I can enter Hogwarts in the end of the world - Chapter 373

c370 Long lost candy store

After leaving the Ministry of Magic, Ian did not return to Hogwarts immediately, but chose to walk alone on the streets of London.

Perhaps because Christmas is approaching, the shops, elegantly decorated cafes, and fast food restaurants lining both sides of the road are now decorated with colorful Christmas decorations.

The people coming and going, street artists, and even homeless beggars all have smiles on their faces, as if they are looking forward to the coming Christmas.

People have done research a long time ago. In Europe, if you don’t like Halloween, your neighbors will think you are unique. But if you don’t like Christmas… they’ll actually make an appointment with a psychiatrist for you.

Of course, nothing is absolute.

In the endless flow of streets, there are also pedestrians with simple clothes and sad faces. Their presence forms a sharp contrast with these glamorous crowds.

Countless faces of all kinds intertwined together to form a vivid and vivid picture.

“No one is immune to the torrent of the times… Alas!”

After sighing, Ian turned and left.

No way, he always feels a little inexplicably sad when he stays here. No one knows whether this Christmas will be the last Christmas on the streets of London.

…

Diagon Alley.

As the face of the magical world of the British Isles, it is also the most prosperous commercial street in England.

Now, in an era when confidentiality laws are gradually disappearing, Diagon Alley has exploded with unprecedented commercial potential.

It’s like an old and weak camel that has a young heart at this moment, as if it can stand up again and cross the desert, traveling thousands of miles under the scorching sun.

Ian walked on the main street of Diagon Alley, and the joyful and lively atmosphere here dispelled a little bit of the gloom in his heart.

Ever since the witch-hunting movement in the Middle Ages, wizards have lived like rats in the sewer, hiding from place to place.

Now, although some things have not been fully disclosed, wizards are not stupid. With the connivance of the Ministry of Magic of various countries, they finally dare to gradually live in the sun, and they are even more enthusiastic at this moment.

A few minutes later.

Ian came to a shop. The familiar name on the signboard and the moving organ at the door made him feel the warmth he had not seen for a long time.

Sweet.Memory.——Sweet Memory Candy Shop.

After being out of business for more than a year, Ian returned to his candy store for the first time, and Penello did not disappoint him. From the crowds coming in and out of the store, it can be seen that the store is operating with care.

It’s not because he made a lot of money following Malfoy that he despised the three melons and two dates in the candy store.

Regardless of whether he makes money or not, this attitude alone has already made him feel good.

Ian stood at the door, waiting for the last customer in the store to leave before he pushed the door open.

“Ding ding~”

Hearing the bell hanging on the door ring, Penello put a skillful smile on his face.

However, after seeing the person clearly, the smile that had just risen disappeared instantly and was replaced by a pitiful expression.

“Dear Master Titus, are you here to inspect this year’s harvest?”

As if to prove the authenticity, Penello picked up the money jar on the side and shook it vigorously.

“Look… I don’t even make much money. I can’t afford this year’s rent. What should I do?”

In fact, Ian also guessed that he would be ridiculed, but he did not expect that Penello would perform this role.

“Can’t pay the rent? Well, sell it to Knockturn Alley to pay off the debt.”

Since the other party wanted to play, Ian would mind cooperating to complete the scene.

Hearing this, Penello couldn’t help rolling his eyes, “Be cruel, you unscrupulous noble master, sell me, who will work for you in the future!”

“You can rest assured on this. If I rent out the shop, I won’t starve to death.”

…

The perfect joke made the two of them feel like they were back in Hogwarts again.

After a while, Ian sat on the sofa, looked at Penelo who was busy in the store, and asked:

“By the way, don’t forget that summer vacation questionnaire.”

Penello didn’t know about the fungus, but Ian believed that with his intelligence, he would be able to see the clues.

Sure enough, when Penello heard Ian mention the adjustment table, he said seriously:

“I have already brought my mother to London, and she still doesn’t want to leave her old house in the country. It really took a lot of effort to convince her.”

It seems that there are really many smart people. In fact, Ian thought at first that if Penelo couldn’t understand, he would explain it. After all, Penelo, who grew up in a single-parent family, should care more about his mother.

However, at present, it seems that his idea is redundant.

“That’s good! It’s the right thing to get to London. Let’s prepare for many things in advance.”

“Thank you, Ian!” Penello responded and thanked him.

No one is stupid, but there are some things that don’t need to be said clearly. Penello knew the purpose of the questionnaire when Ian mentioned it.

Ian waved his hand and said nonchalantly: “You’re welcome, we are friends, aren’t we?”

“Friends?” Penello’s tone was a little incomprehensible. When Ian noticed it, she quickly smiled and said: “Not just a friend, you are also my boss.”

Hearing this, Ian also breathed a sigh of relief. To be honest, he didn’t want the friendship to change. After all, a person’s feelings are limited. If you divide one part, you will lose one. It is unfair to everyone.

…

Time flies by.

Ian stayed in the candy store until the evening. While chatting with Penello, he learned that the other party was still staying at the Leaky Cauldron, so he opened the door to the second floor.

After a brief tidying up and taking away some personal belongings, the second floor of the candy store was regarded as a benefit for Penello’s employees.

You must know that the sudden increase in the number of people in Diagon Alley has not only brought about business prosperity, but also a corresponding increase in prices.

The first one to bear the brunt is Old Tom’s Leaky Cauldron. If you want to stay now, you don’t just have to pay two people. It not only depends on whether the room is available, but also the boss’s face.

Night falls.

After returning to Hogwarts, Ian did not go back to his dormitory immediately, but came outside the castle, intending to find a suitable place next to Hagrid’s hut to set up a workplace where he would return to the school after graduation.

Gamekeeper, what a job. Not only can he fish blatantly, but he can also meet Hermione from time to time.

As for Hagrid, let him concentrate on being a professor.

Seeing that the lights were still on in Hagrid’s hut, Ian reached into his dragon hide pocket and took out a bottle of Ogden’s aged fire whiskey.

Ian planned to explore the bottom first. To put it bluntly, he was just doing it just for fun.

Of course, if Hagrid is unwilling, he really can’t force this matter. At worst, he can change his position. The effect will be the same in Mrs. Pince’s library.
