The Transfiguration professor at Hogwarts is always up for business

0126 Owl



0126 Owl

In the end, the little witch's plan to pick up the leak still failed.

But it is not all fruitless, at least more than a dozen books on magic theory and spells have been added to the handbag.

If you understand them thoroughly, you can make the girl's foundation more solid.

Although she didn't find any valuable ancient books, even her fluffy hair couldn't hide the smile on Hermione's face when she came out of the shop.

"Second Grade Metamorphosis"

Author: Agnas A. Scamander

Editing/Proofreading: Hermione J. Granger

She never thought that her name could also appear on the cover.

Even if it is not in the author column, it is enough to make girls who have been with books all year round cheer.

That's great!

ヾ(^Д^*)/

Hermione bowed her head, basking in the joy of being on the cover.

But in Diagon Alley, where stalls are not standardized, it is not a good idea to walk with your head down.

"ah!"

"Bang!"

The girl hurriedly helped up the fallen cage, only to find that the barn owl inside was motionless when she regained her senses.

The girl was terrified, and looked behind for help.

"It's fine."

Ernie magically returns the owl to the bar and inserts the fallen feathers back into place.

"It's just a model, don't worry about it."

The girl breathed a sigh of relief, and just as she was about to say something, she heard a "squeak", and the old wooden door was pushed open from the inside.

A thin wizard leaned out from the cage, looking at Hermione, who was still holding on to the cage, and Ernie, who was on the side.

"Kids, what happened?"

Hermione subconsciously took a step back and grabbed Ernie's sleeve.

The appearance of the wizard was not vicious. Although the extremely curved hooked nose made him look a bit sinister, it was not enough to scare the girl.

But if it is paired with two big round eyes, it will be a piece of yellow, except for the eyes with a small black spot in the center...

If he is an employee in a Muggle haunted house, the boss will probably have to pay a lot of extra medical expenses.

But even though knocking over the cage was an accident, it was one of Ernie's planned stops.

"Mr. Orr, we want to buy an owl."

Anil pulled the girl, "I remember that you don't have your own owl yet, and you just came to choose one today, and it will be a gift for the editor."

"Oh, it's Ernie. I'm sorry, but it's too bright outside for me to see."

While speaking, Orr simply closed his eyes and motioned for them to come in.

"Come on, the owls inside can be chosen at will, but remember to close the door when you come in."

Following the wizard's back, he greeted the girl, and Aini also walked towards the shop.

"Come in, Mr. Orr is actually a very kind person."

Hermione looked around, and like most of the shops in Diagon Alley, this shop also looked very old.

Cough, to be precise, it is a bit worn out.

Even in bright sunlight, it looks a bit shady.

After entering the door, the feeling of lack of light is more obvious.

The room was dark and gloomy, and the species of owl in the cage could barely be discerned.

"Choose whatever you want. Since it was brought by Aini, you can take the one you like directly."

The little witch was startled again by the voice behind her. It turned out that Al was standing aside after entering the door.

The light was too dim for her to notice.

"Thank you, Mr. Orr, could you draw the curtain a little? I can't see very well."

Hermione was pretty sure her eyesight was fine, but the shop was so dark she couldn't even tell the color of an owl's fur.

"Of course, if there are guests, it should be brighter."

The wizard opened the curtains a little, and there wasn't much sunlight coming in, but it made the store look a lot brighter.

Hermione complained secretly in her heart, your store is used to remind customers how precious light is!

"But please hurry up a little bit."

Orr looked at the restless owls and urged, "These little guys don't like strong light."

"Okay. As soon as I can."

Hearing this, the girl remembered what was in the book.

Most owls have strong night vision, but when the light reaches a certain intensity, they will be like humans in the dark, unable to see clearly.

Although owls in the wizarding world are more resistant to strong light, it is almost 11 o'clock now, and too strong light will still make them feel uncomfortable.

With the added light, rows of owl cages appeared in Hermione's field of vision.

On her left hand side there is a small croaking owl, which looks very cute.

But Hermione's expectation for the owl is that besides delivering letters, it can go to the bookstore to help her bring back spiritual food at any time.

Looking at the size of Mingjiaoxiao, and then comparing those big tomes in her mind, the girl decided to pick a bigger one.

The girls looked over one by one, Hui Linxiao, Cang Xiao, Wu Linxiao...

In the end, Hermione wavered between the two owls, and had to turn her eyes to Ernie for help.

The final shortlist is a big eagle owl, which is very suitable for the needs of girls' air transport aircraft.

The other is a snowy owl of the same style as my friend Harry. It is only slightly smaller than the eagle owl. If you count the extra points for its appearance, it is not impossible to consider.

"If you also want to use them to send letters during the summer vacation, I suggest you choose eagle owls."

Aini pointed to the big man at the side. From Hermione's eyes, it could be seen that what the girl wanted was not a pet that could be masturbated, but a practical tool owl.

"If you live in the Muggle world, it's better to move around at night more secretly, and this will make the snowy owl uncomfortable."

Aini nodded Snowy Owl's little head. After listening to what he said just now, this guy was a little unconvinced.

"Although most owls are nocturnal, what few people pay attention to is that the snowy owl is a rare diurnal creature among owls, and being active at night will make them uncomfortable."

Aini talked eloquently, talking about the habits of animals, his family learned it well.

"Okay, then I'll choose this one."

The girl picked up the eagle owl's cage and asked Orr, "Sir, what's its name?"

"You'd better give it a name yourself, so that the owl can adapt to the new life faster."

"Thank you, Mr. Orr."

The little witch thanked the store manager for her guidance, and lifted the cage up.

One person and one eagle looked at each other, "Shalin, I'll take you home in a while."

Although it is positioned as a tool eagle, it can be used as a girl's first magic pet, and the little girl is still very fond of it.

Since the items for the start of school have not been fully prepared, Hermione temporarily put Saileen in Ani's pocket, which is much better than the environment in her own handbag.

"Mr. Orr, how much is this eagle owl?"

The wizard waved his hand, "No, it's just a greeting."

"Hey, don't compete with me for the chance to give gifts." Aini took out 10 Galleons and put them on the table, and walked out with Hermione.

"I'll take her to buy other things first, goodbye, Al."

"Goodbye, Mr. Orr."

After staying in the store for a while, the girl felt that she had never been so eager for sunshine like now.

But after leaving the owl shop, Hermione only felt that the sun was extremely glaring.

Aini sighed inwardly watching Hermione's reaction, so when the outside world is full of sunshine, it's best not to hide yourself in a dark corner.

Otherwise, if you stay in the dark for a long time, maybe the beauty you once pursued will become the source of discomfort.
