Chapter 14 No need to bring your own armor to school now?
Rupert has never lived such a comfortable life since graduating from Hogwarts. ̲x̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
When she gets up every morning, she doesn't have to worry about today's food rations as before. Les was responsible for the living expenses of the two of them, and the money in his wallet seemed to be endless. It took her several days to get used to it.
Eat whenever you want, sleep whenever you want, and move anywhere in Diagon Alley with Delais's permission. This kind of life was something that Rupert never dared to think about before - she even had time to take students I visited all the shops in Diagon Alley that I didn't want to visit one by one.
As for her owner Les, except for occasionally going shopping with her in the shops in Diagon Alley, he rarely leaves Florin Fusco's Ice Cream Shop, which is a shop selling ice cream and cold drinks in Diagon Alley. , the boss is an interesting little old man with extensive knowledge of all aspects of the Middle Ages.
What Les likes to do most is to hold a few books, order a sweet cold drink, sit under the umbrella outside the Florin ice cream shop, and then order a box of ice cream every half hour and chat with the shop owner. Florin talks about the Middle Ages.
Most of the time, Les would do science popularization for Florin, but there were also times when he was rendered speechless by Florin. Often at this time, Les would close his mouth and lower his head to read, while Florin would He laughed and gave him some milk-flavored ice cream.
He only returned to the Leaky Cauldron when it was time to eat or when the ice cream parlor was closing.
Of course, Serge did not give up his "career". He asked Lupe to specify a few newspapers, summarize the news on them every day, and then send them to a specific address via owl mail.
It's just that there has been no news feedback from "Classmates", and Les is not in a hurry. He has plenty of time to wait for the fish to take the bait.
As the days passed, Rice's understanding of the modern world gradually deepened. He learned a lot of things from books, among which the most discussed was Harry Potter, the "Boy Who Lived".
"Counting the days, that boy is going to go to Hogwarts."
"Which boy?"
"Who else could it be, Harry Potter, the Boy-Who-Lived!"
Such conversations could ring in Les's ears several times a day. In his impression, he and his three old friends were not as "popular" as they were when they were at the height of their fame.
Who is Harry Potter?
Rice's confusion was quickly answered, and he read books published in recent years - such as "Modern History of Magic", "The Rise and Fall of Dark Magic", "Important Magical Events of the Twentieth Century", Harry Potter Names are often mentioned.
From these books, Les also learned what the savior did - he defeated a demon king.
Les was still a little surprised by this. It was common for brave men to defeat the devil, and the four of them were one of them back then. But it was the first time in a thousand years that a baby who had not yet left his infancy defeated the demon king who was in full swing.
Given the opportunity to meet the "Boy Who Lived", Les made up his mind.
"Here comes the vanilla ice cream." Florin placed a large box of ice cream on Les' table.
"Thank you!" Les stood the book in front of him and enjoyed the ice cream that exuded a hint of white air.
While eating ice cream, the pages of the book in front of him slowly turned by themselves.
"You should try other flavors. Strawberry and mango-flavored ice cream are selling very well recently." Seeing that Les was eating deliciously, Florin couldn't help but recommend other flavors of his own ice cream to him.
Les shook his head. He had tasted all the flavors of Florin's ice cream, and only fresh milk, yogurt and vanilla suited his taste best.
Suddenly, a shadow fell in front of Les, knocking over the book he was standing there.
The uninvited guest is a barn owl, carrying a letter under its sharp beak.
After delivering the letter, the owl fluttered its wings and flew away as if it had completed its mission.
Rice knew without looking that the envelope contained an acceptance letter to Hogwarts. He broke open the paint and took out two pieces of parchment from the envelope. The first was the admission notice written by Professor Minerva McGonagall, the Vice-Principal, and the second was a list of required textbooks and essential supplies.
Looking at the letter in his hand, long-standing memories gradually came to mind.
"Is it necessary to be so formal?" Godric Gryffindor looked at Hufflepuff who was busy writing at his desk with a look of astonishment on his face.
"Of course! They are my students!" Hufflepuff replied matter-of-factly.
"But they are already going to school in the castle! Rowena, Salazar, tell me, is it necessary to do this?" Gryffindor couldn't understand Hufflepuff's behavior at all. Why should he give students who have already enrolled in school? students write admission letters.
"A sense of ceremony, a sense of ceremony!" Ravenclaw waved his hand and said, Gryffindor, please make it more formal. The four of us are going to build the best magic school in Britain. Don't make it like those grassroots teams. .
After encountering disappointment from Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff, Gryffindor couldn't help but look at his good friend Slytherin, hoping to hear a few good words from him.
Salazar Slytherin stroked his beard: "This is indeed a bit stupid..."
"Right, right!" Gryffindor's eyes lit up: They must be old friends, and they will stand by themselves when they quarrel.
"I chose to let the quill write the letter by itself, just take a look." Slytherin showed his friend the automatic writing quill he had developed a few days ago.
[Dear Miss Greengrass:
We are pleased to inform you that you have been admitted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Attached is a list of required books and equipment]
Looking at the quill writing on the parchment, the three Ravenclaws looked shocked.
Can you still play like this? !
We all hand-write admission notices honestly, but you are the only one who uses magic to be lazy?
Although they said that the written notice was not sincere, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff still silently chose to take an automatic writing quill from Slytherin - to write an acceptance letter to each student. The workload of notification letters is really too much.
A letter was written and then sent to the student's home via an owl raised on campus.
Under the insistence of the four founders, this behavior became a Hogwarts tradition. Eventually, every child born in the British Isles with magical talents will receive a letter from Hogwarts at the age of eleven. Admission letter from the magic school.
…
After Lupet completed today's intelligence-gathering mission, she brought a piece of pudding to Florin Ice Cream Shop. Then she saw the owner staring at a piece of parchment attentively and muttering something in his mouth——
"Eh? Now you don't need to bring your own armor and sword to enroll?"
Rupert:? ? ?
