"Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" itself is an excellent novel, and with the help of Mycroft, the popularity of this book is even faster than in the previous life.In just a few months, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" has sold hundreds of thousands of copies, and has topped the bestseller lists of many books such as the British "Guardian" and "The Times" , and was critically acclaimed, being nominated for several book awards.

At Christmas, Anita also received a gift from McCoff—"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" translated into several different languages, including the Chinese version, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone". "Special" should not be far from becoming popular all over the world.McCoff also told Anita that a film is in the works and is expected to be released by Christmas next year.

Anita applauded Mycroft's efficiency and opened another gift, which contained only a note that read:

"You won this game. I have to say that I am worthy of me when it comes to treating magic regulations as shit.

I prepared a Christmas present for you, which was supposed to be a big surprise, but now it can only be regarded as a small favor.But it should be fun to tease those idiots in the Ministry of Magic, and it's not a waste of time.I think I'll like it. "

Who sent it from?What's the meaning?The handwriting on the note looked familiar, but Anita couldn't remember it right away.Anita picked up the wrapping of the gift, and on the wrapper it said: "To Tom Riddle".

"Dad, I took the wrong gift. This should be yours." Anita ran to the living room and handed the note to Tom who was reading the letter. Tom frowned and looked very serious.

"Oh?" Tom raised his eyebrows unexpectedly, and took the note.

"I don't have a signature, I don't know if it's..." Speaking of this, Anita suddenly thought why the handwriting on the note was so familiar. Isn't this exactly Dad's handwriting?Anita opened her eyes wide and exclaimed, "Is this from Voldemort?"

"I suppose so." Tom nodded.

Anita frowned, "What does he mean? What kind of big surprise, little surprise? What is Voldemort trying to do again?"

"He didn't mean to do something, but he has done it," said Tom.

"How do you know?" Anita asked curiously, "There is a telepathy? The unique telepathy between souls of the same origin?"

Tom shook his head amusedly, and handed the letter he was reading to Anita, "An urgent message from my people at the Ministry of Magic."

The handwriting on the letter was very scribbled, obviously the writer wrote it in a hurry, even Anita, who didn't know much about handwriting, could see that the owner of the letter was flustered at that time.The letter reads:

"My Lord,

The magic circle hidden in Diagon Alley has completely failed! ..."

The signature on the back was so scribbled that Anita couldn't make it out.

"The magic circle is invalid? Doesn't this mean that the whole Diagon Alley is exposed to the Muggles?" Anita was dumbfounded, Voldemort played a bit too big.

"I'm afraid so." Tom hurriedly put on his coat and walked into the fireplace. "I've already contacted the Muggle government, but I have to go to Diagon Alley before the Ministry of Magic makes matters worse. Tell your mother Don't wait for me tonight, this matter may take some time to deal with." After speaking, Tom disappeared into the green flames.

Anita thought for a while, and she was more interested in the reaction of the Muggles than in the question of how Voldemort did it.You must know that Diagon Alley is located in London. In a place like London where every inch of land is expensive, an alley suddenly pops up. The alley is full of strange people, selling strange things, and Gringotts Goblin!Gosh, it's unimaginable.

Anita ran to Sherlock's office - like the Riddles, Sherlock was staying at Hogwarts for Christmas - and knocked hard on Sherlock's door.

After a while, the door was slammed open, and Sherlock appeared at the door in pajamas, with a very bad expression on his face, "You better have a good reason, otherwise I'd be happy to deduct Slytherin's house points." Locke said.

"Merry Christmas to you too!" Anita said cheerfully, as if she hadn't seen Sherlock's black face at all, and entered the office uninvited.

"Come on, what's the matter?" Sherlock closed the door helplessly.

"Big deal," Anita said. "Check the news, quick."

Sherlock frowned, took out his mobile phone, and after browsing the news of the day, he couldn't help showing a surprised expression.

Anita went to Sherlock's side to watch it with him. After all, it happened in London, and it was still on a day like Christmas. In just a few hours, Diagon Alley was already full of news on the Internet:

"A mysterious alley in London!"

“The world of Harry Potter really exists!”

"The filming location of "Harry Potter" is officially revealed!"

"'The alley burst out of the air in an instant!' declared one eyewitness."

……

It exploded on Facebook and Twitter:

"My God! My friends and I were shopping near Leicester Square, and I saw those houses emerging from the air bit by bit!!!"

"I've lived there for decades and I swear I've never seen that alley before! That place just popped out of nowhere!!"

"This is magic! This is magic!"

"How can I remember that there have always been, but those houses seem to have been remodeled."

"Oh my god, isn't this exactly Diagon Alley? It's exactly the same as the one described in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone! <picture><picture><picture>"

"Next Wednesday is my son's 11th birthday, waiting for the Hogwarts owl."

"The wizarding world really exists!"

"I heard that the movie "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" is about to be filmed. This is obviously just a marketing tool for the movie."

"The crew of @《Harry Potter》was so generous, they actually built a Diagon Alley in London, @XX company is really rich and powerful."

"It's really exactly the same as described in the book! @《Harry Potter》The crew is simply a British conscience crew."

"Please @《Harry Potter》play to build a Hogwarts! (Star Eyes)"

"Just go to Diagon Alley and go to the movies."

"I don't care, I don't care, the wizarding world is real!"

……

"Guidance Officially Refutes the Rumors: (Link) (Link) (Link); You're welcome, those who are crazy and want to go to Hogwarts can retreat."

Sherlock clicked on a link, which was just sent out by the "Harry Potter" crew, mainly explaining that Diagon Alley was indeed built for the crew to film.As for why the alley was built in London for a whole day for a few minutes of footage in the movie, the crew explained that the "Harry Potter" series will be filmed several times, for the convenience of framing, and to better get close to the film. The original book directly built Diagon Alley.After the filming ends, Diagon Alley will be open to tourists. Tourists can buy various peripheral products of "Harry Potter" here and experience the feeling of shopping in the world of "Harry Potter". There is a problem of losing money.

"I'm almost convinced," Anita said, "but that doesn't explain Diagon Alley popping out of nowhere."

Sherlock clicked on another webpage, which stated that this land has always belonged to the XX family, but because this family does not like modern technology and architecture, it has always refused to develop this land, and even used visual errors to hide this land Get up, that's why some people saw this place before and some didn't.Later, I read the book "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" and fell in love with the wizarding world in the book, so I sold the land to the "Harry Potter" crew.

"Visual error? Is this a bit of a lie?" Anita said. "Will anyone believe it?"

"Do you think it's more ridiculous that the wizarding world really exists, or this?" Sherlock asked.

Well, makes sense.

There are also a few posts, collecting photos of the Diagon Alley area, analyzing the principle of visual errors from various scientific angles, and even taking pictures from certain angles, which seem to hide some buildings photo.

Anita was about to kneel down to the efficiency of McCoff's agents. She, a wizard who knew the truth, almost believed it.

Of course, there are still skeptics, but there are still people in this world who believe that the earth is flat, and a few more people who believe in the existence of the wizarding world are nothing.

Overall, the Diagon Alley incident didn't have a bad impact, but instead brought excellent publicity to the "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" movie.

"Although this ensures that the wizarding world will not really be exposed to Muggles, what about Diagon Alley? We can no longer hide it, can we? Do we need to change the place?" At the dinner table the next day, Anita asked Tom.

"There's no need to change the place, just make some changes," Tom said.

"Rectification?"

"Add some formations that can quickly distinguish Muggles and wizards, and those shops can sell magic products and "Harry Potter" peripherals at the same time. Those shopkeepers will not be unhappy if they can get an extra income. As long as the regulations In the future, you can go shopping in Diagon Alley without using magic.” Tom said, “It may take some getting used to, but I don’t think it is difficult to do. There is still time to adjust, and Diagon Alley will be opened after the filming is over. It will be open to tourists."

"Even if a wizard accidentally uses magic in Diagon Alley, it doesn't matter." Irene said, "It can be called a special performance for Muggles, and it can attract more tourists. There will definitely be many people using it." All kinds of scientific methods decipher how these magics deceive people's eyes, and they will never think that this is real magic."

"Indeed." Anita nodded, "I heard that more than half of those wizards who like to live in the Muggle world choose to be magicians?"

Irene nodded, "After all, Hogwarts didn't teach them other skills that can make a living in the Muggle world."
