Chapter 121 Gallon Thief

Nian Gao Pei Ma Tuan
Weasley gathered together, chatted casually, and continued shopping in the bookstore.
Based on their financial situation, second-hand bookstores are obviously a better choice than Flourish and Blotts.
Glenn's new textbooks have long been placed in the bedroom, and Qiu also completed the shopping in the morning.
Because Mr. Zhang had something to do in his department, he made an appointment with her to pick her up in Diagon Alley after he was done.
As for why she didn't go home first, only she knew.
The two of them strolled casually in Diagon Alley, and the sounds of hawking could be heard from time to time on both sides of the road.
Like many markets where people gather, not all businesses have fixed stalls or stores, and there are also many self-operated vendors selling goods along the street.
It was just after tea time, and it was also the time when Diagon Alley was most crowded.
Glenn and Qiu were chatting all the way when they happened to come near the Quidditch boutique.
"So beautiful..."
Qiu couldn't help but stop, with a hint of yearning in her eyes.
Glenn followed his gaze and saw a graceful broomstick in the bright floor-to-ceiling window.
The tail end is neatly tied with fine and even branches, without any unnecessary or protruding branches.
This is very consistent with the aesthetics of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
The red broom handle is made from a whole core of mahogany wood, polished to a smooth finish, and coated with a shiny varnish.
The top of the broom handle is engraved with small golden characters.
"Nimbus 2000"
At this time, the number of young wizards gathered in front of the Quidditch boutique was no less than in the morning.
Everyone pointed at the window and chattered about the design of the nimbus.
"You seem to like this broom very much. Would you like to go in and take a look?"
Glenn asked thoughtfully after seeing her reluctant to look away for a long time.
"what?"
Qiu hesitated and nodded.
The two squeezed out of the crowd, but Qiu was bumped into by a thin figure wearing a black cloak.
The figure didn't apologize, kept walking, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Glenn was immediately angry and planned to catch up with him to argue with him, but was held back by Qiu.
"Forget it, I'm not hurt." The girl shook her head and pulled him to open the store door.
"Welcome!" the clerk greeted warmly.
Although there were many people outside the window, the store seemed a bit empty.
"windowshopping" is indeed everywhere.
The female clerk had also worked here for several years and had known Glenn for a long time. When she saw him come in, her smile became even more cordial.
Who wouldn’t like a young lady who is good-looking, has a rich family, and is very polite?
"It's Glenn!" She waved her hand, "You can read whatever you like, just call me if you need anything."
"Okay." Glenn nodded, "Can you take out the Nimbus 2000 and take a look?"
The female clerk glanced at him and hesitated before saying, "Look, but be careful not to break it, otherwise the store manager will definitely kill me."
"Don't worry." He reached out and took the broom off the shelf and handed it to Qiu's hand.
The little wizards outside the window were excited again.
"Of course, if it's broken, you can just pay for it. You don't need the money anyway." The clerk joked again.
Qiu took it carefully, for fear of damaging the twigs at the end of the broom or leaving scratches.
Her slender white fingers gently stroked the smooth broom handle and the small words on the top, as if she couldn't put it down.
Glenn didn't say anything, just watched quietly with a faint smile on his face.
It's obvious that she really likes this broom.
The girl played with it for a while, reluctantly put it back on the shelf, and was about to ask Glenn to leave.
Glenn had a plan in mind and did not pay for the broom on the spot. He just winked at the clerk and signaled that he would come back later.
The clerk was very sensible and didn't say anything. He just made an "OK" gesture quietly with his hand and opened the store door for them.
“Looking forward to our next visit.”
Until they were far away, Qiu couldn't help but look back again.
Glenn smiled to himself, but asked quietly, "Would you like to try Fusco's ice cream?"
"Okay." The girl nodded and stopped thinking about the nimbus.
The two came to the ice cream shop not far from the wand shop and found a small table facing the street to sit down.
"Little Glenn, are you here to eat ice cream again?"
Florin Fusco said carelessly when he saw him.
Florin is a middle-aged wizard who looks very easy-going. His chubby body and fair appearance make it easy for people to get close to him.
Seriously, how can a person who works with ice cream every day not be fat?
Glenn smiled and walked up to him, stroking his swollen belly affectionately.
"It's only been a few days since I last saw you, and your belly is even rounder!"
"Go, go, go!" Florin waved his hand to drive him away, "What kind of taste do you want to eat?"
"I'm still the same. As for Qiu..." She looked at the girl with probing eyes, "What flavor do you like?"
Qiu shook her head shyly: "I can taste any flavor."
Florin laughed and patted his chest.
"Then it's up to me to play freely. Don't worry, this is definitely the favorite ice cream flavor of the little witches."
He said confidently and walked into the operation room.
Not long after, he was carrying two portions of ice cream
"Yours, vanilla cookies."
Florin casually threw one copy to Glenn, then put on a smiling expression and gently placed the other copy in front of Qiu.
"Try it, Foscott's special milky peach flavor."
The ice cream cup, which was obviously larger than Glenn's, was filled to the brim. The inside was pink and tender, full of girlishness.
Under his expectant gaze, Qiu scooped up a spoonful and gently put it into her mouth, carefully feeling the smooth texture and sweet taste.
The raw material of Fosco's ice cream is obviously fresh milk rather than cream. It has a strong milky aroma but does not feel sticky.
Peach is full of flavor, with a candy-like sweetness and a bit of fruity freshness.
The girl showed a satisfied expression and gave Florin a thumbs up.
"It's delicious!" she praised without any politeness.
The fat ice cream shop owner laughed heartily, and the compliments from his little customers made him extremely satisfied.
"Hey..."
Glenn interrupted inappropriately.
He pointed to Qiu's ice cream cup, and then pointed to his own vanilla cookie-flavored ice cream that was obviously too perfunctory.
"Isn't your double standard too obvious?"
Qiu glanced at his finger and couldn't help but smile and narrowed her eyes.
Florin looked calm.
"I'm not going to charge you any money anyway. Shouldn't it be up to me to decide how much to pay?"
Glenn was speechless for a moment.
"How can that be done?!" Qiu said hurriedly, immediately reaching out to touch his money bag.
Florin waved his hands repeatedly: "No need, little girl, you are Glenn's friend, how can I collect money?"
However, no one expected that Qiu rummaged through every pocket on his body and suddenly found that his money bag was missing.
Glenn's face turned cold for a moment, and the thin figure wearing a black cloak and a hood appeared in his mind.
Based on their financial situation, second-hand bookstores are obviously a better choice than Flourish and Blotts.
