"Tom! Are you packed? We should go." Luo Bai stood outside the house and shouted.

"Okay." Tom stuck out his head from the room and smiled at Luo Bai, dragging his things down.

A summer vacation passed like this.

They finally found a piece of paper among the documents left by Mrs. Cole-it was a notice of the transfer of an orphanage.It said that in order to improve the environment of the orphanage, the government transferred them to an orphanage in Birmingham and merged with the orphanage there.

Tom and Luo Bai understood that there would be only the two of them in this place in the future, at least according to the notice, they probably wouldn't come back.

That night, the two of them guarded the huge and empty orphanage, lying on the bed and chatting.

"Mrs. Cole didn't inform us," said Tom, with no emotion in his black eyes.

"Maybe she didn't know how to find us," Luo Bai said, "Actually..."

Actually what?Both of them knew that Mrs. Cole and the children didn't want them to go back to the orphanage at all.

"Yeah." Tom turned over, keeping his eyes on Luo Bai.

"It's okay." Luo Bai patted Tom on the shoulder, thinking he was feeling uncomfortable, and said, "At least I'm still with you, and we'll be able to go back to Hogwarts soon."

Tom's eyes glowed because of Luo Bai's words, and he was full of a smile: "Yes."

——Actually, it’s good for two people to be together.Tom poked Luo Bai's soft cheek with his fingers.

"It's really lively." Luo Bai said, Diagon Alley was full of bustling crowds, Luo Bai and the others were sitting at a public round table in Diagon Alley to enjoy the cool, and many immature little wizards had yearning and joyful expressions Taken by their parents to visit and shop in Diagon Alley.

"The beginning of a new semester." Tom also glanced at the crowd, and then buried his eyes in the book.

Luo Bai shrugged, took a sip of the juice in the glass, and then wrote and drew in his notebook.

"Hello, can I sit here?" A familiar voice sounded.

Luo Bai looked up, with a cute smile on his face: "Of course, Noah."

"Thank you." Noah Zabini opened a chair and sat down next to Luo Bai, glanced at the two of them and said, "It seems that I'm a little late, have you all bought everything?"

"Almost," Luo Bai said, biting the straw.

"Berrell has become cute again." Zabini suddenly approached Luo Bai's direction, breathing on his neck.

Tom obviously showed displeasure, he pulled Luo Bai towards him, and said in warning: "Zabini."

"...Just kidding." Zabini sat back in his seat, as if he hadn't done anything just now.

Luo Bai felt that his face was a little red. The face of this body was indeed very delicate and beautiful, but when he heard someone say that this face was beautiful and cute, he would feel a little embarrassed, so he glanced at it. "Your face is darker," Zabini said.

"..."

"..."

"Probably because I went on a trip to Egypt." Zabini said, took out two boxes from his pocket and handed them to Luo Bai and Tom respectively: "By the way, I brought you gifts."

"Thank you, Noah." Luo Bai took the box and thanked him.

"Don't be so anxious to thank me, maybe there is a mummy of a cobra in the box?"

"...No way." Luo Bai's hand on the box paused suspiciously for two seconds, and then opened it anyway.

—a dainty gold armband studded with fiery ruby ​​roses.

"..." Luo Bai glanced at the armband, then at Zabini, then at the armband, and said in disbelief, "This is for... me?"

"Don't you like it?" Zabini said. "I think it's perfect for you."

"This one too..." Luo Bai's face was tangled—it looked like a woman's thing, and "Isn't this too expensive?"

"You can accept what is given to you. I haven't sent a gift yet and took it back." Zabini glanced at Tom who had been silent.

——Is it true?Luo Bai said that as an ordinary person, he can now see a big rose-shaped gemstone inlaid on it.

"Thank you—" Luo Bai closed the box, expressing that the light reflected from the gem almost blinded his eyes.

"Tom, don't you want to see the gift I gave you?" Zabini said to Tom who had been unmoved.

"..." Tom opened the box in silence, and Luo Bai hurriedly stretched his head to look.Inside was an ancient sheepskin scroll. Tom just glanced at it but didn't open it. He closed the lid and said to Zabini, "Thank you."

"It's nothing." Zabini glanced absently at the crowd around him, showing a bored look, but his expression changed soon.

"Would you like to go somewhere with me?" Zabini asked.

"Where are you going?" Luo Bai asked curiously.

Zabini's expression also became a little more mysterious: "Tump Alley."

Tom also put down the book in his hand and began to listen to Zabini.

Luo Bai knew what Diagon Alley was—the gathering place of dark wizards.

"Okay."— Tom agreed without even thinking about it.

Zabini smiled and said, "Are you ready? Let you see the other side of the magic world."

Wait—don't you take my advice?Without knowing it, Luo Bai followed them to the place that was said to be the "garbage gathering place" in the magic world.

Tumbling Alley - This remote and gloomy alley is so incompatible with the atmosphere of Diagon Alley, there are only a few people here, everyone is in a hurry, they are all wearing heavy cloaks, like Tom and the three of them in black The small figure in the cloak is very conspicuous.

"Let's go back." Luo Bai said, the environment here made him a little uncomfortable, there was a man staring at them fiercely at a corner, Luo Bai felt as if he saw the canine teeth protruding from the corner of his mouth——

And the wrinkled old witch sitting in front of a shop grinding something that wasn't really a human bone? !

"Don't worry," Zabini said, with even a hint of excitement in his voice, "Dump Alley is like this. I've been there once with my uncle—for special occasions, you know, where you can find many Good products that the outside world can't find, we are almost there."

They stopped in front of a dilapidated shop with a battered plaque that said 'Bokin Shop', covered in dust and what looked like dirty handprints.

"Come on," Zabini opened the door first, "see what's good."

Luo Bai and Tom also went in after him.

"Hi, Hogwarts students." A hoarse voice said, "Welcome to Bokin's store. Do you need anything?" It was a thin and ordinary middle-aged man who was cleaning The things on the counter showed yellow teeth and smiled at the people who came in, "What a disobedient child."

Zabini took off his hood and said to him, "None of your business, Bock, we're just here to see."

"Young master of the Zabini family," Bok greeted him, and his attitude became a little obsequious: "Is your uncle satisfied with our products last time? There are many new varieties in the shop... ..."

"I'll tell my uncle," Zabini said with a slight frown, showing an impatient expression, "We're just taking a look."

"Of course, of course, Master Zabini," Bock nodded and went back to the counter, with a wretched smile on his fairly upright face.

"He's a vampire." Zabini said disdainfully: "His store is quite complete. Generally speaking, merchants like Bok have their own special channels. Hmph, humans are more greedy than goblins."

They began to visit Bock's small shop. Most of the things in this shop were of very strange shapes, like a half-broken crystal ball, a strangely shaped animal bone, or a skull with a hole in its forehead...

Tom's eyes stopped suddenly, and he carefully looked at a golden locket in the corner of the counter.

It was an unusually exquisite locket with an 's' pattern formed by two snakes intertwined together. It was a locket that fit Slytherin's aesthetics very well.

Looking at the locket, Tom felt that the blood in his whole body was about to boil. He looked at the locket fascinatedly, and a red light flashed in his eyes.
