The days passed by, and I came to the last day of summer vacation.
Early early in the morning, Ivan and Harry just went downstairs and saw the entire Weasley family drilled out of the fireplace. The servants are as if they have just returned from Egypt. They are dressed in normal wizard(s) robe and traditional Egyptian clothing. People are incredibly strange.
Mrs. Weasley stepped forward and hugged the two. Mr. Weasley went to the bar and booked a few rooms. They will spend the night in the broken cauldron tonight.
After a few minutes, the old Tom brought breakfast.
Everyone was eating breakfast happily. Percy pretended to show his Head Boy badge to Ivan and Harry, and shook hands with the two one by one.
Fred and George did not let him talk for too long. They imitated the gesture of Percy and shook hands with the two, making them laugh.
Mrs. Weasley sternly stopped this behavior, and she could see that she was proud of Percy.
The topic was revisited on the trip to Egypt. the entire Weasley family told them all the things they had learned during the trip.
Next, Ron showed Ivan and Harry his new wand(s): fourteen inches long, wicker wood, and the essence is unicorn tail hair. As for Ginny, as before, the little girl blushed unconsciously when she saw Harry, but it was obviously much stronger than last semester, at least it would not knock anything down.
After everyone finished eating, Hermione and her parents also arrived at the broken cauldron.
Hermione is wearing a sky blue dress, wearing a light yellow dome straw hat, her skin is tanned to a healthy wheat color, with a little playfulness in elegance, she looks full of sunshine and vitality, she is happy Say hello to everyone.
A few people chatted for a while. Mr. and Mrs. Granger had to leave early because there was something to do. They asked Hermione to take care of Mr. and Mrs. Weasley and left all the things she needed to use in Hogwarts. She also lived in the broken tonight. bar.
Wait to move apart, Harry and Ron began to discuss the matter of blowing up his aunt; Hermione took out a thick stack of parchment paper to Ivan, which she wrote in combination with what she saw and heard in France article.
"I heard the whole story from my dad. Your Aunt Marge floated on the ceiling for two hours." Ron laughed awkwardly. He thought it sounds cool to blow up his aunt.
"There is nothing funny about this, Ron." Hermione said sharply. "To be honest, I didn't fire Harry. I'm really surprised."
"It ’s the same with me, you do n’t know me and ..." Harry glanced at Ivan and remembered that he wanted to keep it secret that he could become a cat. "In short, I forgot about the expulsion, I thought I was going to be arrested. Ron, Mr. Weasley do n’t know why Fudge let me go, does he know? "
"It ’s probably because of you, is n’t it?" Ron shrugged his shoulders and still giggled, "The famous Harry Potter or something, if I blow up my aunt, the Ministry of Magic will definitely not let go Pass me. Listen, they will dig me out first, my mother will kill me. "
"I think Mrs. Weasley is completely correct. You two are too smug. You should learn from Ivan, he will not ..."
"I already knew it was wrong, Hermione! I just lost control for a while." Seeing that Hermione was a little angry, Harry hurriedly changed the topic, "Where are we going next?"
"I think we should go to the pet store first." Hermione checked her wallet and said, "My birthday is in September. My mom and my dad gave me some money to buy myself a birthday gift in advance. I want an owl. "
"That's right, I also want to send Scabbers for inspection, I think Egypt is not suitable for it." Ron took Scabbers out of his pocket.
The eyes of Ivan's moved from the parchment paper to the small mouse. Scabbers looked thinner than before, its beard pulled down obviously, and its fur was not as bright as before.
"Ron, to me, your mouse just lacks exercise."
The corner of Ivan's's mouth is slightly upturned. The guy Pettigrew Peter must have been frightened by the matter of Sirius Black jailbreaking.
"Sports ?!" Ron looked at Ivan suspiciously.
"Yes, I suggest Hermione buy a cat so she can help you."
"Don't listen to him, Hermione!" Ron subconsciously put the small mouse into his pocket. "Banban is already pitiful enough, let's find a pet shop."
"There is a magical creature shop over there!" After more than two weeks of strolling, Harry is now familiar with Diagon Alley, "You can see if you can buy something for Scabbers there, Hermione can also be bought there To an owl or a cat. "
"Don't buy a cat to scare Scabbers!" Ron reassured again.
Four people crossed the street and came to the shop called the Magic Zoo.
There is not much space in the shop, and every inch of the wall is hung with a cage. The little creatures in the cage are making various sounds, smelly and noisy.
"Hello, this is my mouse!" Ron took a step forward and said to witch(es) standing behind the counter, "Can you see what is going on? Since I brought it back from Egypt, It has always been a bit bad. "
"Put it on the counter." witch(es) said while pulling out a pair of heavy black glasses from her pocket to check Scabbers.
"Hum!" Then witch(es) picked up Scabbers, "How old is this mouse?"
"I do n’t know," Ron said, "It ’s very old, it turned out to be my brother."
"What can it do?" witch(es) carefully examined Scabbers.
"Oh ..." Ron doesn't know how to answer, the actual situation is that Scabbers has never shown a little interesting ability.
witch(es)'s eyes turned from Scabbers's ripped ears to its front paws, where there was one toe missing, and there was a grunt in her mouth.
"It has suffered a lot, this mouse only."
"When Percy gave it to me, it was like this." Ron said to defend himself.
Harry nodded. Since he knew Ron, this mouse is like this. He usually shows no abnormalities except sleep and eat and eat and sleep.
"An ordinary house rat or garden rat like this, you do n’t expect it to live more than three years." witch(es) pointed to the black mouse in the cage next to his finger and said, "Well, if you want to find more durable Animal, you might like one of them. "
Ivan sneered at her statement completely. The Scabbers seems to be really a mouse. If he tells the other party, this mouse, who she decides can't live for three years, has lived in Ron's house for more than ten years and will be scared to cry.
"Okay, if you do n’t want to change it, you can try this potion." witch(es) continued, she took a small red bottle from under the counter.
"How much ..." Ron's hadn't finished speaking. They saw a huge **** jump from the top cage.
Several people looked at this huge **** creature in front of their eyes, this is a **** cat with thick and sparse hair. The cat looks a little weird, its legs are slightly curved, its face looks brutal, and it has a strange appearance of being squashed, as if when it once rushed across the wall.
It jumped on the head of Ron, poised forward, and screamed loudly at Scabbers.
"Don't! Crookshanks, don't!" witch(es) exclaimed.
Scabbers slipped out of her hand like a piece of soap, fell to the floor on all fours, and fled towards the door.
"Scabbers!" Ron yelled and followed it to the outside of the store, followed by Harry.
After Scabbers disappeared, Crookshanks suddenly turned his head and looked at Ivan docilely. There was no fierceness before. Perhaps because his Animagus was also a cat, Crookshanks was very close to Ivan He even took the initiative to lick his hand.
This surprised witch(es) behind the counter. She has never seen Crookshanks actively contact a stranger.
"It's really a cute little guy, its fur is quite splendid, isn't it, Ivan?" Hermione also crouched and touched Crookshanks.
The cat was still a bit wary, but immediately accepted Hermione.
"The color is very bright, a bit like a big ball of yarn." Ivan looked at it, and the cat looked really ugly.
"I decided!" Hermione held Crookshanks in his arms and stood up suddenly.
"Decide what?" Ivan looked at each other in surprise, with a bad hunch in her heart.
"Did you ask me to buy a cat, I decided to buy it!" Hermione pointed at Crookshanks.
"Buy this cat ?! If you do this, Ron will definitely kill me." Ivan's mouth twitched with a wry smile.
