Quirrell was baffled by Mr. Weasley's questioning, and he didn't know why Mrs. Weasley reacted so violently.But before he could explain, Mrs. Weasley had already started persuading her husband.

"Arthur, nothing."

"But I clearly saw..." Mr. Weasley said at the top of his voice.

"It's really nothing, Arthur!" Molly held her husband tightly, "I just asked Professor Quirrell about the status of the children at school."

Arthur was full of guard and hostility towards Quirrell. He didn't understand why his wife came to talk to this man. Although he didn't stop him out of trust in his wife, it didn't mean he was really relieved.So he just left the kids at the used bookstore in the care of their older brother, while he himself immediately ran to find his wife.

"Why do you ask him about those things? We can ask Professor McGonagall or Dean Dumbledore directly." Arthur said sullenly, still looking at Quirrell with full of vigilance.

Quirrell sighed softly, not planning to continue entanglement with the couple, he took out a Sickle and put it on the dining table: "It was a pleasure talking to you, goodbye, Mr. and Mrs. Weasley."

"Goodbye, Professor Quirrell." Mrs. Weasley said goodbye as politely as possible, but Mr. Weasley snorted coldly, took out a few Knuts from his pocket, and threw them beside his wife's glass of soda , picked up the silver Sickle on the other side, and threw it backhand, just right on Quirrell, "We don't need you to pay the bill!"

Quirrell was thrown to a halt, his brows wrinkled, but soon opened again.The characteristics of most Gryffindors are boldness and clear grievances, but now, he is not only the object of suspicion of the White Wizard camp, but also appears very closely with the biggest enemy of the Weasley family, Lucius Malfoy, so resented It is a matter of course.Moreover, the other party was his student's father after all. Although Quirrell was unhappy, he suppressed the anger in his chest and did not plan to have the same experience as them.

"As you said, but I'm paying my own bill." Quirrell took out his wallet, rummaged through it, and threw a Galleon next to his glass of soda—except at this time last year. After going to Diagon Alley to buy sundries, Quirrell either didn't buy them himself at all, or bought mostly expensive books and materials, so the change in his pocket had already been spent.Sickle, which was just thrown to the ground by Mr. Weasley, was the least valuable currency in his purse, and the rest were Galleons.

If the Sico dropped off the table by itself, Quirrell would pick it up and put it back on.But that pistachio was thrown by Weasley, and it was absolutely impossible for Quirrell to bend down to pick it up, so he could only put a Garen.

But Mr. Weasley didn't think so. Quirrell's words made him think it was a mockery of his family's poverty.His face, including the bald part on the top of his head, was red with anger.

Quirrell frowned again, not understanding why the Weasleys were so inexplicably angry.But he is not going to care about these, he has vaguely seen the "brilliant" Malfoy and his son walking towards here, and it seems that the time is almost at the end of Gilderoy Lockhart's signing, he should do it business.

Smiling at Lucius who was looking for him, he patted Draco on the shoulder again. The family of three smiled and walked towards Lihen Bookstore. On the way, they met the Granger family and Harry who had returned from buying books.Although Harry came with the Weasleys, the children of the Weasleys were going to the second-hand bookstore, and Harry wanted to buy new books, so Harry was temporarily entrusted to the care of the Grangers.

Harry looked very tired, with a sluggish face, while Hermione was holding a thick stack of books, talking non-stop in Harry's ear, and obviously, this made Harry even more tired.When Harry saw them, his aggrieved green eyes lit up instantly, and he jumped up almost instantly, waving his arms at them: "Draco! Professor Quirrell! Mr. Malfoy!"

So the seven people who met again by chance greeted each other, and the process was similar to the last time they met.Because the destinations of the two parties are different, they were about to break up soon, but Harry said that he would go with Quirrell and the others: "My godfather is not at home. He originally wanted me to move to the Weasleys' house after today, but I'd rather live at Mr. Malfoy's. Do you welcome me, Draco?"

Both Quirrell and Lucius had strange expressions on their faces. Isn't Sirius Black in Black's old house?Although he knew that Sirius was not a stable person, he had only been reunited with Harry for a short time.And according to Harry, the time he will leave this time is definitely not short.

It was hard to imagine what it was that made him leave Harry and go out for a long time.

The Grangers are a bit difficult to do, not because they don’t believe Quirrell and Lucius—even after hearing the Weasleys’ description of Malfoy, they have also heard about Death Eaters and Dark Wizards from their daughter’s books .But after meeting, they felt that Malfoy was nothing more than an old-fashioned and proud nobleman in the wizarding world.

Isn't there no such people in the Muggle world?As dentists, the Grangers were considered high-income families, and it was not like he had never seen a Muggle aristocrat like Malfoy.So they couldn't be as wary of Malfoy as Weasley or other Gryffindor families in the wizarding world, at most they kept them at arm's length.

And Quirrell is a professor, and he is praised by his daughter, and also gives his daughter special benefits from the wizarding world.Although they didn't clearly understand the significance of the Merlin Medal to wizards, according to the definition of Muggle society, it should be awarded to those who have made outstanding contributions to society.

But they were just taking care of Harry temporarily. Only Mr. Weasley could make up his mind about this kind of thing, right?

Quirrell didn't want the Grangers to be difficult, so he persuaded Harry and said that he would go to the broom shop after four o'clock. If the Weasleys let him go, Harry could go to the broom shop and wait for them.

Harry agreed wearily, but it was obvious that he also knew that Mr. and Mrs. Weasley would not agree.

Afterwards, there was no obstacle at all, and they arrived at Lihen Bookstore safely.But even though the signing time had passed, the entrance of Lihen Bookstore was still full of people and reporters.Quirrell and Lucius glanced at each other, guarding Drake in the center, and just wanted to give him a gentle squeeze.There was a sudden commotion around them, and the crowd parted ways. Following the flashing lights one after another, a blond wizard with shining white teeth came over.

"Isn't this Mr. Lucius Malfoy, and his son?!" The man smiled, and his white teeth became more glaring!He rushed over and wanted to grab Lucius' shoulder, but his left hand was blocked by the snake rod, and another person grabbed his right hand.

"I know you want my autograph, but I'm sorry, I don't have time now." Lockhart glanced at Quirrell, laughed and drew back his right hand, but grabbed Lucius' snake staff with his left hand "It's really warm, Mr. Malfoy, but I can't accept such a precious gift."

At this moment, the eyes of the family of three were as if looking at an idiot.

"Come on, let's take a picture..." Lockhart wanted to catch Lucius, but before he finished speaking, Quirrell stood in front of Lucius, so he caught Lucius It was Quirrell's arm.

This feeling of being protected is very interesting. Lucius looked at Drake, smiled at his son who was looking at him at the same time, and then pulled Drake straight to the counter of Lihen Bookstore.

"I said I don't have time to give you an autograph or anything else right now! Mr. Malfoy~" Lockhart wanted to chase Lucius again, but Quirrell stood in front of him again, and Lockhart was a little impatient He raised his head, but in an instant his face turned pale with fear, and he froze in place!

"Who is that psychopath?" Lockhart didn't bother them during the book-buying time.When leaving the bookstore, Quirrell couldn't help asking.

"That's Gilderoy Lockhart."

Quirrell froze for a moment. He remembered that Lucius had said that the guy was a liar, but he still took chances: "Is he a eccentric scholar?"

"..." Lucius gave him a look full of pity.

Quirrell's dream of a scholar was instantly shattered.

After Lihen Bookstore, they went to the stationery store and the potion store. The three bought some needed or favorite supplies for themselves, and then they went to the broom store.

Drake was able to try out for the school Quidditch team in his second year, a Malfoy must have the best broom, and until Drake's Nimbus 2001 and broom kit were wrapped up, the clock was pointing to At five o'clock, Harry didn't show up either.But before leaving, Quirrell and Malfoy still told the clerk that if a boy named Harry Potter came, please owl them.

The name of Harry Potter and the generous tip make the clerk nod again and again.

After finally buying all the things that should be bought, the two big men and a small man couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief at the same time—shopping is really tiring.

"Going home?" Quirrell asked.

Lucius hesitated for a moment, looked at Drake, and then said to Quirrell, "I want to take Xiaolong to Knockturn Alley."

Drake's expression suddenly became tense and expectant. Knockturn Alley is dangerous, but at the same time, Knockturn Alley is a place where most powerful wizards will visit, because there are things that cannot be bought elsewhere.Even Dumbledore couldn't say he never went shopping in Knockturn Alley.

For many aristocratic families, being taken to Knockturn Alley by father and brother has almost become one of the rituals of adulthood.

"Okay." Quirrell smiled. Lucius could find another time to take Drake by himself, but he chose today, and it was still so late. This was also his acceptance of Quirrell...
