Chapter 206 A Proud Meow
Camping without magic is of course very interesting, especially after more and more people come here.
The six-bedroom, twelve-person tent that Ron had bought was almost full.
Although avoiding the use of magic, the wizarding world brings them much joy.
Ron caught a bunch of trembling Grindylows, and these small lake monsters with teeth and claws were tied to the rope, and then they were forced to do the work of the fisherman's bird cormorant (lúcí) with mournful faces.
This guy who looks like a water monkey in the water can swim faster than them, and his strength is scary. Grindylow, who has never seen the world, directly regards Ron as their new natural enemy. Thank him When Sha Zhien was working, he actually worked quite hard.
However, this large-scale camping did not catch the fish they wanted to catch, but a few guys with bad intentions followed the news released by Ron through various channels and came here.
In the eyes of many dark wizards, they believed that kidnapping this guy would definitely get him an unusually rich amount of Galleons, even though they didn't believe in the fighting power of a 13-year-old wizard. While shopping in Diagon Alley, Luo En's arrogance made the owner smile. It's not easy to meet such a big customer.
After camping for half a month, in the last week of August, they packed their tents contentedly. With the friendly help of a few Aurors who had received the news and came to take over the Dark Wizard, they used the Portkey to return directly to the camp. London.
Half of the thieves caught by Ron carried bounties on their backs, but the sum was not much, only a little over a thousand Galleons, but they also directly touched the expenses of this camping and could pay for it by the way. Deposit from Rita Skeeter.
These guys with unclean hands and even blood stains were all caught by the alchemy trap produced by Nicolas May. After being starved by Ron for a week, their eyes were green when they saw The dragon dung can go up and eat two mouthfuls to fill the stomach, and it looks terrifyingly miserable.
"Have you had fun, kids?"
In the Leaky Cauldron, their parents were there, Cho Chang's parents, Seid's parents, the Weasleys, the Grangers, and even Neville's grandmother.
The entrance of a group of people made the lobby of the Leaky Cauldron become crowded, and after a relaxed chat, they entered the bustling Diagon Alley.
"Every time I come to the wizarding world, I feel incredible."
Mr. Granger sighed with envy. Although he was a Muggle, he also yearned for a magical life. It was actually a very good thing for him that his daughter could become a witch.
"So come to our house as a guest when you have time, Wendell, I remember you have vacations on weekends, right, come to our house and sit down, you are always welcome."
Mrs. Weasley walked around Diagon Alley with Hermione's mother, while Mr. Weasley sat outside the open-air bar with Hermione's father and chatted about many things.
The children don't need their company either. Isn't this kind of worry-free thing a good thing to make them happy after becoming parents?
"Hey! Ron, look!"
"It's a new broom!"
Harry, who was about to go to the Lihen Bookstore to buy books, rushed to the window of the Quidditch boutique, and he padded his feet so that his gaze could pass over the children in the front, who were eagerly staring at him. With a brand new broom inside.
"Firebolt, it's really pretty, how many should I buy for fun?"
Ron didn't have high requirements for a broom, even if it was a Firebolt, the performance he displayed while riding the Nimbus 2001 was completely comparable to this broom.
"Okay, Ginny's sure to like it."
Harry didn't even bother to look at the price above. After exiting the crowd, he opened the door and walked into the shop, while Ron and Hermione walked to the Lihen Bookstore beside it.
"A Hogwarts student again?"
After they entered the store, a very tired clerk drooped his head weakly. After seeing Ron and Hermione nodding, he put on a dragon leather glove, and then took out a wooden stick.
"I've had enough of these books."
He opened a cage covered with black cloth, and suddenly, a loud noise came from the cage.
There are at least fifty books with teeth, two small eyes, and even a forked tongue hanging from them. They are constantly tearing and tearing in the cage with their big mouths open, and two of them are biting. Got the third one and tried to tear it to shreds.
"Damn!"
The clerk put a stick into the cage and beat vigorously, finally separating the dishonest books.
"Two books, right?" With a mournful face, he was about to reach in and grab two books. Judging by the hesitation on his face, he guessed that he had been bitten by this book a lot before that.
"Uh, do you want to help?"
"This." The clerk looked at Ron hesitantly, and asked the customer to help with this kind of thing. "That would be great! I'll give you both a [-]% discount."
"As long as you are willing to take this book yourself, the store manager has also explained that it doesn't matter if you don't make money."
"There are many obstacles."
Ron gently pulled out his wand and waved it, and then the books in this cage seemed to be frozen, and they were directly stuck in the air, motionless.
"How did you do it? We tried it before, but it didn't work that well."
"Forget it, you guys have been of great help!"
"Buy one get one free, [-]% off for you guys."
The clerk reached out his hand into the almost frozen air, and then pulled out two books that he couldn't resist.
"I just happened to get some belts to tie them up. This year's professor really made us troublesome. Thank you very much."
While Ron and the others were picking out the textbooks on their respective lists, Harry also walked out of the Quidditch boutique. Looking at his beaming expression, he must have bought the Firebolt.
"There are only three in the store, and I bought them all. Ron, this is yours."
Harry handed over a slender and exquisite wooden box, with a string of letters written in gilt script spelling out the name of the Firebolt, and even a serial number: 093.
"It is said that there were only a hundred of them in the first batch, and they were almost ordered by the major Quidditch teams. There are only these three in the shop in Diagon Alley, including the one in the window."
"I feel like if it continues like this, it doesn't matter if I play or not?"
"Damn Jin Gallon, always so cute."
"I swear that Wood will tattoo this sentence on his chest. It will take a few months for the follow-up orders to be shipped. The production of the Firebolt is too low. It is said that it uses parts forged by goblins."
"You bought it for everyone on the team?"
"A little money, just treat it as a Christmas present." Harry shrugged, he didn't care at all as he was worth almost a million.
"You need a copy of this too?"
The clerk wiped the sweat from his brow. It took him a long time to bundle up the monster books of these disobedient monsters, but now he is not afraid to meet the little wizard who comes to buy the book again.
"Oh, thanks, but I already have it."
"What a pity," the clerk muttered, but the standard business smile soon returned to his face.
After buying the textbooks, they went to Madam Malkin's robe shop. Now they are growing rapidly, and it is common for them to jump four or five inches a year, and they need new robes every year.
Eating the signature cones from Fortlin's Ice Cream Shop, they walked leisurely in Diagon Alley towards the Yila Owl Shop.
Hermione planned to buy an owl. She wanted to keep a pet of her own for a long time. Although there was Xiaotuanzi and Lukexi, they were all Ron's little pets. I forgot to remind her, and I can't forget it again this year.
"Luke why are you here?"
I saw a lazy big cat lazily lying on the top of an oak barrel, the warm sun shining on him, this big cat like a little leopard was tilting its head and squinting, as if leisurely nap.
"Didn't I tell you to follow Ginny?"
Ron stepped forward and rubbed Luke's head, and then saw a smaller head emerge from under Luke's creaking nest.
"Wow~Wow~"
Luxe howled and explained to Ron.
"It turns out that this little guy got lost, you came to find him?"
"Go back when you find it, so Ginny won't worry."
Lukexi stretched out her paw and patted the display window, causing a group of black mice to scurry in fright.
"Are you hungry?"
"Wow~"
"Okay. This species is indeed not easy to catch outside. These are pet mice."
"Okay, I'll buy you a cage as a snack."
The well-behaved Lukesi jumped onto Ron's shoulder with Ginny's little silver Egyptian cat 'Imini' in her mouth, and then lay on his back, rubbing her small head against Ron's cheek.
As soon as I walked into this pet store, which is not far from the Yila Owl Store, a bad smell came from inside. This noisy and messy place is indeed a bit different from the Owl Store, although the Owl Store is also quite noisy. , but there is no such a mess, and there is no such a strange smell, and the owls inside have been cleaned up.
This shop is small, and the walls are densely covered with cages, all kinds of strange things are making harsh sounds, and they all seem very dissatisfied with being locked in such a large space.
"Wow!"
Lukexi glanced at the cat, and then let out a threatening roar, and the chaotic pet shop was suddenly silent.
The two purple toads who were eating the dead blowflies were immediately wiped away with their short hands, and the two purple toads, whose stomachs were swollen from suffocation, rolled towards the corner with all their strength.
The fat rabbit, which was making a constant "popping" sound and changing back and forth between the hat and the body, also covered its ears and lay on the ground, shaking its body tremblingly. With the shaking of its tail, a small A small black bean fell out from under his tail.
But the most frightening thing was the black rats in the big cage. Their scalps were already numb from Lukexi's sight, and they no longer wanted to use their tails as springs to hop around and play. They were so frightened that they almost rolled their eyes.
"Wouldn't it be more spectacular if I kept a Cerebellar Axe?"
Ron rubbed Lukexi's little head, then waved to the stiff-faced clerk.
"Please bring me a basket of these black mice."
"A basket?" The witch with thick black glasses blinked, but she didn't realize it for a while.
"Buy some snacks. Lukexi really likes these black mice. I haven't eaten them before. I want to try them."
"."
"Ah, here." The witch glanced at the group of rats that were twitching in the cage, and then said in a low voice: "They are usually kept as pets."
"But cats eat mice, isn't that justified?"
"Okay, that's true." The witch sighed, but soon, her eyes lit up and she began to count: "One five Sickles, and there are 67 in a cage, that's it."
The inhuman conversion between Garon Siko and Nat made the witch start snapping her fingers in anger. A little less would be fine, but a larger number would really cause a headache.
"It's nineteen Galleons and five Sickles in total, just pay nineteen Galleons." After finally finishing the calculation, the witch, who was finally relieved, suddenly became happy, "Do you want me to help you take it home? The owls have been professionally trained and will never steal food."
"Unless you can't help it." Then she quickly added: "Unless you can bear it under normal circumstances, I will feed it in advance."
"Thank you then."
Ron walked to the counter and took out his wallet to pay the bill.
"Do you want some more snacks? I see that there are quite a lot of varieties here. How about rabbits?"
Immediately, the fat rabbit that could only be turned into a hat was so frightened by Ron's words that he urinated directly.
"Luxie?"
Ron, who didn't hear Lukexi's response, turned his head and glanced at him, only to see Lukexi staring straight at the shelf beside the counter, his eyes filled with an expression of admiration but also with a fighting spirit .
With a 'swish', Luke stepped on Ron's shoulders and jumped more than two meters high, and jumped to the top of the dusty wooden shelf in an instant. Only then did Ron notice that there was a ginger kitten.
Compared with Lukexi's one-meter-long body, this fluffy-haired cat, although a circle larger than a domestic cat, can only be regarded as a kitten.
A low grunt sounded, and Lukexi stretched his body, looking down at the kitten who dared to meet his gaze.
Although under Lukexi's threat, the cat didn't dare to move, but the cat didn't urinate like other animals with its tail between its legs.
Some hoarse meows came out of his mouth, and this was not a provocative cry, but a rational conversation with Lukexi.
'By force doesn't solve everything, we can sit down and talk. '
'I can recommend you several snacks that taste great. They are crunchy and exciting to bite. '
'It's not good for cats to eat cats. Cat meat is sour and you won't like it. Rats are good, juicy and delicious. '
However, Lukexi didn't answer, he just stared at this little guy more curiously. After a long time, he really hasn't met anyone of the same kind as him.
'You can be my younger brother now. '
Luke raised her head slightly, and looked at the big ginger cat with satisfied eyes.
'Cats can be killed, but not humiliated, as a proud cat'
"Crack~"
Luke slapped the ginger cat several meters from the top of the cabinet.
"Wow!"
With cold eyes sweeping across, Lukexi lit up her fangs, as if asking: Alien cat is amazing?You try to say it again?
The witch, who was dumbfounded below, watched the big ginger cat take off with a whimper and was almost slapped and flew three or four meters away. After the cat rolled [-] degrees in the air, it fell on a stone On the turtle's water tank, Hermione, who was looking at the gem, was taken aback.
"Crookshanks!" the witch screamed, "This will cost more, and if you break your leg, no one will take it."
"."
Ron, who was a little speechless, blinked innocently. He seemed to have seen this story of adding money somewhere before. It sounded familiar.
"how much is it?"
This question was not spoken by Ron, and Hermione walked over happily holding the big ginger cat.
"His hair is brilliant, isn't he beautiful~"
With bright eyes, he hugged the big cat and was hugged by Hermione from behind. The inside of the guy's front legs became more and more obvious, as if he was holding small hands in front of his chest.
It's just that the cat's face is a little bit ugly. Crookshanks' face is flat, as if it has been run over by a car wheel, but it's not as silly and lovable as Garfield's, but it's full of sadness The gloom of Luke Xi's paw was probably taken away, and he is still a little dizzy now.
"It's rare for someone to say that. Crookshanks has been with me for a while. It's a pity that few people have the same thoughts as you."
The Spectacled Witch shrugged her shoulders undisguisedly, "Crookshanks has a bit of cat raccoon blood, he is the smartest little guy in the store."
"But if you are smart, how can you still get beaten?"
Harry, who also ordered a cage of white mice to give Hedwig an extra meal, glanced at Crookshanks when he was paying. His words made him flick his tail like a bottle brush, and his beard trembled violently. .
"Probably Luxy got used to talking with her paws."
Ron's shoulders sank, Luxy jumped off the cabinet, and then obediently lay on Ron's back, sticking out his barbed tongue and licking the claws sticking out .
"Wow~"
Luxi, who agreed with Ron's words, nodded, his eyes still fixed on Crookshanks.
"Luxie likes a smart guy, but not a smart guy who talks nonsense." Ron translated Luke's words, then shook his head.
"I'll charge you a Gallon. Since you like Crookshanks, I hope he can find a good master."
The witch looked at Hermione. If she sold it to Ron, she would have to pay more, but if she sold it to Hermione, it would be considered a half-sell and half-gift.
"Thank you! I will take good care of him." Hermione happily paid a Galleon, then stroked Crookshanks' fluffy fur, "We will be good friends, right, Crookshanks? "
He rubbed Hermione's palm, then squinted his eyes and let out a 'purr purr' sound of enjoyment.
