"So, how's that investigation going?"

"What's the matter?" Alice yawned big while drinking the milk.

There were only a handful of people at the Ravenclaw table, and the first week of school was exhausting.

Packing up and saluting, handing in homework, and going to class, after a series of operations, most people choose to give up breakfast this weekend and sleep late.

"What can happen? It's not the murder case."

Speaking of the word "killing", Carrie couldn't help lowering her voice.Even after a few weeks, she still felt scared.

"It means that the beast killed people." Alice shrugged. "Fortunately, the people are very forgetful, and Diluc's ice cream shop has regained its vitality."

The official news is that the tiger escaped during the night at the zoo, and the thief was just out of luck.Even though some people still shouted, but with the endorsement of the local zoo, most people still chose to believe it.

Carrie clicked her tongue: "Is this the end?"

"This is the end." Alice changed the subject, "Today is the weekend, why don't you accompany me to Hogsmeade."

"Hogsmeade? Although you said that the sixth grade should relax, I didn't expect such a big change."

Although it was normal to go to Hogsmeade on the weekend, it was still the first week of school.Carrie knew that Alice used to go to Hogsmeade once every two weeks.

Half the day was spent restocking her own "Hall Store", and Carrie complained that she couldn't understand the way her friend relaxed.If you don't study, starting a business means relaxing and entertaining, right?

"I just have something to do, so it's good to go over there for a stroll."

Alice was also taken aback by what happened during the holiday, so it would be nice to go to Hogsmeade for a break.

The repeated murders in the same house, the torn bodies, and the official whitewash all hinted that this was not a simple matter.

But none of this has anything to do with Alice.As an underage child, the only thing she can do is stay out of danger.Even though she got along well with Di Luke and the others, Alice chose to end her part-time job early.

"Is something wrong? What's the matter?"

"A pair of glasses."

Alice squinted her eyes. Recently, she felt that seeing the blackboard was a bit blurry. It would be better to wear a pair of glasses.

……

Hogsmeade is always so lively in the first week of school, and when passing through the bustling crowd, Carrie couldn't help complaining: "Why can't magic cure myopia?"

"Because magic is not omnipotent." Alice said succinctly, "But I think potions may be able to solve this problem."

In Alice's view, the reason why the spell effect is short-term is mainly because it completely depends on the magic power of the caster. When the magic power of the caster dissipates, the spell should also disappear.

But potions are different. In the process of making potions, the magic power only acts as a guide to make the fusion of potion materials take effect, so the effect of many potions is permanent.

"Stop, stop!" Carrie hurriedly stopped, "We came out to get glasses and take a break. I don't want to hear such academic knowledge."

"Okay." Alice agreed, pointing to the front, "Is it popular to raise pigs as pets now?"

"Uh……"

"It's not good to let pet pigs run around on the street, let alone whether they will hit pedestrians, what if they are caught and eaten?"

"Alice." Carrie narrowed her eyes and looked forward, then turned around with a solemn expression, "I think we should stop shopping and get glasses first?"

Alice was puzzled: "Didn't you say to go shopping first? We don't need to be so anxious."

"That is, is it possible that the pig is a yellow dog?"

Carrie looked pityingly at the running poodle, what a lovely little dog, wagging its tail and sticking out its tongue.Fortunately, it can't understand human language, so it won't know that it was once regarded as a pig.

"..." After a moment of silence, Alice coughed a few times, "Okay, let's go get glasses first."

The optical shop is in the corner, and just by looking at the decoration, you can tell that the business is not doing well.

This is also normal, the little wizard's academic pressure is not heavy, compared with the study of theoretical knowledge, there are more practical courses.So in general, myopic wizards are only a very small minority.

"Welcome! Welcome!" Alice and Carrie were greeted warmly by a lady as soon as they stepped into the store.

"You can call me Mrs. Williams."

Mrs. Williams wore a sapphire-colored gown with exaggerated lace trim.Not like a wizard but like a lady at a party.

"You must be very studious little wizards." Mrs. Williams said with a smile, "Only a few students come to match or order glasses through the illustration book every year."

"I think you misunderstood." Carrie waved her hand, "I don't need to deserve it, it's Alice."

"I hope you can understand that there is no business recently, so I am a little excited." Mrs. Williams winked at Alice. "As far as I know, a very small number of people will have great achievements in the future without exception."

"The future?" Carrie was puzzled. Mrs. Williams looked to be in her thirties. How could she know the future of those people?

"Look at my memory." Mrs. Williams raised her head proudly, "Please allow me to introduce to you, Williams Optical Shop, which has a history of [-] years, will definitely bring you the best service."

Without waiting for Alice and the others to respond, Mrs. Williams continued to explain: "It is a tradition in our family that even a daughter will not change her surname after marriage."

Alice finally knew what the familiar feeling was when she walked in the door. It was so similar to the feeling she had in Ollivander's wand shop.

"Okay dear." Mrs. Williams waved her wand, "Let's hurry up and start."

"Which style do you want?"

Alice was stunned by hundreds of pairs of glasses at the entire counter, which was more similar to Ollivander.

"It's great!" Carrie said, "I want to buy a pair of Dai Dai."

"It's not impossible, we also have glasses without lenses." Mrs. Williams smiled and handed Carrie a pair of black-rimmed glasses. "These look ordinary, but they look handsome when worn by the right person."

Carrie put on this pair of ordinary-looking glasses, and turned to look at Alice: "How is it? Are you handsome?"

"Handsome is handsome, it's even better if you don't talk."

Mrs. Williams has good eyesight, and Carrie's short black hair is very deceptive, provided, of course, that she keeps her mouth shut.

"Then Alice, hurry up and choose a pair. These glasses will automatically adjust the degree."

Alice hesitated for a while facing hundreds of pairs of glasses, and chose a pair of glasses with a rose gold frame based on her feeling.

"It matches your temperament very well," Mrs. Williams praised.

Wearing glasses, Alice felt that her vision was suddenly clear: "Carrie, have you stayed up late recently? The skin condition is not good."

Carrie became angry with embarrassment: "Aren't you being too clear?"

"Hahaha." Mrs. Williams smiled prettily, "It's true when I just put on my glasses, it will be fine after a while."

"Don't you need measures?"

"No, don't forget that we know magic." Mrs. Williams waved her wand, and Alice's glasses glowed blue.

Taking a closer look, Mrs. Williams nodded: "It was just one hundred degrees, and this pair of glasses has a slight corrective function. Since your degree of myopia is so low, it will recover after wearing it for a while."

"Really!" Alice was pleasantly surprised. Wearing glasses is not only inconvenient but also beautiful.It has been a long time since she found out that she was short-sighted.

"Of course it's true. But you should pay attention to rest in the future and don't read in the dark."

Alice nodded with lingering fear. She had already thought about it before, and she would not read books at night.At the same time, most of the theoretical study is replaced by magical practice.

Fortunately, it has long been decided that the sixth grader should take a good rest.

Carrie held up her hands: "I have a problem!"

"what?"

"Why do I feel that Alice's degree is not so low? On the street before..."

"Carrie!"

"She didn't see things very clearly on the road before." Carrie changed her words under Alice's threatening gaze, "Is there something wrong with the detection?"

"No way." Mrs. Williams was lost in thought.

Taking advantage of Mrs. Williams' inattention, Alice moved closer to Carrie and whispered, "Don't tell what happened today! Do I want to lose face?"

Carrie nodded frantically, raising her hand and swearing.

"That's right! There's still this possibility!" Mrs. Williams thought of something, pulled Alice and stood in front of a curtain without any explanation.

"There is definitely no problem with the degree, but there are some problems with other parts."

The green curtain was pulled back, and what came into view was a vision test form.

She was familiar with this thing, Alice took off her glasses and began to test her eyesight.

"this?"

Alice shook her head.

"what about this?"

Alice shook her head again.

"What about this one?" Mrs. Williams looked clear, the wand had already moved to the first row.

Under Carrie's disbelieving gaze, Alice shook her head again.

"Are you blind?"

"..." Alice was speechless, "Actually, I can see those letters except for the last few rows."

"Then why are you shaking your head?"

Alice opened her mouth, but she couldn't say the reason.

"It's not that she can't see the letters, it's that she can't see my wand." Mrs. Williams explained for Alice with a smile, "Her astigmatism is a little more serious than myopia."

"Although the glasses can automatically adjust according to vision, they only display the degree of myopia, but not astigmatism."

Alice pinched Carrie hard, and laughed when she wanted to, and it was even more irritating to look at a suppressed smile.

"Hiss, it hurts, it hurts, hahahaha." Carrie bent down, "No, why do I think you are so funny today?"

Alice was too angry to speak.

Mrs. Williams had seen the big scene. She packed the two glasses and told Alice without changing her expression: "You must pay attention to your eyes. Don't study or read at night."
