Chapter 182 Countdown
"You want to use Dobby to bring it here to me?"
The mind and body suddenly remembered Fan Lin from behind, and a familiar hand pressed on his head.
"Actually, you can choose to ask Dobby to bring my luggage over. You know, we can't use wands outside the school, at least in front of Muggles, but Dobby can, which will save me and my dad on the way. Mom is so tired."
"Hermione!" Harry exclaimed, and Fan Lin quickly turned his head. Hermione was standing behind him wearing Muggle clothes and smiling, while Hermione's parents were talking to Tom, the owner of the Leaky Cauldron. , it seems that Hermione will spend the remaining two days here.
"When did you arrive!" Fan Lin was so surprised that he stood up immediately. Then he found that he seemed to be a little too excited. He and Hermione looked at each other, and then the two of them blushed inexplicably.
"Just... just now." Hermione said as she put her satchel on Fan Lin's chair.
"That's it..." Fan Lin smiled sheepishly. He was a little embarrassed, and he was embarrassed every day.
"Actually, you can send me a letter or something, or call me. You know my home phone number."
"Actually, I called you, and it was Mr. Al who answered the phone. He told me you were at the Leaky Cauldron, and I came straight here..." Hermione said, patting herself. pocket.
"You know, I don't own an owl. I was planning to go to the pet shop in Diagon Alley to buy a pet. My parents gave me a large sum of gold galleons for this, and they asked me to buy some more. Appropriate clothes, but..."
Hermione came over and said secretly, "The clothes in the wizarding world are really too..."
"It's really ugly..." Fan Lin nodded and confirmed. There were strange pumpkins or unknown creature decorations, and some clothes even looked like various leathers were sewn together like that.
"Actually, I only plan to make some new robes, and we can spend the rest of the money at Flourish and Blotts Bookstore."
"Okay..." Fan Lin nodded, "I will list the books I have bought for you before going to Diagon Alley later to avoid waste. In fact, I bought fifty books in one go this time."
Hermione thought for a moment, "Hmm... Okay, then I'll buy a few less books."
Harry listened with horror, and he couldn't help but shudder.
"Oh, Harry..." Hermione exclaimed, "When did you come and the Dursleys released you?"
"I..." Harry was speechless for a while. He was the first to spot Hermione, and he even said hello to her.
"Sorry..." Hermione's face turned red, "You know, we were discussing some things..."
"It's okay, Hermione..." Harry was speechless, "I've been here for two weeks, and I'm going back to Hogwarts tomorrow..."
"Uh..." Hermione lowered her head, which was embarrassing.
"Granger, what are you busy with?" Mrs. Granger's voice came from a distance. They had already communicated with Tom about which room Hermione would stay in tonight. Fan Lin saw that Tom was delivering Hermione's luggage. Go upstairs.
"Hello, Mr. Granger, and Mrs. Granger, nice to meet you." Fan Lin said hello quickly, and so did Harry.
"Oh, it's Xiao Fanlin and Harry!" Mr. Granger smiled, "I didn't even see you during the holidays last semester, Fanlin!"
"Actually, I went to China, Mr. Granger." Fan Lin responded politely.
"That's right. How about it? Is China fun?" Mr. Granger seemed to be very interested in China.
"Uh..." Fan Lin was speechless for a moment. He spent most of his time in China in the Nine Immortals Academy, and the rest lay in his grandmother's house like a dead person.
"Dad, maybe we can experience it ourselves if we have a chance!" Hermione said, knowing that Fan Lin couldn't tell because he had been unconscious for so long.
"Well, you can consider it." Mr. Granger touched his chin, while Mrs. Granger was helping Hermione arrange her hair. She was telling Hermione something, which made Harry and Fanlin very envious.
Finally, when the three little wizards sent the Grangers outside the door, Hermione breathed a sigh of relief.
"No way, my mother always feels that I can't take care of myself." Hermione spread her hands.
"No, I think it's great." Fan Lin said, and Harry nodded, which made Hermione feel a little embarrassed.
"By the way, when will Ron come?" Hermione asked. Ron was the only one among them who hadn't arrived yet.
"He said he would arrive early tomorrow morning. You know, there are many Weasleys, and they all go to Hogwarts, and the floo network here is not that easy to use..."
Fan Lin pointed at the fireplace in the bar, which was full of black ashes. Even a wizard who didn't care would probably not use that fireplace. After all, burying himself in the ashes would look like he had a brain problem. Same.
"Okay." Hermione nodded, "Don't worry about Ron, let's go to Diagon Alley. I can't wait to have a pet. I want a beautiful owl, this would be nice."
"We can also have some ice cream." Harry nodded. He really liked going to Diagon Alley.
Several people excitedly went to Diagon Alley through the movable brick wall. What greeted them was a strong magical atmosphere, various magical roads, and the world's top magic broom rocket crossbow that Harry was most looking forward to. Comet finally surpassed the Nimbus series, at least in a few years.
However, Nimbus is currently developing a new Nimbus series product, Nimbus 000, but it will take a few years to surpass the rocket crossbow. It is not an easy thing to do.
In fact, Comet Company has not launched a new flying broom for several consecutive years. On the one hand, it is because of the rise of Nimbus, and on the other hand, they are researching a flying broom that can completely surpass Nimbus.
A few years of time are worth it. The advent of the rocket crossbow instantly raised the standard of flying brooms to many levels, and it immediately replaced Nimbus's dominance in the flying broom world.
The comprehensive surpassing also prompted the rocket crossbow to become the new generation of darlings in the world Quidditch arena. The Irish team customized seven rocket crossbows at the first time. This must be replaced. After all, the tower is faster and more stable. Although the rocket crossbow is also in danger of falling apart when it reaches the maximum speed, who cares? That requires a long-term flight to produce the consequences.
The price of the rocket crossbow is also frighteningly expensive. A wand costs only a dozen or twenty gold galleons due to material problems, while a rocket crossbow costs a full 5,000 gold galleons. This forced Harry to give up the idea of buying it. After all, he still has to go to school, and the gold galleons left by his parents are not as rich as he imagined, at least such luxury is impossible. (To be continued)
