The Alchemist of Harry Potter

"You speak first."

"You first."

"Well, I think it's kind of silly for us to follow Katrina like that."

The two followed Katrina for a while in Diagon Alley. Albert looked at the girl standing in front of the window of the Lishen Bookstore not far away, and turned to Isobel beside him.

"I think so too." Isobel was relieved to see that his sister was fine.

"Then... let's go."

With that said, Albert walked towards the Lihen Bookstore.

"Why are you here?"

Hearing the voice, Katrina turned her head to look at a man and a woman who were approaching, and the expression on her face suddenly became a little unnatural.

"Uh, I just forgot to tell you, I already have one." Albert raised his finger and pointed to the big iron cage in front of the bookstore window, which contained about a hundred copies, and said to Katrina, "Last semester, Hagrid gave me one."

The expression on the face of the bookstore manager who was wearing thick gloves and holding two books in his hands suddenly changed. He was bitten by those who had just tried to get the books from the iron cage.

"Give me the book."

Albert took over from the bookstore manager, who was still struggling, and swiped his finger on the spine of the book, instantly making the book quiet.

When the manager saw this scene, his whole body became spartan in an instant, and he stood there stupidly, watching Albert pass the uniform to Katrina, and hand him the book list sent by the school.

"Two other books." Albert's voice sounded in the bookstore manager's ear.

"How... did you do it? This has been making a lot of trouble. I've been bitten nine times this morning." The bookstore manager said with a sad face.

"You should write and ask the professor who protects magical creatures for the students to book this book." Albert looked at the mourning bookstore manager speechlessly and reminded: "The other party must have a way to subdue these people. The monster book that bites people will definitely be willing to tell you what to do."

"Oh, it seems... That's right." The bookstore manager was stunned for a moment, his expression was very embarrassing, because Albert made too much sense.

"You can easily subdue these books by stroking the spine with your fingers." Albert reminded kindly, "Remember to get a rope and tie the book up first, and it will return to its original shape after a while."

Soon after, the three walked out of Lihen Bookstore under the grateful eyes of the bookstore manager.

"I dare say, trying to subdue them all the way he does would be hard enough."

Before Albert left the Lihen Bookstore, he glanced at the iron cage. There were still a lot of them in it. It would be so easy to think about all the uniforms.

"Mrs. Malkin's robe shop seems to be on sale, does any of you need to buy a new robe?" Isobel said, looking at Katrina.

"No, I'll go to the pharmacy to refill the herbs later, and then I'll go buy some quills, ink and parchment. I'm pretty much the same here." Katrina really didn't want to walk with the two of them. She felt like she was superfluous. of.

"I need to buy some nuts for my owl at the Ella Owl store." Albert thought for a while, then continued: "However, we can drop by the Florin's cold drink shop to buy ice cream, I'll treat you."

As the three passed by, they saw Harry Potter talking to Store Manager Florin, the savior who seemed to be doing his holiday homework here a lot.

"What flavor do you want?" Florin asked gently.

"chocolate."

Katrina leaned over to the freezer and picked one she liked.

"Me too."

"Then three ice creams with chocolate flavors." Albert just reached out and took money from his pocket, and when he was about to pay, he heard Harry Potter's voice in his ear.

"Albert."

In fact, after seeing the three of them coming, Harry hesitated for a long time before speaking.

"Is something wrong, Potter?" Albert asked sideways.

"That...you know what's ominous?" Harry asked hesitantly.

"Ominous?" Albert raised his eyebrows slightly and asked back, "Are you referring to the prediction of your own death from the crystal ball?"

"Do not,

I met a black dog. "

"Oh, a black dog? That's certainly not ominous, it's your own overthinking."

It wasn't hard for Albert to guess who the black dog was, and Blake probably didn't expect that he would scare Harry.

"Of course, if you think it's death and you worry about it all day, maybe you'll frighten yourself to death one day." Looking at Harry's gradually widening mouth, Albert reminded kindly, "Frighten yourself. It's the scariest thing because you think that's what it is, not what it is."

"I think Mr. Anderson has a point."

Manager Florin handed the ice cream to the three of them and said to Harry, "Most so-called fortune-tellers and prophets are actually liars, because very few wizards have the ability to predict the future."

Katrina ate ice cream and seemed very happy, looking at Albert as if to say: This is a liar.

Albert wasn't embarrassed at all, he wasn't a liar, and he was thick-skinned enough to ignore Katrina's gaze.

He shrugged, and after saying goodbye to Harry, he headed over to the Ella Owl Store, which was a store that sold owls, where Albert bought Sheila's owl nuts.

After half an hour, the three people needed to buy everything quickly. Albert asked the two girls beside him, "Are you still going to stroll around Diagon Alley?"

"And you?"

Isobel looked at her sister, if Katrina wanted to stay, she would stay with her and go home together.

"Forget it, let's go back!"

Katrina obviously didn't want to stay here any longer. She knew that if she expressed her desire to stay and stroll around Diagon Alley, the other two would definitely stay with her. She was fed up with the hatred being caught between them. feeling.

After sending the McDoug sisters home, Albert leaves the wizarding world through the Leaky Cauldron.

Standing alone on a lively street, there is always an inexplicable sense of unreality.

Albert found a nearby coffee shop, ordered a cappuccino, and waited here for Herb to come and pick him up.

Without letting him wait too long, Herb appeared at the door of the coffee shop.

"How about France?"

"Learn a lot of useful things, and..." Albert motioned for Herb to look at the ring on his left finger.

"The style is a bit ordinary." Herb wanted to complain about his son's vision.

"Mr. Lemay gave us the wedding ring. It is a magic ring made by goblins. It will never get dirty or rust." Albert explained casually.

"No?" Herb asked, tilting his head.

"No more." Albert looked at Herb speechlessly.

"I thought I could use some powerful magic through that ring." Herb looked a little disappointed, but he also knew the meaning of the ring.

"By the way, this is for you." He threw a package to Albert, which contained a mobile phone.

"I can't use this thing over there!" Albert looked at the old mobile phone and couldn't help asking, "How much is this thing?"

"It's not expensive!" Herb asked suspiciously, "Can't you play this stuff over there?"

"I can't use it, I can't use the electronic items. Anyway, they will interfere with each other. I remember saying it before." Albert handed the phone to Herb and said, "Give it to Nia!"

"Oh fine!"

Herb put away the phone, started the engine, and chatted with Albert while driving.

"I have investigated the matter you mentioned. The situation in the colony is not bad. As for that country, it is very 'poor' now, but as you said, there are indeed many people in that country."

"This is a fast lane, if you want, join in, at least we won't have to worry about money in the future." Albert reminded: "Money will only become more and more worthless. , it is not a precious metal like the wizard's Galleon, and it is not easy to depreciate."

"Do you really plan to stay in the wizarding world?" Herb frowned deeply, "What do you plan to do with these industries in the future? I believe you may be able to fulfill your original wish and build a business empire."

"Isn't there Nia?" Albert said without hesitation: "Also, you can have another son, you are both young anyway."

"No, we're not young anymore, Nia doesn't have the skills you have." Herb shook his head and said, not talking about this matter. He thought that Albert would probably have a way to solve these problems.

Money, this stuff, has never been considered too little.
