Wherever the Weasleys are, there is always a lively atmosphere and loud laughter. Their family has such a special magic, no wonder Harry always likes to run to the Weasleys.

Now they were standing in front of the cauldron shop, and Fred and George were trying to sneak a fresh slug into the nape of Percy's neck when Mrs Weasley's keen eyes spotted her, glaring at the twins with her hands on her hips.Ron had come out from under Harry's Invisibility Cloak (because Mrs. Weasley couldn't help calling him by name to confirm his and Harry's locations), and they stood side by side, two with great interest It was a big deal to see the excitement, and they were quietly applauding Fred and George.

Dorothy trotted past, her arrival diverting their attention - not just them, in fact, all the Weasley children were looking at her.They all looked at her new broom, and Qi Qi exclaimed.

"It's the Nimbus 2000!" said Fred, squeezing in front of her to get a closer look at the latest broomstick. "Look, what a sleek look, what a beautiful design! We just passed yours." When you were just looking at it in the window, and now you have it, obviously, you have a good mother, and she knows how to love her child and buy her a Nimbus 2000-"

"Yes, yes." His brother George nodded repeatedly, stroking the broomstick of Nimbus 2000, and reading in a tone of twists and turns, and the two began to sing in harmony, "Is there anyone who is like an angel?" Will a mother reject her cherubic child? When her child wants a new broomstick, of course she will give it to her child as a gift. Even if she doesn't give it in person, she will definitely buy it back secretly Put it on the child's bedside, and when the child wakes up the next day, it will..."

"You're sure to find yourself daydreaming," said Mrs. Weasley sternly. "Shut up, Fred and George, if I remember correctly, you were named to the Gryffindor Quidditch team last year." I already bought brooms for the two of you, last year's latest model, and their functions will never be outdated after one year. Desires are endless. You must learn to restrain yourself from blindly chasing luxury life. Heart, that won't do your lives any good - Percy didn't give me a broomstick!"

"What can Percy do with a broomstick?" Fred asked George, with very real doubt on his face.

"Maybe it's a competition with the Bludger to recite the contents of the history of magic." George replied, with a kind of pretending to be deep, "The Bludger may have never suffered such a crime in its life, maybe it will suffer from it from now on." When you get PTSD, you hide from anyone you see."

All the children, except Percy, who looked very upset, burst out laughing.Even Mrs. Weasley couldn't help showing a little smile, and slapped her two sons on the back reproachfully several times, angrily and amusingly.

Dorothy also smiled happily. She turned her head inadvertently and found that the parents who came with her had left at some time. My brother was walking this way, holding a few books that looked big and heavy, obviously not textbooks - the textbooks had been bought by my mother just now, and then she took her mother to Quidditch Isaac said that he would stay in the bookstore for a while and buy a few books he wanted to read.

It seems that he has already purchased.Dorothy beckoned to him, and took a look at the book in his hand after her brother approached, and couldn't help but be speechless: ""Hundred Rare Spells and Their Effects"? Sounds boring... How long have you been in the bookshop? My mother and I have returned from the Quidditch boutique, and here is my new broom."

Although she was not as happy as she imagined when she got the broom, she still showed her broom to her brother at this moment, smiling beautifully and lightly.

Isaac answered her previous question first, saying: "I saw Professor McGonagall in the bookstore, and I had a chat with her. There are two books she recommended for me to choose."

"Professor McGonagall? She came to Diagon Alley to do some shopping?" Dorothy asked. Which new Muggle family of the year is shopping in Diagon Alley?"

"Well, a freshman surnamed Granger bought ten introductory books on magic at one go in addition to textbooks in the bookstore, including the book "Hogwarts, A School History" that no one borrowed in the school library. , probably a Ravenclaw." Isaac said simply, his eyes fell on his sister's broom, he paused, and asked directly, "Are you going to join the Gryffindor Quidditch team? "

"Isn't it possible?" Dorothy asked, with a little eagerness in her words, "I flew quite well in flying lessons, and Mrs. Hooch said I was very talented, and I could try for Quidditch Team... Although I had a serious illness when I was young, my parents said that I lost half of my life at the time, and I have not been in good health since then. But it has been several years, and I feel that I am fine, should I? I am not I don’t get sick often, and I’m pretty healthy. My parents are a little nervous, especially my mother. She thinks I’ve been a glass person since then. Although I can understand her nervousness, she’s too exaggerated. It’s been a long time since I got sick. It's been a few years."

Harry seemed to stop breathing when Dorothy mentioned her illness.Things that were almost forgotten re-entered his mind, and he remembered the conversation he overheard, and his heart seemed to be squeezed hard by someone.

He didn't tell anyone what he'd heard, not even Ron.He instinctively felt that if these things were not even known to his cousins, then it should need to be kept secret, although he didn't know the reason, but he chose to maintain the status quo cautiously.

"Gryffindor's Seeker Gary Mike graduated last year, and this year the team has only one vacant position. Although theoretically every position can participate in the selection, but the Gryffindor team has not been as strong as it is now for a long time After that, everyone is very strong, they are only one talented seeker away from the golden dream team, and Mike before was too ordinary." Isaac said casually, although he is not interested in the sport of Quidditch. I don't care about enthusiasm, but the news that I said casually is still very valuable, "You almost only have this one chance, and besides..."

He paused, looked at his sister, and frowned slightly.

"Don't take that illness too lightly, Dorothy," he said. "For wizards, ailments are easy to deal with. Spells, potions, magical creatures, there are many ways to restore you. Health. If even Dad can’t solve it in time, it means that you are really seriously ill. It seems that there is nothing wrong now, but it doesn’t mean that there is really nothing. A senior official of the Gua government, she has been taking strict care of you in addition to her busy work, and she is not on the same level of care as she is for me and Harry. This is something that should be taken seriously. There may be something behind Something we don't know about."

As expected of his cousin, without knowing the truth, he still thought of these things only by reasoning.Harry nodded violently in his heart, Dorothy was startled and frowned slightly.

"Mom and Dad are respectful and honest to us." She said a little hesitantly, "Since they didn't say anything, it shouldn't have much to do with it?"

"It may also be too related, so I can't say it easily." Isaac said casually, raised his hand and adjusted the position of the monocle he was wearing, "But this is just my guess after all, no need Too concerned."

All right.Dorothy shrugged. She subconsciously didn't want to continue the conversation on this matter, so she ended the topic politely, looked around, and said after she still didn't find her parents: "Want to go shopping together, Isaac Aunt Molly is taking them to buy books, we've already been there, and you've even just come back from there."

"Okay, today's Diagon Alley is very interesting." Isaac said, "Want to go together, Harry? It's a rare opportunity."

That's right, the first time he came to Diagon Alley was last year when Isaac Dorothy went to school together, this is only the second time this year, and he really wants to spend more time here.Harry was very moved, and Ron was not very interested in going to the bookstore. Although he was the one in his family who entered school this year, he preferred to walk around Diagon Alley with Harry.

So the Smith brothers and sisters took Harry and Ron to part with the Weasley family (remember to gather at the Leaky Cauldron after coming out of the robe shop, you four! Mrs. Weasley said), and strolled comfortably on the streets of Diagon Alley , taking care not to let Harry be found.All kinds of lively voices came from the shops on the left and right, and Harry was very happy to see them all.

"I named the owl I got for my birthday Hedwig." Harry said to Ron as they passed the owl shop, "Hagrid gave it to me—he's the Hogwarts gamekeeper, Goji." Yes, when I was young, I thought he was three or four people tall. He seemed a little clumsy, but he was very nice, we saw him when we got to school, and he invited me to drink tea in his cottage after school. Asked if he could bring my friends and he seemed happier than ever."

"Not bad," said Ron, nodding. "He's a nice guy—too tall and clumsy, and anyone walking on stilts tends to fall."

As they walked through the bustling streets, the voices of people around them rushed to them as they passed.The electronic advertising screens on the side of the road were scrolling advertisements for various new products in Diagon Alley. Along the way, Harry saw the promotion of wizard fashion robes, the latest raspberry ice cream, magic cake shop and gift shop, with the participation of magic , the advertisement is also very interesting, Harry watched it with gusto.

"It looks like a Muggle high street," Harry said to Ron. "Of course, there's magic here, but other places, especially these billboards on the street and on the The high street is exactly the same."

"I heard that we learned from them." Ron said, "It's quite attractive, isn't it? I heard from Bill that it wasn't so lively when he was in school, and Diagon Alley has changed a lot in recent years."

Before Harry could answer, the voices of a family passing by had drifted into his ears.

"There are Muggle things everywhere." A slightly arrogant voice said, with a polite mockery in the tone, and the voice was drawn out coldly, "Millison Barnold loves Muggles too much , she seems to think that Muggle things and wizards have to experience and adapt, let all kinds of Muggle things enter our lives, and cooperate with Muggles. Stupid woman, send all the gold Galleons into the pockets of Muggles , she is simply tarnishing the purity and nobility of wizards. The Minister of Magic has been brainwashed by those idiots of the Order of the Phoenix. They are all led by Harold Minchem... Now even people like Sirius Black can As an Auror, the Ministry of Magic seems to be losing its need for existence. If the wizarding organization doesn't think about wizards, why should wizards listen to it?"

This passage also mentioned the two successive ministers of the Ministry of Magic, the Order of the Phoenix, and his godfather.Harry didn't expect that people he met casually on the street would be able to talk about this. He immediately looked over under the Invisibility Cloak, unable to hide his curiosity.

"Keep your voice down, Lucius," said the woman next to him, "I'm not at home right now."

"Father is right." The kid among them has almost exactly the same face as his father, and his pale blond hair is neatly combed behind his head. With the same mocking expression, "I feel like I have come to a garbage dump. Anyone can come here. There are some uneducated fools everywhere. Hogwarts can't be full of people like this, right? It's really disappointing , I just don't want to go. Why can't I go to Durmstrang, papa?"

His father's voice softened a little, and he said with a slightly unpredictable expression: "If everyone thinks that Dumbledore is the greatest wizard in the world, then it is unwise to hold different opinions. Although..."

He paused, did not continue, instead snorted, and said slowly: "I'm afraid Hogwarts will indeed be like this, Draco, be mentally prepared, in this day and age, you may Only unrevealed upstarts like the Weasleys, who are known to be traitors and disgraces among the pure-blood families, would really embrace it."

Ron didn't notice the talking family at first, but the word Weasley made it difficult for him not to notice.He turned his head just in time to hear the line about traitors and disgrace.His face was flushed, and before he could yell angrily, Harry held him back, and Isaac pressed his shoulders, adjusted his monocle, and glanced back at him.

"The villain's jealous face." He said calmly, "It's hard to deal with the two adults on the opposite side."

"Keep the boy's face in mind," suggested Dorothy, "and greet his father sometime when we get back to school."

The idea sounded tempting, and seemed more constructive than arguing about it in the past.So Ron endured it for a while, but he was still a little uneasy, and muttered angrily: "I think this is a garbage dump, and everyone is garbage, so what are they who appear here and are not garbage? Bugs rolling in the garbage dump? "

Not a bad description.Dorothy nodded appreciatively, and glanced at her brother at the same time.

"Why are you wearing a monocle together, Isaac? You can't see our cousin with it on."

They continued to walk forward, and Isaac said casually: "The world seen through these glasses is quite interesting, and there are more than one people who came to Diagon Alley to hide their identities."

"There are many people who can hide and walk in such a busy street?" Dorothy said incredulously.

Isaac handed his monocle to his sister, and Dorothy took it, put it on her left face, looked around, and couldn't help being taken aback.

She took a few careful glances, then moved closer to her brother in a daze, and asked in a low voice: "Why do people deliberately blur their faces to come to Diagon Alley? Is that a kind of magic spell? I see them through the glasses The face is changing... Is there any need? This is just a commercial street for shopping."

"This is not something we can know." Isaac shook his head and said calmly, "There must be secrets behind everything that needs to be covered up. As for what these secrets are, only they know. I hope It has nothing to do with who we know."

Regrettably, Isaac's prayer was not fulfilled.Eli stood by the window on the fifth floor of the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix. He also wore a monocle developed by him on his left eye. Over the past ten years, more reverse and dispelling spells have been attached to the monocle. Through It can see some secrets that are hidden on the surface, and more truths require them to dig deeper and explore by themselves.

"Our guess is correct." Beside him, James folded his arms, stared out of the window with a serious face, and sighed heavily.

"When I came back from Albania last month, I really felt being watched... the same is true of Arthur traveling in Australia. In the past two years, we have traveled to eleven countries, at least seven of which are in the country. They all discovered that there is an unknown mysterious force controlling the magic world, and their ways are similar. There is someone who is secretly manipulating the world magic world. Grindelwald, who did this last time, is now imprisoned in New York. Montgard, what about this time? Who is it again? Could it be someone we are familiar with? He has been quiet for so long that even most of us have let our guard down."

"We'll know the answer soon." Eli said softly, staring out the window with long-distance eyes.

"Frequent activities in Diagon Alley, secret actions in the Ministry of Magic, no matter who he is, he is now ready, coming here, intending to officially enter the stage of the British magic world, and perform for us. "
