"Okay, let's divide into three groups," Mycroft said with squinted eyes, and glanced at the watch on his hand. Under Professor McGonagall's gaze, "Sherlock, you and John are going to the Lihen Bookstore to buy what you need. You should know the specific address, Professor McGonagall, could you please take Gerald to pick out the wand? I will make clothes for Gerald, which can save everyone's time. After everything is done, Let's gather at this Dorala restaurant next to Gringotts, it is estimated that it will be noon." Mycroft said, looking at Professor McGonagall, solemnly "Ms. Minerva must attend the meeting at noon today. Let's have a meal together so we can sincerely and heartily thank you for your help today."

"Okay, boys, I accept your thanks, but I don't think we should separate. After all, this is Diagon Alley, and you are Muggles." Professor McGonagall nodded, looking at the four people explain.

"Yes, I didn't think well, I'm really sorry Professor." Mycroft narrowed his eyes, and he began to feel a little displeased.

Professor McGonagall didn't notice Mycroft's displeasure, but nodded with some relief. She felt that the freshman and his parents looked very good today, and not only would they not be hysterical with surprises on their faces, asking All kinds of problems, and being able to communicate well, this is the most important thing.Except for the paragraph at the beginning... Speaking of which, are all the Muggles these days so powerful?It's just that you can see the general situation of yourself as soon as you meet?It seems that we need to find some time to talk to Dumbledore.

"Very good, then let's go buy books for Gerald first..."

The next four people followed Professor McGonagall without saying anything, but the itinerary of the group did change.First, I went to measure the robe, and then I chose the wand (Gerald’s wand was so easy to choose that it made people cry. After Mycroft and Charlotte pointed out Gerald’s character traits in a few words, a wand automatically Jumped out and appeared in Gerald's hands), and then, after going to the cauldron shop to choose the necessary tools for potion class, Holmes prevented Professor McGonagall from buying books immediately.

The three took turns, especially Charlotte and Gerald, who coaxed Professor McGonagall into the dining room with all kinds of sweet words and innocent and pitiful expressions. In anticipation, he began to act cute and obedient.

"Professor McGonagall, thank you very much today. You know, without you, my brothers and I don't know when we can finish these things? They always have some disagreements on my matters, and then things will be over." It's going to be a mess." Gerald opened his cat eyes slightly, looking at Professor McGonagall with endless sincere thanks in his eyes.

"It's nothing, it's all the responsibility of a professor." Professor McGonagall nodded, she picked up the printed bone china water glass and took a sip of water, then said with a smile: "On the contrary, I want to thank you for your hospitality. I heard that the lamb chops and their desserts in this restaurant are very good.”

Sherlock next to him raised his eyebrows with some satisfaction. This restaurant was chosen by him. Although the wizarding world can't judge the quality of restaurants according to the rules, people's attitudes towards food are basically the same. In the same way, there are naturally some rules that can be found, such as the number of people and the rules of the table arrangement in the restaurant.

"Then please be sure to eat more, it will be our greatest honor to enjoy the guests." Mycroft nodded and said, then he stretched out his hand and rubbed Gerald's little head and said: "My brother is our family member. The youngest child, I didn't have much time to ask you about Hogwarts at home before, I wonder if you can introduce it to us now?"

Mag nodded, and said as a matter of course: "This is my duty. I will introduce Hogwarts to you. If you don't understand or don't understand anything, you can ask questions at any time." Then, Mag said Before the meal was served, they gave a detailed introduction to the situation at Hogwarts. Naturally, the meal was quiet, but after the meal, when the five of them were enjoying refreshments, Holmes began to ask questions.

People are most relaxed before and after meals. The sense of anticipation brought by delicious food before eating will distract people’s attention, and the feeling of satiety after eating will make people’s thinking relax. In addition, Sherlock Holmes The techniques and content of the interviews were traced to the point where no one can match their proficiency. Therefore, in this conversation, Professor McGonagall almost revealed the whole Hogwarts background.

After the meal, it was naturally a trip to the bookstore, but before going there, Gerald asked Mag to lead him to a schoolbag shop to buy a few schoolbags and suitcases with the space magnification spell, and after stuffing them in , Then I went to the bookstore.

Then, the abilities displayed by Holmes stunned the wizards in the store. They used methods such as arranging and classifying to select all the books they needed, which introduced the most basic information about the magic world. "Magic" and "Practical Household Magic" have not been let go. Among them, "Response to Spelled Items", "The Differences in Potions" and so on are completely useless books in the eyes of most wizards. Specially selected and listed on the list of key purchases.

"There are tens of thousands of books, but only these 1000 are useful." How come there are so many books such as "The Mystery of Clothes Matching" and "Field Growth Management"? It seems that the wizarding world is no different from ordinary society... Speaking of it , do wizards smoke?

"I bought them all, how many Galleons do I need?" Mycroft said with an unchanged expression, behind him were books stacked up to the ceiling, as if he wasn't among the people who just picked out the more than 1000 volumes piled up so that the entire doorway couldn't get in or out. of.

The clerk of Lihen Bookstore looked at the group of people admiringly, quoted a preferential price, and then graciously served Sherlock Holmes, giving away a super-large space bag for free, packed all the books, and finally sent them out.

——A lot of unsalable books in the store have been sold out!Muggle eyes are really strange.

The day's trip ended perfectly. When Professor McGonagall asked Gerald if he wanted to keep an owl as a pet, Gerald decisively gave up.He glanced at Dr. Watson next to his second brother, and thought that a really useful pet should be Dr. Watson - able to communicate, not slow down, fully functional and has a skill - the second brother is really lucky, to be able to Find such an assistant.

Naturally, Mycroft didn't miss Gerald's envious glance. He twitched his cheeks with some toothache. He felt that his two younger brothers were careless guys. It seems that he should pay close attention to Gerrard in the future. friendship situation.

Professor McGonagall is a very serious person. She did not leave until she sent Holmes and his party out of the Leaky Cauldron. At this time, the sun was setting in London—Holmes and the others spent an entire afternoon at Lihen Bookstore. Time——Mycroft looked at his watch, then at his two younger brothers and Dr. Watson, and felt that it was better for him to go back to Baker Street with them.

After all, some things have to be talked about.

"Harry Potter, the savior?" The corners of Sherlock's mouth curled up. Hearing this sentence from McGonagall at noon, Sherlock felt that things in the wizarding world were fun.

Like a fairy tale, the sage, the savior, the person whose name cannot be named, ahh, appeared in front of his eyes and ears, and Sherlock felt his nerves jumping for joy.The difference is Gerald's depression. Today, after seeing everything in the wizarding world, Gerald regrets it a bit. Then, after hearing what happened in the wizarding world told by Professor McGonagall, Gerrard Ladd was even less excited.

Unlike his two older brothers, Gerald preferred to be alone and think quietly, rather than seek trouble.Speaking of which, compared to Sherlock, Gerrard has the quality of a bystander.However, the Sherlock Holmes family's desire to show off and perform is still vividly displayed in Gerald.

Back at Sherlock's rented house, the four of them took off their coats and sat down one after another. Mrs. Hudson greeted them graciously and brought biscuits and tea. After she left, Sherlock said: "It seems The wizarding world was really a mess ten years ago. At that time, it happened to be the time when Britain was facing an economic crisis and the social situation was at its lowest. It can be connected with the situation in the wizarding world at that time, Mycroft, what do you think?"

"It's a boring trick." Mycroft said with deep eyes, and he put his finger on his chin, "The wizarding world is still not peaceful. Every wizard has no brains. Thinking is as difficult as death for them. The influence caused by a person whose name cannot be spoken has not faded until now. A group of adults pinned their victory and hope on a newborn baby, and the person whose name cannot be spoken actually believed it...Jera De, you can rest assured to live in Hogwarts, I believe you should be absolutely safe there."

"Don't say that, brother, I'm getting more and more desperate now." Gerald was in a bit of pain, feeling that he was about to live and study with a group of irrational crazy ducks (in fact, this is also true), and he couldn't People who understand themselves cannot communicate on an equal footing, and their lives will definitely be extremely painful, "From Professor McGonagall's words, it is obvious that this matter is endless! As I am in the same grade as the Savior, the first semester in the future will definitely There will be troubles, maybe the person whose name cannot be named will appear, and Principal Dumbledore will definitely not sit idly by. He has a great possibility to set a trap in Hogwarts and take out a mysterious person Absolutely irresistible temptation came, let the mysterious man appear in Hogwarts... Then whether it is to train the so-called savior, or to wake up the wizarding world, or to confirm some aspects of his ideas, in short , my new school will definitely be very lively."

"So what, it's already expected anyway, isn't it?" Mycroft raised his eyebrows, and Sherlock didn't know what to think of, the excited expression faded from his face, replaced by boredom, "As long as If it is expected, then the initiative is in our hands, Gerrard, think about what I taught you before, and take a good look at yourself."

McCoff stood up, he had to go back, it was very difficult for him to spend this day with Gerald.

"I'm leaving, Gerald. When you go to King's Cross Station, Sherlock and Dr. Watson will accompany you. I won't be able to accompany you then." Mycroft pointed towards Gerrard implicitly head, and then walked out without looking back.

Neither Gerald nor Sherlock sent off their eldest brother. Sherlock's brain was already turning hot at this time, and Gerald looked at the piles of boxes he brought back from Diagon Alley in despair. There are more than 1000 books and things you need to bring to school stuffed inside.

God, I hope my desire to show off and reasoning will not flare up by then! !Gerrard thought desperately, but at the same time thought that this was absolutely impossible...
