Chapter 17 Surprise

After eating the apple, Kewen sat idly in the dining chair, recalling the movie memory images that came to his mind at that time.

However, the memory pictures are not coherent. Only a limited number of scenes are still clear. I am afraid that the others will only be as clear as when they first entered Diagon Alley.

At this time, Kewen moved his left ear slightly, and vaguely heard the doorbell of the wand shop. Continuing to concentrate, I gradually heard Ollivander's footsteps.

Sit up straight now and manage your facial expressions.

Soon, the door of the restaurant opened, and Ollivander's figure appeared.

Stunned for a moment, Ollivander looked at the cleanly eaten food on the table, but did not expect Kewen to eat so fast.

But Ollivander didn't think much about it, just thought that Kewen was very hungry.

"Let's eat something simple first, and I'll take you to eat something hearty in the evening." Ollivander stood at the door and did not enter the restaurant.

"This, this is very good." Kewen responded against his will.

"Okay, while there are no guests now." Ollivander beckoned to Kewen: "Come and see what I bought for you."

"OK."

Cowan jumped off the high chair and followed Ollivander all the way back to the wand shop.

The two came to the bench in the reception area, and Ollivander took the thick cardboard boxes from the shopping cart one by one and introduced at the same time: "This is the crucible, these are the test tubes and crystal bottles, and here are the telescopes. , and finally this one is the balance."

After opening all the boxes one by one and showing Kewen to see them, Ollivander closed all the boxes again, and then took out the three thick oiled paper bags from the shopping cart.

While unpacking the paper bag, Ollivander continued to introduce to Kewen: "These are the books you will need for the first semester after entering school..."

"That's right." Ollivander's hand paused and asked Kewen, "Can you read?"

"I..." Kewen hesitated for a moment, then responded, "I don't know..."

"Then..." Ollivander continued to move in his hand, and quickly took out a book, opened it casually, and handed it to Kewen: "Come and see, do you recognize the words on it."

Kewen raised his hand to take the book and looked at it, and found that it was only normal English, so he nodded to Ollivander: "Yes sir, I can read."

"Okay, then you read it." Ollivander suggested.

Cowen turned his gaze back to the book, and casually found a passage to read softly: "Emeric was a short-lived but extremely ferocious dark wizard who had many powers in southern England in the early Middle Ages. He was defeated by his opponent in a bloody duel. Egbert killed."

"Okay." Ollivander interrupted, looking through the pile of books to find another one: "Try this one again."

"Okay." Kewen closed the book in his hand, only to realize that the book in his hand was called "History of Magic".

Putting "History of Magic" on the bench, Cowan took the new book from Ollivander and first glanced at the cover, which read "Standard Spells, Elementary," by Miranda Goshak.

Bowing his head slightly, to hide the surprise and anticipation in his eyes, Kewen opened the book, slowly turning the pages, the content on it made Kewen frown.

"What's wrong?" Ollivander asked without seeing Kewen's response.

"No, nothing." Shaking his head slightly, Kewen stopped turning the pages, looked at the current page on the book, and began to recite: "Wingardim... Leviosa. This spell is used to make the magical target appear to float... "

"Stop." Ollivander's very surprised voice sounded.

"I, where did I go wrong, sir?" Kewen stopped reading the contents of the book and looked up at Ollivander in confusion.

"You... know the spell above?" Ollivander's silver-white eyebrows were slightly wrinkled, his face puzzled.

"Um... Wingadim... I haven't seen the word Leviosa before,

So I tried to read with Old English phonetic transcription and Latin phonetic transcription, but it didn't feel smooth. Finally, I tried to combine the two phonetic transcriptions and read the word just now. Did I read it wrong? "

Seeing the cautious expression on Kewen's face, Ollivander's eyes were dazed for a moment, and then he said with a slightly surprised expression: "No, that's right, it's just that I didn't expect you to be so... erudite. This spell you It's um... accurate. But don't pause in the middle, just read it in one breath."

"So that's the case." Kewen's face was stunned, and then he said again: "Wingardim Leviosa."

As soon as the words fell, something that surprised Kewen and shocked Ollivander appeared.

I saw that the store began to vibrate as if it had been shaken. All the light objects that were not fixed began to slowly float upward, and the wand boxes that were fixed on the shelves all made a sound of collision.

"My God!" Ollivander's eyes widened in shock.

However, as a glass lamp floated to the ceiling, it collided and shattered, and Ollivander suddenly recovered. He quickly took out his wand from his bosom, pointed it into the air, and said, "Stop the curse!"

As Ollivander's spell came out, all kinds of things in the store that were floating upwards suddenly began to fall backwards.

At the same time, Kewen, who was sluggish, also felt that the feeling of 'connecting with all things' that suddenly appeared just now was cut off.

"Float!" At this time, Ollivander cast the spell again, and drank the same 'Winga Dim Leviosa' as Kewen.

Suddenly, all the falling objects seemed to have fallen into a state of weightlessness, and with the guidance of Ollivander's wand, they fell back to their original places one by one.

"Return as usual."

Finally, Ollivander cast a new spell again, pointing at the broken glass lampshade. As if going back in time, the lampshade is restored to its original state.

"magic……"

The scene in front of him made Kewen forget to maintain his character for a while, and couldn't help but sigh.

"No." In response, Ollivander shook his head and looked at Kewen again with a sigh: "You are the most amazing one..."

Hearing this, Kewen was startled, and hurriedly sorted out his facial expressions, looking at Ollivander cautiously with a gesture of 'doing something wrong'.

Ollivander looked at Kewen for a while, not knowing what was going on in his heart, after a sigh, his tone was unprecedentedly gentle and enthusiastic: "Forget about the rest, it seems that we will give you the choice first. A good wand."

Without waiting for Kewen to answer, Ollivander walked to the cashier immediately, and at the same time, said in a popular voice: "In most people's eyes, magic wands are used to enhance wizards' ability to cast spells. But only a few people deeply realize that, Wands also help wizards to control magic that they can't control for a while."

Picking up the tape measure from the cashier, Ollivander turned to look at Kewen with a smile: "Come on, let's start by measuring you..."
