Hogwarts Card System Chapter 13

Chapter 13 School is about to start~

Ted used pounds to buy some undergarments, daily necessities, notebook pens and ink in the Muggle world.

I also bought some small white mice, locusts and crickets for Ansu, which are his snacks.

At the beginning, Anzu could only eat mealworms, but now the mealworms are not enough to fit between the teeth. It has started eating big bugs and mice!

The bird's beak can peck the skull of a small white mouse at once, and then tear it into several pieces with its claws to eat.

Crow family boss, amazing fighting power.

Ted returns to Diagon Alley and goes to Gringotts with the cash.

"Sir, I want to exchange for Galleons." He raised his head and said to the old goblin behind the tall counter.

The old goblin pushed his glasses indifferently, looked at Ted carefully, "Did you bring the admission letter?"

Ted handed over the acceptance letter.

The old goblin looked at it carefully, and then returned it: "The annual quota is only 50 Galleons at most. How much do you want to exchange?"

"What's the exchange rate, please?" Ted asked.

"Five pounds for a galleon."

Ted points out 250 pounds and hands it to the goblin.

The old goblin was quite surprised. He probably didn't expect this kid in a second-hand robe to come up with so much money. But after all, he had seen the big world, so he didn't say anything, and exchanged a bag of Galleon for him.

Out of Gringotts, Ted weighed the purse in his hand with a smile on his face.

It seems that next year there will be no need to borrow again, and I will try to repay this year's loan.

Debt-free and light-weight~

The day when Hogwarts starts school is getting closer and closer.

Ted had never been so eager to start school.

The anxious feeling is like sitting on the train to go to the girlfriend of a long-distance relationship-can't wait, anxious.

What? I don't have a girlfriend! Oh, forget it, when I didn't say it.

Because the school start date is approaching, the flow of people in Diagon Alley has increased significantly.

Many wizarding parents bring their children to Diagon Alley to purchase school necessities.

Places like Lihen Bookstore and Mrs. Mojin's gown store are constantly crowded almost every day.

Ted's work is also much more busy.

Just a few days before school started, Ted was sorting out books at Lihen Bookstore.

Suddenly heard a voice: "Dad! It's that, that singing little magician! And his raven!"

Ted followed the voice and saw a father and daughter walking in from the door of the bookstore, who turned out to be his "regular customers"!

This...I didn't expect London to be so small!

Ted took the initiative to say hello, "Hello, my name is Ted Epifani, and I am a young wizard who will be enrolled this year. Thank you for appreciating my performance."

The man held out his hand: "Hi, I'm Chris Granger, a dentist. You should know what a dentist does, right?"

Granger? ! Unexpectedly, it was one of the Iron Triangle.

Ted shook hands with Mr. Granger without changing his expression, "Oh, of course, but I would rather not know what a dentist does. I am most afraid of dentists." He looked like a little patient about to lie down on a dental chair.

Granger was amused by Ted, and the laughter was very hearty: "Hahaha, haha, cough~ Sorry, I didn't expect the little wizard to be so humorous."

He pointed to the little girl next to him, "This is my daughter Hermione Granger, who is also a little wizard who will be enrolled this year. She clamored to buy a few more books, so we came again."

Ted: I guessed it. When I saw the little rabbit teeth, I should have thought it belonged to Miss Beaver!

Hermione isn't black, the world isn't shifted too far to accept it.

"Hello, Hermione, you can tell me what books you need. I work part-time here, so I can help you find them..." he said.

Hermione admired this boy who could sing, play the guitar, juggle, and has an obedient raven. After learning that Ted used the two months before school to work in Diagon Alley, Learning magic, it is simply admiration, eyes widened.

Working in the magic shop in Diagon Alley! She looked at Mr. Granger.

Mr. Granger quickly waved his hand: "Oh, no. Hermione, think about Mom, she won't agree."

He and Mrs. Granger were very reluctant to let their daughter go to a boarding magic school. How could it be possible for Hermione to use the short reunion time before school to work.

The reason why I didn't say it was because I was afraid of irritating Ted.

Different from Hermione, Mr. Granger is more concerned about the identity of Ted's orphan.

Such independence and diligence may be inseparable from this aspect.

Such a child is really distressing and admirable.

Ted greeted the clerk and wanted to be a guide for his "friend" to visit Diagon Alley.

Ted introduced the products and styles of each store to the father and daughter, and told some anecdotes.

Mr. Granger listened with gusto, while Hermione asked a lot of questions about Ted's self-taught magic.

She has found someone who can communicate magic.

"This is Ziggs Ziggs Pharmacy, and the potion materials for the prescription are genuine. Mr. Ziggs is a good man, he gave me my first part-time job..."

"If you want to have a pet someday, Fantastic Beasts Pet Shop is the best choice. The animals here are all magical creatures. They need to be stronger, smarter, and good companions. I'm here to help clean up , take care of their diet..."

Finally, Mr. Granger decided to buy Hermione an owl.

Originally, Hermione didn't want to buy an owl. She felt that taking care of an owl might affect her study time.

But Ted told her about the owls — which are so easy to take care of.

And Hermione wants to write letters to Ted to exchange and learn magic after returning home. It is impossible without an owl.

Mr. Granger hopes that after school, his daughter can often write letters to his family.

Finally, in the Yila Owl Shop, Hermione chose a long-eared owl with two "ears" on its head and beautiful patterns on its body, and named it Magic, which means "magic".

In Great Britain, the income of dentists is very high, much higher than that of ordinary doctors.

As far as the British are concerned about sweets, dentists are in particularly high demand.

Both Granger and his wife are dentists and have their own dental clinic. Those lonely pure-blood families in the wizarding world may not be as rich as Hermione's family.

Finally, Ted had a drink with Granger and his daughter at the Leaky Cauldron.

He and Hermione drank butterbeer, of course. Granger was also curious about butterbeer because he had to drive, so he also had a "children's drink". Can't say enough about it.

Time flies, and the last few days have slipped away from my fingers.

Ted quit his part-time job in the past few days, and studied magic in his own small utility room at the Leaky Cauldron with peace of mind.

Just after Granger and his daughter were sent away, Ted's research on psychic powers made some progress.

He has a special "ability"!

Everyone should have had that kind of experience, that is, when doing something you particularly like, you will be very focused, without distractions, and don't want to be disturbed.

Forget time, forget hunger and thirst, forget sorrow, completely immerse yourself in it, and enter a state of selflessness.

There will be a high degree of excitement and a sense of fulfillment in this process.

For example, when I am playing a game I particularly like, I often have been in a trance for several hours.

Ted has mastered this mental state that Muggle psychologists call "flow".

He can use flow to fully immerse himself in learning and research, a powerful positive feedback that greatly improves learning efficiency.

Of course, this kind of behavior will consume mental energy, and Ted generally does not exceed four hours a day, so as not to hurt himself.

In addition to this, it is to communicate with Hermione.

Hermione's owl Magic is really not a dry meal, and it goes back and forth almost every day.

Hermione's curiosity and excitement about the wizarding world, Ted can fully understand.

He will tell Hermione some living habits and anecdotes that he encountered in Diagon Alley that are different from Muggles, and explain to her some of his own understanding of magic.

In a blink of an eye, it is already the end of August.

Anzu can already fly very high and far, it has grown up. He even rushed to deliver a letter to Hermione.

Ted: "Can you find Hermione? Can you really do it? It's not close."

Ansu held his head high, opened his beak, flapped his wings, and shouted, "Small things! Small things! Quack~"

It has learned some words.

Ted tied the letter to its leg and watched it fly away.

In the letter, he made an appointment with Hermione to meet on the train tomorrow.

Tomorrow is September 1st, the day Hogwarts starts school!

It's finally here!

Thanks to the book friend "Qi Dao sky" for the 1500 rewards!
