MTL - Harry Potter and the Badger Who Can’t Magic-Chapter 13 school day

Profiteer! Absolute profiteer!

Mr. Burginbock pretended not to see Auston's malicious eyes, and his five fingers remained unchanged.

This short sword is more than half shorter than the sword just now, but it is only ten Galleons cheaper. This makes Auston feel bad!

"Thirty, no more" Auston bargained.

"Fifty, not one less." Mr. Borgin didn't back down.

"Thirty-five, I don't want one more." Auston gritted his teeth and added five more Galleons.

"Fifty is already my purchase price, and it can't be any lower." Mr. Borgin was still talking nonsense with his eyes open.

"Forty, it's only ten Galleons cheaper, and I'll come here often in the future." Auston took out the common bargaining method in his previous life.

Mr. Borgin saw that it was really hard to fool the shrewd little boy in front of him, and finally let go, "Well, let's take a step back, forty-five Galleons, and give this to you, don't underestimate it, at least it's worth it Five Galleons!"

He shoved a pitch-black ball from the bag into Auston's hands, even though he didn't even know what the ball was. However, when he received the goods from an Indian supplier, the price was raised too high, and he was so angry that he came back from the table, and he kept throwing it in this big bag for several years. He once specially asked his younger brother, who specializes in black magic items, to identify it, and the reply he got was that he brought ordinary stones that people used to decorate, and his brother laughed at him for many years.

Auston walked out of Boginbok's store with a dagger shorter than his wand in one hand, and a black stone that couldn't be seen for what purpose in the other. He still deeply felt that he was deceived, and now he can't identify whether this fairy dagger is real, but the forty-five Galleons on him can never be found again.

He threw the things in his hands into the dragonskin bag, and he was not in the mood to stroll any further. He took out his broom and rode on it, and flew away with a swish.

After landing in the garden, he put away his broom. He walked lightly into the living room. I first went to my parents' bedroom to take a look, and after making sure they were not there, I hurried to my room. He opened the big box in the room that he was going to hold the luggage in, and threw the school supplies in the dragon skin bag. of a loud bang.

Sissi appeared at the door of the room at some point, staring at Auston with an expression of 'I knew you did something bad'.

"Why did you buy a bunch of junk and come back? Did you hide the extra money secretly!" Qian Qian questioned him, and the little girl's eyes rolled to the sky "Humph! Just wait and see! I'm going to tell mom! "

Auston hurriedly pulled her back, put his index finger to his mouth and made a silent gesture, he whispered flatteringly

"If you help me keep it a secret, I'll give you some fun stuff, which I just bought from Diagon Alley!"

The fickle little girl immediately changed her face, and after receiving a bunch of small toys and various snacks that Auston bought from the joke shop, the grievances between them for a few days disappeared immediately.

Auston also took advantage of her good mood and asked her for two quills, a stack of parchment and a bottle of ink, which he forgot to buy in Diagon Alley just now.

He went to his mother's room to get a bunch of small medicine bottles, and took out the small astronomical telescope in the drawer and put it in the box together. Afterwards, lock the box carefully, lest my mother accidentally find the pile of junk he bought from the second-hand store.

A few days later, he also said goodbye to several close friends one by one. Michael, the captain of the school's boxing team, complained about how he suddenly changed schools, leaving another main force on the team. Auston, the pseudo-main force, can only laugh. After all, his thin and small body is there. In addition to his quick reaction, he is not much different from the ordinary classmates in the class, not as strong as the other members of the team. He proposed to let his good friend Justin take his place next semester, but the captain just twitched the corners of his mouth and did not speak.

Time waits for no one, life always goes by so fast. On September 1st, the Browns got up early, and Sissi was so excited that she almost stayed up all night, knocking on Auston's door every two minutes to harass him. Even early in the morning she was full of energy. And Auston was miserable. He had to pour a cup from the coffee pot his father had just made and drink it with his nose in order to stay awake.

This time, Mr. Brown took them to the normal way of travel—by train.

asked Auston, who was carrying a fluffy suitcase while he was on the train.

"Os, you really don't plan to have a pet, you see, Sissy has an owl."

There was a cage on Sissi's big box, and the brown owl was sleeping soundly without any image. Auston guessed that it must be because Sissi was crazy excited last night and couldn't sleep well.

He smiled and shook his head at Mr. Brown

"It doesn't matter, Dad, there are public owls at Hogwarts, I can use them to send letters to you, and if you want to write to me, you can send them directly to Sissy, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Anyway, we are always together ."

Mr. Brown glanced at his son worriedly, but didn't say what he wanted to say. Just nodded and stopped talking.

The family arrived at King's Cross Station, between platforms 9 and 10, and curious baby Sissi took the ticket and asked Mrs. Brown.

"Mom, the ticket says it's platform nine and three-quarters. Where can we find that platform?"

Mrs. Brown bent down and pointed to the wicket between the ninth and tenth platforms to tell her where to go directly.

The siblings dragged their boxes to the railing between the ninth and tenth platforms to kiss the Browns goodbye. Mrs. Brown had tears in her eyes. She had never let her children go this far, and she could not see each other for months. Qian Qian was finally less excited, and her eyes were red.

Auston carried Sissi's box on top of his box and pushed it hard. Sissi only carried a birdcage and followed her brother through the railing between the ninth and tenth platforms.

A dark red steam engine train stopped at the platform marked nine and three quarters. The sign on the train reads: Hogwarts Express, eleven o'clock.

They came early, and there were only a few parents who said goodbye to their children through the car window. Auston laboriously carried the two boxes into the car, and found an empty compartment at the rear of the car. He instructed Sissy to use the Floating Charm to put the luggage on the shelf.

After a long wait, Auston slept intermittently in the cubicle. Sissy sat next to him without disturbing him. She took out a stone and tried Auston to teach her something new these days. The spell that makes it float, and then turns it into something else.

Auston fell asleep comfortably until a dark-haired boy opened the compartment door...
