"Well, I think we're a little silly following Katrina like this."
The two followed Katrina in Diagon Alley for a while. Albert looked at the girl standing in front of the window of Flourish and Blotts Bookstore not far away, turned to Isobel beside him and said.
"I think so too." Isobel breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that her sister was fine.
"Then...let's go there."
With that said, Albert walked towards Flourish and Blotts Bookstore.
"Why are you here?"
Hearing the voice, Katrina turned to look at the man and woman approaching, and the expression on her face suddenly became a little unnatural.
"Um, I just forgot to tell you that I already have a copy of "The Monster Book of Monsters."" Albert raised his finger and pointed to the large iron cage in front of the bookstore window, which contained about a hundred copies of "The Monster Book of Monsters."
"Book of Monsters", said to Katrina, "Last semester, Hagrid gave me a copy."
The expression on the face of the bookstore manager who was wearing thick gloves and holding two "Monsters of Monsters" suddenly changed. He just wanted to get the books from the iron cage, but was blocked by those "Monsters of Monsters"
"Book" is so chewy.
"Give me the book."
Albert took the "Monster's Book of Monsters" that was still struggling from the bookstore manager, and lightly scratched the spine of the book with his finger, instantly making the "Monster's Book of Monsters" quiet.
When the manager saw this scene, he suddenly became spartan. He stood there stupidly, watching Albert hand Katrina the "Monster Book of Monsters" in uniform, and then sent it to the school.
handed him the book list.
"Two of the others." Albert's voice rang in the bookstore manager's ears.
"How... did you do that? These "Monster Books of Monsters" have been causing a lot of trouble. I have been bitten nine times this morning." The bookstore manager said with a sad face.
"You should write to the Professor of Care of Magical Creatures who ordered this book for his students." Albert looked at the crying bookstore manager quite speechlessly and reminded: "The other party must have a way to subdue these people.
Even the biting monster book 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 what Albert said made so much sense.
"You can easily subdue these books by gently stroking the spine of the Monster Book of Monsters with your fingers." Albert reminded kindly: "Remember to get a rope and tie the book up first. After a while, it will
Restore."
Soon after, the three of them walked out of Flourishes and Blotts Bookstore under the grateful eyes of the bookstore manager.
"I dare say that it would be quite difficult to subdue all the monsters in the Yokai Book with his method."
Before leaving Flourish and Blotts Bookstore, Albert glanced at the iron cage. There were also a lot of "Monster Books of Monsters" in it. It was not that easy to subdue them all.
"There seems to be a sale at Madam Malkin's Robe Shop. Do any of you need to buy new robes?" Isobel said and looked at Katrina.
"No, I'll go to the drugstore later to replenish the medicinal ingredients, and then buy some quills, ink and parchment. I'll have just about everything here." Katrina really didn't want to go with the two of them, feeling like she was redundant.
of.
"I need to go to the Eela Owl Shop to buy some nuts for my owl." Albert thought for a while and then continued: "But we can stop by the Florin Cold Drink Shop and buy ice cream. I'll treat you."
When the three of them passed by, they saw Harry Potter talking to the store manager Florin. The savior seemed to often do his holiday homework here.
"What flavor do you want?" Florin asked gently.
"chocolate."
Katrina went to the freezer and picked out what she liked.
"Me too."
"Then let's have three chocolate-flavored ice creams." Albert had just reached into his pocket to take out the money, and when he was about to pay, he heard the voice of Harry Potter in his ears.
"Albert."
In fact, after Harry saw the three people coming, he hesitated for a long time and finally spoke.
"What's the matter, Potter?" Albert asked, tilting his head.
"Um...do you know it's ominous?" Harry asked hesitantly.
"Ominous?" Albert raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Are you referring to predicting your own death from the crystal ball?"
"No, I met a black dog."
"Oh, a black dog? That's definitely not ominous. You're just overthinking it."
It was not difficult for Albert to guess who the black dog was, and Black probably didn't expect that he would scare Harry.
"Of course, if you think it is death and worry about it all day long, you may scare yourself to death one day." Looking at Harry's mouth gradually opening, Albert reminded kindly, "Scare yourself.
That’s the scariest thing, because you think that’s what it is, instead of the fact that that’s what it is.”
"I think what Mr. Anderson said makes sense."
The store manager Florin handed the ice cream to the three of them respectively and said to Harry: "Most of the so-called diviners and prophets are actually liars, because there are actually very few wizards who have the ability to predict the future."
Katrina seemed very happy while eating ice cream, and looked at Albert with a look that seemed to say: This is a liar.
Albert was not embarrassed at all, he was not a liar, and he was thick-skinned enough to ignore Katrina's gaze.
He shrugged, bid farewell to Harry, and headed towards the Eela Owl Shop, which was a shop that sold owls. Albert bought all the owl nuts for Sheila here.
Half an hour later, the three of them quickly bought all the things they needed to buy. Albert asked the two girls next to him: "Do you still want to go shopping in 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 doesn't want to stay here any longer. She knows that if she expresses her intention to stay and visit Diagon Alley, the other two people will definitely stay with her. She has had enough of the irritation between them.
feeling.
After sending the McDougal sisters home, Albert left the wizarding world through the Leaky Cauldron.
Standing alone on a busy street, there is always an inexplicable sense of unreality.
Albert found a coffee shop nearby, ordered a cappuccino, and waited here for Herb to pick him up.
Herb didn't keep him waiting long and appeared at the door of the coffee shop.
"What about France?"
"I learned a lot of useful things, and..." Albert pointed to 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. Flamel gave us the wedding ring. It is a magic ring made by fairies. It will never get dirty or rust." Albert explained casually.
"No more?" Herb asked, tilting his head.
"No more." Albert looked at Herb quite speechlessly.
"I thought I could use some powerful magic through each 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 this old mobile phone and couldn't help but ask, "How much does this thing cost?"
"It's not expensive!" Herb asked doubtfully, "Can't you play with this stuff over there?"
"You can't use it. You can't even use electronic items. They will interfere with each other anyway. I remember saying that before." Albert handed the phone to Herb and said: "Give it to Nia!"
"Oh fine!"
Herb put away his cell phone, started the engine, and started chatting 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 considered very 'poor' now, but as you said, there are indeed many people in that country."
"This is a fast lane. If you want it, join it. At least we won't have to worry about money in the future." Albert reminded: "Money will only become less and less valuable.
, it is not a precious metal like the wizard's galleons, and it is not easy to depreciate."
"Do you really plan to stay in the wizarding world?" Herb frowned deeply, "Then what do you plan to do with these industries in the future? I believe you might be able to fulfill your original wish and build a business empire."
"Isn't there still Nia?" Albert said without thinking: "Besides, you can have another son, you are both young anyway."
"No, we are not young anymore, Nia is not as capable as you." Herb shook his head and said without talking about this matter. He felt that Albert would probably have a way to solve these problems.
