Harry Potter – Approaching the Magic World

Jon followed his mother into the wand shop. There was a mother and daughter walking out in the shop. Obviously, they chose wand for enrollment. Mrs. Smith and the witch mother were nodded to each other, even though they Don't know.

The young witch received in the shop led Mrs. Smith to sit on a bench and waited, and then led Jon to a space separated by a curtain at the back of the hall.

The great and famous wand makes the Master, Mr. Ollivander is standing on the ladder to sort the wand, the witch host softly told Jon to wait, and then retired.

Jon quietly watched Mr. Ollivander float up and down the ladder. He looked at the "wall" formed by the long and narrow cardboard boxes, and suddenly remembered a description in the original work.

He said softly: "The dust and silence here seem to make people feel that mysterious magic is hidden."

That's it! Jon asked himself that he couldn't think of such a straightforward and beautiful description, but that didn't prevent him from remembering the description in the book.

"Oh, a very novel statement." Mr. Ollivander had already climbed down the stairs for some time and walked to Jon's face: "Good afternoon."

"Oh, Hello, are you Mr. Ollivander?"

Jon said nervously.

"Oh, yes, yes, don't be nervous."

Mr. Ollivander said: "I know I will see you soon, Jon Smith, this is not a problem. Your eyes look almost the same as your mother's. She came here to buy her first wand, which is almost like yesterday..."

What a familiar line.

Jon seriously suspected that Mr. Ollivander had said this to every wizard who bought a wand here, but he would not be so stupid to expose the matter, just smile in cooperation.

"Well, Mr. Smith, come on, let me see." Ollivander coughed twice and picked it up from the workbench: "Which hand are you good at?"

"Oh, I am used to using the right hand."

Jon raised his hand and asked Ollivander to measure his size, first from shoulder to fingertip, then from wrist to elbow, shoulder to floor , Knee to armpit, and finally measuring the head circumference, the complicated process even made Jon suspect that Ollivander wanted to make a magic wax figure for him.

"Mr. Smith, come and try this one, made of cherry wood and Unicorn tail hair. It is 13 inches long."

After the measurement, Mr. Ollivander waved his hand to the ceiling. One of the cartons flew into Mr. Ollivander's hands automatically, and Mr. Ollivander took out the wand from it.

Jon picked up the slender wand and waved it. As expected, there was no response.

It's normal. The wand of the wizard is never selected right away, but I just don't know if it is Mr. Ollivander's marketing method.

"Oh, maybe you can try this one, willow, dragon's nerve, eleven inches long."

Jon cooperated with Mr. Ollivander to choose wand, after all, he was very good to wand Knowing nothing, there is no other way.

"I like picky customers, but it doesn’t matter, I can always find one here-oh, try this."

Ollivander gently raised his hand, a paper box from Wand flew over from the edge of the wall. He took out the wand inside and handed it to Jon: "Vine Wood, Unicorn's fur, nine and three-quarters inches long, relatively soft and elastic."

Jon took the wand and tapped it lightly. A golden fire star burst out from the top of the wand, just like a firework.

"That's it, it's great."

Ollivander happily wrapped the wand in silk and put it in a wooden box, smiled and said to Jon: "What a wonderful combination , You must be a young wizard with extraordinary ambition and pattern. I wish you a happy life in Hogwarts."

"Thank you for your appreciation."

Jon took the wooden box At the same time, there was the sound of mother's high heels stepping on the bluestone floor.

The moment the curtain was lifted, Mr. Ollivander's voice also sounded.

"The price is six Galleons, thank you for your patronage."

……

I came out of the Ollivander wand shop and went to the clothing store to pick up the clothes. I picked a silver-gray owl, and this trip to Diagon Alley was over.

It was mainly because of the delay in the wand shop for too long. When the mother and son returned home, it was already noon.

Return the things in his hands to his room. When Jon came down from the upper floor again, he happened to see two strange owls standing in the living room.

"Any new things have arrived?"

Jon stepped forward to open one of the packages, which happened to contain two books: "Magical Theory" and "The Dark Forces: "A Guide to Self-Protection" are the two books that Mrs. Smith missed when she ordered the book.

Another owl sent a letter with the recipient Lynn Smith on it. Based on the principle of no privacy between mother and child, Jon opened the letter.

Dear younger sister:

I heard that my cute little nephew received the admission letter from Hogwarts. Both my mother and I are very happy. Today is the weekend. I don’t know if your family can Do you come to the manor for dinner before dinner? Mother and I miss our young wizard.

Also: To my lovely nephew Jon, your cousin asked me to take it for you.

Your dear-Mei Yang

This is a letter from home. Jon has a good impression of his aunt, who has experienced an unfortunate marriage but is still gentle and kind. The manor of the grandmother mentioned in the letter is also very familiar.

After all, he lived there for a year when he was a child. His grandmother, Carolina Yang, is a very kind old witch, who looks very similar to the grandmother of the previous life.

Perhaps all the old people in the world are all the same. Jon yelled a few words loudly, briefly narrated the content of the letter with Mrs. Smith, and got instructions from his mother to call his father about this matter. .

Love Smith was very excited about going to his mother-in-law's house. He agreed and said that he would go home early today, and then hung up the phone.

Jon put down the phone, turned around and saw the mother who was standing on the stairs, waving the wand and sending objects such as books and cauldron into his room. The space occupied by these things is not small. Jon's room is very A "low wall" was quickly erected.

Of course, his Vine Wood wand was tucked inside the sleeve of his shirt, not mixed with those school supplies.

This is the most important step in his exploration of the magic world, and of course it cannot be mixed with those things.

"Don't you want to change the robe? We will go to my grandmother's house later."

Jon shook his head and declined Mother's suggestion, saying that this one is good, he I don't think the wizard robe is so convenient. The wide robe can hold more things, but it also limits the flexibility of movement to a certain extent. At least in his own home, Jon still prefers casual clothes.
