Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying

Chapter 319 The Monster Book of Monsters

Compared to the ever-changing Muggle cities, the changes in the magic world always seem particularly slow.

In recent years, except for the Aslan Magic Workshop, which produces something new every year and triggers new trends, the other trends in Diagon Alley have hardly changed, as if they are all NPCs that refresh at a fixed point.

Therefore, Wade's process is almost the same as every time in the past, going to the robe shop to order new robes, going to the potion shop to replenish materials, and going to the bookstore to buy books.

In the window of the bookstore, a large iron cage contains hundreds of "Monster Books of Monsters", in which they are fiercely biting and fighting each other, just like a group of crabs with bared teeth and claws.

——Who has seen a group fight of books?

Pieces of paper flew everywhere, and hoarse roars came one after another, but the wizards seemed to be accustomed to it and walked past without looking sideways.

But Wade and Harry, although they already had the book given by Hagrid, still stopped to watch.

At this time, a student was buying books with a list of books. The bookstore manager was wearing thick gloves and holding a cane full of scars. He was slapping it like driving away a group of vicious dogs snatching food, and at the same time he was roaring.

While the monster books were retreating and avoiding, the manager quickly grabbed the book closest to him.

When he retracted his hand, a book next to him bounced up without warning, and the sharp teeth between the pages opened and bit the manager's arm!

"Be careful!"

As Harry shouted, his wand shook subconsciously, and a red light hit the monster book, making it fly backwards with a bang.

Harry himself was stunned, staring at the flying book, and then looking at his wand.

While he was in a daze, the manager quickly retracted his hand and breathed a sigh of relief. Before he could thank him, he saw another little wizard also draw out his wand and wave it——

All the monster books stopped instantly, then fell to the ground with a clatter, and then were tied up one by one by the ropes that appeared out of thin air, and finally piled up neatly.

The monster books were still struggling and shaking, and the covers were slapping, but they could no longer bite people or run around.

The manager was stunned again. He looked at the crazy books that finally calmed down, and then looked at the two little wizards who were obviously not very old. His expression was dull and he couldn't speak for a long time.

"Wade, Harry!"

The student who bought the books came out of the bookstore, and it turned out to be Rolf Scamander.

He said happily: "You are here to buy books too! I didn't expect to meet you here!"

"Hi, Rolf." Wade asked curiously: "You are here to buy "The Monster Book of Monsters" too?"

"Yes." Rolf said: "I didn't expect that there was no such book on my bookshelf - in fact, there were two copies originally, but later when they were fighting, they accidentally rushed into the fireplace. Grandpa was very sad and didn't buy new ones."

"Is that so..."

Wade thought: ...Scamander is not raising these books as special magical creatures?

"Here, your book."

At this time, the manager also came to his senses, tied up the monster book he had finally snatched, and handed it to Rolf.

"Thank you."

Rolf paid the money and went to buy other things. He waved goodbye with the book in his hand.

"Did you see that, Wade?"

It was only then that Harry suppressed his excitement, with a look of surprise and doubt on his face, and said: "I just... just for a moment... suddenly..."

"Congratulations." Wade smiled with his eyes bent: "The first time I used a silent spell."

Harry got the confirmation and immediately smiled with pure joy.

He turned to find Sirius and Lupin to share his joy, but saw only Sirius next to him.

The man with a slightly haggard look didn't pay much attention to them. He stared at everyone passing by with his searchlight-like eyes, especially those children with pet mice. Sirius's eyes could scare them to tears.

Seeing this, Harry sighed slightly, and the joy in his heart suddenly became less intense.

He once again realized that although he was James Potter's son, Sirius felt much more pain than him.

Harry never had it, so he wouldn't be so heartbroken.

"Um... are you from Hogwarts too? Come to buy books?"

The manager observed for a while, walked over and said gratefully: "Thank you for your help just now. What grade are you in? Let me see the book list."

Harry hurriedly gave him the book list and said at the same time: "Third grade."     "Okay, wait a moment."

The manager looked down at his book list and quickly took out a few books from the pile of books next to him and packed them.

"Wait, we already have "The Monster Book of Monsters"!" Harry said.

"Oh..." The manager seemed to put the monster book back with some regret, and then quickly packed it.

Then he saw Wade's book list and raised his eyebrows in surprise: "You took all the courses? This is not easy."

Wade nodded: "I chose it after careful consideration."

"Okay, I knew..." The manager said enviously: "Not everyone can calm more than a hundred monster books in one go."

Wade smiled and said nothing.

In fact, the manager who runs a magic bookstore can't even do this, and has to rely on physical means to prevent being bitten, which makes Wade quite surprised.

It can be seen that not everyone who manages books can draw enough nutrients from books wisely.

Vader usually comes into contact with the best among wizards. Seeing this manager made Vader realize that many adult wizards will not gradually improve their magic skills after graduation, but will degrade to a level that is worse than that of school students. .

For example, this manager may have forgotten most of the spells and knowledge about potions, herbal medicine, astronomy, history, etc. in his boring work day after day, except for the spells related to running a bookstore. .

In front of him, any modest words Vader said seemed to be mocking.

Not long after, the manager also sorted out Wade's textbooks, and when it came time to settle the accounts, he even gave them a 50% discount.

The two came out with their books, but there was still no sign of Lu Ping.

"Where did Remus go?" Harry couldn't help but ask.

"He seemed to have seen an acquaintance and came back soon." Sirius said.

"Remus, something seems to have happened to Will."

The thin blond girl said sadly: "I couldn't contact him. I went to his house and couldn't find any trace... The workshop said that he never went to work and had been fired... He has never been like this. , I know, he must, must be..."

The girl whimpered, covering her face and sobbing softly.

Lupine was speechless for a moment.

He knew that there were many reasons why a werewolf disappeared from this world. Even reporting it to the Ministry of Magic would be of little help.

Many people feel that werewolves do not deserve to live.

"Claire, do you have any clues about his disappearance?" Lupine was silent for a moment and asked without any hope.

But Claire said: "Yes, some... Before he disappeared, he just accepted a commission... I heard him say that this kind of thing is dangerous. I always advised him not to go, and I also said that I could take his place... …But he didn’t agree…”

"What commission?" Lu Ping asked.

"I don't know...he didn't tell me anything..."

Claire said sadly: "But I think the person who entrusted him with the task should be related to Hogwarts..."

"Hogwarts?" Lupine was stunned and asked, "How do you know?"

"Not long ago, didn't Hogwarts kill a basilisk? Students were also allowed to visit the snake's slough..."

Claire wiped her tears and said.

"That's right," said Lupine.

Claire said: "My sense of smell is different from ordinary people. Even if several days have passed, even if I have taken a shower, I can still smell the fishy smell of the basilisk. And that day...I came from the place where I found Will. People can also smell that smell..."

Something's going on tonight, only one update.
