such a wonderful taste."

"Just like it. Little wizards are easy to have a good impression of lemon honey water when they first come here, but soon they will be more interested in other drinks. Although the taste of other varieties is not bad, I think My favorite is actually it." Mr. Charlie was obviously very pleased with this, and he still wanted to say something to Harry, but at this time, a new customer walked into this spacious and bright ice cream shop.So he gave Harry a regretful smile, then stood up to meet him. Harry smiled at his back, then turned his head half prone on the table and stared at his sleepy roommate in a daze.

Presumably because of the large number of people, the surrounding environment gradually became noisy. This kind of movement finally woke up the boy who was sleeping peacefully opposite Harry. He muttered something softly, then moved and recovered from fatigue and stiffness. Some bodies, reluctantly opened those beautiful gray eyes. "Harry, what time is it now? Have I been asleep for a long time?" Chris glanced out the window in a half-dream, and then opened his eyes wide in surprise. It means: "I shouldn't have slept for so long, I'm afraid I have to wait for the night market now." With a soft sigh, Chris shrugged helplessly.

"Why do you have to wait for the night market? I think it's very lively outside now." Harry turned his gaze back from the window to meet his gaze, with obvious confusion on his expression. "That's different." Chris took a sip of the lemon honey water that had completely cooled in front of him, and said slowly.Now that he sat up straight again, that elegant aristocratic style was immediately and perfectly presented.Therefore, things like temperament cannot be pretended. Only those who have received good family education since childhood and have engraved the etiquette norms into their bones will shine in the crowd all the time, just like the person sitting across from Harry. Chris.

"Well, it's different if you say it's different, so are we going to wait here for the night market to start?" Harry fiddled with his fingers a little bored. Although he was indeed tired, he was a Gryffin with distinctive characteristics. As long as they can still move, they will never be willing to curl up in a comfortable corner to rest when they come to a new environment. What they want to do is to explore the unknown world.

"Why are you waiting here? Don't you think we should find a place to solve the problem of dinner now? Besides... I don't think we can go back tonight, so we have to book a room in advance. "Chris drank the remaining water in the glass in one go, and then added: "By the way, I seem to have forgotten to tell you... It's my first time here too, and I've heard these things from others before. , so don’t trust me too much in leading the way.”

While listening to the first part, Harry was thinking about whether they would be discovered if they didn't come home at night, but when he heard the second part, the little black-haired and green-eyed savior almost exploded: "Hey, Chris, what are you doing?" What do you mean, so you dragged me here because you didn’t understand it yourself, and besides, don’t you think it’s dangerous for us two little wizards to spend the night outside alone?” Said yes That said, but in fact, Harry was already ready to stay out for the night, and he would rather stay in Istian's hotel for one night than "passing through the ghostly forest at this time".

"This, it's my fault. I didn't think it would take so long before." Chris coughed lightly, and lowered his eyes embarrassedly: "But it's already this time, why don't we go back through the forest now?" Isn't it more dangerous?" "I didn't say that I must go back. If that's the case, let's find a way to find a hotel now." Harry didn't have the idea of ​​arguing with him on this point, no matter how he looked at it, the business should come first. Before this, for example, where do they sleep tonight.

"Don't worry too much about the hotel. Generally speaking, there won't be many people at this time." Realizing that Harry was worried about this, Chris subconsciously comforted him: "Uncle Morris said, there are two or three hotels here. " Morris...it was Morris again, Harry tried his best to restrain himself from complaining about Chris's uncle, and asked in a neutral way: "I believe there will be a hotel here, but Chris , do you know where it is?"

It's a godsend!

The young man who was still full of energy just now seemed to have faltered in an instant. Chris, who had no obvious road-crazy attributes, couldn't help but sighed. He pursed his lips and glanced sideways at Harry, which basically meant to say, "You can do it." come on'!Harry raised his eyebrows beautifully, got up and walked out. That’s right, he didn’t know where Istian’s hotel was, but he just didn’t know how to look. Wouldn’t he know how to ask? After the witch who sold gadgets, Harry easily got the exact location of the Canis Inn, and then he pretended to pat the non-existent dust on his body, and was about to go out in a smart way.

"Well, our little savior is getting more and more courageous after leaving school privately and not returning at night. Should I reward your progress?" Voldemort's voice sounded in his consciousness, obviously with a mocking tone It made Harry inexplicably unhappy. "I just came out to play with Chris, why did this provoke you again, what are you dissatisfied with, please tell me, I don't have the energy to go around with you now."

Voldemort didn't speak, as if he was choked hard by Harry's bluntness, but then he smirked and clapped his hands a few times, his tone seemed to be heavy but not serious, and he stopped back: "I'm getting more and more courageous, Potter, is it because I think I won't touch you no matter what, that's why I'm so confident. If so, I'll let you know that you are wrong."

Harry sighed weakly, and made up his mind not to pay any attention to someone's unreasonable troubles. He had neither provoked him nor provoked him today, so why did Voldemort come to trouble him so firmly? It will also become a habit. Do you feel uncomfortable if you don't do it for a day?
